Ⅰ.语法填空
(2016·宁夏银川一中一模)Scientists have discovered that__1__ (stay) in the cold could help us lose weight.Researchers at the University of California found that exposure to the cold increases levels of a protein that helps form brown fat — the type of fat that produces heat and keeps us warm. Brown fat burns energy, __2__ helps us lose weight.White fat stores extra energy, which results__3__ weight gain.The researchers said that because air conditioning and heating give us constant, __4__ (comfort) temperatures, our body’s need for brown fat has decreased.They found that: “Outdoor workers in northern Finland who __5__ (expose) to cold temperature have__6__ significant amount of brown fat when__7__ (compare) to sameaged indoor workers.”
The research was conducted on two different control groups of mice.__8__ group was injected with the protein that helps create brown fat.This group later gained 30% less weight after both groups were fed highfat diets.The researchers say this could be good news in the fight against obesity.People who are obese have__9__ (low) levels of brown fat than thinner people.Head researcher Hei Sook Sul said: “This protein could become an important target for research into the treatment and prevention of obesity and obesityrelated diseases.” She added, “If you can somehow increase levels of this protein, you could__10__ (possible) lose more weight even if eating the same amount of food.”
1．staying 考查非谓语动词。句意：科学家们发现待在寒冷的环境中会有助于我们减肥。“__1__ (stay) in the cold ”作主语，且表示抽象概念，故用动名词作主语。
2．which 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：褐色脂肪燃烧热量，这可以帮助我们减肥。先行词为前面一句话，关系词在定语从句中作主语且表示“事”，故用which引导。
3．in 考查动词短语。result in“引起，导致”。
4．comfortable 考查形容词。设空处后为名词，故可判断设空处应用形容词作temperatures的定语。
5．are exposed 考查被动语态及主谓一致。设空处为定语从句的谓语动词，它需与先行词outdoor workers(名词复数)保持一致；此外outdoor workers与expose(使暴露)为被动关系，故用被动语态；由主句的谓语动词have判断用一般现在时。综上所述答案为are exposed。
6．a 考查冠词。a significant amount of 为固定搭配，意为“大量的”。
7．compared 考查非谓语动词。compared to 为固定搭配，意为“与……相比”。
8．One 考查限定词。根据上句的“two different control groups of mice”可判断此处用one。
9．lower 考查形容词比较级。根据语境中的“than”可判断此处应为形容词的比较级。
10．possibly 考查副词。设空处在句中作状语，故用副词形式。
Ⅱ.短文改错
(2016·辽师大附中高三模拟)Though great progress has been made in science these years, but there are still many people living in poor conditions. They make their lives by collecting and selling used thing. Their children cannot go to school because they have not enough money to send their children to there. Why you think so many people still suffer from poverty now? The answer lies on the population explosion. A president of a developing country once said, “It is us who are to blame for the poverty because we used to ’produce’ child without limit.” Although this few words sound simple enough, they have clear pointed out one of the causes of the population explosion.
答案：第一句：去掉but
第二句：lives→living; thing→things
第三句：去掉there前面的to
第四句：Why后加do
第五句：on→in
第六句：us→we; child→children
第七句：this→these; clear→clearly
