【解析】

試題分析:通過閱讀,完成詞匯在特定語境下的正確運(yùn)用。詞語形式的變化要考慮它們在句子中所做的成分和固定搭配等。

【1】of 句意:因為寫作的原因去一個小鎮(zhèn),his writing是名詞,前面用because of。

【2】said句意:朋友告訴他那里有很多蚊子,全文是用一般過去時,所以這里應(yīng)該用過去式形式said。

【3】It 句意:沒關(guān)系。It doesn't matter.沒關(guān)系。

【4】to visit 句意:蚊子不是我的親戚,他們不會來看我。用動詞不定式to visit表目的。

【5】a 句意:到達(dá)小鎮(zhèn)后,馬克·吐溫住在車站附近的一個小旅館內(nèi),hotel是可數(shù)名詞,根據(jù)語境可知這里是說一個,用a表一個。

【6】when句意:正當(dāng)他要睡覺的時候有蚊子在他周圍飛。當(dāng)……的時候when,和be about to do sth.連用。

【7】a句意:很多蚊子在周圍飛。quite a few 是短語,意思是:相當(dāng)多的。

【8】to句意:有一個服務(wù)員對他說抱歉。say to sb.,意思是:對……說。

【9】saying句意:馬克吐溫開玩笑,講了一個笑話,笑話的內(nèi)容是引號里的內(nèi)容。saying作狀語,表示說的動作是主語發(fā)出的。

【10】because句意:他為什么睡得很好嗎?那是因為一整晚服務(wù)員都為他驅(qū)趕蚊子。because后接原因狀語從句。

【題目】That woman carried a new blanket over her arm. Wordlessly, she gave it to me.

“Is it finished?” I asked.

She shook her head. “No. It is ready,” she replied. I handed her the money and took the blanket.

“It is beautiful, so skillfully woven,” I said to my mother. “But what did she mean when she said it was not finished? How can it be ready if it is not finished?”

“I will tell you later,” my mother said, “but first I will take you to the Navajo village.”

We went down to the village. A group of young men were making sand pictures. We walked through the whole village, watching the different things the people were doing.

It was not until that evening that my mother finally explained the Navajo woman’s words.

“Did you notice anything about the things the people were making?” My mother asked.

“What should I have noticed?” I looked at her and asked.

“Each thing the Navajo make has one small part that is not complete. The design in their sand pictures are often not perfectly done, for example---the line of a circle may not quite close. If you look carefully at your blanket, you will probably find a stitch(一針) missing.”

I took the blanket off, but it looked as perfect as any design could be. Then suddenly, I noticed that sure enough a stitch was missing!

“They believe that when anything is completed or finished, it means the end has come--- it will not be perfect until then. Then too, with a circle, they believe that they must leave a pathway for the bad spirits to run away and the good spirits to come in. So, often, they do not make the line close.

【1】The blanket the author received ______.

A. was poorly woven

B. made her think a lot

【3】Which of the following may the Navajo believe?

A. A stitch in time is very important.

B. Life only becomes perfect when you die.

D. You must always try to make your life complete.

【4】What’s the main idea of the text?

【題目】閱讀理解。

One in five people carry a “smart gene” variant(變體)linked to long lifespan,bigger forebrains and enhanced mental ability,researchers have found.

“We’ve known for a long time that people lose cognitive(認(rèn)知) abilities as they age,but now we’re beginning to understand that factors like KLOTHO can give people a boost in aging.Genetic variation in KLOTHO could help us predict brain health and find ways to protect people from the diseases that happen to us as we grow old,like Alzheimer’s disease(老年癡呆癥),” said senior author,Dena Dubal of University of California.

The KLOTHO gene affects a protein found in the kidneys and the brain that regulates many different body processes.About one in five people carry a single copy of the variant,known as KL-VS,which boosts levels of the protein and is associated with a longer lifespan and improved heart and kidney function.A small minority,3% of the population,has two copies,which is linked to a shorter lifespan.

In the new study scientists scanned the brains of 422 men and women aged 53 and over who were also tested for the KLOTHO gene.They found that participants with a single copy of the gene variant also had a larger brain region known as RDLPFC,which is especially likely to shrink with age.Loss of neurons in this area may be one reason why older people are sometimes easily distracted and find it difficult to do more than one task at the same time.

Researcher Dr Jennifer Yokoyama said,“The brain region enhanced by genetic variation in KLOTHO is vulnerable(脆弱的)in aging and some mental disease.In this case,bigger size means better function.It will be important to determine whether the structure increase associated with carrying one copy of KL-VS can offset the cognitive(認(rèn)知的)shortage caused by disease.”

People who have one copy of a variant KL-VS tend to live longer and have lower chances of suffering a stroke(中風(fēng)),whereas people who have two copies may live shorter lives and have a higher risk of stroke.

【1】What can we learn from the second paragraph?

A.People’s cognitive abilities do not decline if people have KLOTHO.

B.With the clear understanding of KLOTHO,Alzheimer’s disease can be cured now.

C.Genetic variation in KLOTHO could be helpful in treating mental disease in elderly people.

D.Genetic variation in KLOTHO could lead people to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease.

【2】If a person carries two copies of the gene variant,he/she may .

A.have better kidney function

B.have a shorter lifespan

C.have a higher level of the protein in his/her body

D.suffer from some cognitive disease

【3】The reason why older people’s attention is easily distracted may be that .

A.they have fewer neurons in the RDLPEC

B.their brain region is too large

C.they have two copies of the gene variant

D.they have more neurons in the RDLPEC

【4】What does the underlined word “offset” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.Prevent. B.Balance.

C.Keep. D.Promote.

With the summer holiday just around the corner, it seems like everybody is busy planning their vacations. Here are some tips that can help you enjoy your holiday without emptying your pocket:

Travel off-season

Go to your desired destination while the demand is low and take advantage of huge discounts. During the peak season, the hotel and flight prices increase quickly, and you’ll likely spend more of your vacation time standing in line due to the rush of tourists. 【1】

2_________

Websites can help you find discount hotel rooms. Look for places that do not charge extra for children if they use the existing bedding. Stay with the locals. If you and your family are going to stay for a longer period, renting a small apartment is a good choice.

Eat like a local

Why eat at big chain restaurants when you can experience something new? 3 During your family trip, try new food where the locals eat. This will not just save money, but also provide you with a new and different experience. For smaller meals and snacks, avoid restaurants and try street food or other takeout.

Don’t hesitate to bargain

Tourist-heavy places are known for overcharging for just about everything. Clothes, travel goodies, souvenirs, etc. are very expensive at these places. 4 Bargain hard to get the best price.

Choose local transportation

5 Instead, take buses, railways or subways, which are always cheaper. If you are planning to stay for a while, you can consider renting a car. Hiring a car is much easier than carrying your bags everywhere if you are moving around a lot.

A. Save on hotels.

B. Surf the Internet while traveling.

C. Therefore, avoid buying anything there.

D. So it’s best to find out when the off-season starts.

E. For this reason, you shouldn’t feel ashamed to ask for bargains.

F. Planning your meals is another way to reduce your travel costs.

G. As a tourist, avoid taking taxis whenever possible, since they are expensive.
