Unit 3 A taste of English humour ***閱讀理解。 The Amazon basin region is home to about 2.5 million insect species，tens of thousands of plants，and some 2 000 birds and mammals.To date，at least 40 000 plant species,3 000 fish,1 294 birds,427 mammals,428 amphibians，and 378 reptiles have been scientifically classified in the region.One in five of all the birds in the world live in the rainforests of the Amazon. The warm wet forests have been in existence for 55 million years，and thrived even during glacial periods，allowing for the evolution of an unbelievable diversity of species.Radiocarbon dating(放射性碳年代測定)has revealed trees of 10 centimeter diameter to be more than 300 years old，and some trees over 1 000 years old，indicating that untouched forests can experience unbelievable longevity. The first human inhabitants are thought to have settled in the Amazon region about 11 200 years ago.European explorers arrived in the 16th century，bringing diseases which traveled faster than the explorers themselves，killing perhaps as many as 90% of the indigenous inhabitants(土著居民)．By the late 17th century the Amazon basin was controlled by Portuguese and Spanish explorers. The Amazon rainforest has been described as the lungs of our planet because of its important role in recycling carbon dioxide into oxygen.But due to deforestation(采伐森林)，rainforests now cover less than 5% of the Earths land surface，and experts believe that this is a big contributor to global climate change.Severe deforestation began in the 20th century，with 587 000 square kilometers lost up to the year 2000.Most deforested land is used for grassland to raise farm animals and agriculture.The addition of transport routes has led to increased settlement and deforestation，and at the present rate，scientists estimate that the Amazon rainforest will be reduced by 40% in two decades. 1．Why are the figures mentioned in Paragraph 1? A．To prove the forest untouched. B．To classify species scientifically. C．To show the diversity of species. D．To attract more attention to Amazon. 2．Why did most indigenous inhabitants in the Amazon region die? A．European explorers brought diseases there. B．Portuguese explorers treated them badly. C．A lot of trees were cut down and burned. D．They got killed by Spanish explorers. 3．What can be inferred about the Amazon rainforest? A．It has the largest number of species. B．It covers over 5% of South America. C．It is being larger in area. D．It is being endangered now. 4．What may be included in the following paragraph? A．Examples of destroying forests. B．Measures to protect rainforests. C．New settlements in Amazon. D．Ways to stop global warming. 【解題導語】本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了亞馬遜熱帶雨林正面臨消失的危險。 1．C　目的意圖題。通讀全文可知，第一段提到昆蟲、植物和動物等物種的數(shù)量，是為了表明亞馬遜熱帶雨林物種的多樣性。故答案選C。 2．A　細節(jié)理解題。European explorers arrived in the 16th century, bringing diseases which traveled faster than the explorers themselves，killing perhaps as many as 90% of the indigenous inhabitants(土著居民)．(第三段第二句) 譯文：十六世紀，歐洲探險家來到這里，帶來了疾病，這些疾病的傳播速度比探險家前行的腳步還要快，大約使多達90%的土著居民死亡。 根據(jù)關(guān)鍵句可知，歐洲探險家把疾病帶到亞馬遜地區(qū)，導致大多數(shù)土著居民死亡。故答案選A。 3．D　推理判斷題。The addition of transport routes has led to increased settlement and deforestation，and at the present rate，scientists estimate that the Amazon rain forest will be reduced by 40% in two decades.(最后一段最后一句) 譯文：運輸路線的增加導致了定居點和濫伐森林的增加，根據(jù)目前的速度，科學家估計亞馬遜熱帶雨林在二十年內(nèi)將減少40%。 根據(jù)關(guān)鍵句可推知，亞馬遜熱帶雨林正面臨消失的危險。故答案選D。 4．B　推理判斷題。最后一段主要介紹了由于濫伐森林，亞馬遜熱帶雨林覆蓋率在下降，正面臨消失的危險；由此可推知，文章接下來應是針對這種情況介紹如何保護亞馬遜熱帶雨林。故答案選B。 亮點句積累：The addition of transport routes has led to increased settlement and deforestation，and at the present rate，scientists estimate that the Amazon rain forest will be reduced by 40% in two decades.(最后一段最后一句) 譯文：運輸路線的增加導致了定居點和濫伐森林的增加，根據(jù)目前的速度，科學家估計亞馬遜熱帶雨林在二十年內(nèi)將減少40%。 ***語法填空。 Tyler Thompson is __1__ unlikely star in the world of Peking opera.

I learned this from one of my experience. I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me but pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another chance of trying out arrived, I was full prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team. From this, I am firmly convincing that we are able to seize a chance as long as I get well prepared. 答案： As the saying goes, chance the prepared mind. I learned this from one of my . I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball every day. When another chance of trying out arrived, I was prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team. From this, I am firmly that we are able to seize a chance as long as get well prepared. 難項分析： 第五處：but→and　考查連詞。本句中，“stopped”和“pointed out”共同作句子的謂語，為并列關(guān)系，故改but為and。 第六處：which→that　考查強調(diào)句型。本句中賓語從句為強調(diào)句，被強調(diào)的部分是my laziness and poor preparation；強調(diào)句型的結(jié)構(gòu)為It is/was ... that/who ...，故改which為that。 第九處：convincing→convinced　考查形容詞。convinced表示人“信服的”；convincing表示事物“令人信服的”。此處構(gòu)成“Sb. be firmly convinced that從句”句型，意為“某人堅信……”，故改convincing為convinced。 ***
