题目内容
【题目】用括号中所给词的适当形式填空,使语篇意思完整,必要时请用否定形式。
Many have heard of shark fin soup. This famous and expensive dish is【1】 (especial)popular in southern China. But do you realize that you’re killing a whole shark each time you enjoy a bowl of shark fin soup?
When people catch sharks, they cut off their【2】(fin ) and throw the shark back into the ocean. This is not only cruel, but also harmful to the environment. Without a fin a shark【3】(can) swim any longer and slowly dies. Sharks are at top of the food chain in the【4】(ocean) ecosystem. If their numbers 【5】(drop) too low, it will bring danger to all ocean life. Many believe that sharks can never be endangered because they are the【6】 (strong) in their food chain. But in fact, around 70million sharks are caught and 【7】(trade) in this industry every year.
The numbers of some kinds of sharks has fallen by over 90 percent in the last 20 to 30 years.
Environmental protection groups around the world, such as WildAid and the WWF, are teaching the public about “finning”. They have even asked governments 【8】(develop) laws to stop the sale of shark fins. So far, no scientific studies have shown that shark fins are good for health, so why eat【9】(they)?【10】(help) save sharks!

【解析】
本文主要讲述人们为喝鱼翅汤,大量捕杀鲨鱼,导致鲨鱼数量大幅度减少,置整个海洋生态系统处于危险之中,危害环境,作者呼吁人们停止捕杀鲨鱼,去拯救鲨鱼。
【1】句意:这道有名又昂贵的菜在华南地区特别受欢迎。
根据句意可知副词修饰形容词,需用especial的副词形式。故填especially。
【2】句意:当人们捕捉鲨鱼,他们会切断鱼鳍,然后把鲨鱼扔回海里。
根据文中“sharks”和“their…”可知形容词性物主代词后面接名词,此处需用名词复数。故填fins。
【3】句意:没有鳍,鲨鱼不能再游得更远,慢慢死去。
根据句意及常识可知鲨鱼没有鱼鳍,就不能在海洋继续游泳,故填can的否定形式。故填can’t/cannot。
【4】句意:鲨鱼是海洋生态系统中食物链的顶端。
根据句意以及“in the…ecosystem”可知需填入名词所有格形式。故填ocean’s。
【5】句意:如果他们的数量下降的太低,就会给所有的海洋生物带来危险。
根据句意可知是if引导的条件状语从句,主句是一般将来时,从句用一般现在时,因主语为复数。故填drop。
【6】句意:许多人相信鲨鱼永远不会受到威胁,因为他们是食物链中最强壮的。
根据句意以及常识可知鲨鱼是食物链中最强大的。所以用最高级表达。故填strongest。
【7】句意:但是实际上在这个行业,每年大约有七千万鲨鱼被捕获和交易。
根据“around 70million sharks are caught”可知句式为被动语态,且连词and,前后语态一致。因省略are,故填traded。
【8】句意:他们甚至要求政府制定法律来阻止鲨鱼鳍的售卖。
根据ask sb. to do sth.可知所给空应填动词不定式。故填to develop。
【9】句意:到目前为止,还没有科学研究表明鱼翅有益健康,那为什么要吃鱼翅呢?
根据所给单词提示可知eat 后面接人称代词,要用人称代词宾格。故填them。
【10】句意:帮助拯救鲨鱼吧!
根据句意可知“… save sharks!”是动词原形式的祈使句。所以填help。因在句首,首字母需大写。故填Help。
