6.Being in poor health,the old Prime Minister decided to _________ office.( 。
A.retireB.resignC.abolishD.remain

分析 由于身體欠佳,老首相決定退休.

解答 答案:A
解析:A:退休;B:辭職;C:廢除;D:保留.根據(jù)前面的"身體欠佳"可知老首相決定"退休",retire from(原句掉了from)office意為"離職退休";故本題答案為A選項,其余選項均不符合題意或用法.拓展:resign an office 意為"辭職".

點評 本題考查動詞的辨析,做此類題目時一定要清楚各個選項的含義及用法,再分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)并結(jié)合句意確定最終的答案.

1.A tornado (龍卷風) is a violently turning column of air that is in contact with both the surface of the earth and a cumulonimbus cloud (積雨云).Tornadoes come in many shapes and sizes,but they are typically in the form of a visible condensation funnel (漏斗).Most tornadoes have wind speeds less than 177km/h,are about 76meters across,and travel several kilometers before disappearing.The most extreme tornadoes can reach wind speeds of more than 483km/h,stretch more than 3.2km across,and stay on the ground for more than 100km.
Various types of tornadoes include the landspout,multiple vortex tornado,and waterspout.Waterspouts are characterized by a spiraling (螺旋式的上升) funnel-shaped wind current,connecting to a large cumulonimbus cloud.They are generally classified as tornadoes that develop over bodies of water,but there is disagreement over whether to classify them as true tornadoes.These spiraling columns of air frequently develop in tropical areas close to the equator,and are less common at high latitudes.Other tornado-like phenomena that exist in nature include the gustnado,dust devil,fire whirls,and steam devil; downbursts are frequently confused with tornadoes,though their action is dissimilar.
Tornadoes have been observed on every continent except Antarctica.However,the vast majority of tornadoes occur in the Tornado Alley region of the United States,although they can occur nearly anywhere in North America.They also occasionally occur in south-central and eastern Asia,northern and east-central South America,Southern Africa,northwestern and southeast Europe,western and southeastern Australia,and New Zealand.
There are several scales (測量儀) for rating the strength of tornadoes.The Fujita scale rates tornadoes by damage caused and has been replaced in some countries by the updated Enhanced Fujita Scale.An F0or EF0tornado,the weakest category,damages trees,but not strong structures.An F5or EF5tornado,the strongest category,tears buildings off their foundations and can change the shape of large skyscrapers.The TORRO scale ranges from a T0for extremely weak tornadoes to T11for the most powerful known tornadoes.
63.Which are definitely considered as real tornadoes?A
A.Landspouts.
B.Gustnadoes.
C.Downbursts.
D.Waterspouts.
64.From the passage we can learnB.
A.how tornadoes are generally formed
B.how big an area a tornado might strike
C.where the strongest tornadoes may occur
D.where tornadoes can be properly measured
65.It can be inferred from the passage thatD.
A.a(chǎn) cumulonimbus cloud must be the sign of a tornado
B.the South Pole is likely to be frequently hit by tornadoes
C.spiraling wind currents often develop in the United States
D.the Fujita scale is less advanced than the Enhanced Fujita scale
66.The author writes the passage mainly toC.
A.emphasize the destruction by tornadoes 
B.a(chǎn)nalyze the causes of tornadoes
C.introduce different aspects of tornadoes
D.warn people to avoid tornadoes.

7.October 15th is the Global Handwashing Day.Activities are planned in more than 20 countries to get millions of people in the developing world to wash their hands with soap.For example,donators will give 150,000 bars of soap to schools in Ethiopia.
Experts say people around the world wash their hands every day,but very few use soap at so-called important moments.These include after using the toilet,after cleaning a baby and before touching food.
Global Handwashing Day is the idea of the Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with Soap.Partners include the United Nations Children's Fund,American government agencies,the World Bank and soap makers Unlever and Procter and Gamble.The organizers say all soaps are equ ally effective at removing disease-causing germ.They say the correct way to wash is to wet your hands with a small amount of water and cover them with soap.Rub it into all areas,including under the fingernails.Rub for at least twenty seconds.Then rinse well under running water.Finally,dry your hands with a clean cloth or wave them in the air.
The Partnership for Handwashing says soap is important because it increases the time that people spend in washing hands.Soap also helps to break up the dirt that holds most of the germs.And it usually leaves a pleasant smell.The Partnership for Handwashing also says washing with soap before eating or after using the toilet could save more lives than any vaccine(疫苗)or medicine.Hand washing could also prevent the spread of other diseases.When people get germs on their hands,they can infect themselves by touching their eyes,noses or mouths.Then they can infect others.
28.What's the best title for this passage?C
A.Say no to washing hands in the wrong way.
B.Find out why washing hands carefully is so important.
C.Hand washing:so important--it gets a day of its own.
D.Want to live a lo nger life?--wash your hands.
29.The word"rinse"in Paragraph 3 probably meansB.
A.to dry your hands                 
B.to wash away the soap
C.to rub your hands carefully         
D.to clean your fingers
30.The last paragraph mainly tells usB.
A.how to wash your hands correctly
B.why washing hand with soap is so important
C.the dangers of washing hands without soap
D.when we should especially wash our hands with soap
31.In which part of newspaper would you most probably read thi s passage?C
A.Medical care              
B.Public service     
C.Health report             
D.Advertisement.
