articles landed in the ocean, instead of on land, means larger pieces may have survived and can be studied.”可知,科學家更喜歡在海洋中尋找流星是因為他們可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)更大的巖石顆粒。故選A。 (2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“The group says its aim at present is to examine areas of the ocean that have never been explored before.”可知,the Ocean Exploration Trust的船員目前的目標是研究海洋中未被探索的地方??茖W家更喜歡在海洋中尋找流星是因為他們可能會發(fā)現(xiàn)更大的巖石顆粒。這些物體是在美國太平洋沿岸發(fā)現(xiàn)的。D.Stress the importance of the event.B.Offer clues for the search.D.They may find bigger rock particles.C.They can find meteors more easily.D.Business value of meteors.C.To examine creatures of the explored ocean.(2)What mainly caused the start of the search in the sea? A.To study unexplored places of the ocean.B. The objects recovered from the bottom of the sea likely came from the recent explosion for two main reasons. First, meteorite particles are basically made of glassy materials that do not tend to last long in seawater. Secondly, they came from what looked like a small hole on the seafloor. Some evidence shows that they came from something that fell.(1)What is the current goal of the crew of the Ocean Exploration Trust? A. The search was launched after US government weather stations observed a large meteorite exploding some months ago. The explosion lit up the sky and sent the rock particles to the earth. The meteorite fall was the largest recorded over the United States in at least 20years. The team includes scientists from NASA, the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary and the University of Washington. The scientists examined what they believe were two small meteorite fragments. Further testing is needed before they can confirm that the material came from the explosion. Scientists have found what they believe are pieces of a meteor(流星)that fell to the earth last year. The objects were discovered off the coast of the United States in the Pacific Ocean. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上,進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。 (4)考查主旨大意。他說,表演不僅僅是 假裝 成某個人,它還包括文本和語言的體現(xiàn)。根據(jù)最后一段中的“However, Philip Davis, a professor at the University of Liverpool, was unimpressed by the research, saying acting is about far more than ‘pretending’由此可知Brown博士的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),演員在表演時大腦活動是不同的,故選B。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段中的“The results revealed that the brain activity differed depending on the situation being tested. The team found that when the actors were in character, they use some thirdperson knowledge or inferences about their character.”結(jié)果顯示,大腦活動的不同取決于所測試的情境。根據(jù)第五段中的“Once inside the MRI scanner, the actors were asked to answer a number of questions, such as: would they go to the party?”一旦進入核磁共振掃描儀,演員們被要求回答一系列問題,比如:他們會去參加派對嗎?由此推斷出Brown博士的團隊是通過掃描一些演員的大腦活動進行他們的研究的,故選A?,F(xiàn)在,研究人員表示,演員的大腦活動模式不同,取決于他們是否扮演角色。A research on the brain activity of actors.D.A debate of how the brain functions.B.D.C.B. brain activity is more active when they are in character.(3)How did Philip Davis react to the research? A.Acting is far more than pretending to be the character.D.Actors39。s research? A.By interviewing some theatre teachers.D.By scanning the brain activity of some actors.B. However, Philip Davis, a professor at the University of Liverpool, was unimpressed by the research, saying acting is about far more than pretending to be someone — it involves embodying (體現(xiàn)) the text and language.(1)How did Dr Brown39。 The results revealed that the brain activity differed depending on the situation being tested. The team found that when the actors were in character, they use some thirdperson knowledge or inferences about their character. Once inside the MRI scanner, the actors were asked to answer a number of questions, such as: would they go to the party? And would they tell their parents that they had fallen in love? almost like the character is possessing you. Now, researchers have said actors show different patterns of brain activity depending on whether they are in character or not. Acting is the least mysterious of all crafts, Marion Brando once said. But for scientists, working out what is going on in an actor39。 【點評】本題考點涉及推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查,是一篇科普類閱讀,要求考生根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進行分析,推理,概括和歸納,從而選出正確答案。所以本文目的是普及有關(guān)座頭鯨的知識,并對它們加以保護。 (3)考查主旨大意。冬季的熱帶繁殖區(qū),是溫暖的地方。根據(jù)第五個小黑點后面的The big family migrate between winter tropical breeding areas (North West Shelf, Great Barrier Reef, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiii, Tonga) and summer Antarctic feeding areas. 座頭鯨這個大家族在冬季的熱帶繁殖區(qū)(西北大陸架、大堡礁、新喀里多尼亞、瓦努阿圖、斐濟、湯加)和夏季南極喂養(yǎng)區(qū)之間遷徙。分析選項可知C項符合題意,故選C。 often extensive white on flippers and underside of body and flukes。 (1)考查推理判斷 。popularize the basic knowledge of humpbacks and call for protectionD.explain why humpbacks are still hunted in some parts of the worldB.They are mostly hunted in New Zealand waters.(3)This article is mainly intended tot survive in extreme cold.C.They need warmer waters to breed.B.s description of humpback whales39。The different colors and patterns of the body help to be recognized.D.Their long flippers vary in length, size and shape like dorsal fin.B. back when submerging, but at a distance may be confused with other species that raise their flukes when diving, such as sperm, right and blue whales. Similar species: Easily identifiable due to a 39。s, minke and blue whales. The big family migrate between winter tropical breeding areas (North West Shelf, Great Barrier Reef, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiii, Tonga) and summer Antarctic feeding areas. Once mon in New Zealand waters, humpbacks are now rarely seen and may migrate further offshore. Males pete for mates either by physical fight or by song. Females give birth to their young every two to three years。 270400 olive baleen plates such patterns enable individual recognition Body colour is dark brown to black。 sawtoothed traili
