第一篇
Endangered Species
Endangered species are plants and animals that are in immediate danger of extinction.
Extinction is actually a normal process in the course of evolution. Since the formation of the earth,many more species have become extinct than those exist today. These species slowly disappeared because of change of climate and their failure to adapt to such conditions as competition and predation. Since the 1 600s, however, the process of extinction has greatly accelerated as a result of both human population growth and technological encroachment on natural ecology systems. Today the majority of the world's environments are changing faster than the ability of most species to adapt to such changes through natural selection.
Species become extinct or endangered for number of reasons, but the primary cause is the destruction of natural habitats. Drainage of wetlands, cutting and clearing of forests, growth of cities, and highway and dam construction have seriously reduced available natural habitats. As the various surroundings become fragments, the remaining animal population crowd into smaller areas,causing further destruction of natural surroundings. Species in these small "islands" lose contact with other populations of their extinction.
Some private and government efforts have been organized to save declining species. Laws were made in some countries in the early 1 900s to protect wild animals from commercial trade and killing. International endeavors are shown in the convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, approved by 51 nations. Its purpose is to restrict exploitation of wild animals and plants by regulating and restricting trade in certain species. How effective such laws will be in various countries, however, depends on enforcement and support by the people and the courts. Because of lack of law enforcement, the willingness of some segments of society to trade in endangered species, the activities of people who catch and kill animals illegally and dealers w.ho supply the trade, the future of many species is in doubt in spite of legal protection.
31. According to the passage, which of the following is the most important factor causing the rapid extinction of many species since the 17th century?
A. Human beings are not aware of the importance of preserving endangered species.
B. Some endangered species have already reached the end of their life span in evolution.
C. The development of human society has greatly affected natural ecology systems.
D. The world's climate has changed greatly that most species cannot survive.
32. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, the word "islands" refers to
A. the lands that are completely surrounded by water.
B. the wild animals' breeding grounds protected by law.
C. the pieces of land separated by modern buildings and roads.
D. the small and isolated areas inhabited by certain species.
33. This passage mentions all of the following causes for the extinction of many species EXCEPT
A. natural selection of species.
B. various natural disasters.
C. commercial trade and killing.
D. destruction of natural surroundings.
34. According to the passage, which of the following is most important in saving declining species?
A. Governments should make some laws to protect endangered species.
B. People should pay more attention to the protection of natural surroundings.
C. Relevant law must be made and enforced with the support of the people.
D. Some organizations should warn people not to trade in endangered animals.
35. How does the author feel about the prospect of protecting endangered species from being extinct?
A. Worried.
B. Optimistic.
C. Indifferent.
D. Confident.
第二篇
Americans Get Touchy
The New York Times recently reported that American teens are hugging practically everyone they see. Say goodbye to the greetings of the past, from the hands-off "What's up!" to the handshake or high-five. For young people across the country, hugging is the new "Hello".
Girls are hugging girls. Boys are hugging boys. Girls and boys are hugging each other. And,like every major trend, there are lots of variations on the form. There's the classic, full-body,arms-around-the-person bear hug, the casual one-armed side hug, the group hug and the hug from behind. There's the handshake that turns into a hug and the hug that turns into a pat on the back.
As trends go, this one seems pretty innocent. But some parents, teachers and school administrators are worried nonetheless. Will young people who aren't comfortable with physical contact feel peer pressured into hugging? Will kids who don't receive hugs feel left out? Could an extra-long hug slide into the more ominous territory of sexual harassment?
In response to some of these concerns, some schools have set up new rules to limit or eliminate hugging. One school head has created a three-second limitation for hugs at her school. A few schools have taken even more drastic measures, placing a ban on all forms of touching between students.
A few important points are being left out of the discussion. While the US has traditionally been reserved about touching--saving hugs and kisses for relatives, romantic partners and very close friends--people in many other parts of the world have been greeting each other this way for ages.
In Latin America or Western Europe, in countries like Spain, France, and Italy, a kiss on the cheek is common among women, as well as among women and men who are not romantically involved. The cheek-kiss varies by region. Sometimes it is just an air kiss blown past the face. In other places, the proper way of greeting is to deliver a kiss upon both cheeks, or sometimes even a triplet of kisses performed by kissing one cheek, then the other, then back to the first.
Latin American men are more likely to shake hands when greeting other men, but in some countries like Turkey, its not unusual for men who know each other well to exchange kisses on the cheek. Meanwhile, for the Maori people of New Zealand, a traditional greeting called the "hongi" involves pressing noses together.
So, from a global perspective, the new trend of teen hugging in America is not so "new" after all. People all around the world move in close to say hello, and Americans are just now joining in.
36. The word "practically" in the first paragraph could be best replaced by
A. certainly.
B. nearly.
C. actively.
D. voluntarily.
37. Which of the following is NOT among the typical ways of greetings in the past?
A. Hands off"What's up".
B. Handshake.
C. High-five.
D. Embrace.
38. Some parents, teachers and school administrators concern the new trend of hugging for the following reasons EXCEPT that
A. some young people get involved into the trend due to peer pressure.
B. those who don't receive hugs feel left out.
C. there's the danger that hugging slide into the more ominous territory of sexual harassment.
D. diseases could be transmitted more easily through the extra-long body contact.
39. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Teenagers across the US hug everyone they see in nearly the same way.
B. Although some adults worry about the trend, few measures have been taken to ban on it.
C. Traditionally, the US people have been reserved about hugging between anybody.
D. In some countries, its usual for men to kiss each other on the cheek.
40. We can infer that the author holds a attitude toward the new trend of hugging is__________.
A. positive.
B. negative.
C. indifferent.
D. conservative.
第三篇
Immigration and Problems
Hundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration fights in the US filled streets all over America in early 2006. Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens not criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures--including rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries.
Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400,000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005,according to the Canadian Government statistics. However, all this growth means that cities need to adapt. Newcomers don't always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled. So industries are using mentoring programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs.
With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating, the Spanish Government has decided to get tough. There will be no more mass amnesties for illegals, and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back,the government has announced. About 23,000 migrants landed on the islands in 2006, and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers. This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help.
France's new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high-skilled migration. It takes effect in 2007. The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage. Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications. The selected foreign employees will be granted "skills and talents" visas, valid for three years. But some concern that it'll cause brain drain in developing countries.
41. Many immigrants swarmed into streets in the US in early 2006, demanding that they should be treated as
A. animals.
B. citizens.
C. civilians.
D. criminals.
42. Some Canadian officials want to keep the door open because
A. Canada is in desperate need of talented people..
B. Canada can feed a much larger population.
C. Canada is suffering from labor shortage.
D. Canada is a multicultural country.
43. What has the Spanish Government decided to do?
A. Help immigrants find proper jobs.
B. Let immigrants freely enter the country.
C. Integrate immigrants into the Spanish culture.
D. Take tough measures against illegal immigration.
44. After France's new immigration and integration law takes effect, it will
A. lure overseas students back home.
B. undermine the unity of the country.
C. drain developing countries of talent.
D. induce resentment among the French workers.
45. The phrasal verb "rounding up" in Paragraph 1 could be best replaced by
A. capturing.
B. encircling.
C. separating.
D. frightening.

相關(guān)推薦:2017年職稱英語考試綜合類補(bǔ)全短文練習(xí)匯總
第一篇
31.C。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:根據(jù)短語,下列哪個是17世紀(jì)以來物種迅速滅絕的重要原因?根據(jù)17th century回到原文定位。首段的第五句有相關(guān)信息,大意是:物種滅絕過程迅速加劇的原因在于人口的增長以及對自然生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的技術(shù)侵害(encroachment),與C選項(xiàng)意義相符。
32.D。詞匯題。題干:第二段中的island指的是__________。根據(jù)指代題的原則可知,island應(yīng)是上一句話中small area的另一種說法。D選項(xiàng)是該句的同義改寫,isolated(孤立的)是fragment的近義說法。
33.C。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:關(guān)于動物滅絕的原因,下列哪一項(xiàng)沒有提到?由題干中causes for extinction得知,原文中關(guān)鍵詞前后表示因果關(guān)系的表達(dá)方式很重要。原文用了because of,as,a result of,cause等詞(如原文標(biāo)注)來提示答案所在,通過比較得知,只有C選項(xiàng)(商業(yè)貿(mào)易和殺戮)未被提及。
34.C。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:根據(jù)短文,下列哪項(xiàng)是挽救瀕臨滅絕的動物的最重要的措施?由文章第三段主題句得知該段主要講如何保護(hù)瀕危動物。由本段倒數(shù)第二句可知,法律的有效程度取決于實(shí)施及法院和人們的支持。因此,C選項(xiàng)正確。
35.A。態(tài)度題。題干:作者對有關(guān)保護(hù)瀕臨滅絕的動物的態(tài)度是什么?回到原文最后一句能找作者對瀕危動物保護(hù)前景(prospect)的態(tài)度詞in doubt(值得懷疑的),證明作者態(tài)度并不是樂觀的(optimistic),也不是有信心的(confident)。indifferent(漠不關(guān)心的)一般都是混淆項(xiàng),不能選。所以A是正確答案。
第二篇
36.B。詞匯題。題干:第一段中practically的含義為__________。方法一:通過查詞典可知其意為“幾乎,實(shí)際地”;方法二:可以使用代入法,B(幾乎)是最為通順的,意為“擁抱幾乎所有的人”。
37.D。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:下列哪項(xiàng)不是傳統(tǒng)的問候方式?用限定詞in the past回到原文定位,首段出現(xiàn)了答案。末句講到hugging(擁抱)是新型的打招呼方式,因此選項(xiàng)D(擁抱)不是過去打招呼的典型方式,該選項(xiàng)中用embrace代替了huggin9。
38.D。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:有些家長、老師和學(xué)校管理者關(guān)注擁抱的問候方式,下列哪一項(xiàng)不是其原因?由關(guān)鍵詞some parents,teachers and school administrators定位到第三段第二句,答案應(yīng)該在此前后。此段并列的兩個問句講到了A、B、C三個原因,未提及D(超長時間擁抱容易傳染疾病)。
39.D。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:下列說法哪一項(xiàng)是真實(shí)的?此題改為定位選項(xiàng)關(guān)鍵詞來答題。倒數(shù)第二段的首句提供的信息與D選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容相符,只是原文使用了雙重否定結(jié)構(gòu)(it is not unusual)來表示肯定。其他幾個選項(xiàng)都與原文有出入。
40.A。態(tài)度題。題干:作者對擁抱問候的態(tài)度是__________。尋找作者對hugging(擁抱)的態(tài)度詞是關(guān)鍵。在末段可看到這樣一句話:(通過擁抱)全世界的人越來越緊密。由此可知,作者的態(tài)度是積極的,故選A。
第三篇
41.B。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:2006年年初在美國許多移民涌入街道,他們要求受到怎樣的對待?答案可以從第一段的第二句話中找到。這句話說:許多移民舉著標(biāo)語和美國國旗,要求按公民而不是罪犯對待。
42.C。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:一些加拿大官員想把門開著的原因是什么?答案可以從第二段中找到。前三句話是這么說的:加拿大官員說移民申請繼續(xù)高漲,一些官員想把門開著,他們需要勞動力。
43.D。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:西班牙政府決定做什么?答案可以從第三段中找到。第一句話說:隨著大批的無證非洲移民來到加里那群島且沒有減弱的跡象,西班牙政府決定采取嚴(yán)厲的措施。
44.C。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:法國新的移民和融入法案生效后,會發(fā)生什么情況?答案可以從最后一段的最后一句中找到。這句話說:但是有些人擔(dān)心,這個法案會導(dǎo)致發(fā)展中國家的人才流失。
45.A。細(xì)節(jié)題。題干:第一段中的短語rounding up由哪個詞替換最合適?根據(jù)文意該詞義為“圍捕”,故capturing(捕捉)是正確選項(xiàng)。
