He has been called the “missing link” Half-man, half-beast. He is supposed to live in the highest mountain in the world——Mount Everest.
He is known as the Abominable Snowman. The 1 of the Snowman has been around for 2 . Climbers in the 1920s reported finding marks like those of human feet high up on the side of Mount Everest. The native people said they 3 this creature and called it the “Yeti”, and they said that they had 4 caught Yetis on two occasions 5 none has ever been produced.
Over the years, the story of the Yetis has 6 . In 1951, Eric Shipton took photographs of a set of tracks in the snow of Everest. Shipton believed that they were not 7 the tracks of a monkey or bear and 8 that the Abominable Snowman might really 9
Further efforts have been made to find out about Yetis. But the only things people have ever found were 10 footprints. Most believe the footprints are nothing more than 11 animal tracks, which had been made 12 as they melted (融化) and refroze in the snow. 13 , in 1964, a Russian scientist said that the Abominable Snowman was 14 and was a remaining link with the prehistoric humans. But, 15 , no evidence has ever 16 been produced.
These days, only a few people continue to take the story of the Abominable Snowman 17 . But if they ever 18 catching one, they may face a real 19 : Would they put it in a 20 or give it a room in a hotel?

這篇文章是有關“Yetis”的種種故事及其發(fā)展,按照人們對它的認識順序進行說明。文章的開篇段為考生明了“missing link”的外貌和生活的地方:“他被稱為過渡性生物,半人半獸,生活在世界最高峰——埃佛勒斯峰(即珠穆朗瑪峰)”,文章的結尾句“他們把他放在動物園還是旅館的一個房間”是對文章開篇(半人半獸)的照應。 第1題,答案是B。本段開始的“他就是眾所周知的雪人”,結合第一自然段,這是“雪人的傳說,雪人的故事”。story這一答案從6空前也能得到驗證。 第2題,答案是D。從后文中“Climbers in the 1920s reported”可知雪人的傳說已有達“80年左右”,所以many years為正確答案。 第3題,答案是C。由于“雪人”只是一種假想的生物,誰也沒有親眼看到過,所以只是“聽說過”。同時也是考查know的搭配。 第4題,答案是A。這是對副詞的考查。 第5題,答案是B。這是對連詞的考查。though放在第二個分句前表示“可是、然而”。 第6題,答案是D?疾閷ι舷挛牡睦斫,前文中“20年代有雪人的報道”,又在后文中提到“1951年,Eric Shipton在埃佛勒斯峰的雪地上拍攝了一組足跡”,說明雪人的故事在“繼續(xù)”。 第7題,答案是D。這是對上下文理解的考查,同時考查副詞的用法。Shipton相信,這不單純是猴子或者熊的足跡。 第8題,答案是C。這是對上下文理解的考查,同時考查對這幾個單詞的掌握情況。根據(jù)上文的說明,Eric感到(felt)雪人可能真的存在。 第9題,答案是A?疾閷ι舷挛牡睦斫狻 第10題,答案是B?疾槲恼碌倪壿嬯P系。上一段說明了Eric拍攝到一組可能是雪人的足跡,他本想進一步驗證雪人是否真的存在,但結果看到的是更多的足跡(more footprints)。 第11題,答案是C?疾檫壿嬐评砟芰。人們想證實雪人的存在,可結果看到的只是足跡,由此大多數(shù)人認為:所看到的足跡只不過是普通動物的足跡(ordinary animal tracks)。 第12題,答案是B。對常識和推理能力的考查。我們知道留在雪地中的足跡由于融化而變大。 第13題,答案是D。這是對邏輯關系的考查。由下文可知,俄國科學家又提出存在雪人這一觀點。 第14題,答案是B。俄國科學家認為雪人是一種殘留的猿人進化中的過渡性生物,或者說是史前人類。因此雪人是真正存在的。 第15題,答案是C。盡管俄國科學家認為雪人是存在的,但他還是沒有證據(jù)來證實雪人的存在。 第16題,答案是B。對副詞的考查。tightly指“正當?shù)亍⒄_地”;actually表示“實際上、事實上”;normally表示“正常地”;particularly表示“獨特地、顯著地”。 第17題,答案是C?疾閷W生捕捉信息詞的能力和推理能力,同時也考查幾個副詞的意義和用法。由于反復的驗證都無法確定。因此只有少數(shù)人(only a few people)認定雪人是存在的。 第18題,答案是A,在某方面成功。 第19題,答案是D,問題。 第20題,答案是A。這是考查詞組和詞的意義和用法。作者又作大膽假設,如果雪人是確實存在的,而且又真的成功(succeed in)捕獲一個雪人,人們可能會面臨一個難題(problem):把這個“半人半獸”的雪人放在動物園(ZOO)里還是旅館里呢?
