It was covered by a thick forest. Different kinds of wild animals were living there happily. As more and more people came to live in Hong Kong, everything changed. People cut down trees to build their houses. Of course, there was no forest left. Elephants, tigers, wolves and many other wild animals died out because they didn’t have enough food to eat. Now, if you want to see animals in Hong Kong, you must go to the zoo. There are many kinds of wild animals and sea animals in Hong Kong Ocean Park. You can also see different kinds of plants there. People take good care of animals in the zoo, but they are less comfortable than in the wild. Ⅳ.听短文,完成句子。短文读三遍。 There is a big food chain in nature. For example, the lion may be the strongest animal in the land food chain. The shark is one of the most dangerous animals in the sea. People are at the top of the world’s food chain. We can make the animals and the plants our food if we want to. But we are facing danger as well. Lots of animals and plants are fewer than before. If we protect animals and plants, we are protecting ourselves! 参考答案及解析 Unit 4 Topic 1 第一部分 听力 Ⅰ. 1.B 2.D 3.A 4.F 5.C Ⅱ. 6.B 7.C 8.A 9.C 10.A Ⅲ. 11.T 12.F 13.T 14.F 15.F Ⅳ. 16. strongest 17. dangerous 18. plants 19. fewer 20. protecting 第二部分 基础知识运用 Ⅰ. 1.Dlittle “几乎没有”, many “许多”,修饰可数名词, lot of是错误的用法, 应该写成lots of “大量,许多”, plenty of “大量的”,既可修饰可数名词,又可修饰不可数名词。故此题选D。 2.C考查易混淆词区别。根据题意:“你站得离电视太近了,你能移远一点吗?”fast指 速度快,slow指速度慢,far指距离远,near指距离近。a bit可修饰比较级,故选C。 3.C考查介词。根据句意:“—今天早上你吃早饭了吗?—没有。我起晚了,没吃早饭就 去上学了。”without breakfast意为“没吃早饭”。 4.D考查keep+n. +adj. 的用法。 5.B考查数词。hundred/thousand等,前面如有具体数字,其后不加-s也不跟of,反之,就 得用复数形式,其后跟of。分析句子,选B。 6.C考查形容词最高级。分析句子,空格后是in the city,故应用最高级,由于beautiful是 多音节,其最高级用the most beautiful,故选C。 7.C此题意为“蓝鲸是世界上最大、最重的动物,却以海洋中最小的动物为食。”“以……为食”应用feed on ... ,而且这是一种习惯表达法,不需要使用过去时,故选C。 8.D考查形容词的比较级。根据句意: “周芳,你能用更少的时间把你的作业做得更好 吗?”空格后的time是不可数名词,只能用little来修饰,little的比较级是less,故选D。 9.B此处是固定搭配,be important to/for sb. 表示“……对某人来说是重要的”。 10.D考查可数名词变复数的语法。 Ⅱ. 11.B 12.C 13.E 14.A 15.D Ⅲ. 16.D考查上下文推测。本句的意思是“蜜蜂找到食物,它就飞回家。”只有D符合要求。 17.D考查词义理解。本句的题意是: “通过对它们说话,告诉其他蜜蜂食物在哪里是不可 能的。”只有impossible符合题意。故选D。 18.C考查词义理解。each other “互相”; another “另一个”,后加单数名词; the other “其他 的”,后加复数名词; others后不加名词。根据题意, bees是复数。应选C。 19.C考查代词。根据上文,指代上文的bees,故选C。 20.B考查上下文推测和词义理解。how long “多长”,how far “多远”,how many “多少”,how old “多少岁”。根据句意: “这告诉蜜蜂食物在哪儿,有多远。”故选B。 21.D考查易混淆词。根据上下文“狗吠”,判断它是生气了。tell表示“辨别”,故选D。 22.A考查词义理解。空格后的动词是has,故可排除C和D,every不能独立当主语,也被排 除,each意为“每一个”,表示强调,故选A。 23.C考查上下文理解。根据上文说动物发出不同的声音表达不同的意思,人类也是如此, 故选C。 24.B考查词义理解。put ... on “把……放上面”, drop ... on “ (无意中)把……掉在上面”, fall ... on“掉在……上面”,set “摆设好”,根据题意选B。 25.B考查上下文推测及词义理解。本文的主时态为现在时,可排除A和C,分析句子结构, 应选B。 Ⅳ.

I am interested in your questions. There are many rivers in our city. Ming Jiang River is one of the longest rivers. But the water in the river isn’t as clean as before. This is because people cut the trees down a lot. As we know, trees can keep the water much cleaner. On March 12th, We often plant some trees on the hills. More and more trees are growing. I think the water is becoming cleaner and cleaner. Looking forward to meeting you soon. Yours, Li Zhiyuan (责任编辑:admin) |
