False Fear of Big Fish
Many people believe sharks(鯊魚(yú))are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill humans. (46) A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium(水族館)in Baltimore,US,proves this. Visitors can touch young sharks.see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species swim smoothly around a huge tank.
Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don’t happen very often.Humans are mote likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark. (47)There,kids can learn,from an early age,not to fear sharks.
‘'People fear what they don’t know,”said Nancy Hotchkiss。an organizer of the exhibition.“Sharks have been around for 400 million years and play 1til important role in the ocean’s food chain.We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection。”
(48)A study ,published in January in the US magazine,Science,found that almost all recorded shark species have fallen by half in the past eight to 15 years.Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods,such as shark fin(魚(yú)翅)soup.And many others get caught in nets,while fishermen are hunting other fish. (49) “Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean for sharks,”said Dave Schofield, the manager of the aquarium’s ocean health program me. (50)

A They can watch(觀察) them develop(發(fā)展) inside their eggs(在他們的卵里) and feel(感覺(jué)) the skin(皮膚) of the older(年長(zhǎng)的) swimmers(游泳者)
B A shocking (令人吃驚的)100 million sharks are killed(被殺) every year around the world(全世界) by human(被人).
C In fact,94 per cent (94%)of the world’s 400 species(物種) are harmless(無(wú)害的) to humans
D It is a worrying(令人擔(dān)憂的) situation(情況) and some areas(地區(qū)) have put measures (措施)in place to protect (保護(hù))these special(特殊的) fish. ’

Many people believe(認(rèn)為) sharks(鯊魚(yú))are dangerous(危險(xiǎn)的) and will always try to (試圖) hurt(傷害) or even kill(殺死) humans. (46) A shark exhibition(展覽) at the National Aquarium(水族館)in Baltimore,US,proves(證明) this(指示代詞,指46空內(nèi)容。).
分析:該段第一句的意思是,很多人認(rèn)為鯊魚(yú)是危險(xiǎn)的,總是試圖傷害甚至威脅人類的性命。選項(xiàng)C的意思是:實(shí)際上,世界上400多種(鯊魚(yú))中94%的鯊魚(yú)對(duì)人類是無(wú)害的。此句的意思和第一句聯(lián)系起來(lái)語(yǔ)意通順,合乎邏輯,而且后面內(nèi)容與之聯(lián)系起來(lái)也是渾然一體,故選C。
Most people fail to(不能夠) realize(認(rèn)識(shí)到) that shark attacks(攻擊) don’t happen(發(fā)生) very often.Humans are more likely to(更有可能) be killed by lightning(閃電) than by a shark. (47)There,kids can learn,from an early age,not to fear sharks.
分析:該空的關(guān)鍵是后面的there, 應(yīng)該代指前面的一個(gè)地點(diǎn),所以在選項(xiàng)中只有E具有表示地點(diǎn)的詞 And to make this。point clear,,。the museum has set up a special touching pool for children:為了清楚地說(shuō)明這一點(diǎn),博物館專門(mén)為孩子們搭建了一個(gè)可以進(jìn)行觸摸(鯊魚(yú))的水池。第二段主要講鯊魚(yú)并不經(jīng)常攻擊人類,為了證明這一點(diǎn),博物館……選項(xiàng)E放入空格處很連貫,與原文意思相符,故E為正確答案。
(48)A study, published(出版) in January in the US magazine,Science,found (發(fā)現(xiàn))that almost all recorded(被記錄的) shark species(物種) have fallen(下降) by half (一半)in the past eight to 15 years.
分析:此段的第一句被刪除了,要求考生補(bǔ)全??崭窈竺媾e例說(shuō)明過(guò)去8至15年內(nèi)鯊魚(yú)種群消亡了多少,選項(xiàng)B(A shocking 100million sharks are killed every year around the world by humans.)顯然是本段的主題句,概括本段的意思,故B為正確答案。
And many others get caught in nets(用網(wǎng)捕魚(yú)),while(而) fishermen are hunting other fish. (49)
分析:空格前面講的是漁民們捕殺鯊魚(yú)的事情,選項(xiàng)F具體談到被捕殺的鯊魚(yú)有多大,選項(xiàng)F與前面敘述的內(nèi)容形成一種邏輯上的連貫關(guān)系,故F為正確答案。
“Some fishing methods(方法) are actually cleaning out(清理) the ocean for sharks,”said Dave Schofield, the manager of the aquarium’s ocean health program . (50)
分析:文章最后一段談到現(xiàn)在的一些捕鯊方式快把鯊魚(yú)捕盡了,選項(xiàng)D的意思是:這種情況令人擔(dān)憂,有些地區(qū)已經(jīng)采取措施來(lái)保護(hù)這些特殊的鯊魚(yú)(It is a worrying situation and some areas have put measures in place t0 protect these special fish.),可見(jiàn)D是正確的。
