New Zealand fishermen caught what may prove to be a world­record­breaking colossal squid (鱿鱼)．
In the cold，dark waters of the Antarctic hides a creature with eight arms，two super long tentacles (触须) and eyes as big as dinner plates.Sound like something out of a science fiction movie？Think again.
On February 21，New Zealand fishermen landed a colossal squid at the length of a school bus.They had been fishing with long lines for Chilean sea bass in the waters off the coast of New Zealand when they caught the rare squid.With two hours of hard work，the crew skillfully pulled the creature into a net and dragged it aboard their ship.
Scientists evaluate that the animal weighs about a half ton and is about 40 feet long.That would make this colossal squid the biggest on record.
First identified in 1925 after two tentacles were found in a whale’s stomach，the colossal squid has long been a mystery.The animals are not easy to observe because they can go down to ocean depths of 6,500 feet.What scientists do know from studying the bodies of a half dozen colossal squids is that they are fierce hunters.
ts believe it to be the first adult male ever caught undamaged.Scientists hope to learn more about the colossal squid’s diet，behavior and reproductive (繁殖) patterns.
“Scientists will be very interested in this amazing creature，” said New Zealand Fisheries Minister Jim Anderson.“It adds immeasurably to our understanding of the marine environment.”
1．Why is it usually difficult for experts to observe the squid?
A．Because it moves too fast.
B．Because it is too large.
C．Because it is dangerous.
D．Because it can go down to deep ocean.
2．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．The squid is from a science fiction story.
B．The fishermen had some difficulty catching the large squid.
C．Scientists know much about the colossal squid.
D．The fishermen often meet colossal squids.
3．What have people decided to do with the huge squid?
A．To make it into food. B．To set a world record.
C．To do research on it. D．To display it for visitors.
4．What would be the best title for the passage?
A．The biggest squid ever found
B．Scientific research on squid
C．The lifestyle of the colossal squid
D．How the fishermen caught the squid
(2010届河南部分重点中学第二次联考)
Half an hour of exercise a day can add an extra five years on your life，a ground breaking research has revealed.Health experts said that walking or cycling gently has massive long­term benefits.According to the World Health Organization，research carried out in Britain and Denmark shows that gentle workouts (锻炼) and even housework every day can boost life spans by as much as five years.
The news will provide encouragement for those couch_potatoes to start taking exercise.Britain is in the grip of an obesity epidemic (肥胖症)，with just 35% of men and 24% of women taking regular exercise.
“Encouraging people to be physically active every day has so many health benefits，” said Dr.Marc Danzon，WHO regional director for Europe.“These include reducing the risk of developing certain diseases and of becoming obese，as well as contributing to physical co­ordination，balance，strength and mental well­being.It is a very cost­effective public health tool.”
The organization is so concerned that the public is not getting the message on exercise that it will launch a “Move for Health” campaign to boost public awareness.
“The WHO encourages adults to take at least 30 minutes of moderate physical exercise a day，defined as any body movement that results in energy expenditure (消耗)，” said Dr Danzon.“This includes walking，cycling，playing，housework，climbing stairs as well as sports.” He added that children should take at least 60 minutes of exercise every day.
5．The underlined phrase “couch potatoes” probably means________.
A．lazy bones who spend a lot of time sitting
B．people who like eating potatoes
C．persons who usually rest on a couch
D．players who take exercise with potatoes
6．Taking physical exercise every day benefits one’s health in the following aspects except________.
A．strengthening body co­ordination
B．developing certain diseases and becoming obese
C．keeping body balance
D．keeping fit mentally
7．Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A．Children should take more physical exercise than adults every day.
B．The WHO has tried to improve people’s knowledge about exercise by launching a campaign.
C．People with an obesity epidemic in Britain seldom take regular exercise.
D．Physical exercise brings the best possible profit to public health at the lowest cost.
8．The passage mainly tells us________.
A．how to take exercise
B．what the WHO is
C．how to lose weight
D．how to add years to your life
答案：Ⅰ.单项填空
1．C　句意为：我们坚信战争永远不能解决任何事情，它只能导致暴力。run into撞上，偶然碰见；come from来自；lead to导致；begin with以……开始。
2．A　throw away扔掉；坐失(良机等)；put down写下，记下；平息；give in屈服，投降；break off折断。句意为：他失去了最后的成功机会，真遗憾！故答案应为throw away。
3．A　adapt后面可加反身代词，“使自己适应于……”。
4．C　make a difference有意义，有影响。
5．C　此题考查语态，由at present可知，在城市里目前正采取措施减少犯罪。
6．B　该题考查有关die的词组。die away意为“(声音、光等)消失；(风)停下来”；die off指“(草木)一一枯死”；die out (喻)“灭亡，灭绝”。
7．C　act as担任，充当，由句意来看明显选act与as搭配。
8．D　common sense常识。句意为：任何有常识的人都知道吸烟有害健康。
9．A　考查形容词词义与用法。present作“出席的，在场的”解时常位于所修饰词语之后；thankful感激的，常作表语或前置定语；interested感兴趣的，常作表语，后面跟介词in；important重要的，常作前置定语。由at yesterday’s meeting可知最佳搭配词为present。句意为：所有出席昨天会议的人都说会议相当成功。
10．A　lead可接同源宾语，构成lead...life。在as...as结构中，第一个as是副词，在修饰可数名词单数时，应用“as＋形容词＋a/an＋名词”，故选A项。句意为：尽管他残废了，但他尽可能过着和正常人一样的生活。
11．A　从题意可知，空缺处应填入“结果”之意，答案锁定在A、B两项，而as a result of 后要跟名词、表示“由于……原因”，因此只能选A项。
12．B　考查定语从句，当先行词是the way意为“方式、方法”时，引导定语从句的关系词有三种形式；that/in which/不用关系词。
13．A　本题考查两个短语in danger与out of danger的用法。in danger of losing one’s life有失去生命的危险；help sb.out of danger帮助某人脱离险境，两个短语中都不能使用定冠词the
14．B　句意为：万一明天下雨，我们就把运动会推迟到下周五。本题正确答案的选择有两步：首先清楚虚拟条件从句中根据时间确定的三种动词形式，即：had＋过去分词(过去)、动词的过去式(现在)、were to do/did/should do(将来)，第二步根据主句的时态可判断出从句动作的时间也为将来，由此可选出正确答案。
15．C　由句子的后半部分可知，本句使用了虚拟语气，而只有but for可用于虚拟语气，表示“如果没有……”。
Ⅱ.阅读理解
【语篇解读】　新西兰渔民捕捞到了世界上迄今为止最大的鱿鱼。
1．D　考查细节理解。第五段说，鱿鱼能潜入海底6 500英尺深的地方，因此科学家很难观测到它们。
2．B　考查推理判断。第三段说，新西兰渔民经过两个小时的奋斗才将这条鱿鱼弄到渔网里并拖到船上。由此判断选B。
3．C　考查细节理解。从第六段可知，人们把最近捕到的鱿鱼冻起来用于科研。
4．A　考查主旨大意。全文主要介绍了新西兰渔民捕捞到的世界上迄今为止最大的鱿鱼。
【语篇解读】　这是一篇生活类短文。据世界卫生组织介绍，最新研究表明，每天进行适度的锻炼，包括行走、骑车、玩耍、做家务、爬楼梯以及各项体育运动，能让人的寿命延长5年。
5．A　词义猜测题。此句的意义是“这一调查结果将会鼓励那些不爱运动的懒骨头开始锻炼身体”。由此句的意义可知：couch potato意为“整天懒散的人或花过多时间躺着或坐着的人”。
6．B　细节题。短文第三段提到，世界卫生组织欧洲区域主任马克·坦桑博士认为：鼓励人们每天锻炼身体，这对健康会有很多好处，包括降低患某些疾病和变肥胖的风险，加强身体的协调性、平衡能力和力量，对心理健康也有好处。由此可排除B。
7．C　事实细节题。短文最后一段提到，世界卫生组织鼓励成年人每天进行至少30分钟的适度锻炼，同时强调儿童每天至少要锻炼一个小时，因此A项正确；第四段提到，世界卫生组织将启动一项名为“健康大行动”的计划，以增强大众的健康意识，因此B项正确；第三段最后一句提到，这种改善大众身体健康状况的方式十分划算，因此D项也正确；第二段中提到，英国的肥胖症患者较多，但在这一人群中，只有35%的男性和24%的女性定期进行体育锻炼，选项C中的seldom与此叙述不符，故选C。
8．D　主旨题。第一段是全文的中心段，由第一段内容可知，每天进行适度的锻炼，能让人延年益寿。
