5.Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind,unless they hunt them for food.Sometimes,however,two kinds of animals come together in a partnership (伙伴關(guān)系) which is good for both of them.You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep.This is not because they want a ride,but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生蟲) on sheep.The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort.So although they  can manage without each other,they do better together.
Sometimes an animal has a plant partner.The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other.This is so in the corals (珊瑚) of the sea.In their skins they have tiny plants which act as"dustman",taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe.If the plants are killed,or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally,the corals will die.

21.Some birds like to sit on a sheep becauseA.
A.they can eat its parasites
B.they depend on the sheep for existence
C.they enjoy traveling with the sheep
D.they find the position most comfortable
22.The underlined word"they"in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to
B.
A.birds and parasites
B.birds and sheep
C.parasites and sheep
D.sheep,birds and parasites
23.We learn from the text that the coral depends on the plant forD.
A.comfort        B.light          C.food         D.oxygen
24.What does the second paragraph mainly discuss?A
A.Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.
B.Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.
C.Some plants depend on each other for food.
D.Some animals live better together.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了自然界中有的動物和動物之間看相處的很好,還有的植物和動物是互相依存的關(guān)系.

解答 21.A.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.答案即在"This is not because they want a ride,but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生蟲) on sheep."一句之中.可知鳥喜歡坐在羊的身上,是想吃羊身上的寄生蟲,故選A.
22.B.詞義猜測題:前文中的"The sheep let the birds do so because they can stop the parasites from troubling them."的意思是說"綿羊讓鳥兒落在自己身上,因為鳥兒可以將它們身上的寄生蟲吃掉.";另一句"So though they can do with it by themselves…"的意思是說"盡管它們自己也能對付寄生蟲…".綜合上面兩句話的意思,再結(jié)合"…they can do better together with each other."這一句話,可知they指的是鳥和羊,即得答案為B.
23.D.細(xì)節(jié)理解題:根據(jù)第二段的句子:"…taking the useless things from the coral and giving oxygen in return.That is what the animal needs to live."這兩句話可知,珊瑚需要植物提供的氧氣才能生存下去.故選D.
24.A.推理判斷題:根據(jù)第二自然段的內(nèi)容,Sometimes an animal has a plant partner.珊瑚和它們體內(nèi)的植物具有相互依存的關(guān)系;故選A.

點評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

16.Jeanne Calment,a French woman,became a record breaker on 17 October,1995,when at the age of 120 years and 238 days,she became the longest-lived human being on record.A Japanese man died in 1986 at the age of 120 years and 237 day s.
    Jeanne Calment lives in a small old people's home in the south of France; her husband,her only child and her grandson have all died.She is nearly blind and deaf and is always in a wheelchair,but her doctor describes her as being more like a 90-year-old woman in good health than someone of 120.She still has a lively sense of humor.When asked on her 120th birthday what she expected of the future,she replied:A very short one.She also remarked that she thought the good Lord had forgotten all about her.
    So what is the key to a long life?According to some doctors,diet,exercise and no smoking are the three important factors.Jeanne Calment has followed two of the tips.She has always eaten a healthy diet,and she used to do exercise every day until she broke her leg at the age of 115.However,until recently she drank two glasses of strong red wine a day,and she does smoke (now only a little).Besides,Jeanne Calment might have got very good genes from her parents.Her father lived to the age of 94 and her mother to 86.
A local lawyer bought her house when she was 80 under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death.It must have seemed a good more at the time,but so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house.Every year on her birthday,Jeanne Calment sends him a card saying:Sorry,I'm still alive!
25.How does Jeanne Calment feel about her old age?D
A.She is miserable and unhappy.
B.She feels she is going to die very soon.
C.She would like to live much younger.
D.She is cheerful and humorous.
26.Which of the following word could best replace the word"move"in the fourth paragraph?B
A.trick             B.deal                 C.march                D.sport
27.Why does Jeanne Calment say"Sorry,I'm still alive"to the lawyer every year on her birthday?A
A.Because the lawyer has paid her much more money than the value of the house.
B.Because she has asked the lawyer to pay her more rent than they first agreed.
C.Because she had an agreement at 80 with the lawyer which was to her advantage.
D.Because the house she sold to the lawyer is worth the money he has already paid.
