she wants things done.But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Ask anyone in business.They will tell you that it is a jungle out there.The expression probably began because a jungle is filled with wild animals and unknown dangers that threaten people.People in business have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there.They must not be led into making bogus investments.Bogus means something that is not real.Nobody is sure how the word got started.But it began to appear in American newspapers in the 1800s.A newspaper in Boston,Massachusetts,said the word came from a criminal whose name was Borghese.Borghese wrote checks to people although he did not have 第 4 页 enough money in the bank.After he wrote the checks,he would disappear.So,people who were paid with his checks received nothing.The newspaper said Americans shortened and changed the criminals name Borghese to Bogus.People trying to earn money must be also aware of the risk of being ripped off.A writer for a magazine said he first saw the expression used in 1971.It was on a sign that a student carried during a protest demonstration at a university.The message on the sign was that the student felt cheated.To be successful,a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks.This expression means to get to the bottom or the most important part of something.For example,a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price.You get down to brass tacks when you say,“it sounds good,but how much does it cost Word expert Charles Funk thinks the expression comes from sailors on ships.They clean the bottom of a boat.When they have removed all the dirt,they are down to the copper pieces that hold the ship together.So,if we get down to brass tacks,we can prevent rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money in that jungle out there.And,some good luck will help,too.51.Why do people say money talks A.Because the rich tend to decide a thing.B.Because money can tell us something.第 5 页 C.Because it is hard to earn much money.D.Because everyone loves to have money.52.My uncle is in a jungle out there,which means .A.he will fight against wild animals B.he is interested to go through a jungle C.he will face many difficulties soon D.he is a success in his own business 53.When you ask how much it cost,it means .A.you declare you wont be cheated B.you get down to the real issues C.you care nothing about the quality D.you are always caring about money 54.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.many English words have their interesting stories B.brass is a necessary piece of equipment of a ship C.many businessmen have been cheated in life D.Charles Funk has created many interesting words 【参考答案】5154、ACBA 【四川省凉山州 2021 第二次诊断性测试】B

affecting the ocean chemistry and potentially harming sea life.Montana State University scientist Robert Dore has been researching the water in the Pacific Ocean for almost two decades.Weve been going to the same spot in the Pacific Ocean,and we try and characterize long-term change in the open ocean environment.And one of the key things that we measure is COx levels.And Weve been able to record this increasing quantity of atmospheric CO,into the ocean.Scientists expected that as atmospheric CO2 increased,more and 一 more of the carbon dioxide would be absorbed into the ocean,affecting the chemical balance of the sea water,with a potentially harmful impact on shellfish and coral in particular.As carbon dioxide dissolves in the water,or seawater in this case,it forms a weak acid,carbonic acid,Dore explains.And therefore,as the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere goes up and that exchanges with the surface seawater,it drives the pH down,and makes it more 第 7 页 acidic.The seawater samples Dow and his colleagues have analyzed confirm what the theory predicts.The effect was particular striking at about 250 meters down,and again at 500 meters.Dore and his colleagues came up with two possible explanations.It could be that surface water picked up CO2 and then moved to those depths.Or there could be a biological explanation.Its important to realize that the oceans are really becoming acidic.And it can have negative impacts on a whole variety of sea life from fish to coral.Its potentially catastrophic.35.What can be the best title of the passage A.Sea Life Facing Danger B.Scientist Researching Seawater C.Oceans Becoming More Acidic D.Climate Change Affecting Seawater 36.With the increase of atmospheric C02，A.more corals will appear in the sea B.the surface water is becoming warmer C.the chemical balance of the seawater is affected D.the pH of the ocean out here has been increasing 37.Which of the following shows the process of the impact of 第 8 页 atmospheric C02 on sea life a.Sea life is endangered.b.C02 goes into the surface water.c.The ocean chemistry is affected.d.C02 levels in the atmosphere go up e.C02 decreases the pH and makes the seawater more acidic.A.abcde B.dbcea C.aebed D.edcba 38.Scientist Robert Dore came to the conclusion based on A.his research and analysis B.the expectation of other scientists C.some former theory D.a major cause
