ting so many important types of wildlife”在科學家們了解如何最好地保護馬尾藻海以及如何救助這么多重要的野生動物之前,還需要做進一步的研究。可知從第4段“need to be done”一詞可以推斷,作者認為馬尾藻生態(tài)系統(tǒng)值得我們關注,需要更多的研究。故選A。 (3)考查主旨大意。根據第一段中的“Although the entire ocean makes up an ecosystem, many smaller habitats are found within, including an openwater habitat off the coast of the Northern Atlantic Ocean known as the Sargasso Sea.”雖然整個海洋構成了一個生態(tài)系統(tǒng),但在其中發(fā)現(xiàn)了許多較小的棲息地,包括北大西洋沿岸的一個被稱為馬尾藻海的開放水域棲息地。以及文章內容為關于馬尾藻海的一些研究說明,可知文本主要是關于作為一個完整的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的馬尾藻海。故選D。 【點評】本題考點涉及詞義猜測,句義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇環(huán)保類閱讀,考生需要根據上下文的邏輯關系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀理解 Hi, I39。m Neil Harbisso. I e from a place where the sky is always grey, where flowers are always grey, and where television is still in black and white. I actually e from a world where color doesn39。t exist. I was born with achromatopsia. I was born pletely colorblind. So I39。ve never seen color, and don39。t know what it looks like. But since the age of 21, I can hear color thanks to a magic electronic eye called eyeborg: a color sensor between my eyes connected to a chip(芯片) installed at the back of my head that transforms color frequencies into sound frequencies that I hear through my bone. I39。ve had the electronic eye permanently attached to my head and I39。ve been listening to colors nonstop since 2004. So I find it pletely normal now to hear colors all the time. Since I started to hear color, my life has changed significantly. Art galleries have bee concert halls. I can hear a Picasso. And supermarkets have bee like night clubs. I love how they sound. My sense of beauty has changed. Someone might look very beautiful but sound terrible, and someone might sound very harmonious but look awful. So I find it really exciting to create sound portraits(畫像) of people. Instead of drawing the shape of someone39。s face I write down the different notes I hear when I look at them, and then I send them an mp3 of their face. Each face sounds different. I can even give face concerts now, concerts where I play the audience39。s faces. The good thing about doing this is that if the concert doesn39。t sound good, it39。s their fault. I also found out that things I thought were colorless are not colorless at all. Cities are not grey. Lisbon is yellow turquoise(寶石綠)。 London is very golden red…and humans are not black and white. Human skins range from light shades of orange to very dark shades of orange. We are all orange. If we extend our senses, we will consequently extend our knowledge.(1)We can infer from the article that people with achromatopsia ____________. A.suffer from blindnessB.have a good sense of colorsC.are not able to see colorsD.like to go to concert halls and supermarkets(2)What does the author mean by saying Art galleries have bee concert halls? A.Art galleries have been changed into various sounds.B.Works at the art galleries are created by great musicians.C.Art galleries are filled with noisy people.D.The author now likes art galleries as much as concert halls.(3)Which of the following statements is NOT correct? A.Neil developed a rare disease in his childhood.B.The eyeborg produces sounds based on shades of colors.C.Neil will use the eyeborg for the rest of his life.D.In Neil39。s mind, all people are orange.(4)What is the best title for the passage? A.Eyeborg–a real life saver.B.I listen to color.C.Sense the world.D.Art galleries turned into concert halls.【答案】 (1)C(2)A(3)A(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文,從小患有色盲的作者,利用顏色傳感器來聽自己看不見的顏色,從而形成了作者與眾不同的美感。作者認為如果我們擴展我們的感官,我們將因此擴展我們的知識。 (1)考查推理判斷。根據第二段中的“I actually e from a world where color doesn39。t exist. I was born with achromatopsia. I was born pletely colorblind.”我來自一個沒有顏色的世界。我生來患有色盲。我生來就是色盲。可推斷,患有色盲的人是看不見顏色的。故選C。 (2)考查句義猜測。根據第四段中的“Since I started to hear color, my life has changed significantly.”自從我開始聽到顏色,我的生活發(fā)生了巨大的變化;以及空后“I can hear a Picasso.”我能聽見畢加索的聲音??芍髡哒f藝術畫廊變成了音樂廳意思是對作者來說,藝術畫廊已經變成了各種各樣的聲音。故選A。 (3)考查細節(jié)理解。根據第二段中的“I actually e from a world where color doesn39。t exist. I was born with achromatopsia. I was born pletely colorblind.”我來自一個沒有顏色的世界。我生來患有色盲。我生來就是色盲??芍狝選項尼爾小時候得了一種罕見的疾病。錯誤。故選A。 (4)考查主旨大意。根據第三段中的“I39。ve had the electronic eye permanently attached to my head and I39。ve been listening to colors nonstop since 2004. So I find it pletely normal now to hear colors all the time.”我把電子眼固定在頭上,從2004年開始我就不停地聽彩色音樂。所以我發(fā)現(xiàn)現(xiàn)在一直聽到顏色是完全正常的。以及文章主要內容為生來是色盲的作者講述自己聽顏色的事情,故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解,詞義猜測,推理判斷和主旨大意四個題型的考查,是一篇故事類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上,進一步根據上下文的邏輯關系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。9.閱讀理解 A few hours after my first mission, returning to Earth on the space shuttle Endeavour, I pleted all of my medical tests after flight, met with NASA officials, and reunited with my family. Finally, I was alone in my office room in astronaut crew quarters at the Kennedy Space Center, exhausted and ready for bed. And I did what anyone does when they return to their hotel room on a business trip: I turned on the TV. The television news started up: Such and such had happened, people were shocked, blah blah blah. Sports scores. Silly mercials. It didn39。t take more than a minute before I had to turn it off. It felt like my body was rejecting all this input, just as it would reject an organ donation that had the wrong blood type. All of this noise was just pletely foreign to who I was—or, more appropriately, who I had bee. A few hours before, I had been orbiting Earth, seeing our planet from space, flying the most amazing machine ever built by human hands, working with a team that was the absolute success of human. And now here in my room watching what was being sold as news, and with my newfound perspective, I just could not stomach it. My worldview was changed forever in a profound (
