考點(diǎn):詞組辨析
點(diǎn)評:詞組辨析是每次試卷中必然出現(xiàn)的題型,所以平時(shí)一定要把詞組放在句中進(jìn)行記憶。在復(fù)習(xí)詞匯的時(shí)候,要依據(jù)語言的橫向組合和縱向聚合,按照點(diǎn)-線-面順序,構(gòu)建知識網(wǎng)絡(luò)環(huán)境,對知識內(nèi)容進(jìn)行鞏固、深化和提升,這樣才能提高復(fù)習(xí)知識點(diǎn)的效率。這樣,再做單項(xiàng)填空題時(shí),就會覺得游刃有余。對于英語中的詞匯用法,平時(shí)要多歸納總結(jié),詞匯用法的特殊語法規(guī)則更要特別記憶。最好把詞匯放在句子中,連同句子一起記憶,這樣能夠加強(qiáng)記憶。

B
Ever since I was a small girl in school, I’ve been aware of what the school textbooks say about Indians. I am an Indian and, naturally, am interested in what the schools teach about natives of this land.
One day, I read that a delicacy(美味) of American Indian people was dried fish, which , according to the textbook, tasted “l(fā)ike an old shoe, or was like chewing on dried leather.” To this day I can remember my surprise, my anger and my sadness at reading these words. We called this wind-dried fish “sleet-shus”, and to us, it was our favorite delicacy and, indeed, did not  taste like shoe leather, and didn’t rot our teeth and bring about the various dietary problem that trouble Indian people in modern times. It took many hours of long and hard work to cure the fish in just this particular fashion. Early fur traders and other non-Indians must have agreed, for they often had this food as they traveled around isolated areas.
I brought the textbook home to show it to my father, leader of my tribe at that time. On this particular day, he told me in his wise and modest manner that the outside world did not understand Indian people, and that I should not let it prevent me from learning the good parts of education.
At a later time in my life, I had brought a group of Indian people to the country fairgrounds to sell Indian-made arts and crafts. My group was excited to make some money by selling Indian handicrafts. We thanked the man who showed us to our booth and told him it was nice of him to remember the people of the Indian community. The man expanded a little and remarked that he liked Indian people. “In fact,” he went on to state, “we are bringing some professional Indians to do the show!”
As we stood there in shock, listening to this uninformed outsider, I looked at my dear Indian companion, an eighty-year-old woman who could well remember the great chiefs of the tribe who once owned all the land of this country before the white man came bringing “civilization”, which included diseases and pollution. My friend said not a word, but took the hurt as Indian people have done for many years.
Of course, we all knew that the “professional Indian” were not Indians at all, but dressed in leather and dancing their own dances. And, anyway, how does one become a “professional Indian”?
45.Which of the following statements about “sleet-shus” is true?
A.It tasted like an old shoe.
B.Eating it was like chewing on dried leather.
C.It was delicious but bad for our teeth.
D.It must have brought pleasure to Indians as well as early business men.
46.What does the writer mean by saying “how does one become ‘a(chǎn) professional Indian’”?
A.Only the Indians know how to become professional Indians.
B.The outside civilization can help and Indian become a professional Indian.
C.An Indian is a born professional Indian.
D.The outside civilization can help white people become professional Indians.
47.After reading the passage, you don’t know __________.
A.what the writer’s profession is
B.what upset the writer and her friend at the county fair
C.why the writer went to the county fair
D.the writer’s attitude to the so-called civilization
48.This story is primarily about ___________.
A.customs of native Americans
B.how textbooks describe native Americans.
C.misunderstanding between people from different cultures
D.how an Indian becomes a “professional Indian”

As we all know, nature has supplied every animal except man with some covering for his body such as fur, feathers, hair, and shells as a thick hide. But man has nothing but a thin skin.
If someone were to ask you, "Why did human beings start to cover their bodies with clothes?" most would answer, "To keep themselves warm, of course."
It is only when we begin to think about it a little that we realize that clothes are worn for a great many reasons that have nothing to do with our need for warmth at all.
For example, we wear clothes to some degree in order to decorate ourselves-to make ourselves, if possible, look more dignified (尊嚴(yán)) or nicer.
Clothes of a special kind are often worn to show that the wearer has authority or power. The individual wearing them is treated with respect because he occupies a certain office. The judge on the Bench, for example, might look a very ordinary and unimpressive figure without his wig and gown. Clothes are an important part of ceremony, whether it is connected with belief, the law, parliament, and royalty, the fighting forces or the state. How very different the Queen's Coronation ceremony (加冕儀式) would have looked without the robes, coronets and the cloth of gold.
Sometimes, even in some modern countries people wear some article of clothing, or some jewel, because they believe that it will bring them luck or protect them from evil or illness, or because it is connected with their beliefs.
None of these reasons for wearing clothes-to decorate ourselves, to show our position in the world, for ceremonial purposes, for "luck", to give ourselves dignity and authority-h(huán)ave anything to do with our need for warmth.
65.From the passage we know that wearing clothes is man's basic necessity to________.
A. protect skin    B. show beauty      C. keep warm    D. bring luck
66.According to the passage, the judge wearing special clothes on the Bench________.

Animal experimentation is the backbone(支柱) of American research and treatment of disease. Each year, 17 to 22 million animals are sacrificed in the name of science.While 90 percent of them are rats and mice, 180,000 dogs, 50,000 cats.61,000 monkeys and 554,000 rabbits are done away with in Laboratories operated by industry and government.

But the public has raised an outcry over these deaths.Spurred vivid reports of cruelty, the animal rights movement is made up of 7,000 organizations with 10 million members.They've documented cases in which monkeys were isolated in steel tanks for 45 days and dogs were bombarded with radiation or chemicals until they bled from the mouth.

Scientists say such incidents are rare.I aws have been passed to govern testing.Many research centers now have committees to review all proposed animal experiments, and computers can be used in place of animals in many experiments.But scientists say they can't do without animals to test new drugs and treatments on animals to make sure they're safe for humans.Animal experiments produced vaccines or treatments for diseases such as diabetes(糖尿。, and techniques used in open heart surgery.They're important to efforts to find a treatment for AIDS.

Animals rights activists have shown they will go to almost any length.One New York researcher received more than 10,000 protest letters following publicity other experiments in which she gave drugs to monkeys.The researcher was studying drug addiction.A protester was arrested in Connecticut for placing a pipe bomb outside a company that used animals in tests.After fires and break-ins, many labs have bought electronic locks and alarms for protection.Other targets of the animal rights movement are the fur industry, farms, and school biology classes in which children dissect(解剖) frogs.

The movement has scored some successes.A dozen states no longer allow pounds- places that accept dogs and cats that have no homes to sell animals to scientists.Scientists claim the cost of their work will rise as a result.

The battle between scientists and activists raises a basic question: Can modern society be both humane in its treatment of living things and advanced in its treatment of disease? It seems certain there will be new restrictions placed on the use of animals in scientific experiments.

63.Animal experiments will probably continue because         .

       A.there are enough regulations to protest animals from abuse

       B.they are critical for understanding and curing human disease

       C.the groups that oppose them aren't very big or powerful

64.What do proponents (supporters) of animal rights do to convince people of their opinion?

       A.They treat their own pets kindly.

       B.They explode bombs at laboratories that conduct scientific tests.

       C.They give examples of animals that were mistreated in labs.

       D.They point out the diseases that have been cured by scientists.
