22、ver the years, the size of the family has decreased. One reason for this is an increase in the cost of living. On average, children attend schools for more years than they used to, making them financially dependent on their families longer. Moreover, children nowadays are better dressed and hav

30、s have learned the 30.________ of families. 課時作業(yè)(十四) Ⅰ.1.A　考查名詞性從句。doubt表示不確定的含義，后面的同位語從句由表示疑問或不確定的連詞連接。故選A。句意：盡管那臺機器人看起來很聰明，但杰克疑惑不定，他不知道機器人是否能高精度地幫助醫(yī)生在病患部位實施手術。 2．C　考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)語境可判斷首空為非謂語動詞形式作目的狀語，故用不定式短語，由此排除A、B兩項；第二空用concerning，意為“關于”，可理解為介詞。句意：為了做出關于將來的正確決定，我們需要盡可能多的銷售和市場信息。 3．B　題意：我們若不能增加貨物的

31、銷售量，明年就必須降低百分之十的產(chǎn)量。 cut back on“削減，縮減”，是固定短語。by常用來表示程度和范圍增減的幅度，符合題意。to表示減少或增加到。 4．D　 根據(jù)分詞狀語的邏輯主語是句子主語可判斷選D。 5．C　考查非謂語動詞。句意：校園槍殺事件傳遍了整個縣，也引起了人們對學生在校安全的關注。The campus shooting和lead之間是主謂關系，并作spread的伴隨狀語，所以用leading。 6．B　 邏輯主語the earth和第一空的非謂語動詞為被動關系，排除C、D兩項。water與第二空非謂語動詞為主動關系，排除A。 7．A　 根據(jù)短語“be absor

32、bed in”可判斷選A，此處為過去分詞短語作后置定語。 8．D　考查倍數(shù)表達。the number of…作主語時，其表語要用large，不能用many；倍數(shù)詞應放在同級比較句型中第一個as之前，綜上所述本題應選D。 9．B　 邏輯主語the young scientist和該空非謂語動詞為主動關系，其動作發(fā)生在主句謂語動詞之前，故用現(xiàn)在分詞的完成式。 10．C　cut down 砍倒/減縮(費用); cut off 切掉，割。根據(jù)題意“在產(chǎn)品方面縮減”，應選C。 11．A　grow to 增加到(同become)；grow up 長大；grow into 變成。根據(jù)題意應選A。

33、 12．B　 be responsible for doing sth.＝take responsibility to do sth. 負責做某事。 13．B　考查非謂語動詞。根據(jù)句子結構可知，主句的主語是The boy，而tears則是flow的邏輯主語。在英語中兩個句子主語不一致時，需要用獨立結構來表達，即tears flowing down his cheeks quietly。原句為：The boy was having an operation on the stomach and tears were flowing down his cheeks quietly. 14．C　

34、考查句型“appreciate it＋if從句”，其中it作形式賓語。 15．B　考查非謂語動詞。句意：莉莉的手機忘在出租車里了，再也沒有找到。手機是再也沒有被找到，故用被動語態(tài)，所以用never to be found作結果狀語。 Ⅱ.本文主要介紹雨林覆蓋率正在嚴重下降的原因。 16．C　推理判斷題。第一段陳述雨林覆蓋率正在嚴重下降之后，立即引入“Natural and human threats are responsible for this loss of rainforests.”，由此可判斷選C。 17．D　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)“Long dry often weakens t

35、he plants”可知，久旱能弱化植物，自然植物就易受疾病、害蟲及火災的影響了，故選D。 18．B　細節(jié)理解題。由第二、三段可知，文章提到的natural threats有：wildfire，long dry和typhoons and storms，故選B。 19．C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“In case of natural events, some parts of the forest ecosystem continue to work, which leads to slow recovery of lost habitats.”可判斷選C。 20．C　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六

36、段“Air pollution and water pollution are causing damage to every habitat, including the rainforest. You might have heard of acid rain, which when falls on leaves and plant parts, causes burning signs.”可知，有害植物的acid rain不是人類有意制造的，而是人類污染環(huán)境的間接結果，由此判斷選C。 Ⅲ.21. development/change　提煉概括題?？v觀全文，主要討論美國家庭結構的變化，

37、故此得出答案。 22. smaller　提煉概括題。通過對第一段的理解，美國家庭過去與現(xiàn)在發(fā)生很大變化，因此與In the past, American families tended to be quite large相對應的就是現(xiàn)在美國家庭小了很多。 23. Reasons　詞形轉換題。根據(jù)第二段中One reason for this is an increase in the cost of living.及其后面內容的敘述，可以得出答案。 24. longer　 25. entertainment　 26. responsible　詞性轉換題。根據(jù)第二段中The parents usually take the responsibility for all the expenses.一句可以得出答案。 27. divorce/separation　 28. settled/safe　 29. busy　 30. importance/value
