题目内容

6.Since Socrates never wrote a book,we know ______ about his philosophy.(  )
A.a littleB.littleC.fewD.a few

分析 因为Socrates从来不写书,所以关于他的人生观我们几乎无从知晓.

解答 答案:B
解析:a little/few用于肯定句,表示肯定含义;little/few用于否定句,表示否定含义.本题中根据前面的never"从不"可知,我们对于他的人生观应该是"知之甚少";故A、D选项排除.关于他的人生观这一方面的"信息"是不可数名词,故C选项排除.综上,本题答案为B选项.

点评 本题考查量词的辨析,做此类题目时一定要清楚各个选项的含义及用法;再结合句意及其它要求确定最终的答案.

8.As the population of the planet increases,so does the number of homes,business,parking lots,schools,airports and roadways.All these structures use electricity and need to be lighted.Humans demand light.They want their homes more comfortable and they want their streets safe.The problem is that researchers are finding that all the light is having a negative effect on humans and wildlife as well.
Less than 10years ago I drove to a thinly populated section of my own,lay down in the middle of the road and watched an attractive meteor shower(流星雨).If I did that today,I wouldn't be able to see the meteor shower.
Nowadays scientists are finding light pollution can be almost as bad as carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)pollution.One of the saddest parts of light pollution is that most of it is unnecessary and most of the outdoor light that we use is wasted.One only needs to look at a row of street lights to see how much of the lights shines upwards and lights the sky:a total waste of electricity.
Additionally,the production of electricity creates pollution by releasing greenhouse gases.This affects the air we breathe and our quality of life.
Scientists are also studying the effects of light pollution on wildlife.Thousands of birds die each year when they crash into highly lighted buildings,as they become puzzled by the light.It has been long known that tiny baby sea turtles become lost and follow the light on the shore instead of heading towards the sea.
Fortunately,light pollution is one of the easiest sources of pollution that can be corrected without a negative effect.Following some guidelines and a little searching on Google can give you many ideas on how to reduce your contribution to light pollution.

33.According to the passage,the best way to deal with light pollution is toC.
A.Reducing the output of lights
B.Educating people about light pollution
C.Avoiding the use of unnecessary lighting
D.Inventing environmentally-friendly lights
34.What can be inferred from the passage?D
A.Astronauts can't see clearly in space nowadays
B.Global warming results in light pollution in some way
C.We are almost at a loss how to deal with light pollution
D.Some animals use natural light to direct their movements.
35.What will probably be provided following the last paragraph?D
A.Benefits of searching on Google 
B.More bad effects of light pollution
C.Helpful tips for suffering the Internet 
D.Ways to decrease light pollution.

15.Sleep,as mysterious as it is vital for our wellbeing,is part of a person's daily physiological activity.Over the decades,researchers have proposed several mechanisms through which sleep helps us(41)C,but we still don't fully(42)Athe big picture.Now,two recently published studies come up with an interesting(43)B:we sleep to forget some of the things we learn during the day.
We store memories in networks in our brains.Whenever we learn something new,we(44)Cnew connections between neurons(神经元),called synapses(突触).In 2003,two biologists proposed something very(45)D:during the day,we learn so much and develop so many synapses that things(46)Dget ourselves confused.
For starters,they showed that neurons can prune out(修剪)some synapses,at least in the lab.But they(47)Cthe same things happens every day,naturally,in our brains-probably during(48)B.
So they set up a painstaking experiment,in which an assistant scientist collected 6,920synapses from (49)A,both awake and sleeping.Then,they(50)Athe shape and size of all these synapses,learning that the synapses in sleeping mice were 18percent smaller than in awake ones.
After this,they designed a(51)Ctest for mice.They placed the animals in a room where they would get a mild electrical shock if they walked over one particular (52)Cof the floor.They injected(注射)some of them with a substance that had been proved to prevent the pruning of new synapses.The mice that experienced this were(53)Alikely to forget about the section and after a good night's sleep,they(54)Bto walk as usual,while mice that slept normally remembered better.
Then,they found that the pruning didn't strike every neuron.Some 20% were unchanged,likely well-established memories that shouldn't be tampered with(被窜改).In other words,we sleep to(55)A-but in a smart way.
