Many people use it in baking in place of sugar or other sweeteners, some use it in tea instead of honey and it is frequently used as a topping for pancakes, waffles, and other breakfa

26、st foods. Since true maple syrup is rather expensive, a wide range of false maple syrup exist.This sweetener originated in the northeast region of North America, and it is in this region that most of the worlds maple syrup is still produced. Vermont, New Hampshire Maine, and the eastern portion of C

27、anada are all known for their fine syrup, each with slightly different flavor qualities.This sweetener is produced by tapping maple trees to release and collect their sap. A tree's sap is the liquid that, much like blood in animals, carries water and food to different parts of the tree to keep i

28、t nourished. A mature maple produces about ten gallons of sap in a given season, after which the tree will wall off the channel that has been tapped, so that a new tap has to be drilled the next season. Maples are not tapped for syrup until they are at least 40 years old and have reached a certain s

29、ize, to ensure that no harm comes to the tree through the tapping process .An immense amount of sap is required to produce maple syrup because the watery sap must be reduced to achieve the proper thickness and taste.

30、about 40 times as much maple sap to produce a portion of syrup.

31、r. Grade B is even darker than Grade A dark amber.

The tastes are different, but to say one is objectiv

32、ely “better” than another would be incorrect.8. What do we know about the maple syrup from the first two paragraphs?A. It can be a substitute of sugar and honey.B. It varies greatly in flavor qualities.C. It is produced in the northeast of the US.D. It is too expensive to gain popularity.9. The unde

33、rlined word "nourished" in paragraph 3 can be replaced by “_”.A. warm.B. healthy.C. complete.D. mature.10. Why is a large amount of sap needed?A. Because it is widely used in most delicacies.B. Because it helps to protect old trees from harm.C. Because it needs to be concentrated to make m

36、第3段A tree's sap is the liquid that, much like blood in animals, carries water and food to different parts of the tree to keep it nourished（树的汁液就像动物的血液一样，把水和食物输送到树的不同部分，以保证它的营养）可知，树的汁液的主要作用是保证树木有营养，能够存活。 故选B项。10. 推理判断题。根据第4段An immense amount of sap is required to produce maple syrup because the w

37、atery sap must be reduced to achieve the proper thickness and taste 和it takes about 40 times as much maple sap to produce a portion of syrup可知，生产枫糖浆需要大量的树汁，因为必须减少汁液中的水分才能达到适度的浓度和味道，需要将汁液浓缩。一般需要40倍的汁液才能生产一份枫糖浆。故选C项。11. 推理判断题。文章介绍了在人们日常生活中广泛使用的枫糖浆如何从枫树汁液中提取，枫糖浆有不同的风味，分不同的级别。因此 本文是介绍有关枫糖浆的一些基本知识。故选C 项。

40、id of dozens of squirrels. Generally, a high blood concentration(血液浓度) makes animals, including humans, feel thirty. The sleeping squirrels' blood concentration was low, preventing them from waking up for a drink. Even when researchers woke up the torpid squirrels, they wouldnt drink a drop unti

41、l the team artificially increased the concentration of their blood serum.Next, the researchers wanted to know how the squirrels blood concentration dropped so low. Perhaps the squirrels drank a lot of water before hibernation to dilute(稀释) their blood, the researchers thought. But when they filmed s

42、quirrels preparing for their winter snooze, they found the animals actually drank less water than they normally did.Instead, chemical tests revealed the squirrels regulate their blood concentration by getting rid of electrolytes(电解质)like sodium and other chemicals like glucose and urea and storing t

43、hem elsewhere in the body (possibly in the bladder), the researchers reported last month in Current Biology. The finding could also explain how other hibernating animals stay containing water.This new knowledge might one day help humans with conditions such as diabetes(糖尿病), or astronauts who have l

44、aunched on long space flights. Unfortunately, even if people can figure out how to drop their blood concentration, its unlikely theyll ever be as cute as sleeping squirrels.12. What do we know about the 13-lined ground squirrels?A. They dont hibernate like many other squirrels.B. They are endangered

45、 species in the U. S. Midwest.C. They can live for months without water during hibernation.D. Their heart rule and body temperature are extremely abnormal.13.

B【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种冬眠的松鼠，地松鼠。它以将电解质从血液中换到其他地方储存的方式来降低血液浓度，而这项发明可能用于治疗糖尿病等人类疾病。12. 细节理解题。由第一段For up to 8 months, the tiny mammals wont eat or drink anything at all可知，地松鼠可以多达8个月不吃不喝。即地松鼠冬眠时可以数个月不喝水。故选C。1

48、3. 推理判断题。由第二段a high blood concentration(血液浓度) makes animals, including humans, feel thirty可知血液浓度高促使动物包括人类感到口渴，由此可以推断出冬眠的松鼠不口渴是因为血液浓度低。故选B。14. 细节理解题。由倒数第二段chemical tests revealed the squirrels regulate their blood concentration by getting rid of electrolytes(电解质)like sodium and other chemicals like g

49、lucose and urea and storing them elsewhere in the body可知，化学测试表明松鼠调节血液浓度是通过将电解质转移至身体其他部位储存的方式进行的，即移走某种特定的物质即电解质，并储存到其他地方。故选D。15. 观点态度题。由最后一段可知这项发现可以用来治疗糖尿病或者帮助长时间在太空站的宇航员，有实际运用的价值，即作者对此持积极态度。故选B。第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。Surveillance (监视) is a fact of life.
