Ⅴ.閱讀理解(共8小題；每小題2.5分，滿分20分)
A
Blood Falls are at the tip of a giant glacier in Antarctica. As its name suggests, the icy face of Blood Falls is red—but not from blood. Instead, the water gets its color because it's rich in iron. When the water comes out from its underground beginnings, the iron is exposed to the air and quickly forms the red rust.
A scientist recently studied the rusty water and came up with some surprising results. The water that feeds Blood Falls probably comes from a salty underground lake. It's home to microbes that surprisingly don't need oxygen to survive.
“This salty lake is a sort of time capsule，” said Jill Mikucki, who led the study. When she and her team studied the water, they found no oxygen but lots of iron. They suspected that the underwater lake formed when a giant glacier, now 1，300 feet thick, moved over the salty lake at least 1.5 million years ago. This trapped the water and everything in it in an oxygen-free environment.
Unlike human beings and most other forms of life, the microbes from Blood Falls don't need oxygen to live. Instead, they are able to exist using the iron.
The study gives us more information about our own planet. It may be useful in other scientific areas—like the search for life on other planets. If scientists find living things on the Earth that live on iron instead of oxygen, researchers might have a better idea of where to look for life elsewhere.
1．For what do Blood Falls get the name？(　　)
A．They are rich in oxygen.
B．They reflect their red surroundings.
C．Their water rich in iron is red.
D．They are composed of blood.
2．What probably made Jill Mikucki most surprised？(　　)
A．The discovery of a salty underground lake.
B．Microbes that don't need oxygen to survive.
C．The movement of a giant glacier.
D．The color of Blood Falls.
3．Why did Jill Mikucki believe this salty lake is a sort of time capsule？(　　)
A．Because it was formed by a giant glacier.
B．Because it could be used to study life on other planets.
C．Because it was home to special microbes.
D．Because it was formed more than 1.5 million years ago.
4．What do the microbes from Blood Falls live on？(　　)
A．Air. B．Water.
C．Iron. D．Oxygen.
B
“You can use me as a last resort (選擇), and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids' lacrosse (長曲棍球) club.
I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug_at_the_heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on...At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, “Alright. Yes, I'll do it.”
I'm secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.
Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more：Connecting to the community (社區) as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.
In that sense, I'm pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I'd freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivation lies
5．What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph 1？(　　)
A．She knows little about the club.
B．She isn't good at sports.
C．She just doesn't want to volunteer.
D．She's unable to meet her schedule.
6．What does the underlined phrase “tug at the heartstrings” in paragraph 2 mean？(　　)
A．Encourage teamwork.
B．Appeal to feelings.
C．Promote good deeds.
D．Provide advice.
7．What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3？(　　)
A．She gets interested in lacrosse.
B．She is proud of her kids.
C．She'll work for another season.
D．She becomes a good helper.
8．Why does the author like doing volunteer work？(　　)
A．It gives her a sense of duty.
B．It makes her very happy.
C．It enables her to work hard.
D．It brings her material rewards.

【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了科學家在南極洲發現了神奇的、富含鐵元素的“血瀑布”，此次發現提供給我們許多有關地球的信息，這對地球生命的研究也許具有劃時代的意義。
1．答案與解析：C　推理判斷題。由第一段中的Instead, the water gets its color because it's rich in iron. When the water comes out from its underground beginnings, the iron is exposed to the air and quickly forms the red rust.可以判斷，“血瀑布”之所以有此名是因為水里富含鐵元素，而鐵暴露在空氣中，很快就會形成紅色的鐵銹。
2．答案與解析：B　細節理解題。由第二段中的．..surprisingly don't need oxygen to survive.并結合第三段可知，這些微生物不需要氧氣就能生存，這一點令她感到驚奇。
3．答案與解析：D　推理判斷題。由第三段中的They suspected that the underwater lake formed when a giant glacier, now 1，300 feet thick, moved over the salty lake at least 1.5 million years ago.可以得出正確選項。
4．答案與解析：C　細節理解題。由第四段中的Instead, they are able to exist using the iron.可知這些微生物依靠鐵元素生存。
B
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇記敘文。文章記述了作者請一位家長做志愿者的故事。文章側重社會服務和人際溝通素養的培養。
5．答案與解析：C　推理判斷題。本題題干意為：從第一段那位家長的回答中我們可以推斷出關于她的什么？文章中，那位家長的回答是“你可以把我作為最后一個選擇，如果沒有其他人愿意當志愿者，那么我就做”。根據其回答可以知道，她其實是不太愿意做志愿者的，故C項正確。
6．答案與解析：B　詞義猜測題。本題題干意為：第二段中的畫線短語“tug at the heartstrings”的意思是什么？根據上下文可知，此處表示“我”又試了一次，這回開始打感情牌。畫線短語意為“觸動心弦”，故B項正確。A：鼓勵團隊合作；C：促進良好行為；D：提供建議。
7．答案與解析：D　推理判斷題。本題題干意為：從第三段中，我們能夠得知那位家長的什么情況？在文章的第三段，作者記述了那位家長在活動中所做的事情，即安排飲食計劃、發送郵件、募集資金等，她成了團隊中一個重要的成員。因此D項(她成了一個好助手)正確。
