Which animal has the largest ears? You might think it’s the elephant, and you’d be kind of right.
As the largest living land animal, the African elephant does have the biggest ears, according to Mary Holden, an animal expert. But compared with the size of its body, the animal with the largest ears is the long-eared jerboa (跳鼠). It’s a kind of nocturnal animal that is very active at night. They live on insects and live in the deserts of China.
The long-eared jerboa is about 10 cm long and it has a very long tail. Its ears, about 5 cm long, are about 50% the length (长度) of its body. Though the ears of the African elephant are about 1.2 meters long, it's only about 17% of their body length.
Why such big ears? “We believe that large ears have to do with warmer environments,” Mary said. “And if you look at African and Asian elephants, African elephant ears are much larger than Asian elephant ears, because African elephants live in a hotter climate.”
That’s the same case with the long-eared jerboa. Its ears are large and thin, and they have many tiny blood vessels (血管). While running through the ears, the blood lets the heat go into the air. Therefore, the animal can cool itself off quickly.
Large ears help the long-eared jerboa to live in hot and dry environment. More importantly, they help the animal easily hear sounds coming from the insects or its enemies. That’s why it can survive in the deserts.
27. What does the underlined word “nocturnal” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Lazy. B. Small. C. Smart. D. Night.
28. Which of the following animals is the long-eared jerboa?
A. B. C. D.
29. Why do African elephants have larger ears than Asian elephants?
A. Because they live on insects and plants. B. Because they live in hotter and drier places.
C. Because they have many tiny blood vessels. D. Because they need bigger ears to keep warm.
30. How do big ears help the long-eared jerboa to live in the deserts?
①By leading it to find food. ②By helping it cool off quickly.
③By helping it save energy. ④By keeping it away from danger.
A. ①②④ B. ①③④ C. ②③④ D. ①②③
31. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Different kinds of elephants in the world. B. An expert's research on African elephants.
C. The animal with the largest ears in the world. D. Reasons that animals can survive in the deserts.
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】

【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The long-eared jerboa is about 10 cm long and it has a very long tail. Its ears, about 5 cm long, are about 50% the length (长度) of its body.”可知,长耳跳鼠长约10厘米,尾巴很长。它的耳朵长约5厘米,约为身体长度的50%。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据“African elephant ears are much larger than Asian elephant ears, because African elephants live in a hotter climate.”可知,非洲象的耳朵比亚洲象的耳朵大得多,因为非洲象生活在更炎热的气候中。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据“While running through the ears, the blood lets the heat go into the air. Therefore, the animal can cool itself off quickly... More importantly, they help the animal easily hear sounds coming from the insects or its enemies.”可知,大耳朵可以帮助长耳跳鼠寻找食物、快速冷却、让它远离危险。故选A。
【31题详解】

【55题详解】
句意:虽然你只会说“hello”、“please”和“thank you.”,但是这些简单的表达可以产生很大的不同。根据空后两句关系可知,空处表让步,备选词“although虽然”符合,可引导让步状语从句,放句首时,首字母大写。故填Although。
【56题详解】
句意:当您学习外语时,您也了解有关讲话者的文化。根据“you also learn... the culture of its speakers.”及备选词可知,空处指了解“有关”讲话者的文化,备选词“about关于”符合句意。learn about意为“学到有关”。故填about。
【57题详解】
句意:那是真得很有趣。根据“You can find that some expressions match certain gestures (手势).”及备选词可知,像一些表情搭配一些手势都很有趣的,故空处指“有趣的”,备选词“interesting有趣的”符合句意,在句中作表语。故填interesting。

第二节
阅读短文,根据语篇要求填空,使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。
Interest is the best teacher, which helps us better study the unknown world and realize self-growth. Two middle school students shared their stories.
After a teacher at my primary school told us a story about a famous pilot, I asked my mom to take me to a large toy shop. Different kinds of equipment (设备) for making model planes ____62____ sold in it. I started making them by myself. After building each model, I painted it and put it on my desk. And I read all about the plane and the people ____63____ flew it.
— Becky
When I was about eight, my teacher said that yogurt is made ____64____ milk. I doubted that, so I asked my sister ____65____ help me do experiment (做实验) with it. We put some milk in a bowl and took it outside, and then left it in ____66____ sun. After a few days, it looked like yogurt but tasted terrible! After that, we did other experiments with food and we both became more and more interested in science.
— Joshua
【答案】62. were
63. who##that
64. from 65. to
66. the
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了两名学生分享的趣味经历。Becky通过制作飞机模型培养了兴趣和知识;Joshua通过实验验证酸奶的制作,激发了他对科学的兴趣和探索。
【62题详解】
句意:在里面销售着不同种类的制作模型飞机的设备。句子主语是“Different kinds of equipment”,表示复数意义,结合句意可知此处使用被动语态,又根据“I asked my mom to take me to a large toy shop.”可知时态为一般过去时,因此结构为“were + 动词的过去分词”。故填were。
【63题详解】
句意:我阅读了关于飞机以及驾驶它的人的所有内容。句中使用的是定语从句修饰先行词“people”,定语从句的作用是进一步说明这些“people”是谁,即“飞行这些飞机的人”。在定语从句中,who 和 that 都可以作为关系代词指代“people”。故填who/that。
【64题详解】
句意:当我大约八岁时,我的老师说酸奶是由牛奶制成的。在这种情况下,made from用来表示一种物质或材料经过加工或变化后形成了另一种物质。比如酸奶是由牛奶通过发酵过程制成的,牛奶发生了变化,故填from。
【65题详解】
句意:我对此表示怀疑,所以我让我的妹妹帮我做实验。根据句子的结构可知,固定短语“ask sb to do sth”。故填to。
【66题详解】
句意:我们把一些牛奶放进碗里,带到外面,然后把它放在阳光下。“sun”指的是特定的太阳,属于特指名词,因此需要用定冠词“the”来修饰。故填the。

One day, Camila’s father invited her to visit a natural park with him. During their flying trip to the town of Dangriga, Camila’s father explained that Glover’s Reef was one of the largest coral reef systems (珊瑚礁系统) in the world. He said that many coral reefs around the world were dying from pollution and overfishing.
When they arrived at Glover’s Reef, Camila got excited by its beautiful view. The next morning, Camila and her father entered the blue waters of the park. The underwater world surprised Camila. She saw how the plants and animals of the reef lived together perfectly. It was the most exciting experience of her life.
As they left the water, Camila and her father heard a loud noise. They turned around and saw a large boat filled with tourists, talking and shouting. They were racing toward the reef area. “They’ll scare the fish!” shouted Camila. She watched the boat speed away, feeling angry and upset. At lunch, Camila ate her meal in silence.
When she finished eating, she turned to her father. “I’m going to do something helpful for our planet’s coral reefs,” she said.
When she got home, Camila started a petition (请愿书) on the internet. It read: Governments of the world, please help the ocean’s coral reefs. Within one year, three countries passed laws to protect their coral reefs.

Which animal has the largest ears? You might think it’s the elephant, and you’d be kind of right.
As the largest living land animal, the African elephant does have the biggest ears, according to Mary Holden, an animal expert. But compared with the size of its body, the animal with the largest ears is the long-eared jerboa (跳鼠). It’s a kind of nocturnal animal that is very active at night. They live on insects and live in the deserts of China.
The long-eared jerboa is about 10 cm long and it has a very long tail. Its ears, about 5 cm long, are about 50% the length (长度) of its body. Though the ears of the African elephant are about 1.2 meters long, it's only about 17% of their body length.
Why such big ears? “We believe that large ears have to do with warmer environments,” Mary said. “And if you look at African and Asian elephants, African elephant ears are much larger than Asian elephant ears, because African elephants live in a hotter climate.”
That’s the same case with the long-eared jerboa. Its ears are large and thin, and they have many tiny blood vessels (血管). While running through the ears, the blood lets the heat go into the air. Therefore, the animal can cool itself off quickly.
Large ears help the long-eared jerboa to live in hot and dry environment. More importantly, they help the animal easily hear sounds coming from the insects or its enemies. That’s why it can survive in the deserts.

The toothbrush is a common thing that most people use every day. ____32____ Believe it or not, the toothbrush has a very long and interesting history.
____33____ People chewed (咀嚼) on the small twigs (嫩枝) to clean their teeth. It might seem old- fashioned, but it worked well.
The first “modern” toothbrushes were made in China around 1498. These toothbrushes were made of pig hair and were much more comfortable to use than the twigs. In 1780, William Addis of England came up with the idea of making small holes in a bone and putting bristles (粗纤维) into the holes. ____34____ This design worked much better than the twigs and pig hair brushes and quickly became very popular.

Today, toothbrushes come in all shapes and sizes. And they are made from all kinds of materials.____36____
Who could think such a simple tool could have such an interesting story? The next time you reach for your toothbrush, take a moment to think about the people who brought the useful invention for us.
