（5）考查动词。A：found“发现”；B：chosen“选择”；C：raised“升起，饲养”；D：seized“抓住”。 根据下文“human caretakers”可知，caretaker当然是照看Emma的。故该句应指：出生在一个国际鹤基地，Emma由人类抚养照看。故答案选C。

（6）考查名词。A：bonus“奖金，额外津贴，红利”；B：consequence“后果”；C：victory“胜利”；D：sacrifice “牺牲”。根据空后的though（尽管）可知，though前后的两个句子之间是转折关系。后面提到，她过得很开心。根据转折关系，那么前文应该表示“但是这导致了出乎意料的结果”。故选B。

（7）考查副词。A：never“从来不”；B：always“总是”；C：unluckily“不幸地是”；D：cheerfully“高高兴兴地” 根据下文中的“become deeply attached to humans…even …killing some of them”等内容可知，因为Emma一直由人类照看，所以它没有将自己看作是一只鹤，而是深深的依恋上了人类。故选A。

（8）考查动词。A：liked“喜欢”；B：refused“拒绝”；C：decided“决定”；D：hesitated“犹豫”。 根据上文，Emma不把自己当作鹤，所以它拒绝和雄鹤生活在一起。故选B。 （9）考查名词。A：gift“礼物，天赋”；B：skill“技能”；C：concern“关心，担心”；D：reputation “声誉”。根据“even（甚至）”这个递进关系可知，Emma不仅拒绝和雄鹤生活在一起，而且因为弄死了几只雄鹤而臭名昭著。故选D。

（10）考查形容词。A：illegal“非法的”；B：inspiring“鼓舞人心的”；C：important“重要

的”；D：impossible“不可能的”。 Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活，这当然使得她不可能生育小鹤，成为妈妈。故选D。

（11）考查副词。A：Therefore“因此”；B：Moreover“而且”；C：However“但是，然而”；D：Instead “代替”。上文提到Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活，使得她不可能生育小鹤。下文提到两位动物园管理员不想看到这一物种的灭绝。由此推知，上下文之间是转折关系。故选C。

（12）考查名词。A：combination“结合”；B：collection“收集，收藏”；C：strategy“策略，战略”；D：system “机制”。经过努力，Chris和Tim成功的将人工繁殖和自然繁殖结合在一起。故选A。

（13）考查动词。A：forced“强迫”；B：forbade“禁止”；C：taught“教”；D：enabled “使能够”。Chris和Tim成功的将人工繁殖和自然繁殖结合在一起，这使得Emma诞育了五只幼鹤。enable sb. to do sth.固定短语，“使……能够做某事”，故选D。

（14）考查形容词。A：defeated“战败的”；B：grateful“感激的”；C：assured确定的，有把握的，自信的”；D：tolerant“容忍的”。 根据下文“ more efforts must be made”可知，尽管两个人为自己的成就感到骄傲，但是他们还需要付出更多努力，因为野生鹤的数量在减少。所以他们还不能完全放心（白鹤不会灭绝）。故选C。

（15）考查名（代）词。A：it“它”；B：rise“提升”；C：agenda“代办处”；D：decline“下降，减少”。 根据because可知，前后句之间是因果关系，根据more efforts must be made可以推知，野生白鹤数量在减少，所以，还要付出更多的努力（来挽救白鹤灭绝）。故选D。

（16）考查介词短语。A：In contrast“对比”；B：After all“毕竟，终究”；C：By the way“顺便说一下”；D：On the contrary “相反”。根据上文：野生白鹤数量正在减少，很多其他物种似乎也在逐渐灭绝。该句提到，并不是所有的人都意识到野生动物有思想，感情，以及平等生存的权利。很明显，该句是对前文出现野生动物濒临灭绝原因的一种解释。故选B。 （17）考查动词。A：leave“离开，留下”；B：bridge“架桥，渡过”；C：open“打开”；D：identify “确定，鉴定”。针对上文提到的很多物种灭绝这种现象，作者提出一个问题：我们如何来消除将人类和动物隔开的不断扩大的鸿沟呢？故选B。

（18）考查名词。A：course“过程，课程”；B：excuse“借口”；C：answer“回答”；D：reward“奖赏”。 上文提出一个问题：我们如何来消除将人类和动物隔开的不断扩大的鸿沟呢？Chris和Tim的做法给我们提供了一个答案。选C。

（20）考查名词。A：guide“向导”；B：treat“请客”；C：example“例子”；D：companion “伙伴”。根据转折词but可以推知，人类想当然的认为自己的大脑掌握着所有的解决办法。但或许他们可以用“心”更好地“引领”他们去保护这些濒危的动物。故选A。 【点评】本题考点涉及动词，名词，形容词，副词，介词，固定短语等多个知识点的考查，是一篇人生感悟类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻

14．完形填空

Over the past few decades, more and more countries have opened up the markets, increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market. The question is：Is economic globalization 1 for all?

According to the World Bank, one of its chief supporters, economic globalization has helped reduce 2 in a large number of developing countries. It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries as a result of integration (融合) of local economies into the world economy. Home to some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes 4 at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.

Those who 5 globalization claim that economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses. 6 , small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.

Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually 8 the gap between the rich and poor. A study carried out by the U.N.-sponsored World Commission on the Social Dimension of Globalization shows that only a few developing countries have actually 9 from integration into the world economy and that the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind. 10 , they maintain that globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses. For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to 11 their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of 12 . When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to 13 and will be crowded out.

One thing is certain about globalization—there is no 14 . Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The 15 now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all. (347 words) 1. A. possible 2. A. crime 4. A. remain 5. A. doubt 6. A. In addition 7. A. mature 8.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，文章先提出问题：全球化经济化到底有益吗？然后列出了两种相反的观点：一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的好处，一种观点陈述的是全球化带来的问题，各有充足的论点和论据。最后得出结论，全球化不可避免、无回头路可走，只有想办法找到一条最好的全球化的道路。（1）考查形容词。possible”可能“； smooth ”顺利的，光滑的，平稳的“； good”好的“； easy”简单的“。根据上文“increasingly transforming the world economy into one free-flowing global market”逐渐地把世界经济转变为了一个自由流动的全球大市场。很明显这是讲的市场开放的好处，因此后面提出问题，“问题是，经济全球化对所有人都好吗（有好处吗）？”，故选择C项。

（2）考查名词。根据下文“It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries ”中的increased wealth增加的财富，可知，市场开放给这些国家带来了财富的增加，财富增加了，那么就是减少了贫困问题，即选择B项。crime\"犯罪\"; poverty\"贫困\"; conflict\"冲突\"; population\"人口\"。

（3）考查动词短语。contribute to ”促成，导致“； respond to ”对……做出反应 “；turn to ”转向，向某人求助“； owe to”由于“。 根据下文”improved education and longer life “可知，教育得到了改善，人的寿命得到了延长，因此是产生了好的促进作用，因此选择A项。 （4）考查动词。根据上文”It quotes one study that shows increased wealth 3 to improved education and longer life in twenty-four developing countries“可知，这24个国家的财富增加了，也就是说他们的收入增加了，即increase。句意为，这24个国家的人的收入增加了平均百分之五。remain ”仍然“； drop”下降 “；shift”变化“； increase”增加“。因此选择D。 （5）考查动词。doubt “怀疑”； define “定义、规定、明确” ；advocate “提倡、拥护”； ignore“忽视”。根据下文的 “economies in developing countries will benefit from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses”发展中国家的经济会收益，源于小型的、家庭型生意获得的新机会，尤其是其中的“benefit from”可知，该观点的those人们是支持，提倡市场开放的，因此选择C项。

（6）考查固定短语。上一句讲到了小型的、家庭型的生意会获得等多的机会，该句讲的是他们具体是得到怎样的机会，因此属于具体说明、举例说明，故选择B 项。for instance“例如”；in addition“此外”，表递进关系；in other words“换句话说”；all in all“总而言之”。 （7）考查形容词。根据下文“can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.”中的now, worldwide与前半句的originally和 in 7 open-air markets “是对比关系，即过去是当地市场，现在市场开放后是全球市场。因此选择C项。local ”当地的“；mature”成熟的“；new”新的“；foreign”国外的“。

（8）考查动词。根据上文“Critics take a different view”可知，该部分陈述的是反对市场开放

的观点，因此他们认为市场开放会加大穷人和富人之间的差距。widen \"变宽 \"；find\"找到\"；explore\"探索\"；bridge\"架桥、度过\"，故选择D。

（9）考查动词。suffer”遭受“； profit”获益、盈利“；learn”学习“；withdraw”撤退、收回“。根据下文“ the poor, the uneducated, unskilled workers, and native peoples have been left behind”可知，穷人、未受教育的人、没有技术的工人和当地人都被丢在了后面，也就是说只有少部分人是从中（市场开放）收益的，即profit from sth,”从……中受益、获益“。 （10）考查副词。根据下文的“globalization may eventually threaten emerging businesses.”意为全球化会逐渐威胁到新兴企业。该观点与上面几句的观点类似，都是属于反对市场开放的，但是该观点与上面的加大差距不一样，因此跟上一观点是递进关系，因此选择A项。furthermore”此外“，表递进关系；therefore”因此“，因果关系；however”然而“，转折关系 ；otherwise”否则“，转折关系。

（11）考查动词。根据上文中的“small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in 7 open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet”可知，当地人可以通过互联网把商品卖到世界各地，即向国外出口商品，故选择C。句意：例如，印度的手艺人目前看起来是从全球化中收益了，因为他们可以出口他们的商品，但是他们很快就会面对激烈的竞争，这可能会让他们破产。 consume\"消耗、消费\"; deliver\"递送，发表\";export”出口“；advertise\"做广告\"。

（12）考查固定短语。根据“face fierce competition ”可知，激烈的竞争可能会导致他们破产，即out of business.故选择B项。out of trouble” 脱离困境 ：out of business “破产”；out of power “丧失权利 ”； out of mind“心不在焉”。

（13）考查动词短语。keep up“保持、继续、不落后”；come in“进来”；go around“四处走动、供应”； help out“帮助……摆脱困境”。 根据上文的out of business“破产”和下文的be crowded out“被排挤出去”可知，此处指的是小手艺人的生意将不能继续下去。故选择A。 （14）考查动词短语。根据下文可知，随着科技的发展，还会有更多的开放，将会出现更好的全球化，因此可知，全球化是必然的，是没有回头路可走的，因此选择D项，turn back“往回走”；take off“起飞，脱掉” ；get along“相处、进展”；hold out“伸出、坚持”。

（15）考查名词。agreement“同意、一致”； prediction“预测、预计”；outcome“后果”；challenge“挑战”。句意，目前最大的挑战就是找到一个方法，来创造出一个能够对每一个人都有好处的全球化。选D。

【点评】本题考点涉及形容词、动词、名词、动词短语、副词以及固定短语等多个知识点的考查，综合性强，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，通过上下文的逻辑关系，进一步进行分析解析，选出正确答案。

16．完形填空

Early decision you apply to one school, and admission is binding(有法律约束力的) seems like a great choice for nervous applicants. Schools 1 a higher percentage of early-decision applicants, which arguably means that you have a better chance of being enrolled. And if you do, you're done with the whole painful process by December. But most students and parents don't realize that schools have hidden 2 for offering early decision.

Early decision, since it's binding, allows schools to fill their classes with qualified students; it allows 3 committees to select the students that are in particular demand for their college and know those students will come. It also gives schools a higher yield rate (优秀学生率), which is often used as one of the ways to 4 college selectivity and popularity.

The problem is that this process effectively 5 the window of time students have to make one of the most important decisions of their lives up to that point. Under 6 admissions, seniors have to choose which school to attend until May 1; early decision effectively steals six months from them, months that could be used to visit more schools, do more research, speak to current students and alumni (校友) and make a more 7 decision. For any given student in America, whatever their levels are, there are a number of schools that are a great 8 . When students become too fixed on a particular school early in the admissions process, that fixation can lead to 9 severe disappointment if they don't get in or, if they do, it is likely that they are now bound to go to a school that, given time for further 10 , may not actually be right for them.

Early decision offers a genuine admissions edge. That advantage goes largely to students who already have 11 advantages. The students who use early decision tend to be those who have received higher-quality college guidance, usually a result of coming from a more advantaged background. 12 , there's an argument against early decision, as students from lower-income families are far less likely to have the admissions know-how (招生诀窍) to 13 figure out the often confusing early deadlines.

Students who have done their research and are confident that there's one school they would be thrilled to get into should, under the current system, probably 14 under early decision. For students who haven't yet done enough research, or who are still constantly changing their minds on favorite schools, the early-decision system needlessly and prematurely 15 the field of possibility just at a time when students should be opening themselves to a whole range of thrilling options. 1.
