?、?閱讀理解
The two things—snow and mountains—which are needed for a ski area are the two things that cause avalanches(雪崩), large mass of snow and ice crushing down the side of a mountain—often called “White Death.”
It was the threat of the avalanche and its record as a killer of man in the western mountains that created the snow ranger. He first started on avalanche control work in the winter of 1937-38 at Alta, Utah, in Wasatch National Forest.
This mountain valley was becoming well known to skiers. It was dangerous. In fact, more than 120 persons had lost their lives in 1936 and another 200 died in 1937 as a result of avalanches before it became a major ski area. Thus, development of Alta and other major ski resorts in the west was dependent upon controlling the avalanche. The Forest Service set out to do it, and did, with its corps(團隊)of snow rangers.
It takes many things to make a snow ranger. The snow ranger must be in excellent physical condition. He must be a good skier and a skilled mountain climber. He should have at least a high school education, and the more college courses in geology, physics, and related fields he has, the better.
He studies snow, terrain, wind, and weather. He learns the conditions that produce avalanches. He learns to forecast avalanches and to bring them roaring on down the mountainsides to reduce their killing strength. The snow ranger learns to do this by using artillery(炮), by blasting with TNT, and by the difficult and skillful art of skiing avalanches down.
The snow ranger, dressed in a green parka which has a bright yellow shoulder patch, means safety for people on ski slopes. He pulls the trigger(扳機) on a 75 mm. Recoilless rifle(無后坐力步槍), skis waist deep in powder testing snow stability, or talks with the ski area's operator as he goes about his work to protect the public from the hazards(危險)of deep snow on steep mountain slopes.
16.The snow rangers are employees of ________.
A.the Forest Service
B.the Resource Bureau
C.the Tourist Board
D.the Sports Bureau
17.A snow ranger himself must be ________.
A.a college graduate
B.a physicist
C.a geologist
D.a mountaineer
18.A snow ranger uses very powerful guns________.
A.to warn skiers of an approaching avalanche
B.to signal for help in an emergency
C.to create an avalanche
D.to communicate with the ski area's operator
19.The primary duty of the snow ranger is ________.
A.to make sure ski area's operators are following safety rules
B.to predict and control avalanches in mountainous areas
C.to check skis and repair them
D.to forecast the weather
20.The passage implies that a snow ranger ________.
A.knows how to use a pistol
B.must write lengthy reports on his work
C.may travel many miles when he is on duty
D.has a long working day

答案
課時作業(四十)
?、?1.D 考查動詞的時態。根據句中的時間狀語all the time可知,科學家們一直在創造奇跡,因此應該使用現在完成進行時。
2.B 句意:很高興可以看到那些除了痛苦和饑餓便一無所有的成千上萬的人們有機會改善他們的生存條件。本題賓語從句的主語是millions,而who had nothing but a record of misery and hungry是修飾millions的,故選擇B項。
3.D 考查動詞的時態。注意說話的時間為現在,把“MP5帶來”這一動作發生在過去并對現在造成了影響,因此用現在完成時。
4.A 考查動詞的時態。從后面的and now可以看出,“李小姐在公司做了5年秘書”這件事情發生在過去,現在她已經不是秘書了。據此判斷這一動作發生在過去,應該用一般過去時。
5.D 考查動詞的時態。語境表示“你當時沒注意聽”,據此判斷“注意”是過去某時正在進行的動作,故應用過去進行時。
6.B 考查倒裝。句意:只有雙方都接受了協議,在這個地區才能建立持久的和平。only if “只有”,引導的狀語從句置于句首時,主句的主謂采用部分倒裝結構。if only“要是……就好了”,從句用虛擬語氣,表示與事實相反的情況;as long as “只要”,表示條件;unless “除非,如果不”。
7.B 考查虛擬語氣。if only但愿,要是……就好了。下句意為:要是我沒對他說那些嚴厲的話就好了。和過去事實相反,故用過去完成時。
8.C 考查情態動詞表猜測的用法。答句句意:他不可能走遠,因為他的外套還在這里。故選C。
9.C 考查非謂語動詞。take measures to do sth.采取措施做某事,其被動形式為measures have been taken to do sth.。
10.B 考查名詞辨析。根據句意,空格處應填入一個名詞構成表示“使我們感到放心”之意的介詞短語。因此正確答案為B。anxiety 意為“焦慮”; view 意為“觀點”; judgment 意為“判斷”。句意:使我們松了一口氣的是,杰弗里的病并沒有像我們所擔心的那樣嚴重。
11.C 考查交際用語。A項意為“這是我的職責”; B項“在這一點上我贊同你”;C項“不客氣”,用于回答感謝;D項“這樣說太好了”。由Thanks so much for everything.可知選擇C項。
12.C 考查冠詞用法。in preparation for是固定搭配,意思是“為……做準備”。 knowledge 常用作不可數名詞,意為“知識”,但也可以用作可數名詞,只作為單數,這個形式用法單一,即a/an(+形容詞+)knowledge,表示一種特定的知識。
13.B 考查定語從句。代替表抽象地點的 accident在從句中作狀語,所以要用 in which= in the accident。句意:教育部發表聲明說,屢屢發生的校園內學生遇襲事件已經為校園安全敲響了警鐘。
14.C 考查非謂語動詞。assuming具有連詞功能,意為“假設”。
15.C 考查副詞辨析。meanwhile “同時,其間”。句意:下一趟公共汽車20分鐘后才到,其間讓我們去那里喝杯咖啡吧。somehow “以某種方式”;anyway “不論如何,不管怎樣”; therefore “因此”。Ⅱ.本文簡述了雪地管理員的職業特點、職責以及他們驚險刺激的生活。同時,文章也告訴我們什么樣的人才能成為一個真正的雪地管理員。
16.A 細節理解題。從第三段中The Forest Service set out to do it, and did, with its corps of snow rangers可知,森林服務部和它的護雪場工作人員隊伍一起著手做這件事(指控制雪崩)并且做到了。所以答案是A。
17.D 細節理解題。從文章第四段的首句It takes many things to make a snow ranger.及He must be a good skier and a skilled mountain climber.可知,雪地管理員應是優秀的登山運動員。
18.C 推理判斷題。從文章第五段He studies snow, terrain, wind, and weather. He learns the conditions that produce avalanches. He learns to forecast avalanches and to bring them roaring on down the mountainsides to reduce their killing strength. 可知,雪地管理員使用有很強殺傷力的槍其目的在于制造雪崩——使雪崩沿著山坡轟隆隆地滾下。
19.B 推理判斷題。從文章第五段He learns to forecast avalanches and to bring them roaring on down the mountainsides to reduce their killing strength可知,雪地管理員的職責應是預測天氣和控制雪崩。
20.C 推理判斷題。A項“知道怎樣使用手槍”, 文章中提到了“槍”的使用,所以A不是推理;B項“必須寫有關其工作的長篇報告”;C項“值班時可能會滑行數英里”;D項“工作時間很長”。依據常識和已有的對文章的了解推斷C最合理,因為第四段中說“雪地管理員”必須是身體素質好,所以暗示答案為C。
