2.AThe undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secrets there. Scuba diving is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonder-ful undersea world.You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are as large as a school bus. Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green.When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can-t dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It-s cold, and it,s dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side. Besides the cold and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger-other animals.Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants. However, some am-mals eat meat. This means these sea animals have two big jobs. They need to find animals as food, and they have to try not to become other animals' meal.( )21. Why do people want to dive in the sea? Because ________ .A.they want to catch fishB. they want to find the secrets of the undersea worldC. the sea is deepD, there are all kinds of plants in the sea

    Craig Rogers was sitting on his surfboard, scanning(审视)the distance for his next wave, when his board suddenly stopped moving._________(46)"I could have touched its eye with my elbow(肘部),"says Craig. The shark had surfaced so quietly that he hadn't heard a thing.
    In his horror and confusion,he waved his arms and accidentally cut two of his fingers on the shark's teeth.He then slid off the opposite side of his surfboard into the water. Then,with Craig in the water and blood flowing from his fingers,the five-meter-long shark simply swam away,_______(47)
    Although sharks are often categorized as killers that hunt and eat as many humans as they can, this is actually inaccurate.Sharks very rarely kill humans.A person has a greater chance of being struck by lightning or drowning(淹死)in a bath than of being killed by a shark. Only 74 people have been reported killed by great whites in the last century.But great white sharks can reach six meters in length and weigh 2,200 kilograms or more.With frightening jaws that can hold up to
    3,000 teeth arranged in several rows,they could very easily kill and eat a helpless human in the water.________(48)Shark researchers are trying to comprehend the reasons that allow people to escape without being eaten.
    The most common explanation is that great whites don't see well._________(49)There is reason to doubt this,however. Recent information shows that great whites can actually see very well. Also,when attacking seals,great whites shoot up to the surface and bite with great force.When approaching humans,however,_________(50)They soon discover that humans are not a high一fat meal."They spit us out because we're too bony,"says Aidan Martin,director of Reef Quest Center for Shark Research.
    Shark researchers like Martin hypothesize that great whites are actually curious animals that like to investigate things.It's possible that they use their bite not only to kill and eat,but also to gather information.Although such an experience is unlucky for people like Craig Rogers,when sharks bite surfboards or other objects or people,they are likely just trying to learn what they are.

    _________(50)
    A:disappearing into the water below.
    B:Why is it,then,that most people survive attacks by great whites?
    C:they most often move in slowly and bite less hard.
    D:There is reason to doubt that great whites see well enough to attack humans.
    E:It has been thought that they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which make up a large part of their diet.
    F:He looked down and was terrified to see a great white shark biting the front of his board.

    答案:C
    解析:
    “F.He looked down and was terrified to see a great white shark biting the front of his board.”前一句说:······就在这时冲浪板不动了。F在句意上是接着这一句的。意为“他低头向水下看,惊悚的一幕出现了:一条大白鲨正在撕咬冲浪板的前端。
    前面说the five-meter-long shark simply swam away(这条五米长的鲨鱼却径直游开),因此"A.disappearing into the water below”符合逻辑。
    " B.Why is it, then , that most people survive attacks by great whites ?"起承上启下的作用。前一句讲到它们可以轻易杀死并吃掉无助的落水者。该句的意思是:“但为什么大多数人受到大白鲨攻击之后都能鲨口逃生呢?”接着说,鲨鱼研究者们正在努力寻找使得人类鲨口脱险的原因。
    "E.It has been thught that they mistake people for the seals or sea lions which rnake up a large part of their diet.’前沂句讲封最常提的解释是说大白鲨的视力不好。E 项是人们认为大白鲨会把人类错当成是其主要食物来源的海豹飞或海狮。前一句是原因,后一句是结果。
    “C.they most often move in slowly and bite less hard.”结合空格句的前一句,意思是:“当大白鲨在攻击海豹时,他们会迅速窜上海面,用力撕咬。但当大白鲨在攻击人类时,它们在大多数情况下会慢慢浮上海面,撕咬的力度也轻得多。”

Firstly, and most obviously, new born children arecompletely helpless. Apart from a powerful capacity to pay attention to   3.______their helplessness by using sound, there is nothing the new bornchild can do to ensure his own survival. Without care from someother human being or beings, be it mother, grandmother, or humangroup, a child is very unlikely to survive. This helplessness of humaninfants is in marked contrast with the capacity of many newborn animals to get on their feet within minutes of birth and run      4.______with the herd within a few hours.  Although young animals are certainly in risk, sometimes for       5.______weeks or even months after birth, compared with the human infantthey very quickly develop the capacity to fend for them.          6.______It is during this very long period in which the human infant istotally dependent on the others that it reveals the second feature     7.______which it shares with all other undamaged human infants,a capacity to learn language.

    正确答案:
    1.在any和infant中间加other。 在比较两者的异同时,要从比较对象中排除该物或该人。

    5.in risk改为in danger或at risk。 这里表达“在危险中,受到威胁”的意思,没有in risk这种搭配。
    6.them改为themselves。 这里需要的宾语和主语they都是指代上文的young animals,故要用反身代词。
    7.去掉the。 others指“其他人(物)中的一部分”,the others则指“其他所有的人(物)”。

Apart from a powerfulcapacity to pay attention to their helplessness by using sound, there is nothing   3._______the new born child can do to ensure his own survival. Without care from someother human being or beings, be it mother, grandmother, or human group, achild is very unlikely to survive.

    正确答案:
    1.在any和infant中间加other 在比较两者的异同时,要从比较对象中排除该物或该人。
    2.have改为has 此处主语为neither,故谓语动词要用单数形式。
    3.pay改为draw/call/attract/elicit
    pay attention to注意。此处要表达“吸引注意”的意思。
    4.on改为to
    get to one’s feet起身,站起来。
    5.in risk改为in danger或at risk 这里表达“在危险中,受到威胁”的意思,没有in risk这种搭配。
    6.them改为themselves 这里需要的宾语和主语they都是指代上文的young animals,故要用反身代词。
    7.去掉the
    others指“其他人(物)中的一部分”,the others则指“其他所有的人(物)”。
    8.be改为is 这里suggest意为“提出,暗示”,不作“建议”讲,因此不用虚拟语气。
    9.genetic改为genetically
    genetically用来修饰programmed,“副词+过去分词”相当于一个形容词。
    10.在such和way中加入a 名词way为可数名词单数,前面要用不定冠词。
