45. C【解析】词义猜测题。根据下文"have given them food, wine and day trips." 给了他们食物，酒和旅费，故选择C。 D I think it is safe to say that snakes are not popular among most people. It would be hard to find a person who is neutral (中立的), or simply doesn't care one way or the other. What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear. Snakes are quite useful, but that doesn't seem to matter. Snakes help control the population of mice. Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere. Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake. The poison argument (毒性的争论) is a strong one. Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people's death. However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can't say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what do we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully. Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded. They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend. Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes do something good in the circle of life. They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should do. If you're lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime. That would be fine with most of us. 46. How does the writer describe the appearance of snakes? A.

A【解析】细节理解题。选项A没有腿的东西；B不受人们的欢迎的东西；C中性的、中立的人D什么都不关心的人。根据第一段最后一句"What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear." 我不知道为什么某个东西即使没有腿也能造成如此巨大的恐惧。此处某个东西指代的就是蛇，故选择A。 47. B【解析】推理判断题。根据原文"Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake." 然而，我们大多数人宁愿看到一只老鼠不是一条蛇。故选择B。 48. D【解析】推理判断题。根据原文"We can't say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones." 只是因为一些蛇是危险的，我们就说所有的蛇都不好。说明危险的蛇只是少数，故选择D。 49. A【解析】细节理解题。根据原文"The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded. They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend." 我能想到的唯一理由是，这些人都是思想开明的。他们能够抛开分歧，欢迎蛇作朋友。故选择A。 50. C【解析】主旨大意题。根据原文"They would prefer to be left alone"他们宁愿独处，此处指的是蛇，而不是作者本人，所以排除选项D。最后一段"Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes do something good in the circle of life."无论我们喜欢或不喜欢的理由是什么，生活中，蛇做了一些好事的。可知作者是站在蛇一边的，所以排除选项A不喜欢蛇；而选项B文章并没有提及作者是否幸运，故也排除，故选择C。 (责任编辑：admin) |
