[2016·育才中学联考二]I went to the Tsavo National Park in
northern Kenya for a film. We set off early for a distant water hole. A huge
elephant covered with dry mud, drank calmly and deeply. He might have
traveled 50 km to reach the water. He wasn't going to hurry now. He'd
drink a while and rest in the shade, and then drink again or so we thought.
What actually happened was that he drank deeply and stepped away.
S

Then he suddenly
W1
fell down. Within minutes he was dead.
We called animal doctor Jeremiah Poghon immediately. He removed
the head of a poisoned
W2
arrow from the elephant's body, and let out
P1
over
100 liters of pus (胺)－the result of the elephant's meeting with a poacher
(偷猎者) months before.
Today's poacher shoots from a blind. He fires an arrow, covered with
poison, into the body of an elephant. If the poacher is lucky, the elephant
might die in an hour or twoP2; if not, he might have to follow the elephant
for days before it dies. Often the arrow head fails to kill the elephant at
once－it doesn't mean the poison won't finally kill the elephant, but it will
be a slow death.
Living in Tsavo through these times, I could see the results of
poaching from time to time. When I think about the death of that elephant,
what stays with me is the extraordinary
W3
silence after the shocking
W4

sound of his body hitting the ground. I took some comfort from the
knowledge that as the dead body returned to the soil, some animals would
benefit－but I couldn't escape
W5
the feeling that with the death of such a
large animal, the world seemed to be a poorer and emptier place.

[2016·昆明市摸底调研]The expression“a thirst
W1
for knowledge”
may soon have a new meaning for millions of people who have no way to
get clean water. Researchers have developed a book with specially treated
pages that can turn dirty water into clean and drinkable water. They say
their invention could improve the lives of many in the developing world.
About 700 million people around the world are at risk of disease or
even death because their drinking water is not clean. The water is polluted
by harmful
W2
bacteria.
The book contains 25 pages. Each page is about one millimeter thick.
The pages contain very small particles (微粒) of silver. The pages can be
used as filters (过滤器) to remove harmful microorganisms (微生物) that
can pollute drinking water. The filter kills the organisms that pass through
it.
Pictures on the pages show the dangers of dirty water and how to use
the book for those unable to read. The pages are made of
P1
filter paper.
They are designed to be torn from the book. Water can be poured through
the paper to be cleaned.
Ms Dankovich, the inventor, says each page can treat up to 100 liters

of water. She recently presented
W3
her invention at the meeting of the
American Chemical Society in Boston, Massachusetts. She was asked
whether she had considered adding classic literature on the book's
pages.S
“The idea of classic texts—that's of interest
P2
maybe later. We have
discussed a little bit more exciting text. But we really haven't had the time
to go through that_part，” she says.
Teri Dankovich and another researcher tested the drinkable book in
Bangladesh, Ghana and South Africa. The tests proved to be successful
W4
.
Water for Life, a non－governmental organization, has provided
financial
W5
support for the project.

7．In which country did NOT the researchers test the drinkable book?
A．Bangladesh.
C．South Africa.
B．Ghana.

Ⅱ.七选五(建议用时8′)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
选项中有两项为多余选项。
[2016·安徽示范高中联考]Many people write to newspapers and
magazines to express their opinions. Letters to the editor must carry the
writer's full name，address and telephone number, although the
information is not necessary for publication. This requirement to provide
personal particulars is a clear indication that the writers are held

responsible for what they say. When a writer wants his voice heard, he
needs to claim ownership of his voice. __1__
“People today prefer living together to putting their signatures on a
marriage certificate because they refuse to accept responsibility for the
relationship，”said social worker Ken Yip，“and this is what is causing a
lot of family problems.”When we sign a paper, for example, a business
contract or a bank document, the signature is a seal of consent, an
agreement to take the matter seriously. __2__ The absence of a signature,
they explain, tells us that the writer cannot be too serious and therefore
does not deserve a reply.
__3__Multi－billionaire Mr King donates generously to charity
several times a year. He gives simply because he wants to help but not for
the publicity his donations may bring, and he does not want his good
deeds to make news. In other cases, people insist on anonymity because
they are afraid of the consequences of revealing their identity. __4__
__5__ The answer is very personal and lies in how much we want to
get involved. We all have a name. It is a matter of responsibility to use it
when we make a statement，a claim or an accusation. We all want to honor
our own names, and it is only by stamping our expression of an opinion
with our own name that we honor what we say.
A．Crime witnesses may be willing to assist the police, but most are
unwilling to give their names when reporting a crime.
B．Sometimes we have no idea when to sign our names.
C．What's the meaning of your name?
D．Responsibility is the name of the game.
E．Name or no name?
F．Most governments and many organizations will not process written
complains if they do not bear the writer's signature.
G．There are people who wish to remain anonymous (匿名的) for
various reasons.
本文阐述的是在当今社会签署姓名的重要意义。

1．D 根据空格所处的位置可知，该题应选择概括第一段内容的
主题句，结合上文的内容可以判断D项正确。
2．F 根据上文讲述的商业合同以及银行文件需要签署姓名，可
以得知答案为F项，内容相似。
3．G 下文的内容表明，此段讲述的是匿名的几种情况，故选G
项。
4．A 结合3空的主题内容以及空前讲述的几种匿名的情况，可
知答案是A。
5．E 根据下文“The answer is...”可知该空是一个问题，结合上下
文可知这里是议论是否该留下姓名，故选E项。

[2016·唐山摸底考试]Why send a greeting card when you can send
a potato? That's the reason behind one e-commerce site, which mails
actual __1__ (potato) with personalized messages from their customers for
$$8 to $$10. offers customers the chance __2__ (make) a
friend laugh or lighten the mood. The company __3__ (usual) offers their
product in two sizes. For example, a “medium” potato, __4__ can fit 100
characters, is first picked by the senders. And then the company writes
their note directly on the potato skin __5__ a special pen. After that the
potato __6__ (mail) to the receiver in a “tiny envelope” from the company
in Texas. There's no cash __7__ (include) inside—it is just __8__ actual

本文讲述的是一种新型的问候方式，在土豆上留言，并通过电子
途径发给收件人。
1．potatoes 考查名词。根据空格前为形容词，后为介词，可知
此处填名词复数(注意变化规则)。
2．to make 考查非谓语动词。the chance to do sth.“不定式作定
语”。
3．usually 考查词形转换。修饰动词应用副词。
4．which 考查非限制性定语从句。从句中缺少主语且指物，故
用关系代词which。
5．with 考查介词。此处后面为名词，且无提示词，通常为介词，
结合语义可知填with，“使用„„”。
6．is mailed 考查动词时态和语态。mail与potato之间为被动关
系，且全文用一般现在时态，故填is mailed。

7．included 考查非谓语动词。include与cash之间 为被动关系，
且位于名词之后，故填included。
8．an 考查冠词。空前为系动词 ，空后为“形容词＋名词”故此
处为冠词，表示泛指且actual的始发音为元音，故填an。
9．their 考查代词。of one's own意为“某人自己的”，结合句
子主语，可知填their。
10．best 考查形容词等级。空前为the，结合词意可知，此处表
示收到的最好的东西。

[2016 ·皖南八校联考一]假设你是Abby，是学校英文报社“知心
学长”栏目主编。一位叫Sophia的 学妹来信反映自己有“拖延”的坏
习惯。即使她有很多如做作业、弹琴等重要的事要做，也总是不由自< br>主地把时间花在看电视、玩手机等琐事上，为此她非常苦恼。请用英
文给她回信，提一些建议。
内容包括：1.拖延的本质；
2.改正的建议。
注意：1.词数100左右；
2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；
3.文章的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。
参考词汇：procrastination n．拖延，耽搁
Dear Sophia，
I am glad to hear from you. _________________________________

In a word, don't spoil yourself. Although you have a long way to go,
the first step is very essential. Good luck!
Yours，
Abby
One possible version：
Dear_Sophia，
I_am_glad_to_hear_from_you. To be honest, I sometimes have the
same experience as you. But you have to know that procrastination is the
thief of time. The following advice may help you overcome it soon.
The most effective means to solve the problem is that you can make a
“to do” list. For example, you can write “Finish homework before
Saturday night” on your plan. If you manage to finish it, you can reward

yourself. Otherwise, punish yourself. What's more, you can find a person
to remind you to finish work at any time. Then you can arrange your most
important work at efficient times, like 8－10 o'clock. Different people
base different efficient times. But it doesn't matter what time it is. Just
don't waste time, following the schedule strictly. Last but not the least, do
it now, just from now.
In_a_word,_don't_sp oil_yourself._Although_you_have_a_long_way
_to_ go,_the_first_step_is_very_essential._Good_luck!
Yours，
Abby
