We’ve talked about snails (蝸牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They’re in their shells ---sleeping .
Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into its shell and closes the opening with a thin cover. Then it goes to sleep. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It can take a short sleep. Or it can sleep for days at a time. And it spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep.
In spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out of from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. It can’t see very well. Its eyes, at the ends of the top feelers are very weak. But its sense of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to the new greens. Then the snail’s little mouth goes to work.
A snail’s mouth is no longer than the point of a pin(針). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are so small that you can’t see them. But they do their work.. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out. And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.
Mostly, a snail looks for food at night .But on cloudy days it eats in the daytime. It eats all day long. A snail can go on eating for hours and never feel full.
小題1:A snail__________.
A.moves more slowly in the daytimeB.has thousands of feet

小題2:In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell” the word “draw” means_________.

B.a(chǎn) snail can’t see well

D.the snail’s body changes in different seasons

C.spring is coming D.it rains heavily

A.A snail doesn’t like living under the sun.
B.In winter the snail doesn’t eat or move.

試題分析:這篇短文是關(guān)于蝸牛的。蝸牛大部分的時間都在睡覺,不管是晴天還是雨天,它都縮在殼里睡覺,冬天還會冬眠。春天它就醒了,用它的嗅覺來尋找食物。蝸牛有很多牙齒,可以用來吃東西, 而且牙齒會更換。它一般晚上尋找食物。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文中第一段But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They’re in their shells ---sleeping.但是打部分時間蝸牛是一動不動的,他們躲在殼里睡覺,所以選D,它們大部分時間在睡覺。
小題2:詞意猜測題。句意:蝸牛把身子縮回殼里。A用筆畫,B遠(yuǎn)離;C拉,D移到尾端,C最符合句意。
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從文中第三段It can’t see very well.它看不太清楚。從而選B。
小題4:判斷推理題。從文中第二段A snail will die in a heavy rain. So whenever it rains, it goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep.大雨可以導(dǎo)致蝸牛死亡。所以不管什么什么下雨,它都躲在殼里睡覺,從而判斷D正確。
小題5:判斷推理題。文中第四段And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.如果蝸牛的牙齒掉了,會長出新的,由此得知蝸牛的牙齒會掉的,所以C選項錯誤。

Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and one of the largest free-standing mountains in the world, and some say, the most beautiful place on the earth.
The mountain towers 15,000 feet above the plains. Mount Kilimanjaro is in Tanzania and it covers an area of 60 miles long and 40 miles wide. Kilimanjaro is an extinct volcano(死火山), with 3 peaks. Kibo is the highest one in the center.
Because of Kilimanjaro's great height, the mountain influences(影響) its own weather. Winds incoming from the Indian Ocean are stopped upward by the mountain and drop their moisture(濕氣) as rain and snow. People have planted coffee, corn, and other crops on the lower slopes(斜坡).
Mount Kilimanjaro now attracts many thousands of walkers each year. Because of a temperature rise in recent years, the beautiful snow cap of Kilimanjaro is retreating(消退) fast. A research said that the white snow on the mountain might be gone in 15 years. What a pity!

DNA is the whole “map” of the human body. It is something that all human have, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our parents, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Mr. Mendel discovered why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things called “genes”(基因) in our body. In 1953, two scientists, Watson and Crick, found out that those small parts are really messages. They’re written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961, another two scientists found the first “word” that they could understand in that language. It shows how DNA tells the cell(細(xì)胞) to build its parts. So far, scientists have found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word” means, we can help to save people from several illnesses. So the more we understand, the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when we learn more “words” and and find out more information, we will use it in the wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people getting jobs.
小題1:When did Mr. Mendel discover why we look the same as other people in our family?

C.DNA is the whole “map” of the human body.

Carrots(胡蘿卜) are grown on farms and in small family gardens all over the world. They are easy to plant and easy to harvest(收獲). They have a good taste.
When people think about carrots, they usually think they are a kind of long, thin, orange-colored vegetable. In fact, carrots are in many different sizes and shapes. And not all carrots are orange.
Carrots should be grown in a field that does not have water for a long time. The earth also should not be too hard. To prepare your carrot garden, dig up the earth and turn it over(翻土). 
Weather, soil condition(土壤狀況), and time affect(影響) the taste of carrots. Warm days and cool nights are the best time to grow great delicious carrots.
The best way to decide if a carrot is ready to be harvested is by its color. Usually, the brighter the color is, the better the taste is.
Most people do not know that carrots can be grown during the winter months. If the winter is not cold enough to freeze the ground, you can grow carrots the same way as you do during the summer months.
Carrots are prepared and eaten in many different ways. They are cut into thin pieces and cooked with other vegetables or meat. Or, they are washed, and eaten just as they come out of the ground.

If the temperature rises by 5 degrees tomorrow, you will probably take off just one coat. But such a change in the average world temperature would be a serious problem. Many animals and plants would not be able to deal with these changes, and would die.
The UNEP(聯(lián)合國環(huán)境規(guī)劃署) released(發(fā)布)the Report 2012 on November 21, 2012. It says that if we don’t take action now, the world temperature will have risen by 3 to 5 degrees by the end of this century.
A large rise in temperatures could be terrible for us and for many other living things on Earth. Sea levels will rise because higher temperatures will cause melting ice flow into the sea.Large coastal (沿海的) cities in countries such as the Netherlands and Bangladesh could be flooded.
Some plants such as corn and sugarcane (甘蔗) will not grow well in higher temperatures. Some countries, such as Brazil and parts of Africa, will not have enough food. The change may cause less rain and even make some places very dry.
On November 26, people from around 200 nations and regions gathered again in Doha (多哈) for the annual UN climate talks.“Climate change is coming to all human beings and effective actions need to be taken to deal with it.”president of the conference said at the opening ceremony.  
小題1:What will you probably do if the temperature rises by 5 degrees tomorrow?
小題2:When was the Report 2012 released by the UNEP?
小題3:Why will sea level rise?
小題4:Where did they attend the annual UN climate talks?
