题目内容

The meat could ________ fresh if you put it in the fridge.


  1. A.
    become
  2. B.
    stay
  3. C.
    turn
  4. D.
    make
B
解析:空格后的fresh是形容词,而句意为:如果你把肉放在冰箱里,肉就会保持新鲜。故本题应选一个连系动词,故不选D项。become和turn虽然都可以用作连系动词,但这两个词均表示变化,用在这里不符合逻辑。因此B为正确答案。Stay在这里相当于keep或remain,意为“保持”。

  The well-mannered Englishman at table holds and keeps his knife in his right hand, his fork in his left, cuts his meat and presses his vegetables into his fork. The well mannered American first cuts up all his meat, then places his knife down on the right of his plate, takes his fork in his right hand and with his fork lifts the food to his mouth.

Should we be afraid of sharks(鲨鱼)? Maybe not. New research into the reasons for shark attacks (攻击) suggests that sharks don’t like the way humans taste! In fact, most people who are attacked by the shark are still alive after receiving only one bite (咬). Why is this?

     There are many opinions to explain why sharks sometimes attack people. One opinion is that sharks are just curious (好奇的). We know that sharks are the strongest animals in their environment, so they are not afraid of anything. Naturally, that means they are curious when they meet something unusual. Because they don’t have hands or feet., the only way they can find out an object is to bite it! It is thought that sharks sometimes bite humans for this reason, and then swim away.

     Scientists also say that sharks would not waste energy trying to eat a human, as we have a lot of bones (骨头). It is hard for a shark to eat us because sharks don’t have hands, and they can’t pull the meat off our bones. Maybe that’s why they only bite us once. Unluckily, one bite from a large shark is serious enough to hurt people greatly!

     Another opinion is that sharks attack humans by mistake. Some sharks may sometimes mistake humans for a seal. An example of this is when a shark  attacks a surfer. A surfer lying on a surfboard looks like a seal when seen from below. Sharks like seals because they have thick fat.

     Whatever the reason for shark attacks on humans, sharks should be afraid of us. Sadly, we kill almost 40 million of them each year.

1.What happens to people attacked by sharks?

A. Most of them because blind.          B. Most of them because of deaf.

C. Most of them died.                  D. Most of them are still alive.

2. How do sharks find out about an unusual object according to the passage?

A. By biting.                         B. By smelling.

C. By touching.                       D. By killing.

3.Which sentence about sharks is true?

A. Sharks pull meat off bones when they eat.

B. Sharks might mistake humans for seals.

C. Sharks like to attack surfers because of their thick fat.

D. One bite from a shark is nothing serious.

4.What would the author write the passage mainly for?

A. To tell surfers to stay away from sharks.

B. To ask people to stop killing sharks.

C. To let us know the reasons for shark attacks on people.

D. To show that humans are much stronger than sharks.

Ellen Parker was worried about her health. She could not walk very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stars. She was soon out of breath (气喘吁吁).

“I suppose I had better go to the doctor,” she thought.

She went to the doctor and told him her problem.

“I’m not surprised at all,” he said. “It’s obvious what your problem is.”

“Certainly, madam,” the butcher replied and went into the cold room and found a large piece of steak. He brought the huge piece of meat back into the shop and put it on the scale (天平).

“That’s just under ten pounds,” he said.

“That big enough,” Mrs. Parker said.

The butcher worked out the price.

“At $4.99 a pound that will be $49.50, please. Would you like me to cut it up into smaller pieces for you?”

“Oh, I don’t want to buy the meat,” Mrs. Parker said.
