42、Part A Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET 1 by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets. Text 1 The idea of a fish being able to generate electricity strong enough t

43、o light lamp bulbs or even to run a small electricmotor is almost unbelievable, but several kinds of fish are able to do this. Even more strangely, this curious power has been acquired in different ways by fish belonging to very different families. Perhaps the best known are the electric rays, or to

44、rpedoes (电鳐), of which several kinds live in warm seas. They possess on each side of the head, behind the eyes, a large organ consisting of a number of hexagonal shaped cells rather like a honeycomb. The cells are filled with a jelly-like substance, and contain a series of flat electric plates. One

45、side, the negative side, of each plate, is supplied with very fine nerves, connected with a main nerve coming from a special part of the brain. Current passes from the upper, positive side of the organ downwards to the negative, lower side. Generally it is necessary to touch the fish in two places,

46、completing the circuit, in order to receive a shock. The strength of this shock depends on the size of the fish, but newly born ones only about 5 centimetres across can be made to light the bulb of a pocket flashlight for a few moments, while a fully grown torpedo gives a shock capable of knocking a

47、 man down, and, if suitable wires are connected, will operate a small electric motor for several minutes. Another famous example is the electric eel. This fish gives an even more powerful shock. The system is different from that of the torpedo in that the electric plates run longitudinally (纵向) and

48、are supplied with nerves from the spinal (脊骨) cord. Consequently, the current passes along the fish from head to tail. The electric organs of these fish are really altered muscles and like all muscles are apt (likely) to tire, so they are not able to produce electricity for very long. The power of p

49、roducing electricity may serve these fish both for defence and attack. 1. It can be seen from the passage that _.A.the capacity to generate electricity is the distinctive characteristic of the fishB.the current travels in an upward direction from the positive side to negative side in torpedos electr

50、ic cellsC.some fish can produce enough electricity to drive a number of electricmotorsD.the torpedos electric cells have a shape with six sides答案:D解析 本题要求了解文章主旨的事实和细节。这一题要求我们在对全文整体理解后，并一一对照文中细节，才能做出选择。A认为“产生电的能力是鱼类的一种有别于其他生物的特性”。事实上鱼类中只少数几种特殊的鱼有产生电的能力，并非所有的鱼类。因此A项是不正确的。B认为“电流经过电鳐细胞的正极向上到达负极。”而文中第二段很

51、清楚写有电流从上方的正极向下流到下方的负极，B是错的。C认为“有些鱼能产生足以开动几台电动机的电量”。而文中对于鱼类所产生的电量的描述最惊人的也只能发动一台小电机。因此B是不正确的。D项认为“电鳐的发电细胞的形状是六边形”。在文中第二段曾提到电鳐的发电细胞像蜂窝，由日常知识，我们知道蜂窝是六边形的，所以D是正确的。2. Usually you will not get a shock by touching the electric ray in one place only because _.A.the current in one place is not strong enough t

52、o give a shockB.the fishs electric ceils are filled with jelly like substanceC.to complete the circuit, you have to touch the fish in two placesD.a torpedos electric cells contain more than one electric plates答案:C解析 本题要求了解文章的细节。这一题主要是对细节部分的考查。第二段中的最后一句话详细地写道：“通常需触摸鱼的两边从而使电路循环完成，这样才会感受到电击。”从这里的comple

53、ting the circuit(完成循环)，我们不难看出C项是正确的。3. The main idea of the third paragraph is that _.A.a mature torpedo is capable of producing enough electricity to knock down a manB.the mass of the fish decides the intensity of electric power it generatesC.the strength of shock given by a young electric ray can

54、only light the bulb of a pocket flashlightD.to make full use of the energy produced by electric fish, suitable wires should be available答案:B解析 本题要求理解有关材料的中心思想。这一题也要求我们运用整体理解概括出中心并注意中心与细节的区别。我们可以看到第三段只有一句话，而主句是说“电击的强度取决于鱼的大小”，随后分别以具体事实对比了大小不同的鱼的发电量。所以B“鱼的质量决定了它发电的强度”。反映了第三段的中心。其他三项都只描述一些细节。4. The rea

55、son why the electric eel is able to give more powerful shock is that _.A.the working system of the electric plates in the eel is the most effectiveB.the working system of the electric plates in the eel is far inferior to those in the torpedoC.compared with those in the torpedo, the working system of

56、 electric plates in the eel is more direct and efficientD.compared with other electric fish, the eel possesses much more electric plates答案:C解析 本题要求了解主要事实的细节。在第四段中，作者详细地说明了电鳗的发电系统，电鳗的发电组织是纵向的，由脊骨的神经供电，因而电流从头至尾流动。而电鳐的发电器官是蜂窝状且分布于头部两侧，可以看出电鳗由于其脊骨神经供电，电流可直接由头传至尾，较顺畅，可推断出电鳗的发电系统较之电鳐更直接也更有效一些，所以应选C项。5. The ideal title for this passage is _.A.The EelB.TorpedoC.Electric F
