分析 這篇短文講述的是現(xiàn)在老虎的數(shù)量急劇下降，如果再不采取措施，老虎就要滅絕了．中國和其他12個國家參加了野生動物基金會的一個項目，拯救老虎，也要拯救老虎的食物，如鹿和野豬等．

解答 51．B形容詞及語境的理解．句意：我們通常認(rèn)為它們是強壯且危險的．shy 害羞的；strong強壯的；cute可愛的；friendly友好的．根據(jù)句意可得，兩個并列的形容詞都是用來形容老虎，只能用strong強壯的來修飾．故選B．
52．D名詞及語境的理解．句意：但是現(xiàn)在，這個大動物正在尋求我們的幫助．trust信任；treat款待；service服務(wù)；help幫助．根據(jù)句意可知，老虎現(xiàn)在在尋求我們的幫助，選D．
53．C．名詞及語境的理解．句意：在過去的70年里，東北虎的數(shù)量從300多只下降到了不足22只．name 名字；kind 種類；number數(shù)量；owner主人．根據(jù)句意可知，這句話說的是東北虎的數(shù)量減少了．故選C．the number of 的意思是…的數(shù)量．
54．B介詞短語及語境的理解．句意：在某些地方，東北虎處在完全滅絕的危險中．in need of 需要；in danger of 處在…的危險中；in front of 在…前面；in case of假如，萬一．根據(jù)句意可知，由于東北虎的數(shù)量減少了，東北虎處在滅絕的危險中．故選B．
55．A形容詞及語境的理解．句意：如果政府不做任何努力，很可能在10到20年的時間內(nèi)，在中國就不再有東北虎了．possible 可能的；impossible 不可能的；necessary 必要的；important重是要的．根據(jù)上文的意思可知，東北虎處在滅絕的危險中，那么如果不努力保護他們，那么很可能他們真的就完全滅絕了，故這里應(yīng)該用possible．
56．B介詞及語境的理解．句意：為了在接下來的十年內(nèi)增長野生老虎的數(shù)量．in+時間段表示在一定時間之內(nèi)，一般表示將來的意思．故選B．
57．A名詞及語境的理解．句意：WWF（世界自然基金會）開啟了一個項目．program項目；competition比賽；performance表演；examination考試．根據(jù)句意可知，WWF只能是開啟一個項目，故選A．
58．B名詞及語境的理解．句意：這個項目想要拯救野生老虎，并終止獵殺老虎的行為．feeding喂養(yǎng)；killing殺害；training訓(xùn)練；researching搜尋．根據(jù)句意可知，WWF是要保護老虎免遭偷獵者的獵殺．故選B．
59．D名詞及語境的理解．句意：野生動物，如鹿和野豬是老虎的主要食物．friends 朋友；stresses壓力；interest興趣；food食物．根據(jù)句意可知，這里的鹿和野豬是老虎的食物．故選D．
60．D動詞及語境的理解．句意：所以最重要的事情是挽救老虎吃的那些動物．find找到；choose選擇；sell賣掉；save挽救．根據(jù)句意可知，想要保護野生老虎的數(shù)量，也要保證老虎有足夠的獵物，所以應(yīng)該去保護老虎的食物，也就是老虎吃的那些動物．故選D．

點評 要做好此類題型，不僅要具備一定的詞法、句法和慣用法等語法知識，而且還要具備閱讀理解能力、綜合分析能力和運用語言知識的實踐能力．首先通讀全文，掌握大意，要結(jié)合句意，根據(jù)語法要求，結(jié)合語境推測適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~．

19．Imagine being asked to go around the world in 80days．That's easy you might think-until you're told that you can't use air transport．You can only travel by land and sea．That changes things!But that's exactly what Michael Palin，a TV host，was asked by BBC to do in real life，just as Phileas Fogg did in an 1873fiction Around the World in 80Days．
Michael Palin agreed to the BBC's suggestion，which would result in a series of documentary programs．He had to make whatever preparations （準(zhǔn)備）he could before setting out from London，England．He went to keep-fit classes and he had a medical check before taking such an adventure （探險）．He talked to one or two experienced travelers who could advise him about what to do in foreign lands．He needed to think carefully about what to take and what to leave behind．
Though a TV host，Michael Palin was more used to having scripts （稿子）to work with，not being followed across the world with cameramen who recorded everything during his traveling．He had never done anything like it before，with no script at all，on a route that might change without warning （預(yù)兆）．There were moments when he thought，"This isn't going to work．"But he did see some wonderful parts of the world and his experiences included working on a barge（游艇） in Venice，taking a battered taxi in Egypt，crossing the Persian Gulf in a primitive （老式的）sailing boat and traveling across China from Hong Kong to Shanghai．
It wasn't just an adventure．It was a race against the clock．As he traveled across Europe to the Middle East，found his way into Asia，crossed the Pacific，took a train through America and finally sailed across the Atlantic back to England，there were times when he thought he might not make it．But he did make it-just within the 80days．His comment？"As a race，"he said，"it was pretty exciting．"
71．The purpose of Michael's international travel might beC．
A．to write a book on adventure
B．to have a race against Phileas
C．to make documentary programs for BBC
D．to take pictures of fantastic sights in different lands
72．A was NOT Michael's preparation before setting out．
A．Writing some scripts for the documentaries
B．Doing exercise to make himself stronger
C．Asking experienced travelers for some advice
D．Having a medical examination to make sure he was healthy
73．From the passage，we can know that MichaelDduring his traveling．
A．didn't think much of the time
B．was always confident and excited
C．a(chǎn)lways got to work with many preparations
D．was sometimes frustrated because of difficulties
74．Which of the following means"大西洋"？A
A．The Atlantic．B．Venice．
C．The Pacific．D．The Persian Gulf．
75．What can be the best title for this passage？B
A．The Adventure Against the Clock
B．Around the World in 80Days
C．An Exciting Race by Land and Sea
D．Two Men's International Travel Game．

17．Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit in a new classroom？Or in a waiting room full of strangers？Or on a bus？Researchers have found out some interesting facts．
    Perhaps unsurprisingly，we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves．Girls，sit by girls and
boys sit by boys．Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near．But it goes further than this．We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us．People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses．People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair．
    We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitudes and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even，we think we may be safer with people who look like us．Sometimes that's true but it's a pity if we always stick to the same people，the same group．The danger in always staying in our comfort zone （舒適區(qū)） is that we just recycle the same opinions，the same tastes and the same ideas．We lose the chance to learn something new，find out about interesting things，hear funny stories and discover differences．
    When we always stick to the same people，how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas？And how can we avoid the ignorance （無知），which too often leads to prejudice （偏見） and even fear？If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions，be the cat among the pigeons．
    Move out of your comfort zone．Go and sit next to someone different．And don't just sit there in silence．Say hello．Ask a question．Start a conversation．That's how we make friends．That's how we learn about people．That's how we open our minds to new ideas．That's how we live an exciting life．
53．From the passage，we know that people prefer sitting by someone whoA．
A．is like themselves
B．has a sense of humor
C．is open-minded
D．lives an exciting life
54．People like staying in their comfort zone because they mayB．
A．remain comfortable and special
B．be accepted easily and feel sale
C．find out more interesting things
D．discover differences among themselves
55．What is the purpose of the passage？D
A．To tell us just to be ourselves in social life．
B．To introduce ways to learn about the world
C．To explain how people communicate with others．
D．To encourage us to meet people of different kinds．
