【题目】China’s first home-built polar research vessel and ice breaker has been named Xuelong 2, or Snow Dragon 2, according to a report of Science and Technology Daily on Tuesday.

The construction (建造)of the ship, jointly designed by China State Shipbuilding Corporation and Finland-based Aker Arctic Technology, was launched (开始建造)by Jiangnan Shipyard (Group) in December. The new vessel will be 122.5 meters long and be able to break through 1.5-meter thick ice at a maximum speed of 3 knots(节,海里), said the Polar Research Institute of China.

Xuelong2 is scheduled to be completed in 2019, when it will team up with the country's currently only icebreaker Xuelong to form a polar research fleet, directing scientific research groups and supplying resources to polar regions.

Xuelong, the country's first icebreaker, was built in Ukraine and put into service in 1994. China first sent a research team to the Antarctic in 1984. Since then, the country has set up four scientific research stations in the Antarctic.

1From the passage, China’s first icebreaker was constructed in_________.

A. Finland B. Ukraine

C. China D. America

2The underlined word “vessel” in first paragraph probably means_________.

A. plane B. train

C. ship D. coach

3The best title for the passage would be __________.

A. China’s first home-built icebreaker named Snow Dragon 2

B. China designed her first icebreaker by herself

C. China has established four scientific research stations in the Antarctic

D. China’s first icebreaker is being built

4According to the passage, __________.

A. Xuelong 2 has been completed

B. The new vessel will be able to break through 3-meter thick ice

C. China’s first icebreaker was put into service in 1984

D. XUelong 2 is being constructed

【答案】

1B

2C

3A

4D

【解析】本文是一篇新闻报道周二科技日报介绍了:中国自主建造的第一艘极地科学考察破冰船------雪龙2

1细节理解题。根据最后一段Xuelong, the country's first icebreaker, was built in Ukraine“雪龙”号由乌克兰赫尔松船厂建造,我国购入后加以改造,成为极地考察船。得知中国第一艘极地科学考察破冰船是由乌克兰建造的。故选B。

2词义猜测题。根据第二段The construction (建造)of the ship,得知本文介绍了中国第一艘自主建造的极地科学考察破冰船。故选C。

3主旨大意题。根据首段China’s first home-built polar research vessel and ice breaker has been named Xuelong 2, or Snow Dragon 2, 第一段点明主题,得知本文是一篇新闻报道:中国自主建造的第一艘极地科学考察破冰船------雪龙2故选A。

4推理判断题。根据第三段Xuelong2 is scheduled to be completed in 2019,得知中国极地科学考察破冰船“雪龙2号”正在被建造故选D。

这篇文章内容不是学生非常熟悉的,篇幅适中较长,要求学生快速阅读材料,在掌握文章大意的前提下答题。考查题型以理解细节题为主,还要学生结合文章主旨给出适当的标题,这些不是某个句子可以体现的,要对文章有整体把握。

这篇文章第3题就是标题判断题。学生对标题判断题不能很好的把握,主要还是没有弄清主旨,分析三个选项都出现了关键词icebreaker,但是B项说:中国独自设计第一艘破冰船,显然和文章内容jointly designed by China State Shipbuilding Corporation and Finland-based矛盾,C项是中国在南极洲已经建立四个科考站,明显不够全面,D项虽然也讲的是破冰船,但是将它定义为第一艘在建的破冰船,这和文章内容不符。通过全篇正确理解不难得出答案。

【题目】Honesty is the best policy. We may agree that admitting mistakes and behaving in a genuine way is the right way to lead our lives, but is there something in our human nature that makes us immoral? For example, in some shops and car parks you can find an honesty box-a box where you pay for something by putting money in it-but it relies on you putting the right amount of cash in. This relies on people being honest and not trying to cheat but it does provide a temptation to get away with not paying the full amount.

Philip Graves, a psychologist, suggests that this temptation is part of our evolution. He says: “We have evolved with the ability to be dishonest. It’s part of our evolutionary psychological make-up-because if we can gain an advantage over the people around us, we have a greater chance of surviving.”

So why do we place such importance on being honest if we benefit from being dishonest? It’s because it is selfish behavior. If everybody acted selfishly and dishonestly all the time, the world would be a very unpleasant place. As Philip Graves says: “There is a balance to strike between the extent to which we can feather our own nest, so to speak, and the risk of being ostracized (排斥) by the group.” So, for societies to work together we need to trust each other and therefore we need to be honest.

Being trustworthy with money is of course vital for an economy to survive. But being honest with words is another matter, saying what we think to someone can get us into hot water. However, a new anonymous messaging app has been designed that lets anyone with a link to your profile (简介) to send you a message without knowing who it’s from. The app now has 300 million users which perhaps indicates how honest we really like to be-but in all honesty, do you want to know what people think about you? Is honesty always the best policy?

1What does an honesty box require people to do?

A. Get the change out of it freely. B. Put the correct amount of money in it.

C. Donate the pocket money to others. D. Pay a larger amount of money.

2According to Philip Graves, being dishonest .

A. is a disadvantage B. should be advocated

C. is part of our evolution D. helps people survive, better

3What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

A. The reason for being honest B. The benefit of being dishonest

C. The outcome of selfishness D. The importance of group work

4What can we infer from the text?

A. Honesty is always the best policy.

B. The author is in favor of dishonesty.

C. The market of the new app is promising.

D. Being honest with words is sometimes improper.
