Unit 4 Pygmalion 李仕才 一、閱讀理解。 Fans of the movie Finding Nemo may remember the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin at the bottom of a trench. But in reality this “monster”， a black seadevil， is only about 9 cm long， which would make it about a third of the size of Dory and potentially smaller than Marlin or Nemo. While this inaccuracy may seem harmless， it could cause problems for future conservation efforts， as people are more likely to support conservation of adorable rather than scary­looking animals. The black seadevil is just one of the mysterious “monsters”. From 2000 to 2010， scientists described about 1，200 new species in the Census of Marine Life. While this figure may seem astonishing， a further 5，000 individual dead creatures are in specimen（標本） jars， waiting to be described. Specimens must be methodically collected， identified， and then the identity of new deep­water species must be confirmed. If we call unusual deep­sea animals monsters， then we may harm their conservation as people are unlikely to be connected with them or care about saving them. On the other hand， their rarity clearly makes them popular on social media sites. For other species， this has already resulted in increases in illegal trading for unusual pets. Deep­sea species may potentially become illegally obtained specimens or food. Humans may end up eating these animals of the deep sea to extinction before their species are even known to science. Every habitat on earth is interconnected， and whatever we as humans do has an influence on marine ecosystems. In reality， about 80% of our oxygen is produced by microorganisms（微生物） in the oceans. This makes our oceans both the lungs and lifeblood of our planet and we must all try harder to save them. 【解題導(dǎo)語】　本文主要從電影里對深海物種的不準確認識，談到了保護深海物種的重要性。 1.What can we know about the black seadevil in reality？ A.People benefit greatly from the oxygen produced by it. B.Its body size is a big threat to fish like Dory and Nemo. C.Its scary appearance will cause problems for conservation. D.People didn’t know much about it when filming Finding Nemo. D　解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin”并結(jié)合第二段的整體內(nèi)容可知，拍攝這部電影時，人們對這種物種了解很少，故選D。 2.What does the author think of the progress of describing new species？ A.Acceptable.　　　　　　 B．Surprising. C.Unsatisfying. D．Hopeless. C　解析：觀點態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第四段的最后一句可推知，作者認為科學(xué)家對海洋新物種的研究不能令人滿意，故選C。 3.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 7 probably refer to？ A.Their popularity on social media sites. B.Their rarity among sea creatures. C.Their conservation being harmed. D.Their importance being ignored. A　解析：代詞指代題。根據(jù)第七段的第一句可推知，此處的this指代上文稀有物種在社交媒體網(wǎng)站上受青睞的狀況，故選A。 4.What can we infer about those unusual sea animals？ A.They are the lungs and lifeblood of our planet. B.Confirming their identity is very urgent for protection. C.Most of them are becoming illegally obtained specimens. D.Adorable ones are more likely to be posted on social media sites. B　解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段可推知，科學(xué)地認知稀有物種對于對這些物種的保護很緊迫，故選B。 二、單句語法填空 1．We had no ________ (hesitate) in helping the sufferers when the terrible earthquake hit the country. 答案：hesitation　have no hesitation in doing ... “毫不猶豫地做……”。 2．________ (classify) so many books in libraries usually takes them lots of time. 答案：Classifying　句子中缺少主語，且指一般性情況，故應(yīng)填動名詞classifying，在句中作主語。 3．Generally ________ (speak), youths of eighteen are too young for such work. 答案：speaking　generally speaking “一般來說”。 4．What you said has led to the ________(mistake) belief that smoking is not harmful. 答案：mistaken　修飾名詞belief應(yīng)用形容詞，故填mistaken “錯誤的”。 5．The school makes it clear that essays from online should not be passed off ________being written by the students. 答案：as　pass ... off as ... “把……看作或冒充成……”。 6．________if we invited them to come here for a party instead? 答案：What　固定句式what if “倘使/如果……將會怎樣？”。 7．Parents should teach their children to behave ________(proper) in public. 答案：properly　此處應(yīng)用副詞來修飾動詞behave, 故填 properly。 8．They made rude ________(remark) about her appearance. 答案：remarks　make remarks/a remark about ... “對……發(fā)表評論”。 9．The information you gathered is ________ great help to me. 答案：of　“of＋抽象名詞”相當(dāng)于其對應(yīng)的形容詞，of great help＝very helpful “非常有幫助”。 10．________(take) according to the instructions, the medicine has no side effect. 答案：Taken　所給動詞與其邏輯主語medicine之間為被動關(guān)系，故用過去分詞作狀語。 三、完形填空。 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。 On the night of October 16th，coming up at ten o'clock, my mother prepared what would be my father's last meal.That week he worked __1__ shifts.He started at midnight.

The next morning, Susan takes the box to her dad and said, “This is for you, Dad！” But if he opened it, he found it was empty. “Why do you give me an empty boxes?
