16.Welcome back to the hot topic of studying abroad!Last time,we talked about the general"soft-ware"needed to have a (61)successful(success)  studying experience overseas,(62)whichrefers to the ability to understand western culture,and problem solving skills when (63)facing(face)  critical situations,etc..
Now,1will dig deeper into the concept of software".Everyone is talking about culture shock nowa-days,but you may wonder what it actually (64)means(mean).Simply put:culture shock is the diffi-culty people may experience when being exposed and adjusting to a (65)remarkably (remarkable)  different new culture.Usually,people often go (66)throughfour distinct phases:the honeymoon phase,the ne-gotiation phase,the adjustment phase and the mastery phase.Culture shock can happen immediately upon your (67)arrival(arrive)  in the country.
For international students,perhaps the most direct impact of culture shock is the variety of accents,especially in multicultural countries (68)likethe U.S.Canada or Australia.There are two main reasons:Firstly,these countries have highly diversified groups of residents from different cultural (69)backgrounds(background).Secondly,there are many international students from all around the world every year studying in these countries,so you shouldn't be surprised (70)to find(find) all kinds of unfamiliar accents around the university campus.

分析 本文为社会文化类说明文,文中讲述的是关于国外留学的话题,对于留学生来讲,出国面临的最大挑战就是文化冲击,要适应这一文化冲击,通常要经历四个阶段:蜜月期,谈判期,调整阶段和掌握阶段.对于国际学生来说,最直接的冲突是不同的口音,尤其是在美国,加拿大和澳大利亚这样的文化多元化国家.

解答 61.successful;考查形容词,此处用形容词形式修饰后面的名词短语 studying experience.
62.which;考查关系代词,这里是一个非限制性定语从句,所以用关系代词which在从句中做主语,代替先行词software.         
63.facing;考查分词作状语,分词作状语时,现在分词表示主动,过去分词表示被动,根据句意"当你面对批评的时候"可知此处表示主动关系,所以用现在分词作状语.    
64.means;考查动词的时态,本文用了一般现在时态,所以此处也要用一般现在时与上下文保持一致,主语为it,故动词用第三人称单数形式.
65.remarkably;考查副词,此处需要修饰的是形容词  different,所以用副词形式 remarkably.
66.through;考查固定短语,go through是固定搭配,意为"经历,度过".     
67.arrival;考查名词,空格前面是形容词性物主代词your,所以空格处要用名词或动名词形式.
68.like;考查介词,此处like用作介词,意为"像",用来举例;句意为"像美国,加拿大和澳大利亚这样的多元文化的国家…".       
69.backgrounds;考查名词复数,前面有different表明不同的,所以要用名词的复数形式.   
70.to find;考查动词的不定式,be surprised to do 是固定用法,意为"做某事感到吃惊".

点评 答题前一定要通读全文,了解大意;语法填空用在整体理解文章的大意和逻辑的基础上关注句子的结构,关注其中的固定搭配.
答题中,一定要认真分析,注意选项与上下文的逻辑关系;答完后再通读一篇文章,看看所选选项能不能是语句通顺,语意连贯.

11.The US plans to extend its endangered species protection to lions in Africa.US Fish and  Wildlife Service(FWS)will classify lions in southern and eastern Africa as threatened.The  move will place tighter restrictions on the import of lion"trophies",such as paws or heads.
While the US cannot regulate hunting in other countries,the move is significant because around half of a11lion hunting in Africa is conducted by Americans.According to FWS data,more than 5,600lions have been killed and imported by American hunters over the past    decade.
Under the new FWS rules,bringing lion parts to the US will be banned in most circumstances if the animal is from a country where lions are endangered.Hunters will have to show the trophies were"legally obtained"from countries that have"a scientifically sound management program that benefits the subspecies in the wild".
This regulation is expected to place a far greater burden of proof upon hunters who claim  that the money from lion hunting has been used to help communities in Africa and the overall  conservation of lions.The persistent downward trend in lion numbers,due to habitat loss and hunting by locals and foreign tourists,suggests there has been little conservation benefit from organized hunts.
An international study,published in September,found African lion numbers have    decreased by half since 1993,with a further 50%decline expected over the next 20years for    populations in west,central and east Africa.
"The lion is one of the planet's most beloved species and an irreplaceable part of our shared global heritage,"said Dan Ashe,director of the FWS."If we want to ensure that healthy lion populations continue to wander around the African savannas and forests of India,it's up to all of us-not just the people of Africa and India-to take action.

8.Britain's seed bank,the only one in the world aiming to collect all of the planet's wild plant species,has reached its goal of banking 10 percent by 2010.
The Millennium Seed Bank Project,run by Kew Gardens-one of the oldest botanical gardens-will officially deposit the 24,200th species on Thursday,a pink,wild banana from China.
More than 50 countries are now on board with Kew's giant task but vast places of the globe,including India and Brazil,still need to join in and donate seeds,director Paul Smith said.
The seed bank is one of the largest and most diverse in the world with more than 1.5 billion seeds.Its goal is to help protect the planet's bio-diversity during a time of climate change.
The wild banana seed is under threat of extinction(灭绝) in southwest China from agricultural development.It is a vital food source for Asian elephants and important for growing bananas for human consumption.
Stored at minus-20 degrees centigrade,so they can last for thousands of years,the seeds await the day that scientists hope never comes-when the species no longer exist in the wild.
It is a race against time,Smith said,because in the last decade alone,20 plants held in the bank have already been wiped out in the wild.He estimates that between a third and a quarter will become extinct this century.
"It is urgent and it is happening now.An area,the size of England,is cleared of primary vegetation(植被)every year."Smith said.
Because most of the world's food and medicines come from nature,protecting wild plant species is quite important,scientists say.There are already many other seed banks safeguarding food crops,which only account for 0.6 percent of plant diversity.
For Kew's next goal-to collect a quarter of wild varieties by 2020-the botanists need 10 million pounds a year,or a further 100 million pounds on top of the 40 million they have already been granted.
56.What's the final purpose of the Britain's seed bank?C
A.To collect enough money for the project.
B.To safeguard food crops.
C.To protect wild plants from extinction.
D.To help scientists study wild plants.
57.The wild banana seed in China is in danger because ofA.
A.the expanding of farming work          
B.the climate change in this area
C.the large number of Asian elephants      
D.human's large consumption
58.We can learn from the passage thatB.
A.the seeds in the bank can be used now and then all over the world
B.India and Brazil haven't joined in the Seed Bank Project at present
C.there is only one seed bank in the world at present
D.the wild plants in places like India and China will never die out
59.What does the underlined word"it"in paragraph 7 refer to?B
A.The extinction of plant species.
B.The Millennium Seed Bank Project.
C.Britain's seed bank.
D.Kew Gardens'next goal.
60.Which of the following information isn't mentioned in the passage?C
A.The global partnership of collecting wild plant species.
B.The temperature condition of the conservative wild plant species.
C.The government's financial support for the seed bank project.
D.Scientists'concern on the extinct wild plant species.
5.When I was about 12,I had an enemy,a girl who liked to point out my flaws.Week by week her list  (71)grew (grow):I was very thin,I talked too much,I was too proud,and so on.I tried to ignore this for so long as I could.In the end,though,I got very angry.I ran to my father  (72)with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly,and then he asked."Are the things she says true or not?Janet,haven't you ever wondered (73)what you're really like?Well,you now have that girl's opinion.Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true.Pay no attention to the other things she said."
I did  (74)as he told me.To my great surprise,I discovered that about half the things were true.Some of them I couldn't change,but a good number I  (75)could.For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy.He refused to take it."That's just for you,"he said."You know better than  (76)anyone/anybody else the true about yourself.But you have to learn to listen,not just close your ears in anger and  (77)feel(feel) hurt.When something someone says about you is true,you'll find it will be of help to you.Our world is full of people who think they know what you should do.Don't shut your ears.Listen to them all,(78)buthear the truth and do the right thing you know."
Daddy's advice  (79)returned(return) to me at many important moments.In all my life,I've never had a  (80)better(good) piece of advice.
6.Long ago,sailors sailed to faraway places without the ability to rely on modern instruments to lead the way.Still,many were able to sail across vast,uncharted oceans and arrive at their destinations safely.Why didn't more sailors get lost at sea?What kinds of equipment did they use to find their way?
In early sailing history,few maps were available.Sailors had to rely on memory and on written guides called pilot books.Pilot books offered sailors information about how long it took to get to certain ports and instructions about getting in and out of the ports.Pilot books did not offer much information about sailing far from land.
Later,sailors used maps,charts,and information from other explorers to plan their trips.Early maps and charts offered descriptions of islands and coastlines tht helped sailors navigate.Experienced sailors learned where harbors,fresh water,supplies,and riendly people might be found.They were also able to warn others about dangers.Some of the early navigation practices and equipment used on these ships proved to be quite trustworthy.Early sailors used a tool called the astrolabe (星盘) to figure out the positions of stars and the sun to determine their location.For centuries,sailors planned their routes,sailed,and recorded their progress using the North Star as their only reference.They also used patterns of wind and waves as directional clues.Even though ocean waves may look the same to inexperienced eyes,they have different shapes related to the depth of the ocean and their closeness to land.Sailors even found a way that clouds and seabirds could help them.
The sailors of yesterday relied heavily on their observations and studies of the sea.Although their techniques were simple,they were able to achieve great things during their adventures at sea.

A.established the shipping network    
B.invented many modern sailing tools
C.could locate all the ports and islands  
D.shared information and offered warnings
30.What is Paragraph 4mainly about?D
A.How early sailors found their way.
B.The importance of early navigation.
C.The difficulty of sailing far from land.
D.What arly sailors found on their journeys.
31.What's the author's attitude towards the sailors of yesterday?C
A.Objective.
B.Sympathetic.
C.Praiseworthy.
D.Regretful.
