　　(A)Each cell in the human body contains about 25, 000 to 35, 000 genes, which carry information that determines your traits. Traits are characteristics you inherit from your parents; this means your parents pass some of their characteristics on to you through genes. For example, if both of your parents have green eyes, you might inherit the trait of green eyes from them. Or if your mom has freckles(雀斑), you might inherit that trait and wind up with a freckled face. And genes aren’t just in humans — all animals and plants have genes, too.

　　Genes hang out all lined up on thread-like things called chromosomes(染色体). Chromosomes come in pairs, and there are hundreds, sometimes thousands of genes in one chromosome. The chromosomes and genes are made of DNA, which is short for deoxyribo nucleic acid.

　　Chromosomes are found inside cells, the very small units that make up all living things. A cell is so tiny that you can only see it through the lens of a strong microscope, and there are billions of cells in your body. Most cells have one nucleus. The nucleus, which is sort of egg-shaped, is like the brain of the cell. It tells every part of the cell what to do. How does the nucleus know so much?

　　It contains our chromosomes and genes. Tiny as it is, the nucleus has more information in it than the biggest dictionary you’ve ever seen.

　　1. What does the underlined word “inherit” probably mean in the first paragraph?

　　A. carry

　　B. send

　　C. obtain

　　D. pass

　　2. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A. The parents pass some characteristics on to their children.

　　B. All living things receive traits from the old generations.

　　C. One’s green eyes might be passed on from the parents.

　　D. A mother’s freckled face might affect her young’s face.

　　3. From the passage we can know that________.

　　A. genes can decide all your characteristics from parents

　　B. genes exist inside cells that make up all living things

　　C. genes tell every part of the cell what to do

　　D. chromosomes come in pairs containing genes

　　4. From the passage we can conclude that________.

　　A. not all cells have one nucleus inside

　　B. not all living things are made up of cells

　　C. genes aren’t in humans but in animals and plants

　　D. DNA is made of chromosomes and genes

　　(B)

　　［2012南昌模拟］

　　Young women are more adventurous than young men when travelling abroad in gap years. One in three female backpackers visits more than three countries during a year out and travels alone, according to new research. By contrast, the majority of their male counterparts visit only one country and tend to travel in groups, says a survey by the Gap Year company, which provides information and services for students considering taking a year out.

　　More women than men say that their prime reason for taking time off is to see the world and experience different cultures. Men were more likely to rank “having fun” higher on their list of preferences. Women were more likely to value the challenge of a foreign trip, and many cited reasons such as learning a language and meeting new people.

　　The more adventurous gap years taken by women seem to work to their benefit; more than three quarters of those surveyed reported increased confidence, self-reliance and independence, whereas only half of the men had that experience.

　　The research also showed that women were more likely to do voluntary work while travelling, with more than one in ten helping with teaching or development projects. One of the reasons given for this is a wish to see the country in an authentic light.

　　A greater proportion(比例)of women than men faced objections or criticism from their families over their gap-year plans. Among the men surveyed, lack of money was the main barrier to travel. Carolyn Martin, a doctor from London, was a typically confident female traveller. Starting in Cape Town, she travelled around southern Africa and Australia with a string of unusual and sometimes dangerous jobs.

　　“I had one job chasing elephants off the runway in Africa by banging a stick against a pan，” she recalled. “It was OK but one day I did get chased by one. ”

　　She said that she had travelled alone because“you meet more people”．

　　5. By referring to “gap year”, the writer means .

　　A．a gap you come across after leaving high school

　　B．a time when you are caught in a dilemma between work and study

　　C．a period before you find a job upon your graduation from college

　　A．Men students will travel less during the gap year because of their part-time jobs.

　　D．Men students prefer to travel inside their own country rather than go abroad.

　　8．Which of the following would be the best title of the article?

　　5.【解析】选A。考查“have sth. done”结构。因为her written English和improve之间为被动关系，故用过去分词作宾补。

　　6．【解析】选A。句意：消防员很难靠近燃烧的房子，所有营救被困人员的尝试都是徒劳地。in vain徒劳地；in return作为回报；in place适当的；in danger在危险中。根据句意可知选A。

　　7.【解析】选D。句意：这位老妇人来到警局，声称在购物时钱包被抢了。rob sb. of sth. 抢某人某物，the old lady与rob之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，故用不定式的被动式，且被抢动作发生在claim(宣称)之前，故用不定式的完成被动式，D项正确。

　　8.【解析】选D。考查动词辨析。句意：没有人能容忍他的粗鲁行为，所以他没有朋友。tolerate 容忍，忍受；accustom 习惯于；understand 理解；cover覆盖。

　　Ⅳ．1.【解析】选C。词义猜测题。根据后文信息this means your parents pass some of their characteristics on to you through genes这就意味着通过基因你的父母把性格特征传给你，结合例子推断此处语境：你的特征是从你父母那儿获得的。

　　2.【解析】选B。细节理解题。可用排除法。A项在第一段第二句话中。C、D项在第一段的例子中。全文未提到B项。

　　3.【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Chromosomes are found inside cells, the very small units that make up all living things. ”结合第二段第一句“Genes hang out all lined up on thread-like things called chromosomes. ”可知：genes与chromosomes在一起，chromosomes在cells的内部，cells组成了所有的生命。

　　4.【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段信息“Most cells have one nucleus. ”可知：大多数细胞有一个细胞核，由此推断：不是所有的细胞都有一个细胞核。注意：“not all. . . ”是半否定句式。

　　5.【解析】选D。词义猜测题。文章第二段提到students，所以相比之下，D项最适合。在英国等国家，年轻人会有“空档年”，即上完高中、上大学之前的这段时间。而C项是最大的干扰项，由常识可知，大学毕业后，学生一般都得忙着找工作，然后上班，没有足够的时间去旅行，所以D项比C项更贴切。

　　6．【解析】选C。细节理解题。在文章前两段中，作者提到“三分之一的女性在空档年会独自旅行”，而男性更倾向于团体旅行。A项应该是gap years，而不是the summer holidays，B项表示泛指，本文是特指在空档年出游，故B项中的in a year是不正确的。D项women改为men则正确。

　　7．【解析】选B。细节理解题。由第六段第一句A greater proportion of women than men faced objections or criticism from their families over their gap-year plans. 可知，女性更喜欢在空档年出游，但与男性相比，她们面临更多的反对意见。

　　8．【解析】选A。主旨大意题。文章第三段提到女性旅行的原因是了解世界、体验不同的文化、学习语言、认识新人。在第四段中作者提到“more than three quarters of those surveyed reported increased confidence, self-reliance and independence(超过四分之三的女性通过旅行会增强自信、自力和独立)”，而只有一半的男性有同样的体验。所以A项正确。D项是最大的干扰项，其实D项与原文第一段首句相比缺少了关键的状语限定部分(when travelling abroad in gap years)。
