42、years scientists have been curious about that fish.How does it live where most fish would freeze to death?It must have some secrets.The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow.Now it seems we have an answer.Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching t

43、he fish.Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point.The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it.The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05.That small difference is en

44、ough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.The scientists next research job was clear:Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing.Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein (蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish.When it wa

45、s removed,the blood froze at seawater temperature.When it was put back,the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein.It has many small sugar molecules (分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule.Because

46、of its sugar content,it is called a glycoprotein.So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍一种生活在南极的鱼,叫作南极鳕。29.What is the text mainly about?A.The ice shelf around Antarctica.B.Protection of the Antarctic cod.C.The terrible conditions in Antarctic.D.A special fish

50、os brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurleys pictures would be outstandingundoubtedly first-rate photo-journalismif they had been made last week.In fact,they were shot from 1914 through 1916,most of them after a disastrous shipwreck (海难),by a cameraman who had no reasonable

51、expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored in an ice chest,under freezing water,in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance,a small,tight,Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists,27 men in all,to the

52、southernmost shore of Antarcticas Weddell Sea.From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled (雪橇) across the continent.The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with hi

53、s four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance,adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort.Scotts last journey,completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger,caught the worlds imagination,and a

54、 film made in his honor drew crowds.Shackleton,a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908,started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley,a confident and gifted Australian photographer who kn

55、ew the Antarctic,was hired to make the images,most of which have never before been published.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间,一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难,其中一个摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片,并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。33.What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A.They were made last week.B.T

56、hey showed undersea scenery.C.They were found by a cameraman.D.They recorded a disastrous adventure.答案D解析细节理解题。由题干中的“the photos taken by Hurley”定位到文章第二段开头。该段说这些照片即使是上个星期拍的也堪称佳作,故A项错误;该段中还说照片是在一次海难之后拍的,故D项正确;文章没有说拍摄的是海底景观,故B项错误;拍摄者是摄影师,但没有说是一名摄影师发现了这些照片,故C项错误。34.Who reached the South Pole first accor

57、ding to the text?A.Frank Hurley.B.Ernest Shackleton.C.Robert Falcon Scott.D.Caroline Alexander.答案C解析推理判断题。由题干中的“reached the South Pole first”这条信息定位到第三段。被发现的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert Falcon Scott船长先前的探险更大的收获,该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断Robert Falcon Scott是最先到达南极的人,故选C项。35.What does Alexander think was the purpo

58、se of the 1914 voyage?A.Artistic creation.B.Scientific research.C.Money making.D.Treasure hunting.答案C解析细节理解题。题干的Alexander在最后一段出现,the 1914 voyage指本文谈到的Endurance这艘船的探险。该段开头说,这个作家在她的小说The Endurance中说,在那时,探险就已经是纯商业活动(a thoroughly commercial effort)了,因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(money making),故选C项。A项“艺术创作”、B项“科学调研”和D

59、项“寻宝”在文中均未体现。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Would you know what to do if a fire started in your home?Take the time now to review the following safety tips,and your family will be prepared in time of a fire in your home:36An escape plan can help every member of a f

60、amily get out of a burning house.The idea is to get outside quickly and safely.37 So it is important to learn and remember the different ways out of your home.Stay lowIf you can see smoke in the house,stay low to the ground as you make your way to the exit.38 You will breathe less smoke if you stay

61、to the ground.Smoke naturally rises,so if there is smoke while you are using your escape route,staying low means you can crawl (爬) under most of it.What if you cant get out right away?If you cant get out fast because fire or smoke is stopping an escape route,you will want to yell for help.You can do

62、 this from an open window or call 911 if you have a phone with you.39 Then,firefighters will have a hard time finding you.The sooner they find you,the sooner you can get out.If your clothes catch fire,what should you do?Your clothes could catch fire during a fire or by accident if you step too close

63、 to a candle.If this happens,dont run!Instead,stop,drop to the ground,cover your face with your hands,and roll.This will cut off the air and put out the flames.40A.Know your way outB.Preventing fires is in the first place!C.An easy way to remember this is:Stop,drop,and roll!D.Smoke from a fire can m

64、ake it hard to see where things are.E.Even if you are scared,never hide under the bed or in a closet.F.They will help prepare you for what you need to do in case of a fire.G.In a fire,smoke and poisonous (有毒的) air hurt more people than the actual flames (火焰) do.答案与解析【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,说明在发生火灾时如何逃生。36.A根

65、据本段最后的“the different ways out of your home”可以推断,A项最符合题意。37.D因为火灾发生后浓烟让人们看不清路,所以提前了解出路很重要。38.G根据后文的“You will breathe less smoke if you stay to the ground.”可知,放低身体可以少吸入烟雾,因此上文会提到烟雾。七个选项中只有G项提到了这一点。39.E根据后文的“Then,firefighters will have a hard time finding you.”可知,如果你藏错了地方,消防员可能很难找到你。故选E项。40.C根据上文的“stop

66、,drop to the ground,cover your face with your hands,and roll”可知选C项。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Bobby,a poor guy was famous for his tries to climb the big snowy mountain.He had tried at least 30 times,but had always 41.Every time,he began the

70、,in the form of the snow-covered mountain top.It was made in such a way that you could only 50 it if you looked upwards.Peeper had understood that whenever Bobby lost sight of his 51,he would similarly lose sight of his dream,and his 52 to continue would weaken.Bobby realized that the only difficult

71、y of reaching the top had been his own 53.When he could no longer see the top of the mountain,the problems 54.He thanked Peeper for using that little 55 to help him see that his aims were not impossible,and that they were still there,where they had always been. 【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一位登山者Bobby登山的故事。尽管B
