A
Belton and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart. Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday- makers and other tourists(觀光者).
Last August there was a fire at the Sea breeze Hotel in Belton. The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper, The Belton Post:
FIRE AT SEABREEZE
Late last night firemen hurried to the Sea breeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: “Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed.” This was Belton’s first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one. ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE
Last night Belton firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Sea breeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, “An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp.” We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.
What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Sea breeze Hotel last August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes—we know that firemen went to the hotel.
Now what do you think of the rest of the “news”?
1. Which of the following best gives the main idea of this text?
A. Belton and Canfield are both good places for tourists in summer. B. A fire broke out one night in Sea breeze Hotel last summer. C. It was not easy to find out exact truth from newspapers. D. Two newspapers gave reports on the same matter.
答案解析:答案為C。本題為主旨大意題。文章前面的內(nèi)容陳述了兩則不同的新聞報(bào)道,后面的內(nèi)容對(duì)新聞報(bào)道進(jìn)行總結(jié),由倒數(shù)第二段第二句話(huà) “It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident.” 可知,答案為C。
2. Which of the following are probably facts?
a. The fire broke out in a bedroom at the hotel. b. A cigarette started the fire. c. An old lamp started the fire. d. The fire broke out at night.
e. There has never been a fire in Canfield. A. b and c B. a and d C. c and e D. a and c 答案解析:答案為B。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。由第一則報(bào)道的第一句話(huà) “Late last
night firemen hurried to the Sea breeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom.” 和第二則報(bào)道的第一句話(huà) “Last night Belton firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Sea breeze Hotel.”可知,火災(zāi)都發(fā)生在晚上和房間里,故答案為B。
3. The Canfield Times used the headline (標(biāo)題) like this in order to make its readers think _______.
A. hotels in Belton often catch fire
B. hotels in Belton don’t often catch fire
C. this was the second fire at the Sea breeze Hotel
D. Belton was a good place except that hotels there are not quite safe 答案解析:答案為A。本題為細(xì)節(jié)推理題。Canfield Times報(bào)紙報(bào)道的新聞標(biāo)題使用 “another” 意在告訴讀者Belton的旅館經(jīng)常發(fā)生火災(zāi),這樣可以使得自己城市的旅游業(yè)更具有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。故答案為A。
4. The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to the Belton Post by saying that _______.
A. the bedroom lamps were very old at the Sea breeze Hotel
B. the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place
C. the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things D. such accidents never happened in Canfield for the past 5 years 答案解析:答案為C。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。 Canfield報(bào)紙報(bào)道的第一句話(huà) “Last night Belton firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Sea breeze Hotel.” 一語(yǔ)中的,把最重要的信息首先傳遞給受眾,“消防員到達(dá)太晚未能挽救房間里的衣服,床單被褥和一些家具”, C選項(xiàng)的意思與此吻合,故答案為C。干擾項(xiàng)A選項(xiàng)是該則報(bào)道后面的內(nèi)容,不可選。
B
With only about 1,000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone the animal and save these in a dangerous situation. That's a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called "Noah's Ark".
Noah's Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of these animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M's College of Veterinary, Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will probably become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.
The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.
"The nuclear transfer of one species to another is not easy, but the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem," Kraemer believes. "They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and it's difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort," adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A&M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.
"They are trying to do something that's never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah's Ark. We're both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there's a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. The cooperation between us is very much needed."
1. The final aim of "Noah's Ark" project is to_______. . A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas B. save endangered animals from dying out
C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another
答案解析:答案為B。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。由第二段內(nèi)容可知,“諾亞方舟”項(xiàng)目的目的在于收集瀕臨滅絕的動(dòng)物的卵子、胚胎、精子和DNA,并用液體氮將它們儲(chǔ)存起來(lái)。如果某些物種滅絕了,將會(huì)有足夠的基礎(chǔ)建設(shè)材料再造這些物種。最后一段第二句 “We're both trying to save animals that face extinction.”又一次提到了這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的目的,即拯救瀕臨滅絕的物種。故答案為B。 2. According to Professor Kraemer, ________.
A. the long time lasting cloning research could be successful. B. the eggs transfers immediately result in having a baby.
C. the lack of nuclear transfer could be a major problem to have new pandas.
D. if species should die out, basic building blocks would heal them. 答案解析:答案為A。本題為推理題。由倒數(shù)第二段第一句話(huà) “?but the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem”可知,C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。由該段第二句話(huà) “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby).”可知,B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。由該段第三句話(huà) “It takes a long time and it's difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works.”可知,這(細(xì)胞核移植)需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,而且難度很大,但是一旦成功,便會(huì)成為開(kāi)創(chuàng)性的科學(xué)。言外之意就是長(zhǎng)期的克隆研究技術(shù)或許能成功。故A選項(xiàng)正確。
第二段提到 “If certain species should become extinct, ?there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.”,而 D選項(xiàng) “如果物種滅絕,基礎(chǔ)建設(shè)材料將治愈他們”夸大了基礎(chǔ)建設(shè)材料的作用,與原文不符,故錯(cuò)誤。
3. The best title for the passage may be_________. A. China's Success in Pandas Cloning B. Helping Ways to Avoid Extinction
C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas D. The Practice in Noah's Ark
答案解析:答案為C。本文為新聞報(bào)導(dǎo)類(lèi)文章,第一段點(diǎn)出了文章的中心,中國(guó)在努力克隆瀕臨滅絕的大熊貓,從第二段起具體介紹Duane Kraemer對(duì)中國(guó)科學(xué)家克隆大熊貓的做法的評(píng)價(jià),并與美國(guó)科學(xué)家正在從事的“諾亞方舟” 項(xiàng)目做了對(duì)比。文章最后一段表達(dá)了他們對(duì)中國(guó)同行所做的工作的高度評(píng)價(jià)。故最佳標(biāo)題為C “探索克隆大熊貓的可能性”。
4. From the passage we know that_______.
A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a panda B. scientists try to implant a panda's egg into a rabbit
C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches D. about two thousand species are to die out in a century 答案解析:答案為D。本題為細(xì)節(jié)題。由第三段第一句話(huà) “It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles will probably become extinct in over 100 years.”可知,D選項(xiàng)正確。
A選項(xiàng)明顯錯(cuò)誤;由第四段第一句話(huà) “This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit.”可知,B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。由最后一段最后一句話(huà) “The cooperation between us is very much needed.” 可知,Professor Kraemer是說(shuō)有必要合作,而不是將會(huì)與中國(guó)科學(xué)家一起致力于克隆研究, C選項(xiàng)與此表達(dá)不符,故不選。
