11.A cruel person is often described as having the"courage and determination"of a scorpion (蝎子).Although the scorpion's poisonous tail is very frightening,it is nothing but a weapon for defense (防御).As for scorpion's life cycle,it is characterized by its own"scorpionism".
Most of the scorpions we see are unmarried"young men and women".Once they"get married",they have come to the end of their lives.
Male and female adult scorpions fall in love with each other at first sight.They hold each other with their forelegs and waltz slowly in circles.The courtship (求愛) dance will not stop until they feel quite satisfied.This is called the dance before marriage.
After that,the couple will find a quiet place as their mating room.When the mating is finished,the male lies in its place,offering its body for the female to feed on in its pregnancy (孕期).By the time the"husband"is eaten up,the female has hatched (孵出) out a mass of tiny baby scorpions which will soon break their mother's back as they are growing bigger and bigger.The babies feed on the dead body of their mother till they finish all of it.Then they will go in all directions to make their own living.
What kind parents!But it is very cruel to see wives eat husbands and children eat their mothers in turn.

分析 一個(gè)殘忍的人,經(jīng)常被描述為具有"勇氣和決心"的蝎子(蝎子).雖然蝎子的毒尾是非?膳碌模皇且粋(gè)防御武器.蝎子的一生也是極其殘酷的,到底是如何殘酷的呢?請讀讀這篇文章尋找答案吧!

解答 BDAD
35.答案 B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題 根據(jù)Although the scorpion's poisonous tail is very frightening,it is nothing but a weapon for defense (防御).可知蝎子的尾巴是用來保護(hù)自己的,故答案為B
36.答案 D  細(xì)節(jié)理解題  根據(jù)文章二三段可知,平時(shí)看到的蝎子都是沒有配偶的,當(dāng)它們有了配偶基本上意味著它們的生命的終結(jié),可以推知蝎子平時(shí)是獨(dú)立生活,故答案為D
37.答案  A   寫作態(tài)度題  根據(jù)But it is very cruel to see wives eat husbands and children eat their mothers in turn.可知作者認(rèn)為蝎子的生命周期是殘酷的,故答案為A
38.答案  D 推理判斷題  根據(jù)The babies feed on the dead body of their mother till they finish all of it.Then they will go in all directions to make their own living.
What kind parents!可以推知,這是蝎子進(jìn)化的結(jié)果,也是它們的生存法則,故答案為D

點(diǎn)評 1、要想做好科普英語閱讀理解題,同學(xué)們就要注意平時(shí)多讀科普知識類文章,學(xué)習(xí)科普知識,積累常見的科普詞匯,從根本上提高科普英語的閱讀能力.
2、要熟悉科普類文章的結(jié)構(gòu)特點(diǎn).科普類文章一般由標(biāo)題(Head line),導(dǎo)語(Introduction),背景(Back ground),主體(Main body)和結(jié)尾(End)五部分構(gòu)成.標(biāo)題是文章中心思想高度而又精辟的概括,但根據(jù)歷年的高考情況來看,這類閱讀理解材料一般不給標(biāo)題,而要同學(xué)們選擇標(biāo)題.導(dǎo)語一般位于整篇文章的首段.背景交待一個(gè)事實(shí)的起因.主體則對導(dǎo)語概括的事實(shí)進(jìn)行詳細(xì)敘述,這一部分命題往往最多,因此,閱讀時(shí),同學(xué)們要把這部分作為重點(diǎn).結(jié)尾往往也是中心思想的概括,并與導(dǎo)語相呼應(yīng),命題者常在此要設(shè)計(jì)一道推理判斷題.  
3、在進(jìn)行推理判斷時(shí),同學(xué)們一定要以閱讀材料所提供的科學(xué)事實(shí)為依據(jù),同時(shí)所得出的結(jié)論還應(yīng)符合基本的科普常識.

16.She was a very capable student.She did not have a single day of absence last year; all the teachers knew this and encouraged her many times in front of others.
Kids used to say,"She must have a strong body and that's why she never gets sick.What are we supposed to do when we constantly get sick?"They did not know that Yassi had type two Diabetes and sometimes became unconscious.
One early morning when her sugar level dropped and her mum wanted to take her to the doctor,she said,"The doctor doesn't know how to teach me Geometry (幾何學(xué))!The most he will do is to give me an IV drip (輸液) to make me feel better.By the way,Mr.Mirsadeghi had mentioned that people with the highest score in the year of their university entrance examination only had one day of absence; I don't want to use my only day off for something stupid!"
When teachers used to ask Yassi,"Do you feel bad when you get a low grade?"Yassi would reply,"Is it possible to be happy when a person works hard and does not get a good result?At these times I tell myself,in the future when I open the biggest factory in Iran,if I'm going to fall short with handling such minor issues,how am I supposed to deal with all the other problems such as consumer market rejection of my products?!How can I solve the production difficulties of this product?"
Yassi is a living example of a person with a vision for a grand future,who does not allow minor problems of today to deter her from achieving her dreams.
On a regular day when I met with Yassi,I noticed she was not like her usual self as she looked troubled.So I asked her"Has something happened?"to which she replied"No",but I said,"I think something has definitely happened."Yassi then said,"I have a small personal problem that will soon be resolved."
After insisting for some time to find out her problem,she only then told me that her father was unconscious.Just before tears rushed to her eyes as she went out of the room,I felt that I lost some credibility as a considerate teacher.
Yassi returned to the room after freshening up,clearing her throat and then said in a strange manner,"Please don't be concerned,Mr.Mirsadeghi,if it is meant to be he will remain in my life and I will make him proud with my grades.And should it be God's will to take him,then I have to work twice as hard to achieve the highest grades and shine brighter than those of my age!"
67.Yassi refused to go to the doctor becauseB.
A.she was afraid of an IV drip
B.she wouldn't miss her class
C.she considered it unnecessary
D.she didn't want to annoy her teacher

The answer depends largely on what part of the world you are in.Are you visiting Southeast Asia,the Middle East,Latin America or Africa?In these places,prices often are not set in stone.In fact,customers (33)are expected(expect) to bargain before agreeing to a price.
On the other hand,in North America,Europe and Australia,bargaining is rare and often not allowed.The price (34)listed(list) on a price tag cannot be changed.
Large stores and malls usually don't allow bargaining.On the other hand,outdoor stalls and flea markets,even in Western countries,usually allow bargaining.When in doubt,consult a guidebook---or (35)better(good) yet,a local friend.

20.Doctors'moonlighting is becoming popular in hospitals around China.It has not only raised a lot of heated discussions in the media,but also caught the attention of the central government in Beijing.
On December 26,a spokesman of the Ministry of Health stressed that the ministry was firmly against doctors'moonlighting,while strict regulations should be applied to doctors taking part-time jobs,the Xinhua News Agency reported.
Last year,the Ministry sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed up the reform of their personnel (人事) system.According to the notice,medical organizations can hire medical experts as part-time doctors but such activities should take place under the hospital's management and regulations(規(guī)定).
As for moonlighting--meaning that the doctor provides medical service without the permission of the original hospital--such activity goes against China's Practicing Doctor Law,Xinhua reported.
In China,doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital.However,as China's medical personnel system reform developed,it has been recognized that medical human resources,just like human resources in other areas,should be shared by the whole society.But on the other hand,doctors'taking part-time jobs should follow the relative regulations applied in the medical field.
First of all,they should follow relative government laws and regulations.They should also follow the rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for.In addition,they should pay taxes for their income from the part-time jobs.What matters most is that they should first finish their regular jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensure qualified and safe medical treatment.
67.What is the greatest difference between moonlighting and taking part-time jobs?C
A.Doctors can earn more money by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.
B.Doctors pay fewer taxes for the money made by moonlighting than by taking
part-time jobs.
C.Taking part-time jobs is permitted by hospitals while moonlighting is-against
the present regulations.
D.Doctor's part-time jobs,instead of moonlighting,are encouraged by health organizations.
68.From this passage we know that doctors are allowed to  nowadays.B
A.only work for one hospital        
B.work for more than one hospital
C.work any time when they are free   
D.be out of control of hospitals
69.The passage is taken most probably fromD.
A.a(chǎn) notice sent out by the Ministry of Health 
B.regulations made by health organizations
C.China's Practicing Doctor Law
D.a(chǎn) magazine or a newspaper
70.According to the passage,we have got to know thatC.
A.a(chǎn)ll doctors around China prefer moonlighting to part-time jobs
B.moonlighting has been permitted by China's practicing Doctor Law
C.taxes should be paid for the money doctors get from their part-time jobs
D.strict management policies have been adopted to direct the moonlighting.
