题目内容

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Some students who had graduated visited their university professor. The conversation soon turned into【1】(complain) about stress in work and life. 【2】(offer) his guests coffee, the professor 【3】(go) to the kitchen and returned with a pot of coffee and【4】variety of cups—porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking, some expensive—telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

It was when all the students had a cup of coffee in hand that he said, “All the nice-looking expensive cups have been taken up,【5】(leave) behind the plain and cheap ones. Actually, the cup itself adds no quality 【6】the coffee. What all of you really want【7】(be) coffee, not the cup. You consciously went for the best cups, and then you began eyeing others’ cups.”

“Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups,【8】are just tools to hold and contain life. The type of cup we have does not change the quality of life . If we concentrate only on the cups, we fail 【9】(enjoy) the coffee. I【10】(true) hope that you will never let the cups drive you enjoy the coffee instead.”

【答案】

【1】complaints

【2】to offer

【3】went

【4】a

【5】leaving

【6】to

【7】is

【8】which

【9】to enjoy

【10】truly

【解析】

【1】易知此处应填名词，而complaint为可数名词，要加s，故填complaints。

【2】此处不定式表目的，故填to offer。

【3】客人来了，那位教授走进厨房，回来的时候带着咖啡和杯子。用一般过去式：went。

【4】从下文：orcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking, some expensive可知教授拿来各种各样的杯子。a variety of各种各样的。故填a。

【5】漂亮的杯子都已经被拿走了，剩下的都是普通的。用leaving做结果状语。

【6】实际上，杯子本身并没有给咖啡的质量加分。To表示对象，故填to。

【7】此处表示一种实际情况，用一般现在时，故填is。

【8】这里用which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰cups。故填which。

【9】fail to do sth.意为做某事失败了，故填to enjoy。

【10】我真心的希望你们不要让杯子驱赶着，而要享受里面的咖啡。副词“真正地”truly修饰动词hope。

【题目】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Could your cellphone give you cancer? Whether it could or not, some people are worrying about the possibility that phones, power lines and wi-fi could be responsible for a range of illnesses, from rashes to brain tumors.

Some say there is evidence to support the growing anxieties. David Carpenter, a professor of environmental health sciences at the university at Albany, in New York, thinks there’s a greater than 95 percent chance that power lines can cause childhood leukemia (白血病). Also there’s a greater than 90 percent chance that cellphones can cause brain tumors. “It’s apparent now that there’s a real risk,” said Carpenter.

But others believe these concerns are unjustified. Dr Martha Linet, the head of radiation epidemiology(流行病学) at the US National Cancer Institute, has looked at the same research as Carpenter but has reached a different conclusion. “I don’t support warning labels for cellphones, ” said Linet. “We don’t have the evidence that there’s much danger.”

Studies so far suggest a weak connection between EMFs (电磁场) and illness — so weak that it might not exist at all. A multinational investigation of cellphones and brain cancer, in 13 countries outside the US, has been underway for several years. It’s funded in part by the European Union, in part by a cellphone industry group. The final report should come out later this year, but data so far don’t suggest a strong link between cellphone use and cancer risk.

【1】From the passage we can learn that some people are worried because ________.

A. they have evidence that the use of cellphones can lead to cancer

B. they make a fuss over cellphone use

C. some experts have given a warning

D. cellphones are responsible for brain tumors

【2】By saying “I don’t support warning labels for cellphones,” Dr Martha Linet has the idea that ________.

A. the worrying is unnecessary

B. cancer-warning labels should be on cellphones

C. there is a link between cellphones and cancer

D. cellphones have nothing to do with cancer

【3】Which of the following best describes the attitude of the author towards the debate?

A. Optimistic. B. Objective.

C. Opposite. D. Casual.

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Cellphones: is there a cancer link?

B. There is a link between cellphone and cancer

C. A research on the cellphone

D. The cellphone and radiation epidemiology
