跟踪强化训练(十四)‎ A ‎(2017·安徽合肥高三质检)I don't think I can recall a time when I wasn't aware of the beauty of the ocean.Growing up in Australia,I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side.The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay, I_suddenly_had_the_feeling_of_not_being_able_to_feel_the_ground_with_my_feet_anymore.‎ For my 10th birthday,my sister and I were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef.There were fish in different colors,caves and layers of coral.They made such an impression on me.When I learned that only 1 per cent of Australia's Coral Sea was protected,I was shocked.Australian marine (海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth.But sadly,only 45% of the world's reefs are considered healthy.‎ This statistic is depressing,so it's important for us to do everything to protect them.The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action.I've become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea ‎ activity,which aims to create the largest marine park in the world.It would serve as a place where the ocean's species will all have a safe place forever.‎ Together,Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the movement.Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy,who grew up sailing,admiring the beauty of the ocean,and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,旨在号召人们保护海洋生物。‎ ‎1.From the underlined sentence in Para.1,we can learn the author ________.‎ A.seldom went surfing at the sea B.forgot his experiences about the ocean C.never went back to his hometown D.had a wonderful impression of Halfmoon Bay ‎[解析] 句意猜测题。根据第一段第一、二句可知,作者非常喜欢海洋,画线句意为“我突然有了一种不想再踏上陆地的感觉”,说明Halfmoon Bay给作者留下了一个美好的印象。故选D。‎ ‎[答案] D ‎2.According to the second paragraph,Australian marine life ________.‎ A.is escaping from the Coral Sea gradually B.depends on reefs for living greatly C.may be faced with danger D.is protected better than that in other oceans ‎[解析] 推理判断题。根据第二段中的最后两句可推知,澳大利亚的海洋生物可能处在危险之中。故选C。‎ ‎[答案] C ‎3.Angus and the author create a little video to ________.‎ A.urge more people to take action to protect the marine species B.inspire more people to explore the secret of the ocean C.share their childhood experiences about the ocean D.bring back to people their memory of ocean species ‎[解析] 细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句可知,他们的目的是鼓励人们参与到保护海洋生物的行动中来。故选A。‎ ‎[答案] A B Reuel Tolkien (1892~1973),the British linguist,writer.He created a fantasy novel “The Lord of the Rings” the wellknown trilogy (三部曲).‎ Tolkien was born in Bloemfontein,South Africa.When he was 4 years old,his father died and his family moved back to England.Tolkien graduated from Oxford University when he was 23 years old,and participated in the First World War.During the war,Tolkien suffered from “trench fever” and stayed in the hospital until the end of World War Ⅰ.It was the days in the ‎ hospital that he began his writing career first.‎ After the war,Tolkien became a linguist.He was an editor of the “New English Dictionary” of 1918~1920.However,he was more researching into Anglo-Saxon language which makes his extensive contacts in Britain and the Nordic spread all over the folklore and mythology.‎ In 1937,Tolkien completed his first work “The Hobbit”.Although this was a fairy tale,it was also suitable for adults to read.Because of good sales,the publisher Allen & Unwin convinced Tolkien to write its sequel.This encouraged Tolkien to complete his most famous works the epic (史诗) trilogy “The Lord of the Rings”.The works of writing went on for almost a year with the support from his good friend Lewis.‎ At the beginning “The Lord of the Rings” was similar works for children,but after that writing style quickly became serious and dark.“The Lord of the Rings” was one of the most popular literary works in the 20th century in terms of sales and readers' evaluation.Tolkien's influence is important,for the success of “The Lord of the Rings” makes the fantasy novels of this literature genre (体裁) develop rapidly.‎ 语篇解读:本文是一篇人物传记,介绍了《指环王》的作者瑞尔·托尔金生平。他早年丧父,后来参加了第一次世界大战。战时患上“战壕热”,在医院期间他开始了他的写作生涯。‎ ‎4.When did Tolkien take part in World War I?‎ A.in 1896.
