Many children may be fond of animals, but few ever think of making the study of animals their career (职业). Even fewer will be

the title of United Nations Messenger (使者)of Peace.
3
one woman has achieved all that. She has lived with chimpanzees(黑猩猩) in the African forest for more than 20 years and made great
4
. This woman is Jane Goodall. She was born in London, England, in 1934. Goodall's lifelong
5
in animals began at an early age. By the age of 10 or 11, Goodall
6
going to Africa to live with animals. This was quite a strange dream in those days, as young
7
didn't think of having such "wild actions. But she was
8
by her mother. She told her that if she really wanted somtehing, she should work hard, take advantage of
9
and never give up looking for a way.
When a close friend invited Goodall to Kenya in 1957, she readily
10
within a few months of her arrival she met the famous anthropologist (人类学家)Dr. Louis Leakey, who soon decided that Goodall was the
11
person he was looking for to begin a
12
of wild chimpanzees on the shore of Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania.
In July 1960, Goodall arrived at Combe National Park in Tanzania. At the beginning, studying the chimpanzees was not
13
for her. The animals fled from her
14
, so it took months for her to get close to them. With a strong
15
,she searched the forest every day, trying not to get too close to the chimpanzees too
16
. Gradually the chimpanzees became used to her presence.
She discovered many things of chimpanzees during her first years at Combe National Park. In October 1960, she observed a chimpanzee making and using
17
to fish for termites (蚂蚁). This discovery threw
18
on the popular idea at the time that Man was the world's only toolmaker.
The longer Goodall's research continues, the more it becomes obvious that chimpanzees are very
19
to humans.
Since the mid-1980s Goodall has been lecturing around the world to raise people's sense about environmental
20 "Let's live in the new age witlh hope, respect for all living things, understanding and love,"she said.
1. A. recognized
B. known
C. praised
D. admitted
答案: A
指导:recognize此处意为“承认(地位、影响等)”。此处指在动物研究方面得到世界公认的人屈指可数。known"被知道”语意太轻,“赞扬”意义太片面,admitted"被接受”不合题意。
2. A. receiving
B. giving
C. enjoying
D. having
答案: C
指导:enjoymg为现在分词做伴随(结果状语),意为“享有(地位、声誉等)。此处根据题意不能用“收到”或“给”;have一词不能用于进行时。
3. A. So
B. Actually
C. But
D. Finally
答案: C
指导:转折词but与前文形成对比关系,强调Jane Goodall成就非凡。此处与前面构成的是转折关系,其他选项不合逻辑。
4. A. discoveries
B. decisions
C. choices
D. findings
答案: A
指导:makeadiscovery为固定短语“发现”。findings意思也是“发现”,但与动词make不搭配。
5. A. study
B. interest
C. sense
D. dream
答案: B
指导:从全文看,JaneGoodall一生都对动物“感兴趣”。sense意为“感觉”,其他也不合题意。
6. A. was fond of
B. tired of
C. insisted
D. dreamed of
答案: D
指导:dreamOf doing sth.“梦想干……”,此处指Jane
Goodall一直梦想着到非洲去。Befond of “喜欢”;betired of“厌倦干”;insisted on"坚持要”。
7. A. boys
B. girls
C. men
D. women
答案: B
指导:由常识以及后面的"wildactions"可知,此处指“女孩”,即女孩一般不会有这么狂野的行为。把握了人物的身份再结合常识可排除其他选项。
8. A. encouraged
B. prevented
C. advised
D. forced
答案: A
指导:由转折词But可知,Jane Goodall得到母亲的“鼓励”。由后面母亲鼓励她的活可排除其他选项。
9. A. knowledge
B. youth
C. hope
D. chances
答案: D
指导:母亲鼓励她应充分利用“机会”,不达目的,决不罢休。“知识”“青春”“希望”均不合题意。
10. A. accepted
B. refused
C. hesitated
D. considered
答案: A
指导:JaneGoodall愉快地“接受”了朋友的邀请。accept意为“接受”邀请、建议等。hesitate“犹豫”,consider“考虑”不合题意。
11. A. only
B. last
C. special
D. first
答案: C由全文内容判断,在非洲森林中研究黑猩猩是一项“特殊”的任务,因此需要Jane
Goodall这样“特殊的”人选。此处不说明顺序问题,因此排除其他选项
12. A. project
B. study
C. center
D. career
答案: B
指导:通览全文可知,此处指对黑猩猩的“研究”。扣住文章的中心可排除其他选项。
13. A. hard
B. interesting C. easy
D. convenient
答案: C
指导:由后文黑猩猩一开始恐惧地逃跑这一信息可知,这不是“容易的”工作。
14. A. in surprise
B. in a hurry C. as expected D. in fear
答案: D
指导:由语境判断,黑猩猩是“惊恐地”逃跑。结合原文叙述的中心:女科学家在非洲大森林中研究黑猩狸这一特殊的情况可排除其他干扰项。
15. A. will
B. body
C. desire
D. mind
答案: A
指导:Jane Goodall虽然遇到困难,们并未放弃,因此是“意志”坚强。此处不指强壮的“身体”,强烈的“欲望”等。
16. A. far
B. near
C. soon
D. much
答案: C
指导:有后面黑猩猩“逐渐”适应了JaneGoodall的出现判断,应用soon,因为soon意为“快”,指“时间”概念。其他不指“时间概念”。
17. A. nets
B. tools
C. holes
D. sticks
答案: B
指导:从下文的toolmaker判断,这是JaneGoodall的重大发现:黑猩猩也会制作并使用“工具”。但此处并不涉及具体使用什么样的工具,故不选D“棍棒”。
18. A. doubt
B. light
C. questions
D. beliefs
答案: A
指导:由于JaneGoodall的发现使人们对当时大家普 遍接受的观点产生了怀疑。throw doubt on意为“对……产生疑问”。而throwlight
on的意思是“使……明朗”。
19. A. close
B. similar
C. friendly
D. helpful
答案: B
指导:JaneGoodall的发现使人们认识到黑猩猩与人类很“相似”。close表示关系“亲密”或实力“接近”,不合逻辑。
20. A. improvement
B. protection C. pollution
D. destruction
答案: B
指导:Jane Goodall想通过自己的演讲提高人们环境“保护”的意识。由常识可排除improvement“改进”;destruction"破坏”不合题意。
