Although this is a good description for many deserts, Earths largest

16、 desert is actually a very cold place covered with ice: Antarctica.In order for an area to be considered a desert, it must receive very little rainfall. More specifically, it must receive an average of less than ten inches of precipitationwhich can be rain, sleet, hail, or snowon the ground every ye

17、ar. Antarctica, the coldest place on earth, has an average temperature that usually falls below the freezing point. And because cold air holds less moisture than warm air, the air in Antarctica does not hold much moisture at all. This is evident in the low precipitation statistics recorded for Antar

18、ctica. For example, the central part of Antarctica receives an average of less than two inches of snow every year. The coastline of Antarctica receives a little bit morebetween seven and eight inches a year. Because Antarctica gets so little precipitation every year, it is considered a desert.When p

19、recipitation falls in hot deserts, it quickly evaporates back into the atmosphere. The air over Antarctica is too cold to hold water vapor, so there is very little evaporation. Due to this low rate of evaporation, most of the snow that falls to the ground remains there permanently, eventually buildi

20、ng up into thick ice sheets. Any snow that does not freeze into ice sheets becomes caught up in the strong winds that constantly blow over Antarctica. These snow-filled winds can make it look as if it is snowing. Even though snowfall is very rare there, blizzards are actually very common on Antarcti

Low precipitation.（分数：3.00）A.B.C

23、.D.(4).Based on the information in the final paragraph, it can be understood that blizzards in Antarctica are mainly the result of _.A. strong windsB. large amounts of snowfallC. low amounts of precipitationD. freezing cold temperatures（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Student Volunteers

28、ws. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940,the world was amazed.Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years

29、 ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They di

30、d not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex.Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, w

31、hich easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside.Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To pre

32、vent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963,23 years after it was discovered.（分数：12.00）(1).Based on the passage, what is probably true about the south of France?A.

35、our(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Gold used in jewelry is mixed with harder metals to add strength and durability. The metals added can also be used to change golds color, giving it a fashionable rose or white tint, or to lighten or darken the natural yellow tone of pure gold. Mixtures like these, of less costly m

36、etals with more valuable ones, are called alloys. Copper and silver are the most common metals mixed with gold to make yellow gold jewelry. White gold is usually made with an alloy of gold and nickel.The measure of golds purity is called a karat. The higher the karat rating, the higher the amount of

37、 pure gold: 24 karat is pure gold, 18 karat is 75% pure gold, 14 karat is 58.5% pure gold, and 9 karat is 37.5% pure gold. All other things being equal, the higher the percentage of pure gold used in the alloy, the more valuable and expensive the jewelry will be.Gold jewelry pieces are usually stamp

38、ed with a marking to identify the karat amount. While gold that is 24K is too soft for jewelry, 18K, 14K and 9K gold are all appropriate for jewelry, and they all make pieces that look great and wear beautifully.（分数：12.00）(1).Which of the following statements best captures the main idea of this pass

39、age?A. Although gold is very valuable, it is also very expensive.B. Gold jewelry is stamped with its karat weight.C. Gold jewelry is made using alloys.D.

41、 and only D. , , and （分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the following statements best explains the relationship between gold and its karat rating?A. The lower the karat rating, the purer the gold.B. The higher the karat rating, the more expensive the gold.C. The higher the karat rating, the less valuable

42、 the mixture.D. The lower the karat rating, the purer the alloy.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.九、Passage Five(总题数：1，分数：12.00)It is bad to have food stuck between your teeth for long periods of time. This is because food attracts germs, germs produce acid, and acid hurts your teeth and gums. Flossing helps to remo

43、ve the food that gets stuck between your teeth. This explains why flossing helps to keep your mouth healthy, but some doctors say that flossing can be also good for your heart.It may seem strange that something you do for your teeth can have any effect on your heart. Doctors have come up with a few

44、ideas about how flossing works to keep your heart healthy. One idea is that the germs that hurt your teeth can leave the mouth and travel into your blood. Germs that get into the blood can then attack your heart. Another idea is based on the fact that when there are too many germs in your mouth, the

45、 body tries to fight against these germs. For some reason, the way the body fights these mouth germs may end up weakening the heart over time.Not every doctor agrees about these ideas. Some doctors think that the link between good flossing habits and good heart health is only a coincidence. A coinci

46、dence is the occurrence of two or more events at one time apparently by mere chance. The incidence of these events is completely random, as they do not admit of any reliable cause and effect relationship between them. For example, every time I wash my car, it rains. This does not mean that when I wa

47、sh my car, I somehow change the weather. This is only a coincidence.The theory that flossing your teeth helps to keep your heart healthy might not be true. But every doctor agrees that flossing is a great way to keep your teeth healthy. So even if flossing does not help your heart, it is sure to hel

48、p your teeth. This is enough of a reason for everyone to floss their teeth every day.（分数：12.00）(1).Flossing effectively helps to keep your mouth healthy by preventing _.A. germs from producing acidB. food from entering your bodyC. germs from entering into your bloodD. acid from contacting your teeth

49、 and gums（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).In paragraph 2, the author explains how having too many germs in your mouth can “end up weakening the heart.“ Using the passage as a guide, it can be understood that doctors are _.A. reluctant to hypothesize B. confident in their estimationsC. extremely knowledgeable D. uncertain but speculative（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Using information in paragraph 3 as a guide, which of the following is the best examp
