What makes sharks unique also makes them vulnerable (脆弱的). Fortunately, many conservation organizations are committed to rescuing and protecting these vulnerable creatures:
· PADI AWARE Foundation — The world’s largest diver training organization, PADI officially launched its global conservation charity in 1992 to promote cleaner and healthier oceans. One of its goals is to reduce the amount of sharks and rays threatened with extinction by 25%. Data collected from its new Global Shark & Ray Census will help with ongoing and future efforts to protect vulnerable species.
· Shark Advocates International — Founded by veteran shark advocate Sonja Fordham, Shark Advocates International is a project of The Ocean Foundation. The non-profit promotes science-based shark conservation policies such as fishing limits, species-specific protections, and finning (鱼翅业) bans at the local, national, and international level.
·WildAid — Known for its high-profile media campaigns, WildAid fights the global illegal wildlife trade by changing consumers’ attitudes through awareness of the multi-billion dollar industry. Its anti-shark fin campaign in China featuring NBA legend Yao Ming has been especially successful, seeing an 80% drop in shark fin consumption in the country. Through its WildAid Marine Programme, the non-profit also helps protect sharks around the world, including the Galápagos Marine Reserve, home to the densest (密集的) shark population on Earth.
· WWF — With five million supporters, projects in nearly 100 countries, and one iconic (标志性的) panda logo, the World Wildlife Fund is one of the largest and most well-known conservation organizations on the planet. WWF has partnered with the international wildlife trade monitoring non-profit TRAFFIC for a joint shark conservation programme with local projects all over the world.

In 1991, Keith White was at the centre of a 14-vehicle pile-up when a truck crossed the central reservation and hit the van in which he was a passenger. White survived, but his left arm was crushed beyond repair, and he lost his memory for two years.
His pilot license was removed and he could no longer follow his passion for diving. But he had been sailing since he was 16, and so, in 2004, he decided to buy a boat, fitting it out so he could sail it single-handedly. “I didn’t know at that point if I could sail with one hand,” he says. “But at the back of my mind I had always thought I could do anything if I put my mind to it.”
Within a year, White had taken on the challenge of being the first one-armed sailor to circumnavigate (环航) the British Isles. Then he crossed the Atlantic alone in 2008. Last year he became the first sailor with a disability to circumnavigate the globe.
Sailing single-handed for weeks requires mental, as well as physical, strength, especially when you are alone. So how does he do it? It’s a question that makes the yachtsman (帆船运动员) laugh. “When you have seven children it’s lovely to have a little time on your own! It’s awesome,” he jokes. “I do a log every hour, and my diary, and I read a few books. I have very little sleep.” “I’m a sociable person: I do like lots of people around. Answering emails and chatting over Facebook can help stop any loneliness,” he adds.
When White made his first Atlantic crossing, he was disappointed to have his peace and quiet broken by his arrival on land. But, he says, he threw himself into meeting new people. In between adventures, he likes sailing with people who haven’t tried it before or get involved in yacht races with friends. Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure, he says, is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. “It keeps me ticking over — there’s always something new to do. I just like challenges and one leads to another.”
4. Why couldn’t White continue his passion for diving?
A. He lost his left arm. B. His license was due.
C. He had a new hobby. D. His memory was poor.
5. How did White spend his time at sea?
A. By staying awake. B. By visiting old friends.
C. By keeping himself busy. D. By attending his children.
6. What mainly leads to White’s successful adjustment to life after a big adventure?
A. Socializing with new people. B. Scheduling new adventures.
C. Coaching new yachtsmen. D. Organizing yacht races.
7. Which of the following best describes Keith White?
A. Creative. B. Humorous. C. Easy-going. D. Adventurous.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Keith White身残志坚的励志故事,由于一次意外,他失去了左臂并且失去了两年的记忆,但是最后他决定去航行,获得了成功。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。通过文章第一段“White survived, but his left arm was crushed beyond repair, and he lost his memory for two years.(White活了下来,但他的左臂被压得无法修复,他失去了两年的记忆)”可推知,White不能继续跳水是因为他失去了左臂。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。通过文章第四段White 的话“I do a log every hour, and my diary, and I read a few books. I have very little sleep.(我每小时做一次日志,写日记,读几本书。)”可推知,White通过让自己忙碌的方式度过在海上的时光。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。通过文章最后一段“Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure, he says, is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. “It keeps me ticking over — there’s always something new to do. I just like challenges and one leads to another.”(他说,在经历了一场大冒险后,他之所以能成功适应生活,主要原因可能是他总能想出一个新点子。“它让我不停地工作——总是有新的事情要做。我只是喜欢挑战,一个接一个。”)”可知,计划新的冒险活动导致怀特在经历了一次大冒险后成功地适应了生活。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通过文章最后一句“I just like challenges and one leads to another.(我只是喜欢挑战,一个接一个)”结合全文可知,Keith White是一个喜欢冒险的人。故选D项。
C
If you live in a region where winter weather is a regular risk, you are likely used to pouring salt on your sidewalks. But how does it work? And how much salt do humans pour onto our planet’s surface? The second question is easier to answer: a lot.
Salt doesn’t directly melt ice, nor does it make snow simply disappear. Instead it makes water less likely to freeze in a phenomenon called freezing point depression. In the case of simple rock salt, which is a rawer, less pure version of table salt, each molecule (分子) splits into smaller elements. Normally, when water freezes into ice, its molecules line up to form a stable, orderly structure. Salt interrupts the process, however, and temperatures must drop lower to overcome that interruption and for freezing to occur.
But if salt needs to interact with liquid water, how does it do anything when temperatures are stubbornly below freezing, and water should already be in the form of ice? That’s where cars help clear their own way by creating friction and, in turn, heat. The friction allows for the ice that has already frozen to melt a little bit, making it unlikely to freeze.
Beyond rock salt’s ability to clear icy streets, it can also be destructive. Chloride ions (氯离子) can cause wear and tear on vehicles and facilities. Increasing chloride densities in North American lakes could begin to upset local ecology and degrade sources of drinking water.
Many local governments are looking for alternatives to rock salt. Other salts such as magnesium chloride and calcium chloride work in the same way as rock salt and they’re perhaps even more efficient. Some experiments are testing other ice-preventing solutions, including those that contain sugars instead of or in addition to salts. Another approach relies more heavily on sand, which can mechanically make roads safer. All of this experimentation is aimed at ensuring people can travel in any weather condition — a Herculean task when winter brings its worst.
8. What’s the purpose of the first sentence in Paragraph 2?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To give some evidence.
C. To define the phenomenon. D. To reveal the misconception.
9. How does salt work to disturb the process of freezing?
A. By lowering the temperature. B. By melting and splitting itself.
C. By lining up to form a solid structure. D. By stopping the formation of the structure.
10. What does the underlined word “densities” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Concentrations. B. Weights. C. Qualities. D. Salts.
11. What’s the last paragraph mainly talking about?
A. Other salts won’t disturb local ecology.
B. Efforts are being made to guarantee safe travels.
C Many alternatives are available to solve the problem.
D. Bitter winter make it impossible to secure road safety.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们在冬天通过在路面撒盐来缓解雪后因道路结冰而造成的交通安全问题,并就此问题所带来的环境问题进行科普。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Salt doesn’t directly melt ice, nor does it make snow simply disappear.”(盐不会直接融化冰,也不会让雪消失。)以及第二句“Instead it makes water less likely to freeze in a phenomenon called freezing point depression.”(相反,它使水更不容易冻结,这种现象被称为冰点降低。)可知,第二段第一句的目的是揭示一个错误认知,纠正盐直接使雪和冰融化的错误想法。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Normally, when water freezes into ice, its molecules line up to form a stable, orderly structure. Salt interrupts the process, however, and temperatures must drop lower to overcome that interruption and for freezing to occur.”(正常情况下,当水结冰时,它的分子会排成一行,形成一个稳定有序的结构。然而,盐会打断这一过程,而温度必须降得更低,才能克服这种干扰,从而发生冻结。)可知,盐会干扰水分子在结冰时形成稳定、有序的结构。故选D项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“Increasing chloride densities in North American lakes could begin to upset local ecology and degrade sources of drinking water.”(北美湖泊中氯化物densities的增加可能会扰乱当地生态,并使饮用水源退化。)可知,氯离子的浓度增加会是当地生态系统受到干扰,并使饮用水源退化。所以划线词的意思是“浓度”。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段,尤其是“All of this experimentation is aimed at ensuring people can travel in any weather condition…”(所有这些试验都是为了确保人们在任何天气条件下都能出行。)可知,本段主要阐述地方政府正在努力确保冰雪天气人们出行安全。故选B项。
第二节(共5 小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分 12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Lake Baikal, the biggest body of fresh water on Earth near Russia’s border with Mongolia, is home to several unusual animals, including the world’s only species of freshwater seal.
Seals exist in large quantities in Baikal, about 100,000 of them, though the lake is poor in nutrition.____12____. A study just published by Watanabe Yuuki of the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo suggests the answer is tiny organisms.
Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do, indeed, have needle-pointed teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they develop a second sort of specialized tooth behind those canines. They have sharp teeth which look like combs.____13____But Dr Watanabe guessed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other strange creatures in the lake.
Seals arrived in Baikal 2 m years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So too did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods. These have grown into more than 340 species.____14____. But Dr Watanabe wondered if the Baikal seals’ comb-like teeth might enable them to filter these tiny creatures from the water in sufficient quantities to make them useful food sources.____15____.
Records showed that the seals would dive in with their mouths open and collect amphipod groups that form at night. Dr Watanabe estimates that each seal catch an average of 57 amphipods per dive.____16____, for the seals do hunt fish as well. But they also compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus partially bypassing a link in the food chain and perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers than would otherwise be possible.
A. The needlelike canines are necessary
B. So how they do so well has been a puzzle
C. This has led to their numbers increasing sharply
D. At the time, nobody knew what to make of them
E. He therefore used waterproof cameras to observe a few seals
F. Cameras remained attached to some seals for between two and four days
G. Sea mammals the size of seals would normally see amphipods as too small to hunt
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. G 15. E 16. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了东京国家极地研究所的Watanabe Yuuki刚刚发表的一项研究表明,贝加尔湖有大量的海豹,大约有10万只,尽管湖泊缺少营养物质,但是海豹通过捕食微生物来生存。
【12题详解】
根据上文“Seals exist in large quantities in Baikal, about 100,000 of them, though the lake is poor in nutrition.(贝加尔湖有大量的海豹,大约有10万只,尽管湖泊缺少营养物质)”以及后文“A study just published by Watanabe Yuuki of the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo suggests the answer is tiny organisms.(东京国家极地研究所的Watanabe Yuuki刚刚发表的一项研究表明,答案是微小的生物)”可知,本句是关于海豹在湖泊里生活很好的疑问。故B选项“所以他们怎么做得这么好一直是个谜”符合语境,故选B。
【13题详解】
根据上文“Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do, indeed, have needle-pointed teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they develop a second sort of specialized tooth behind those canines. They have sharp teeth which look like combs.(大多数海豹吃鱼。贝加尔湖海豹确实有尖尖的牙齿。但在1982年,研究人员注意到,在这些犬齿之后,它们长出了第二种特殊的牙齿。它们有锋利的牙齿,看起来像梳子)”以及后文“But Dr Watanabe guessed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other strange creatures in the lake.(但渡边博士猜测,它们可能是为了捕食湖中其他奇怪生物而做出的一种适应)”可知,本段是关于像梳子的牙齿的疑问,后文对此进行了猜测。故D选项“当时,没有人知道是怎么回事”符合语境,故选D。
【14题详解】
根据上文“Seals arrived in Baikal 2 m years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So too did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods. These have grown into more than 340 species.(200万年前,海豹从北冰洋来到贝加尔湖。还有一些更小的海洋生物,也就是片脚类动物。它们已经成长为340多个物种)”可知,本句是针对上文提到的片脚类动物的说明,G选项中amphipods对应上文中amphipods。故G选项“海豹这样大小的海洋哺乳动物通常认为片脚类动物太小,不能捕猎”符合语境,故选G。
【15题详解】
根据上文“But Dr Watanabe wondered if the Baikal seals’ comb-like teeth might enable them to filter these tiny creatures from the water in sufficient quantities to make them useful food sources.(但是渡边博士想知道贝加尔湖海豹梳状的牙齿是否能使它们从水中过滤出足够数量的这些微小生物,使它们成为有用的食物来源)”可知,上文提到渡边博士想知道海豹梳状的牙齿是否能使它们从水中过滤出足够数量的这些微小生物,本句为本段最后一句,应承接上文说明他的做法。故E选项“他因此使用防水相机观察一些海豹”符合语境,故选E。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Records showed that the seals would dive in with their mouths open and collect amphipod groups that form at night. Dr Watanabe estimates that each seal catch an average of 57 amphipods per dive.(记录显示,海豹会张着嘴潜入水中,收集夜间形成的片脚类动物群。渡边博士估计,每只海豹每次潜水平均捕获57只片脚类动物)”以及后文“for the seals do hunt fish as well(因为海豹也捕食鱼类)”可知,本句应是说明海豹为了捕食鱼类,身体上的一些构造,故A选项“针状犬齿是必要的”符合语境,故选A。

What makes sharks unique also makes them vulnerable (脆弱的). Fortunately, many conservation organizations are committed to rescuing and protecting these vulnerable creatures:
· PADI AWARE Foundation — The world’s largest diver training organization, PADI officially launched its global conservation charity in 1992 to promote cleaner and healthier oceans. One of its goals is to reduce the amount of sharks and rays threatened with extinction by 25%. Data collected from its new Global Shark & Ray Census will help with ongoing and future efforts to protect vulnerable species.
· Shark Advocates International — Founded by veteran shark advocate Sonja Fordham, Shark Advocates International is a project of The Ocean Foundation. The non-profit promotes science-based shark conservation policies such as fishing limits, species-specific protections, and finning (鱼翅业) bans at the local, national, and international level.
·WildAid — Known for its high-profile media campaigns, WildAid fights the global illegal wildlife trade by changing consumers’ attitudes through awareness of the multi-billion dollar industry. Its anti-shark fin campaign in China featuring NBA legend Yao Ming has been especially successful, seeing an 80% drop in shark fin consumption in the country. Through its WildAid Marine Programme, the non-profit also helps protect sharks around the world, including the Galápagos Marine Reserve, home to the densest (密集的) shark population on Earth.
· WWF — With five million supporters, projects in nearly 100 countries, and one iconic (标志性的) panda logo, the World Wildlife Fund is one of the largest and most well-known conservation organizations on the planet. WWF has partnered with the international wildlife trade monitoring non-profit TRAFFIC for a joint shark conservation programme with local projects all over the world.

In 1991, Keith White was at the centre of a 14-vehicle pile-up when a truck crossed the central reservation and hit the van in which he was a passenger. White survived, but his left arm was crushed beyond repair, and he lost his memory for two years.
His pilot license was removed and he could no longer follow his passion for diving. But he had been sailing since he was 16, and so, in 2004, he decided to buy a boat, fitting it out so he could sail it single-handedly. “I didn’t know at that point if I could sail with one hand,” he says. “But at the back of my mind I had always thought I could do anything if I put my mind to it.”
Within a year, White had taken on the challenge of being the first one-armed sailor to circumnavigate (环航) the British Isles. Then he crossed the Atlantic alone in 2008. Last year he became the first sailor with a disability to circumnavigate the globe.
Sailing single-handed for weeks requires mental, as well as physical, strength, especially when you are alone. So how does he do it? It’s a question that makes the yachtsman (帆船运动员) laugh. “When you have seven children it’s lovely to have a little time on your own! It’s awesome,” he jokes. “I do a log every hour, and my diary, and I read a few books. I have very little sleep.” “I’m a sociable person: I do like lots of people around. Answering emails and chatting over Facebook can help stop any loneliness,” he adds.
When White made his first Atlantic crossing, he was disappointed to have his peace and quiet broken by his arrival on land. But, he says, he threw himself into meeting new people. In between adventures, he likes sailing with people who haven’t tried it before or get involved in yacht races with friends. Perhaps the main reason for his success in adjusting to life after a big adventure, he says, is that he always has an idea for a new one in his back pocket. “It keeps me ticking over — there’s always something new to do. I just like challenges and one leads to another.”
4. Why couldn’t White continue his passion for diving?
A. He lost his left arm. B. His license was due.
C. He had a new hobby. D. His memory was poor.
5. How did White spend his time at sea?
A. By staying awake. B. By visiting old friends.
C. By keeping himself busy. D. By attending his children.
6. What mainly leads to White’s successful adjustment to life after a big adventure?
A. Socializing with new people. B. Scheduling new adventures.
C. Coaching new yachtsmen. D. Organizing yacht races.
7. Which of the following best describes Keith White?
A. Creative. B. Humorous. C. Easy-going. D. Adventurous.
C
If you live in a region where winter weather is a regular risk, you are likely used to pouring salt on your sidewalks. But how does it work? And how much salt do humans pour onto our planet’s surface? The second question is easier to answer: a lot.
Salt doesn’t directly melt ice, nor does it make snow simply disappear. Instead it makes water less likely to freeze in a phenomenon called freezing point depression. In the case of simple rock salt, which is a rawer, less pure version of table salt, each molecule (分子) splits into smaller elements. Normally, when water freezes into ice, its molecules line up to form a stable, orderly structure. Salt interrupts the process, however, and temperatures must drop lower to overcome that interruption and for freezing to occur.
But if salt needs to interact with liquid water, how does it do anything when temperatures are stubbornly below freezing, and water should already be in the form of ice? That’s where cars help clear their own way by creating friction and, in turn, heat. The friction allows for the ice that has already frozen to melt a little bit, making it unlikely to freeze.
Beyond rock salt’s ability to clear icy streets, it can also be destructive. Chloride ions (氯离子) can cause wear and tear on vehicles and facilities. Increasing chloride densities in North American lakes could begin to upset local ecology and degrade sources of drinking water.
Many local governments are looking for alternatives to rock salt. Other salts such as magnesium chloride and calcium chloride work in the same way as rock salt, and they’re perhaps even more efficient. Some experiments are testing other ice-preventing solutions, including those that contain sugars instead of or in addition to salts. Another approach relies more heavily on sand, which can mechanically make roads safer. All of this experimentation is aimed at ensuring people can travel in any weather condition — a Herculean task when winter brings its worst.
8. What’s the purpose of the first sentence in Paragraph 2?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To give some evidence.
C. To define the phenomenon. D. To reveal the misconception.
9. How does salt work to disturb the process of freezing?
A. By lowering the temperature. B. By melting and splitting itself.
C. By lining up to form a solid structure. D. By stopping the formation of the structure.
10. What does the underlined word “densities” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Concentrations. B. Weights. C. Qualities. D. Salts.
11 What’s the last paragraph mainly talking about?
A. Other salts won’t disturb local ecology.
B. Efforts are being made to guarantee safe travels.
C. Many alternatives are available to solve the problem.
D. Bitter winter make it impossible to secure road safety.
第二节(共5 小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分 12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Lake Baikal, the biggest body of fresh water on Earth near Russia’s border with Mongolia, is home to several unusual animals, including the world’s only species of freshwater seal.
Seals exist in large quantities in Baikal, about 100,000 of them, though the lake is poor in nutrition.____12____. A study just published by Watanabe Yuuki of the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo suggests the answer is tiny organisms.
Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do, indeed, have needle-pointed teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they develop a second sort of specialized tooth behind those canines. They have sharp teeth which look like combs.____13____But Dr Watanabe guessed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on other strange creatures in the lake.
Seals arrived in Baikal 2 m years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So too did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods. These have grown into more than 340 species.____14____. But Dr Watanabe wondered if the Baikal seals’ comb-like teeth might enable them to filter these tiny creatures from the water in sufficient quantities to make them useful food sources.____15____.
Records showed that the seals would dive in with their mouths open and collect amphipod groups that form at night. Dr Watanabe estimates that each seal catch an average of 57 amphipods per dive.____16____, for the seals do hunt fish as well. But they also compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus partially bypassing a link in the food chain and perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers than would otherwise be possible.
A. The needlelike canines are necessary
B. So how they do so well has been a puzzle
C. This has led to their numbers increasing sharply
D. At the time, nobody knew what to make of them
E. He therefore used waterproof cameras to observe a few seals
F. Cameras remained attached to some seals for between two and four days
G Sea mammals the size of seals would normally see amphipods as too small to hunt
