　　Ⅱ.閱讀理解

　　Staring at the creature in the small cage at the shelter, Brain

　　Gallagher—six-foot-tall,254 pounds—knew he'd met his match. The dog's black eyes stared back fearlessly and challengingly.

　　“You don't want this one，”a salesman said, “nothing but

　　trouble.”

　　“I'm a policeman，” Gallagher shot back. “Trouble's my

　　business. ”

　　“Yeah, well, this dog was leading a pack that was running wild.

　　Nobody wants him. ” The salesman pointed at a door to the room

　　where animals are put to sleep.

　　Gallagher looked at the card taped to the cage“ King”. The dog

　　barked

　　and the hair stood out around his neck, making his large head appear even bigger.

　　Gallagher took a towel from a paper bag, rolled it, and waved it

　　slowly in front of the cage. King's eyes watched the towel. When

　　Gallagher held it closer, the dog put his powerful jaws on the

　　heavy wire bar.

　　“Told you，” said the salesman, “too wild.”

　　“Unlock it，” Gallagher said.

　　“You kidding？”

　　“Go ahead. He'll be okay. ”

　　The salesman shook his head, unlocked the cage and quickly

　　stepped back.

　　“Okay, boy，” Gallagher said softly, slowly opening the cage.

　　Carefully he held out his hand. The dog smelled. Then he offered the

　　rolled towel. At once, King caught it. Seconds later, the towel was

　　torn into pieces. Gallagher moved back, allowing King out of the

　　cage.

　　King jumped out. His eyes passed over the frightened salesman

　　and focused on Gallagher, who threw another towel down 60-foot

　　hall. King was off like a rocket. Half way down, he started running on

　　the floor wildly. His backside crashed against the far wall. But he

　　had the towel, which he raced back to Gallagher. “ He's got real

　　spirit，” thought Gallagher as the two played tug of war (拔河). Then he tried to pull King back into the cage by pulling the towel

　　hard. Immediately, King bit his forearm.

　　“Okay, you will，” Gallagher said in a soft voice. “You don't

　　like to be told what to do. Neither do I. ”Slowly he reached for the

　　towel with his free hand and threw it into the cage, as if to say,

　　“don't try that again. ”

　　King set Gallagher's arm free and ran into his cage.

　　“I'll be back to pick him up，” Gallagher told the wide-eyed

　　salesman.

　　16. Nobody wanted King because ________.

　　A. he was too old to work for people

　　B. he was too wild to be raised as a pet

　　C. he had the habit to eat expensive food

　　D. only the policeman was suitable to raise him 答案與解析：B　細節理解題。依據銷售人員的話“...this dog was leading a pack that was running wild. Nobody wants him.”可知，答案為B項。 17. The dog made his head look larger by letting his hair stand out

　　as if to ________. A. scare people

　　B. attract people's attention C. show his cleverness

　　D. enjoy himself 答案與解析：A　推理判斷題。依據“The dog barked and the hair stood out around his neck, making his large head appear even bigger.”這句話可知，狗顯然是在讓自己變得龐大、恐怖，以更好地嚇唬人。其他選項在文中沒有相關信息支持。 18. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. The salesman rushed out of the room as soon as Gallagher

　　opened the cage.

　　B. The salesman understood the dog better than Gallagher.

　　C. Gallagher understood the dog better than the salesman.

　　D. Gallagher just wanted to frighten the salesman. 答案與解析：C　正誤判斷題。依據“The salesman...unlocked the cage and quickly stepped back.”可知A錯誤；D項明顯錯誤，Gallagher是想買狗，而非嚇唬銷售人員；依據文章可知，銷售人員覺得狗狂野，不敢將它放出籠子，而Gallagher卻成功地將其放出并且重新關入籠子，由此可將B排除，所以C項正確。 19. Gallagher managed to let the dog free his arm by________.

　　A. beating the dog hard

　　B. begging the dog to let him go

　　C. throwing the towel into the cage

　　D. asking for help from the salesman 答案與解析：C　依據文章倒數第二、三段可知答案為C項。 Ⅲ.七選五

　　根據短文內容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

　　Parents and doctors have the same worry over especially low birthweight newborns.

　　__20__ A trend has therefore developed to make special formulas(配方)of extra nutrients and protein-rich foods for these tiny babies.Unfortunately, a British study has found that this practice could have negative long term effects, such as high blood pressure in adulthood.

　　Between 1993 and 1995，Atul Singhal of the Institute of Child Health and his colleagues researched 299 full-term newborns, each of whom weighed very little for their age. The babies' moms had decided not to breastfeed (用母乳喂養)．

　　__21__

　　The rest received a formula with more nutrients and 28 percent more protein than the standard formula. The growth of all of these children was compared to that of 175 similarly low birthweight babies whose mothers had chosen to breastfeed their children for their first 9 months.

　　__22__ They found 83 babies from the normal-formula group, 70 babies from the extra-formula group, and 95 babies from the breast fed group.

　　__23__

　　According to the latest data, children who had received the extra formula had significantly higher blood pressures than those in the other two groups.

　　Seven human test have indeed shown that when infants are overfed before being stopped breastfeeding, they have an increased possibility to become fat as youngsters.

　　No matter how big a child is at birth, he or she will probably reach the same adult height no matter how quickly the baby grows. But reaching one's adult size at a slow-to-moderate speed may have a lot of benefits, as Singhal says.

　　句 型 剖 析 1. There are certainly no signs that Charles was a rich man！沒有跡象顯示查爾斯是個富人！ 此句中that引導了一個同位語從句。 同位語從句用于對名詞作進一步解釋，說明名詞的具體內容。常見的能接同位語從句的名詞有：belief(相信)，fact(事實)，hope(希望)，idea(想法)，doubt(懷疑)，news(消息)等，whether，when，where等都可引導同位語從句，that引導同位語從句時沒有詞匯意義，在從句中不作任何成分，但不能省略。 There's no doubt who was responsible for this outrage. 誰該對此暴行負責已毫無疑問。 He refused to help me, despite the fact that I asked him several times. 盡管我求了他好幾次，他還是拒絕幫助我。

　　[解題警示]　有時可用namely(即)，that is to say(也就是說)，in other words(換句話說)，that is(那就是)，i.e.(＝that is)，for example(例如)等引出同位語，補充說明其前面的名詞(或代詞)的內容。 He told us the good news, namely, the museum is open to all. 他告訴了我們這個好消息：博物館對外開放了。 There is only one way of improving your English, that is, to practise more. 要提高你的英語水平只有一個辦法，那就是多練。

　　[考試題]　 ①(重慶卷)We should consider the students' request ________ the school library provide more books on popular science. A. that

　　B. when C. which

　　D. where 答案與解析：A　考查名詞性從句。由句意知空格處缺少引導同位語從句的引導詞，且不作句子成分，選A項。句意：我們應該考慮學生們的要求，即學校圖書館應多提供一些大眾科學方面的書籍。 ②(2010·北京崇文)There is a danger ________ museums will attempt to entertain rather than educate. A. why

　　B. that C. where

　　D. which 答案與解析：B　此題考查名詞性從句，that引導同位語從句修飾danger“博物館嘗試娛樂而不是教育，這存在著危險。” ③(2010·北京市豐臺區)Due to the fact ________ the people of the town were given no warning of the coming storm, many people were seriously injured. A. what

　　B. that C. when

　　D. why 答案與解析：B　考查同位語從句的引導詞，that不可省略。 2. If so, it is time for you to think again.如果這樣的話，你需要再考慮一下了。 If so是“If it is so”的省略形式，此省略原則為當從句中的主語是it或主從句的主語一致，謂語動詞又含動詞be時，可把“it”和動詞be一起省略。 He may not be at home then, if so, leave him a note. 他可能不在家，如果那樣的話，給他留個條兒。 This problem may lead to more serious ones if (it is) unsolved. 如果這個問題未得到解決的話，它會導致更嚴重的問題發生。

　　B. no；don't C. not；haven't

　　D. no；didn't 答案與解析：A　If not是“If I am not admitted by a famous college this summer”的省略，主句由上文知也用將來時態。 3. In fact, it is you who have the most important role to play in stopping Yellow River erosion.事實上，是你在制止黃河土壤流失中起了最重要的作用。 此句用了強調句型。 [解題警示] 強調句型小結： ①基本構成It is/was＋被強調部分＋that/who... 被強調部分是人時，用that/who都可以，其他情況一律用that。 ②被強調部分可以是句子的主語、賓語、狀語，但不能是句子的謂語動詞，強調謂語動詞時用助動詞do，does，did。 ③強調句的一般疑問句和特殊疑問句： 一般疑問句為：Is/Was it＋被強調部分＋that/who...? 特殊疑問句為：特殊疑問句(What/Which/Who/When/Where/How/Why)＋is/was it＋that...? How was it that he finished the work so soon? 他是怎樣這么快就完成工作的？ ④not until的強調句型為：It is/was not until...that... It was not until his father returned from the work that the boy began to do his homework. 直到爸爸下班回家，這個孩子才開始做作業。
