Whenever you walk past a cafe,you might be drawn in by the smell of freshly made coffee. But when you try this dark drink,you will regret it,b【1】it tastes like biter Chinese medicine.
Why does something s【2】so good,but taste so bad?Many people are curious (好奇)about this,but now scientists say they have f 【3】 the answer-it lies in our “second sense of smell,"according to the Telegraph.
"We have two senses of smell," explained Barmy Smith,professor of the University of London. “One is when you breathe in things from the environment,and the o【4】 is when the air comes up the nose and is breathed out through the nose. "
When we d【5】coffee,for example,the act of swallowing(香)sends a burst of(一陣)smell up the back of our nose from inside the mouth. This w【6】 up the second sense of smell in our brain. But it is weaker and less sensitive to flavors(味道). As a result it gives us a completely d【7】feelings.
In fact,the second sense of smell plays a big part in our eating e【8】 . It may be common a sense that we smell through our nose and taste using our tongue(舌頭). But the truth is 80 percent of what we think of as taste actually r【9】 us through smell. Just hold your nose w【10】 eating and you will notice that your tongue can only catch a very small part of the flavor.
【答案】
【1】because
【2】smell
【3】found
【4】other
【5】drink
【6】wakes
【7】different
【8】experience
【9】reaches
【10】while/when
【解析】
當(dāng)我們經(jīng)過咖啡店的時候,會聞到咖啡的香味,但是我們嘗起來時,發(fā)現(xiàn)咖啡是苦的。專家認(rèn)為我們有兩種嗅覺。一種是鼻子從環(huán)境中吸進(jìn)東西的嗅覺,另一種是從鼻子里呼出東西的嗅覺。當(dāng)我們吞咽的動作時,會從鼻子里發(fā)出一股來自嘴巴的味道。這會刺激我們大腦里的第二嗅覺,結(jié)果它給我們不一樣的感覺。但是我們認(rèn)為味道的80%實(shí)際上是通過嗅覺傳達(dá)給我們的。當(dāng)你吃東西的時候,捏住鼻子,你就會注意到你的舌頭只能感覺到很少部分的味道。
【1】句意:但是當(dāng)我們喝起來時,會感到很后悔,因?yàn)閲L起來像我們中國的苦藥。根據(jù)you will regret it,b___1___it tastes like biter Chinese medicine.可知,后悔的原因是咖啡像藥一樣很苦,故答案是because
【2】句意:為什么有些事物聞起來很好,但嘗起來很糟糕呢?根據(jù)you might be drawn in by the smell of freshly made coffee.可知,上文用咖啡舉例,所以是聞起來很好,助動詞does后加動詞原形,故答案是smell
【3】句意:很多人對此很好奇,但是現(xiàn)在科學(xué)家們找到了答案——它存在于我們的第二味覺。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,這里是現(xiàn)在完成時用have+過去分詞,結(jié)合句意是“找到”,故答案是found
【4】句意:一種是鼻子從環(huán)境中吸進(jìn)東西的嗅覺,另一種是空氣到了鼻子,然后從鼻子里呼出東西的嗅覺。根據(jù)We have two senses of smell可知,我們有兩種嗅覺,兩者中的另一個用the other,故答案是other
【5】句意:。例如,當(dāng)我們喝咖啡時,會從鼻子里發(fā)出一股來自嘴巴的味道。根據(jù)句意可知,是喝咖啡時,做謂語,主語是we,用復(fù)數(shù),故答案是drink
【6】句意:這喚醒了我們大腦中的第二嗅覺。根據(jù)句意可知,是喚醒了,主語是it,謂語動詞用第三人稱單數(shù),故答案是wakes
【7】句意:結(jié)果是,它給了我們完全不同的感覺。根據(jù)But it is weaker and less sensitive to flavors(味道).可知,這會刺激我們大腦里的第二嗅覺,結(jié)果它給我們不一樣的感覺。修飾名詞feeling用形容詞,故答案是different
【8】句意:事實(shí)上,第二嗅覺在我們吃東西的體驗(yàn)上發(fā)揮著重要作用。根據(jù)句意可知,是在吃東西的體驗(yàn)中,experience表示經(jīng)驗(yàn)、體驗(yàn),不可數(shù),故答案是experience
【9】句意:但是我們認(rèn)為味道的80%實(shí)際上是通過嗅覺傳達(dá)給我們的。根據(jù)句意可知,表示“傳達(dá)”,主語是taste,謂語動詞用第三人稱單數(shù),故答案是reaches
【10】句意:當(dāng)你吃東西的時候,捏住鼻子,你就會注意到你的舌頭只能感覺到很少部分的味道。根據(jù)句意可知,表示“當(dāng)……的時候”,故答案是while/when
while和when的區(qū)別
①when是at or during the time that, 既指時間點(diǎn),也可指一段時間;
while是during the time that,只指一段時間,因此when引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句中的動詞可以是終止性動詞,也可以是延續(xù)性動詞,而while從句中的動詞必須是延續(xù)性動詞。
②when 說明從句的動作和主句的動作可以是同時,也可以是先后發(fā)生;while 則強(qiáng)調(diào)主句的動作在從句動作的發(fā)生的過程中或主從句兩個動作同時發(fā)生。
③由when引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句,主句用過去進(jìn)行時,從句應(yīng)用一般過去時;如果從句和主句的動作同時發(fā)生,兩句都用過去進(jìn)行時的時候,多用while引導(dǎo),如:
a. When the teacher came in, we were talking.
當(dāng)此句改變主從句的位置時,則為:
While we were talking, the teacher came in.
b. They were singing while we were dancing.
④when和while 還可作并列連詞。when表示“在那時”;while表示“而,卻”,表對照關(guān)系。如:
a. The children were running to move the bag of rice when they heard the sound of a motor bike.
孩子們正要跑過去搬開那袋米,這時他們聽到了摩托車的聲音。
b. He is strong while his brother is weak. 他長得很結(jié)實(shí),而他弟弟卻很瘦弱。

【題目】 One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good?” I asked her.
“Yeah,” she answered. I leaned forward.
“Patty Poem,’” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered where they lay …
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise,
I’ll miss her harum-scarum noise,
And look in vain for scattered toys
And I’ll be sad
A terrible sorrow (痛苦) washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock. “It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s feeling when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible I burst (突然) out crying.
“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.
“Oh, Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”
“Okay,” I was still weeping (流淚). My scare has gone. But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could obviously understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated (著迷) by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.
【1】Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book.B. Something on its cover caught her eye.
C. Her mother was reading it with interest.D. It has a meaningful title.
【2】The writer’s mother liked to read “Patty Poem” because______.
A. it reflected her own childhoodB. it was written in simple language
C. it was composed by a famous poetD. it gave her an idea of what would happen
【3】It can be concluded from the passage that “Patty Poem” leads the writer to _______.
A. discover the power of poetryB. recognize her love for puzzles
C. find her eagerness to grow upD. experience great homesickness
