Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator

Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a traditional Polynesian boat
across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expe-
dition. Its purpose was to find out if seafarers(海员)in the distant past could have found their way from one
island to the other without navigational instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.
At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and
the sea.
He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the
wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and
his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him
pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different
places.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in
the sand to represent a star.
The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea
and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cul-
tures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he
allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to rememnber everything as he
had done.

Man was familiar with the sea around Tahiti.
A:Right
B:Wrong

    根据句意可知,我们每年从海里捕获数百万千克的鱼,以给几百万人提供食物。feed意思是“供……作为食物”,符合句意。attract吸引;save保护,挽救;affect影响。
    根据句意可知,我们甚至使用鱼骨头作为肥料。use意思是“使用”,符合句意。buy 买;treat对待;have拥有。
    根据句意可知,制盐的一种办法就是将海水放在浅底的水池里直至水分蒸发。place意思是“放置”,符合句意。flow流动;pour倾倒;throw投掷。
    根据句意可知,除了盐之外,水蒸发以后还有别的矿物质留下来。after意思是“在……之后”,符合句意。before在……之前;until直到;for为了。
    give up意思是“放弃”,符合句意。give in屈服,投降;give away赠送,捐赠;give over(口语)别再……了,到此为止吧,住手。
    根据句意可知,海洋赐予我们的礼物还有珍珠、海绵和海草。other意思是“其他的”,符合句意。such这样的,如此的;all所有的;another另一个。
    根据句意可知,珍珠能做成珠宝。become意思是“变成,成为”,符合句意。change改变;make制作;turn转变。该句和后面两句在结构上一致,因此也用become。
    根据句意可知,海草可加工成许多种食品,甚至糖果、冰淇淋和药品。food意思是“食品”,符合句意。material材料;item商品;product产品。
    根据句意可知,淡水是海洋赐予我们的另一种礼物。gift意思是“礼物”,符合句意。 source资源;thing事情;matter问题。
    根据句意可知,海水不能饮用,其中有些物质会致病。cause意思是“引起”,符合句意。 cure治愈;experience经历;catch抓住。
    根据句意可知,去掉海水中的盐分后,海水就变成了淡水。remove意思是“去除”,符合句意。do做;dry使变干;make制作。
    根据句意可知,将来,我们会越来越依赖于由海水转化来的淡水。depend on,固定搭配,意思是“依赖”,符合句意。
    根据句意可知,海洋给予我们食物、化肥、矿物、水资源以及其他的礼物。give意思是 “给予”,符合句意。get得到;teach教;obtain获得。
    此处缺少一个连词,when意思是“当……的时候”,符合句意。if如果;although尽管; because因为。
    根据句意可知,把垃圾往大海里倾倒就是在把海洋生物杀绝灭尽。cast意思是“扔、抛”,符合句意。reduce减少;collect搜集;remove移动,移除。

    What We Take From and Give to the Sea
    As long as we have been on earth,we have used the sea around us.We take things from the ocean,and we give to it.
    We take fishes from the ocean-millions of kilograms of fish,every year,to feed millions of people.______(46)We take minerals from the ocean.One way to get salt is to place seawater in a shallow basin and leave it until it evaporates.______(47) Much gold and silver drift dissolved in the waters of the sea,too.But the sea does not give them up by simple evaporation.
    Other gifts from the sea are pearls,sponges and seaweed.Pearls become jewelry.______(48)
    Seaweed becomes food of many kinds-even candy,and ice cream-as well as medicine.Believe it or not,fresh water is another gift from the sea.We cannot drink ocean water.______(49)
    But ocean water becomes fresh water when the salts are removed.In the future,we will find ourselves depending more and more on fresh water from the sea.
    The sea gives us food,fertilizer,minerals,water,and other gifts .What do we give the sea?
    Garbage.______(50)Huge as it is,the ocean cannot hold all the water we pour into it. Dumping garbage into the ocean is killing off sea life.Yet as the world population grows,we may need the sea and its gifts more than ever.
    We are finally learning that if we destroy our sea,we might also destroy ourselves.Hopeful-ly,it is not too late.

    ______(48)
    A: Natural sponges become cleaning aids.
    B: We pollute the ocean when we use it as a garbage dump.
    C: The area of the sea is becoming smaller and smaller.
    D: Along with salt,other minerals are left after evaporation.
    E: We even use their bones for fertilizer.
    F: Some of its contents may cause illness.

    答案:A
    解析:
    前面一句讲到:我们从大海里捕捞大量的鱼供人们食用,接着应讲“甚至连鱼的骨头也被用来做化肥”。even清楚地提示了这两句话的关系。


    前面一句讲到:我们可以通过水的蒸发从海水中得到盐。通过常识可知,除了盐之外,水蒸发以后还会有别的矿物质留下来。


    前面的内容讲到:除了矿物质外,大海还给了我们珍珠、海绵和海草。接着作者分别用一句话来说明每一样东西的用途。先讲了珍珠,最后讲的是海草,中间的一句肯定是讲海绵的用途了。


    前一句话说海水不能喝,接下来很自然要解释为什么不能喝。


    前面用garbage有力地回答了“我们给了大海什么”,这里是对回答的具体解释。

    答案:A
    解析:
    题干意为“玛乌航行的时候,他有独特的航行技术。”关键词是unique navi-gational skills。依据此关键词组,可在文中第一段最后一句找到相关叙述:“At the time, Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.”(在那时,玛乌是在世的人中唯一一个仅仅通过观察星星、风和海洋来远航的人。)由此可知,当时来说,玛乌的航行技术的确是独特的,故此题说法为“正确”的。
    题干意为“玛乌很熟悉塔希提岛周围的海洋。”关键词是Tahiti。依据此关键词,可在文中第二段前两句找到相关叙述:“He had never before sailed to Tahiti, which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands, so he was confident he could find his way.”(他从来没有航行到过塔希提岛,从塔希提岛到南方是一段很长的路程。然而他知道岛周围的风和海洋是怎么活动的,所以他自信可以找到路。)由此可知,虽然玛乌没有去过这个岛,但是他很熟悉海洋,故此题说法是“正确”的。
    题干意为“玛乌买不起罗盘和图表。”关键词是compass和charts。依据关键词,可在文中第二段最后一句找到相关叙述:“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.”(这次航行要花费他和船员们一个月的时间,而且他们航行的时候没有罗盘和图表。)由此可知,他们航行确实用不到罗盘和图表,但是文中并没提到玛乌买不起这些工具,故此说法为“未提及”的。
    题干意为“玛乌从祖父那里学到了航海技术。”关键词是grandfather。依据此关健词,可在文中第三段第一句找到相关叙述:“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.”(当他还很小的时候,他的祖父就开始教他航海。)故此题说法为“正确”的。
    题干意为“玛乌用石头记忆天空中星星的位置。”关键词是stones和stars。 依据关键词,可在文中第三段倒数第二句找到相关叙述:“Later, Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.”(之后,玛乌用一圈石头来记忆星星的位置。)故此题说法是“正确”的。
    题干意为“夏威夷最早的居民能读写。”关键词是first inhabitants of Ha-waii。依据关键词可在文中最后一段第一句找到相关叙述:“The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.”(此次航行证明,夏威夷最早的居民是乘小船来到这里的,并通过观察海洋和星空来航行。)文中的 reading是观察的意思,除此之外并没有提到这些最早的居民会不会读写,故此说法是“未提及”的。
    题干意为“玛乌希望自己的学生们能立刻记住星星的位置。”关键词是 students。依据此关键词,可在文中最后一句找到相关叙述:“He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.”(他向学生们解释星星的位置, 但他允许学生把知识点写下来,因为他知道他们不可能像他一样记住所有东西。)故此题说法为“错误”的。

    Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator
    Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
    In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a tradi-tional Polynesian boat across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expedition.Its purpose was to find out if seafarers(海员) in the distant past could have found their way from one island to the other without naviga-tional instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and the sea.
    He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
    His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different place.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in the sand to represent a star.
    The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cultures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to remember everything as he had done.

    Mau learnt navigation skills from his grandfather.

    Mau Piailug,Ocean Navigator

    Mau sailed from Hawaii to Tahiti using traditional methods.
    In early 1976,Mau Piailug,a fisherman,led an expedition in which he sailed a traditional Polynesian boat
    across 2,500 miles of ocean from Hawaii to Tahiti.The Polynesian Voyaging Society had organised the expe-
    dition. Its purpose was to find out if seafarers(海员)in the distant past could have found their way from one
    island to the other without navigational instruments,or whether the islands had been populated by accident.
    At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navigate just by observing the stars,the wind and
    the sea.
    He had never before sailed to Tahiti,which was a long way to the south.However,he understood how the
    wind and the sea behave around islands,so he was confident he could find his way.The voyage took him and
    his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts.
    His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby.He showed him
    pools of water on the beach to teach him how the behaviour of the waves and wind changed in different
    places.Later,Mau used a circle of stones to memorise the positions of the stars.Each stone was laid out in
    the sand to represent a star.
    The voyage proved that Hawaii's first inhabitants came in small boats and navigated by reading the sea
    and the stars.Mau himself became a keen teacher,passing on his traditional secrets to people of other cul-
    tures so that his knowledge would not be lost.He explained the positions of the stars to his students,but he
    allowed them to write things down because he knew they would never be able to rememnber everything as he
    had done.

    Mau learnt navigation skills from his grandfather.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:A
    解析:
    文章第一段最后一句话“At the time,Mau was the only man alive who knew how to navi- gate just by observing the stars , the wind and the sea",可知Mau是他那个时代唯一会通过观察星 座的位置,风向和海水变化等信息来为自己导航的人。故选A。
    文章第二段第一句话提到“He had never before sailed to Tahiti",可知他以前从未到过 Tahiti。故选B。
    由文章第二段最后一句话“The voyage took him and his crew a month to complete and he did it without a compass or charts",可知他在航海过程中没有用到指南针或地图,但没有提到他 是否能买得起指南针或地图。故选C。
    由文章第三段第一句话“His grandfather began the task of teaching him how to navigate when he was still a baby",可知在Mau孩童时期,他的祖父就开始教他航海的知识了。故选A。
    由文章第三段倒数第二句话“Mau used a circle of stones to memories the positions of the stars",可知答案为A。
    文章最后一段中提到夏威夷的第一批居住者是乘坐小舟,通过观察海水和星星到达那 里的,没有提及他们是否能阅读书写。故选C。
    文章最后一段中指出,Mau成为老师把传统的航海知识传授给学生,向学生们讲述星座位置的知识,并且允许他们一记录下来,因为他知道他的学生们永远不可能像他一样记住所有的 航海知识。故选B。
