5、【小题 9】 _ throwing it into the river. During the Duanwu Festival, zong zi is eaten to symbolize（象征，表示） the rice offerings to Qu. And the dragon-boat races symbolize _【小题 10】 _ many attempts to rescue and recover Qus body. 答案： 【小题 1】 has been marked。由时间状语 for thousands of years可知，句子谓语动词应用现在完成进行时，表示端午节

6、一直以来都以吃粽子和赛龙珠的方式进行庆 祝，而且将来也会如此，故填 has been marked。 【小题 1】 situated。表示某地方位于何地时，用 be situated in /on, 句中“situated” 相当于定语从句， “which was situated” 。 【小题 1】 However。前后两句是转折关系，而空格前后都有标点，故应填副词 However。 【小题 1】 Realizing。因逻辑主语 Qu与 realize 是主动关系，故应填 Realizing。 【小题 1】 unab le。由 but可知，渔民未能救活他，故用 able相 反意思的 unab

7、le。 【小题 1】 who。引导定语从句并在从句中作主语，先行词是 The people of Chu，故应填 who。 【小题 1】 every。根据常识，是指 “每一 ”年。 【小题 1】 them。代替 the mourners，在句中作宾语，故应填 them。 【小题 1】 before。因 “将它裹好、绑好 ”应是在 “将粽子扔进河里 ”之前，才不会给河里的一种爬行动物偷吃，故应填介词 before。 【小题 1】 the。因 many / little / few 等词在后面有定语从句或不定式等成分修饰时，其前面 用 the表特指，故该处填 the。 完型填空 完形填空 (共 1

8、5小题；每小题 2分满分 30分 ) 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意然后从 115 各题所给的 A、 B、 C和 D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Shopping habits in the United States have changed greatly in the last quarter of the 20th century.

20、Microwaves may be great at warming up food, but what about warming people Using microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would save much of the energy wasted by heating walls and furniture. And despite popular ideas about microwaves, this technique would be safe, according to Charles R. Burlier

21、of the Microwave Research Center in Marlborough, New Hampshire. Low-power microwaves only penetrate (贯穿 ) the skin (low-power microwave penetration in a ham is about 0.2 inches, for example) and with no negative effects. To test this idea, Buffler subjected himself to microwaves in a special room us

22、ing a standard 500-watt, 2459 MHz magnetron (磁控管 ). He found that a person will start to feel warmth at about 20 kilowatts per square centimeter (mw. / sq. cm. ) ; a satisfactory feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50 mw. / sq. cm. By comparison, a person standing in noonday summer sun feels the

23、 amount of 85 mw. / sq. cm. And a frozen meat pie in your microwave oven receives about 1000 mw. / sq. cm. In houses of the future, each room could be provided with its own magnetron, says Buffler. When you stepped into the living room, for example, a motion detector (运动感应器 )would turn on the magnet

24、ron, filling the room with low-power microwaves. In the same way that a microwave oven heats up a hamburger, but not the plate its on, you would feel warmth from the microwaves without changing the temperature of your coffee table. (You could, however, make your favorite easy chair even more comfort

25、able by treating it with a radiation-absorbing chemical.) While it might be some time before homeowners are comfortable enough with the idea to set up whole-body microwave heaters in houses, Buffler says microwaves may attract livestock(家畜 ) farmers. Lambs that are born outdoors in winter, for examp

26、le, are frequently lost to cold. Microwaves could warm the lambs safely and quickly. 【小题 1】 Which of the following can tell the main idea of the passage A A new heating system. B A new microwave oven. C A popular technique. D The magnetron. 【小题 2】 According to Paragraph 2, which of the following doe

27、s not describe the characteristics of a microwave heater A It directly heats people in a room. B It heats walls and furniture in a room. C It is safe. D It saves energy 【小题 3】 The test conducted by Buffler shows that when a person feels comfortable warmth, he receives about _. A 20 mw. / sq. cm. B 4

28、0 mw. / sq. cm. C 60 mw. / sq. cm. D 85 mw. / sq. cm. 【小题 4】 According to Paragraph 4, which of the following fills the room with low-power microwaves A The magnetron. B The motion detector. C The microwave oven. D The radiation-absorbing chemical. 【小题 5】 Which of the following statements about micr

29、owave heaters would Buffler most probably agree with A Microwave heaters will soon be widely used by homeowners. B Microwave heaters sometimes make people feel uncomfortable. C Perhaps microwave heaters will be first used by livestock farmers, who wish to protect their lambs in winter. D Microwave h

30、eaters cannot be accepted by the public because they are somewhat unsafe. 答案：【小题 1】 A【小题 1】 B【小题 1】 B【小题 1】 A【小题 1】 C Everywhere man is altering the balance of nature He is facilitating the spread of plants and animals into new regions, sometimes deliberately, sometimes unconsciously He is covering

31、huge areas with new kinds of plants, or with houses, factories, slag-heaps and other products of his civilization He exterminates some species on a large scale, but favors the multiplication of others In brief, he has done more in five thousand years to alter the biological aspect of the planet than

32、 has nature in five million Many of these changes which he has brought about have had unforeseen consequences Who would have thought that the throwing away of a piece of Canadian waterweed would have caused half the waterways of Britain to be blocked for a decade, or that the provision of pot cacti

33、for lonely settlers wives would have led to Eastern Australian being overrun with forests of Prickly Pear Who would have prophesied that the cutting down of forests on the Adriatic coasts, or in parts of Central Africa, could have reduced the land to a semi desert, with the very soil washed away fro

34、m the bare rock Who would have thought that improved communications would have changed history by the spreading of disease-sleeping sickness into East Africa, measles into Oceania, very possibly malaria into ancient Greece These are spectacular examples; but examples on a smaller scale are everywher

35、e to be found We make a nature sanctuary for rare birds, prescribing absolute security for all species; and we may find that some common and hardy kind of bird multiplies beyond measure and ousts the rare kinds in which we were particularly interested We see, owing to some little change brought abou

36、t by civilization, the starling spread over the English country-side in hordes We improve the yielding capacities of our cattle; and find that now they exhaust the pastures which sufficed for less exigent stock 【小题 1】 The following examples except _ reflect man altering the balance of nature A man i

37、s covering huge areas with new kinds of plants B man is facilitating the spread of animals into new regions C man is killing some species on a large scale D man is getting to know the importance of keeping the balance of nature 【小题 2】 What had a piece of Canadian waterweed cause A Eastern Australian

38、 was overrun with forests B Half the waterways of Britain blocked for a decade C In parts of central Africa, the land reduced to a semi desert D Disease-sleeping has been caused 【小题 3】 What have spread diseases A Disease-sleeping sickness B Measles C Improved communications D Malaria 【小题 4】 We make

39、a nature sanctuary for rare birds but _. A some common and hardy kind of bird multiplies B rare kinds multiply C all bird multiply D no bird multiply 【小题 5】 The main idea of the passage is _ A that man is deliberately destroying the balance of nature B that man has foreseen the consequences of alter

40、ing the balance old nature C that improved communications have changed history D that man is altering the balance of nature 答案：【小题 1】 D【小题 1】 B【小题 1】 C【小题 1】 A【小题 1】 D The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attainin

41、g real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain. As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fe

42、ar the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment（承担的义务） , self - improvement. Ask a bachelor（单身汉） why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is

43、 afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three - day vacati

44、on. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild. Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the

45、 most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we

46、 now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all. 【小题 1】 According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _ . A he is reluctant to take on family responsibilities B he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single C

47、 he finds more fun in dating than in marriage D he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement 【小题 2】 Raising children, in the authors opinion is _ . A a moral duty B a thankless job C a rewarding task D a source of inevitable pain 【小题 3】 From the last paragraph, we learn that e

48、nvy sometimes stems from _ . A hatred B misunderstanding C prejudice D ignorance 【小题 4】 To understand what true happiness is one must _ . A have as much fun as possible during ones lifetime B make every effort to liberate oneself from pain C put up with pain under all circumstances D be able to distinguish happiness from fun 【小题 5】 What is the author trying to tell us A Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain B One must know how to attain happiness. C It is important to make commitments. D It is pain that leads to happines
