2to undertake

3off

4that

5disturbing

6objections

10forbade

【解析】

文章介绍了克隆的产生与发展。

1考查冠词。此处表示做另一只动物或植物的复制品,所以用不定冠词,exact 为元音开头,所以用an。

2考查不定式。此处表示是一项很难进行的任务。此处要用to undertake task的定语。

3考查固定短语,此处表示有了回报所以用pay off。

4考查从句连词。此处从句是解释fact的内容,为同位语从句,从句句子完整,不缺成分,不缺意义,所以用从属连词that 引导。

5考查现在分词。此处修饰news,表示烦人的消息,形容事物用现在分词。

6考查名词。Of 为介词,后缺宾语,因此要用名词作宾语,另外反对不止一个,所以用复数。

7考查副词。此处作状语,表示明显地,它变得有争议,所以用副词apparently。

8考查非谓语动词。此句谓语为are,表示克隆研究需要的卵细胞和胚胎,因此需要与卵细胞和胚胎之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词。

9考查非谓语动词。此处做of 的宾语,evil leader hope 之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词。

10考查谓语。此处and 连接前后两个谓语,表示改革法律体系,禁止克隆人的研究,因此与reformed 并列,所以用forbade。

【题目】 Why, you may wonder, should spiders be our friends? Because they destroy so many insects, and insects include some of the greatest enemies of the human race. Insects would make it impossible for us to live in the world; they would devour all our crops and kill our flocks and herds, if it were not for the protection we get from insect-eating animals. We owe a lot to the birds and beasts who eat insects but all of them put together kill only a fraction of the number destroyed by spiders. Moreover, unlike some of the other insect eaters, spiders never do the least harm to us or our belongings.

Spiders are not insects, as many people think, nor even nearly related to them. One can tell the difference almost at a glance, for a spider always has eight legs and an insect never more than six.

How many spiders are engaged in this work on our behalf? One authority on spiders made a census of the spiders in a grass field in the south of England, and he estimated that there were more than 2,250,000 in one acre, that is something like 6,000,000 spiders of different kinds on a football pitch. Spiders are busy for at least half the year in killing insects. It is impossible to make more than the wildest guess at how many they kill, but they are hungry creatures, not content with only three meals a day. It has been estimated that the weight of all the insects destroyed by spiders in Britain in one year would be greater than the total weight of all the human beings in the country.

1Spiders are our friends because they_______.

A.are beneficial insects

B.protect insect-eating animals

C.destroy insects without hurting us in any way

D.include some of the greatest enemies of the human race

2The underlined word “devour” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.

A.protectB.eat upC.be beneficial toD.help

3Birds and beasts_________.

A.eat as many insects as spiders

B.eat more insects than spiders

C.can’t compare with spiders as destroyers of insects

D.destroy a large fraction of insects than spiders

4If spiders were insects, they would______.

A.have eight legsB.have six legs or less

C.be able to flyD.not destroy their own kind

【题目】 Some pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic, according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare. The study, published in the journal Biology Letters, is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal, influencing judgment.

Asher, a researcher at the University of Newcastle's Institute of Neuroscience, and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment. One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft, deep straw. After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks, the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.

“To do this, we trained each pig. In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets — pigs love them — and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans, which pigs find bittertasting,” a researcher said.

Over a number of training trials, pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets. On the contrary, they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.

The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations, to see how the pigs would react. Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside, showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets. Others, however, behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans, displaying pessimism.

The findings suggest that a onesizefitsall answer to animal welfare issues does not exist. Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people, there is still cause for concern. Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.

1What was the study trying to figure out?

A.How to make pigs happier.

B.The similarities between humans and pigs.

C.How living environment affected pigs' mood.

D.How pigs' mood and personality affected their judgment.

2What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Simple.B.More comfortable.

C.Unpractical.D.Less free.

3What do the findings of the new research imply?

A.People should treat pigs equally.

B.People's health relies on meat quality.

C.People should meet pigs' various needs.

D.People's attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

Gramma Goodie visits her grandkids every Sunday afternoon. Every visit starts the same. First she rings the doorbell. Then Chris jumps down the stairs. Jamie runs to open the door. And every time, Gramma Goodie has gifts. But the kids never know what she'll bring.

Sometimes it's something you need, like socks or underwear. Sometimes it's movie tickets or a giant teddy bear. It could be a kite or a stuffed (填充的) baby kangaroo. It could be a lollipop (棒棒糖) that turns your tongue blue.

Well, one Sunday, Gramma rang the doorbell. Chris hurried down the stairs. And Jamie threw open the door.

'Hello, my darlings', Gramma Goodie said with a smile. 'Look what I have for you. ' She pulled out a pack of cards, and they played 'Go fish' all afternoon. At the end of the day, Gramma gave everyone kisses. Then she said her good-byes.

As she drove away, Chris and Jamie heard their parents talking. They said that Gramma Goodie's birthday was next Sunday. They were going to plan a special dinner and bake a delicious cake for her birthday surprise.

'Gramma Goodie has a birthday?' they thought. Both were a little puzzled. Grown- ups have birthdays? Who in the world knew?

'Well, we have to get her a gift, ' Jamie decided.

'But what?' asked Chris. 'Gramma Goodie has almost EVERYTHING! '

Jamie thought about scarves and flowers. But Gramma had plenty of scarves and a huge rose garden. Chris thought about books, pillows and photo albums. A diary? She had one. An umbrella? She had that too. A radio? There is one in her kitchen. Oh, what would Chris and Jamie do? They spent all week thinking.
