Unit 4 Making the news 李仕才 一、阅读理解。‎ ‎(2019·四川成都高中毕业班检测)‎ Fans of the movie Finding Nemo may remember the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin at the bottom of a trench.‎ But in reality this “monster”, a black seadevil, is only about ‎9 cm long, which would make it about a third of the size of Dory and potentially smaller than Marlin or Nemo.‎ While this inaccuracy may seem harmless, it could cause problems for future conservation efforts, as people are more likely to support conservation of adorable rather than scarylooking animals.‎ The black seadevil is just one of the mysterious “monsters”. From 2019 to 2019, scientists described about 1,200 new species in the Census of Marine Life. While this figure may seem astonishing, a further 5,000 individual dead creatures are in specimen(标本) jars, waiting to be described.‎ Specimens must be methodically collected, identified, and then the identity of new deepwater species must be confirmed.‎ If we call unusual deepsea animals monsters, then we may harm their conservation as people are unlikely to be connected with them or care about saving them.‎ On the other hand, their rarity clearly makes them popular on social media sites. For other species, this has already resulted in increases in illegal trading for unusual pets. Deepsea species may potentially become illegally obtained specimens or food. Humans may end up eating these animals of the deep sea to extinction before their species are even known to science.‎ Every habitat on earth is interconnected, and whatever we as humans do has an influence on marine ecosystems. In reality, about 80% of our oxygen is produced by microorganisms(微生物) in the oceans. This makes our oceans both the lungs and lifeblood of our planet and we must all try harder to save them.‎ ‎【解题导语】 本文主要从电影里对深海物种的不准确认识,谈到了保护深海物种的重要性。‎ ‎1.What can we know about the black seadevil in reality?‎ A.People benefit greatly from the oxygen produced by it.‎ B.Its body size is a big threat to fish like Dory and Nemo.‎ C.Its scary appearance will cause problems for conservation.‎ D.People didn’t know much about it when filming Finding Nemo.‎ D 解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“the terrifying fish that scares Dory and Marlin”并结合第二段的整体内容可知,拍摄这部电影时,人们对这种物种了解很少,故选D。‎ ‎2.What does the author think of the progress of describing new species?‎ A.Acceptable.       B.Surprising.‎ C.Unsatisfying. D.Hopeless.‎ C 解析:观点态度题。根据第四段的最后一句可推知,作者认为科学家对海洋新物种的研究不能令人满意,故选C。‎ ‎3.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 7 probably refer to?‎ A.Their popularity on social media sites.‎ B.Their rarity among sea creatures.‎ C.Their conservation being harmed.‎ D.Their importance being ignored.‎ A 解析:代词指代题。根据第七段的第一句可推知,此处的this指代上文稀有物种在社交媒体网站上受青睐的状况,故选A。‎ ‎4.What can we infer about those unusual sea animals?‎ A.They are the lungs and lifeblood of our planet.‎ B.Confirming their identity is very urgent for protection.‎ C.Most of them are becoming illegally obtained specimens.‎ D.Adorable ones are more likely to be posted on social media sites.‎ B 解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第三段可推知,科学地认知稀有物种对于对这些物种的保护很紧迫,故选B。‎ 二、单句语法填空 ‎1.It is necessary that we keep the young generation (inform) of the current affairs.‎ 答案:informed ‎2.A man helping an old lady who fell on the floor to get up on a bus ended up (accuse) of causing her injury.‎ 答案:being accused ‎3.Don’t defend him any more.

(acquire) a good knowledge of English, he gave up his job and went to study in an English school.‎ 答案:To acquire ‎5.It is every citizen’s demand that the murderer who killed three children (punish).‎ 答案:(should) be punished ‎6.The teacher will put forward a variety of questions, (depend) on your different answers.‎ 答案:depending ‎7.The diligent man is (achieve) his goal, because he spares no effort to do the best for every detail.‎ 答案:to achieve ‎8.(2019·银川质检)My parents didn’t approve my leaving school this year and I had to accept it.‎ 答案:of ‎9.You should get down to your study from now on. Please concentrate what is of great importance for your future development.‎ 答案:on ‎10.What are you doing out of bed, Tom? You are supposed (be) asleep.‎ 答案:to be 三、完形填空。‎ ‎(2019·河北石家庄高三复习教学质量检测)When my sister Diane began playing the violin, she was seven. How did she sound? Terrible. But she didn’t 1 .
