四、阅读理解 Antarctica doesn't seem very inviting but about 37.000 visitors are expected to go on a trip to the frozen continent during this tourist season. If you decide to go there,you'll need to think about timing.Ice,wind and low temperatures make a trip to Antarctica an impossibility outside of November through March.You'll also have to consider the almost prohibitive cost of your ship ticket-from about US$3,500 to US$25,000.This doesn't cover airfare to your port of departure,which is usually in South America.Australia or New Zealand. Deciding what kind of boat on which to travel will make all the difference as accommodations vary greatly from one to the next.Large cruises,which might carry from 500 to 30,000 passengers,are good for vacationers and learners,but they never dock at a port.Smaller ships,such as yachts()and dive boats,allow you on the continent,and their staff plan various physical activities for visitors. Those who actually get their feet on the ground will be privileged to have a very unique experience,including many educational opportunities.Tours of active scientific research facilities manned by biologists are often available.Visitors are also able to see various penguins and seals,some of which are brave enough to get up close and personal.Finally,a few adventurous ones will enjoy mountaineering and diving during their time on the icy land. Another consideration that must be made when visiting Antarctica is one's environmental footprint.Every tourist,guide,researcher and ship makes an impact on this faraway part of our Earth.Precautions()such as time limits on land,keeping a 5-metre distance from animals and rules against taking or leaving anything on the continent are strictly kept.Some wonder if it's better for people just to stay away from Antarctica if they are so likely to affect the land negatively.But most will say that seeing Antarctica helps make the world more aware of the part this beautiful location plays in the global environment. 1.Which month is appropriate for a tour of Antarctica? A.February B.June. C.July. D.October. 答案A 解析细节理解题。根据第二段中的If you decide to go there,.you'll need to think about timing.Ice,wind and low temperatures make a trip to Antarctica an impossibility outside of November through March.”可知，十一月到三月适合去南极旅行。故选A项。 2.What does the underlined word"prohibitive"in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Common B.Additional. C.Reasonable D.Unaffordable 答案D 解析词义猜测题。根据画线单词后的from about US$3,500toUS$25,000可知，去南极的船票 很昂贵，所以prohibitive在此处意为“贵得负担不起的”。故选D项。 3.What can we learn about passengers on large ships? A.They are on board throughout the trip. B.They can enjoy various physical activities C.They can get very close to local animals. D.They have a chance to land on the continent 答案A 解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Large cruises,which might carry from500to30,000 passengers,.are good for vacationers and learners,.but they never dock at a port.”可知，大游轮在整 个旅行中都不靠岸。故选A项。 4.What do most people think of the trips to Antarctica?

C.Educational D.Destructive 答案c 解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的Those who actually get their feet on the ground will be privileged to have a very unique experience,including many educational opportunities.”及最后一

In 1405,a huge fleet of more than 300 ships manned by over 27,800 men set sail from Liujia Harbour near Suzhou on a distant voyage under the command of Zheng He.2 The fleet sailed along China's coast to Champa close to Vietnam and after crossing the South China Sea,visited Java,Sumatra and reached Sri Lanka finally.On the way back,it sailed along the west coast of India and returned home in 1407.3 In all.he had made calls at over 30 countries and territories.4 No matter what country he visited,he called on the ruler of the land,presenting to him valuable gifts to express China's sincere desire to develop friendly relations.5 They sent the emperor zebras.giraffes,shells,elephant ivory and rhinoceros-horn medicine. The voyages by Zheng He strengthened the friendly relations between China and other countries in Asia and Africa and led to cultural and economic exchange between them.Therefore,his expeditions could rightfully be called "one of the greatest achievements in mankind's history of navigation". A.Zheng He served as commander of the fleet. B.The response of the rulers was very generous. C.On board the ships were large quantities of goods. D.The Great Ming Empire launched a series of marine activities. E.On each voyage,Zheng He acted as the representative of the Ming court.
