Octopuses (章鱼) are sea animals famous for their rounded bodies, bulging eyes, and eight long arms. They live in all the world’s oceans but there are especially more octopuses in warm, tropical (热带的) waters. Octopuses, like their cousin, the squid (乌贼), are often considered “monsters of the deep”, though some species, or types, occupy relatively shallow waters.
Most octopuses stay along the ocean’s floor, although some species are pelagic, which means they live near the water’s surface. Other octopus species live in deep, dark waters, rising from below at
dawn and dusk to search for food. Crabs and shrimps rank among their favorite foods, though some can attack larger prey (猎物), like sharks. Octopuses typically drop down on their prey from above and, using powerful suctions that line their arms, pull the animals into their mouths. The octopus performs its famous backward swim by blowing up water through a muscular tube on the body called a siphon. Octopuses also crawl (爬) along the ocean’s floor, putting their arms into small openings to search for food Seals, whales, and large fish prey on octopuses.
If threatened, octopuses shoot an inky liquid that darkens the water, confusing the other animals. The octopus can also change to gray, brown, pink, blue, or green to mix with its surroundings. Octopuses may also change color as a way to communicate with other octopuses. Octopuses are solitary creatures that live alone in dens (巢穴) built from rocks, which the octopus moves into place using its powerful arms. Octopuses sometimes even fashion a rock “door” for their dens that pull closed when the octopus is safely inside.
9. In which place can we find more Octopuses?
A. The ocean near Hainan. B. The river near Canada.
C. The Arctic Ocean. D. The South Pole.
10. What is a way for Octopuses to communicate with each other?
A. Using special signals. B. Making special sounds.
C. Living together in a group. D. Changing their own colors.
11. What do we know about Octopuses?
A. They just stay in deep ocean.
B. They eat food by using their teeth.
C. They don’t like hunting large animals.
D. They shoot an inky liquid to avoid dangers.
【答案】9. A 10. D 11. D

Because of the financial crisis in the US and UK, college students are beginning to struggle to find ways to pay their tuition fees and accommodations.
Recently, two major US student loan (贷款) lenders, Citibank and JPMorgan Chase, announced they were leaving the student loan industry altogether. Because banks currently have a lack of credit, they are reluctant to offer students low-interest loans that need a several-year wait for any return of interest.
In the US, many undergraduates fill up their financial needs with a private loan, although the majority can get government-funded loans. In the 2015-2016 academic year, $ 17 billion in private
student loans was used to finance higher education. The lack of private funding has yet to be covered and will hit many US students hard.
Across the Atlantic, UK students have been less troubled by the crisis. Most undergraduates in the UK cover their university expenses with government-funded loans and grants. Their biggest concern is a sudden increase in student rent.
Most young professionals now rent houses, since 80 percent of UK mortgage schemes (按揭计划) have disappeared—a direct result of the credit crisis. This has boosted the house rent market.
In large cities, UK students are paying almost 6.5 percent more in rent than the previous year. Figures from the UK organization Accommodation for Student show students in big cities such as London paying an average weekly rent of $ 203.
Yet, despite students’ suffering, the number of this year’s university applications is expected to grow. During economic slumps, people regard further education as a way to survive tough job market.
12. What does the underlined word “reluctant” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Forced. B. Unwilling.
C. Determined. D. Pleasant.
13. What is a big challenge to the American students according to the text?
A. A lack of education.
B. The low-interest loan.
C. The short fall in private funding.
D. A lack of government-funded loan.
14. What are the UK students most concerned about?
A. House rent.
B. Further education.
C. Mortgage schemes.
D. Government-funded loans.
15. What may be the best title for the text?
A. College students in the US and UK are faced with their financial crisis
B. It is the duty for the governments to solve college students’ financial crisis
C. Further education is a good way for college students to survive tough job market
D. The private student loan is a good way for college students to overcome the difficulties

【解析】本文叙述了热带雨林在人们生活中的重要作用,它们能吸收太阳光调节地球上的温度,减少人类得病,还能提供一些药用的植物药材为人类治病,因此,我们要保护热带雨林,不要滥垦滥伐。
41. 句意:被高树覆盖的地区。此处是过去分词做后置定语,可知答案为covered。
42. 句意:没有森林的覆盖,这些区域会反射更多的热量进入大气层,温暖世界的其他地方。此空填介词without。
43. 句意:没有森林的覆盖,这些区域会反射更多的热量进入大气层,温暖世界的其他地方。此处是现在分词做自然的结果状语,故答案为warming。
44. 根据In the past hundred years,可知句子用现在完成时态,主语是humans,复数形式,故答案为have begun。
45. 句意:养农家牲畜的土地。根据句意可知此处应该用名词的复数形式,答案为animals。
46. 副词修饰动词,故答案为obviously。
47. 句意:人们显然需要我们从砍伐树木中获得的资源,但是我们将遭受比我们受益更多的痛苦。根据上下文可知是转折关系,答案为but。
48. 句意:医学的价值。形容词修饰名词,答案为medical。

【名师点睛】
现在分词作伴随状语和现在分词作结果状语的区别
1.伴随状语的位置是可以在句首或者是句末;其次,它所表示的动作时与谓语同时发生的,只不过谓语动词动作为主要动作,分词动作为次要动作。
如:Singing a song,he walked home.
He walked home,singing a song.他唱着歌回家去了。
2.结果状语的位置通常只能在句末,表示谓语动作所产生的自然结果.
如:A terrible earthquake happened in China in 2008,causing thousands of deaths.2008年中国发生了一场大地震,造成了上万人死亡。
The teacher passed awa,,making all the students very sad.
老师去世了,这使得所有学生非常难过。
