players.athe；a ba；acthe；/ d/；the答案a解析考查冠词的用法。根据题干语境可知，第一空表示特指，应该使用定冠词the；success在此处是抽象名词具体化，指的是成功的事，为可数名词，之前应该使用不定冠词a。故答案选a。10i want to go camping，just for a change.ok，_awho cares? bwhatever you

nation of nauru used to be a beautiful place.now it is an ecological disaster area.naurus heartbreaking story could have one good consequenceother countries might learn from its mistakes.for thousands of years，polynesian people lived on the remote island of nauru，far from western civilization.the first european to arrive was john fearn in 1798.he was the british captain of the hunter，a whaling ship.he called the island pleasant island.however，because it was very remote，nauru had little communication with europeans at first.then whaling ships and other traders began to visit，bringing guns and alcohol.these elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island.a tenyear civil war started，which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.naurus real troubles began in 1899 when a british mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island.in fact，it found that the island of nauru was nearly all phosphate，which is a very important fertilizer for farming.the company began mining the phosphate.a phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground；it is a strip mine.when a company stripmines，it removes the top layer of soil.then it takes away the material it wants.strip mining totally destroys the land.gradually，the lovely island of nauru started to look like the moon.in 1968，nauru became one of the richest countries in the world.every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.unfortunately，the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars.in addition，they used millions more dollars for personal expenses.some people realized that they had a terrible problemtheir phosphate was running out.ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing.by 2000，nauru was almost financially ruined.experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island.this will probably never happen.(2012山东，a)1what might be the authors purpose in writing the text?ato seek help for naurus problems.bto give a warning to other countries.cto show the importance of money.dto tell a heartbreaking story of a war.答案b解析作者意图题。通读全文不难看出，作者通过讲述瑙鲁外来驻民无节制地开采磷酸盐而使其成为一个不可修复的生态灾难区这一令人心碎的故事来警示人们不应破坏生态平衡，而应与自然和谐相处，故b项正确，文章第一段最后一句也有暗示。2what was nauru like before the europeans came?arich and powerful.bmodern and open.cpeaceful and attractive.dgreedy and aggressive.答案c解析细节理解题。由第一段第一句“.used to be a beautiful place.”可知瑙鲁曾经是很迷人的；由第二段中的“.lived on the remote island of nauru，far from western civilization.”可知瑙鲁是一个地处偏远，远离西方文明的岛国，故应当是很静谧的，由此知选c项。3the ecologic
