Ⅱ.阅读理解
A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe. Airlines have stopped or changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in airports.
Grimsvom is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe. What makes Grimsvom different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick. The hot volcano heats up the ice above it, which then forms a layer(层)of water between the glacier and the volcano.This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable. As the water flows out from under the glacier, the pressure lifts. The lava(岩浆) from the volcano then comes up to the surface. This is exactly what happened today.
Now, airlines have to make changes to their flights so as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic ash. According to KLM,one of Europe's biggest airlines, airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over it. Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane's engines, causing damage to the plane.
The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland. The volcano left ash and sharp glasslike rocks all over the countryside. Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ashcovered grass or the sharp object.
16.What makes Grimsvom different from other volcanoes?
A.It is below ice.
B.It lies under the sea.
C.It is the largest volcano.
D.Its lava affects the airlines.
17.What keeps Grimsvom still?
A.The slow flow of water.
B.The low water temperature.
C.The thick glacier.
D.The water pressure.
18.Which of the following is the result of the volcanic eruption?
A.People stop traveling in Europe.
B.Airlines suffer from the loss of planes.
C.It becomes dangerous for animals to eat outside.
D.Farmers have lost many of their animals.
19.This text is most probably taken from________.
A.a research paper
B.a newspaper report
C.a class presentation
D.a geography textbook

答案
课时作业(三十)
Ⅰ.1.A 考查状语从句。根据主从句的动词时态可知主句谓语动词的动作在从句谓语动词之前已经完成,引导词的意思是:就在这时,选A。
2.D 考查非谓语动词。句意:为了及时使项目完工,全体员工周末都在工作。故应用不定式一般式作目的状语,选D项。
3. C 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可以看出,这是一个省略的原因状语从句(=As many farmers are encouraged…),指“许多农民受到鼓舞”,主语和动词为被动关系,故应用过去分词作状语,选C符合。
4. B 考查非谓语动词。句意:有人提醒经理不要错过15:20的航班,他匆忙出发去了机场。主句主语the manager与remind为逻辑上的被动关系,故排除A、C、D三项,因为这三项表主动,只有B项表被动。
5.A 考查非谓语动词。非谓语动词作伴随状语,表示的动作与谓语动词的动作同时进行,且为主动关系,故选A项。句意:在2009年4月,胡主席在青岛视察了海军舰队,庆贺中国人民解放军海军成立60周年。
6. B 考查非谓语动词。句意:一个三月的下午,走在田野上,他能够感觉到春天的温暖。Walking in the fields在这里是现在分词短语作状语,相当于时间状语从句While he was walking in the fields on a March afternoon。To walk是不定式放在句首一般作目的状语;Walked表示被动,而此处句子主语he与动词walk之间是主动关系;Having walked是现在分词的完成式作状语,表示的动作发生在主句的谓语动词(feel the warmth of spring)之前,显然不合题意。
7. C 考查名词词义辨析。句意:这种飞机的飞行安全记录令人印象深刻,证明了该机种设计师本领非凡。impressive 意为“印象深刻的”。imaginative意为“虚幻的”;sensitive意为“敏感的”;active意为“积极的”,均不合题意。
8. A 考查独立主格结构。这是一个典型的独立主格结构,原因是空格后不是一个句子,也就是没有谓语。所以its owner和a garden 吻合。注意,seat 用作动词时,它总是及物的,其后要么接宾语,要么它就用于被动语态,所以若在 seated 前加上助动词 is,则可以选择B。许多同学会认为句中逗号后是一个非限制性定语从句,whose 在定语从句中用作定语修饰其后的名词 owner,但实质上是尽管句中有两个动词,但它们都是非谓语动词。
9. C 考查形容词词义辨析。句意:她在他们三人中思维最敏捷,首先意识到他们处境的潜在危险。这里的danger说明是“潜在”的危险。
10. D 考查动词词义辨析。suit作及物动词有“适合(某人)之意”的意思,与题干的意思吻合。fit指“尺寸大小”的合适;meet意为“迎接”;satisfy somebody表示“让某人满意”。
11. A 考查非谓语动词。compared with/to为固定用法,意为“与……相比”。句意:我有一些困难,但和你的相比就不算什么了。
12. A 考查介词用法以及非谓语动词。句意:在伦敦市区你会看到鳞次栉比的千奇百怪的现代建筑和古典建筑交相辉映,形成了现代建筑风格和古代建筑风格的鲜明对比。第一个空的alongside是介词,表示“并排地”,这可以从本空后的each other看出,而aside意为“在旁边;到(向)旁边”,意思不通顺;第二个空考查的是现在分词作状语。
13.A 句意:“为什么王先生被任命为北方地区的总经理?”“因为他在销售方面的突出表现。”appoint sb. to be 任命某人做……;make 不和as 连用;send sb. to 派某人去……;choose 的正确搭配应为choose sb. as。
14. B 考查固定搭配。句意:他无处可住,因为他的家已经被烧毁了。be burnt to the ground意为“烧毁”。
15.D 考查副词辨析。句意:不幸的是,火势开始后没有被发现。既然是火势开始不久没有被发现,当然应该“感到不幸”。
Ⅱ.本文讲述的是Grimsvom火山爆发的原因以及火山爆发带来的坏处。
16.A 细节理解题。由第二段的第二句What makes Grimsvom different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick.可知它有别于其他火山是因为它位于巨大冰川之下,故选A。
17.D 细节理解题。由第二段中的This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable.可知水的压力让它稳定,故选D。
18.C A、B、D项在文中没有提到,由最后一段The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland.…Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ashcovered grass or the sharp object.可知选C。
19.B 推理判断题。通读全文可知这是一篇资讯报道,故选B。
Ⅲ.Hiking has become popular in China during recent years, and more and more people become hikers, who are
Donkey Friends(驴友)in Chinese.A discussion about hiking has
held in our class.Some students think that hiking during vacations can make people ③to feel healthier, fresher and more harmonious with nature.They find themselves
attracted by the beauty of nature.They can also be
walking in deep mountains. But nowadays some hikers even begin to explore the places people have never
been to, and accidents have ⑥been happened now and then because
poor knowledge of hiking.Some hikers even lost their
.The other students in our class think it not safe to organize
dangerous activities.They make suggestions
laws should be passed and hikers should be trained before they attend the activities.
① who 指的是上文所说的hikers,所以用被动语态,“被称作”。
②讨论是被举行的,故用被动。
③ make sb. do sth.结构,make为使役动词,后面作宾补的不定式不能带to。
④修饰动词attract作状语,要用副词形式,deeply“深深地”。
⑤描述人的感受,所以用ed形式的形容词。
⑥happen为不及物动词,无被动语态,所以用主动表被动。
⑦“poor knowledge of hiking”为名词短语,所以用because of。
⑧ 修饰语their和主语some hikers一致,life表示“生命”,所以应该用复数形式。
⑨“dangerous activities”为名词短语,所以应该用such修饰。
⑩解释suggestions的具体内容,引导的是同位语从句,所以用that。
Ⅳ.One possible version:
Life_is_not_easy._As_students,_we_should_learn_how_to_protect_ourselves_in_the_school.
When an earthquake happens, first we should calm down, which is the most important. Shouting and crying is of no use. Follow the teacher's guidance and keep our actions in order. Second, hide beneath our desks with our schoolbags on our heads if we are in class. That can keep us a little safer. Be sure not to jump off the building. Third, if we are on the playground, do not move. Sit on our feet and use hands to cover our heads so that they can be kept from being hit on. At last, help each other. When we are faced with natural disasters, individual power is tiny. Only by uniting can we overcome the difficulties.
These are my suggestions. Keep them in mind and maybe some day we can survive in case of an earthquake.
