2019-2020年高考英語二輪復(fù)習(xí) 第一部分 微專題強(qiáng)化練 五 閱讀理解3 詞義猜測題(xx北京C)Transparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window.These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feetas far as most light can reach.Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch.Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone.They never touch anything unless theyre eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass.How does an animal bee seethrough? Its trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light.Light typically travels in a straight line.But some materials slow and scatter(散射)light, bouncing it away from its original path.Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks.Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesnt absorb or scatter light, at least not very much. Light can pass through it without bending or stopping.That means a transparent object doesnt look very different from the surrounding air or water.You dont see ityou see the things behind it.To bee transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light.Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light.But a transparent animal doesnt have pigments, so its tissues wont absorb light.According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy.The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materialsskin, fat, and moreand light moves through each at a different speed.Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters.Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering.Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat.Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be seethrough.Others build a large, clear mass of nonliving jellylike(果凍狀的)material and spread themselves over it.Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge, because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does.They need to look uniform.But how theyre doing it is still unknown.One thing is clear：for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process.When they die, they turn a nontransparent milky white.文章大意：你見過透明生物嗎？本文介紹了透明的海洋生物。作者為我們介紹了物體之所以不能透明的原理，從而讓我們理解沒有什么器官組織的透明生物能夠保持透明的奇特性。1According to Paragraph 1, transparent animals_.Astay in groupsBcan be easily damagedCappear only in deep oceanDare beautiful creatures答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段第三句Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch.可知，透明生物非常脆弱，輕輕的觸碰都可能使其致命，故選B項(xiàng)。2The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means_.AsilentlyBgraduallyCregularlyDpletely答案：D詞義猜測題。文中畫線詞所在句的句意為：其他的物質(zhì)吸收光線，完全阻擋光的傳播途徑。由后面一句中的look different fromother objects around it以及you can see it easily可知，物體不能透明是因?yàn)樯⑸涔饩€和吸收光線，光線被完全吸收時(shí)變得不透明。由此可以判斷句中的dead是副詞，意為“完全地”。3One way for an animal to bee transparent is to_.Achange the direction of light travel Bgather materials to scatter lightCavoid the absorption of lightDgrow bigger to stop light答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段第一句To bee transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light.可知，動物要想變透明就需要阻止身體吸收或散射光線，故C項(xiàng)是變透明的一個(gè)方法。4The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals _.Amove more slowly in deep waterBstay seethrough even after deathCproduce more tissues for their survivalDtake effective action to reduce light spreading答案：D推理判斷題。文章最后一段第一句說較大的透明動物面臨巨大挑戰(zhàn)，因?yàn)樗鼈儽仨毐M可能讓所有身體組織像水一樣降低光線傳播的速度。故選D項(xiàng)。(二)由解釋，猜詞義(xx湖北B)What Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isnt a prerequisite for a modern growyourown lifestyle.On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles，Loe and her family grow，can (裝罐) and preserve much of the food they consume.Loe is a master food preserver，gardener and canning expert.She also operates a website，where she shares her tips and recipes，with the goal of demonstrating that everyone has the ability to control whats on their plate.Loe initially went to school to bee an engineer，but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food.“I got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs(香草) and foods for that fresh flavor，”she said.Engineer by day，Loe learned cooking at night school.She ultimately purchased a small piece of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.“I teach people how to live farmfresh without a farm，”Loe said.Through her website Loe emphasizes that “anybody can do this anywhere.”Got an apartment with a balcony (陽臺)？Plant some herbs.A window？Perfect spot for growing.Start with herbs，she remends，because “theyre very forgiving.”Just a little of the herbs “can take your regular cooking to a whole new level，”she added.“I think its a great place to start.”Then？Try growing something from a seed，she said，like a tomato or some tea.Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does.With every planted food，Loe noted，theres a moment when its bursting with its absolute peak flavor.“I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar.”Loe said.“Canning for me is about knowing whats in your food，knowing where it es from.”In addition to being more in touch with the food shes eating，another joy es from passing this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children：“Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the_bigger_picture，”she said，“that if we dont take care of the earth，no one will.”文章大意：本文講述了特麗薩洛和她的家人以身作則，號召大家自種自吃來保護(hù)環(huán)境的事跡。5The underlined word “prerequisite”(Para.1)is closest in meaning to “_”ArecipeBsubstituteCrequirementDchallenge答案：C詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第一段第二句可知，特麗薩洛和她的家人在僅為十分之一英畝的土地上種植，裝罐和保存了他們食用的許多食物，與第一句中大農(nóng)場與現(xiàn)代自種自吃生活方式之間的關(guān)系形成對比，可知自種自吃并不需要大面積的土地。故選C項(xiàng)。6Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?AThey are used daily.BThey are easy to grow.CThey can grow very tall.DThey can be eaten uncooked.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段第七句Start with herbs，she remends, because “theyre very forgiving.”可知，草本植物很好種植。forgiving意為“寬恕的；寬容的；寬大的”。故選B項(xiàng)。7According to Loe，what is the benefit of canning her planted foods?AIt can preserve their best flavor.BIt can promote her online sales.CIt can better her cooking skills.DIt can improve their nutrition.答案：A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段第二句及第三句可知，洛認(rèn)為每一種種植的食物都有一個(gè)味道達(dá)到頂峰的時(shí)刻，罐裝能將這一時(shí)刻保留。故選A項(xiàng)。8What is the “the bigger picture”(Para.6) that Loe wishes her children to understand?AThe knowledge about good food.BThe way to live a growourown life.CThe joy of getting in touch with foods.DThe responsibility to protect our earth.答案：D詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句可知.that if we dont take care of the earth，no one will.為同位語從句解釋說明the bigger picture的內(nèi)容，即我們要關(guān)注地球，保護(hù)地球是我們的責(zé)任。故選D項(xiàng)。(三)指代詞，猜詞義(xx重慶D)There are many places to go on safari (觀賞野生動物) in Africa，but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswanas Okavango Delta must rank as one of the worlds most exciting wildlife journeys.Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure，providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta.The camps have excellent horses，professional guides and lots of support workers.They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.The morning ride，when the guides take you to

dust kicked up by the horses，the romance of Africa es to life.Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine.Looking back on your day，you will find it hard to deny that a horseback safari is as close as you will ever e to answering the call of the wild.文章大意：本文介紹了非洲觀賞野生動物的野營項(xiàng)目，在這個(gè)項(xiàng)目中，不同時(shí)間段你可以享受到不同的美景與驚喜。9What does the underlined word “They”

In the 1990s, a third of all plaints to tourism officials in Beijing concerned the design, and the bad smell of public toilets. China has battled smelly toilets for at least 2,000 years. In the Kingdom of Wei (220266 A. D. ), visitors to the palace bathrooms would find boxes to cover their nose and ward_off unpleasant smells. Both flushing (沖水) toilets and toilet paper were invented in China, however, only for the use of the emperor. Today Chinese scientists have claimed victory in their battle to improve public restrooms, introducing a bacterial spray that can almost get rid of all the bad smell. First, a set of six types of bacteria work to break down the smelly pounds and then a perfume made from orange skin lightly scents (使芳香) the air. The “smellfree toilet” study from the Chinese Academy of Science was declared the “ultimate” cure to an_“urgent”_national_issue. “Five scientists have worked on this from xx to the beginning of this year，” said Dr. Yan Zhiying, a bacteriologist with the academys Chengdu Institute of Biology, adding that they had spent 140,000 on the project. “Some local government officials here visited a sewage (污水) plant and saw that the treatment technology had e from Japan. They wanted a homegrown solution so they asked us to work on it，” he added. “We obtained bacteria from all types of waste from humans, pigs, chicken and ducks, and we tested our pounds one by one，” he said. “The smells ing out of public toilets, or trash cans, are made up of more than 160 different pounds，” he explained, adding that their bacteria spray can change and absorb many of them. He boasted that the Chinese formula (配方), which costs only around 5 per liter, has no side effects and can be used to remove any bad smell. 文章大意：這是一篇說明文，介紹的是中科院成都生物研究所發(fā)明了一種細(xì)菌噴灑劑，能夠除去各種異味。13The underlined words “ward off” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by _.Akeep outBtake outCgive outDe out答案：A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞前的find boxes to cover their noses可知用盒子把鼻子蓋住是為了擋住難聞的氣味。keep out意為“阻止進(jìn)入”，符合語境。take out意為“拿出”，give out意為“分發(fā)；發(fā)出”，e out意為“出版；被揭曉”，均不符合語境。14The underlined phrase “an urgent national issue” refers to _.Athe treatment of sewageBa horrifying experienceCthe bad smell of public toiletsDthe 160 smelly pounds答案：C詞義猜測題。全文的焦點(diǎn)是中國公廁的臭味難聞，現(xiàn)在中科院正針對這個(gè)問題進(jìn)行研究，顯然這個(gè)全國性的緊急問題就是廁所的臭味。故選C項(xiàng)。15Which has not been mentioned as an advantage of the bacteria spray?ALow price.BNo side effects.CRemoving bad smells.DBeautiful design.答案：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)文章最后一段He boasted that the Chinese formula, which costs only around 5 per liter, has no side effects and can be used to remove any bad smell. 可知，這個(gè)除味噴劑的優(yōu)點(diǎn)有：價(jià)格低、沒有副作用、可去除臭味。文中沒有提到D項(xiàng)(設(shè)計(jì)美觀)。故選D項(xiàng)。16Which can we infer after the spray is used in toilets in China?APeople neednt use flushing toilets.BA perfume is given off in the air.CTourists plaints will be reduced.DBacteria break down smelly pounds.答案：C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知，三分之一的游客投訴是關(guān)于公廁的臭味問題，下文講到中科院已經(jīng)研制出一種除味噴劑，可以去除廁所的異味。由此可以推斷，這種噴劑在中國的公廁中噴灑后，游客的投訴應(yīng)該會減少。
