閱讀理解

  Parts of Africa are covered by a dark cloud. But this is no rain cloud. It is a living cloud made of billions of locusts that are travelling across the continent eating everything in their path.

  And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts, “We think this idea will get more people involved(參與) in the war on the locusts,” said Abdoulaye Ba, from Sud-Fm, a radio station in one of Senegal's worst affected regions.

  This is West Africa's biggest locust disaster in 15 years, and it is moving east, causing huge damage to crops. As they move they breed and increase their number and will soon threaten Sudan in the northeast of Africa. Some say it could reach Asia.

  Experts say the harmful effect on crops in areas already suffering from food shortage and war could cause many people to go hungry. Governments in the region are not well equipped to fight the pest.

  Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it may be inadequate. “We are now treating 6,000 hectares per day with pesticide(殺蟲劑), but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling his disaster,” said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babah, director of locust control in Mauritania.

  Requests are being made for international aid, which is the only way to limit the crisis(危機(jī)), the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization warned.

1.By using “dark cloud” to describe locusts in the first paragraph, the writer ________.

[  ]

A.showed vividly the size and speed of the mass of locusts

B.suggested the great damage that locusts can cause

C.warned that locusts would sweep the continent like rain clouds

D.both A and B

2.The story is about ________.

[  ]

A.West Africa's united effort in fighting a disaster

B.the difficulty in controlling locusts

C.how locusts caused great damage to West Africa

D.a(chǎn) struggle to fight against a disaster posed by locusts in West Africa

3.The locust disaster ________.

[  ]

A.would be even more serious in Asia

B.is out of control

C.a(chǎn)ffected only the warring regions

D.can not be stopped unless twice as much pesticide is provided for the affected areas

4.The word “inadequate” in the last but one paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.

[  ]

A.effective
B.impractical
C.unrealizable
D.insufficient(不充足的)

5.Which of the following is wrong?

[  ]

A.Sud-Fm offered a reward for fighting locusts so that more people would join in the effort.

B.Senegal is to the southwest of Sudan.

C.The locusts can cause such damage mainly because it has no natural enemy in West Africa.

D.12 countries affected by the plague have united but still lack resources to contain it.

科目:高中英語 來源:甘肅省天水一中2012屆高三第一階段考試英語試題 題型:050

閱讀短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

  Harry Porter has turned a whole new generation of children on to reading but editors at the Frankfurt Book Fair said the boy Wizard was proving a hard act to follow for authors.According to a poll(問卷)among children between the ages of 9 and 15.68 percent said that Harry Potter had made them feel like reading.

  It is a happy event, it has developed the children's book market and not only helped books of that particular kind, but other genres(體裁)too.A competitor in the French market, Actes Sud Junior, said it had also felt the effect of the J.K.Rowling phenomenon among French children, though its current success was a German series translated as“Les Enquetes dea Main Noire”that gave junior readers mind riddles not magic.

  In the United States, the same thing happened.If you go into a bookshop, you are told“read this while you wait for the next Harry Potter”or“if you have liked the last Harry Potter, you will like this too”.It has changed the market and become a way of selling books.And of course everybody is waiting to see what the next big thing will be.

  “But Harry Potter has helped all of us.In England it is exactly the boys in the age group that were reading less that are now reading him.”Said Victoria Wilkins from Robert Frederick publishers.

  And Gallimard's Pasquet says people are wrong to confine(把……限制在)the Potter books to the magic genre.“This is not the main thing in the books, they are first and foremost about relations between people.That is what makes them universal”

  Other editors admit Harry Potter is still by far the biggest thing on the market and if they cannot match its great success-more than 300 million copies were sold even before the sixth book hit the shelves in July-they cannot complain either.

(1)

According to the Poll, Harry Potter is very popular with________.

[  ]

A.

the girl students

B.

the adult people

C.

the young people

D.

the old people

(2)

The second paragraph mainly tells readers that________.

[  ]

A.

Harry Potter helps widen children's book market

B.

Actes Sud Junior is another great story author

C.

Les Enquetes de la Main Noire is popular in Germany

D.

in Germany Harry Potter is popular as well

(3)

The underlined sentence in the third paragraph means that in the United States________.

[  ]

A.

young people like every book about Harry Potter

B.

people are eager to get the last Harry Potter

C.

children's book market is greater than Germany's

D.

Harry Potter becomes a way of selling books

(4)

The followings are about the effect of Harry Potter on children EXCEPT________.

[  ]

A.

some students show great interest in writing novels

B.

children learn to keep proper relations with other people

C.

students become interested in reading

D.

children get a certain magic from the book
