答案

能力提升练

I.1.advantages考查名词的数。“oneofthe+复数名词”是固定用法，意为"...之一

2.where考查定语从句。分析句式可知，本句的主干是“YellowstoneNationalParkisthe

world'sfirstnationalpark.”,2Iliketotakephotos是定语从句，修饰YellowstoneNational

Park,YellowstoneNationalPark表示地点,引导词在从句中作地点状语，故填whereo句意:我喜

欢拍照的黄石国家公园是世界上的第一个国家公园。

3.various考查形容词。wildanimals是名词短语，应用形容词修饰。此处表示“各种各样的”,

故填variouso

4.but考查连词。设空处前后为两个完整的句子，故此处应用连词连接。上文的“重达300公

斤”和下文的“每小时约64公里的速度”是转折关系，应用but来连接。

5.swimming考查非谓语动词。begoodat擅长.,at是介词，其后应用动名词作宾语。

6.walked考查时态。此处是谓语动词，由时间状语Lastspring可知，应用一般过去时，故填

walkedo

7.Suddenly考查副词。设空处位于句首，有逗号与后面的内容隔开，且提示词为形容词，故推

测此处用副词作句子的状语，注意首字母大写。故填Suddenlyo

8.totake考查非谓语动词。forcesb.todosth.是固定搭配，意为“强迫某人做某事”，其中不定

式作宾补。

9.from考查介词。recoverfrom是固定搭配，意为“从.中恢复”。

lO.reminder考查名词。根据空前的介词as和不定冠词a可知，此处应用名词。这里表示“我

把这张照片看作是对所有动物表示尊重的提醒”，表示“提醒人的事物''应用remindero

II.A

1.D细节理解题。根据第一段中“HegrewuphearingsomanyamazingmemoriesofAfrica

fromhisparents.Asaresult,hewentthere”可知,RupertIsaacson回到非洲是因为父母对非洲的

描述让他印象深刻。

2.A细节理解题。根据第三段第一句"Rupertdiscoveredthatconcentratingonridinghorses

washelpingRowan.”和第四段第一句中“workingwithhorseshashelpedRowanalot”可知，和马

在一起对Rowan帮助很大。

3.A细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Ruperthaswrittenaboutthisjourney...andhehasproduced

adocumentaryofthesamename.”和第四段中的“Ruperthasalsoproducedthedocumentary

Endangerous”可知,Rupert制作了两部纪录片，一部名为TheHorseBoy,另一部名为

EndangerouSo故选A。

4.D主旨大意题。通读全文可知,Rupert因为儿子的缘故，在得克萨斯州的农场上建立了The

HorseBoyFoundation,另外他还写了书并制作了纪录片。由此可知，这篇文章主要讲了Rupert

Isaacson及其成就。

B

5.C主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“一项新的研究显示，随着气候变暖，鸟类在缩小，翼展在

增长。”和最后一段第一句“科学家们还不完全清楚为什么温度升高会导致鸟类缩小。”可知,

本文主要介绍了随着气候变暖，鸟的体型在缩小，翅膀在增长，原因未知。因此本文最好的题目

是C项“气候变化正导致鸟类缩小”。

6.B细节理解题。根据第二段中“Wefoundalmost...attheUniversityofMichigan.（作为主要作

者的密歇根大学助理教授BrianWeeks说:，我们发现几乎所有的物种都在变得更小。‘户和

“Thespecieswereprettydiverse...wasshocking.（他说:，这些物种非常多样化，但它们的反应是

相似的。这种一致性令人震惊。’）”可知,BrianWeeks认为许多鸟类在应对气候变化时都在缩

小是令人震惊的，故
