How to survive in the jungle When you're in the jungle(丛林),you need to leave all your mobile phone,your favorite coffee and your chocolate bars at home.When you're in the jungle,you need only four things-water,food,shelter,and fire.You can find all of these easily,but you must know what to look for.
Let's start with water.Even though there's a lot of water in the jungle,you may not find it immediately.One way to discover it is to follow animals and birds,as they need water regularly.Insects can also be a good sign,because they usually build their nests near water.However,don't only look for rivers.You can also find water in some plants such as roots and palm trees.
You can usually find a lot of food in the jungle,but you must be happy to eat things you wouldn't normally want to,for example,insects.However,you need to know the difference between those you can eat and those that are poisonous(有毒的),so start reading about them now!
For cooking and for warmth,collect dry firewood,leaves,and grass.Then make fire using dry sticks-take a box of matches or a lighter with you!
The type of shelter you need depends on the weather and the kind of animals in the jungle.Some insects can be very dangerous,so protect yourself against bites.If you don't have any insect repellent(驱虫剂),try putting mud on your skin.
Of course,if you're lost in the jungle and want to get home again,the sun and stars can help you find your way.
14.If you adventure in the jungle,you should bring ______ .
A. chocolate bars B. coffee
C. a mobile phone D. a box of matches

When I was about 12,I had an "enemy",a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点).Week by week her list grew:I was very thin;I wasn't a good student;I talked too much;I was too proud,and so on.At last,I couldn't stand it.I cried and ran to my father.He listened to me quietly.Then he asked, "Sweetie,are the things she says true or not?Didn't you ever wonder what you are really like?Well,you now have that girl's opinion.Go and make a list of everything she said and find out the points that are true.Pay no attention to the other things she said."
I did as he told.To my surprise,I discovered that about half the things were true.Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin),but a good number I could and suddenly I wanted to change.For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Dad.He refused to take it. "It's just the case for you," he said,"you know better than anyone the truth about yourself.But you have to learn to listen,not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt.When something said about you is true,you'll find it will be of great help to you.Our world is full of people who think they know your duty.Don't shut your ears,listen to them all,but hear the truth only and do what you know is right to do."
Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments.In my life,I've never had a better piece of advice.

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America,the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife.Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely.Unfortunately,it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to a large part of these resources.Millions of waterfowl (水禽) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen.Millions of acres (英亩) of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations,greatly reducing waterfowl habitat.
In 1934,with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act(Act),an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory(迁徙的)waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival.Under this Act,all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp.The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J.N. "Ding" Darling,a political cartoonist from Des Moines,Iowa,who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey.Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.
About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System - a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come.Since 1934,better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat.Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.
25.What was a cause of the waterfowl population decrease in North America? ______
A. Loss of wetlands.
B. Popularity of water sports.
C. Pollution of rivers.
D. Arrival of other wild animals.
26.What does the underlined word "decimate" mean in the first paragraph? ______
A. Achieve. B. Protect. C. Destroy. D. Divide.
27.What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934? ______
A. The stamp price has gone down.
B. The hunters have stopped hunting.
C. The migratory birds have flown away.
D. The government has collected money.
28.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? ______
A. The Federal Duck Stamp Story
B. The National Wildlife Refuge System
C. The Benefits of Saving Waterfowl
D. The History of Migratory Bird Hunting
29.Some people live to climb the highest mountains.Some people live only dreaming about it while others live to avoid ever climbing at all.But one thing is certain,all people meet mountains in their life.
When I was a little girl,my family moved to a tiny town at the bottom of a big mountain.One day after school,while exploring the green woods of this magnificent mountain,I almost fell on a set of stairs.What could these steps lead to?Curiosity got the best of me as I knew it would be starting to get dark soon.I started climbing up those strangely mysterious steps.
I climbed and climbed.There was nothing but just green bushes and these steps.I had to reach the top!But it was now getting real dark.If I kept going I might not be able to see my way back.My mum would be worried sick if I didn't come home soon.So I ran back home almost in the dark while trying not to get too scared.
Anxiously I went to bed dreaming about what I would find at the top of this magical mountain.Could there be a castle up there?Maybe I would find a monster(怪物).Maybe I was taking the risk of never coming back home.Or,maybe all I would find was absolutely nothing!But something inside me was going to climb that mountain at all cost.I could hardly wait to try this adventure again.
Now we live in a world surrounded by the "can't do" attitudes. .We all have doubts and regrets.Still we must climb and dream about what's at the top of our mountain.Monsters may appear or the night will fall.But never ever give up on your dream!Never let anyone tell you, "You can't." Dream big and climb high!
(1) What made the author start to climb up the stairs to the mountain top?(不多于五个单词) ______
(2) Why did the author hurry back home without reaching the top of the mountain?Give two reasons.(不多于十五个单词) ______
(3) How would you describe the author in terms of personalities?(不多于十个单词) ______
(4) How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?(没有字数要求) ______
(5) What's your attitude towards the "mountain" in your life?Please explain. (没有字数要求) ______

11.【答案】【小题1】were
【小题2】cheerful
【小题3】where
【小题4】for
【解析】(1)were.考查时态。句意:经过大量的准备,约瑟夫?洛克伍德和菲利帕?阿莫斯终于准备好开始他们进入亚马逊雨林的旅程。设空处为谓语动词,陈述过去发生的事,谓语动词用一般过去时态;主语为both Joseph Lockwood and Philippa Amos,为复数,be应用were。故填were。
(2)cheerful.考查形容词。句意:他们沿着大河顺流而下,心情很愉快。设空处在系动词feel后面,应用形容词,作表语,cheer的形容词为cheerful,意为"愉快的"。故填cheerful。
(3)where.考查定语从句的关系副词。句意:他们之前都没有遇到过这种极端的情况,只是用一个指南针就找到了这种青蛙生活的地方。此处考查限定性定语从句,先行词place在从句中作地点状语,故用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。

一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。

(4)A.标题归纳题。根据全文可知,由于之前不恰当的发展导致美国水禽骤减,因此美国发行了鸭票,狩猎者只有购买了鸭票才能狩猎,而鸭票的部分收入进入到了用于购买水禽栖息地的基金,从而保护了水禽,故可知,本文讲述了美国鸭票的故事,所以"A.TheFederalDuckStampStory"为最佳标题。故选A。
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了北美大陆遭到了极大地破坏,导致大量水禽灭亡。为了保护这些水禽,联邦政府通过了《候鸟狩猎邮票法》,该法案成为了有史以来最成功的保护计划之一。
做题时要通读全文,把握大意,然后结合题干及选项做出正确的选择。

【解析】(1)考查细节归纳。根据第二段中的What could these steps lead to?Curiosity got the best of me as I knew it would bestarting to get dark soon.I started climbing up those strangely mysterious steps.(这些台阶会通向什么地方?好奇心征服了我,因为我知道天很快就要黑了。我开始爬上那些奇怪而神秘的台阶。)可知,好奇心驱使作者探索这些台阶通往到哪里,从而可以归纳得出答案"好奇心使我这样做的"。故填:Curiosity made her do so.或者The desire to explore.
(2)考查细节归纳。根据第三段中的But it was now getting real dark.If I kept going I might not be able to see my wayback.My mom would be worried sick if I didn't come home soon.So I ran back home almost in the dark whiletrying not to get too scared.(但现在天真的黑了,如果我继续走,我可能看不到回去的路。如果我不早点回家,我妈妈会担心死的。所以我几乎在黑暗中跑回家,尽量不要太害怕。)可知,作者没有到达山顶而急于回家的原因一共有4个,答案只需要归纳2个原因,天黑了,她不想让妈妈担心。故填:Because it was getting dark ,and she didn't want her mother to worry about her.或者Because she was scared,and might not be able to find her/the way back home.
(3)考查细节归纳。根据第四段作者梦见城堡或怪物,可知作者非常具有想象力;以及"But something inside me was goingto climb that mountain at all cost.I could hardly wait to try this adventure again."可知,作者内心的某些东西会不惜一切代价爬上那座山并迫不及待地想再次冒险,可知作者具有冒险精神并且有决心。根据这些归纳出作者富有想象力,勇敢的,有意志力的。故填:She had richimagination and she was brave.或者She was a brave and determined girl with rich imagination.或者She wasimaginative and determined ,and she dared to explore.或者She was imaginative ,adventurous and determined.
(4)考查句义理解。根据全文我们可以推断出We all fall down.指的是"我们生活中遇到的障碍/困难/失败/挑战等"。由此可以归纳出"我们会失败"或"我们生活中遇到的障碍/困难/失败/挑战等"。故填:We all sometimes fail.或者We face failure/defeat/hardships/challenges in life.或者There aredifficulties/barriers/obstacles in life.或者We run into trouble sometimes.或者We have trouble in life.
(5)开放性试题。首先要理解题干中的mountain指的是 "障碍或失败",并且要陈述自己的理由,因此答案可以是"我将努力达到自己的目标因为我想成功"。故填:I will try toreach my goal because I want to live an exciting life.或者I will try to reach/get to the top of the "mountain" becauseI want to be successfulin life.等等。
本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者讲述了小时候爬山的经历,懂得了:我们每个人在人生中都会遇到很多座山,但我们要勇于梦想,攀登高峰。
本题考点涉及细节归纳,句义理解和开放试题等三个题型的考查,是一篇人生感悟类阅读,要求考生准确理解细节信息,结合相关的语法知识和词汇知识,根据上下文进行逻辑推理,做出正确答案。
