选 做 题 Ⅰ.短文填空 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Cutting the cheese.” “Breaking wind.” Whatever the expression, people have long been taught that passing wind (放屁) in groups is rude. __1__ A research team, led by marine biologist Ben Wilson of the Bamfield Marine Science Centre in Canada, recently did the first ever study that says these fish talk to each other by breaking wind. Wilson and his team studied herring from the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.__2__ “It turns out that herring make unusual farting (放屁) sounds at night，” explained Wilson. __3__ Herring use FRT to communicate with each other in the dark. The noise seems to allow the fish to find each other without alerting predators (捕猎者). Traveling together can help fish stay safe from their enemies. __4__ Instead of having gas, scientists say that herring gulp (吞咽) air at the surface. They store the air and release it through a hole in their rear ends. The scientists say that FRT sounds could help fisherman find herring. But the scientists worry that noise from boat engines could hurt the ability of herring to communicate with each other by passing wind. __5__ But for herring, the ability to hear each other pass wind could be the difference between life and death. A．Wilson and his team named the noise Fast Repetitive Tick (FRT)． B．Tooting fish? The idea may sound funny. C．The team caught fish and put them in large tanks to watch their behavior. D．The fish were found to produce high－frequency sound bursts up to 22 kilohertz. E．Fish pass wind differently from humans. F．However, for herring, a type of fish, group “tooting” (发出嘟嘟声) meetings may be an important way of communicating. 答案：1－5　FCAEB Ⅱ.新短文改错 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。 删除：把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1. 每处错误仅限1词； 2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。 Henry likes fish in the river near our house.
