故本题选A项。
5.Whatdoestheword“freaked”meaninthefirstsentence?
A.Excited.B.Scared.

词义猜测题。
从下文的Whenacatisfrightened,itsheartstartsbeatingfaster,itsmusclesgettense,andtherearechangesinthechemicalsinitsbloodstream.可知,这是指一只害怕的猫的表现。

【语篇解读】 本文是关于鲳参鱼的人工养殖问题。
8.Pompanocostssomuchtobuymaybebecause________.
A.itremainsasecretforthescientists
B.itcannotberaisedinbigtanksinland
C.it’sthebesttastingkindsoffishintheworld
D.itliveswarmlyofftheAtlanticandGulfcoasts
解析:
选B。
细节理解题。
根据题干中“costssomuchtobuy”定位到第一段的最后一句。
得知其中一个原因可能是pompano是最好吃的鱼“之一”,可知C错。
因此答案只能在后文,答案A、D都是文中的事实,但是却不是造成鱼贵的原因。
而无法进行人工养殖最有可能造成鱼贵,故B为最佳答案。
其中D的干扰性可能比较大。
9.Paragraph4mainlytellsusraisingpompanoatfishfarms________.
A.makesiteasiertobuyandeatthepompano
B.preventspeoplecatchingpompanofromthesea
C.stopspeoplebuyingpompanocaughtfromthesea
D.helpsmakesurewildpompanowillremaininthesea
解析:
选D。
段落大意题。
本段主要说明人工养殖pompano的必要性,它可以方便人们购买,但最重要的是它可以避免因过度捕捞而灭绝。
根据insteadof可知后文才是重点,故A所描述的只是事实细节。
10.Theword“overfishing”inparagraph5means________.
A.过度捕捞B.太受欢迎
C.完全消失D.难以搜寻
解析:
选A。
词义猜测题。
思路1:
根据aproblemcalledoverfishing可知overfishing是一种问题,它会导致鱼类大量减少,甚至彻底消失。
思路2:
over表示比较程度差别关系是意为“超过,过度,太”:
fish是捕鱼,人类的行为。
11.Thebesttitleofthepassagemaybe“________”.
A.Pompano:
thetastyfish
B.Secretsofthebigfish
C.Achallenge:
growingthebigfish
D.Thewayofraisingthebigfish
解析:
选C。
主旨大意题。
综合全文可知从第三段起直到文章结束都在讲述这种鱼的人工养殖问题。
D
