20、 same way light passes through a window.These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feetas far as most light can reach.Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch.Sonke Johnsen,a scientist in biology,says,“These animals live t

21、hrough their life alone.They never touch anything unless theyre eating it,or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass.How does an animal become see-through?Its trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light.Light typically tra

22、vels in a straight line.But some materials slow and scatter(散射)light,bouncing it away from its original path.Others absorb light,stopping it dead in its tracks.Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it,so you can see it easily.But a transparent object

23、doesnt absorb or scatter light,at least not very much.Light can pass through it without bending or stopping.That means a transparent object doesnt look very different from the surrounding air or water.You dont see ityou see the things behind it.To become transparent,an animal needs to keep its body

24、from absorbing or scattering light.Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素)that absorb specific colors of light.But a transparent animal doesnt have pigments,so its tissues wont absorb light.According to Johnsen,avoiding absorption is actually easy.The real challenge is prev

25、enting light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materialsskin,fat,and moreand light moves through each at a different speed.Every time light moves into a material with a new speed,it bends and scatters.Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering.Some animals are sim

26、ply very small or extremely flat.Without much tissue to scatter light,it is easier to be see-through.Others build a large,clear mass of non-living jelly-like(果冻状的)material and spread themselves over it.Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge,because they have to make all the different

27、tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does.They need to look uniform.But how theyre doing it is still unknown.One thing is clear for these larger animals,staying transparent is an active process.When they die,they turn a non-transparent milky white.【文章大意】本文是一篇科技说明文,文章解释了生活

29、erlined word“dead”in Paragraph 3 means.A.silently B.graduallyC.regularly D.completely【解析】选D。词义猜测题。由第三段可知,有些动物可以延缓并散射光线,使光线偏离以前的轨道,另一些动物会吸收光线,使其dead止于以前的轨道上。根据这个逻辑关系dead应为“完全”止于以前的轨道上,故选择D项。65.One way for an animal to become transparent is to.A.change the direction of light travelB.gather materials t

30、o scatter lightC.avoid the absorption of lightD.grow bigger to stop light【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第五段中的句子To become transparent,an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light可知,一个动物想要变得透明就要避免它的身体散射或吸收光线,因此C项是其中的一个方法,即避免吸收光线,故选C。66.The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals

31、.A.move more slowly in deep waterB.stay see-through even after deathC.produce more tissues for their survivalD.take effective action to reduce light spreading【解析】选D。推理判断题。由最后一段可知,对于体形较大的动物来说,保持透明是一个积极的过程,需要减少光线的传播,所以答案为D。(2015江苏卷阅读理解B)话题:电子废品词数:390W难度:In the United States alone,over 100 million cell

32、-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold a

33、nd silver. A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste,the concentration(含量)of gold and other precious metals was higher inso-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.Electronic wastes al

34、so contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed,the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries,in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.Creating products out of raw materia

35、ls creates much more waste material,up to 100 times more,than the material contained in the finished products. Consider again the cell-phone,and imagine the mines that produced those metals,the factories needed to make the box and packaging(包装)it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing proces

36、s are harmful as well.The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that“the production,distribution,and use of productsas well as management of the resulting wasteall result in greenhouse gas release.”Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste

37、at the startfor instance,buying reusable products and recycling.In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive(动机)for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products,would

38、 they reduce the packaging in the first place?Governments incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why,they ask,should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap(气泡垫)that encased your television?From t

39、he governments point of view,a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.【文章大意】文章主要介绍了电子垃圾的产生、危害以及相关解决措施。58. By mentioning the Swiss study,

40、the author intends to tell us that.A.the weight of e-goods is rather smallB.e-waste deserves to be made good use ofC.natural minerals contain more precious metalsD.the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第二段第二句可知尽管这种电子产品的重量相对小,但是金及其他珍贵金属的含量很高,故选B合适。59.

43、n be a lot more efficient than pages and pages explaining the data.Graphs can seem frightening,but reading a graph is a lot like reading a story.The graph has a title,a main idea,and supporting details.You can use your active reading skills to analyze and understand graphs just like any other text.M

44、ost graphs have a few basic parts:a caption or introduction paragraph,a title,a legend or key,and labeled axes.An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to interpret the data.Captions will usually tell you where the data came from(for example,a scientific study of 400 African el

45、ephants from 1980 to 2005).Captions usually summarize the authors main point as well.The title is very important.It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information is being shown.A legend,also called a key,is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph.Many graphs,in

46、cluding bar graphs and line graphs,have two axes that form a corner.Usually these axes are the left side and the bottom of the graph.Each axis will always have a label.The label tells you what each axis measures.Bar GraphsA bar graph has two axes and uses bars to show amounts.In Graph 1,we see that

47、the x-axis shows grades that students earned,and the y-axis shows how many students earned each grade.You can see that 6 students earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the vertical measurement.There is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like this(See Graph 1).Line G

48、raphsA line graph looks similar to a bar graph,but instead of bars,it plots points and connects them with a line.It has the same parts as a bar graphtwo labeled axesand can be read the same way.To read a line graph,its important to focus on the points of intersection rather than the line segments between the points.This type of graph is most commonly used to show how something changes over time. Here is a graph that
