26、r sea life. 1 One is the simple fact that as water gets warmer，it can hold less dissolved(溶解的)oxygen.The other reason is less obvious.The entire ocean gets its oxygen from the surfaceeither from the atmosphere，or from photosynthesizing algae floating at the top of the sea. 2 Global warming is expect

27、ed to reduce the mixing of the ocean by making surface seawater lighter.Thats because in a warmer world we can expect more rainfall and more melting(融化)of glaciers，icebergs，and ice sheets. 3 The extra heat from the warming atmosphere will also make surface water expand and thus make it lighter still

28、. 4 Instead，more of the oxygen will remain near the surface，where it will be used up by oxygenbreathing organisms.A lowoxygen ocean may become an inescapable feature of our planet.A team of Danish researchers wondered how long oxygen levels would drop if we could somehow reduce our carbon dioxide em

29、issions to zero by 2100.They determined that over the next few thousand years oxygen levels would continue to fall，until they declined by 30 percent.The oxygen would slowly return to the oceans，but even 100，000 years from now they will not have fully recovered. 5 AIts not known why the oxygen level

30、of oceans has reduced.BScientists point to two reasons to expect a drop in ocean oxygen.CFresh waters inpouring will make the water at the oceans surface lighter.DThe oxygen then spreads to the deep ocean as the surface water slowly sinks.EGlobal warming has caused the reduction of the oxygen conten

31、t of oceans worldwide.FThe light surface water will be less likely to sink so the deep ocean will get less oxygen.GIf they are right，we have every reason to worry about the major effect it has on sea life.【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章简要介绍了海水中氧气含量主要原因及其可能对海洋生物带来的长期的影响。1B从文章篇章结构分析，本空为段落主旨句。本段介绍了全球变暖使海洋含氧量降低的原因，并且“O

32、ne”“The other reason”与B项中的“two reasons”相呼应，故选B。2D根据段落主旨和空前的“The entire ocean gets its oxygen from the surface.at the top of the sea.”可知，此处是通过说明海洋中氧气的来源与循环来解释海洋含氧量下降的原因的，故D项“然后，随着表层海水的慢慢下沉，氧气扩散至海洋深处”符合语境。3C根据空前的内容和常识可知，雨水和冰川、冰山及冰原融水都属于淡水，海洋中的水是咸水，而淡水的密度比咸水的小，因此淡水的注入会使海洋表面的水变得更轻。故C项符合语境。C项中的“make the

33、water.lighter”与下文中的“make it lighter”的对应关系亦是提示。4F根据空前的“The extra heat from the warming atmosphere will .”和空后的“Instead，more of the oxygen will remain.”可知，F项与空前的句子的句式相同，且与空后的句子的内容存在语意上的转折关系，故F项符合语境。5GG项中的“they”与上文中的“A team of Danish researchers”相呼应，且上文讲到即使我们把二氧化碳的排放降低到零，海洋含氧量也需要很长时间才能恢复，其对海洋生物造成的影响将是长期

34、的，故G项“如果他们是对的，那么我们完全有理由对它对海洋生物的重大影响感到担忧”符合语境。 四、短文改错Dear Lisa，Im glad to receive your letter asked about the present holiday life of Chinese students.

38、e our hometown a lot more beautiful. We find pleasure in these activities.Yours，Li Ming第一处：askedasking。考查非谓语动词。我很高兴收到你询问中国学生目前的假日生活的来信。ask和其逻辑主语letter之间是主动关系，故应用现在分词作定语。第二处：taketakes。考查主谓一致。学习和娱乐仍然占据了我们大部分的时间。此处是together with连接的名词在句中作主语，谓语动词应与句子原来的主语Learning保持一致，即应用第三人称单数，故改为takes。第三处：thatwhich。考查定语

39、从句。此外，我们经常帮助我们的父母做家务或者干农活，这使我们意识到他们每天工作得多努力。分析句子结构可知，空处在此引导非限制性定语从句，指代前面的整个句子，故用which。注意：that不能引导非限制性定语从句。第四处：wethey。考查代词。根据语境可知，此处指代的是上文中的“our parents”，故应用they。第五处：在active前加an。考查冠词。同时，我们积极参加社会活动，比如志愿工作。take an active part in为习惯用法，表示“积极参加”。第六处：wentgo。考查时态。我们去街上收集垃圾或者去医院安慰生病的孩子们。全文的基本时态是一般现在时，故此处应用一般现在时。第七处：rubbishesrubbish。考查名词。rubbish表示“垃圾”，是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故改为rubbish。第八处：orand。考查连词。由语境可知，此处表示并列的顺承关系，故用and表示“和，与”。or表示选择关系，意为“或，或者”。第九处：去掉of。考查固定搭配。此处指使我们的家乡变得更加美丽。根据句中的“more”可知，此处修饰比较级，故应用a lot。a lot of表示“许多”，修饰名词。第十处：greatlygreat。考查副词。在这些活动中，我们发现了极大的乐趣。此处修饰名词pleasure，故应用形容词。
