Between 1961 and 2016, the average annual increase in global food fish consumption outpaced p
58、opulation growth. Those are figures not sustainable for us, the fish or the environment as a whole. Cellular seafood could be the answer.

62、y the current seafood industry. Instead, its intended to augment itand perhaps to help reduce some of the more harmful aspects of current fishing practices like overfishing and illegal fishing. And when it comes to certain sea species, this laboratory-based approach could help create a plentiful sup

65、鲜的重要性, 因为它可以解决一些现存的问题。B. Stressing the significance of cellular seafood. (强调多细胞海鲜的重要性)符合以上推测, 故选B项。33. What problem with cellular seafood is Finless Foods facing? A.

D. Tolerate. 【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据最后一段的The goal of cellular seafood isnt to entirely destroy the current seafo
68、od industry. Instead, its intended to augment itand perhaps to help reduce some of the more harmful aspects of current fishing practices like overfishing and illegal fishing. 可知, 多细胞海鲜的目的不是完全摧毁目前的海产行业。相反, 它的目的是augment它或许帮助减少现在渔业中更有害的方面, 例如过度捕捞和非法捕鱼。根据句意可知, 上下文是相反的情况, 由此猜测画线部分的意思是“加强”。B. strengthen(加

95、 Because of that, nowadays many people think old friends to be 56 (important) than new ones. For example, if two pieces of advice 57 (give) to solve a problem, one from a new friend and the other from an old friend, people always tend to choose the latter one, although the new friends advice may be
96、better. I, however, 58 (agree) with the old saying, believing that new friends are not 59 (necessary) worse than old friends. Why? Because the 60 (long) of time cannot tell whether your friendship is better or not. Once you call someone friend, he must be a person 61 is reliable and whose interests
97、are in common with 62 (you). Maybe a friends outside look 63 (change) all the time, but the inside characters of him and his interests wont change at all. It is just these unchangeable characters and interests 64 make him a friend to you. 65, on this point, there is no difference between old friends

My friend and I volunteered to part
102、icipate in the debate. There were many topics to choose from and I chose to speak on AIDS. Even though I had no idea what the competition would be like, I decided to go ahead and prepare for it and I used an article from a magazine as reference. On the day of the event, I practiced my lines but was
103、feeling nervous as there would be many listeners and the stage fear was chasing me already and truly it caught up with me. I reached the auditorium (礼堂), and it was large. The competition began, and I was getting sweaty palms. I was at a loss when the speaker before my turn unexpectedly had chosen t
104、he same topic as me and also referred to the same magazine and reproduced it line by line, leaving me in a daze (恍惚) on what to do next as I just had a couple of minutes with me. Soon enough I was on the stage and I could gather courage and speak for only two minutes. I felt so bad. I had not only l
105、et my school down but also myself. I then decided to put in my best efforts and overcome my stage fear and prepare well for the next debate. Luckily I did not have to wait long as the next competition was organized by my school. This time my topic was against castes (印度的种姓; 等级制度) in indian society.
106、I wrote the script with my own efforts and practiced for hours in front of the mirror even though I had learned the script by heart. The day came and this time I was confident about myself, I just went about doing my job and lasted for five minutes. I had a very satisfied feeling coming from within.
107、 When the results were announced, I had come second in the event, I was so happy and all my efforts paid off. _【参考范文】Twenty years ago, as a middle school student I attended a debate competition. (要点1)As I was not well prepared and I got nervous and feared, I lost the competition. (要点2)Soon another d
108、ebate competition was held. I prepared for every detail, conquered myself and got the second place. (要点3)From this experience I know efforts will pay off sooner or later. (要点4)【分析】这是一篇概要写作。【详解】写作步骤(1)细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文, 掌握文章主旨和结构, 明确各段的大意。文章主要讲述了二十年前, 作者作为一名中学生参加了一次辩论赛。由于作者没有准备好, 内心紧张和害怕, 最后输了比赛。不久, 另一场
109、辩论赛举行了。作者准备好了每一个细节, 战胜了自己, 获得了第二名。从这次经历中, 作者知道努力迟早会有回报的。(2)弄清要求。新高考的概要写作是写全文概要, 不是写某一部分的概要, 或者就某些问题写出要点。(3)列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构, 将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。(4)在写作时要特别注意下面几点: 概要应包括原文中的主要事实, 略去不必要的细节。安排好篇幅的比例, 概要应同原文保持协调, 即用较多的文字写重要内容, 用较少的文字写次要内容。注意要点之间的衔接, 要用适当的关联词语贯通全文, 切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子,
110、 但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语, 以免显得生硬。不排斥用原文的某些词句, 但不要照搬原文的句子, 如果不能完全用自己的话语表达, 至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换, 如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。计算词数, 看是否符合规定的词数要求。【点睛】本文描写详略得当, 使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如: attend; a debate competition; well prepared; conquer; effort; pay off; sooner or later和As I was not well prepared and I got nervous and feared, I lost the competition. 运用了原因状语从句等。关闭Word文档返回原板块
