    The Arctic Ice is Thawing

    Father Christmas may have to move his"workshop"from the North Pole because global warming is
    thawing the ice beneath his feet and his reindeers'feet as well.His"workshop"is in dire straits.The"plat-
    form"for the"workshop"is melting,said Stefan Norris of the World Wildlife Fund environmental group's
    Arctic Program.
    An eight-nation report by 250 scientists published recently predicted the Arctic Ocean could be ice-free
    in summer by 2100 because of a build-up of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere,mainly from burning fossil
    fuels in cars or factories.The North Pole is getting more and more uninhabitable to Father Christmas.
    __________(46)Young people learn that Father Christmas'"workshop"produces millions of gifts delivered
    by him on a flying,reindeer-drawn sleigh.Hollywood movies like"The Polar Express"tried to make viewers
    believe that Father Christmas lives at the North Pole._______(47)
    The"Fortress of Solitude"is near the North Pole that could be under threat in a warmer world. Alan Boldt,
    spokesman of the Danish Ministry of Science,suggested ways to rescue Father Christmas._________(48)
    Another alternative,he argued,woald be building some electrical facilities to ensure the ice stays on the North
    Pole for him."This should be a subject for the United Nations,"he said."Danmark could build windmills to pro-
    vide Father Christmas with power."Denmark says Father Christmas'real home is Greenland,which will help,
    Denmark thinks,to strengthen its position in claiming the sovereignty over the Pole.__________(49)
    "Doesn't he already speak Danish?"Boldt said frostily when asked if Father Christmas would be forced
    to learn Danish if Denmark won international recognition of its claim to the Pole.Last month's Arctic report
    said the region is warming twice as fast as the rest of the globe,partly because dark ground or water,once un-
    covered,soaks up more heat than ice or snow.Finland has been most favored by Father Christmas and it has
    about 500,000 tourists a year to visit its Christmas center in Rovaniemi in Lapland._________(50)

    _________(49)
    A:However,Nordic nations all reject it by claiming that their countries are his home.
    B:Therefore the North Pole is the most attractive place in the world.
    C:If Denmark's claim were accepted internationally,it would have the legal right to search for oil and gas at the North Pole.
    D:One of them would be building a giant floating ice rink for the workshop if the Pole thaws.
    E:Maybe Father Christmas has already moved to Rovaniemi.
    F:He may have to move from the North Pole within our children's lifetimes.

    答案：C
    解析：
    空46前面两个句子讲的是，受全球气候变暖的影响，北极的冰正在融化，估计到2100 年夏天北极将成为无冰的世界。北极越来越不适合圣诞老人居住了。在这种情况下，圣诞老 人该怎么办呢？选项F说，" He may have to move from the North Pole within our children ' s life- times"，其意思与上文配合得天衣无缝，北极住不下去了，只能移居他处。因此F是正确答案。
    空47前面一句说，好莱坞电影如《极地快车》想让观众相信圣诞老人住在北极。选项 A说，" However , Nordic nations all reject it by claiming that their countries are his home（北欧国家 不同意这种说法，都声称自己的国家才是圣诞老人的故乡）”。意思正好和上文配得上。
    空48前面一句说，丹麦科学部发言人提出拯救圣诞老人的几个办法。空48的内容应 该涉及具体的拯救办法。选项D符合这个要求。D说其中一个办法是：如果北极的冰融化，就 人工造个浮冰场地，上面可以承载圣诞老人的工场。从上下文意思的连接上，从one of them （指代前一句的ways）的用词上，都可以确定D是正确答案。
    选项C的句子一开始就用“Denmark's claim”重复空49前面一句中的“claiming"，从词 汇重复上，我们可以判断，填人空49的句子应该是选项C的句子。我们再从意思上分析一下， 丹麦认为，说圣诞老人的故乡是格陵兰岛有助于加强丹麦声称的自己拥有北极的主权的地位。 选项C说，如果丹麦的这一要求得到国际社会认可的话，它就拥有勘测北极的石油和天然气的 合法权利。上下文意思是连贯的，所以C是正确答案。
    空50前面一句说：" Finland has been most favored by Father Christmas and it has about 500 ,000 tourists a year to visit its Christmas center in Rovaniemi in Lapland.”当看到选项E中重 复出现Rovaniemi，就可猜测空50的位置上可能填选项E的句子。再看意思，前一句说，圣诞 老人如此眷顾芬兰，每年约有50万游客来参观罗瓦涅米的圣诞中心。E的句子说“MaybeFather Christmas has already moved to Rovaniemi（说不定圣诞老人已经移居罗瓦涅米了）"，是 对前一句“眷顾”的颇为风趣的总结。选项E是本题的答案。

  • 第5题：

    The thunder scared the little girl who is sleeping in the room.

    A:frightened
    B:killed
    C:endangered
    D:rescued

    答案：A
    解析：
    本句话的意思是：雷电使在屋子睡觉的小女孩感到害怕。frighten：使害怕，例如：The little boy was frightened by the loud thunderstorm．巨大的打雷声使小男孩感到非常害怕。kill：杀害，例如：Six people were killed during the explosion.爆炸使6人丧生。endanger: 使……处于危险，例如：It was foolish to endanger your life in that way．用这种方式危及你的生命是愚蠢的。rescue：救援，例如：Finally , they were rescued by the police．他们最后得到警察的救援。

  • 第11题：

    I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be _21_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 22 ?” Just when I started to 23 that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women 24 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 25 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t 26 . Somebody had thought 27 of me to bring me a gift.

    Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 28 Christmas there special and memorable, I 29 remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 30 for as many children as I could possibly reach.

    So I 31 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school supplies, 32 with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 33 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I 34 them that they couldn’t open their presents 35 every child had come forward. Finally the 36 they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 37 up the room. The 38 in the room was obvious, and 39 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew 40 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.

Finland has been most favored by Father Christmas and it has about 500,000 tourists a year to visit its Christmas center in Rovaniemi in Lapland._______(50)

    __________（46）
    A:However,Nordic nations all reject it by claiming that their countries are his home.
    B:Therefore the North Pole is the most attractive place in the world.
    C:If Denmark's claim were accepted internationally,it would have the legal right to search for oil and gas at the North Pole.
    D:One of them would be building a giant floating ice rink for the workshop if the Pole thaws.
    E:Maybe Father Christmas has already moved to Rovaniemi.
    F:He may have to move from the North Pole within one children's lifetimes.

    答案：F
    解析：
    该空前面两个句子讲的是，受全球气候变暖的影响，北极的冰正在融化，估计到2100年夏天北冰洋将成为无冰的世界。北极越来越不适合圣诞老人居住了。于是，读者或许会猜想，在这种情况下，圣诞老人该怎么办呢？选项F说“He may have to move from the North Pole.within our children's lifetimes"，其意思与上文意思相符，北极住不下去了，只能移居他处，因此选项F是正确答案。
    该空前面一句说，好莱坞电影《极地快车》想让观众相信圣诞老人的故乡在北极。下面该填什么呢？选项A说“However, Nordic nations all reject it by claiming that their countries are his home"，北欧国家不同意这种说法，都声称自己的国家才是圣诞老人的故乡。用however与前一句接起来，句意顺畅，所以选项A是正确答案。
    由第三段前两句可知该空的内容应该涉及具体的拯救办法。选项D符合这个要求。选项D说其中一个办法是：如果北极的冰融化，就造一个巨大的浮冰场地，上面可以承载圣诞老人的工场。从句意连接以及one of them（指代前一句的ways）的用词上，都可以确定选项D是正确答案。
    选项C的句子一开始就用“Denmark's claim”重复此空前面一句的“claiming( to the sovereignty over the Pole)"，从词汇重复上可以判断，填入该空的句子应该是选项C的句子。再从句意分析：丹麦认为，说圣诞老人的真正故乡是格陵兰有助于加强丹麦声称自己拥有北极的主权的地位。选项C说，如果丹麦的这一要求得到国际社会认可的话，它就拥有合法的权利去勘测北极的石油和天然气。上下文意思连贯，所以选项C是正确答案。
    该空前面一句说，"Finland has been most favored by Father Christmas and it has about 500,000 tourists a year to visit its Christmas center in Rovaniemi in Lapland"。当看到选项E中重复出现Rovaniemi，就知道该空应该是选项E的句子。圣诞老人如此眷顾Rovaniemi，每年约有50万游客来参观Rovaniemi的圣诞中心。选项E的句子说“Maybe Father Christmas has already moved to Rovaniemi（说不定圣诞老人已经移居罗瓦涅米了）"，是对前一句“眷顾” 的颇有风趣的总结，也是对与第一个空“He may have to move from the North Pole within our children's lifetimes.”的前后照应。因此选项E是本题的正确答案。
