Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth, and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政會). The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere jokingly named the bridge “Nutty Narrows”After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60­foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose (消防水帶). It cost $1，000.It didn't take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching_them_the_ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn­out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.Peters died in 1984, and a ten­foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.16.

It was rebuilt after years of use.D. It was designed by Bill Hutch.BThe average temperature around the world is rising. People living in the US Midwest might find a fact hard to believe, though. The scientists suggest that the change in the Midwest climate may have happened because of farming.The first study was led by David Changnon, a climatologist(氣候?qū)W家) at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb.Changnon and his team studied temperature records from the sites in the Midwest. They found that since 1970, the average temperature in the region during July and August has gone downby up to one degree Fahrenheit(華氏度)from what it was during the years between 1930 and 1969. Their investigation also showed that the average rainfall in those states during those two months has increased. Between 1970 and 2009, about 0.33 inch more rain fell than between 1930 and 1969.These_changes may be connected by humidity(濕度), Changnon says. Humidity is the measure of how much moisture is in the air. Humid air, which contains a lot of moisture，takes longer to heat up than dry air, Changnon notes. And humid air often releases its moisture through rainfall.So where did the extra moisture in the air come from？Changnon points to farms in the region. As plants grow, they pull moisture from the ground and release it into the air. And among plants, soybeans (大豆) and corn plants release a lot of moisture. Midwestern farms now plant more soybeans and corn than in the past, with 97 percent of farmland today planted with these two crops. In the 1930s, corn and soybeans covered only about 57 percent, Changnon says. He also notes that the plants are planted closer together now than they used to be, so there are more plants per acre than in the past.The second study, like Changnon's, also found an increase in rainfall in the same area. But it points to another possible source for the increased moisture. Alan Robock at Rutgers University was part of the team that produced the second study and presented the group's findings. The team found that irrigation practices in the Great Plains have changed over the years. The researchers studied a vast area in the region. They found that in 1930, farmers in that region irrigated only about 1.8 million acres of farmland. In 1980, however, farmers irrigated nearly 15 million acres. Plants use the water and then release it into the air.These results by Changnon and Robock and their colleagues are the first step toward understanding a change in the weather.20What does the underlined term “These changes” refer to?ALower temperatures and more rainfall.BHigher temperatures and higher humidity.CMaking a record both in the past and now.DThe two periods of the 40­year investigation.21Which of the following could be the possible sources for the increased moisture in the US Midwest?AScientists' research and farmers' attention.BLess farmland and more plants.CMore plants and irrigation practices.DNatural reservoirs and underground rivers.22The studies show that in America's Midwest，_Athe average temperature is getting higher and higherBmore and more farmland has been desertedCthe amount of rain is closely related to the temperatureDsummers are now cooler and wetter than they were in years past23According to the passage, irrigating more and more plants means _Amaking more space for farms and buildingsBmaking more and more water into the air, and thus causing more rainCmore farms depending on water­saving systemsDusing plants to change the climate課時(shí)作業(yè)(二十六).1.Ahere和there放在句首時(shí)，主語是名詞要用全部倒裝，主語為代詞則不用倒裝。2A表示否定含義的副詞never放句首用部分倒裝且注意時(shí)態(tài)。3A本題考查倒裝句的用法。句意：只有在你飲食正確的條件下，你才能保持身材、保持健康。only用于句首和狀語或狀語從句連用時(shí)，后面使用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。unlessif not(除非；如果不)，用于句首時(shí)引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句，主句不用倒裝，首先排除C項(xiàng)。如選D項(xiàng)，句意：如果你飲食正確，你將不能保持身材和健康。語意邏輯有問題。故A項(xiàng)正確。4D考查詞性用法。in disgust“厭惡地”，作狀語。disgusting food“令人厭惡的食物”。disgusted則表示“感到厭惡的，反感的”。5B考查動詞短語辨析。句意：因?yàn)槲覠o硬幣可投了，所以我的電話被中途切斷了。cut off意為“切斷”，符合句意。break in意為“強(qiáng)行進(jìn)入，插嘴”，是不及物動詞短語，不能用于被動語態(tài)； hang up意為“掛斷電話”；put down意為“取下，寫下”，均不符合語境。6C考查動詞詞義辨析。根據(jù)題意“我推算我們將在下午六點(diǎn)到那兒”可知選C。count數(shù)；figure計(jì)算；calculate估計(jì)，推算；evaluate 評估，評價(jià)。7D考查名詞辨析。A項(xiàng)意為“報(bào)酬，獎金”，B項(xiàng)意為“獎賞，獎金，獎品”，C項(xiàng)意為“成本，價(jià)錢，代價(jià)”，D項(xiàng)意為“價(jià)值，估價(jià)，評價(jià)”。答語句意：鑒于它真正的價(jià)值，我想，它很值得付諸實(shí)踐。8B考查動詞短語。lay off解雇；lay out布置，展示；lay aside擱置，積蓄；lay down放下，放棄。根據(jù)句意選B。9C考查動詞短語辨析。句意：在你回答我的問題之前，你最好快速地瀏覽一下這篇文章。dip into“翻閱，瀏覽”，符合題意。get through“通過；完成”；cut through“刺穿”；look into“調(diào)查”。10A考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：地震過后，地方政府所做的第一件事就是為那些無家可歸的人們提供住處。accommodation住處；occupation 占有，居??；equipment 設(shè)備；furniture家具。11C考查非謂語動詞。句意：南方下了大雨，在幾個(gè)省區(qū)造成嚴(yán)重洪災(zāi)?？崭窈髎erious flooding是rained heavily的后果，而且句子主語it和cause之間存在主動關(guān)系，所以此處要用動詞的­ing形式作結(jié)果狀語。12C考查固定搭配。commit oneself to doing sth.承諾做某事。13B考查時(shí)態(tài)和主謂一致。根據(jù)as well as并列兩個(gè)名詞作主語時(shí)，謂語動詞與as well as前面的名詞在人稱和數(shù)上一致，排除A項(xiàng)；experiment with意為“進(jìn)行實(shí)驗(yàn)，進(jìn)行試驗(yàn)”，experiment on意為“在上試驗(yàn)”，如：He experimented on rats.由此排除D項(xiàng)；根據(jù)語境，該空與其主語在邏輯上是主動關(guān)系，排除C項(xiàng)。14A否定副詞never放于句首，構(gòu)成倒裝句，時(shí)間狀語應(yīng)用陳述語序。 15B考查動詞短語辨析。句意：這條項(xiàng)鏈?zhǔn)羌冦y的。be made into“被制成”；be made from表示看不出原材料的制成品；be made out of“由制成”。故選B項(xiàng)。.A文章主要講述了Amos Peters觀察到松鼠在覓食時(shí)遇到交通帶來的危險(xiǎn)，他還看到一只死了的松鼠嘴里還含著食物，他設(shè)想要為松鼠們設(shè)計(jì)一個(gè)能保證它們安全的橋。后來通過努力這個(gè)橋終于設(shè)計(jì)成功，并為世界所知，引起國際的關(guān)注，成為當(dāng)?shù)氐囊坏里L(fēng)景。16. D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段的“ to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.”看出建這座橋是為了保證松鼠的安全。故選D。17. B推理判斷題。題干關(guān)鍵詞為“coffee break discussion”。由第四段“and that day's coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council.”可以看出在此期間，建松鼠橋的想法產(chǎn)生了。故選B。18. D詞義猜測題。根據(jù)本句的“Squirrels were even seen guiding their young”看出，是教小松鼠如何使用這個(gè)橋。故選D。19. C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段的“Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced”看出數(shù)年之后，這座橋得到了重修。故選C。B這是一篇科普類說明文。全球變暖是一個(gè)不爭的事實(shí)，然而在美國中西部地區(qū)人們卻感受不到這種變化，這是為什么呢？20A代詞指代題。上文中提到1970年以來，七月和八月的平均溫度比1930年到1969年這段時(shí)間下降了1華氏度，而平均降雨量增加了0.33英寸。由此可知“These changes”指的是：溫度降低，降雨量增多。21C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容和第四段中的第二、四句話和最后一句可知空氣濕度增加的原因是C項(xiàng)。22D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段內(nèi)容可知，近四十年美國中西部地區(qū)七月和八月的平均氣溫比前四十年的平均氣溫要低1華氏度，而降雨量多0.33英寸。由此可知D項(xiàng)正確。23B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的Plants use the water and then release it into the air.可知，植物吸收灌溉的水，然后再將水釋放到空氣中，從而形成降雨。
