Instead, you might be a “super-taster”, a person with bitter genes (苦味基因).
103、 Those _61_ have the “bitter genes” are 2.6 times more likely _62_ (eat) fewer vegetables than others, according to a new study presented at the annual meeting of the American Heart Association.“We dont get the taste of food equally,” said professor Duffy, _63_ expert in the study of food taste. “It

105、he bitterness that some plants develop to keep animals from eating them.Food scientists are trying to develop ways to reduce the bitterness in veggies, in the hope that we can prevent super-tasters _68_ (reject) vegetables.

107、。作者主要介绍了科学家关于人类味觉的新研究成果:有的人有“苦味基因”,有的人则没有,这些人对食物的感觉不尽相同。现代人们通过多种方法使蔬菜食物更为可口。【61题详解】考查定语从句。句意:在美国心脏协会年会上公布的一项新研究显示,那些拥有“苦味基因”的人比其他人吃蔬菜的可能性要少2.6倍。who在此处引导定语从句修饰those并代替those作从句中的主语,故填who。【62题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:在美国心脏协会年会上公布的一项新研究显示,那些拥有“苦味基因”的人比其他人吃蔬菜的可能性要少2.6倍。该空前已有谓语动词are 并且根据be likely 后接不定式的结构。故此处填to eat
108、。【63题详解】考查冠词。句意:“我们对食物味道的感受不同,”食物味道研究专家达菲教授说。首次提到的单个人或物的前面常用冠词修饰,又因为expert是元音音素开头的单词。故填an。【64题详解】考查名词。句意:这可以解释我们在食物偏好上的一些差异。some of 之后要接可数名词的复数形式。故填differences。【65题详解】考查介词及固定搭配。句意:大约有一半的人能尝出苦和甜,所以我们对苦食物不是特别敏感。根据be sensitive to结构得知填介词to。故填to。【66题详解】考查谓语动词。句意:另外25%的人被称为“无味觉者”,对他们来说,苦涩的食物可能更甜一些。根据文章的时态
109、判断此处应用一般现在时,根据句意“另外百分之二十五的人被称之为”味盲者“可知此处还要使用被动语态,而且主语是复数意义。故此用are called。【67题详解】考查副词。句意:我们其余的人对一些植物为了不让动物吃而产生的苦味感到极度厌倦。副词修饰形容词,构成extremely tired,表示程度。故填extremely。【68题详解】考查非谓语动词及固定搭配。句意:食品科学家们正在研究减少蔬菜苦味的方法,希望我们能防止味觉超常者拒绝蔬菜。根据prevent sb. (from) doing sth.结构可以得知此处用动名词。故填rejecting。【69题详解】考查形容词的比较级。句意:事实
110、上,我们今天种植的一些蔬菜比以前甜得多。该空后有than,故此处要填比较级形式。故填sweeter。【70题详解】考查连词。句意:我们也可以尝试使用不同的烹饪方法,添加一些脂肪,甜味,强烈的味道,如大蒜或烘烤,以改善蔬菜的味道。本句中eitheror(或者或者)为固定搭配,表示roasting.与adding.两者二选一的选择关系。故填or。第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)71. 文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加: 在缺词处加一个漏字符号(),并在其下面写出该加的词。删除: 把多余

What unforgettable experience!【答案】1.getgot2.thatwhich3.callcalled4.suchso5.InOn6.they we7.spotspots8.latelater9.去掉but10.在unforgettable前加an【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和家人暑假去一个海滨城市度假的故事。【详解】1.考查一般过去时。句意:我们乘飞机到达那里。根据前一句谓语动词went 和时间状语“this summer holiday”可知,此处表示暑假的活动,所以本句谓
114、语动词需用一般过去时。故将get改为got。2.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:这是一个非常美丽又现代的城市,给我们留下了深刻的印象。这是一个非限制性定语从句,从句缺少主语,且先行词应该为前边整句话,所以关系词应用which,that不引导非限制定语从句。故将that改为which。3.考查过去分词作定语。句意:第一天,我们乘公共汽车去了一个叫海洋公园的地方。根据句意,这里的a place被叫作“Sea Park”,因此应该使用过去分词作定语。故将call改为called。4.考查副词。句意:这儿有如此多不同种类的鱼以至于我不能相信自己的眼睛。在sothat和suchthat句型中,名词前有man
115、y, much, few, little修饰时只能用 so.that,不能用 such .that。故将such改为so。 5.考查介词。句意:第二天,我们去游泳,我们都玩得很开心。具体到某一天要用介词on。故将In改为On。6.考查代词。句意:在接下来的两天里,我们去了一些旅游景点,购物和拍照。整篇文章都在将我和家人度假的情况,不是他们,故把they改成we。7.考查名词的数。句意:同上。spot是可数名词,其前面有some修饰,故应用spot的复数形式。故将spot改为spots。8.考查副词。句意:几天后,我们离开了那座城市。late表示“迟的;晚的”;later常与一个表示具体时间的名
116、词连用,指从过去或将来某一时间算起的“后”“过了”。根据句意,故将late改为later。9.考查连词。句意:虽然在回家的路上我们感觉累,但是我们对假期感觉很开心。although引导让步状语从句时,不能和连词but连用,故去掉but。10.考查不定冠词。句意:多么难忘的经历。分析句子结构可知,这是一个感叹句。experience是作“经历”讲时,是可数名词, 所以这里应加上定冠词,unforgettable是元音音素开头,故要用an。故在unforgettable前加an。第二节 书面表达(满分25分)72. 假如你是某中学学生会主席李华,你们学校正在开展主题为“垃圾分类”的活动,请你代表学
