In recent years, GM technology has brought much benefit

8、directly to farms, reducing the use of poisonous chemicals that kill pests of plants, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions (排放)A particular concern among farmers in developing countries is the loss of crops to insect pests. One way to fight this problem is to use chemicals，but this behavior will do

9、 harm to the health of farmers, the environment, and the people who eat the food. Instead, biotechnology can be used to increase production of pestresistant crops. For example, in Africa, the sweet potato serves as an important crop, but viruses (病毒) can dramatically destroy its output by up to 80%.

10、 The Kenya Agricultural Research Institute, however，has developed a genetically modified sweet potato that can increase crop production by 1825%. Whats more, this new kind of potato has genes that resist damage due to bad climate or unexpected natural disasters.The use of genetically modified foods

11、can have a positive effect on the economy, especially in less developed countries. GM crops have already led to economic growth in South Africa, according to some studies. Because GM crops require fewer chemicals, farmers can save money on both the costs of pesticides and labor necessary to manage t

12、he treatments. This, combined with higher output, allow the farmer to gain more from the product.With an increasing adoption of GM crops, the use of pestcontrol chemicals has been greatly reduced. In fact, while not necessarily related to foodrelated biotechnology, some GM plants have been developed

13、 to take care of heavy metal pollution in some polluted soil. Finally, biotechnology can allow people to receive vaccines (疫苗) that are difficult to distribute. By putting vaccines into food products, organizations can more easily transport them to people in need.1We can learn from the text that_.AG

17、is difficult to transport GM products in some areas.B(2013湖北高考)Weve reached a strangesome would say unusualpoint. While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweigh

18、t, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. Its the good life thats more likely to kill us these days.Worse, nearly 18 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. Whats going on?We really dont have many excuses for our weight problems

19、. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by publichealth campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting throughup to a point.In the 1970s, Finland, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A publichealth cam

20、paign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body.

21、 That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the worlds most bodyconscious country.We know what we should be doing to lose weightbut actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower.Others bla

22、me good food. They say: its just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much Americanstyle fast food.Some also blame their parentstheir genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because t

23、heyre normal in shape，or rather slim.Its a similar story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I saynot as I do.5What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence?AThe good life is a great

25、 available.BBody image has nothing to do with good food.CThey have been made fully aware of its dangers.DThere are too many overweight people in the world.7The example of Finland is used to illustrate_.Athe cause of heart diseaseBthe fashion of body shapingCthe effectiveness of a campaignDthe histor

28、故B项合乎句意。at a time“每一次”，at a sale“特价”。4Cunder no circumstances无论如何都不，放在句首时，句子部分倒装，排除A、B。D项与语境不符，故选C。5C句意：在新上任的总理眼里，只要与农民相关的事，就没有小事。concern为及物动词，为“与相关”的意思，根据该动词和farmers之间的逻辑关系分析，此处用被动。6C句意：三名男子昨晚从当地的一家银行抢走了大量的钱。rob someplace of sth.为固定搭配，表示“从某地抢走某物”。7B句意：安装了摄像功能的机器人能为人类做很多事情。be equipped with“装备有”；be e

29、quipped for“为有所准备/装备”，且所填内容在句中作后置定语，修饰robot，故B项正确。8C考查动词辨析及其用法。句意：令我吃惊的是，那款汽车的售价仅仅一个月的时间就由100 000元降到了98 000元，这使我省了2 000元。increase“增加，增多”；assess“评估，评价”；decline“下降，减少”；cut“削减，裁减”，C项符合句意。9C句意：如果我们的意见不能统一，我们就得投票表决。vote on就投票表决。10D考查动词辨析。句意：到这个月底必须提交完成的设计给老板。没问题。”此处submit“提交”，与the completed design.to the

30、 boss.相吻合。其他三项不合句意。unite“联合，团结”；oppose“反对”；assist“援助，帮助”。.1.A细节理解题。根据文章第一段GM technology has brought much benefit directly to farms，reducing the use of poisonous chemicals that kill pests of plants，and reducing greenhouse gas emissions的信息可知，转基因技术对减少化学药品使用量和降低温室气体排放具有积极作用，因此对环境有益。2B推理判断题。文章第二段以肯尼亚的番薯为

31、例，介绍了转基因农作物的优势，根据this new kind of potato has genes that resist damage due to bad climate or unexpected natural disasters的信息可知，转基因技术使农作物能够适应恶劣的自然环境。3D细节理解题。文章第三段介绍了转基因技术对于发展中国家农民和社会的巨大作用，根据GM crops have already led to economic growth in South Africa和farmers can save money on both the costs of pestici

32、des and labor necessary to manage the treatments的信息可知，转基因农作物可以给农民带来很大的经济效益。4C推理判断题。根据文章中对农业领域中转基因技术的介绍，以及最后对传播疫苗中使用的生物技术的介绍，可以判断，生物技术将会越来越多地运用于社会的不同领域。【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。这个世界真奇怪，一方面，我们在与全球性饥饿问题作斗争；另一方面，肥胖成为人类健康的杀手。在有些国家人们吃减肥药，或者做手术去掉多余的脂肪，而且这已成为一种时尚。真正解决问题的办法是锻炼，但人们不想动，而且难以拒绝美食的诱惑。看来解决肥胖问题任重道远。5A细节理解题。第一

33、段指出一个奇怪的现象：一方面，世界卫生组织的报告表明应对世界性的饥饿问题至关重要；另一方面，死于肥胖的人增多，由此判断选A：生活太好带来的危害比生活太苦带来的危害更多。B项“饥饿使世界上更多的人死去”、C项“世界卫生组织的报告表明人们不关注食品安全问题”、D项“尽管世界卫生组织在努力，肥胖问题依旧没有解决”都不正确。6C推理判断题。第三段说，从2001年开始的公众健康运动已经使肥胖的危害深入人心，以至于在芬兰，人们吃减肥药，做脂肪切除手术；第六段说，我们知道要减肥的话我们该做什么，但做不做又是另外一个问题了。从这些信息看，作者认为现在肥胖率居高不下的原因是，人们知道肥胖的危害，但就是不采取措施

34、锻炼减肥。7C推理判断题。文章在介绍芬兰的情况时说，在20世纪70年代，在芬兰，肥胖引起的心脏病发病率世界最高，通过公众健康运动，心脏病的死亡率在过去30年下降了80%。因此作者介绍芬兰的目的不是为了说明心脏病的起因、塑身的时尚、意识到身体问题的国家的历史，而是说明这个国家掀起的健康运动的效果：降低了心脏病发病率。8A主旨大意题。本文作者围绕肥胖问题进行了论述，说人们都知道肥胖的危害，却不愿意积极锻炼，宁可通过吃减肥药或切除脂肪来减肥，还把肥胖问题归咎于快餐，归咎于自己的遗传基因等等，因此本文的题目应该是A项：是行动起来，还是继续为自己找借口？.1.Its reported that the government will involve the matter.2.This is the first time that Ive heard of it.3.The offices are equipped with new computers.4.They robbed the people of their liberty.5.She is on the decline，and may die soon.
