通江县2016届高三英语阅读能力训练（12）答案

　　【2017高考英语安徽省合肥市质量检测】

　　阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项。

　　For the first time, researchers have discovered that some plants can kill insects in order to get additional nutrients. New research shows that they catch and kill small insects with their own sticky hairs near the roots and then absorb nutrients through their roots when the insects are killed and fall to the ground.

　　Professor Mark Chase, of Kew and Queen Mary, University of London, said, "The cultivated (改良的) tomatoes and potatoes still have the hairs. Tomatoes in particular are covered with these sticky hairs. They do trap small insects on a regular basis. They do kill insects."

　　The number of these carnivorous plants is thought to have came up to 50 percent and many of them have until now been wrongly regarded as among the most harmless plants. Among them are species of petunia (矮牵牛), some special tobacco plants and cabbages, some varieties of potatoes and tomatoes, etc. Researchers at Royal Botanical Gardens Kew, which carried out the study, now believe there are hundreds more killer plants than previously realized.

　　It is thought that the technique was developed in the wild to get necessary nutrients in poor quality soil — and even various plants grown in your vegetable garden still have the ability.

　　The researchers, publishing their finding in the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, said, “We may be surrounded by many more murderous plants than we think.” “We are accustomed to thinking of plants as being immobile and harmless, and there is something deeply frightening about the thought of meat-eating plants,” they added.

　　72. Tomatoes and potatoes kill insects to ______ .

　　A. get more sticky hairs

　　B. make themselves grow better

　　C. make their roots stronger

　　D. avoid falling down to the ground

　　73. The word carnivorous in Paragraph 3 most probably means ______.

　　A. fast-growing

　　B. harmless

　　C. insect-killing

　　D. nutritious

　　74. The technique for vegetables to trap insects is most probably developed through

　　A. evolution of species

　　B. helps from other garden plants

　　C. artificial cultivation

　　D. nutrients preserved in rich soil

　　75. The text is probably taken from ______.

　　A. a student book

　　B. a science fiction

　　C. a scientific report

　　D. a bulletin board

　　[文章大意]　作者回忆起童年在乡下时和父母一起去看舞台剧《汤姆叔叔的小屋》的一些情景。

　　1．D。这里指作者在Schuyler County, Illinois 度过的12年时光，spend 和years 形成动宾关系。

　　2．C。句中的“about three miles southwest of the county”说明这里指的是当时作者全家居住的环境。

　　3．B。句中的“Living in the county”说明能进一次城可真是一大乐事，treat 在这里是名词，意为“款待；乐事”，是对当时的情况来说一次难得的享受和放松。

　　4．A。上一句的“Living in the county”说明能看马戏团的演出只是偶尔才会发生的，频率并不是很高，on occasion 意为“偶尔”，符合当时的情境。

　　5．B。因为能看到这样的演出的机会并不多，所以作者的全家应该是很享受这样的过程，所以用 enjoy 表示“享受；欣赏”。

　　6．C。下文所描述的是作者至今难忘的一次经历，在他的记忆中简直是栩栩如生，所以用vividly 指“栩栩如生地；历历在目地”，说明这次的经历印象之深刻。

　　7．D。句中的“about five years old at the time”说明当时作者还没有开始上学。

　　8．A。句中的 carriage 说明作者全家是乘坐一辆马车去的。

　　9．B。句中的“drawn by a team of spirited driving”说明是由一些精神抖擞的马儿拉着马车前往目的地。

　　10．C。爸爸迟到的原因是因为非要完成工作，如果不是这样就不会迟到了，所以用 finished。

　　11．D。既然去晚了，就没有座位，只有可容站立的地方，这里的 room 是一个不可数名词，和下句的“up on his shoulders”吻合。

　　12．A。句中的“too small to see well”说明作者无法看清，所以爸爸将其举起，坐在爸爸的双肩上让作者欣赏。

　　13．B。本句“... have sat in a large Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles...”说的是现在作者的经历，then 和现在 present 形成鲜明的对比。

　　14．C。句中的 vast crowd of 说明这里指的是观众之多，所以用people 指代观众。

　　15．B。作者为我们介绍的是带给他娱乐享受的东西，比如上文提到的看马戏团的演出，看戏剧等等都是属于生活中的娱乐。

　　16．D。本空和第二段第一句话“... remains so vividly in my mind...”吻合，说明这次记忆让作者印象深刻，和 be fixed in the mind 吻合。

　　17．A。作者当时尚年幼，对这个著作的寓意还不能完全理解，completely 是相对于其年龄而言。

　　18．D。作者在学习了历史之后对这部著作里的故事才有所理解，句中前后时间对应，形成对比，“理解”和“不理解”也形成对比，是转折关系，所以用but。

　　19．B。后来作者了解了这本书和解放奴隶有关，所以用 involve 表示“相关”，而 disclose 意为“揭露”，指揭露一些不良现象，本空后的“the freeing of the slaves”和disclose 不能形成动宾关系。

　　20．C。本句中的 the North and the South 指的是美国内战前夕北部和南部之间的矛盾，所以选择 conflict。
