题目内容

  The entire family of rays is well armed. The eagle ray's tail has teeth sharp enough to cut off a man's arm. The gray ray can snap its seven-foot tail like a whip. The torpedo ray discharges an electrical current strong enough to knock a man down.

  The stingray has a barb or spine in its tail, with teeth along the edge. At the base of the teeth is a poison gland. When the flexible tail swings upward, the spine can cause a painful wound almost as dangerous as a poisonous snakebite.

  A stingray has been known to lash out so savagely with its tail that the spine sank into an oar two feet above the water. Another ray pierced a boat. One fisherman attacked by a ten-foot ray was struck with such force that the barb went right through his leg, bone and all.

1.Details in the selection prove that rays are________.

A.intelligent   B.well nourished C.well armed D. huge

2.The main protection of the torpedo ray is its______.

A.light weight B. speed of movement C. ten-foot tail  D. electric current

8.The author bases his story on_____.

A. guesses B. examples C. figures D.None of the above

答案:C;D;C;B;A;C;A;B
解析:

  当你阅读过本语篇将近2/3之后,你可能会问:rays是什么?明明是个熟词,但是却不知该词在此处的词义。只有读到了最后一段: A stingray has been known to lash out so savagely with its tail that the spine sank into an oar two feet above the water. Another ray pierced a boat. One fisherman attacked by a ten-foot ray was struck with such force that the barb went right through his leg, bone and all.才有可能明白。这也是一种奇特的写作手法,在生词较多的情况下,难度尤其大。

  As I was driving out of the store parking lot, they crossed in front of me.My first reaction was filled with   1   at being delayed for a whole ten seconds.But I quickly became   2   when I realized that it was an elderly   3  .

  The man leaned on his   4   who walked in front of him.He not only used her for   5   but it was obvious that he was blind.The two of them   6   as one-each needing the other to   7   in this fast-changing world.

  That picture of those two elderly people walking with dignity(尊严)and strength   12   me the entire week.My   13   wasn’t so bad after all.I had my health and a good job.I had a wonderful,   14  wife.I started to think-not only was I   15   to have these all, but so was that wonderful old couple, who,   16   the trials and sufferings of a long life,still had the love and support of each other to   17   them through this world.

  There are so many people out there just like that couple.My wife and I sometimes   18   ourselves in our old age, walking arm in arm into the sunset.That image always gives us a   19   feeling.Just remember, none of us would be here if it wasn’t for our elders.We all should spend a little extra time and patience,   20   helping our elder friends.
