Scientists have begun to catch on to what farmers have known for thousands of years.Animals often seem to know in advance that an earthquake is coming，and they show their fear by acting in strange ways.Before a Chinese quake in 1975 snakes awoke from their winter sleep early only to freeze to death in the cold air.Cows broke their halters (韁繩) and tried to escape.Chickens refused to enter their coops.All of this unusual behavior，as well as physical changes in Earth，alerted Chinese scientists to the coming quake.They moved people away from the dangerous area and saved thousands of lives. One task for scientists today is to learn exactly which types of animals’ behavior predicts quakes.It’s not an easy job.First of all，not every animal can react to the danger of an earthquake.Just before a California quake in 1977，for example，an Arabian horse became very nervous and tried to break out of his stall.The horse next to it，however，reminded perfectly calm.It’s also difficult at times to tell the difference between normal animals restless and “earthquake nerves”．A zoo keeper once called earthquake researchers to say that his cougar (美洲獅) had been acting strangely.It turned out that the cat had an upset stomach! A second task for scientists is to find out exactly what kind of warnings the animals receive.They know that animals sense far more of the world than humans do.Many animals can see，hear，and smell things that people do not even notice.Some can detect tiny changes in air pressure，gravity，or the magnetism (磁力) of Earth.This extra sense probably helps animals predict quakes. 1．What is the main idea of this passage? A．Animals don’t know when an earthquake is coming. B．Animals can predict earthquakes. C．The author doesn’t know whether the animals can feel the coming of an earthquake or not. D．Human beings have to move the animals away before an earthquake is coming. 2．Some animals could predict earthquakes because they can detect tiny changes________. A．in the air pressure B．in gravity C．in the magnetism of the earth D．a(chǎn)ll of the above 3．How do all the animals exactly know when an earthquake is coming? A．By their extra senses. B．By the changes in air pressure，gravity or the magnetism. C．People don’t know exactly. D．The passage doesn’t mention it. 4．The author’s purpose is mainly to________. A．express an argument B．make a serious proposal C．present a discovery D．express suspicions appoint vt.任命；委派 生義：vt.安排，確定(時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)等) A meeting was held at the appointed time and he was appointed chairman of the meeting. 在指定的時(shí)間召開了一次會(huì)議，他被任命為會(huì)議的主席。 The committee appointed me to investigate this case. 委員會(huì)委派我調(diào)查此事。 They appointed a place to exchange stamps. 他們約定了一個(gè)地方交換郵票。 【答案解析】 Period One　Warming Up & Reading Ⅰ.1.to　from　2.from　on　3.as　for　4.out　with　to 5．in　under　6.of　in　7.as　to　8.in　to　9.about 10．a(chǎn)t Ⅱ.1.雖然我的工作偶爾也有危險(xiǎn)，但是我并不在乎，因?yàn)槲ｋU(xiǎn)讓我興奮，使我感到有活力?！?1)Although I have a car　I seldom use it　(2)although they are poor 2．收集和評(píng)估這些信息之后，我就幫助其他科學(xué)家一起預(yù)測(cè)熔巖接著將往何處流，流速是多少?！?1)Having finished all the work　(2)Having lived in the city for many years 3．我剛要再睡，突然我的臥室亮如白晝?！?1)He was about to leave when the telephone rang.　(2)We were about to have breakfast when he came this morning. 4．另外兩人攀下火山口去收集供日后研究用的巖漿，我是第一次經(jīng)歷這樣的事，所以留在山頂上觀察他們。 (1)Weather permitting　(2)The guide leading the way Ⅲ.1.D　[本題考查以however引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)從句的語(yǔ)序知識(shí)，however＋形容詞＋主＋謂。] 2．B　[表示“保護(hù)……不受/免于……”應(yīng)用protect...from...。prevent/keep/stop...from doing sth.意為“阻止……做某事”。] 3．A　[be appointed as...被任命為……。] 4．C　[因houses與burn是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，故排除B、D兩項(xiàng)。burn...to death燒死；burn to the ground全部焚毀。] 5．B　[分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知此處應(yīng)用非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞作狀語(yǔ)。I與experience之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系，且非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞所表示的動(dòng)作發(fā)生在句子謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)作之前，故用現(xiàn)在分詞的完成式。] 6．D　[be about to do...when...剛要……突然/這時(shí)……；第二個(gè)空考查“as...as...”結(jié)構(gòu)，中間用形容詞或副詞的原級(jí)。] 7．C　[adj./adv.＋enough＋to do意為“足夠……做……”。] 8．A　[make one’s way to/towards向……走去。] Ⅳ.1.B　[從第二段的“Animals often seem to know in advance that an earthquake is coming”一句看出動(dòng)物能夠預(yù)測(cè)地震。] 2．D　[從最后一段的最后三句可以看出一些動(dòng)物能夠預(yù)測(cè)地震是因?yàn)樗鼈兡軌虬l(fā)現(xiàn)“tiny changes in air pressure，gravity，or the magnetism (磁力) of Earth”，因此選D項(xiàng)。] 3．C　[從第三段的美洲獅和最后一段看出只是一些動(dòng)物能夠在地震前出現(xiàn)奇怪行為，但是，并沒有確切地發(fā)現(xiàn)所有的動(dòng)物怎樣知道什么時(shí)候發(fā)生地震。] 4．C　[作者的目的是在呈現(xiàn)一種新的發(fā)現(xiàn)。]
