Rivers are one of our most important natural resources (自然资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation (交通运输). The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline (生命线) of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation. Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeast Asia. The greatest of all for navigation (航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.
Besides transportation, rivers give food, water to drink, water for crops (谷物), and chances for fun for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and let a lake appear behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields (田地) but also to give some help to their homes and life.
However, large cities that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and factories increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with dirty water. However, people are learning the importance of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of this natural resource.
11. The greatest river for navigation is________.
A. the Amazon B. the Nile
C. the Mekong D. the Mississippi
12. The water in the river is polluted because of________.
A. people’s drinking water too much B. people’s swimming in the river too much
C. dirty water from cities and factories D. people’s building a dam across a river
13. The best title of the passage is________.
A. Rivers in Cities B. The Importance of Rivers
C. Transportation D. Natural Resources
【答案】11. A 12. C 13. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了河流是我们最重要的自然资源之一,从历史的开端,人们就开始使用河流来交通,除了交通,河流也会提供食物、水和娱乐。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The greatest of all for navigation, however, is the Amazon in Brazil.”可知,航海最大的河是亚马逊河。故选A。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据“As the cities grow in size and factories increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with dirty water.”可知,随着城市规模的扩大和工厂数量的增加,河流中的水被污水污染了。故选C。
【13题详解】
最佳标题题。通读全文及“Rivers are one of our most important… through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.”可知,河流是我们最重要的自然资源之一,几乎每个国家至少有一条河流经过,在人们的日常生活中有很重要的作用,所以,选项B“河流的重要性”是最佳标题。故选B。

The mother duck had eight little yellow ducklings, but one of them was different from the others. They called him Ugly Duckling.
“You are an Ugly Duckling,” the other ducklings said. “You don’t look like us. We don’t want to play with you.” “You have made fun of me since I was born,” the poor duckling said sadly. “You have hurt me for years! I don’t want to stay here any more.” So he left them and tried to find a happy place. Finally, he came to a lake. Many beautiful swans (天鹅) were there. The Ugly Duckling swam to them.
“Hello, little one. I’ve never seen you before. Where are you from?” One of the swans saw him and asked.
“Hello, I came from a place far away. I walked a long way. Now I’m tired. Can I join you?”
“Sure, you are welcome, my dear child,” the swan answered. “You’re just one of us!”

【导语】本文主要分为两部分。A部分讲述了豹子作为濒危动物面临的生存危机,由于偷猎者为了获取皮毛而捕杀豹子,导致豹子数量减少。作者呼吁人们停止购买皮草外套,以保护这些动物,并强调每个人都有责任保护野生动物。B部分则介绍了美国南部的一种传统音乐——乡村音乐,以田纳西州的纳什维尔为发源地。乡村音乐反映了过去的“美好时光”,强调人与人之间的友善和信任,并提醒人们生活中最美好的事物是免费的,如欢笑、朋友、家庭以及自然和乡村的美丽。此外,还提到了一个名叫Sarah的女孩,她梦想着有一天能去纳什维尔,感受那里的乡村音乐氛围。
【26题详解】
句意:现在世界上的豹子比以前少了。根据“The leopard (豹) is one of the animals in danger.”可知,豹子是濒危动物,所以数量应该比以前更少,用few的比较级fewer修饰可数名词leopards。故填fewer。
【27题详解】
句意:我认为人们应该停止购买皮草外套。根据“Some poachers (偷猎者) are killing leopards for their fur (皮毛).”可知,偷猎者为了皮毛杀豹子,所以人们应该停止购买皮草外套,stop doing sth.表示“停止做某事”,buy的动名词为buying。故填buying。
【28题详解】
句意:如果是这样,偷猎者就会放弃杀豹子。give up doing sth.表示“放弃做某事”,kill的动名词为killing。故填killing。
【29题详解】
句意:保护野生动物是我们的责任。根据“wild animals is our duty.”可知,此处指保护野生动物,protect表示“保护”,此处用动名词作主语,句首字母大写。故填Protecting。

句意:乡村音乐是来自美国南部各州的一种传统音乐。根据“Country is a...kind of music from the southern states of America.”可知,此处指乡村音乐是一种传统音乐,tradition的形容词为traditional,表示“传统的”,修饰名词kind。故填traditional。
【32题详解】
句意:现在的许多歌曲只是关于美国的现代生活,比如金钱和成功的重要性,但不是关于融入一个群体。根据“such as the importance of money and success, ... not about belonging to a group.”可知,前后两句为转折关系,用but连接。故填but。
【33题详解】
句意:然而,乡村音乐把我们带回到“美好的旧时光”,那时人们对彼此友好,相互信任。be kind to sb.表示“对某人友好”,固定搭配。故填to。

Rivers are one of our most important natural resources (自然资源). Many of the world’s great cities are located on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river flowing through it that plays an important part in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of history, people have used rivers for transportation (交通运输). The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline (生命线) of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Ganges is great, but it is also important for transportation. Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeast Asia. The greatest of all for navigation (航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.
Besides transportation, rivers give food, water to drink, water for crops (谷物), and chances for fun for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase the supply of water for crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and let a lake appear behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields (田地) but also to give some help to their homes and life.
However, large cities that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and factories increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with dirty water. However, people are learning the importance of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of this natural resource.
11. The greatest river for navigation is________.
A. the Amazon B. the Nile
C. the Mekong D. the Mississippi
12. The water in the river is polluted because of________.
A. people’s drinking water too much B. people’s swimming in the river too much
C. dirty water from cities and factories D. people’s building a dam across a river
13. The best title of the passage is________.
A. Rivers in Cities B. The Importance of Rivers
C. Transportation D. Natural Resources

Ugly Duckling
The mother duck had eight little yellow ducklings, but one of them was different from the others. They called him Ugly Duckling.
“You are an Ugly Duckling,” the other ducklings said. “You don’t look like us. We don’t want to play with you.” “You have made fun of me since I was born,” the poor duckling said sadly. “You have hurt me for years! I don’t want to stay here any more.” So he left them and tried to find a happy place. Finally, he came to a lake. Many beautiful swans (天鹅) were there. The Ugly Duckling swam to them.
“Hello, little one. I’ve never seen you before. Where are you from?” One of the swans saw him and asked.
“Hello, I came from a place far away. I walked a long way. Now I’m tired. Can I join you?”
“Sure, you are welcome, my dear child,” the swan answered. “You’re just one of us!”
The Ugly Duckling was very happy, but a little surprised. He looked at himself in the clear water. Instead of an ugly duckling, he saw a beautiful swan. It was himself! He became the most beautiful swan of them all.
17. Ugly Duckling left the ducklings.
18. Ugly Duckling grew into a swan.
