山东省2024年高考阅读表达专项训练（四）
阅读下面的短文并用英语回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
[1]Although many Chinese students say their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say, “My spoken English is poor.” However, their spoken English does not have to remain poor! I would suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
[2]First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to limited vocabulary. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
[3]Second, they are afraid of
. Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn’t matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.
[4]The third, not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
[5]Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive (主动的) language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their spoken English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.

[1] For some scientists, boring and often strange tasks are just part of the daily work. Popular Science wrote about some of those unusual jobs in its 10 Worst Jobs in Science list for its April issue, 2011. The list seeks to “show how brave you have to be to really perform in real science,” says editor Jacob Warb. Here are some of them.
[2] Sneeze modeler: Most people turn away when they hear a sneeze, but University of California-Berkeley researcher Mark Nicas studies where on a person’s face spit will land when someone coughs or sneeze. He hopes to find the areas of the body most fragile to be attacked by the flu virus.
[3] Doomsday fact-checker: The movie 2024 focuses on doomsday, which is supposed to be the end of the world. Since it came out, archaeologists(考古学家) such as Anthony Aveni of Colgate University have been responding to hundreds of e-mails from “sleepless-teenagers” to tell them that the story is false.
[4] Dance observer: Peter Lovatt at the University of Hertfordshire in the UK observes people dancing and onlookers’ reaction, to discover the social motivations behind dancing.
[5] Bean counter: Purdue University scientist Andrew Robinson and his research team counted beans of 10 plants from each of the 72 plots of soybeans they had planted, to study which months are most productive to plant soybeans.
[6] Whale cutter: Michelle Berman of Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and his team cut open the whale and dolphins that are washed up on shore to study what killed them. Researchers often have to stand in knee-deep blood and cut through fatty whale oils, which can stick to the hair and skin.

① __________________
② ________________

2. The end of the world
解析：词义猜测题。第3段中的非限制性定语从句which is supposed to be the end of the world是对该词的解释，所以答案为the end of the world。

解析：句子替换题，考查句意理解。给出句的part of the body对应the areas of the body 给出句的the flu virus hits it对应to be attacked by the flu virus，所以应该是本句。
5. 研究人员往往不得不站在齐膝深的血泊中，划开挤满脂肪的鲸油，任凭这些鲸油粘到他们的头发和皮肤上。
解析：考查句子翻译。本句为复合句，which can stick to the hair and skin为定语从句，修饰whale oils。翻译时特别注意cut through，stick to和knee-deep所表达的意思。
