1、 選修7　Unit 3　Under the sea 李仕才 一、閱讀理解 A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children. Although rather shocking, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlours(客廳) where loved pets rest. Are Americans unique in t

2、reating their little friends in this way? No, the English, too, pay more attention to their pets. This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods，which often contain more vitamins than human food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food

3、 alone, to say nothing of veterinary bills or animal furniture. It is difficult not to feel angry about this when considering what the same amount could do for victims of starvation and poverty, so it’s not unusual for me to get hot under collar when I read an old man left all his money to his dog i

4、nstead of his children. There are a variety of reasons why I find pets-raising alarming. They cause physical problems. An example of this is New York where they have great difficulty getting rid of the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities

5、 it is a major problem. Animals can cause disease, too. It is the threat of babies — a disease with no known cure. Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat，and they continually push their mothers and fathers until they get one. It is only when the

6、＂sweet little thing＂ has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on ＂Rover＂ or ＂Bonzo＂. Then they just abandon it. As a result, they are allowed to run free. English farmers lose hundreds of sheep a year, killed by someone’s pet and you must have read of chil

7、dren being hurt by some pets of their own. Lastly, I would only suggest that we have got our priorities wrong and that something should be done about it. In my view, it’s time we stopped being sentimental about pets. I can see no reason why we should get upset when animals are cut up for medical ex

8、periments. This will lead us to discovering cures for serious human diseases, then I say,＂keep cutting!＂ 1. The doggy parlours are mentioned in the 1st paragraph to show ________. A. what costly lives the pets are living B. where Americans keep their pets C. why children love their pets so much

9、 D. how much pets depend on their masters 2. In the second paragraph ＂to get hot under the collar＂ probably means ________. A. getting quite hot B. becoming excited C. feeling extremely angry D. receiving a fashionable shirt 3. According to the author, in which field can animals be most usef

10、ul? A. Food. B. Sports. C. Entertainment. D. Medicine. 4. What is the author’s attitude towards pets-raising? A. Sympathetic. B. Opposed. C. Pitiful. D. Supportive. 【文章大意】這是一篇議論文。作者通過介紹飼養(yǎng)寵物存在的種種問題(譬如飼養(yǎng)成本昂貴、寵物致人受傷、傳染疾病等)，表達了自己反對飼養(yǎng)寵物，而是應(yīng)當將寵物用于貢獻人類醫(yī)學(xué)實驗的觀點。 1

11、. A　【解析】推理判斷題。＂the doggy parlours＂所在的句子就是為了進一步闡釋第一句＂A recent survey in the United States showed that the average family spent more money on its pets than on its children.＂，即如今人們在飼養(yǎng)寵物上花銷巨大的現(xiàn)狀。故答案為A。 3. D　【解析】推理判斷題。從本文的最后兩句＂I can see no reason why we should get upset...This will lead us to discover

12、ing cures for serious human diseases...＂可知作者認為寵物在人類醫(yī)學(xué)領(lǐng)域可以起著有益的作用。因此答案為D。 4. B　【解析】觀點態(tài)度題。文章前面介紹了成本昂貴、傳染疾病等飼養(yǎng)寵物的危害，后面又提到應(yīng)把寵物用于貢獻人類醫(yī)學(xué)領(lǐng)域中去，故而可以看出作者對于飼養(yǎng)寵物的做法持反對態(tài)度。因此答案為B。 二、完形填空 For years I have had no idea what I have been doing with my life.

35、as a learning experience, rather than as a chance to make you feel bad. 【語篇解讀】本文主要介紹了嫉妒對人們的危害，并給人們提出了擺脫嫉妒的三點建議。 1.D 【解析】根據(jù)前文的＂Jealousy is like a poison.＂及空后的＂It can ruin relationships, friendships, as well as a sense of satisfaction.＂可知嫉妒就像毒藥，它會毀掉關(guān)系、友誼和滿足感，故此處應(yīng)指嫉妒有扼殺幸福的潛在力量。故選D。 3.G 【解析】根據(jù)前文的＂

36、A good way to judge this is by valuing imperfection.＂（通過重視不完美是一個很好的方法）及空后＂We are all constantly growing and improving throughout our lives, which is value in failure.＂（整個一生中，我們都在不斷地成長和改進，這也正是失敗的價值所在。）可知此處應(yīng)指我們應(yīng)該把我們的不足當成一種學(xué)習(xí)的經(jīng)歷，而不是讓它成為讓我們感覺糟糕的因素。故選G。 4.B 【解析】根據(jù)段落中的＂When you are feeling upset, remind

37、 yourself of your positive qualities.

42、targets and spare no effort to realize our dreams. 第一處：compass前加a?？疾楣谠~。compass為可數(shù)名詞，表示泛指，要用不定冠詞。 第二處：lose→lost?？疾樾稳菰~。此處的get為系動詞，故其后應(yīng)用形容詞。 第三處：which→that?？疾槊~性從句。名詞truth后為同位語從句，從句中不缺少成分，故用that。 第四處：刪除from?？疾榻樵~。skip classes意為“逃課”，故from多余。 第五處：Considered→Considering?？疾榻樵~。此處應(yīng)用介詞considering在句中作狀語。

43、 第六處：approach→approaches?？疾槊~。approach作“方法”講時，是可數(shù)名詞；由前面的several可知，應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。 第七處：work→worked?？疾閯釉~時態(tài)。根據(jù)語境可知，work的動作發(fā)生在過去，故應(yīng)該使用一般過去時。 第八處：her→my?？疾榇~。此處表示“我的數(shù)學(xué)有了很大進步”，故代詞應(yīng)用my。 第九處：However→Therefore?？疾楦痹~。根據(jù)語境可知， 此處為因果關(guān)系；后面有逗號隔開，故應(yīng)用Therefore。 第十處：clearly→clear?？疾樾稳菰~。此處應(yīng)用形容詞作make的賓語補足語，用于補充說明名詞targets。 6EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F3756EDBC3191F2351DD815FF33D4435F375
