题目内容
|
解析:
(1) |
own表示“拥有”。从下文可以看出,由于地球上的水源不充足,凡是有泉水的地方就意味着控制。 |
(2) |
根据下文中的the desert可判断出是干旱地区。distant表示“遥远的”;deserted表示“废弃的”;wild表示“野生的”。 |
(3) |
rich land指“富饶的土地”。比较上文中的desert可确定选rich,表示“即使没有大片的富饶土地也能控制”。 |
(4) |
uncommon意为“罕有的;少见的”。这是一个双重否定句,表示在早期美国西部的人们为了水源发生枪战的事并不罕见。 |
(5) |
make laws表示“制订法律”。design意为“设计”;sign意为“签署”;write意为“写”。 |
(6) |
settler指“定居者;移民者”。句意表示“制订法律保护定居者用水的权利和按照规定使用水源”。winner指“胜利者”;fighter指“战士”;supporter指“支持者”。 |
(7) |
as引导定语从句,意为“正如……”。如果用形式主语It,则应表达为 7 is known to us all that there is not 8 water in all places for everyone to use as much as he likes. |
(8) |
enough意为“足够的”。根据常识可推断出世界上没有足够的水供人们随便使用。plentiful表示“绰绰有余的”。 |
(9) |
the amount of water表示“水量”。type意为“类型”;quality意为“质量”;level意为“水平”。 |
(10) |
require意为“需要”,句意为“决定任何特殊时期的用水量需要仔细计划”。request意为“请求”;mean意为“意味着”;suggest意为“建议”。 |
(11) |
effectively意为“有效地”。上文“there is not enough water in all places for everyone to use as much as he likes”说明由于水源的不足,需要仔细地计划特殊时期的用水量,以便使人们更加有效地用水。easily意为“容易地;轻易地”;conveniently意为“方便地”;actively意为“积极地”。 |
(12) |
according to意为“根据”,句意为“农民必须根据供水预报改变他们的用水量”。leading to意为“通向;导致”;due to和owing to意为“由于”。 |
(13) |
the correct water supply forecast表示“正确的供水预报”。further表示“进一步的”;average表示“平均的”;early表示“早期的”。 |
(14) |
根据下文中的“depend on the advance knowledge of snow on mountains, not of water underground”可确定应选above与后面的below对应。此处the above指山上的积雪;the below指地下水。 |
(15) |
rise是不及物动词,在该句中表示人们对人工增加降雨量的兴趣不断“增加”。raise是及物动词,后面要接宾语。 |
(16) |
on mountain tops指“在山顶上”。根据常识可知,在冬天,雪会堆积在山顶上。tip指“要点;尖”。 |
(17) |
make use of表示“利用”。句意为“科学家正在研究利用山上积雪的方法”。take care of表示“照料”;pile up表示“堆积”;save up表示“积攒”。 |
(18) |
the gathered data表示“收集、积累的数据”。 |
(19) |
press a button表示“按键”,句意为“操作员只要一按按钮随时都可以获得数据”。 |
(20) |
根据时间状语in the near future可确定要用一般将来时。 |

When you read a story in English, do you read it for the story or for the English? This is a 1 that is not so foolish 2 it may seem. For I 3 that many students of English 4 far more attention to the story than to the English. They read and 5 and for a long time 6 remember the story, but do not care to study the 7 of words and 8 in it. For instance, they care for the memory of 9 the mystery (神秘) in the story is solved, but do not remember a 10 sentence in the story and cannot 11 what preposition is used before or after a certain 12 in the speech of a 13 character.
