However，playing sports can have____21____effects on children. It may produce feelings of poor self-respect or aggressive behavior in some children. According to research on kids and sports，40,000,000 kids play sports in the US. Of these,18,000,000 say they have been____22____at or called names while playing sports.

Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main____24____of too much aggression in children’s sports. They believe children____25____aggressive adult behavior.

For each of theme there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) My six-year-old granddaughter, Caitlynd and I stopped at Tim Horton’s shop for a blueberry cake. As we were going out of the door，a young teenage boy was coming in. This young man had no hair on the sides of his head and a set of blue spiked (竖起的) hair on top of it. One of his nostrils (鼻孔) was pierced, and a ring ran through the hole and a chain went across his face and was attached to a ring he was wearing in his ear. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under the other. Caitlynd, who was walking ahead of me, stopped at once when she saw the teenager. I thought he’d scared her and she'd frozen on the spot. I was wrong. My granddaughter backed up against the door and opened it as wide as it would go. Now I was face to face with the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His gracious response was a polite “Thank you very much.”. On our way to the car, I praised Caitlynd for her manners in holding open the door for the young man. She didn’t seem to be troubled by his appearance but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmother s talk about freedom of self-expression and allowing people their differences was suitable. I wanted to be ready. As it turned out, the person who needed the talk was me. The only thing Caitlynd noticed about the teenager, was the fact that his arms were full. “He would have a hard time in opening the door.” I saw the partially shaved head, the set of spiked hair, the piercings and the chain. She saw a person carrying something under each arm and heading toward a door. In the future, I hope to get down on her level and raise my sights. 36. What did the author think of the young man at first sight? A. Polite. B. Common. C. Frightening. D. Fashionable. 37. Caitlynd helped the young man because _____. A. she was not scared at all B. she was in favor of his dressing code C. she wanted to avoid him D. it would be difficult for him to open the door 38. The underlined sentence suggests that ____. A. people should have more freedom to express themselves B. the author didn’t know how to give a talk on freedom C. a talk on freedom was useless for the granddaughter D. the author was ashamed of herself 39. The author intends to tell us that ____. A. we shouldn’t judge a person by his look B. we should allow people more freedom to dress differently C. we should be more helpful and tolerant to strange dressing of the young D. we shouldn’t be too particular about people in life (B) Below is a housing guide for students going to London. University accommodation (住所) offices Many university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords. Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization. The advantage of using your university accommodation is that you can get support if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students. Property papers: Loot and Renting Loot is an important source of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: www.loot.com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers. Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their website is at www.renting.co.uk. Accommodation agencies The majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have a large number of accommodations to choose from. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters. Noticeboards Around the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertisements from landlords can be problematic. Word of mouth Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth. It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students. However, don’t suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend, it is necessarily going to be better than that found through any other source. Family Faced with the very high rents charged in London, some students and their parents will consider buying as an alternative. In some cases this might be a good choice. 40. What is the advantage of using Loot? A. It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting. B. It gives you personal information about other co-renters. C. Their website is designed mainly for students. D. There are some good bargains. 41. A good agent can help you ______. A. know more people B. find cheap accommodation C. get the right accommodation quickly D. get free information about most accommodations 42. The information passed on by word of mouth is important because ______. A. it is better than that found through any other source B. it helps you find some of the best housing never advertised C. the final year students always offer better information D. the landlords have little valuable information (C) What happens when we try foreign dishes for the first time? More often than not it is like finding ourselves in circumstances different from what is comfortably familiar We hesitate and declare them unacceptable. Yet there are no universal standards for good cuisine (烹饪); there’s only badly cooked food. We may not like some foreign dishes but that has nothing to do with their being inferior or superior. It has everything to do with how removed they are from what we know. A few years back I wasn’t particularly fond of Indian dishes with their strong spices. Then an Indian family moved in next door and I immediately became friends with the lady. Being very friendly people they kept asking me over. Seeing as I had no choice, I gave in, went over and waited in horror. They served a lot of strange-looking dishes, whose aroma (香味) was inviting enough for me to sample them. And I felt sorry I did. My tongue felt like it was on fire! But I saw it through to the end so as not to endanger our neighbourly relationship. Needless to say, I was asked to come back for more. It took a few months, but I have actually come to love some hot Indian curries and overly honeyed desserts. In contrast, American steaks and burgers now strike me as downright dull, although I used to love them. Then there’s Japanese cuisine, which I associated with a smelly sushi bar next door until I went on a trip to Japan. I was served dishes of suspicious smell day in day out and, although they didn’t seem particularly delicious, upon my return home I found myself repeatedly wandering into that sushi bar around the corner. The smell I had thought terribly fishy before now seemed familiar and mouth-watering. In short, I have acquired the taste for some foreign dishes but not for all the food of any particular cuisine. In a way, the ability to acquire the taste for new foods has to do with a person’s ability to accept a culture. The ‘acquired taste’ for food goes beyond a taste bud (味蕾) experience. It has a lot to do with what a person associates the food with, like friendly neighbours or a memorable journey. Similarly, many of us find our mother’s cooking incomparable. But that isn’t necessarily because of our mother’s superior kitchen skills but because we associate her cooking with the warmth of home. 43. Which of the following statements is true of the Indian family? A. They scared the author a lot. B. They were curious about the author. C They made pleasant smelling dishes. D. They got an apology from the author. 44. Concerning Japan and Japanese food, the author says that _________. A. she was seldom served traditional food on her trip. B. she loved Japanese food from her first day in Japan. C. she was surprised at her actions after she returned home. D. she is uninterested in the taste of the strangest Japanese dishes. 45. According to the last paragraph, acquiring new tastes _________. A. is a sign of how open-minded a person is. B. depends on how sensitive your taste buds are. C. is like making new friends or going on a journey. D. becomes easier if your mother isn’t a great cook. 46. Which statement best summarizes the overall message of the article? A. Travelling is the best way to acquire new tastes. B. The smells and sight of food are often misleading. C. The stranger the food, the more difficult it is to like it. D. Experiences are crucial in determining food preferences. Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. eMedicine is here Tired of feeling "like the walking dead," Amber Young sat on her bed with tears one recent Friday night in Woodbury, Minnesota. Then she logged onto an Internet site run by an online health care company and "met" with a doctor hundreds of miles away in Texas. After talking with the physician via instant messaging and then by telephone, Young was diagnosed with an upper respiratory illness (上呼吸道疾病), "I was as suspicious as anyone about getting treated over the computer," said Young. "But I could not have been happier with the service." Experts say Internet-and telephone-based medical services are transforming health care, giving consumers access to inexpensive, round-the-clock care for routine problem — often without having to leave home or work.____47____When Arizona resident Kris Taylor, 32, was admitted to a nearby hospital's intensive-care unit (ICU), he was diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening diabetic (糖尿病的) reaction. In the "eICU," Taylor was treated by a doctor in a different city, via a two-way camera in the Patient's room. From far away, the doctor evaluated Taylor's condition and regularly communicated with him and his nurses. Taylor received medications to treat his diabetes and was out of thehospital's ICU within 48 hours. ____48____ Another, more extreme, case of eMedicine took place when doctors in Boston helped a physician at a South Pole Station surgically repair a patient's damaged knee. Using a "telemedicine" connection, two specialists helped South Pole physician Dr. Timothy Pollard repair the left knee of Dar Gibson, a meteorologist (气象学家) who had injured his knee in a fall. ____49____ That has changed in recent years thanks to the development of high-speed communications networks and the push to lower health costs. Nonetheless, some doctors and patients resist eMedicine, despite so many positive reviews from consumers who have actually used it. ____50____ A. The field of eMedicine developed in the 1970s as a way to deliver health care to patients in remote areas, though its growth was slow. B. Yet "eMedicine" isn't limited to non-emergency problems. C. However, not all people think eMedicine is trustworthy. · D. Those patients often say it is more convenient and less costly than traditional health care. E. Most people don't know anything about eMedicine until they encounter it. F. As a patient, Taylor was satisfied that the doctor, located miles away, checked him several times during the day and night. 第 II 卷 （共 15分） IV. Translation (3+4+4+4) 51. 必须采取有效的措施阻止本土文化的消失。(measure) （汉译英） 52. 我们学校为学生提供了各种活动来发展不同的技能。(a wide range of) （汉译英） _______________________________________________________ 53. 随着人口增长，人类活动在很大程度上改变了地球的环境。(extent) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________ 54. 由于我们使用的语言变得更加全球化，一些本地语受到濒临灭绝的威胁(threaten)。（汉译英） _______________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025学年第二学期月考一 高一年级英语试卷 （满分100分，考试时间90分钟） I.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) My six-year-old granddaughter, Caitlynd and I stopped at Tim Horton’s shop for a blueberry cake. As we were going out of the door，a young teenage boy was coming in. This young man had no hair on the sides of his head and a set of blue spiked (竖起的) hair on top of it. One of his nostrils (鼻孔) was pierced, and a ring ran through the hole and a chain went across his face and was attached to a ring he was wearing in his ear. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under the other. Caitlynd, who was walking ahead of me, stopped at once when she saw the teenager. I thought he’d scared her and she'd frozen on the spot. I was wrong. My granddaughter backed up against the door and opened it as wide as it would go. Now I was face to face with the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His gracious response was a polite “Thank you very much.”. On our way to the car, I praised Caitlynd for her manners in holding open the door for the young man. She didn’t seem to be troubled by his appearance but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmother s talk about freedom of self-expression and allowing people their differences was suitable. I wanted to be ready. As it turned out, the person who needed the talk was me. The only thing Caitlynd noticed about the teenager, was the fact that his arms were full. “He would have a hard time in opening the door.” I saw the partially shaved head, the set of spiked hair, the piercings and the chain. She saw a person carrying something under each arm and heading toward a door. In the future, I hope to get down on her level and raise my sights. 36.

University accommodation (住所) offices Many university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords. Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization. The advantage of using your university accommodation is that you can get support if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students. Property papers: Loot and Renting Loot is an important source of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: www.loot.com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers. Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their website is at www.renting.co.uk. Accommodation agencies The majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies. The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have a large number of accommodations to choose from. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters. Noticeboards Around the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertisements from landlords can be problematic. Word of mouth Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth. It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students. However, don’t suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend, it is necessarily going to be better than that found through any other source. Family Faced with the very high rents charged in London, some students and their parents will consider buying as an alternative. In some cases this might be a good choice. 40. What is the advantage of using Loot? A. It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting. B. It gives you personal information about other co-renters. C. Their website is designed mainly for students. D. There are some good bargains. 41. A good agent can help you ______. A. know more people B. find cheap accommodation C. get the right accommodation quickly D. get free information about most accommodations 42. The information passed on by word of mouth is important because ______. A. it is better than that found through any other source B. it helps you find some of the best housing never advertised C. the final year students always offer better information D. the landlords have little valuable information 【答案】40. D 41. C 42. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。叙述了去伦敦的学生选择住宿的指导建议。去伦敦的学生可以选择学校提供的住宿，有麻烦时可以提到帮助；亦可选择Loot来租住房子；还可以通过租房住宿中介，他们会给你提供一些可租住的房子；还可选择广告牌和听熟人口头介绍的房子．另外一些学生和他们的父母也可以在伦敦买房子来住。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二部分Property papers: Loot and Renting第四句"The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains．"可知，使用Loot的好处是提供一些租价低廉的房屋的信息。故选D。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三部分Accommodation agencies第三句"A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation．"可知，一个好的中介能够帮助你快速地找到合适的住宿的地方。故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五部分Word of mouth第一句"Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth．"可知，口头传递的信息是非常重要的，因为它可以帮助你找到一些从来没有广告的最好的住房，故选B。 【点睛】本篇文章主要考查学生的细节理解能力。做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择。在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。例如小题3，根据题干中的word of mouth可知，定位在第五部分第一句"Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth．"由此可知，伦敦的一些最好的房子从来没有做过广告，但被一群学生口口相传。 因此推断口头传递的信息是非常重要的，因为它可以帮助你找到一些从来没有广告的最好的住房。与选项B吻合。故选B。 (C) What happens when we try foreign dishes for the first time? More often than not it is like finding ourselves in circumstances different from what is comfortably familiar. We hesitate and declare them unacceptable. Yet there are no universal standards for good cuisine (烹饪); there’s only badly cooked food. We may not like some foreign dishes but that has nothing to do with their being inferior or superior. It has everything to do with how removed they are from what we know. A few years back I wasn’t particularly fond of Indian dishes with their strong spices. Then an Indian family moved in next door and I immediately became friends with the lady. Being very friendly people they kept asking me over. Seeing as I had no choice, I gave in, went over and waited in horror. They served a lot of strange-looking dishes, whose aroma (香味) was inviting enough for me to sample them. And I felt sorry I did. My tongue felt like it was on fire! But I saw it through to the end so as not to endanger our neighbourly relationship. Needless to say, I was asked to come back for more. It took a few months, but I have actually come to love some hot Indian curries and overly honeyed desserts. In contrast, American steaks and burgers now strike me as downright dull, although I used to love them. Then there’s Japanese cuisine, which I associated with a smelly sushi bar next door until I went on a trip to Japan. I was served dishes of suspicious smell day in day out and, although they didn’t seem particularly delicious, upon my return home I found myself repeatedly wandering into that sushi bar around the corner. The smell I had thought terribly fishy before now seemed familiar and mouth-watering. In short, I have acquired the taste for some foreign dishes but not for all the food of any particular cuisine. In a way, the ability to acquire the taste for new foods has to do with a person’s ability to accept a culture. The ‘acquired taste’ for food goes beyond a taste bud (味蕾) experience. It has a lot to do with what a person associates the food with, like friendly neighbours or a memorable journey. Similarly, many of us find our mother’s cooking incomparable. But that isn’t necessarily because of our mother’s superior kitchen skills but because we associate her cooking with the warmth of home. 43. Which of the following statements is true of the Indian family? A. They scared the author a lot. B. They were curious about the author. C. They made pleasant smelling dishes. D. They got an apology from the author. 44. Concerning Japan and Japanese food, the author says that _________. A. she was seldom served traditional food on her trip. B. she loved Japanese food from her first day in Japan. C. she was surprised at her actions after she returned home. D. she is uninterested in the taste of the strangest Japanese dishes. 45. According to the last paragraph, acquiring new tastes _________. A. is a sign of how open-minded a person is. B. depends on how sensitive your taste buds are. C. is like making new friends or going on a journey. D. becomes easier if your mother isn’t a great cook. 46. Which statement best summarizes the overall message of the article? A. Travelling is the best way to acquire new tastes. B. The smells and sight of food are often misleading. C. The stranger the food, the more difficult it is to like it. D. Experiences are crucial in determining food preferences. 【答案】43. C 44. C 45. A 46. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者尝试外国菜肴经历，以及这些经历如何影响了他对食物的偏好。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They served a lot of strange-looking dishes, whose aroma (香味) was inviting enough for me to sample them.(他们端上了许多看起来奇怪的菜肴，其香味足以吸引我尝试它们)”可知，印度家庭做的菜肴闻起来很香。故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Then there’s Japanese cuisine, which I associated with a smelly sushi bar next door until I went on a trip to Japan.

The smell I had thought terribly fishy before now seemed familiar and mouth-watering.(然后就是日本料理了。在我去日本旅行之前，我一直把它和隔壁那家散发着臭味的寿司店联系在一起。在日本，我日复一日地吃到一些气味可疑的菜肴。尽管它们看起来并不是特别美味，但回到家后，我发现自己一次次地走进街角的那家寿司店。曾经我觉得极其腥气的味道，现在却显得熟悉且令人垂涎欲滴)”可知，作者以前觉得日本料理店有臭味，去日本旅行时吃的日本菜味道也可疑，但回家后却反复走进街角的寿司店，以前觉得很腥的味道现在觉得熟悉且令人垂涎，由此可推断出作者对自己回家后的行为感到惊讶。故选C。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In a way, the ability to acquire the taste for new foods has to do with a person’s ability to accept a culture.(在某种程度上，接受新食物的味道与一个人接受文化的能力有关)”可推知，接受新口味是一个人开放心态的标志，能够接受新食物口味说明这个人比较开放、包容。故选A。 【46题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是最后一段“The ‘acquired taste’ for food goes beyond a taste bud (味蕾) experience. It has a lot to do with what a person associates the food with, like friendly neighbours or a memorable journey.(对食物的‘后天口味’超越了单纯的味蕾体验。它在很大程度上与一个人对食物的联想有关，比如友好的邻居或是一段难忘的旅程)”可知，文章通过作者自己对印度菜、美国菜和日本菜口味变化的经历，说明了一个人对食物的喜好与他的经历有关，比如和友好的邻居相处、难忘的旅行等，这些经历会影响一个人对食物的偏好，即经历在决定食物偏好中起着关键作用。故选D。 Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. eMedicine is here Tired of feeling "like the walking dead," Amber Young sat on her bed with tears one recent Friday night in Woodbury, Minnesota. Then she logged onto an Internet site run by an online health care company and "met" with a doctor hundreds of miles away in Texas. After talking with the physician via instant messaging and then by telephone, Young was diagnosed with an upper respiratory illness (上呼吸道疾病), "I was as suspicious as anyone about getting treated over the computer," said Young. "But I could not have been happier with the service." Experts say Internet-and telephone-based medical services are transforming health care, giving consumers access to inexpensive, round-the-clock care for routine problem — often without having to leave home or work.____47____When Arizona resident Kris Taylor, 32, was admitted to a nearby hospital's intensive-care unit (ICU), he was diagnosed with a potentially life-threatening diabetic (糖尿病的) reaction. In the "eICU," Taylor was treated by a doctor in a different city, via a two-way camera in the Patient's room. From far away, the doctor evaluated Taylor's condition and regularly communicated with him and his nurses. Taylor received medications to treat his diabetes and was out of thehospital's ICU within 48 hours. ____48____ Another, more extreme, case of eMedicine took place when doctors in Boston helped a physician at a South Pole Station surgically repair a patient's damaged knee. Using a "telemedicine" connection, two specialists helped South Pole physician Dr. Timothy Pollard repair the left knee of Dar Gibson, a meteorologist (气象学家) who had injured his knee in a fall. ____49____ That has changed in recent years thanks to the development of high-speed communications networks and the push to lower health costs. Nonetheless, some doctors and patients resist eMedicine, despite so many positive reviews from consumers who have actually used it. ____50____ A. The field of eMedicine developed in the 1970s as a way to deliver health care to patients in remote areas, though its growth was slow. B. Yet "eMedicine" isn't limited to non-emergency problems. C. However, not all people think eMedicine is trustworthy. · D. Those patients often say it is more convenient and less costly than traditional health care. E. Most people don't know anything about eMedicine until they encounter it. F. As a patient, Taylor was satisfied that the doctor, located miles away, checked him several times during the day and night. 【答案】47. D 48. F 49. A 50. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电子医疗（eMedicine）的发展、应用及其优势和挑战。 【47题详解】 根据上文“Experts say Internet-and telephone-based medical services are transforming health care, giving consumers access to inexpensive, round-the-clock care for routine problem--often without having to leave home or work.(专家表示，基于互联网和电话的医疗服务正在改变医疗保健，使消费者能够获得廉价、全天候的常规问题护理，通常无需离开家或工作。)”可知，电子医疗有很多好处，D选项(这些患者经常说，这比传统的医疗保健更方便，成本也更低)进一步阐述其好处，并引出后文例子。故选D。 【48题详解】 根据上文“In the 'eICU,' Taylor was treated by a doctor in a different city, via a two-way camera in the Patient's room. From far away, the doctor evaluated Taylor's condition and regularly communicated with him and his nurses. Taylor received medications to treat his diabetes and was out of the hospital's ICU within 48 hours.(在“电子重症监护室”里，Taylor通过病房里的双向摄像头，接受了另一个城市的医生的治疗。从远处，医生评估了Taylor的病情，并定期与他和他的护士沟通。Taylor接受了治疗糖尿病的药物，并在48小时内离开了医院的重症监护室。)”可知，上文讲述了Taylor通过电子医疗获得远程的及时救治并很快康复出院的例子，F选项(作为一名患者，Taylor对远在数英里之外的医生在白天和晚上多次检查他感到满意。)”衔接上文，描述了患者的体验，F选项中“checked him”与上文中“evaluated Taylor’s condition”相呼应，承接上文内容。故选F。 【49题详解】 根据下文“That has changed in recent years thanks to the development of high-speed communications networks and the push to lower health costs.(近年来，由于高速通信网络的发展和降低医疗成本的推动，这种情况已经发生了变化。)”可知，下文提到近年来电子医疗有所发展，空处需要一个句子来补充背景信息，说明eMedicine的历史和发展。选项A（eMedicine领域在20世纪70年代发展起来，目的是为偏远地区的患者提供医疗服务，尽管其发展较为缓慢）提供了历史背景，与下文内容衔接紧密。故选A。 【50题详解】 根据上文“Nonetheless, some doctors and patients resist eMedicine, despite so many positive reviews from consumers who have actually used it.(尽管如此，尽管有许多实际使用过的消费者的正面评价，但仍有一些医生和患者抵制电子医疗。)”可知，上文提到仍有一些医生和患者抵制电子医疗，C选项(然而，并不是所有人都认为电子医疗是可信的。)直接呼应了上文的内容符合语境，并且C选项中“eMedicine”与上文相呼应，C选项中“not all people think”与上文“some doctors and patients resist”相呼应。故选C。 第 II 卷 （共 15分） IV. Translation (3+4+4+4) 51. 必须采取有效的措施阻止本土文化的消失。(measure) （汉译英） 【答案】Effective measures must be taken to prevent the disappearance of local culture. 【解析】 【详解】考查句子结构。根据所给词measure可知，本句中使用到短语take effective measures to do sth“采取有效的措施来做某事”，用“effective measures”作主语，因而本句使用被动语态，“必须”用情态动词must，“阻止本土文化的消失”用不定式表目的，表述为to prevent the disappearance of local culture。故整句可译为Effective measures must be taken to prevent the disappearance of local culture. 52. 我们学校为学生提供了各种活动来发展不同的技能。(a wide range of) （汉译英） _______________________________________________________ 【答案】Our school provides students with a wide range of activities to develop different skills. 【解析】 【详解】考查时态和短语。陈述现在的事实，为一般现在时。“提供某人某物”为provide sb with sth；“各种活动”为 a wide range of activities ；“来发展不同的技能”为to develop different skills，作目的状语。故翻译为：Our school provides students with a wide range of activities to develop different skills. 53. 随着人口增长，人类活动在很大程度上改变了地球的环境。(extent) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________ 【答案】As the population grows, human activities have changed the earth’s environment to a large extent. 【解析】 【详解】考查短语，状语从句和时态。表示“随着人口增长”可以用as引导时间状语从句，描述事实，用一般现在时，从句主语“人口”用the population，表示“增长”用动词grow，主语为单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式grows；表示“人类活动”用human activities作主句主语，表示“改变地球的环境”用change the earth’s environment，描述人类活动从过去到现在产生的影响，用现在完成时，主语是复数形式，助动词用have，表示“在很大程度上”用to a large extent在句中作状语。故翻译为As the population grows, human activities have changed the earth’s environment to a large extent. 54. 由于我们使用的语言变得更加全球化，一些本地语受到濒临灭绝的威胁(threaten)。（汉译英） _______________________________________________________ 【答案】As the language we use becomes more globalized, some local languages are threatened with extinction. 【解析】 【详解】考查状语从句和时态。表示“由于”用as引导原因状语从句，表示“我们使用的语言”翻译为the language we use；表示“变得更加全球化”为becomes more globalized；主句主语表示“一些本地语”为some local languages；表示“受到……的威胁”可用be threatened with，后跟名词extinction，作宾语。陈述事实用一般现在时。故翻译为As the language we use becomes more globalized, some local languages are threatened with extinction. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
