分析 短文主要讲了英国传统的结婚仪式.

解答 61.when,考查表语从句,根据语境应使用"…的时候"when来引导从句.        
62.commonly,考查副词,此处因使用副词修饰谓语took place.      
63.to buy,考查动词不定式,it是形式主语,此处应使用动词不定式充当句子的真正主语.    
64.for,考查固定搭配,pay for"为…付款".                
65.his,考查代词,此处指"他的女儿"使用形容词性物主代词his.    
66.beautiful,考查形容词,此处应使用形容词beautiful修饰后面的名词dress.    
67.photos,考查名词,a lot of"许多",修饰可数名词复数.         
68.a,考查冠词,meal是可数名词,表示泛指前使用冠词a.            
69.brought,考查谓语动词,表示过去发生的动作应使用一般过去时.         
70.called,考查非谓语,call与其逻辑主语holiday构成被动的关系,因此使用过去分词充当后置定语.

点评 对于语法填空这类题,一是懂得分析句子结构,二是知道充当各个句子成分的词类或词性,从语法上确定答案,当然,对于某些固定搭配也要牢记,在平时的学习中要多积累这些词汇或短语,对于句子使用的时态语态也要通过语境进行确定.

10.In 1985,a lionfish was caught off the coast of Florida.Now they can be found not only in the Atlantic Ocean but also in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.And they are continuing to move south.Lionfish are native to the Indian and western Pacific Oceans.So how did they end up in the Atlantic?Scientists believe some pet owners abandoned their unwanted lionfish and poured them into the sea.Little did they know the trouble their actions would cause.
The Atlantic Ocean turned out to be a comfortable home for lionfish.Their venomous spines (毒刺) protect them from sharks and other fish.Female lionfish can spawn (产卵) every few days,producing as many as 2million eggs per year.Other big fish would have competed with lionfish for food.But overfishing has removed many of these large fish.As a result,the fish have eaten so much that they have grown to be more than three times the size of their cousins in the Pacific and Indian Oceans."They eat mostly fish,"says Stephanie Green,a scientist at Oregon State University.
All that eating has caused great changes.Scientists have found that when lionfish are present somewhere,many other fish,which are small enough for them to eat,disappear.Some of the fish they eat are greatly missed in their habitats.For example,parrotfish eat certain plants off corals (珊瑚),which allows corals to grow better.But they are now disappearing due to lionfish.
Scientists say lionfish are here to stay.But there are ways to deal with the problem.The key,says Green,is to keep lionfish numbers in check.In Florida,divers can now go through a special training program and get certified (授予合格证书) to catch lionfish in areas where fishing is not usually allowed.And a number of restaurants have added the fish to the menu."It's going to be a long-term battle,but the missing sea species will come back someday,"says Green.
29.What can we learn about lionfish?A
A.Its population is growing very quickly.
B.All of them are almost the same size.
C.They eat other big fish and even sharks.
D.Most of them have gathered in the Atlantic.
30.Parrotfish were mentioned to show lionfish'sD.
A.loneliness  
B.carelessness  
C.weakness   
D.harmfulness
31.What is Stephanie Green's attitude towards the battle against lionfish?B
A.She doubts it.
B.She is hopeful of it.
C.She is worried about it.
D.She thinks it is against the law.
8.No offence to you,but scientists have found that mosquitoes may find your feet as attractive as Limburger cheese.If that's you,don't feel embarrassed-it doesn't mean you're not washing them enough.Mosquitoes are simply attracted by certain DNA.
A UK research team recently investigated the genetic role in mosquito attraction by testing the bite appeal of 18twin sisters and 18 non-twin sisters.In a series of tests,20hungry mosquitoes were released into the end of a Y-shaped tube and allowed to choose left or right.Down either path was one sister's hand,releasing its delicious natural odors but protected from bites behind a net screen.After testing all 36pairs,scientists found that the twin pairs had consistently more similar attraction scores than the non-twin ones did-specifically,67 percent of a person's insect appeal had to do with her genes.
So what's the deal:does DNA smell?Thankfully,no.But specific DNA does attract unique species of microbacteria to your body-and those are what mosquitoes just can't resist.
Each of us,right now,is covered with about 100 trillion microbes(微生物),outnumbering our human DNA ten to one.Maybe weirder still:scientists believe we share only a fraction of these microbial species with one another,making our'microbiome'-the world of bacteria living in and on us-unique,just like our fingerprints.In addition to producing many of the vitamins and chemicals in our blood,our microbiome is thought to be responsible for most of our distinct odors as well.
Different mosquitoes prefer different smells from different parts of the body-that's why Anopheles gambiae (known for spreading malaria) prefers biting hands and feet,while others go right for the armpits or groin.And those smells come from chemicals produced by our microbiomes.So the next time a group of hungry mosquitoes swarms your cousin but leaves you bite-free,thank your DNA for the world of microscopic creatures on your skin that produce just the right smell to keep the bloodsuckers away.

D.Mosquitoes are simply attracted by certain DNA.
15.It is common that we may hear many stories of individuals who've adopted a zero-waste lifestyle,but it's not often that we come across an entire community that is trying to become waste-free.The residents of Kamikatsu,Japan,take recycling so seriously that they actually hope to become the nation's first zero-waste community by 2020.
Kamikatsu has no garbage trucks-so residents need to compost(制成堆肥)their kitchen waste at home.They also have to wash and sort the rest of their waste into 34 different categories,and bring it to the recycling center themselves where workers make sure that the waste goes into the correct bins.It apparently took some time for the residents to get used to this rule,but they eventually managed to adapt to the changes and are now seeing them as normal.The Japanese town has turned recycling into a streamlined process-there are separate bins for different types of paper products,and even plastic bottles and their caps go into different bins.The labels on each bin show the recycling process for that specific item,so the residents know exactly what happens to their waste.
Reuse is highly encouraged in Kamikatsu-they have a local kuru-kuru shop where residents can exchange used items with new things at no extra cost.And the kuru-kuru factory employs women to make bags,clothes,and dolls out of these items.Businesses are also encouraged to participate in waste management-the town has a zero-waste brewery,housed in a building constructed of reused materials.
All the recycling facilities in Kamikatsu are managed by a Zero Waste Academy which also regularly hosts groups of local schoolchildren and foreign visitors,educating them on the benefits of a zero waste lifestyle.

33.According to Paragraph 2,we can learnA.
A.the Japanese town has made recycling a routine
B.there are part-time workers to sort out the waste
C.the labels show the citizens how to compost their waste
D.the kitchen waste must be sorted out into different kinds
34.What does the Zero Waste Academy do?C
A.it helps the citizens to exchange used items with new things at no extra cost.
B.it employs women to make bags,clothes,and dolls out of these items.
C.it educates people to live in a zero waste lifestyle.
D.it constructs buildings with reused materials.
35.What does the passage mainly talk about?D
A.The benefits of a zero waste lifestyle.
B.The effective management of waste recycling.
C.How can we use the recycled items?
D.How does Kamikatsu,become a zero-waste community?
5.A couple who thought they had a fashionable micropig were surprised when their pet grew into a 47-stone monster.
The pig Esther heavier than a fully grown polar bear lives in their house along with two dogs and a cat.But owners Steve Jenkins and Derek Walter thought she would stay a cute small piggy,never weighing more than five stone.The two-year-old pig is an Internet superstar and even has her own Facebook page.Esther the Wonder Pig has an amazing 235,000 followers.
Her owner,Steve,from Ontario,Canada,said,"Friends would come over and say'she's getting bigger'and Derek and I would say'no,she's not'.Bur soon she was standing to steal things off the kitchen counters,the sofa became smaller,and of course there was the weight gain.We just adapted and loved her more.What else could we do?It wasn't her fault and we would never give up a pet.At night,when we lived in Georgetown she had a mattress(床垫)in the living room,but since we moved to the farm she has decided she needs to be close to us and now sleeps beside our bed with her mattress on the floor.She still on occasion climbs up onto our bed for a nap during the day."
Esther is now almost ten times her expected size.She also enjoys fresh fruit and vegetables like ripe bananas.The cute pink animal spends her days rooting in the gardens,eating,sleeping and playing with her other friends.
