　　.阅读理解

　　The elephant was lying heavily on its side,fast asleep.A few dogs started barking at it.The elephant woke up in terrible anger:it chased(追逐) the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.

　　That didn’t stop the elephant.It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people.The villagers were scared and angry.Then someone suggested calling Parbati,the elephant princess.

　　Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer(驯兽师).He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk.He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up—how to catch wild elephants.

　　Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle.After a happy childhood hunting with her father,she was sent to a boarding school in the city.But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life.“Life in the city is too dull.Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,”she said.

　　But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun.“My work,”she said,“is to rescue men from the elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from men.”And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years.Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry:for many years,illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back.Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village,Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.

　　The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion.A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant.“Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them.They are also more loyal than humans,”she said,as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant,happy animal.An elephant princess indeed!

　　1.For Parbati,catching elephants is mainly to 　. 

　　A.get long lasting excitement

　　B.keep both men and elephants safe

　　C.send them back to the jungle

　　D.make the angry elephants tame

　　2.Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,　. 

　　A.she had spent her time hunting with her father

　　B.she had learned how to sing love songs

　　C.she had already been called an elephant princess

　　D.she had been taught how to hunt tigers

　　3.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because 　. 

　　A.they are caught and sent for heavy work

　　B.illegal hunters capture them and kill them

　　C.they are attacked and their land gets limited

　　D.dogs often bark at them and chase them

　　4.The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that 　. 

　　A.people easily fall victim to elephants’ attacks

　　B.the man-elephant relationship is getting worse

　　C.elephant tamers are in short supply

　　D.dogs are as powerful as elephants

　　.【语篇导读】本文介绍了大象公主Parbati的故事。

　　1.B　细节理解题。根据第五段的第二句“‘My work,’she said,‘is to rescue men from the elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from men.’”可知,Parbati捕捉大象主要是为了保障大象与人的安全,故选B项。

　　2.A　细节理解题。根据第四段的第二句“After a happy childhood hunting with her father,she was sent to a boarding school in the city”可知,Parbati与父亲一起打猎度过了一个幸福的童年,之后被送去市里的一个寄宿学校,故选A项。

　　3.C　细节理解题。根据第五段的第四句“Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry:for many years,illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land”可知,大象因遭到非法狩猎者的袭击以及领地受限而对人类进行报复,故选C项。

　　4.B　推理判断题。根据文章整体内容可推知,文章以一个大象的故事开头是为了展现人类和大象日益紧张的关系,故选B项。

　　.【语篇导读】本文描述了一只小鸡为了生存与各种困难顽强抗争的故事。

　　1.C　根据下文中的“When we saved her”可知,她是被从农场救出来的140只小鸡中的一只。raise“举起,养育”;purchase“购买”;rescue“营救”;collect“收集”。

　　2.D　根据空前的“she was tiny and sick”可知,小鸡生病了而且还很弱小,故此处是说她似乎不太可能活下来。hopeful“有希望的”;proper“恰当的”;possible“可能的”;unlikely“不大可能的”。

　　3.B　根据“many of the chickens were sick”可判断出,因为没有得到适当的照顾,很多小鸡才会生病甚至一些不幸死亡。touch“触摸”;care“照顾”;gift“礼物”;partner“搭档”。

　　4.A　参见上题解析。sadly“不幸地”;angrily“愤怒地”;coldly“冷漠地”;calmly“平静地”。

　　5.C　根据下文的“Luckily another mother”以及“Aurora had lost two moms”可以推断,第一个母亲遗弃了她和她的兄弟姐妹们。punish“惩罚”;refuse“拒绝”;abandon“遗弃”;scold“责骂”。

　　6.A　幸运的是,另外一个母亲决定照顾他们。take on“决定做,承担”;put forward“提出”;look after“照顾”;bring about“导致”。

　　7.A　根据下文“她比她的兄弟姐妹们长得慢”可知,此处是说她看起来是最后一个得到(get)食物和关心的。

　　8.B　根据本文第一句提到的“small stature(身高)”以及上一句提到的“last to　7　food and attention”可以判断,Aurora生长的速度慢于她的兄弟姐妹们,所以个子小。cost“成本”;rate“速度”;standard“标准”;value“价值”。

　　9.D　根据上文的叙述可知,Aurora的生活不如意,因此一切似乎都在和她作对。against“逆,反对”,符合语境。

　　10.C　Aurora已经失去了两个妈妈,她需要努力找栖身之处。struggle“拼搏,努力”,符合语境。

　　11.B　此处与上一段相呼应,她在努力寻找之后,终于(eventually)找到了安慰。

　　12.D　虽然找到了安身之处,可是Margaret因为年老而死去了。此空前后之间在意思上是转折关系,因此选but。

　　13.A　Aurora每天晚上都到同样的地方去陪伴Margaret。此处用same表示她的执着。same“同样的”;relevant“有关的”;similar“类似的”;normal“正常的”。

　　14.C　甚至当别的小鸡推开她时,她会再回来。still“仍然”;thus“因此”;even“甚至”;yet“然而”。

　　15.D　参见上题解析。push away“推开”。

　　16.B　根据文章的第一句“Don’t let Aurora’s small stature(身高)fool you—her spirit is strong”可知,我们为Aurora只要活着的热情而感到惊讶。nervous“紧张的”;amazed“惊奇的”;excited“兴奋的,激动的”;disappointed“失望的”。

　　17.D　没有什么能使她停下来。help“帮助”;attract“吸引”;impress“给……留下深刻印象”;stop“停止”。

　　18.A　综合上文,生活对于Aurora来说一直是艰难的,所以当生活似乎很艰难时,你可以想想她的遭遇。tough“艰难的,棘手的”;different“不同的”;smooth“顺利的”;boring“无趣的,乏味的”。

　　19.C　本句话的三个并列谓语都是Aurora的经历,所以选择recovered与“from serious illnesses”搭配。

　　20.B　尽管尝尽生活的艰辛,Aurora却得到了生活给予她的简单的甜蜜的乐趣,即后面所说的“safety,food,warmth and good friendships”。chance“机会”;pleasure“乐事”;dream“梦想”;service“服务”。

　　.【语篇导读】“我”在去Taiyetos Mountains的途中车子坏了,这时热情的村民帮助了“我”。

　　1.when　考查连词。太阳正要落山突然“我”的车抛锚在一个偏远的村庄附近。

　　2.misfortune　考查名词。所填词有my修饰,应为名词;根据句意该词与提示词语意相反。此处表示“我”咒骂自己的不幸。

　　3.were arguing　考查过去进行时。分析句子结构,宾语从句中缺少谓语;根据语境可知,此处表示“村民们围着我在争论谁会很荣幸地邀请到我这位客人”。

　　4.as　考查介词。as a guest“作为客人”。

　　5.an　考查冠词。此处表示一位80岁的农妇。因为数字80的英语发音以元音音素开头,所以用an。

　　6.to　考查介词。村长把他的马绑到“我”的汽车上,将汽车拉去一个小镇上的汽车修理厂。

　　7.where　考查定语从句。a small town作为先行词,所填词在从句中做地点状语,所以用where引导该定语从句。

　　8.running　考查非谓语动词。notice sb./sth.doing sth.“注意到某人或某物正在做某事”,此处表示“我”看到三只母鸡在女主人家的院子里跑着,结果晚上其中的一只就成了“我”桌子上的菜了。

　　9.merrily　考查副词。修饰动词talked应用副词。

　　10.had caused　考查过去完成时。“带来麻烦”发生在“想报答”之前,为过去的过去,所以用过去完成时。句意:“我”想报答那位老妇人,因为“我”给她带来了麻烦,但是她拒绝了。
