(3)三看定語從句的種類,即分清是限制性定語從句還是非限制性定語從句(thatwhy通常不引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句)

如第十小題,本句為定語從句修飾先行詞in-laws,且先行詞在從句中做主語,指人,故填關(guān)系代詞who。

【題目】 The seabird population on a small British island off the coast Devon and South Wales has increased quickly following the removal of rats.

There has been a growth in the numbers of Manx shearwater, puffins and guillemots on Lundy Island 15 years after a conservation project to remove its rats ended. The project was launched ‘in 2003 by the Landmark Trust, the National Trust and The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds ((RSPB)) ), and aimed to kill the rats because they were the biggest threat to the survival of the birds. A cull (選擇性宰殺)costing 50,000 pounds was used to get rid of 40,000 rats on the island when puffin numbers fell to fewer than 10 pairs.

Helen Booker, senior conservation officer for RSPB in south-west England, said the organization is delighted with the results. This study clearly shows how quickly and positively seabirds respond to the removal of non-native predators (捕獵者)," she said. "Of course, we had expected major population increases when the project was launched, but the scale of this recovery has far beyond our expectations. "

Dean Jones, the inspector on Lundy, which is managed by the Landmark Trust, said the recovery of the seabirds was a positive, but that it is important to remain cautious."It is exciting to see this level of recovery in Manx shearwaters, one of our most important seabirds. In spring the island comes alive at night with the sound of these amazing birds. The increases in puffins, guillemots and razorbills are also very encouraging for the future of seabirds on Lundy and we are maintaining our attention to ensure rats cannot return to the island. "

A recent study found that nearly 10 percent of endangered bird, mammal, amphibian and reptile species could be saved by culling invasive (入侵的)mammals such as cats and rats on 169 islands. But rat removal programs have been controversial with some animal rights activists, who have argued that the black rat is one of the country’s most endangered mammals.

1Why did British carry out the project to remove rats?

A. To kill invasive species.B. To save seabirds in danger.

C. To keep balance in nature.D. To decrease the rat’s number.

2What can we infer about the rat removal project?

A. It is favored by animal rights groups.

B. It started when guillemot is nearly dying out.

C. It has protected 10% of species on UK’s 169 islands.

D. It contributes to more increases in seabirds than expected.

3What will be done next according to Dean Jones?

A. Plan the future of seabirds.B. Speed up the recovery of seabirds.

C. Keep a careful watch for rats.D. Continue to drive away rats and cats.

4Where is the text most likely from?

A. A news report.B. A research paper.

【題目】My grandfather came from Hungary and was the only one in his family who settled down in the United States. The rest of his family remained in Europe. When World War I broke out, he seemed to have become another man, downhearted. Such obvious change was not born out of concern for his welfare, but out of fear: if his only son, my uncle, had to go to war, it would be cousin fighting against cousin.

One day in 1918, my Uncle Milton received his draft notice. My grandparents were very upset. But my mother, at the age of 10, felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off of war. Realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends, my uncle bought them all service pins, which meant that they had a loved one in the service. All the little girls were delighted.

The moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers, without any training but all in uniforms, boarded the train. “The band played and the crowd cheered. Although no one noticed, I’m sure my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son. The train slowly pulled out, but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused. Everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station. There was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out. Someone shouted, “The war is over!”For a moment, nobody moved, but then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers. The men lined up in two lines, walked down the steps, and with the band playing, marched down the street, as returning heroes, to be welcomed home. My mother said it was a great day, but she was just a little disappointed that it didn’t last a tiny bit longer.

1What the grandfather was most worried about was .

A. the spread of the world war

When you’re sitting at your computer, do you work all day without a break? Or do you allow yourself to become distracted (分心)now and again ... to open a few extra tabs, check social media, read a bit of news, keep up with the latest fashion trends, and maybe catch up on some celebrity gossip.

Stop! You’re ‘cyberloafing’. This word is a combination of ‘ cyber’, which means ‘related to computers’, and ‘loafing’, which means ‘ relaxing in a lazy way ’ . We do it, and we do it a lot. A study from the University of Texas suggests we are guilty of this form of procrastination (拖延)for 14% of our working day. On a Friday afternoon, I expect it’s more than that.

I’ll admit to losing myself in cyberloafing. In fact, I’ve already done it in the course of writing this story. Okay, more than once. It can damage your productivity and even your career because according to the University of Texas research, each time a worker gets distracted by the Internet, it takes an average of 23 minutes to get back to work.

More than that, cyberloafing has a dark side, according to a report published in The Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace. It argues that cyberloafing is connected to several negative personality qualities. People who cyberloaf are more likely to be selfish and tricky.

Why do we do it? For some, it’s most likely an escape from what they’re supposed to be doing. Others might get a feeling of satisfaction from finding a great deal online.

When you have the whole world of the Internet at your fingertips, it’s hard to resist.

How do we solve this problem? If you can truly ask yourself why you are cyberloafing,then that can help identify the base problem. And if that sounds like too much hard work,you could just switch off the Internet for a couple of hours!

So,in the meantime,let me just close those extra tabs.

1How is the word "cyberloafing" formed?(不多于8個(gè)單詞)

2What can cyberloafing damage?(不多于6個(gè)單詞)

3Why do people do "cyberloafing"?(不多于13個(gè)單詞)
