Drake hopes to conduct similar experiments with trees mon in North America.（1）How does one species of eucalyptus tree cope with extreme heat waves? A. The researchers think the Parramatta red gums were able to effectively sweat — even without photosynthesis — because they are particularly good at tapping into water deep in the soil. But if a heat wave and a severe drought (干旱) were to hit at the same time and the groundwater was exhausted, the trees may not be so lucky, Drake says. Photosynthesis ground to a near halt in the trees facing the artificial heat wave. But to the researchers39。 conditions in their natural environment, little is known about how individual species handle this situation. Recent summer temperatures in parts of Australia were high enough to melt asphalt. As global warming speeds up the heat and climatic events increase, many plants may be unable to cope. But at least one species of eucalyptus tree can resist extreme heat by continuing to “sweat” when other essential processes stop, a new study finds.【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇新聞報(bào)道，考生在準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息的同時(shí)，需要根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。（4）考查推理判斷。（3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“more than four kilometers from the cave plex39。根據(jù)第一段中的“In addition to treating the boys for potential body fluid loss, inadequate nutrition and lack of oxygen, their doctors also plan to closely monitor them for symptoms of diseases that may have been infected by animals living in the cave.”除了治療男孩潛在的體液流失，營養(yǎng)不足和缺乏氧氣，他們的醫(yī)生還計(jì)劃密切監(jiān)測他們可能被洞穴里的動物感染的疾病癥狀，D項(xiàng)是足夠的氧氣，可知選D。A Thai website about sports.【答案】（1）D（2）A（3）C（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新聞報(bào)道，講述了突然爆發(fā)的洪水把一支泰國少年足球隊(duì)困在山洞達(dá)兩周多，之后全部獲救，正在北部城市清雷的一家醫(yī)院接受良好的治療。A newspaper article.C.An academic essay about bats.D.Lipkin said the victims might be infected when their body were exposed to bacterial water during the rescue.B.Jonathan Epstein thought it possible for the team members to be attacked by bats in the fullyflooded cave.D.C.B. A.D.Unbalanced nutritionC. A. Bats in Thailand have been linked with a wide range of viruses that are similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)—Lipkin says. But it seems more likely the boys would have been exposed to infectioncausing bacteria when they swam through the dirty water with cuts and scrapes. If you are trying to prioritize issues with respect to health care for these kids, number one would be psychological damage and second will be bacterial infections from the cuts and scrapes they may have encountered. Lipkin says.（1）According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the potential symptom of the rescued team members? s hard to imagine bats got that deep into the cave because of all those narrow passageways, but it is possible, says Ian Lipkin, an animal expert and professor at the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University. It39。 Yet based on the location where the boys were trapped—more than four kilometers from the cave plex39。 Youth football team members rescued more than two weeks after sudden flooding trapped them in a cave in Thailand are now being well looked after at a hospital in the northern city of Chiang Rai. In addition to treating the boys for potential body fluid loss, inadequate nutrition and lack of oxygen, their doctors also plan to closely monitor them for symptoms of diseases that may have been infected by animals living in the cave.6．閱讀下列短文，從短文后每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。故選D。（4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The year of 2005 saw big increases in students from South Korea, Mexico and Taiwan of China. India sends the most students and China is .”可知，在2005年美國多數(shù)的外國學(xué)生都來自印度。故選D。根據(jù)第三段中的“What Americans are doing is waking up and discovering there39。根據(jù)第二段中的“But the number of American students studying in Britain and Australia descended a little, even as the number of American students abroad rose by 8%.”這句話的后半句的意思是“盡管美國學(xué)生在國外的人數(shù)增長了8%”，由此推知“但是在英國和澳大利亞學(xué)習(xí)的美國學(xué)生人數(shù)下降了一點(diǎn)，”故選B。Asian students account for a large part of foreign students in America.【答案】（1）B（2）D（3）B（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了不同國家的人國外留學(xué)的情況。International enrollment in American higher education changed a lot.B.Britain.（4）What can we infer from the passage? A.C.India.They prefer to explore a different world from their own.（3）Where were most foreign students in America from in 2005? A.They are afraid that terrorist attacks will happen again.B.Increased.（2）Why do more American students study in Asia? A.C.Declined. Other figures showed the flow of students in the opposite direction, from foreign countries into American universities. The institute found that international enrollment (入學(xué)) in American higher education remained steady at about 565,000. The figures are of keen interest to universities, which depend on foreign students for teaching and research help, and to policymakers, who consider it important, as future foreign leaders may be familiar with the United States. The year of 2005 saw big increases in students from South Korea, Mexico and Taiwan of China. India sends the most students and China is . Other countries that show large percentage increases in the number of students sent to the US include Nepal and Vietnam, while Japan, Turkey and Malays
