Forests are made of trees. Do you know the following types(类型) of forests on Earth?
Temperate Forest
Temperate forests are found all over the world. These forests have four seasons. They are hot or cool at different times of the year. Many kinds of trees grow in a temperate forest. Their leaves change colors with the seasons. Leaves fall off the trees when the weather gets cool. As the weather warms up, the trees sprout.
Boreal Forest
Boreal forests are found in northern parts of the world, like North America, Asia, and Europe. Of the three types of forests, boreal forests have the shortest growing season, about 130 days. These forests are cold, making it difficult for life. The largest boreal forest is in Russia, Europe. Animals there get used to the cold weather by growing thick fur (皮毛).
Tropical Rain Forest
You may guess that it rains a lot in a tropical rainforest. You are right! Tropical rainforests are hot and wet. These forests cover only a tenth of the earth, yet they are home to more kinds of plants and animals than any other places. The biggest tropical rainforest is the Amazon. It is in South America and it’s home to 10% of the world’s plants and animals.
Trees give us oxygen (氧气). They help clean the air. Cutting down too many trees hurts the environment.
31. How many kinds of forests are mentioned in the passage?
A. 4. B. 3. C. 2. D. 13.

【答案】31. B 32. B 33. C 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了几种类型的森林。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Temperate Forest”“Boreal Forest”以及“Tropical Rain Forest”可知一共提到了3种森林。故选B。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Leaves fall off the trees when the weather gets cool. As the weather warms up, the trees sprout.”可知天气变凉时,树叶从树上掉下来,春天来临时,树木会长出新叶子,故划线部分意为“长出新叶子”。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The largest boreal forest is in Russia, Europe.”可知最大的北方针叶林在欧洲的俄罗斯。故选C。
【34题详解】

五、完成句子(本大题有 5 小题,每小题 2 分,10 分)
36. 电影开始时我听到了一首优美的歌曲。(begin)
I heard a beautiful song ________________ the movie.
【答案】at the beginning of
【解析】
【详解】对照中英文可知,空处缺少“开始时”,其英语表达为at the beginning of,为介词短语。故填at the beginning of。
37. 她的手受伤了,她必须去看医生。 (go)
Her hand was hurt. She must ________________.
【答案】go to see a doctor
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,空处缺少“去看医生”的翻译,用英语表达为go to see a doctor,must是情态动词,后面接动词原形。故填go to see a doctor。
38. 那位年轻的警察现在正处于极度危险之中。(be)
The young policeman ________________.
【答案】is in great danger
【解析】
【详解】be in great danger“处于极度危险之中”;描述现在的状态,时态用一般现在时,主语是“The young policeman”,be动词用is。故填is in great danger。
39. 别担心,我们将会竭尽全力去发现真相。(try)
Don’t worry. We’ll ________________ find out the truth.
【答案】try our best to
【解析】
【详解】对照中英文可知,try one’s best to do sth.“尽某人最大的努力做某事”,为动词短语,句中主语是we,所以对应的物主代词是our,will后面跟动词原形。故填try our best to。
40. 大家盼望着明天去北海公园。(look)
Everyone is ________________ to Beihai Park tomorrow.
【答案】looking forward to
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,空处缺少“盼望着”,look forward to“盼望”,为固定短语。look应用现在分词和is构成进行时。故填looking forward to。
