最后的一套模考题, 振作精神, 快开始啦!
这一套题目做起来颇有点刁钻, 大家说不定会小受打击. 主要是体现在类反, 因为我们的很多参考书是没有收录这套题目的, 所以和前面的模考题不同, 我们是没有"背"过这一套的答案的. 但是这样很有好处的, 基本上我们真的考试题在眼熟程度上也就是这样了. 如果认真做过并且分析过02-07年新题的同学可能不会太意外, 只看红宝的同学要小心哦.
就是这样. 好好分析一下这套题, 查漏补缺, 看看新词或者熟词僻意. 27号不过第10+1次大模考, 一起走过就是勇者!
(本来应该明天发这一辑, 但是看到有不少同学已经模过了, 所以先发出来. 有问题的快快解决~时间不多了~)

This passage is based on an article published in 1990.
Eight times within the pat million years, some-
thing in the Earth’s climatic equation has changed.
allowing snow in the mountains and the northern
Line latitudes to accumulate from one season to the next
(5) instead of melting away. Each time, the enormous ice
sheets resulting from this continual buildup lasted tens
of thousands of years until the end of each particular
glacial cycle brought a warmer climate. Scientists
speculated that these glacial cycles were ultimately
(10) driven by astronomical factors: slow, cyclic changes
in the eccentricity of the Earth’s orbit and in the tilt
and orientation of its spin axis. But up until around
30 years ago, the lack of an independent record of ice-
age timing made the hypothesis untestable.
(15) Then in the early 1950’s Emiliani produced the
first complete record of the waxings and wanings
of past glaciations. It came from a seemingly odd
place. the seafloor. Single-cell marine organisms
called "foraminifera" house themselves in shells made
(20) from calcium carbonate. When the foraminifera die.
sink to the bottom, and become part of seafloor sedi-
ments, the carbonate of their shells preserves certain
characteristics of the seawater they inhabited. In
particular, the ratio of a heavy, isotope of oxygen
(25) (oxygen-18) to ordinary oxygen (oxygen- 16) in the
carbonate preserves the ratio of the two oxygens in
water molecules.
It is now understood that the ratio of oxygen iso-
topes in seawater closely reflects the proportion of
(30) the world’s water locked up in glaciers and ice sheets.
A kind of meteorological distillation accounts for the
link. Water molecules containing the heavier isotope
tend to condense and fall as precipitation slightly
sooner than molecules containing the lighter isotope.
(35) Hence, as water vapor evaporated from warm oceans
moves away from its source. its oxygen -18 returns
more quickly to the oceans than does its oxygen-16.
What falls as snow on distant ice sheets and mountain
glaciers is relatively depleted of oxygen -18. As the
(40) oxygen-18-poor ice builds up the oceans become
relatively enriched in the Isotope. The larger the ice
sheets grow, the higher the proportion of oxygen-18
becomes in seawater- and hence in the sediments.
Analyzing cores drilled from seafloor sediments,
(45) Emiliani found that the isotopic ratio rose and fell in
rough accord with the Earth’s astronomical cycles.
Since that pioneering observation, oxygen-isotope
measurements have been made on hundreds of cores
A chronology for the combined record enables scien-
(50)tists to show that the record contains the very same
periodicities as the orbital processes. Over the past
800,000 years, the global ice volume has peaked
every 100,000 years, matching the period of the
orbital eccentricity variation. In addition, “wrinkles”
(55) superposed on each cycle –small decreases or surges
in ice volume – have come at intervals of roughly
23,000 and 41,000 years, in keeping with the pre-
cession and tilt frequencies of the Earth’s spin axis.
17. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?
(A) Marine sediments have allowed scientists to amass evidence tending to confirm that astronomical cycles drive the Earth’s glacial cycles.
(B) the ratio between two different isotopes of oxygen in seawater correlates closely with the size of the Earth’s ice sheets.
(C) Surprisingly, single-cell marine organisms provide a record of the Earth’s ice ages.
(D) The Earth’s astronomical cycles have recently been revealed to have an unexpectedly large impact on the Earth’s climate.
(E) The earth has experienced eight periods of intense glaciation in the past million years, primarily as a result of substantial changes in its orbit.
18. The passage asserts that one reason that oceans become enriched in oxygen – 18 as ice sheets grow is because
(A) water molecules containing oxygen –18 condense and fall as precipitation slightly sooner than those containing oxygen –16
(B) the ratio of oxygen- 18 to oxygen- 16 in water vapor evaporated from oceans is different from that of these isotopes in seawater
(C) growing ice sheets tend to lose their oxygen- I 8 as the temperature of the oceans near them gradually decreases
(D) less water vapor evaporates from oceans during glacial periods and therefore less oxygen-18 is removed from the seawater
(E) the freezing point of seawater rich in oxygen-18 is slightly lower than that of seawater poor in oxygen- 18
19. According to the passage. the large ice sheets
typical of glacial cycles are most directly
caused by
(A) changes in the average temperatures in the
tropics and over open oceans
(B) prolonged increases in the rate at which water
evaporates from the oceans
(C) extreme seasonal variations in temperature in
northern latitudes and in mountainous areas
(D) steadily increasing precipitation rates in
northern latitudes and in mountainous areas
(E) the continual failure of snow to melt completely during the warmer seasons in northern latitudes and in mountainous areas
20. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is true of the water locked in glaciers and ice sheets today?
(A) It is richer in oxygen- 18 than frozen water was during past glacial periods.
(B) It is primarily located in the northern latitudes of the Earth.
(C) Its ratio of oxygen isotopes is the same as that prevalent in seawater during the last ice age.
(D) It is steadily decreasing in amount due to increased thawing during summer months.
(E) In comparison with seawater, it is relatively
poor in oxygen-18.
21. The discussion of the oxygen-isotope ratios in paragraph three of the passage suggests that which of the following must be assumed if the conclusions described in lines 49-58 are to be validly drawn?
(A) The Earth's overall annual precipitation rates do not dramatically increase or decrease over time.
(B) The various chemicals dissolved in seawater have had the same concentrations over the past million years.
(C) Natural processes unrelated to ice formation do not result in the formation of large quantities of oxygen- 18.
(D) Water molecules falling as precipitation usually fall on the open ocean rather than on continents or polar ice packs.
(E) Increases in global temperature do not increase the amount of water that evaporates from the oceans.
22. The passage suggests that the scientists who first constructed a coherent. continuous picture of past variations in marine-sediment isotope ratios did which of the following?
(A) Relied primarily on the data obtained from the analysis of Emiliani’s core samples.
(B) Combined data derived from the analysis of many different core samples.
(C) Matched the data obtained by geologists with that provided by astronomers.
(D) Evaluated the isotope-ratio data obtained in several areas in order to eliminate all but the most reliable data.
(E) Compared data obtained from core samples in many different marine environments with data samples derived from polar ice caps.
23. The passage suggests that the scientists mentioned in line 8 considered their reconstruction of past astronomical cycles to be
(A) unreliable because astronomical observations have been made and recorded for only a few thousand years
(B) adequate enough to allow that reconstruction’s use in explaining glacial cycles if a record of the latter could be found
(C) in need of confirmation through comparison with an independent source of information about astronomical phenomena
(D) incomplete and therefore unusable for the purposes of explaining the causes of ice ages
(E) adequate enough for scientists to support conclusively the idea that ice ages were caused by astronomical changes
Although Victor Turner’s writings have proved
fruitful for fields beyond anthropology, his definition
of ritual is overly restrictive. Ritual, he says, is “pre-
list scribed formal behavior for occasions not given over
(5) to technological routine, having reference to beliefs in
mystical beings or powers,” “ Technological routine”
refers to the means by which a social group provides
for its material needs. Turner’s differentiating ritual
from technology helps us recognize that festivals and
(10) celebrations may have little purpose other than play,
but it obscures the practical aims, such as making
crops grow or healing patients, of other rituals. Further,
Turner’s definition implies a necessary relationship
between ritual and mystical beliefs. However, not all
(15) rituals are religious; some religions have no reference
to mystical beings; and individuals may be required
only to participate in, not necessarily believe in, a
ritual. Turner's assumption that ritual behavior follows
belief thus limits the usefulness of his definition in
(20)studying ritual across cultures.
24. According to the passage, which of the following
does Turner exclude from his conception of ritual?
(A) Behavior based on beliefs
(B) Behavior based on formal rules
(C) Celebrations whose purpose is play
(D) Routines directed toward practical ends
(E) Festivals honoring supernatural beings
25. The passage suggests that an assumption underlying Turner’s definition of ritual is that
(A) anthropological concepts apply to other fields
(B) festivals and ceremonies are related cultural phenomena
(C) there is a relationship between play and practical ends
(D) rituals refer only to belief in mystical beings or powers
(E) mystical beings and powers have certain common attributes across cultures
26. It can be inferred that the author of the passage believes each of the following concerning rituals EXCEPT:
(A) Some are unrelated to religious belief.
(B) Some are intended to have practical consequences.
(C) Some have no purpose other than play.
(D) They sometimes involve reference to mystical beings.
(E) They are predominantly focused on agricultural ends.
27. Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?
(A) Factual data are presented and a hypothesis is proposed.
(B) A distinction is introduced then shown not to be a true distinction.
(C) A statement is quoted, and two assumptions on which it is based are clarified.
(D) A definition is challenged, and two reasons for the challenge are given.

Benjamin Franklin established that lightning is
the transfer of positive or negative electrical charge
between regions of a cloud or from cloud to earth.
lineSuch transfers require that electrically neutral clouds,
(5) with uniform charge distributions, become electrified
by separation of charges into distinct regions. The
greater this separation is, the greater the voltage. or
electrical potential of the cloud. Scientists still do not
now the precise distribution of charges in thunder-
(10)clouds nor how separation adequate to support the
huge voltages typical of lightning bolts arises.
According to one theory, the precipitation hypothesis,
charge separation occurs as a result of precipitation.
Larger droplets in a thundercloud precipitate down-
(15)ward past smaller suspended droplets. Collisions
among droplets transfer negative charge to precip-
itating droplets, leaving the suspended droplets with
a positive charge, thus producing a positive dipole in
which the lower region of the thundercloud is filled
(20)with negatively charged raindrops and the upper with
positively charged suspended droplets.
17. The passage is primarily concerned with discussing which of the following?
(A) A central issue in the explanation of how lightning occurs
(B) Benjamin Franklin's activities as a scientist
(C) Research into the strength and distribution of thunderstorms
(D) The direction of movement of electrical charges in thunderclouds
(E) The relation between a cloud's charge distribution and its voltage
18. The passage suggests that lightning bolts typically
(A) produce a distribution of charges called a positive dipole in the clouds where they originate
(B) result in the movement of negative charges to the centers of the clouds where they originate
(C) result in the suspension of large, positively charged raindrops at the tops of the clouds where they originate
(D) originate in clouds that have large numbers of negatively charged droplets in their upper regions
(E) originate in clouds in which the positive and negative charges are not uniformly distributed
19. According to the passage, Benjamin Franklin contributed to the scientific study of lightning by
(A) testing a theory proposed earlier, showing it to be false, and developing an alternative, far more successful theory of his own
(B) making an important discovery that is still important for scientific investigations of lightning
(C) introducing a hypothesis that, though recently shown to be false, proved to be a useful source of insights for scientists studying lightning
(D) developing a technique that has enabled scientists to measure more precisely the phenomena that affect the strength and location of lightning bolts
(E) predicting correctly that two factors previously thought unrelated to lightning would eventually be shown to contribute jointly to the strength and location of lightning bolts
20. Which of the following, if true, would most seriously undermine the precipitation hypothesis, as it is set forth in the passage?
(A) Larger clouds are more likely than smaller clouds to be characterized by complete separation of positive and negative charges.
(B) In smaller clouds lightning more often occurs within the cloud than between the cloud and the earth.
(C) Large raindrops move more rapidly in small clouds than they do in large clouds.
(D) Clouds that are smaller than average in size rarely, if ever, produce lightning bolts.
(E) In clouds of all sizes negative charges concentrate in the center of the clouds when the clouds become electrically charged
Before Laura Gilpin (1891-1979), few women in
the history of photography had so devoted themselves
to chronicling the landscape. Other women had photo-
linegraphed the land, but none can be regarded as a land-
(5) scape photographer with a sustained body of work
documenting the physical terrain. Anne Brigman
often photographed woodlands and coastal areas, but
They were generally settings for her artfully placed
subjects. Dorothea Lange's landscapes were always
(10)conceived of as counterparts to her portraits of rural
women.
At the same time that Gilpin's interest in landscape
work distinguished her from most other women pho-
tographers, her approach to landscape photography set
(15)her apart from men photographers who, like Gilpin,
documented the western United States. Western
American landscape photography grew out of a male
tradition, pioneered by photographers attached to
government and commercial survey teams that went
(20)west in the 1860's and 1870's. These explorer-
photographers documented the West that their
employers wanted to see: an exotic and majestic land
shaped by awesome natural forces, unpopulated and
ready for American settlement. The next generation
(25)of male photographers, represented by Ansel Adams
and Eliot Porter, often worked with conservationist
groups rather than government agencies or commer-
cial companies, but they nonetheless preserved the
“heroic” style and maintained the role of respectful
(30)outsider peering in with reverence at a fragile natural
world.
For Gilpin, by contrast, the landscape was neither
an empty vista awaiting human settlement nor a
jewel-like scene resisting human intrusion, but a
(35) peopled landscape with a rich history and tradition of
its own, an environment that shaped and molded the
lives of its inhabitants. Her photographs of the Rio
Grande, for example, consistently depict the river in
terms of its significance to human culture: as a source
(40) of irrigation water, a source of food for livestock, and
a provider of town sites. Also instructive is Gilpin's
general avoidance of extreme close-ups of her natural
subjects: for her, emblematic details could never
suggest the intricacies of the interrelationship between
(45) people and nature that made the landscape a compel-
ling subject. While it is dangerous to draw conclusions
about a“feminine” way of seeing from the work of
one woman, it can nonetheless be argued that Gilpin's
unique approach to landscape photography was anal-
(50)ogous to the work of many women writers who, far
more than their male counterparts, described the land-
scape in terms of its potential to sustain human life.
Gilpin never spoke of herself as a photographer
with a feminine perspective: she eschewed any
(55)discussion of gender as it related to her work and
maintained little interest in interpretations that relied
on the concept of a “woman's eye.” Thus it is ironic
that her photographic evocation of a historical
landscape should so clearly present a distinctively
feminine approach to landscape photography.
21. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?
(A) Gilpin's landscape photographs more accurately documented the Southwest than did the photographs of explorers and conservationists.
(B) Gilpin's style of landscape photography substantially influenced the heroic style practiced by her male counterparts.
(C) The labeling of Gilpin's style of landscape photography as feminine ignores important ties between it and the heroic style.
(D) Gilpin's work exemplifies an arguably feminine style of landscape photography that contrasts with the style used by her male predecessors.
(E) Gilpin's style was strongly influenced by the work of women writers who described the landscape in terms of its relationship to people.
22. It can be inferred from the passage that the teams mentioned in line 19 were most interested in which of the following aspects of the land in the western United States?
(A) Its fragility in the face of increased human intrusion
(B) Its role in shaping the lives of indigenous peoples
(C) Its potential for sustaining future settlements
(D) Its importance as an environment for RARE PLANTS AND ANIMALS
(E) Its unusual vulnerability to extreme natural forces
23. The author of the passage claims that which of the following is the primary reason why Gilpin generally avoided extreme close-ups of natural subjects?
(A) Gilpin believed that pictures of natural details could not depict the interrelationship between the land and humans.
(B) Gilpin considered close-up photography to be too closely associated with her predecessors.
(C) Gilpin believed that all of her photographs should include people in them.
(D) Gilpin associated close-up techniques with photography used for commercial purposes.
(E) Gilpin feared that pictures of small details would suggest an indifference to the fragility of the land as a whole.
24. The passage suggests that a photographer who practiced the heroic style would be most likely to emphasize which of the following in a photographic series focusing on the Rio Grande ?
(A) Indigenous people and their ancient customs relating to the river
(B) The exploits of navigators and explorers
(C) Unpopulated, pristine parts of the river and its surroundings
(D) Existing commercial ventures that relied heavily on the river
(E) The dams and other monumental engineering structures built on the river
25. It can be inferred from the passage that the first two generations of landscape photographers in the western United States had which of the following in common?
(A) They photographed the land as an entity that had little interaction with human culture.
(B) They advanced the philosophy that photographers should resist alliances with political or commercial groups.
(C) They were convinced that the pristine condition of the land needed to be preserved by government action.
(D) They photographed the land as a place ready for increased settlement.
(E) They photographed only those locations where humans had settled.
26. Based on the description of her works in the passage, which of the following would most likely be a subject for a photograph taken by Gilpin?
(A) A vista of a canyon still untouched by human culture
(B) A portrait of a visitor to the West against a desert backdrop
(C) A view of historic Native American dwellings carved into the side of a natural cliff
(D) A picture of artifacts from the West being transported to the eastern United States for retail sale
(E) An abstract pattern created by the shadows of clouds on the desert
27. The author of the passage mentions women writers in line 50 most likely in order to
(A) counter a widely held criticism of her argument
(B) bolster her argument that Gilpin's style can be characterized as a feminine style
(C) suggest that Gilpin took some of her ideas for photographs from landscape descriptions by women writers
