4.BThe world is not only hungry,it is also thirsty for water. this may seem strange to you,since nearly 75% of the earth is covered with water. But about 97% of this water is sea water.Man can only drink and use the other 3% fresh water that comes from rivers,lakes,under-ground and other places. And we cannot even use all of that,because some of this fresh water has been made dirty.At the moment,this small amount(数量) of fresh water is still enough for us. However,our need for water is getting greater and greater. Only if we take steps to solve this problem now,we can get away from a serious world water shortage later on. The people of the world cannot have an enjoyable life without enough clean water.On one hand we should stop wasting this little water of ours,on the other hand we should find ways to reuse it,but this has not been done widely.Today,in most large cities,water is used only once and it then returns to the sea or runs into underground places.lf we can make it clean again,it can be used once more just as if it were fresh from a spring.But even if large cities reuse its water,we still would not have enough in the future. Where.could we turn to next for water? To the ocean! How can we do to make use of this great a-mount of sea water? We can take the salt from the water to make it fresh.So if we take all these steps,we'll be in no danger of drying up!( )26. Why does the writer say that the world is thirsty for water?A. The amount of fresh water is really very small.B. The people of the world waste too much water.C. The people of the world have to drink a lot of water every day.D. There are too many people in the world needing water.

    Water Resources on the Earth

    The second most important constituent(构成成分)of the biosphere(生物圈)is liquid water. This can only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures,since water freezes at 0℃and boils a 100℃.Life as we know it would only be possible on the surface of a planet which had temperature: somewhere within this narrow range.
    The earth's supply of water probably remains fairly constant in quantity.The total quantity of water is not known very accurately,but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two and three-quarter kilometers.Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans一about 97 percent. The rest is fresh.But three-quarters of this is in the form of ice at the poles and or mountains and cannot be used by living systems until melted.Of the remaining fraction,which h somewhat less than one percent of the whole.There is 10—20 times as much stored underground water as there is actually on the surface.There is also a tiny,but extremely important fraction of the water supply which is present as water vapour in the atmosphere.
    Water vapour in the atmosphere is the channel through which the whole water circulation(循环) of the biosphere has to pass.Water evaporated(蒸发)from the surface of the oceans,from lakes and rivers and from moist(潮湿的)earth is added to it. From it the water comes out again as rain or snow,falling on either the sea or the land. There is,as might be expected, a more intensive evaporation per unit area over the sea and oceans than over the land,but there is more rainfall over the land than over the oceans and the balance is restored by the run off from the land in the form of rivers.

    The word"fraction"in the second paragraph means________.
    A:a large area
    B:a very small amount
    C:an important system
    D:a major source of information

    答案:B
    解析:
    文章第一段的第二句讲到液态水“only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures",虽然B(我们星球的表面)也有点道理,但是液态水对温度的要求很高,并非地球的所有表面都有液态水存在,所以答案D正确。
    第二段第一句提到地球上水的供给“remains fairly constant in quantity",数量上是恒定的,它就没有增加也不会减少,只不过会以不同的形态出现,所以选择B(保持不变)。
    问题是“地球上绝大部分淡水以什么形式出现?”第二段中间提到淡水时,说到“three-quarters of this is in the form of ice at the poles and on mountains",即3/4的淡水以冰的形式存在于两极和高山中,后面提到剩余部分的淡水存在于地下,但占比少于1%,所以选项A正确。
    词义辫析题, fraction有“小部分”的意思,考虑到前面提到地球97%的水以海洋咸水的形式存在,剩下的3%则以冰的形式存在于两极和高山,余下的自然不多,所以选B。
    第三段的最后一句说到“there is more rainfall over the land than over the oceans”,陆地的降雨比海洋要多,但没有提到河流和山脉的降雨比较,所以C正确。大气中的水蒸气是整个生物圈的水循环必经的途径。水从海洋的表面、湖泊、河流和潮湿的泥土中蒸发出来并补充到大气中。水以雨或雪的形式再次出现,降落在海洋或陆地上。可以预料到的是,海洋上空每单位面积的水蒸气比在陆地上空更为密集,但是,陆地比海洋有更多的降雨,水在陆地上以河流的形式流出以保持水资源的平衡。

    The Sea

    What do you know about the sea?We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is shining on it.We
    also know that it can be very rough when there is a strong wind.What other things do we know about it?The
    first thing to remember is that the sea is very big.When you look at the map of the world you will find there
    is more water than land.The sea covers three quarters of the world.
    The sea is also very deep in some places.It is not deep everywhere.Some parts of the sea are very shal-
    low.But in some places the depth of the sea is very great.There is one spot,near Japan,where the sea is
    nearly 11 kilometers deep!The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometers high.If that mountain
    were put into the sea at that place,there would be 2 kilometers of water above it!What a deep place!
    If you have swum in the sea,you know that it is salty.You can taste the salt,Rivers,which fi0w into the
    sea.carry salt from the land into the sea.Some parts of the sea are saltier than other parts,There i、one sea,
    called the Dead Sea,which is very salty.It is so salty that swimmers cannot sink!Fish cannot live in the
    Dead Sea!
    In most parts of the sea,there are plenty of fishes and plants.Some live near the top of the sca.Othurs
    live deep down.There are millions of tiny living things that float in the sea.These floating things are so small
    that it is hard to see them.Many fish live by eating them.
    The sea can be very cold.Divers,who go deep down in the sea,know this.On the top the water may be
    warm.When the diver goes downwards,the sea becomnes colder and colder. Another thing happens.When the
    diver goes deeper,the water above presses down on him.It squeezes him.Then the diver has to wear clothes
    made of metal.But he cannot go very deep.Some people who wanted to go very deep used a very strong diving
    ship!They went down to the deepest part of the sea in it.They went down to a depth of eleven kilometers!

    The deeper a diver goes down in the sea,the greater water pressure he bears?
    A:Right
    B: Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    第一段说“当阳光普照大海时大海看起来很美丽”,但并没说“风平浪静”时也是如此。
    第一段的最后一句话说海洋覆盖了地球四分之三的面积,由此可推知陆地只占地球 25%的面积。
    第二段涉及大海的深度,但并没说到“平均深度”。
    第二段说死海咸度大,鱼类不能生存,但并没说所有生物都不能生存。
    第四段说在绝大多数海域,有丰富的鱼类和植物,有些生活在海洋表层,有些居住在深 海,因此说越往海洋深处鱼类和植物越少是没有道理的。

    Culture is not just a matter of language; it involves the intellect, emotions, and—to me the most important of all—our senses. It is our instinctive responses that invariably reveal our cultural affiliations. Language is one obvious indicator; few people would shout out sudden pain and pleasure in a second language. But there are clear non-linguistic indicators as well, one of the most important being our preferences for food, particularly when feel unwell. All these can perhaps be summed up as “gut feelings”. Since these are responses uncamouflaged by our own or other people’s, manipulation and wishful thinking, they are very reliable.My two worlds not only sounded different, but also had different smells, textures and each moved to different rhythm. I was intrigued by the tangibility of that difference. It was like looking at two paintings, one a traditional Chinese landscapes, the other an impressionist work. Only I wasn’t just looking at them, I was living in a both of them simultaneously.

    文化并不限于语言那么简单,它包含了思想、感情和我认为特别重要的一环——感官反映。要知道自己的文化倾向,最准确的指标可以说是我们的直觉反映。语言固然是其中一种指标,因为没有多少人会用第二种语言来表达突如其来的痛楚或伤感。但同样我们也有非常明显的非语言指标,其中一项很重要的就是对食物的偏爱,特别是身体不舒服的时候想吃什么。上面所说的种种,大概可以概括地称为“本能感觉”。正因为这些反映完全不受我们自己或别人的希望支配和伪装,所以准确性很高。
    我的两个世界不但有不同的声音,而且有不同的气味、质感,更以不同的节奏运作。如此具体的分别,令当年的我感到很奇妙,那种感觉就像同时看着两幅画,一幅是传统中国山水画,另一幅是欧洲印象派作品。但有一个很重要的分别:我不是在看画,而是同时生活在两幅画中。

    文章第一段的第二句讲到液态水“only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures",虽然B(我们星球的表面)也有点道理,但是液态水对温度的要求很高,并非地球的所有表面都有液态水存在,所以答案D正确。
    第二段第一句提到地球上水的供给“remains fairly constant in quantity",数量上是恒定的,它就没有增加也不会减少,只不过会以不同的形态出现,所以选择B(保持不变)。
    问题是“地球上绝大部分淡水以什么形式出现?”第二段中间提到淡水时,说到“three-quarters of this is in the form of ice at the poles and on mountains",即3/4的淡水以冰的形式存在于两极和高山中,后面提到剩余部分的淡水存在于地下,但占比少于1%,所以选项A正确。
    词义辫析题, fraction有“小部分”的意思,考虑到前面提到地球97%的水以海洋咸水的形式存在,剩下的3%则以冰的形式存在于两极和高山,余下的自然不多,所以选B。
    第三段的最后一句说到“there is more rainfall over the land than over the oceans”,陆地的降雨比海洋要多,但没有提到河流和山脉的降雨比较,所以C正确。大气中的水蒸气是整个生物圈的水循环必经的途径。水从海洋的表面、湖泊、河流和潮湿的泥土中蒸发出来并补充到大气中。水以雨或雪的形式再次出现,降落在海洋或陆地上。可以预料到的是,海洋上空每单位面积的水蒸气比在陆地上空更为密集,但是,陆地比海洋有更多的降雨,水在陆地上以河流的形式流出以保持水资源的平衡。

    第一篇

    Water Resources on the Earth

    The second most important constituent(构成成分)of the biosphere(生物圈)is liquid water. This can only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures,since water freezes at 0℃and boils a 100℃.Life as we know it would only be possible on the surface of a planet which had temperature: somewhere within this narrow range.
    The earth's supply of water probably remains fairly constant in quantity.The total quantity of water is not known very accurately,but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two and three-quarter kilometers.Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans一about 97 percent. The rest is fresh.But three-quarters of this is in the form of ice at the poles and or mountains and cannot be used by living systems until melted.Of the remaining fraction,which h somewhat less than one percent of the whole.There is 10—20 times as much stored underground water as there is actually on the surface.There is also a tiny,but extremely important fraction of the water supply which is present as water vapour in the atmosphere.
    Water vapour in the atmosphere is the channel through which the whole water circulation(循环) of the biosphere has to pass.Water evaporated(蒸发)from the surface of the oceans,from lakes and rivers and from moist(潮湿的)earth is added to it. From it the water comes out again as rain or snow,falling on either the sea or the land. There is,as might be expected, a more intensive evaporation per unit area over the sea and oceans than over the land,but there is more rainfall over the land than over the oceans and the balance is restored by the run off from the land in the form of rivers.

    There is more of rainfall________.
    A:over the mountains than over the rivers
    B:over the rivers than over the mountains
    C:over the land than over the oceans
    D:over the oceans than over the land

    答案:C

    The Sea

    What do you know about the sea?We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is shining on it.We
    also know that it can be very rough when there is a strong wind.What other things do we know about it?The
    first thing to remember is that the sea is very big.When you look at the map of the world you will find there
    is more water than land.The sea covers three quarters of the world.
    The sea is also very deep in some places.It is not deep everywhere.Some parts of the sea are very shal-
    low.But in some places the depth of the sea is very great.There is one spot,near Japan,where the sea is
    nearly 11 kilometers deep!The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometers high.If that mountain
    were put into the sea at that place,there would be 2 kilometers of water above it!What a deep place!
    If you have swum in the sea,you know that it is salty.You can taste the salt,Rivers,which fi0w into the
    sea.carry salt from the land into the sea.Some parts of the sea are saltier than other parts,There i、one sea,
    called the Dead Sea,which is very salty.It is so salty that swimmers cannot sink!Fish cannot live in the
    Dead Sea!
    In most parts of the sea,there are plenty of fishes and plants.Some live near the top of the sca.Othurs
    live deep down.There are millions of tiny living things that float in the sea.These floating things are so small
    that it is hard to see them.Many fish live by eating them.
    The sea can be very cold.Divers,who go deep down in the sea,know this.On the top the water may be
    warm.When the diver goes downwards,the sea becomnes colder and colder. Another thing happens.When the
    diver goes deeper,the water above presses down on him.It squeezes him.Then the diver has to wear clothes
    made of metal.But he cannot go very deep.Some people who wanted to go very deep used a very strong diving
    ship!They went down to the deepest part of the sea in it.They went down to a depth of eleven kilometers!

    The Dead Sea is so salty that nothing can live in it.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    第一段说“当阳光普照大海时大海看起来很美丽”,但并没说“风平浪静”时也是如此。
    第一段的最后一句话说海洋覆盖了地球四分之三的面积,由此可推知陆地只占地球 25%的面积。
    第二段涉及大海的深度,但并没说到“平均深度”。
    第二段说死海咸度大,鱼类不能生存,但并没说所有生物都不能生存。
    第四段说在绝大多数海域,有丰富的鱼类和植物,有些生活在海洋表层,有些居住在深 海,因此说越往海洋深处鱼类和植物越少是没有道理的。
    由第五段可知潜水员潜得越深,其承受的水压就越大。
    文章结尾说潜水员潜往深水区时,乘坐极其坚固的潜水船是为了抵抗水压而不是为了 防寒。第3部分:概括大意与完成句子

    问答题
    Practice 4  Both language and culture are learned by children without special organized programs of instruction, but motivation to learn is very high since language is the most effective means for a child to obtain what he or she wants. If the learning of a new language begins before lower adolescence, one is likely to be able to speak such a language with complete naturalness, but if learned after upper adolescence some hangover of a mother-tongue feature is very likely to persist. But not only do languages exhibit such learning patterns, but so do cultural traits, for example, shaking hands, kissing, and embracing.  Although many persons assume that languages exist in dictionaries and grammars, in fact they only exist in people’s heads. But this is equally true of cultural traits, which indicate clearly a they only exist in people’s heads. But this is equally true of cultural traits, which indicate clearly a person’s value system when crucial decisions need to be made before there is any time to think about alternatives, for example, diving into a flooding stream to rescue a drowning child.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    儿童学习语言和文化,无须专门编制的教学计划,但他们的学习积极性很高,因为他们获得想要的东西,语言即是最有效的手段。如果一个人十来岁开始学习一门新的语言,日后他就有可能轻松自如地说这门语言。但如果到十六、七岁才学,那么他说话时多半会夹杂一些母语的痕迹。不仅语言学习呈现这种模式,文化特征,如握手、接吻和拥抱,也同样如此。
    尽管许多人认为语言存在于词典和语法中,然而事实上语言仅存在于人们的头脑里。文化特征亦然。在没有时间考虑何取何舍而必须作出关键性决定时,如跳入泛滥的河水去救一个溺水的孩子,文化特征会清楚地表现出一个人的价值体系。

    As holidays go, Thanksgiving is in some ways the most philosophical. Today we try not to take for granted the things we almost always take for granted. We try, if only in that brief pause before the eating begins, to see through the well-worn patterns of our lives to what lies behind them. In other words, we try to understand how very rich we are, whether we feel very rich or not. Today is one of the few times most Americans consciously set desire aside, if only because desire is incompatible with the gratitude—not to mention the abundance-that Thanksgiving summons.

    正确答案:
    与其他节日相较,感恩节可说是最具反思意义的。今天,我们试着不像往常一样,把拥有的一切视为理所当然,而是试着透视一成不变的生活模式,探究隐藏在背后的真意,即使只是趁着用餐前的短暂片刻也无妨。换言之,我们试着了解自己有多富有,不论事实上我们是否真感到富有。今天,多数美国人难得将欲望刻意抛在一旁,即使这纯粹是因为欲望与感恩节唤起的感恩之心(更遑论丰盛的食物)扦格不入也无妨。
