shark researchers are trying to comprehend the reasons that allow people to escape without being eaten. 虽然鲨鱼常被认为是疯狂杀人的猎手， 但事实上 这是不准确的。鲨鱼很少猎杀人类。比起被鲨鱼 杀死， 人类更有可能被闪电击中或是淹死在浴缸 中。在上个世纪，有报道的只有 74 人命丧鲨鱼 之口。然而大白鲨可以长到 6 米长、2200 公斤 重或是更重。3000 颗牙齿排成数排长在鲨鱼那 342 mess microscopic m 可怕的血盆大口中， 它们可以轻易杀死并吃掉无 助的落水者。 但为什么大多数人受到大白鲨攻击 之后都能鲨口逃生呢？鲨鱼研究者们正在努力 寻找使得人类鲨口脱险的原因。 the most common explanation is that great whites don t see well .it has been thought that they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组成 a large part of their diet. there is reason to doubt this, however. recent information shows that great whites can actually see very well. also, when attacking seals, great whites shoot up to the surface and bite with great force. when approaching humans, however, they most often move in slowly and bite less hard. they soon discover that humans are not a highfat meal.” they spit us out because were too bony 多骨的,” says aidan martin, director of reef quest center for shark research. 最常用的解释是说大白鲨的视力不好。 人们认为 大白鲨会把人类错当成是海豹或是海狮， 后两者 是鲨鱼的主要食物来源。 但是人类又找到了理由 来质疑这一论断。 最近的研究信息表明大白鲨视 力不错。并且当大白鲨在攻击海豹时，它们会迅 速窜上海面，用力撕咬。但当大白鲨在攻击人类 时，它们在大多数情况下会慢慢浮上海面，撕咬 的力度也轻得多。 它们很快就会发现人类的肉不 够肥。“它们把我们吐出来是因为我们太瘦了“， 艾丹.马丁说道，他是鲨鱼研究暗礁搜索中心的 领头人。 shark researchers like martin hypothesize that great whites are actually curious animals that like to investigate things. its possible that they use their bite not only to kill and eat, but also to gather information. although such an experience is unlucky for people like craig rogers, when sharks bite surfboards or other objects or people, they are likely just trying to learn what they are. 诸如马丁这样的鲨鱼研究者们提出了这样一种 假设：大白鲨实际上是一种好奇心很重的动物， 它们喜欢探索新鲜事物。 有可能它们撕咬物体不 仅仅是为了猎杀和吃掉，也是为了搜集信息。虽 然这种经历对于像克雷格 罗杰斯这些人来说很 不幸，但是当鲨鱼在撕咬冲浪板， 或是别的物 体，甚至是人类时，很可能它们只是在尽量了解 那到底是个什么东西。 练习： 1. after craig rogers fell into the water, the shark 3 分 craig 掉进水里之后，鲨鱼 a) bit his surfboard b) bit his fingers c) swam away d) attacked him 答案与题解： 1.c 选项 a( 鲨鱼咬冲浪板)和 b( 鲨鱼咬他的 手指)两个选项发生在 craig 落水之前，故排除 这两项。从第二段第三行可以得到如下信息：当 craig 落入水中，手指上的鲜血在水中散开之 时，这条五米长的鲨鱼知自己游走了。此信息排 除了选项 d( 鲨鱼攻击他) 因此答案为 c( 鲨鱼 自己游走了) 。 2. it is difficult for the author to understand why great whites 作者很难想象，大鲨鱼 a) often let humans escape b) kill humans 343 mess microscopic m c) have so many teeth d) grow to six meters or more 注解：文中并没有直接回答问题，只能靠推论。 3. which of the following is closest in meaning to “make up”in line 2 of paragraph 4? 3 分 a) create. b) are. c) increase. d) depend upon. 注解：只要查字典读懂一句话 they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组 成 a large part of their diet.，6 分可到手。 4. the word their in line 2 of paragraph 4 means 3 分 their 在第四段二行是什么意思 a) peoples b) great whites c) sea lions d) seals 注解：只要查字典读懂一句话 they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up 组 成 a large part of their diet.，6 分可到手。 5. what is the main idea of the forth paragraph？ 第四段是的中心是什么？ a) great whites eat lowfat，bony meals more slowly. b) great whites see well enough to include seals， sea lions，and humans in their diet. c) we now know great whites dont mistake humans for other animals. d) there is reason to doubt that great whites see well enough to attack humans. 注解：文中并没有直接回答问题。 在用神表实在无法确定选项时，不得已瞎选时， 可选选项中有 today，this day，now 。 词汇： scan vt.审视，细看，浏览 seal n. 海豹 elbow n. 肘，肘部 reef n.礁，暗礁 surface n. 表面 外表， vi. 浮出水面 quest n. 搜索，寻求，追求 drown vi.淹死，溺死 答案与题解： 1.c 选项 a( 鲨鱼咬冲浪板)和 b( 鲨鱼咬他的 手指)两个选项发生在 craig 落水之前，故排除 这两项。从第二段第三行可以得到如下信息：当 craig 落入水中，手指上的鲜血在水中散开之 时，这条五米长的鲨鱼知自己游走了。此信息排 除了选项 d( 鲨鱼攻击他) 因此答案为 c( 鲨鱼 自己游走了) 。 2.a 从第二段第一行我们可以看出： 鲨鱼被人类 视为杀手，这是一条常识，很容易理解，因此选 项b(杀人)被排除。 而选项c(有很多牙) 和d( 长 到六米长或是更长) 只是对鲨鱼的简单描述，也 属于常识；而且文中并未出现对它们的质疑，说 明作者也默认了这两条常识。因此选项 c 和 d 也被排除。所以答案是 a（常常让人类逃脱) 这 在文中第三段得到了验证， 第三段整段就是在说 虽然鲨鱼可以轻松杀死人类， 但是它们却很少杀 人。 第三段最后两行甚至提到就连鲨鱼研究者们 都在尽力寻找人类屡屡能鲨口逃生的原因， 这就 更能证明选项 a 是正确答案。 3.b 本题要求读者根据上下文的语境猜测第四 段第二行斜体标出的词组 make up 的意思。 结合 make up 词组前出现的单词 seal 和 sea lion 以及 它后面出现的词组 a large part of their diet，通过 常识我们可以猜出： 海豹和海狮应该是鲨鱼的主 要食物来源。比对四个选项，我们可以发现选项 a(创造) 、选项 c(增加) 和选项 d（依靠)在意 344 mess microscopic m 思上都说不通， 代入原文无法构成有意义的一句 话。 因此只有选项b( 是)在意思上和 make up 最 为接近，代入原文也说得通。 在本文中，词组 make up 的意思为：组成，构成。 4. b 本题要求读者根据 上下文的语境猜测第 四段第二行斜体标出的单词 their 的意思。结合 第四段前两行的内容，我们可以很容易推测出， 在这里 their 指代的是 the great whites( 大白鲨) 因此答案为 b。 5. c 本题要求读者总结出第四段的主要内容。 第四段主要介绍的是： 人们起初以大白鲨视力不 好为由来解释人类为何屡屡鲨口脱险， 但是最近 的信息表明大白鲨的视力并不差， 不会把人类误 认为是海豹或海狮。 大白鲨不吃人是由于它们觉 得人类太瘦.没有海狮和海豹的肉那么肥。对比 四个选项：选项 a 略显片面.不是本段的主要内 容，故排除。选项 b 中提到大白鲨也把人类当 作食物来源，这点是错误的，故排除 b。 选项 d 中说的是人们开始怀疑这一论断的正确性， 但 是选项 d 的表述和文中的信息正好相反；人们 现在开始怀疑的是 “大白鲨由于视力不好才去攻 击人类”这一论断，而不是“大白鲨由于视力很 好才去攻击人类” 故排除 d。所以正确答案为 c(我们现在知道大白鲨不会把人类误以为是其 他动物)。 shark 鲨鱼 attack 攻击! craig rogers was sitting on his surfboard, scanning the distance for his next wave, when his board suddenly stopped moving. he looked down and was terrified to see a great white shark biting the front of his board. ”i could have touched its eye with my elbow,” says craig. the shark had surfaced so quietly that he hadnt heard a thing. in his horror and confusion, he waved his arms and accidentally cut tow of his fingers on the sharks teeth. he then slid off the opposite side of his surfboard into the water. then, with craig in the water and blood flowing from his fingers, the fivemeterlong shark simply swam away, disappearing into the water below. although sharks are often categorized as killers that hunt and eat as many humans as then can, this is factually inaccurate. sharks very rarely kill humans. a person has a greater chance of being struck by lightning or drowning in a bath than of being killed by a shark. only 74 people have been reported killed by great whites in the last century. but great white sharks can reach six meters in length and weigh 2200 kilograms or more. with frightening jaws that can hold up to 3000 teeth arranged in several rows, they could very easily kill and eat a helpless human in the water. why is it, then, that most people survive attacks by great whites?

本文中心是什么？ a) visitors to mecca. b) the adventures of ibn battuta. c) ibn battutas character. d) asian countries of the 14th century. 中心题一般放在最后做。 2. which of the following is closest in meaning to “set off”出发 for in line 5? a) left to go to. b) discussed. c) arrived at. d) decided 决定 upon. page 1161 出发 一个个查，本题不难 3. the sultan of delhi gave ibn battuta a position of judge because 为什么苏丹给 ibn 一个法官的职位 a) the sultan needed a translator. b) ibn battuta had been a judge before. c) ibn battuta had studied in mecca. d) ibn battuta had traveled to many countries. 4. which of the following would the writer of this passage most likely agree with? 下列的句子那一个与作者观点一致？ a)ibn battutas journeys were very common for people of that time. b) ibn battutas stories are probably not true. c) ibn battutas journey was less important than marco polos. d) ibn battuta should be better known in the west today. 注解：该题为对错选择题，定位较难。得分困 难。只能一句句读。 在用神表实在无法确定选项时，不得已瞎选时， 可选选项中有 today，this day，now 。 5. why did ibn battuta finally return to his home？ 为什么 ibn 最后回到家乡？ a) he was tired of traveling. b) he didnt have any more money. c) he feared the sultan of delhi. d) the sultan of morocco asked him to return. 答案与题解: 1. b 根据本文的内容以及标题( the travels of ibn battuta) ， 我们可以很快排除选项 a、 c 和 d。 所以答案为 b（the adventures of ibn battuta) 。 2. a 从第一行我们知道伊本白图泰的家乡是丹 吉尔， 所以第五行中 set off 词组后提到的麦加必 然是伊本白图泰要去的城市， 想必他是离开家乡 前往麦加。因此，对比四个选项之后，我们不难 发现正确答案为 a(left to 90 to) 。 3. c 在第三段第七行中，我们可以发现本题的 答案：因为有在麦加的学习经历，德里的苏丹王 给伊本白图泰安排了法官的工作。因此，对比四 个选项之后，我们不难发现正确答案为 c（ibn battuta had studied in mecca） 。 4. d 选项 a 的意思是： 在他那个时代的人看来， 伊本白图泰的经历很普通。 结合本文内容我们知 道该选项必然是错误的，故排除 a。选项 b 的 意思是：伊本白图泰的游历故事可能是虚构的。 根据本文的内容我们可以知道伊本白图泰在历 348 mess microscopic m 史上确有其人，他的游历经历也是真实的，甚至 他的游历故事还被写成了书流传后世， 所以该选 项不对，故排除 b。选项 c 的意思是：伊本白 图泰的游历没有马可波罗的游历重要。 根据本 文， 我们知道伊本白图泰的经历虽然在西方社会 不如马可波罗那么有名， 但他的故事在阿拉伯世 界是家喻户晓。 文中并没有出现对比他们俩的信 息， 所以我们不能武断地说谁的游历就一定比另 一位的重要，故排除选项 c。因此，本题正确答 案为 d(在现今的西方世界，伊本白图泰应该会 比以前更有名)。 5. d 在第四段前两行中，我们会发现：最后摩 洛哥的苏丹王要求游历一生的伊本白图泰回家 和世人分享他的智慧。 定位这条信息之后，我 们再来对比四个选项就不难发现本题的正确答 案为 d( 摩洛哥的苏丹王要求他回家) 。 第 3 篇 the travels of ibn battuta “i left tangier, my birthplace, the 13th of june 1325 with the intention of making the pilgrimageto mecca.to leave all my friends both female and male, to abandon my home as birds abandon their nests. so begins an old manuscript in a library in paristhe travel journal of ibn battuta. almost two centuries before columbus, this young moroccan set off for mecca, returning home three decades later as one of historys great travelers. driven by curiosity, he journeyed to remote corners of the islamic world, traveling through 44 modern countries, three times as far as marco polo, little celebrated in the west, his name is well known among arabs .in his hometown of tangier, a square, a hotel, a caf ,a ferry boat ,and even a hamburger are named after him. ibn battuta stayed in mecca as a student for several years, but the urge to travel soon took over. in one adventure, he traveled to india seeking profitable employment with the sultan of delhi. on the way, he described his group being attacked in the open country by 80 men on foot, and two horsemen: “ we fought.killing one of their horsemen and about twelve of the foot soldiersi was hit by an arrow and my horse by another, but god in his grace preserved me. .we carried the heads of the slain to the castle of abu bakhar . and suspended them from the wall.” in delhi, the sultan gave him the position of judge, based on his prior study at mecca. but the sultan had an unpredictable character, and ibn battuta looked for an opportunity to leav
