江苏省2014届高三英语(牛津版)一轮复习攻略训练:完形填空(1)New genetic analysis has revealed that many Amazon tree species are likely to survive human-made climate warming in the coming century, contrary to previous findings that temperature increases would cause them to die out. A study, 36 in the latest edition of Ecology and Evolution, reveals the 37 age of some Amazonian tree species -- more than 8 million years -- and 38 shows that they have survived previous periods as warm as many of the global warming imagined periods 39 for the year 2100.The authors write that, having survived warm periods in the past, the trees will 40 survive future warming, provided there are no other major environmental changes. 41 extreme droughts and forest fires will impact Amazonia as temperatures 42 , the trees will stand the direct impact of higher temperatures. The authors 43 that as well as reducing greenhouse gas emissions to minimize the risk of drought and fire, conservation policy should remain 44 on preventing deforestation(采伐森林)for agriculture and mining.The study disagrees with other recent researches which predicted tree species’ extinctions 45 relatively small increases in global average air temperatures.Study co-author Dr Simon Lewis (UCL Geography) said the 46 were good news for Amazon tree species, but warned that drought and over-exploitation of the forest remained major 47 to the Amazon’s future.Dr Lewis said: “The past cannot be compared directly with the future. while tree species seem likely to 48 higher air temperatures than today, the Amazon forest is being transformed for agriculture and 49 , and what remains is being degraded by logging, and increasingly split up by fields and roads.“Species will not move as f reely in today’s Amazon as they did in previous warm periods, when there was no human 50 . Similarly, today’s climate change is extremely fast, making comparisons with slower changes in the past 51 .”“With a clearer 52 of the relative risks to the Amazon forest, we 53 that direct human impacts -- such as forest clearances for agriculture or mining -- should remain a key point of conservation policy. We also need more aggressive 54 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to make minimum the risk of drought and fire impacts and 55 the future of most Amazon tree species.”36.

First of all, always check and double-check departure (起程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. O nce I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the pl ane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the d eparture desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I ha d to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit c ards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local curre ncy(货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessar y if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few ye ars ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from Londo n via(经由)Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arr ived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. T he only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had n o dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的).The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about t he weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats i n May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to pla ces like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning t o get quite warm during the day.46. According to the passage, it’s obvious that______A. The author learns some rules of traveling from his own exper ience.B. The author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefully.C. Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travelD. The America taxi driver never travels to England.47. What should you make sure first before setting off?A. When you will leave.B. Where you will go.C. How you will travelD. Whom you will go with.48. According to the passage, the driver was angry because___ ____A. the author gave him false moneyB. the author did not give him the local currencyC. the author did not give him moneyD. the author had no enough change49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.B. You don’t have to take credit cards when traveling.C. You should know more about the weather of the place you’ll visit.D. You should take enough change when you travel to other co untries.50. What is the main idea of the passage?A. A few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.[B. Always check and double-check departure time.C. It is important to have the local currency with you when you arrive in a country.D. To find out as much as you can about the weather at your de stination before you leave.参考答案----------46—50 AABCA*********************************************************结束(****)(2011·桂林一模)I grew up poor—living with six brothers, my father and a wonderful mother.

高中英语真题:2014高考英语一轮完形填空和阅读理解基本训练(4)附答案When someone says, “Well, I guess I’ll have to go to face the music,” it does not mean he is planning to go to a concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this or that, and why you did not do this or that. Sour music, indeed, but it has to be faced.The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every America n, young and old. It is at least 100 years old.The first information comes from the American writer Jame s Fenimore Cooper. He said—in 1851—that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on stage. After they got their cue(提示,暗示) to go on, they often said, “It’s time to go to face the music.”And that is exactly what they did—face the orchestra which was just below the stage.An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on t o the stage in front of the audience that might be friendly or per haps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to g o out. So, “to face the music” came to mean having to go throug h something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice.The other explanation comes from the army. Men had to f ace inspection by their leader. The soldiers worried about how well they looked. Was their equipment clean—shiny enough to pass inspection? Still, the men had to go out, a nd face the music of the band, as well as the inspection. What e lse could they do?64. According to the passage, the word “music” means_____ .A. your boss’s criticism(批评) B. your leader’s inspectionC. something unpleasant to be experiencedD. sour pop music65. The phrase “to face the music” was first used by______.A. some American actorsB. the American writer James Feni more CooperC. all the AmericansD. the American orchestra66. An actor might feel frightened or nervous when going on sta ge.

Study author Brent Cok er said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employ ee’s attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Co ker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reas ons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activiti es are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watch ing video, using social networking sites or shopping online,” sai d Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed t he Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,” he sa id.51.
