18、经采取措施,展开行动,消灭蝗虫。电台也呼吁更多的人加入与蝗虫的战斗中来。1D推理判断题。根据第一段PartsofAfricaarecoveredbyadarkcloud.Butthisisnoraincloud.Itisalivingcloudmadeofbillionsoflocusts (蝗虫) thataretravellingacrossthecontinenteatingeverythingintheirpath.可知,非洲部分地区被乌云覆盖,但这并不是雨云,而是由数十亿只蝗虫组成的活云,它们正在穿越非洲大陆,吃掉路上的所有东西。由此可推知,这里是用乌云来形容蝗虫的数量、速度和危害。
19、故选D。2D主旨大意题。结合文章主要讲的是非洲西部发生的严重的蝗虫灾害,而且各方正为消灭蝗虫而做着努力。由此可知,文章主要讲述的是一场与西非蝗虫带来的灾难作斗争的故事。故选D。3B细节理解题。根据第四段中“Wearenowtreating6,000hectaresperdaywithpesticide, butweneedtotreat20,000hectaresperdayinordertohaveanyhopeofcontrollingthisdisaster,”saidMohamedAbdallahiOuldBabah, directoroflocustcontrolinMauritan
20、ia.可知毛里塔尼亚蝗虫控制中心主任MohamedAbdallahiOuldBabah说:“我们现在每天要用杀虫剂处理6,000公顷有蝗虫的土地,但是我们每天需要处理20,000公顷有蝗虫的土地,这样才有希望控制这场灾难。”由此可知,蝗虫灾害目前失去了控制。故选B。4C细节理解题。C选项“蝗虫能造成这样的破坏主要是因为它们在西非没有天敌”文章没有提到,所以C项错误。A、B、D三项均能从原文中找出对应信息,均正确。故选C。.语法填空阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。Livingbesideanactivevolcano(火山) meansthatsmalle

24、结合自己经历的一次小地震,介绍了地震发生时应该怎么做。1what考查宾语从句。设空处引导宾语从句,作介词like的宾语且表示“什么”之意,故填what。2as考查介词。comeasnosurprise意为“来得不稀奇,发生在意料之中”。3the考查定冠词。序数词前应用定冠词限定,故填the。4tobetrapped考查不定式的被动式。want后跟带to的不定式作宾语,又因trap与nobody之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故填tobetrapped。5running考查非谓语动词。设空处与hidingsomewhere并列作suchas的宾语,故填running。6that/which考查定语从句。设空处引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词earthquake,且在从句中作主语,故填that/which。7frightened考查形容词。设空处作表语,表示“人感到害怕的”,故填frightened。8lasted考查时态。由语境可知,此处描述的是发生在上周的事情,应用一般过去时,故填lasted。9luckily考查副词。设空处作状语修饰分句therewerenoinjuriesbyit,故填luckily。10done考查非谓语动词。设空处作后置定语修饰injuriesordamage,又因do与injuriesordamage之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故填done。
