2019-2020年高考英語(yǔ)一輪總復(fù)習(xí) 課時(shí)作業(yè)2 English around the world 新人教版.閱讀理解(xx湖北省天門中學(xué)元月質(zhì)檢)Heavy snowfall and chilling temperatures of 30 do not stop criminals in northern Russia.Now police trying to maintain law in the region are struggling on their snowmobiles and want to use reindeer to bat crime on the bleak tundra(陰冷的凍土地帶)They say that that mammals are more reliable than their machines and can run fast on deep snow thanks to their adaptable hooves.Some areas of the countrys Arctic region are only accessible by reindeer and the lzvestia newspaper has reported that a gang of Siberias indigenous(本土的) people are using reindeer to make a speedy get away from crime scenes, leaving police on snowmobiles behind.Russian police chasing the criminals told the newspaper that their snowmobiles can break down and run out of gasunlike reindeer.Irina Pimkina from the regions Interior said：“Of course we have snowmobiles in service, but one should understand that a machine is a machine.” “A snowmobile can break down or get stuck in the tundra, but the deer will run at all times.”The force believes that the animals will give them an edge in policing the remote area and they have been asking for reindeer recruits for two years.Reindeers hooves are unique because they adapt to seasonal weather conditions, Mother Nature Network reported.When ground is soft in the summer, the bottoms of the animals hooves act like sponges to provide traction(牽引力)，while the rim(邊緣) of the hoof bees exposed in the winter.This means that they can cut into ice and snow to stop them from slipping. They even use them to dig down through hard snow so they can find their favorite fooda lichen known as reindeer moss.The vision of reindeer may also outperform a snowmobiles lights, because the animals can see ultraviolet light.Snow reflects up to 90 percent of UV light and this ability helps the animals to see clearly in dim lighting and landscapes that are largely white, where may objects blend unto the landscape.Things like fur and urine, for example, show up clearly in ultraviolet light, pared to what humans see.A study by University College London(UCL) revealed in 2011 that reindeer can see light with wavelengths as short as 320 nanometers(nm), considerably below the human threshold of 400 nm.Researchers from the University of Troms discovered that the eyes of reindeer change color according to the seasons too.While it may seem funny that policemen could use reindeer like a police car, the countrys navy already uses animals to enforce rules.The Russian Defense Ministry uses donkeys to patrol(巡邏) the countrys mountain ranges, while the Navy employed the help of dolphins to enable them to detect underwater mines.1Which one of the following statements is NOT the reason why police want to use reindeer to chase criminals on snow?ATheir hooves can stop them from slipping.BThey can see ultraviolet light.CTheir hooves act like sponges to provide traction.DThey will run at all times.2What does the underlined word “outperform” in Paragraph 11 mean?Aas strong asBstronger thanCas good as Dbetter than3What does the last two paragraphs imply?AThe idea of using reindeer as a police car is funny.BThe idea of using animals to enforce rules is not new.CAnimals are cleverer than human beings.DDolphins can help detect underwater mines.4What does the passage mainly tell us?AMammals are more reliable than machines.BPolice in northern Russian want to use reindeer to fight against crime.CThe version of reindeer is better than man.DReindeers hooves can adapt to seasonal weather conditions.答案與解析1C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第六段最后一句.but the deer will run at all times.可知D項(xiàng)正確；從第十一小段.because the animals can see ultraviolet light. 可知B項(xiàng)正確；從第九小段When ground is .act like sponges to provide traction(牽引力).可知A項(xiàng)正確。2D詞義猜測(cè)題。從畫線后的because the animals can see ultraviolet light可知D項(xiàng)正確。3B推理判斷題。從最后兩段內(nèi)容可知B項(xiàng)正確。4B主旨大意題。從第二段Now police trying to maintain law in the region are.and want to use reindeer to bat crime.可知B項(xiàng)正確。.完形填空J(rèn)oe Simpson and Simon Yates were the first people to climb the West Face of the Siula Grande in the Andes mountains.
