(按时 上课)第ii卷 能力部分 （共三个大题，计80分）iv. 阅读理解。（共两节，满分40分）第一节 阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给的a、b、c、d四个选项中，选出最佳选项。（共15题；每小题2分，共30分） ainland waters may be grouped into two general classes: standing waters and flowing waters. as is often the case, the boundary between these two classes is not sharp and clear. a pond is an example of standing water. but most ponds are fed by springs or brooks and most have an outlet. thus some current of changing water flows through them. on the other hand, a river is an example of flowing water. in some places, however, a river may have such a slow current that it is very difficult to detect. standing inland waters differ in size, in age, and in many abiotic environmental characteristics. they range in size from roadside puddles to the caspian sea. puddles may last for only a few days or weeks; ponds, for a few hundred to a thousand years. in general, lakes are older, though the waters of some tropical “lakes” disappear completely during each dry season. standing waters vary from very shallow to very deep, from clear to muddy, from fresh to salty. in flowing waters we roughly distinguish between brooks, creeks, and rivers. the size and age of flowing waters are unimportant. speed of flow, clearness, oxygen content, and other chemical characteristics are used by scientists in studying flowing-water ecosystems.21. according to the passage, which of the following characteristics of flowing waters is unimportant? a. clarity. b. size. c. speed of flow. d. oxygen content.22. the word “abiotic” in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by _. a. nonliving b. living c. coastal d. inland23. which of the following statements is true? a. usually the water in a river flows into a pond.b. scientists only study flowing-water ecosystems.c. usually ponds last much longer than puddles.d. the caspian sea is considered as an example of flowing water.24. from this passage we may know that the distinction between standing waters and flowing waters _. a. depends on how people name the waters b. is clear c. depends on the seasons d. is hard to make25. this passage mainly tells us that _. a. there are two major classes of inland waters b. lakes and rivers are flowing waters c. age and size of flowing waters are important d. ponds and brooks are standing waters b im afraid to grow oldwere all afraid. in fact, the fear of growing old is so great that every aged person is an insult and a threat to the society. they remind us of our own death, that our body wont always remain smooth and responsive, but will someday betray(背叛) us by aging. the ideal way to age would be to grow slowly invisible, gradually disappearing, without causing worry or discomfort to the young. in some ways that does happen. sitting in a small park across from a nursing home one day, i noticed that the young mothers and their children gathered on one side, and the old people from the home on the other. whenever a youngster would run over to the “wrong” side, chasing a ball or just trying to cover all the available space, the old people would lean forward and smile. but before any communication could be established, the mother would come over, murmuring embarrassed apologies, and take her child back to the “young” side. now, it seemed to me that the children didnt feel any particular fear and the old people didnt seem to be threatened by the children. the division of space was drawn by the mothers. and the mothers never looked at the old people who lined the other side of the park. these well-dressed young women had a way of sliding their eyes over, around, through the old people; they never looked at them directly. the old people may as well have been invisible; they offended the aesthetic eye of the mothers. my early experiences were somewhat different; since i grew up in a small town, my children had more of a nineteenth-century flavor. i knew a lot of old people, and considered some of them friends.26.people are afraid of growing old because it is usually associated with _. a. insult b. threat c. death d. betrayal27. in the authors opinion, it is a perfect way to _. a. grow old slowly and then die unnoticed b. grow old suddenly and then die c. shut oneself up from others when growing old d. remain young all ones life and then die suddenly28. it can be inferred that young mothers would try to keep their children away from the old because _. a. they feared their children might hurt the old b. they didnt like their children to take up the space belonging to the old c. they felt it was wrong to play balls near where the old stayed d. they didnt want their children to have anything to do with the old29. the author believes the division between the old and the young is _. a. made by people b. understandable c. formed naturally d. traditional30. from the passage, we learn that the author _. a. used to have the same experience as the young have today b. has never been afraid of getting old c. was quite free to know and befriend old people in his childhoodd. both b and c cwhen, after a year of being alone on his island, robinson crusoe sees a footprint in the sand, the reader of robinson crusoe trembles. will crusoe find another human being to end his loneliness? is the footprint the sign of an enemy? since 1719, when daniel defoe wrote robinson crusoe, thousands of people who enjoy english novels have thrilled to this great adventure story. but few know how the story came to be written. robinson crusoe was the first english novel. its birth brought together the misadventures of a scotch “failure” and the untapped imagination of an aging english scribbler. near the end of the seventeenth century, the hot-tempered alexander selkirk was charged with bad conduct while in church. rather than face this charge, he ran away to sea. several years later, selkirk found himself on the ship of an english privateer. the privateer was preying on spanish shipping. but selkirk quarreled bitterly with the captain. so, when the ship came to the island of juan femandez in the south seas, selkirk asked to be put ashore. when he saw that there were no people on the island, he begged to be taken back on board. but the captain refusedselkirk had gone too far. over four years later, selkirk was rescued by another ship.when selkirk got back to england, the story of his life on the island fired the imagination of daniel defoe. defoe had been earning a living by his pen since he was thirty. he was amazingly hard-working. he wrote a whole newspaper three times a week. he also made part of his living from politics. he supported both political parties. he told each party that it had his sole support.defoes morals were weak. but he was a fine writer. he was almost sixty when, in the midst of his work in politics, he wrote robinson crusoe. in it, defoesaid one critic“forged(编造) a story, and forced it on the world for truth.” the detail of crusoes battle for survival on a lonely island is so vivid that the reader of robinson crusoe accepts the product of the authors imagination for reality. robinson crusoe became the first of a long line of heroes and heroines that have peopled english novels since defoes time.31. alexander selkirk spent four years on a desert island because . a. he sought adventure b. he was hot-tempered c. he was afraid to face charges d. his ship was wrecked32. daniel defoe . a. made his living as a writer b. got his start as a writer with the writing of robinson crusoe c. was very “straight”-he was hardworking and honest d. had little power of imagination, but succeeded with his novel because he worked hard33. this passage is mainly about . a. how alexander selkirk was able to survive on the island. b. why people enjoy english novels c. what the footprint in the sand meant d. how robinson crusoe came to be written34. according to this passage , which of the following statements is not true?
