Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a    1   in number. Human beings are born with this ability.   2   , experiments show that many animals are, too. For example, many birds have good number sense. If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not    3  .However, if you remove two, the bird    4   leaves. This means that the bird knows the    5   between two and three.

Another interesting experiment showed a bird's    6   number sense. A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦)that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming. The bird did not    7   until the man left the tower. The man had an    8  .He took another man with him to the tower. One man left and the other stayed, but they did not    9   the bird. The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. The experiment was    10   with three men and then with four men. But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were    11  .It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.

How good is a human's number sense? It's not very good. For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a    13   group. But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are    14   fooled.

It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human    15   is not much better than a crow's.

【解析】

1.change 考察动词后文中的从four, one, two都说明是在变化。根据上下文意思答题。其他选项A rise 意为上升,B pattern 意为样式, D trend 意为趋向。

2.Surprisingly 考察副词,根据上下文句意,此处表示惊讶,居然动物也具有这种能力。

3.notice 考察动词,原词重现,For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a    13   )意为注意、留意。此题的C hatch选项意为孵化,该词不常见,出处在人教新课标版Book8 U2。

4.generally 考察副词。根据上下文意思可以得出答案。此句意为“鸟普遍会离开”。另外,此题也可以通过排除法解答。其他选项代入意思都不匹配。

5.difference 考察名词。根据上下文意思答题。从上两句“If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not    3  .However, if you remove two, the bird    4   leaves.”的表达或第1 题change不难得出答案。D选项interval超纲了,意为间隔。

6.amazing 考察形容词,根据上下文意思以及第二题的surprisingly不难得出答案。

7.return 考察动词。根据“The crow stayed away until the second man left, too.”的stayed away 以及第11题前“But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were    11  .”的return不难得出答案。

此题答题的关键是看重复出现until的结构语句。The bird did not    7   until the man left the tower. /The crow stayed away until the second man left, too. /It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.

8.idea 考察名词,上下义重现。根据上下文,后面的做法都表明这是一个主意想法。可以直接排除其他选项。

9.fool 考察动词,原词重现,根据12题“   12   able to fool the crow.”的fool 以及14题“the children are    14   fooled.”的词fooled可以得出答案。

10.repeated 考察动词 从上下文意思可以得出答案为重复做。此外,也可以根据常识中的实验是要反复进行的。

11.gone 考察动词,同义重现,根据第10题前的语句“The crow stayed away until the second man left, too.”中的left和第12题的语句“It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were    12   able to fool the crow.”中的

left可以知道答案。

本解析为名师解析团队原创,授权独家使用,如有盗用,依法追责!

12.finally 考察副词根据上下文意思可知此处表示多次努力后最终成功。

13.small 考察形容词 反义重现及排除法可以解答。相对于three or four, 用small较恰当。single只能表示1 不能表示2。local和new与本文的内容没有任何关系。

14.often 考察副词。根据上下文意思可以得出答案。前一句“For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice”的always 和本句中的“But when the number goes beyond three or four,”but可以得知此处答案为often.

15.ability 考察名词,最后一段是对文章的总结。原词重现,根据第一段第一句和第二句话“Number sense is not the ability to count. It is the ability to recognize a    1   in number. Human beings are born with this ability.”不难得出答案。

【考点定位:】考察六个动词,四个副词,二个形容词,三个名词

其中运用重现策略解题的题目有七道题。分别是 3(原词重现),7(原词重现或反义重现),8(上下义重现),9(原词重现),11(同义重现)13(反义重现),15(原词重现)

备考提示:副词这两年都考查了较多(往年要么一个或者没有),重现依然占有一定的比例。所以在平时的复习中选题或编题,应该按照这种情况作相应的调整。

  I knew they were out there somewhere, and I was determined to find them.

  Like most tourists who visit Ranthambore National Park in India, I went with just one goal in mind:to see tigers in the wild.

  Twice a day, all year round, 10 open-topped trucks are allowed to rumble along the park’s dirt roads for a few hours.It costs 360 rupees(about $8, U.S.)to buy a seat on one of the trucks.Glimpses of tigers are free.

  Of course, nothing is guaranteed.Forty tigers wander Ranthambore’s 388 square miles.But tigers hear and smell us long before we can see them.Some tourists I met near the park were lucky enough to see a handful of tigers up close during just one trip.Other people saw none, even after going out six or more times.

  Still, I couldn’t pass up(miss)the excursion(short journey).It was an opportunity that might someday disappear.Tigers are among the most endangered animals on Earth.In India, where about half of the planet’s remaining 7000 wild tigers live, tigers face a number of threats, especially from a growing human population.More than a billion people live in India today, and development is rapidly expanding into what was once largely tiger territory.

  Conservationists nonetheless(in spite of that)remain optimistic.“The tiger will not disappear,”said P.K.Sen, director of the Tiger and Wildlife Program for World Wildlife Fund-India(WWF-India).He was kind enough to meet with me in his New Delhi office on a Sunday, the only day I spent in the city during a recent 3-week trip to India.

  There’s no way, Sen said, that people will ever let the majestic cats die out.“The tiger has been a symbol of strength and might for thousands of years,”he said.

Cambodians are continuing to mourn the death of King-Father Norodom Sihanouk, who died in Beijing this week. In an exclusive interview with CCTV, China’s ambassador to Cambodia, Pan Guangxue, says Sihanouk made indelible(不可磨灭的) contributions to Sino-Cambodian relations and his death will not affect the friendship between the two countries.
Since its founding, the People’s Republic of China has maintained close contact with Cambodia. Bilateral(双边的) trade volume has increased rapidly in recent years, from 200 million US dollars in 2002 to nearly 2.5 billion US dollars in 2011.
China is now not only Cambodia’s third largest trading partner, but for many years has been Cambodia’s number one investor. Norodom Sihanouk, Cambodia’s “King-Father” pioneered the relationship.
Pan Guangxue said, “If we look back at previous decades, I think Sihanouk made the right choice, a choice good to Cambodian national development. It was because of his commitment to the development of Sino-Cambodia friendship that we’ve achieved what we have today.”
In 2010, the two countries established a comprehensive strategic partnership, during its Prime Minister Hun Sen’s visit to China.
And 2013 is set to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year.
Pan Guangxue said, “Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said on many occasions that China does not tell Cambodia what to do or what not to do. China does not point fingers at Cambodia. I think this is a true evaluation of Sino-Cambodian relations. China pursues an independent peaceful foreign policy of non-alignment(不结盟) and non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.”
The ambassador says Sihanouk’s death is a huge loss to both China and Cambodia, but that bilateral relations will not be affected.
Pan Guangxue said, “I believe the bilateral relationship will be sustained and grow even stronger.”
With both countries enjoying the benefits of the fruitful relationship, the governments of China and Cambodia have promised that Sihanouk’s legacy(遗产) will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties.
【小题1】We can learn from the passage that Sihanouk ________.

A.is the present Cambodian Prime Minister
B.went for an interview with CCTV the other day
C.made the right choice to encourage investment in China
D.had great influence on Sino-Cambodian relations
【小题2】The following facts can prove the good Sino-Cambodian relations EXCEPT that _______.
A.Sihanouk was committed to Cambodian national development
B.the two countries has set 2013 to be China-Cambodia Friendship Year
C.the two countries has established a comprehensive strategic partnership
D.trade volume between the two countries has increased sharply in recent years
【小题3】What is Pan Guangxue’s opinion on Sihanouk’s death?
A.It will more or less damage the bilateral relationship.
B.It will continue to be the foundation of even stronger ties.
C.It means a huge loss for both countries in economy.
D.It has very little negative effect on the bilateral relationship.
【小题4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.China-Cambodia Friendship Year
B.China-Cambodia friendship to continue
C.Sihanouk’s death—a great loss to Cambodia
D.China’s peaceful foreign policy to continue
