What is an insect? Insects of all kinds have existed on earth for millions of years. Sometimes we think of all insects as pests. Human life, however, would have a difficult time continuing without insects, 1 they pollinate plants and are a food source for many animals. Besides, insects, especially the social 2are fascinating.

One very interesting and useful social insect is the honey bee. Bees 3 (consider) social insects because they live and work together. The bee lives in a beehive with other worker bees, and with the queen, who can lay thousands of eggs a day. The worker bees make wax used 4 (create) new cells inside the hive. Humans use this valuable beeswax 5 candlescosmetics, expensive furniture polish, and other products. They also produce honey, a valuable food for humans (as well as for bees).

Another fascinating social insect is 6 ant. Many types of ants live in colonies underground. There thousands of them build and maintain their “city”. They also cooperate to provide food, sometimes in a manner that looks like human. For example, some ants actually raise their own food. One type of ant “farmer” keeps and cares for tiny insects that suck sweet sap (汁液)from plants. Ant farmers milk them from the sap, just like actual farmers milk cows. The sap is then given as food to young ants and to the queen, 7 main duty is to lay eggs. Another type of ant that produces its own food does so by gardening. These farmer ants take pieces of leaves into the colony and chew them up. The soft 8 (chew) up leaves then sprout (涌出)a fungus that the worker ants use to feed the queen and young ants. There are many other ways that ants cooperate to maintain and protect their colonies.

There are also many other kinds of social insects. 9 makes them all so fascinating is their organization. 10 each insect has certain tasks to perform, the entire hive or colony appears to function as one living organism.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。各种各样的昆虫在地球上已经存在了数百万年。有时我们认为所有的昆虫都是害虫。然而,如果没有昆虫,人类的生活将难以继续,因为昆虫为植物授粉,是许多动物的食物来源。此外,昆虫,尤其是社会性的昆虫,是令人着迷的。文章介绍了蜜蜂和蚂蚁两种社会性昆虫的组织结构。

1考查连接词。句意:然而,如果没有昆虫,人类的生活将难以继续,因为昆虫为植物授粉,是许多动物的食物来源。本句为原因状语从句,表示“因为”故填because

2考查代词。句意:此外,昆虫,尤其是社会性的昆虫,是令人着迷的。此处指代上文insects,表示泛指,且为复数,故填ones

3考查动词时态语态。句意:蜜蜂被认为是群居昆虫,因为它们生活和工作在一起。本句主语与谓语动词构成被动,且时态为一般现在时,主语为复数,故填are considered

4考查非谓语动词。句意:工蜂用蜂蜡在蜂巢内制造新细胞。本句中create做非谓语动词,表目的,故填不定式to create

5考查介词。句意:人类在蜡烛、化妆品、昂贵的家具上光剂和其他产品中使用这种珍贵的蜂蜡。根据句意可知表示“在……之中”应填介词in

6考查冠词。句意:另一种有趣的社会性昆虫是蚂蚁。ant为可数名词,此处表示特指“蚂蚁”这种社会性昆虫,故填定冠词the

7考查定语从句连接词。句意:然后汁液被作为食物喂给年轻的蚂蚁和蚁后,蚁后的主要职责是产卵。本句为定语从句修饰先行词the queen,且先行词在从句中做定语,故填关系代词whose

8考查非谓语动词。句意:这些柔软的、被咀嚼过的叶子会长出一种真菌,工蚁用它来喂养蚁后和幼蚁。本句中chew做非谓语动词与逻辑主语leaves构成被动,故用过去分词chewed

9考查名词性从句连接词。句意:让他们如此迷人的是他们的组织。本句为主语从句,从句中缺少主语,指事物,故填What

10考查状语从句连接词。句意:尽管每只昆虫都有特定的任务要完成,但整个蜂房或蜂群似乎是一个活的有机体。本句为让步状语从句,表示“虽然;尽管”且位于句首,故填Although

名词性从句关键在于三点:一、找准从句在主句中充当的成分即分出是名词性从句的主语句、宾语从句、表语从句还是同位语从句。二、连接词从句中充当的成分(主、宾、定或状语或不做任何成分)三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意,近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。如第九小题,考查名词性从句连接词。句意:让他们如此迷人的是他们的组织。本句为主语从句,从句中缺少主语,指事物,故填What

【题目】To: David Rodgers

From: Mavis Chen

Subject: getting back our old subscribers

Since the marketing meeting yesterday, it occurred to me that we might be ignoring one potentially important source of subscribers. We have focused so intently on how to expand the appeal of our product to groups that have never used it before that I’m afraid we may have overlooked the obvious we may have forgotten that there is a whole group of interested people who have used it and stopped for one reason or another.

This target group has particularly good potential because it consists of readers who have demonstrated interest in the subject matter we present. Their interest is not something we have to work to stimulate. I suggest that making a maximum effort to win these readers back will be more effective on a percentage basis than pursuing some of the other groups we’ve identified.

Since these readers quit using our product once, they were most likely dissatisfied with some aspect of our presentation or our pricing. Our new product will be vastly improved over the old version and is priced more competitively. We need to do everything possible to get those points across, perhaps by sending them a free issue and by asking for their opinions on how we might improve it even further. This could be in the form of a very short survey, either included with the free issue or accessible online.

If you think this idea has merit and might be willing to authorize it, let’s discuss it further when you’ve got a few spare minutes. I have a rough draft of the survey questions I could show you.

1What kind of product is the writer referring to in the memo?

A.A web-based information service.B.A magazine.

C.A consulting service.D.Computer software.

2Why is the writer confident that they can win back their old customers?

A.Their product has no competition.

B.Their product has changed dramatically.

C.They have reduced the price of their product

D.The need for their product has increased.

3What does the writer want to do?

A.Start her plan immediately.B.Wait for input from the survey.

C.Get Mr. Rodgers’ approval.D.Present her idea in the next meeting.

【题目】Self-respect is very important for a great life. If we lack self-respect we will be unsure of ourselves and try to be someone we are not. The following are some ways we can improve our self-respect.

1 There is great pressure from parents, work and society to become a certain person and to achieve certain things. But, real self-respect only comes from being true to our inner calling. It is important that you have faith (信念) in your own values and remember what is important to you.

Respect others. If you have no respect for others, how can you have self-respect? 2

Learn to deal with criticism (批评). When we are criticized, we feel bad about ourselves. So to keep a sense of self-respect, we need to learn how to handle criticism. 3 If there is some truth in it, we can use it to develop our character.

4 Our appearance is important. It can give us confidence or it can make us feel ashamed. Dressing smartly gives us self-confidence. Dress for your own benefit. Don’t dress in the hope of pleasing others and receiving praises.

Never dislike yourself. We make mistakes or we may do the wrong thing. 5 We should never hate ourselves.

A.Try to be selfless.

B.Be true to yourself.

C.If it is false, we should ignore it.

D.But we should never put ourselves down.

E.Take care of your looks, without being a slave to fashion.

F.It is wrong to try to feel better by putting others down.

G.Self-respect comes when we value our attitude to life and other people.
