[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学术出版的相关情况。
1.to print [考查不定式。句意:科学出版一直是印钞的许可证。分析可知,此处应用不定式作名词licence的后置定语,a licence to print money“印钞的许可证”。故答案为to print。]
2.which [考查定语从句的关系词。句意:科学家需要期刊来发表他们的研究,所以他们会无偿提供文章。此处考查定语从句,先行词为journals,此处为方式状语,应用in which来引导,故填which。]
3.the [考查冠词。句意:其他科学家也免费从事有技术和专门的同行评审工作,因为这是获得地位和生产科学知识的核心因素。此处表示特指含义,需要用定冠词the,表示有技术和专门的同行评审工作,故填the。]
4.because [考查连接词。句意见上题解析。根据语境,可知“it is a central element in the 5. (acquire) of status and the production of scientific knowledge”是前一句“Other scientists perform 3. skilled and specialized work of peer review also for free”的原因,此处要用because连接,表示原因,故填because。]
5.acquisition [考查名词。句意见第3题解析。根据the以及of可知填空处的词性为名词,而动词acquire的名词为acquisition,表示获得地位和生产科学知识的核心因素,且acquisition是不可数名词,故答案为acquisition。]
6.secured [考查过去分词。句意:由于论文的内容是免费的,出版商只需为自己的期刊找到一个市场。在with伴随状语中,“the content of papers”与动词“secure”之间是被动关系,即论文的内容被免费获得,因此这里要用动词secure的过去分词secured,故填secured。]
7.Until [考查时间状语的引导词。句意:直到本世纪,大学图书馆对价格都不是很敏感。根据语境,可知此处需要用until来引导时间状语从句,表示直到……,符合题意,且位于句首的单词首字母要大写,故填Until。]
8.be forced [考查动词的语态。句意:由于学术生涯依赖于出版,对科学出版物的需求是无限的,除非学术图书馆被迫支付价格。本句的主语scholarly libraries与动词force之间是被动关系,要用be done结构,can后面要接动词原形be,故填be forced。]
9.routinely [考查副词。句意:科学出版业的利润率通常接近40%,而与此同时,出版业的其他行业却处于生死存亡的境地。空处修饰动词report,应该用副词,故填routinely。]
10.existential [考查形容词。句意见上题解析。根据an以及crisis可知,填空处的词性为形容词,用来修饰名词crisis,动词exist的形容词为existential,表示“存在的”,故填existential。]

Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
There was a thick forest on the sides of a mountain.Many kinds of animals lived in the forest.A deer was eating grass and leaves with her two young ones.The young ones wandered happily here and there.The deer followed her fawns (幼鹿) into a cave.The deer was frightened because it was a tiger's cave.There were bones of dead animals all over the cave.Fortunately,the tiger was not inside the cave at the time.
The deer was trying to lead her young ones out of the cave when she heard a loud roar.She saw the tiger at a distance coming towards the cave.It was dangerous to go out of the cave now.She thought of a plan.The deer raised her voice and shouted,“My deer young children,do not weep.I shall capture (捕捉) a tiger for you to eat.You can have a good dinner.”
The tiger heard these words and became frightened.He thought,“Whose is that strange voice from the cave? A dangerous animal is staying inside to capture me.I shall run away to escape death.” The tiger began to run away from there as fast as possible.
A jackal (胡狼) saw the running tiger.“Why are you running in great fear?” the jackal asked.The tiger said,“My friend,a powerful and fierce animal is in my cave.The young ones are crying for a tiger to eat.The mother is promising to capture a tiger for them.So,I am running away.”
The cunning jackal was now sure the tiger was a coward (懦夫).It said,“Don't be afraid.No animal is fiercer or stronger than a tiger.Let us go together to find out.”
But the tiger said,“I do not want to take a chance.You may run away.I will be left alone to die.So,I will not come with you.”
The jackal said,“Trust me.Let us knot (打结) our tails together.Then I will not be able to leave you.” The tiger agreed unwillingly to this proposal.So the jackal tied their tails in a knot.Now they walked towards the cave together.
Paragraph 1:
The deer saw the jackal and the tiger coming together.
Paragraph 2:
The tiger was shocked to hear this and he was sure now the jackal cheated him.

Paragraph 1:
The deer saw the jackal and the tiger coming together.She again raised her voice.She shouted towards her children standing inside the cave.“My dear children,I requested my friend,the clever jackal to capture a tiger for us.Now look,the jackal has captured a tiger for us.He has tied the tiger's tail to his tail.This is to prevent the tiger from escaping.You will soon have the tiger for dinner.”
Paragraph 2:
The tiger was shocked to hear this and he was sure now the jackal cheated him.So the tiger decided to escape from the terrible animal standing inside his cave.He started running.He forgot about the jackal.He dragged the jackal over rocks and thorns.In the mad escape the jackal was caught between two rocks.The tiger pulled with all his might.His tail got cut.The jackal was killed in this incident.The tailless tiger ran away to another part of the forest.The deer and her young ones left the tiger's cave.They joined their herd safely.Presence of mind and intelligence can save one from dangerous situations.
