39、Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind,unless they hunt them for food.Sometimes,however,two kinds of animals come together in a partnership,which does good to both of them.You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep.This is not because they want a ride
40、,but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫) on sheep.The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort.So although they can manage without each other,they do better together.Sometimes an animal has a plant partner.The relationship develops until the two partn
41、ers cant manage without each other.This is so in the corals of the sea.In their skins they have tiny plants act as “dustmen”,taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe.If the plants are killed,or are even prevented from light so tha

61、nd.Both girls write to each other now.However,they have decided to use the post office.Letters will cost a little more,but they will certainly travel faster.21B由句意“我们以前认为不可能的事现在看起来的确是可能的”和谓语动词used to think可知空格处的谓语部分应该表达过去意义。22C本题考查动词短语辨析。show up出现;show off炫耀;turn out证明是,结果是;come up走上前。23A本题考查名词词义辨析。
62、climb up the high rock (爬到大石头上)需要力气(strength)。power意为“权力,电力”;energy意为“精力”;force意为“强制力”。24C本题考查be said to do句型结构。根据句意知Alice近来一直在做,现在还没完成(will get through),因而使用现在完成进行时。25A本题考查动词词义辨析。此处意为目击这次抢劫案,故用witness。26D本题考查however引导让步状语从句的用法。修饰的形容词要紧跟however,语序用陈述语序。27D本题考查动词短语辨析。从后一句知不相信故事的真实性,因此认为他在编故事,不是真的。pic
63、k up捡起;接人;偶然习得;turn up调高;出现;do up挽起(头发);make up编造,虚构。28D本题考查表语从句。从句中缺少did的宾语,因此用what。29A句意为:有些地方因为天气状况恶劣,人烟稀少。本题考查介词短语辨析。due to由于,因为;but for要不是,如果没有;in spite of尽管;with relation to与有关,根据句意,这里要选的应该是表示原因的词,故A正确。30Ainspired意为“被鼓舞的,被激动的,被感染的”,多用于修饰人;inspiring意为“令人鼓舞的,鼓舞人心的”,多用于修饰人以外的事物,根据句意应选A。31A考查代词的用法
64、。此处表示泛指,代替单数可数名词,故用one。it用来代指上文提到的同一个事物。32Bapprove of赞成,同意。33A句意为:他无法使他父亲相信约翰说的是事实。convince意为“使信服,说服”,常用作convince sb. of sth.结构,意为“使某人相信某事”;convince sb. thatclause使某人相信;believe不能用作believe sb. that.结构;admit承认,允许进入,接纳;display陈列,展览,显示。34Aleave out遗漏,删掉,省略;leave behind落后,落下;leave off停止;leave over留下;剩下。3
65、5Cwhich是关系代词,指前面句子的整个内容;that不能引导非限制性定语从句;as也可指整个被修饰的句子的内容,但是不能充当动作的原因,故答案为C。36Das you know “正如你所知”是习惯用法,as指后面的整个句子的内容。37B下文有ends,因此这里要用begins与之对应才符合逻辑。38A表示“在天上”习惯用介词in。39B这里应指太阳升起与落下的位置。40C承接上文,当太阳位于最高位置时,白天就过去一半了。这里表示时间的“度过”,故用spent。41Dwherethe place in which,本空所在句意是“通过观察在空中太阳的位置”。42B此处应表示“能够”。43A
66、此句意为“在夜里,星星有太阳同样的作用(供人计时用)”。serve the same purpose达到同样的目的。44Dthe moment of noon中午时刻。45Cwherever we are(无论我们在哪里)是状语从句。此处考查疑问代词的用法。46A此处意思是“就在头顶上”,故用directly。47Aacross the sky(横贯天空)。48C下文说it is morning,因此要用east才合适。49D上文提到没过此线是morning,现在过线了,所以应该是afternoon。50C此处表示meridian一词的出处,故用from。51D后文before midday(
67、中午之前)说明应选A.M.。52B这里应表示“每一个”的意思。everyone后面不接of结构。53A此空应该用一个关系代词来引导非限制性定语从句。54A下文中有in an hour,这说明speed不妥,height与route不合句意。55D此空处所填词既要充当从句的主语又要引导这一主语从句,因此whoever正确。56B根据第一段中的“He had visited every country in the world.”可得出答案。其他三项与文章内容不符。57C因为文章在第二段第一句提到两天之后他喝完了他所有的水,不能走了,再由下文可知他是在找水喝,故选C。58B由文章最后一句话,可知答
68、案为B项。59D这是一个用了虚拟语气的句子。由文章内容可知Gray尽管是百万富翁,但未系领带,是不准进入旅店的,假如他买了那个人的领带,他就可以进入旅店喝水了。60B根据故事第一句话可选出答案。根据全文可进一步证实答案。61D此题考查细节理解及思维的顺序性,须按动作发生的先后排列,见文章第二段。62C文中提到他还有一件衬衫,但需要熨;在他熨衬衫时有人来抄电表数,结果衬衫烧了个洞,所以不能穿了。最后他只能穿着带有血迹的那件衬衫去上班。63B64C细节理解题。根据第三句“Today,some skirts are even longer than before,but some are very
69、short.”可确定答案为C。65A细节理解题。根据对“Womens shoes have also gone through all sorts of boots for women,which were very common at the beginning of this century.Then for years,they were not considered fashionable.Today,theyre back again in all colours,lengths and materials.”的理解,可确定答案为A。66B细节理解题。根据对“.mens clothi
70、ng remained almost the same until a few years ago.”的理解男人的服饰在最近几年才开始变化,可确定答案为B。67D主旨大意题。根据对全文的整体理解和判断,可确定答案为D。68A根据第一段中“but because.on sheep.”可推知。69B根据上下文they指birds and sheep。70D根据第二段中“.oxygen.breathe.”可推知。71Web/Website/Net/Internet72.confusing73.regular74application75.Situation76.money77.experience7
