课时规范训练(九).阅读理解AA goat sent to a Russian animal park as live prey(猎物)for a tiger has instead made friends with the big cat.Amur the tiger and Timur the goat now sleep in the same area in an animal park in the city of Vladivostok. They eat and play together in the snow and this week even head­butted(用头撞)each other for fun.The story of the unusual friendship has touched hearts in Russia, with the animal park releasing regular updates on the pair. The park plans to install video cameras in their living area.Staff at the park said the tiger, which has been given live animals to hunt and eat twice a week for three years, did not touch the goat when it entered the living area last month because the goat did not show any fear.“No one had taught the goat to be afraid of tigers，” the park said to an AFP reporter.Zoo chief Dmitry Mezentsev described the unlikely friendship as nothing short of a miracle.He said the staff realized the tiger would not touch the goat after the two had spent three days together.Timur now sleeps inside the shelter where Amur previously slept, while the tiger spends the night on its roof.They meet up in the morning to walk around，with the goat usually following the tiger. Over the past few days they have begun playing together and running after each other.On Wednesday, Timur challenged Amur，hitting him with his horns (角)“The tiger accepted the goat's challenge，”the animal park said.“He pushed his forehead against Timur's horns, and the friends butted heads for five seconds without fighting, after which, Amur calmly went to lie in the sun on the hill.”The tiger has also attempted to teach the goat how to catch prey and has recently taken a great interest in a block of salt given to Timur.Amur is now being fed live rabbits for lunch，“out of respect for goats，” said Mezentsev.1Why was the goat sent to the Russian animal park?ABecause it was a rare species.BBecause its habitat had been destroyed.CBecause it was intended to be food for a tiger.DBecause it was going to be trained there.2How did people find out about the story of Amur and Timur?AFrom a report from AFP.BFrom a staff member of the animal park.CFrom visitors who happened to hear about it.DFrom the information released by the animal park.3What is Mezentsev's opinion on the friendship between Amur and Timur?AHe can't believe it is true.BHe thinks it is nothing special.CHe considers it an amazing thing.DHe thinks it is unlikely to last long.4What can we learn from the text?AThe goat was afraid of the tiger at first.BThe tiger didn't accept any challenge from the goat.CAmur and Timur were familiar with each other before.DAmur and Timur learned skills from each other calmly.【语篇导读】本文讲述了一只山羊作为猎物被送往俄国的一个动物园，但是最终和老虎成为亲密无间的好友的故事。本文还通过工作人员的讲述让人们了解了它们的日常生活。1解析：选C。细节理解题。由文章第一段A goat sent to a Russian animal park as live prey(猎物)for a tiger .可知，山羊是作为老虎的猎物被送往俄国的动物园的。故选C项。2解析：选D。细节理解题。由文章第三段中The story of the unusual friendship has touched hearts in Russia，with the animal park releasing regular updates on the pair.可知，人们了解它们的信息是通过动物园对这对好朋友情况的定期更新。故选D项。3解析：选C。细节理解题。由文章第六段中Zoo chief Dmitry Mezentsev described the unlikely friendship as nothing short of a miracle.可知，Mezentsev认为这简直就是个奇迹。故选C项。4解析：选D。细节理解题。由文章第四段中because the goat did not show any fear.和文章倒数第四、五段中.Timur challenged Amur .和“The tiger accepted the goat's challenge，” .可知A项和B项错误。由文章第一段可知山羊是被送进动物园的，所以它们之前不可能是朋友。故C项错误。由文章倒数第二段The tiger has also attempted to teach the goat how to catch prey .可知D项正确。BLAST­MINUTE TRAVEL DEALSSave up to 25% off your next TrekAmerica(北美远足旅游公司)tour with our last­minute adventure travel deals below.Only a limited number of spaces are available at the discounted price，so we recommend you book your place today！These deals may change at any time.To receive your discount，you simply need to go to the tour page，select the departure date on the Dates & Prices tab and hit the Book Now button.Alternatively(或者)，please contact us for telephone bookings.View all tours departing in the next six weeks with late availability here.·SOUTHERN BLTDeparts 23 December |21 days from New York areaSAVE 25%NOW US$2,730Travel right across the continent，from one awesome US city to the nextthat's NYC to LA，in other words.If camping is not your favorite，there's no finer way to roll on through different places like deserts，mountains，cities and canyons(峡谷)Magic!Quote discount code：890142·SOUTHERN DIXIELANDDeparts 13 January |15 days from MiamiSAVE 10%NOW US$2,007Travel through the very heart of the southern US and discover the origins of country，jazz and rock n roll music.Start in Miami before heading into the Everglades，Orlando，Panama City Beach，New Orleans，Memphis and Nashville!Quote discount code：890136·COSTA RICA BLTDeparts 24 January |13 days from San JoseSAVE 15%NOW US$1,853An adventurer's paradise，filled with wildlife，towering volcanoes and beautiful scenery.Experience river rapids，cycle through awesome scenery，walk through cloud forests and swim on tropical beaches on this Costa Rican adventure.Quote discount code：890133·NORTHEASTERN BLTDeparts 13 February |9 days from New York areaSAVE 15%NOW US$1,377Embrace the highlights of the northeastern states on this nine­day，year­round，fully accommodated tour.Experience a string of superstar cities，the impressive Niagara Falls and lots of activities for every budget and interest.Quote discount code：8901455Supposing you had half a month's vacation，you could go on any of the following trips EXCEPT _.ASOUTHERN BLTBSOUTHERN DIXIELANDCCOSTA RICA BLTDNORTHEASTERN BLT6You need to pay _ if you want to travel from NYC to LA without any discount.AUS$2,730BUS$2,007CUS$3,640 DUS$2,2307Which of the following discount codes would be useful if you were interested in music?A890142.

In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning (铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred (繁殖). Since 1992, there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off.“As they go in to rest for the night, they just don't see the power lines，”says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution (电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of setfree birds died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with.When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney (肾) failure and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off.The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout's team thinks that the California condors' average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years.“Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now，”he says.“They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them.”12California condors attract researchers' interest because they _.Aare active at nightBhad to be bred in the wildCare found only in CaliforniaDalmost died out in the 1980s13Researchers have found electrical lines are _.Ablocking condors' journey homeBbig killers of California condorsCrest places for condors at nightDused to keep condors away14According to Paragraph 5, lead poisoning _.Amakes condors too nervous to flyBhas little effect on condors' kidneysCcan hardly be gotten rid of from condors' bloodDmakes it difficult for condors to produce baby birds15This passage shows that _.Athe average survival time of condors is satisfactoryBRideout's research interest lies in electric engineeringCthe efforts to protect condors have brought good resultsDresearchers have found the final answers to the problem【语篇导读】美国加利福尼亚州的秃鹫因为各种原因濒临灭绝，但在科研人员的帮助下，秃鹫的种群逐渐恢复生机。长难句解读：1.Since 1992，there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild，and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona，Utah and Baja in Mexico.分析：本句中and连接两个并列分句，后面的并列分句中使用了现在分词短语作状语。译文：自1992年以来，许多秃鹫被再次放归野外，如今在加利福尼亚州和周边的亚利桑那州、犹他州和墨西哥的巴哈的上空翱翔着150多只秃鹫。2So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days.分析：本句的主语部分由with短语作定语，后面where引导的非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Los Angeles Zoo；where引导的非限制性定语从句中包含了一个that引导的定语从句，先行词为a chemical。译文：于是，体内含有高剂量的铅的秃鹫被送往洛杉矶动物园。在那里，这些秃鹫得到一种名为EDTA的钙物质的治疗。这是一种化学药物，能够在几天时间内清除血液中的铅。12解析：选D。推理判断题。文章没有直接说美国加利福尼亚州秃鹫引起了研究人员的兴趣，但是结合第一段和下文的“So scientists have come up with a shocking idea”可推断，因为电线和铅中毒，20世纪80年代加利福尼亚州秃鹫濒临灭绝，因此它们引起了科研人员的兴趣。13解析：选B。细节理解题。从题干中的electrical lines可知，答案应定位在第三段。电线能使秃鹫丧命，因为秃鹫晚上休息的时候看不见电线，而如果它们宽大的翅膀同时搭在两根电线上，它们就会被电死。因此选B。14解析：选D。细节理解题。第五段讲述了铅中毒对秃鹫的危害：影响秃鹫的神经系统(A错)，影响秃鹫繁衍后代的能力(D正确)，导致秃鹫肾衰竭(B错)。科研人员给秃鹫使用一种化学药物，帮助它们排出了体内的铅(C错)。因此选D。15解析：选C。主旨大意题。本文介绍了美国加州秃鹫濒临灭绝的原因以及科研人员为挽救秃鹫而开展的研究工作。另外，文章的标题也直接表明了本文的主题：保护秃鹫的工作正让秃鹫以令人惊讶的速度恢复生机。因此选C。.七选五How to Stop Being OversensitiveIf you want to learn more about how to stop being oversensitive, read on and discover these effective steps that can help you.1_Understand that everyone has different opinions, thoughts and moods.
