prehistoric monster has surfaced once morein the limestone of lyme regiss famous “jurassic coast”excited archaeologists discovered the loch nessstyle creature on the beach and have spent months piecing together dozens of old bones to reveal the 12ftlong plesiosaur.the marine reptile hunted the oceans with a long thin neck and tail, four large flippers and razorsharp teeth. it existed during the jurassic period about 150 to 200 million years ago when what is now the channel was a shallow, tropical sea.the remains were discovered by the fossil hunter tracey marler under rocks on monmouth beach near lyme regis, dorset.as experts examined the bones in detail, they were surprised to see teeth marks from where a predator dinosaur could have feasted on the carcass of the “lake monster”. after further excavation about 150 vertebrae bones and parts of its skull and jaw, with one tooth remaining, were uncovered.mr moore said. “it came out in pieces but you could clearly see how it looked. the tail bone was in position, and some of the back bones were completely in place where they should be and the neck bone was there as well. there are teeth marks and you can see how the skeleton had been torn apart by some other nasty marine reptile.”the alternative of leaving it could have led to it being destroyed by illinformed collectors or eventually being washed away and eroded by the sea.richard edmonds, science manager for the jurassic coast world heritage site, said. “there was a risk that we could have damaged the pavement by the act of removing the fossil. plesiosaur remains are rare. there are only 10 known examples of complete or even partial skeletons of this species. i have been doing this for 30odd years and i have only ever found the old bone. it is hoped the skeleton, which is 70 percent complete, will go on public display at the lyme regis museum.”21what has been discovered according to the passage?a. the remains of a plesiosaur, the loch nessstyle creature.b. a lake monster living about 200 billion years ago.c. the body of a huge fish.d. a predator dinosaur which could have feasted on the “lake monsters”22what was the english channel like during the jurassic period?a. warm and rainy.b. dry and hot.c. cold and snowy. d. cold and hot.23where will the the prehistoric monster be?a. in the place where it was discovered.b. in the the lyme regis museum.c. in london museum.d. in paris museum.答案与解析：21解析：细节理解题。由文章可知，b时间不正确；发现的不是一条鱼，故c也不正确。发现的是一个plesiosaur的遗骸，而不是predator dinosaur的遗骸，故选a。答案：a22解析：推理判断题。由第四段中的.the channel was a shallow, tropical sea.可知英吉利海峡在很久以前是热带浅海，天气温暖多雨。答案：a23解析：细节理解题。由最后一句“.will go on public display at the lyme regis museum.”可知。答案：bbapollofor lovers of the arts, apollo is a truly necessary magazine. covering the

roommate kate was extremely organized. each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. she even labeled(贴标签) everything. i always looked for everything. over time, kate got neater and i got messier. she would push my dirty clothing over, and i would lay my books on her tidy desk. we both got tired of each other.war broke out one evening. kate came into the room. soon, i heard her screaming, “take your shoes away! why under my bed！” deafened, i saw my shoes flying at me. i jumped to my feet and started yelling. she yelled back louder.the room was filled with anger. we could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. kate answered it. from her end of the conversation, i could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. when she hung up, she quickly crawled(爬) under her covers, sobbing. obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. all of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.slowly, i collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. i got so into my work that i even didnt notice kate had sat up. she was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. i looked up into her eyes. she smiled at me, “thanks.”kate and i stayed roommates for the rest of the year. we didnt always agree, but we learned the key to living together; giving in, cleaning up and holding on.28what made kate so angry one evening? ashe couldnt find her books. bshe heard the author shouting loud. cshe got the news that her grandma was ill. dshe saw the authors shoes beneath her bed.29the author tidied up the room most probably because _. ashe was scared by kates anger bshe hated herself for being so messy cshe wanted to show her care dshe was asked by kate to do so30how is paragraph 1 mainly developed? aby analyzing causes. bby showing differences. cby describing a process. dby following time order.31what might be the best title for the story? amy friend kate bhard work pays off chow to be organized dlearning to be roommates答案与解析：28解析：根据第二段第三句中的“take your shoes away! why under my bed！”可知，kate生气的原因是作者的鞋子在她的床下面。故选d项。答案：d29解析：根据第三段最后一句“all of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.”可知，作者对kate表示同情，因此整理房间可能是想表示自己对她的关心。故选c项。答案：c30解析：文章第一段讲述了作者不爱整洁，爱乱放东西，而室友kate却安排得井然有序，说明了两人之间的差异。因此第一段主要是通过显示差异来组织安排的。故选b项。答案：b31解析：纵观全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者和室友不同的生活习惯使两人的矛盾爆发，但一次电话改变了她们之间的关系，使她们学会了一起愉快相处的秘诀：让步、整理和不放手。d项概括了文章主旨最适合作为文章标题。故选d项。答案：ddthe united nations environment programme is calling for urgent action to reduce growing risks from chemicals. better management of chemicals could save millions of lives and billions of dollars. as estimated, 143,000 chemicals are now produced. yet the report says only a small number of these chemicals have been studied for their effects on human health and the environment. it says death and disability rates are high from the unsafe use of chemical products.sylvie lemmet, director of the united nations environment programme, says poor management of chemicals has a high economic cost. for example, she says the cost is higher than the amount of overseas development aid, or oda, for health care in subsaharan africa.she says, “look at the estimated cost of poisoning from pesticide in subsaharan africa, only the injury and the loss of working time is estimated to be 6.3 billion us dollars in 2009. this is higher than the total oda that is going to the health sector in the same area.”the united nations environment programme estimates that chemical sales worldwide will increase by around three percent a year until 2050. chemical production is moving quickly from developed to developing countries. by 2020, chemical production is expected to increase by 40 percent in africa and the middle east and 33 percent in latin america. one of its biggest concerns is pollution of rivers and lakes by pesticides and fertilizer. other major concerns are heavy metal pollution from the production of cement and textiles, and dioxin pollution from mining. the un report urges the chemical industry and governments to work together to develop safety policies. it says preventing harm costs less than fixing it.32the purpose of paragraph 3 is mainly to indicate that _. athe use of pesticide causes a great loss bafrica needs more development aid cchemicals have a high production cost dthe estimated cost of poisoning from pesticide is inaccurate33which of the following is not a source of danger according to the text? apesticide. bfertilizer. cheavy metals. dminerals.34according to the text, what is the main reason for the risks from chemicals? apoor management of chemicals. black of research funds on chemicals. cthe mass production of cement and textiles. dcontradictions between chemical producers and governments.35what would be the best title for the text? athe truth in sylvie lemmets comments ba un warning about chemical dangers cthe unpredictable future of chemical industry dpreventing is much better than fixing答案与解析：本文讲的是联合国环境规划署号召我们要采取行动来减少日益增加的化学产品给人类带来的危害。32解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知，sylvie lemmet是在说杀虫剂中毒给人类的身体和经济带来巨大的损失。故选a。答案：a33解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段后两句的内容可知，a、b、c三项均是危害的来源，而d项文中没有提及。故选d。答案：d34解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“better management of chemicals .”和第二段中的“sylvie lemmet, director of the united nations environment programme, says poor management of chemicals has a high economic cost.”可知，应选a。答案：a35解析：主旨大意题。本文讲的是联合国环境规划署号召我们要采取行动来减少日益增加的化学产品给人类带来的危害。故b项做本
