Sharks have lived in the world's oceans for millions of years. A shark has an extremely good sense of smell. It can find small amounts of substances in the water, such as blood, body liquids and chemicals produced by animals. These powerful senses help them find their food.
Sharks grow slowly. About forty percent of the different kinds of sharks lay eggs. Some sharks carry their young inside their bodies as humans do. Some sharks are not able to reproduce until they are twenty years old. Most reproduce only every two years. And they give birth to fewer than ten young sharks. For this reason, over-fishing of sharks is of special danger to the future of the animal.
.They eat injured and diseased fish. Their hunting activities mean that the numbers of other fish in the ocean do not become too great. This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.
People hunt sharks for sport, food, medicine and their skin. Experts say the international market for some kinds of sharks has increased greatly because many parts of a shark are valuable. . Shark liver oil is a popular source of Vitamin. The skin of a shark can be used like leather. In Asia, people enjoy a kind of soup made from shark fins. Experts say a fisherman can earn a lot of money for even one kilogram of shark fins.
Sharks are among the oldest animals on Earth. If too many sharks in one area are killed, the group of shark may never return to normal population levels
A. The others give birth to live young.
B. Sharks are important for the health of the world's oceans.
C. This is a threat to other form of life in the ocean.
D. Collectors pay thousands of dollars for the jaws of a shark.
E. Sharks are valuable to us and we can make full use of them.
F. But some sharks are in danger of disappearing from Earth.
G. Sharks eat fish, other sharks, and plants that live in the ocean

【答案】G;A;B;D;F
【解析】考察說明文。本文介紹了鯊魚的有關(guān)信息,如鯊魚的飲食,繁衍以及鯊魚所處的現(xiàn)狀。警告人們要注意保護鯊魚,因為很多鯊魚都處于滅絕的危險之中。

(1)G 前一句These powerful senses help them find their food.講述的是鯊魚敏銳的感覺可以幫助他們尋找到食物。接下來的這句就應該介紹鯊魚的食物具體是什么。故G項符合上下文語境。

(2)A 前句About forty percent of the different kinds of sharks lay eggs說明講述的是鯊魚不同的繁衍方式。有的是產(chǎn)卵,有的是直接分娩出小鯊魚。故A項內(nèi)容符合上下文。

(3)B 根據(jù)本段最后一句This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans.可知鯊魚可以保護海洋里其他的一項生物,說明本段講述的是鯊魚的重要性。故B項內(nèi)容符合語境。

(4)D 根據(jù)下句Shark liver oil is a popular source of Vitamin. The skin of a shark can be used like leather. 可知本段內(nèi)容講述的是鯊魚的器官在市場上收到追捧。故D項與上下文是吻合的。

(5)F 推理題。根據(jù)下句If too many sharks in one area are killed, the group of shark may never return to normal population levels可知現(xiàn)在很多鯊魚都處于滅絕的危險之中,如果我們再不保護鯊魚,也許有一天它們就會消失。故F項符合上下文。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Time is more precious than money for an increasing number of people who are choosing to live more with less—and liking it.
Kay and Charles Giddens, two lawyers, sold their home to start a B&B hotel. Four years later, the couple dishes out banana pancake breakfast, cleans toilets and serves homemade chocolate chip cookies to guests in a B&B hotel surrounded by trees on a hill known for colourful sunsets.
“Do I miss the freeways? Do I miss the traffic? Do I miss the stress? No,” says Ms. Giddens, “This is a phenomenon that's fairly widespread. A lot of people are revaluating their lives and figuring out what they want to do. If their base is being damaged, what's the payoff?”
Simple living ranges from cutting down on weeknight activities to sharing housing, living closer to work, avoiding shopping malls, borrowing books from the library instead of buying them, and taking a cut in pay to work at a more pleasurable job.
Vicki Robin, a writer, lives on a budget equal to a fifth of what she used to make. “You become conscious about where your money is going and how valuable it is,” Ms. Robin says, “You tend not to use things up. You cook at home rather than eat out…”
Janet Luhrs, a lawyer, quit her job after giving birth and leaving her daughter with a nanny for two weeks. “It was not the way I wanted to raise my kids,” she says, “Simplicity is not just about saving money; it's about me sitting down every night with my kids to a candlelit dinner with classical music.”
Mrs. Luhrs now edits a magazine, Simple Living, which publishes tips on how to buy recycled furniture and shoes, organize potluck dinners instead of expensive receptions, and generally how to consume less.
Mrs. Luhrs explains, “It's not about poverty. It's about conscious living and creating the life you want. The less stuff you buy, the less money goes out of the door, and the less money you have to earn.”
(1)Kay and Charles Giddens sold their home to ______.
A.pay off the debt
B.start a private hotel
C.cut down expenses
D.buy living necessities
(2)Simple living includes ______.
A.building a home library
B.living in the countryside
C.enjoying a colourful night life
D.sharing housing with others
(3)It can be learned from the passage that now Janet Luhrs ______.
A.spends more time with her kids

【題目】Recently, online hike-sharing has become the new favorite in China. In major cities, bikes in, yellow, orange, blue, white and green, can be seen almost everywhere on the street. It seems that these bikes appeared suddenly, adding a new beautiful scenery to Chinese cities.

Both the market and the public welcome online bike-sharing, but is it really a promising business? Well, it depends. After all, online bike-sharing platforms can never get away with huge operating cost and uncertain government policy.

Some theorists might say that online bike-sharing platforms can earn a fortune simply through deposit. Since users will always need to rent bikes, their deposit will always be kept to online bike-sharing platforms.

However,although online bike-sharing platforms may be able to use the deposit for other purposes at the primary stage, they will have to set up a special account, so that the deposit shall be used specially for its designated (指定的) purpose. As the market gets increasingly mature, they will have to do so whether to be responsible for users or in consideration of possible government regulations.

Now that online hike-sharing platforms can,t make profit through deposit,how can they become profitable as fiercer market unfolds? Although Hu Weiwei, CEO of Mobike, stated in an article that she would take Mobike as charitable(慈善的) project if she failed, running a startup is absolutely different from managing a charity organization. After all , she has to pay back investors’ billions of investment(投資).

To make profit, online bike-sharing platforms might have toincrease rent fee for each trip, just as Didi did

From this aspect, it might be a really good business. If we consider full screen ads fee, recommendation fee for business owners, etc. , its annual income might reach at least RMB 15 billion. If we consider the huge operation cost, including bike repairs,bikes’ service life and labor cost, there might not be much net profit left. After all, offline operation cost has always been an unbearable burden for such internet plus mode-based startups.

1How does the author feel about the future of online bike-sharing platforms?

A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful.

C. Hopeful. D. Secure.

2How do some theorists think online bike-sharing platforms can make money?

A. Through advertisements. B. Through services.

C. Through deposit. D. Through investment.

3How should deposit be dealt with when the market is mature according to the author?

A. Used for other purposes. B. Kept in a special account.

C. Used for charity. D. Left aside to the users.

4What does the underlined word “unfolds” mean in the passage?

A. Shrinks. B. Spreads. C. Shows. D. Develops.
