18、 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets.One of the
19、youngest independent countries in the Western Hemisphere, Trinidad and Tobago, became a nation on August 31, 1962. For a long time this nation has attracted tourists-it is the home of calypso music and limbo dancing-and in recent years its healthy economy has attracted investors as well.Trinidad and
20、 Tobago is a single country composed of two islands: Trinidad, with the majority of the countrys 900,000 inhabitants, is a rectangle of roughly fifty by forty miles. Tobago, nineteen miles to the north, is smaller and has a population of about 35,000.Situated at the end of the long chain of Windward
21、 and Leeward Islands, Trinidad is at one point only seven miles off the coast of Venezuela. Its geology, flora, and fauna are similar to those of the South American mainland. Like Venezuela, the backbone of Trinidad and Tobagos economy is petroleum and its first colonists were Spaniards.Three mounta
22、in ranges, with summits of up to 3,000 feet, cross Trinidad from east to west, while Tobago is a relatively flat coral island, rimmed with fine beaches. The broad plains between Trinidads mountain ranges are dominated by vast fields of sugar cane that present a symmetrical green pattern when seen fr
23、om the air. A closer inspection reveals the coconut plantations along the coast and the profusion of brilliant red and yellow flowers of various species that are found all over the island. Houses on both islands tend to be light-colored, with an open style of architecture, in many cages with open sp
24、ace under the entire dwelling. Port-of-Spain, the capital, is a bustling modern city where the pulse of the people reflects Britist, Spanish, and East Indian influcnces.(分数:5.00)(1).The title below that best expresses the main idea of this passage is _. A. Trinidad and Tobago, A Young Country B. Two
25、 Islands C. Trinidads Attraction to Tourists D. Sugar Cane Production(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(2).Tobagos area is _. A. approximately 2,000 square miles B. less than 2,000 square miles C. 19 miles from Trinidad D. more than 2,000 square miles(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(3).The flowers of Trinidad resemble those of _.
26、A. Cuba B. Puerto Rico C. Windward Islands D. Venezuela(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(4).Trinidads economy depends on _.

27、he dilemma of the fungus: it is a plant, but it possesses no chlorophyl. While all other plants put the suns energy to work for them combining the nutrients of ground and air into body structure, the chlorophylless fungus must look elsewhere for an energy supply. It finds it in those other plants wh
28、ich, having received their energy free from the sun, relinquish it at some point in their cycle either to other animals (like us humans) or to fungi.In this search for energy the fungus has become the earths major source of rot and decay. Wherever you see mold forming on a piece of bread, or a pile
29、of leaves turning to compost, or a blown-down tree becoming pulp on the ground, you are watching a fungus eating. Without fungus action the earth would be piled high with the dead plant life of past centuries. In fact, certain plants which contain resins that are toxic to fungi will last indefinitel
30、y. Specimens of the redwood, for instance, can still be found resting on the forest floor centuries after having been blown down.(分数:5.00)(1).The title below that best expresses the main idea of this passage is _. A. Life without Chlorophyl B. The Source of Rot and Decay C. The Harmul Qualities of F
31、ungi D. The Strange World of the Fungus(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(2).The statement “you are watching a fungus eating“ is best described as _. A. figurative B. ironical C. parenthetical D. joking(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(3).The author implies that fungi _. A. are responsible for all the worlds rot and decay B. cannot
32、 live completely apart from other plants C. attack plants in order to kill them D. are poisonous to resin-producing plants(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(4).The author uses the word “dilemma“ to indicate that _. A. the fungus is both helpful and harmful in its effects B. no one understands how a fungus lives C. f
33、ungi are not really plants D. the fungus seems to have its own biological laws(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(5).Which word best describes the fungus as depicted in the passage? A. Quixotic. B. Sporadic. C. Enigmatic. D. Parasitic.(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.In their world of darkness, it would seem likely that some of the
34、animals might have become blind, as has happened to some cave fauna. So, indeed, many of them have, compensating for the lack of eyes with marvelously developed feelers and long, slender fins and processes with which they grope their way, like so many blind men with canes, their whole knowledge of f
35、riends, enemies, or food coming to them through the sense of touch.The last traces of plant life are left behind in the thin upper layer of water for no plant can live below about 600 feet even in very clear water, and few find enough sunlight for their food-manufacturing activities below 200 feet.
36、Since no animal can make its own food, the creatures of the deeper waters live a strange, almost parasitic existence of utter dependence on the upper layers. These hungry carnivores prey fiercely and relentlessly upon each other, yet the whole community is ultimately dependent upon the slow rain of
37、descending food particles from above. The components of this never-ending rain are the dead and dying plants and animals from the surface, or from one of the intermediate layers. For each of the horizontal zones or communities of the sea that lie between the surface and the sea bottom, the food supp
38、ly is different and in general poorer than for the layer above.Pressure, darkness, and silence are the conditions of life in the deep sea. But we know now that the conception of the sea as a silent place is wholly false. Wide experience with hydrophones and other listening devices for the detection
39、of submarines has proved that, around the shore lines of much of the world, there is the extraordinary uproar produced by fishes, shrimps, porpoises and probably other forms not yet identified. There has been little investigation as yet of sound in the deep, offshore areas, but when the crew of the
40、Atlantis lowered a hydrophone into deep water off Bermuda, they recorded strange mewing sounds, shrieks, and ghostly moans, the sources of which have not been traced. But fish of shallower zones have been captured and confined in aquaria, where their voices have been recorded for comparison with sou
41、nds heard at sea, and in many cases satisfactory identification can be made.During the Second World War the hydrophone network set up by the United States Navy to protect the entrance to Chesapeake Bay was temporarily made useless when, in the spring of 1942, the speakers at the surface began to giv
42、e forth, every evening, a sound described as being like “a pneumatic drill tearing up pavement“. The extraneous noises that came over the hydrophones completely masked the sounds of the passage of ships. Eventually it was discovered that the sounds were the voices of fish known as croakers, Which in
43、 the spring move into Chesapeake Bay from the offshore wintering grounds. As soon as the noise had been identified and analyzed, it was possible to screen it out with an electric filter, so that once more only the sounds of ships came thorugh the speakers.(分数:5.00)(1).Many underwater animals cannot
44、see because _. A. the lack of light has gradually eliminated their capacity to see B. they use sound waves instead of light to navigate in the darkness C. they have learned to survive without seeing their enemies or their prey D. their sense of touch has eliminated their need to see(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.
45、(2).According to the text, which of the following is NOT a use for a hydrophone? A. To listen to the sound of undersea fauna. B. To search for unknown species of fish and other creatures. C. To monitor the passing of surface vessels. D. To detect submerged submarines.(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(3).Animals tha
46、t live near the bottom of the sea are most likely to be carnivorous because _. A. they have developed sharp teeth and strong jaws with which to kill their prey B. plants that grow far below the surface are not edible C. animals cannot make their own food, so they eat each other D. most surface veget
47、ation is eaten before it sinks to the bottom of the sea(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(4).Which of the following statements about the state of oceanographic research does the text most clearly support? A. Undersea research is still incomplete. B. Technology used in undersea studies is still in a very primitive stage of development. C. More undersea research is conducted near shore than in mid-ocean. D. Military researchers have made several momentous discoveries about undersea life.(分数:1.00)A.B.C.D.(5).The authors main
