Ⅳ.阅读理解
For as long as they can remember Jynne Martin and April Surgent had both dreamed of going to Antarctica. This winter, they each made it to the icy continent as guests of the National Science Foundation (NSF)．But they didn't go as scientists. Martin is a poet and Surgent is an artist. They went to Antarctica as participants in the NSF's Artists and Writers program. The NSF is the government agency that funds scientific research in Antarctica. But it also makes it possible for artists, including filmmakers and musicians, to experience Antarctica and contribute their own points of view to our understanding of the continent.
The mixing of science and art in Antarctica isn't new. Some of the earliest explorers brought along painters and photographers. Edward Wilson was a British painter, doctor, and bird expert who journeyed with Robert Falcon Scott on two separate Antarctic expeditions more than 100 years ago. Herbert Ponting was a photographer who also accompanied Scott on one of those expeditions. In hundreds of photos, Ponting captured the beauty of the continent and recorded the daily lives and heroic struggles of the explorers.
Today's scientists write articles for scientific journals. Unlike the early explorers' journals, scientific papers can now be very difficult for non­scientists to understand. Writers in Antarctica work to explain the research to the public. Peter Rejcek is editor, writer, and photographer for the Antarctic Sun, an online magazine devoted to news about the U．S. Antarctic Program. Rejeck began his career in the Antarctic in 2022 by spending a year at the South Pole. He has returned every year since interviewing scientists about research at Palmer，McMurdo，and South Pole stations.
There are also scientists in Antarctica who work hard to explain their research to the public. Scientist Diane McKnight wrote The Lost Seal，a children's book that explains the research she and others are doing in an unusual ice­free area in Antarctica called the Dry Valleys.
Antarctica is full of stories and wonders that are scientific, historic and personal. People such as Martin, Surgent, Rejcek, and Diane McKnight are devoted to bringing those stories to as many people as they can. “Some people are going to be scientists，some people are going to be journalists，some people are going to be artists，but we can all work together.〞 says Surgent, “to celebrate this extraordinary place.〞
1．Why didn't some earliest explorers bring writers along?
A．Writers were not funded at that time.
B．Writing can't capture the beauty of the continent.
C．Writers were not interested in popularizing science.
D．Early explorers 'journals can be easily understood by the public.
2．By mentioning Diane McKnight, the author may try to suggest that__________．
A．scientists should explain their research to children
B．writers are not necessary since scientists can tell stories as well
C．telling stories to children is more important than knowing the truth
D．no matter what role we play, we can work together to appreciate Antarctica
3．What would be the best title for this article?
A．Antarctica: A Land for All
B．The NSF: A Program for All
C．Antarctica:A Land of Beauty and Stories
D．The NSF: A Program for Artists and Scientists
答案与解析
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在南非洲的社会研究工程方面的内容。现在的许多探险日记比以前的更加令人费解，而许多科学家们认为不管我们扮演的是什么角色，我们都应该一起努力，为国家效劳。
1．D　细节理解题。根据文中第三段Today's scientists write articles for scientific journals.Unlike the early explorers' journals，scientific papers can now be very difficult for non­scientists to understand 可知现在的探险日记不像以前的，让人非常费解。由此可判断此处所指的是早期的探险日记很容易理解。所以选D。
2．D　细节理解题。根据文中最后一段“but we can all work together，〞 says Surgent，“to celebrate this extraordinary place.〞可知他们建议不管有些人想做什么，但是我们都可以一起工作，为回报社会。由此可判断此处表达的意思就是选项D中的内容。所以选D。
3．A　推理判断题。本文主要介绍了在南非洲的社会研究工程方面的内容，结合上下文语境应选A。
Ⅴ.七选五
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries.__1__ In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.
One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. __2__ Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and the blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.
__3__ They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men.
__4__ Scientists are still not exactly sure how genes influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman's body cells have a tendency to age more slowly than a man's. Others think that a man's body cells have a tendency to age more quickly. __5__
A．However, women, on average, live longer.
B．The biological factor plays an important part.
C．Women are also helped by their female genes.
D．The female hormones also protect the body in another way.
E．Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.
F．Therefore, women are healthier than men and can live a better life.
G．Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.
答案与解析
在工业社会的今天人们活的越来越长了，而女性通常比男性活的长，原因是由男女不同的生理构造决定的，其中荷尔蒙起到了很重要的作用。
1．A　考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：在工业化的今天男人和女人都生活的更长。空后的意思是：女性通常要比男性多活六到七年。所以这里选A(然而一般来说，女性活的更久。)与上下文一致。
2．G　考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：一个有助于女性活的更久的生物因素是男女荷尔蒙的不同；空后的意思是：在12到50岁，女性产生的荷尔蒙包含了生育能力。所以这里选G(荷尔蒙是由身体产生的来控制不同的身体功能的化学成分。)与上下文一致。
3．D　考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是：他们帮助身体防御一些种类的传染。所以这里选D(女性荷尔蒙在另一种方式上也保护了身体。)与上下文一致。
4．C　考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是：科学家仍然不能确定基因是怎样影响年龄的。所以这里选C(女性的基因对女性也起到了作用。)与上下文一致。
5．E　考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是：男人的身体细胞倾向于变的更快。所以这里选E(最近的研究似乎支持这些可能性。)与上下文一致。
Ⅵ.短文改错
Now I'd like to share with my plan for the summer holiday.
Recently I've became interested in some attractive camps advertising in a website . I have made up my mind to take part in one of it: Volunteering in Another Country. I have always dreamed of being a volunteer, because I would like to offer necessary help to those who needs it.
Beside, volunteering in another country will certainly give me good chance to experience a completely different culture. Most important, I can exchange ideas freely with the local people or get them to know more about China.
I'm eager to join in the activity and I'm sure I will benefit greatly by such an opportunity. How about your plan for this summer?
