The consequence, if the bubbles(气泡) accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent body—thus the name. If the bubbles from in his lungs or his brain, the consequence can be ‎ death.     Other air-breathing animals also suffer this decompression(减压) sickness if they surface too fast:whales, for example. And so, long ago, did ichthyosaurs. That these ancient sea animals got the bends can be seen from their bones. If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply. This kills the cells in the bone, and consequently weakens it, sometimes to the point of collapse. Fossil(化石) bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends.     Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study of ichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past. What he particularly wanted to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years. To this end, he and his colleagues traveled the world’s natural-history museums, looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic period and from the later Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.     When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. More than 15% of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered the bends before they died, but not a single Triassic specimen(标本) showed evidence of that sort of injury.     If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quickly—and, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr Rothschild thinks happened He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change.     Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape a predator(捕食动物) such as a large shark. One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of large sharks and crocodiles, both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches. Triassic oceans, by contrast, were mercifully shark-and crocodile-free. In the Triassic, then, ichthyosaurs were top of the food chain. In the Jurassic and Cretaceous, they were prey(猎物) as well as predator—and often had to make a speedy exit as a result. 1.Which of the following is a typical symptom of the bends? A.A twisted body. B.A gradual decrease in blood supply. C.A sudden release of nitrogen in blood. D.A drop in blood pressure. 2.The purpose of Rothschild s study is to see                          . A.how often ichthyosaurs caught the bends B.how ichthyosaurs adapted to decompression C.why ichthyosaurs bent their bodies D.when ichthyosaurs broke their bones 3.Rothschilds finding stated in Paragraph 4                         . A.confirmed his ‎ assumption B.speeded up his research process C.disagreed with his assumption D.changed his research objectives 4.Rothschild might have concluded that ichthyosaurs                        . A.failed to evolve an anti-decompression means B.gradually developed measures against the bends C.died out because of large sharks and crocodiles D.evolved an anti-decompression means but soon lost it ‎4.    When I was in fourth grade, I worked part-time as a paperboy. Mrs. Stanley was one of my customers. She’d watch me coming down her street, and by the time I’d biked up to her doorstep, there’d be a cold drink waiting. I’d sit and drink while she talked. Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband, “Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” she’d say. The first time she said that, soda went up my nose.‎ ‎    I told my father how Mrs. Stanley talked as if Mr. Stanley were still alive. Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile, and maybe she’d work it out of her system. So that’s what I did, and it turned out Dad was right. After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery (墓地).‎ ‎    I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn’t see Mrs. Stanley for several years. Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser. She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy. Four years before, she’d had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with. Now she had friends. Her husband was gone, but life went on.‎ ‎    I live in the city now, and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids. She asks me how I’m doing. When I don’t say “fine,” she sticks around to hear my problems. She’s lived in the city most of her life, but she knows about community. Community isn’t so much a place as it is a state of mind. You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care, and not because they’re getting paid to do so. Sometimes it’s good to just smile, nod your head and listen.‎ ‎1.Why did soda go up the author’s nose one time? A.He was talking fast. B.He was shocked. C.He was in a hurry. D.He was absent-minded. 2.Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs.‎ ‎ Stanley? A.He enjoyed the drink. B.He wanted to be helpful. C.He took the chance to rest. D.He tried to please his dad. 3.Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase “work it out of her system” in Paragraph 2? A.Recover from her sadness. B.Move out of the neighborhood. C.Turn to her old friends. D.Speak out about her past.‎ ‎4.What does the author think people in a community should do?‎ A.Open up to others. B.Depend on each other. C.Pay for others’ help. D.Care about one another.‎ 二、七选五 ‎5.根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Travel tips that are no longer true We all love an inside trip, but some of the classic tips for travelers no longer hold true. ①______‎ ‎1. Book a plane ticket far in advance to save money.‎ This myth may have been true back in the 1960s, when flights were less common than they are today. Back then, the demand for a flight would naturally increase as the date approached, there being few other options.②______According to recent studies, the best time to buy a domestic ticket was between six and seven weeks before.‎ ‎2. ③______‎ Don’t ignore the benefits of going straight to the hotel to negotiate (商谈) a good deal on a room. Many hotel chains offer rate guarantees and encourage customers to book directly. Hotels ‎ also frequently have discounts or some offers that third-party websites don’t know. Apart from this, hotels give the upgrades, not the booking agents. ‎ ‎3. Avoid street food.‎ ‎④______If this means standing up at a cheap street stall (摊位), then follow the crowd. Don’t sit down at a restaurant and spend four times more, on the simple assumption that it’s the only safe option. Can you see what’s going on in the kitchen?‎ ‎4. Carry your money in a special pocket or pouch.‎ This is the fastest way to stand out from locals — who will have their money in a wallet or purse. Only take what you need when you leave your hotel room.⑤______‎ A. When in Rome, do what the Romans do.‎ B. And make sure to put your wallet in a front pocket.‎ C. This is only true if you are buying products that are heavily taxed.‎ D. Let yourself relax in a warm room for one or two people in single beds.‎ E. Check the updates on these tall tales (说大话) to save cash and add experience to your trip.‎ F. These days, many alternatives for the most popular routes mean that demand stays steady.‎ G.

C〔提示:细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“First，you should avoid any containers that have been used to store chemicals» as well as treated wood. ”可知，应该避免使用任何储存过化 学物质的容器以及经过处理的木材，所以选C项。〕 2. A〔提示：词义猜测题。根据“it allows the water in it to drain when necessary ” 中的 “ allows the water in it”和 “ when necessary” 可知，此处知意思是“当有必要的时候让水流出来”.所以A项正确。〕 3. D〔提示:推理判断题。根据最后一段中提到的：这需要-个不同于花卉园艺的过程。和你所在地区一家供应店的员工 谈谈他们可以帮助你为你想种植的蔬菜选择合适的容器。 由此可知，蔬菜园艺要使用特殊的容器。〕 4. B〔提示:推理判断题。根据文章的第一段可知，那些喜欢园 艺，又没有合适地方的人会对此感兴趣，所以选B项。〕‎ ‎2.答案：BDB 解析：1. B〔提示:细节理解题。根据第一本书简介中提到的“a young Nigerian woman”；第二本羊简介中提到如“ femininity”；第三 本书简介中提到的“a young girl”和第四本书简介中提到的 “Five women”可知，这四本书知描写了女性。〕 2. D〔提示:细节理解题。根据每本书不同版本的价格可知，如果购买一本书所有不同的版本，Force of Nature是最贵的。〕 3. B〔提示:推理判断题。根据书籍 Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur 中提到的 “Milk and Honey takes readers through a journey of the most hitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look. ”可知，Rupi Kaur在她而书里，向读者讲述了个人生活中的不同情感。〕 ‎ 答案： 1.A; 2.B; 3.C; 4.A 解析： 1.细节理解题。根据the bends可定位到首段。由The consequence ... is sharp pain and a bent body — thus the name. ”可知答案。a bent body 与 a twisted body 是同义转换。由第二句的“Nitrogen dissolved in his blood is suddenly liberated by the reduction of pressure.”可知,此处是指 the ‎ bends形成的原因,故C、D项错误,而B项文章没有提及。 2.推理判断题。题干中的关键词是Rothschild’s study,由此可定位到第三段的前两句。根据“to find out how widespread the problem was in the past …to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression” 可知正确答案为B。 3.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“…he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. ”可知,Rothschild的假设理论与在研究过程中得出的结果是相反的,故选C。 4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知,Rothschild认为鱼龙在进化过程中反减压方式进化失败,故正确答案为A。‎ ‎4.答案：1.B; 2.B; 3.A; 4.D 解析：1.推理判断题.根据第二段Mrs. Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband. "Mr. Stanley and I went shopping this morning,” she’d say.可推测,作者第一次听到Mrs. Stanley说这些话时是极为震惊的。 故选B。 2.推理判断题:根据第三段Dad said she was probably lonely, and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile 可知,作者倾听Mrs. Stanley 说话是为了帮助她。故选B. 3.词义猜测题。根据第二段最后一句After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery(墓地)可知,Mrs. Stanley看来已从失去丈夫的悲痛中走了出来,说明画线部分的意思“从悲伤中恢复过来”。故选A。 4.推理判断题。根据最后一段You find it whenever people ask how you’re doing because they care,and not because they’re getting paid to do so,以及本文所讲的故事 作者以前关心Mrs. Stanley,后来又被自家的送报员所关心,由此可推断作者想要表明的观点:社区邻里间应该相互关心。故选D。 误解分析:不能误选A项。open up to others意为 “对别人敞开心扉”。心扉指的是心的门扇,比喻人的内心。敞开心扉是指在一个人面前把自己的心毫无隐瞒地表现出来,也指分享自己的心情,是一种乐观开朗的表现。而文中作者通过自身的经历告诉我们要相互关心。‎ 全文翻译 ‎    四年级的时候,我兼职做报童。斯坦利太太是我的顾客之一。她会看着我走到她所居住的大街,走到她家门前时,会给我准备一杯冷饮。她讲话时我总会坐着喝冷饮。‎ ‎    斯坦利太太讲述的内容多是关于她死去的丈夫。 “今天早上斯坦利先生和我去购物了。”她说道。她第一次这样说时,我大为吃惊。‎ 我告诉父亲,斯坦利太太说话的样子似乎斯坦利先生还活着。爸爸说她可能很孤独,我应该坐着听, 还得不时地点头微笑,这样也许她会从失去丈夫的悲痛中恢复过来。于是我那样做了,结果证明爸爸是对的。不久后,斯坦利太太似乎把丈夫遗忘在了墓地。‎ ‎    我终于不再送报纸了,几年来也没见过斯坦利太太。然后在一个教堂募捐活动的现场,斯坦利太太和我不期而遇。她正在舀土豆泥,看起来很高兴。四年前,为了与人交谈,她还不得已为报童提供一杯饮料。 现在,她有朋友了。她的丈夫去世了,但生活还得继续。‎ ‎    现在,我住在城里,我的报童是一个叫埃德娜的女士,她有三个孩子。她问我近况怎样。当我没有说 “好”的时候,她就会坚持倾听我的问题。她一生大部分时间都住在城市,但她了解社区。与其说社区是一个地方,倒不如说它是一种心境。每当有人因为关心而问你日子过得怎么样而不是因为要得到报酬而做这些时,你会感到这一点。有时只是笑一笑,点点头, 听一听就好了。‎ 二、七选五 ‎5.答案： 1.
