1.本句動(dòng)詞為has been around,意思是has existed,例如:
Mobile phones have been around(=existed)for quite a while. 從該動(dòng)詞語(yǔ)義的延續(xù)特征看,前面的主語(yǔ)(即此空中)不會(huì)是具體的某一項(xiàng)event(=anything that happened);也不是一次adventure(=an unusual,exciting and possibly dangerous activity,journey,experience,etc),因此,可以排除A、C兩項(xiàng)。 如果說(shuō)是the description(=what sth./sb.is like)of the Snowman,也難以涵蓋短文所講述的內(nèi)容,至少還有關(guān)于它的發(fā)現(xiàn)、蹤跡等等,因此,也可以排除D項(xiàng)。 從本段與以下幾段的內(nèi)容看,講述的都是有關(guān)the Snowman的傳說(shuō),也就是story(=an account of events, real or imagined;注意是“一系列”events)。B項(xiàng)在語(yǔ)義和結(jié)構(gòu)上都能滿足要求,可為最佳答案。 下段開頭也再次提及story,采用了“返指”手段,體現(xiàn)全文的呼應(yīng)與一致。本題的解題思路說(shuō)明,考生如能按照要求通讀全文,具備一定的語(yǔ)篇意識(shí),則能更為迅速準(zhǔn)確地找到答案。 2.此處意為Snowman存在的故事已經(jīng)流傳已久,干擾項(xiàng)為A項(xiàng)centuries,因?yàn)橹榉甯浇僳E罕至,有人記述該故事?

A new report says a virus may be at least partly responsible for the disorder in honey bee colonies in the United States.This virus is called Israeli acute paralysis virus.It was first found in Israel in 2004.lan Lipkin at Columbia University in New York and a team reported the new findings in Science Magazine.Doctor Lipkin says the virus may not be the only cause.He says it may work with other causes to produce the collapse disorder. The team found the virus in colonies with the help of a map of honey bee genes that was published last year.They examined thirty colonies affected by the disorder.They found evidence of the virus in twenty-five of them, and in one healthy colony.The next step is further testing of healthy hives. The researchers suggested that the United States may have imported the disorder in bees from Australia.They say the bees may carry the virus but not be affected. The idea is that unlike many American bees, the ability of Australian bees to fight disease has not been hurt by the varroa mite.This insect attacks honey bees, which could make the disorder more likely to affect a hive.Australian bee producers object to these suspicions. And some researchers suspect that bee production in the United States is down mainly because of the weather.Honey bees gather nectar from flowers and trees.The sweet liquid gives them food and material to make honey.But cold weather this spring in the Midwest reduced the flow of nectar in many flowers.Many bees may have starved.Dry weather in areas of the country could also be playing apart. Wayne Esaias is a NASA space agency scientist who keeps bees in his free time.He lives in central Maryland, where he has found that flowers are blooming a month earlier than they did in 1970, which may be partly responsible for the disorder. Wayne Esaias is organizing a group of beekeepers to document nectar flow around the country. What is the author’s attitude toward the cause of this disorder? A.Doubtful. B.Neutral. C.Supportive. D.Negative. The researchers found the virus sharply by . A.studying the published Science Magazine B.researching the causes of bee death C.examining some affected colony D.exploring a connected chart The passage is mainly developed by . A.presenting the effect and analyzing its causes B.making comparisons between two countries C.providing data and examples D.following the time order How many possibilities may be involved in the bee disorder according to the passage? A.Three B.Four C.Five D.Six From the passage we can infer that . A.American bees are more likely to defend themselves against hurt from other insects than Australian ones B.A collection of plants production in U.S ay be influenced by the bee disorder C.Israeli acute paralysis virus should be responsible for the disorder D.The solution to the disorder will be found eventually 查看答案和解析>> 科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2011屆重慶市萬(wàn)州二中高三3月月考英語(yǔ)卷 題型:閱讀理解 US bees operation keeping groups have been attacked seriously by so called Colony Collapse Disorder (蜂群衰竭失調(diào)).Almost 1/2 of their worker bees have vanished during the past season.This disorder has also been reported in Israel, Europe and South America.Bees fly away from the hive and never return.Sometimes they are found dead; other times they are never found.Many crops and trees depend on pollination--- by bees to help them grow.
