environmentsmostly for entertainment purposesis fair and respectful?zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. how ever, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats. zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species name, diet, and natural range. the animals normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos dont usually take care of the animals natural needs.the animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. this results in unusual and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. a worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. captive breeding (圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats, asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. in fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. havent we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals natural habitats.36. how would the author describe the animals life in zoos?a. dangerous.b. unhappy.c. natural.d. easy.37. in the state of zoochosis, animals _.a. remain in cagesb. behave strangelyc. attack other animalsd. enjoy moving around38. what does the author try to argue in the passage?a. zoos are not worth the public support.b. zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.c. zoos should treat animals as human beings.d. zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.39. the author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _.a. discussing the advantages of natural habitats b. using evidence he has collected at zoosc. questioning the way animals are protectedd. pointing out the faults in what zoos do40. although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that _.a. zoos have to keep animals in small cagesb. most animals in zoos are endangered speciesc. some endangered animals are reproduced in zoosd. its acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats【参考答案】3640. bbadc阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项。【2013届广东省高三上期末华附、省实、广雅、深中四校联考】cthis is our country, america. the country where everyone is supposed to have a shot at financial success. the country of dreams and ambition. yet, caused by the endless pursuit of individual profit, our country is a mess. and we owe it all to capitalism. we live in a society where people are forced to live without health coverage. a country where the poor can hardly feed themselves while the rich decide which one of their 10 homes to stay at for the night. all of these sad things arise out of capitalism. sadly, our country values little more than money. it motivates our decisions and even influences entire political parties. we have gotten to the point in society where a human life comes secondary to our financial security. any rational society would value life above all else and realize that health is a basic human right. yet in our world, money comes first.i never once have claimed to be an economist and have no interest in debating the financial advantages of any economic system. yet socialism surely looks better than what we have. if we lived in a socialist society, we would be a country without such an unfair wealth distribution. we would value friendship over business and we would treat one another as humans. most importantly, however, is that money would stop controlling our lives and we could act how humans should act. capitalism has created an “every man for himself” existence. everything is a battle for limited resources and fuels. we have become so accustomed to the life value that we will do whatever we have to look out for ourselves. yet is this really the kind of life we want?we have become so illusioned. we are tired of the misdirection. all economic systems have their issues, but i feel like ours is turning our country into something it shouldnt be. the good of man falls secondary to money. in our world, it is all about dollars and cents, which, unfortunately for most, makes no sense.51. in the authors opinion, the root cause of the present situation in his country is _.a. money b. peoples value c. social unfairness d. social system【答案】d 【解析】细节理解题。根据we owe it all to capitalism所有的一切都是因为是资本主义社会，也就是他们国家的制度，故选d。52. according to the passage,

and, traveling in a ragtag group of cars, headed for the huge palomar ballroom in los angeles. it was not an easy trip. there were half a dozen dismal, sparsely attended onenighters and three weeks at a dance hall in denver, where the band was forced to play waltzes, tangos, and novelty numbers. on the opening night at the palomar, the band played ballad numbers in the first set, and there was little response from the dancers. then one of the musicians said, if they were going to bomb again they might well do it in style. so goodman called for his hot, often uptempo arrangements, many of them by the ingenious black bandleader and arranger fletcher henderson, and the kids stopped dancing, clustered around the bandstand, and began roaring. before the weeks at the palomar were over, it was clear that goodman had suddenly made jazzstill a suspect and largely subliminal american folk music, despite the brilliant inventions during the previous decade of jelly roll morton and othersinto a popular music. goodmans surprising ways continued. in 1936, he shook up the white entertainment establishment by hiring two black musiciansthe elegant pianist teddy wilson and the plunging vibraphonist lione hampton. (to be sure, wilson and hampton did not play in the band; instead, they appeared with goodman and the drummer gene krupa during intermissions.) a year later, when the band went into the paramount theater in new york for three weeks, legions of kids appeared, and a screaming, dancing riot nearly took place. it was the first great american show frenzy, and it prepared the way for the sinatra frenzy of 1947, and for all the beatles frenzies, and for all the mindless rockborne frenzies of the seventies and eighties. then, on the night of january 16, 1938, goodman, challenging the longhairs, took his band into a soldout carnegie hall. the big band played a dozen numbers, the trio two numbers, and the quartet five numbers. despite the immediate rumblings from olin downes, the timess classical music critic (“the playing last night, if noise, speed and beat, all old devices, are heat, was “hot” as it could be, but nothing came of it all, and in the long run it was decidedly monotonous”), goodmans concert moved jazz even further up the american popular register. 412 words 61. this passage is mainly a a general review of jazz music. b a biography of benny goodman. c about the origin of american folk music. d about how jazz became popular in america. 62. which of the following statements is true according to the passage? a the bands first music show in los angles was an immediate success. b goodman is considered the father of jazz music. c benny goodman was unknown to public when he left new york. d the band scheduled to play waltzes, tangos and novelty numbers at a dance hall in denver. 63. it could be inferred from the passage that a jazz is a style of music native to america. b classic music had become outdated at goodmans time. c morton and goodman were contemporaries. d goodman was the first bandleader who hired black musicians in 1930s. 64. the phrase “shake up” (line 1,paragraph 2) in the context probably means a to give a very unpleasant shock. b to make changes to an organization. b to get rid of a problem. d to point out, designate. 65. towards goodmans music show frenzy, olin downes, the classical music critic has a approving attitude. b satirizing attitude. c regretting mind. d exaggerated tone.【参考答案】passage 361. 【正确答案】 d about how jazz became popular in america. 【本题考点】主旨大意题。 【试题精解】 本文主要讲述音乐家benny goodman如何使爵士乐成为一种美国通俗音乐。选项a “爵士乐概观”和b “benny goodman传记”都涉及面太宽，所以不选。选项c “美国民族音乐的起源”与本文大意无关。 【考点出处】62. 【正确答案】 c benny goodman was unknown to public when he left new york. 【本题考点】 细节判断题。 【试题精解】 此题可利用排除法来做。文章第一段提到在洛杉矶巴罗默演奏厅的演出是一次艰难的跋涉，因此可排除选项a 。文中还提到在此前10年中其他人在爵士乐方面也有卓越的创作，故排除b 项。文章还提到乐队不得已演奏了华尔兹、探戈及新奇的乐曲。由此排除d 。而选项c 中说benny goodman悄悄离开纽约恰合题意，故选c 。 【考点出处】 文中第一段。63. 【正确答案】 a jazz is a style of music native to america. 【本题考点】 推理暗示题。 【试题精解】 根据文章第一段末句“.still a suspect and largely subliminal american folk music.”可以推断：爵士乐是源于美国一种音乐风格。 【考点出处】 第一段末句。64. 【正确答案】 b to make changes to an organization. 【本题考点】 主旨大意题。 【试题精解】 shake up在语境中意为：大力整顿，重组，使受到变动很大的安排或组织。分析四个选项可知只有b 项合乎题意，故选b 。 【考点出处】 根据语境及上下文联系推断词组意思。65. 【正确答案】 b satirizing attitude. 【本题考点】 语义归纳题。 【试题精解】 文章所引用的olin downes 的话，显然是一段针对goodmans 乐队演出的讽刺性的评论。因此本题的正确答案是b 。 【考点出处】 通过对全文的归纳总结来分析人物的态度，关键信息在最后一段。核心词汇 1.clarinetistn.单簧管演奏者 2.bandleadern.伴舞乐队的指挥 3.ragtagn.平民，穷人 例 ragtag and bobtail 下层社会 4.numbern.乐曲 例 my sister sang several numbers from the musical. 我姐姐唱了歌舞片里的几部选曲。 5.subliminala.下意识的，潜在意识的 6.legionn.大批，一大群人 例 a legion of admirers 一群仰慕者 7.frenzyn.狂暴，狂乱 例 in a frenzy of hate he killed the boss and revenged his friend.在一阵痛恨的狂乱中，他杀死了老板，为朋友报了仇。 8.trio三人一组，三件一套；三重奏，三重唱难句注释 （1）there were half a dozen dismal, and novelty numbers. 【解析】 复合句。关系副词where 引导定语从句。 【译文】 有六、七场沉闷的夜间演出，观众寥寥无几。乐队又在丹佛的一家舞厅演出了三个星期，不得已演奏了华尔兹、探戈及一些新奇的舞曲。 （2）before the weeks at the palomar were over, and othersinto a popular music. 【解析】 注意此处make sth. into sth. 的结构表示“将变成了”。 【译文】 很清楚，在帕罗玛几个星期的演出结束之前，goodman 突然间将爵士乐一种尚不明确的很大程度上是潜意识的美国民间音乐，尽管有早先十年中jelly
