＞＞＞Penguins are lovely animals. Most people like them. But no..
Penguins are lovely animals. Most people like them. But now as many as 10 of the 17 kinds of penguins are in danger of disappearing. The number of penguins has decreased by ( 减少了) 30% since 1987.Penguins are black and white birds that live in the southern part of the world. They are common in the Antarctic Continent (南极大陆) ,New Zealand, Australia and South America. Many live near cold waters (水域). But some live near warm waters in Galapagos Islands. Penguins& cannot fly, but& they are fine swimmers. The shape of their body helps them to survive. Penguins eat fish and krill& (磷虾). They have short wings that help them to dive up to 900 feet to catch larger fish. They can swim 10-15 kilometers an hour which lets them protect themselves. They also have lots of body oil that helps in keeping them dry in the water.The warming of the earth is the reason for the decrease in the number of penguins. The hotter and hotter air has caused ocean waters to become warmer. Higher water temperature has decreased the fish and krill. Some years later these birds are completely unable to reproduce. And many adult penguins die of hunger.Too much fishing, exploration for oil and oil leaks (泄漏) also make penguins be in danger. Poisonous things in ocean waters are another danger. Penguins also have their enemies, including sharks, seals and sea lions.小题1:Penguins can do the following except________.A．divingB．flyingC．swimmingD．catching fish小题2:Which of the following is NOT the reason for the decrease in the number penguins?A．The warming of the earth.B．Too much fishing.C．Natural disasters.D．Poisonous things in ocean waters.小题3:What does the underlined word "reproduce" mean?A．繁殖B．灭绝C．迁徙D．觅食小题4: What’s the passage mainly about?A．Fish and krill have decreased.B．Ocean waters are polluted.C．Sharks and seals are the enemies of pen&guins.D．The decrease in the number of penguins.

小题1:B小题1:C小题1:A小题1:D本文讲的是企鹅数量的减少以及减少的原因。1.&B 此题是细节题。从Penguins cannot fly, but& they are fine swimmers可知企鹅不能飞，选B。2.&C 此题也是细节题。文章讲了三个企鹅减少的原因，从三、四、五的第一句可知C答案不正确，文章并没有说到的，A,B,C都符合题意。3.&A 此题是考查单词的意思。这里讲的是企鹅减少的第一个原因，水温的升高导致鱼和磷虾的减少，从而导致企鹅不能繁殖，因为缺少食物，故选A。4.&D 这是个对全文的中心思想归纳题，很明显全文讲的是企鹅的减少及减少的原因，选D。

因为篇幅有限，只列出部分考点，详细请访问。
政治经济类阅读
政治经济类阅读：该类文章时代气息浓郁，语言鲜活，但熟字新义词、超纲词及专业词语多，长句、难句多。政治类文章大多数是同学们感性趣的内容，读起来倒有似曾相识的感觉，经济类文章读起来就像是雾里看花，文章看完，一头雾水。再加之这类文章的命题侧重于词义猜测、推理判断和文章主旨，同学们对这类题材是望而生畏。政治经济类阅读注意：1、要做好这类阅读，平时就要注意了解国内外发生的政治经济大事，掌握一定背景知识； 2、对这类文章的叙述特点及内容安排有一定了解，还要扩展这方面的词汇；3、阅读这类文章，要抓住文章的核心，即文章整体和各段主要在说什么，也要注意段落之间的逻辑关系。
政治经济类阅读技巧：针对不同体裁的文章，我们要采取相应的阅读方法和技巧。政治类文章多采用记叙文形式，我们可采取“顺读法”，以便抓关键语句，领会文章主旨；而经济类文章则多采用说明文形式，我们则可以采取“逆读法”，先读试题，再从文章中查找有用信息。若遇到的确难读的材料。1. 寻找主干：根据英语中五种基本句型结构，把句子中的主语、谓语、宾语、表语等主要成分找出来，其他成分如定语、状语、补语等则易于理解。找到了句子主干，句子的意思至少明白了一半。2. 剔除从句：在一个长句中可能会出现若干个从句，在理解时，如果把各个从句剔除出来单独理解，然后把大意拼凑起来，整个长句的意思就会明白六、七分。3. 辨别分句：一个长句如果是由几个并列、转折、递进、对比关系的分句组成，句中往往有表示这些分句关系的连接词，只要能弄清楚分句和分句之间的逻辑关系，再把各层分句的意思加以连贯，整个长句的句意基本上能跃然脑中。4. 寻找关键词：如果一个句子看完，一点句意的感觉也没有，下下策就是抓住句中的关键词，通过关键词大体弄懂这个长句的意思。

& You're rushing to get out of the door for a meeting, but you just can't seem to find your car keys. Or you've got tickets booked for a Caribbean cruise(坐船旅行) , but your passport disappeared. Or maybe you've just come back from a grocery store tour and realized…Hey, did I leave my baby in the checkout line? Ok, you've probably never gone to the extremes of our last example (we hope), but most of us experience slip - ups like these on a daily basis. No matter how smart you may be, it doesn't mean your brain won't turn to Swiss cheese every so often, and no amount of e-mail reminders can help you remember where you left your TV remote or lucky penny. But now, there is a new pair of eyeglasses that can help to find all those little things you know must be around somewhere :& Let's call it Vision 2.0. The new glasses, which are being developed in a Japanese lab under the code name Smart Goggles,are similar to a Google search engine for your eyes. The high - tech glasses come with a camera that records everything you see on a daily basis, and boast built - in object recognition software that allows them to keep track of whatever comes across their field of vision. If you've got a collection of art sculptures that the camera can't recognize immediately, no problem :& Just say the name of each item,& and the glasses will memorize them right away. The Smart Goggles' superb tracking abilities mean that whenever you're looking for your keys, your overdue library book, or yes, even your baby, all you have to do is to say the word and the Goggles' camera will show you the last time your desired object appeared on screen, telling exactly where you'll be able to find it. Though the glasses are still too big for general use, the research team in Japan believes that they'll be able to make the modem glasses smaller to the size of normal glasses in the near future, making them the perfect new accessory for yourself or any other absent - minded Professor you know. With these intelligent designs, you'll never lose anything again. Except maybe your glasses.小题1:The best title for the passage should be _______.A．A Habit of Forgetting Small ThingsB．Usage of New High - Tech GlassesC．How to Find Little Things Easily D．Glasses Will Help Find Your Things小题2:Which of the following is a slip - up according to the passage?A．You can't find your watch before going to work.B．You can't work out a math problem in given time.C．You don't know how to deal with a naughty boy.D．You don't know how to get to a hospital.小题3:Which of the following statement is true about Smart Goggles?A．They're a search engine used on the Internet.B．They're a camera with recognition software.C．They're software used in computers.D．They're sunglasses protecting our eyes.小题4:Where are the new glasses being developed?A．In China.B．In America.C．In Japan.D．In France.

The structure and workings of the university are ever changing. The university of the past is not like the university of the present and the university of the present will not be like the university of the future. This “adaptation” to the times is what can make some universities great or make some universities among the worst in the nation. In the past the university was very set in their ways. They did things the way they wanted them done. They paid no attention to the rest of the society and the way the ones paying the bills wanted them done. In the past the professors would lecture endlessly to the students, which often left the students bored and with no idea what was really said to them in the lecture. This is no way to tr students need interaction with the professors that are paid to teach them. As Paulo Freire believed there needs to be communication between the students and the professors and the class should not be totally memorization. This is the way that things were done in the past. In the present many universities have either changed or are changing the way that they run their universities. The universities now are taking on many of the modern educational beliefs in order to make changes in the teaching methods. Universities are breaking down many of the divides between majors that they offer. By breaking these barriers the universities are becoming less specialized and more diverse. This goes along with the ideas of Berry who believes that the schools are over-specialized and that the universities are now just machines that are merely meant to produce workers. In the past few years the colleges have been lowering the standards of admission, which in turn lowers the standards of all the schools below the college level. The universities are now on the right track by increasing the standards of admission into their colleges. 小题1:In the author’s view, what can decide a university’s quality?A．What its structure is like.B．How its workings are run.C．What times it belongs to.D．Whether it’ll adjust itself.小题2:Which of the following is NOT a feature of universities in the past?A．They were run in a fixed way.B．They ignored the needs of society.C．They had lower standards of admission.D．Professors lacked interaction with students.小题3:What is the author’s main attitude towards universities in the present?A．Positive.B．Doubtful.C．Passive.D．Uncertain.小题4:What would the author most probably focus on in the following part of this passage?A．Universities in the future.B．The standards of schools.C．The admission into some colleges.D．Other changes of teaching methods.

Are you an optimist? Do you look at your glass and see it as half full? Do you believe that every cloud has a silver lining and that things generally turn out for the best? Do you believe that if something is meant to be, it will be? If you reply “yes” to all of these questions, then you are an optimist. You probably are enthusiastic, cheerful and outgoing. You may be successful at work and in love.But you may be misguided because things don’t turn out for the best. You may believe that when one door closes another one opens (for example, you may fail another chance will come around soon). Wrong. When one door closes, another door slams (砰然关上) in your face. That’s bitter reality.Now a book has been published which confirms what pessimists (悲观者) have suspected all along. It’s called The Positive Power of Defensive Pessimism. Its author argues that defensive pessimism can lead to positive results. Defensive pessimism is a strategy used to manage fear, anxiety and worry. Defensive pessimists prepare for the things by setting low outcomes for themselves. They carefully consider everything that may go wrong and plan for ways to handle these problems. And this gives them a sense of control. Lawrence Sanno, a psychology professor, says, “What’s interesting about defensive pessimists is that they tend to be very successful people, so their low opinion of the situation’s outcomes is not realistic. They use it to motivate themselves to perform better.”So far, so good. This is not rocket science. Defensive pessimists prepare carefully and consider what might go wrong, whether at work, on date or even in a sports game. It makes sense to have a back-up plan. There are many sayings in English urging caution. For example, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.” And “Don’t count your chickens until they hatch.” To have a confident and optimistic approach to life’s problems is good. But listen to what Woody Alien, the American comedian says, “Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem.”There are pros and cons to being an optimist and a pessimist. Don’t feel bad if you see the glass half empty. You are a realist. But lighten up and hook up with someone who sees the same glass half full.小题1:What’s the passage mainly about?A．A book that has recently been published.B．How to become successful in life.C．The dangers of being too optimistic.D．The benefits of defensive pessimism.小题2:The underlined sentence “This is not rocket science” (Para. 4) means __________.A．it’s not a dangerous thing to doB．it is quite simple to understandC．the cost is not so highD．there is no real proof小题3:Which of the following English expressions would a defensive pessimist believe?A．Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.B．The glass is half full not half empty.C．Whatever will be, will be.D．Every cloud has a silver lining.小题4:The writer would probably describe himself as __________.A．an optimist B．a defeatist C．a realist D．a scientist
