Read each passage carefully, and then do the questions that follow. Choose the best answer from the four choices given and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring Answer Sheet. Passage One Justin was always prepared. His motto was "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy." His bedroom was so full of fiat bicycle tires, bent tennis rackets, deflated basketballs, and games with missing pieces that you could barely get in the door. His parents pleaded with him to clean out his room. "What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?" his father asked. But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto, "Never throw anything out, you never know when it might come in handy." When Justin was away from home, he always carried his blue backpack. He liked to think of it as a smaller version of his bedroom--a place to store the many objects that he collected. It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore. It was full of the kind of things that seemed unimportant, but when used with a little imagination, might come in handy. Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations. Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem. On the first day of school, his friend Kenny, came looking for Justin. "Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?" he asked. "I lost the scrap of paper it was written on. I have science class in two minutes and if I'm late on the first day it'll make me look bad for the rest of the year." Kenny looked genuinely worried. "Relax," Justin said, taking his backpack off and unzipping the top. "Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the combination down? Well, I know how we can recover what you wrote." He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag. The page that Kenny had written on had left faint indentations (印凹痕 ) on another page in the notebook. Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the indentations. Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white, set off by the gray pencil rubbings. "That's amazing!" Kenny said. "I owe you one." And he dashed off to open his locker. 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢6 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 51. Why is Justin's room such a mess? A. He always forgets to clean it. B.

A. inform B. entertain C. educate D. satirize Passage Two Only moments after announcing a policy of zero tolerance on cellphone use in the classroom, Ali Nazemi heard a ring. Nazemi, a business professor at Roanoke College in Virginia, took out a hammer and walked towards a young man. He smashed the offending device. Students' faces turned white all over the classroom. This episode reflects a growing challenge for American college teachers in, as the New York Times puts it, a "New Class (room) War: Teacher vs. Technology". Fortunately, the smashed-phone incident had been planned ahead of time to demonstrate teachers' anger at inattentive students distracted by high-tech gadgets. At age 55, Nazemi stands on the far shore of a new sort of generational divide between teacher and student. The divide separates those who want to use technology to grow smarter from those who want to use it to get dumber. Perhaps there's a nicer way to put it. "The baby boomers seem to see technology as information and communication," said Michael Bugeja, the author of Interpersonal Divide: the Search for Community in a Technological Age. "Their 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢7 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 children seem to see the same devices as entertainment and socializing." All the advances schools and colleges have made to supposedly enhance learning have instead enabled distraction. Bugeja's online survey of several hundred students found that a majority had used their cell phones, sent or read e-mail, and logged onto social-network sites during class time. A quarter of the respondents admitted they were taking the survey while sitting in a different class. The Canadian company Smart Technologies makes and sells a program called SynchronEyes. It allows a classroom teacher to monitor every student's computer activity and to freeze it at a click. Last year, the company sold more than 10,000 licenses. The biggest problem, said Nancy Knowlton, the company's chief executive officer, is staying ahead of students trying to crack the program's code. "There's an active discussion on the Web, and we're monitoring it." Knowlton said. "They keep us on our toes." 57. Prof. Nazemi smashed the student's cellphone with a hammer because ______. A. students in his class didn't listen to his announcement B. he hated new gadgets such as cellphones C. he no longer tolerated cellphone use in the classroom D. he wanted to show how distractive the cellphone was 58. According to the passage high-tech gadgets can make youngsters ______. A. more intelligent B. more stupid C. study more easily D. get more information 59. "The baby boomers" in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ______. A. the generation of people like All Nazemi B. the generation of people like All Nazemi's students C. the very young babies D. the people who were born in the 1980s 60. All the following statements are true EXCEPT ______. A. schools have used advanced devices to enhance students' learning B. many students use their cellphones during class time C. young people see the interpersonal devices as toys D. schools' advanced facilities are effectively used by students 61. The biggest problem for the Canadian company Smart Technologies is ______. A. students may soon decode their program SynchronEyes B. whether they have the right to allow teachers to monitor students C. they must sell the program without the students' knowing of it D. they have to discuss whether the SynchronEyes is useful on the Web 62. The best title of this passage is ______. 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢8 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 A. Different Opinions Between Teachers and Students B. Classroom Chaos over Gadget Use C. The Development of Classroom Wars D. Keep Us on Our Toes Passage Three Hand in hand with the one you love, you gaze at the horizon to watch the earth rise. It sounds like science fiction, but companies around the world are working hard to make this sort of holiday a reality. The idea of space tourism has been around for nearly forty years now. At first NASA made plans for the ultimate in holiday destinations, but then private companies became involved in the mid- 1980s. The Challenger shuttle disaster of 1986 postponed their plans, but now space is back as a future holiday resort. The Hilton hotel group has produced ambitious and serious plans for hotels on the moon, as well as orbiting hotels, hoping to give their space tourists' different holiday experience. But zero-gravity will be a little uncomfortable. "There will be space motion sickness in the first few days, with headaches and nausea." says George Turner, a hopeful space tour operator. Hotels will try to prevent these problems by providing areas with the sensation of gravity. This means going to parts of the hotel that will be spinning. Centrifugal (离心的) force will push you against the wall, and give the feeling of some weight. Since it will be possible to lie down, many people will probably prefer to sleep in these areas. The alternative will be to strap themselves into a sleeping bag attached to a wall. Sunbathing will be possible, but will require some very strong sunscreen protection factor. 1,000 will do it. However the plans all depend on one thing: cheap space travel. At the moment the only re-usable rocket is NASA's space shuttle. The cost of each shuttle launch is U.S. $1 billion. A space craft that only costs U.S. $2 million per launch is what the travel industry is looking for. So far that remains a far-off dream, but it may come a lot closer if someone wins the X-Prize. Launched in 1997, the X-Prize offers U.S. $10 million to anyone who can build a re-usable space craft. All you have to do is launch three people 100 km into space twice within three weeks. So far 16 companies are racing to win the prize money. But the real prize will be the income from space tourism, estimated to be U.S.$12 billion per year: as Turner explains: "Just think what you'll be able to tell your friends that you had a holiday that was really out of this world!" 63. The idea of spending holidays in space ______. 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢9 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 A. was first proposed by NASA in the mid-1980s B. had been questioned by NASA for nearly 40 years C. became appealing to private companies in the mid-1980s D. drew the attention of private companies four decades ago 64.

A. why it is possible to make space tourism a reality B. what should be done to prepare for space tourism C. the plans for space tourism and the existing problems D. the opportunities and challenges posed by space tourism Passage Four Defending the French language from the creeping invasion of English has long been a favorite pastime of France's elite. In 2006 Jacques Chirac walked out of a Brussels summit in protest at a Frenchman speaking in English. It is a point of national pride to protect French music, film, even advertising, from the corrupting influence of English. So why are the French giving up the struggle? As French children filed back to school on September 2nd, Xavier Darcos, the education minister, announced that he was increasing English-language teaching in the curriculum. "I've had enough of hearing that the French do not learn English," he said. "It's a big disadvantage for international competition." By the end of compulsory schooling, he promised, all pupils should be bilingual. The French are embracing English in less high-minded ways too. When they entered a song in English at this year's Eurovision song contest, it provoked ironic amusement abroad, but indifference at home. In fact for many young French musicians singing in English is now even de rigueur. "The children of globalization are giving up writing in 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢10 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 French," declared Le Monde, the bible of the French elite without apparent regret. Despite rules requiring advertising slogans in English to be sub-titled, French manufacturers still borrow English words. France's fashion press is another cross-dresser, writing of "Vive la fashion attitude". In a post-modern twist, teenagers are importing American slang via the heavily north African suburbs, where hip-hop flourishes and street dress is styled on New York city. Once this might have had official France speaking with indignation. The rules designed to fend off English remain--and are an obstacle to new musicians who do not qualify for the quota of radio time reserved for singers in French. Yet in the globalized, internet age, the French seem to realize, as Mr Darcos put it, that the losers from a refusal to learn English are themselves--and that speaking it need not make them less French. Part of this is down to Mr Chirac's successor, Nicolas Sarkozy, who, although no linguist, rejects the anti-Americanism that adds much hostility to English. Appropriately, the new album by his wife Carla Bruni, has a track in English--presumably not one his predecessor will listen to. 69. According to the education minister Xavier Darcos,______. A. French pupils will benefit from more English learning B. it is necessary to protect the French language in schools C. compulsory English lessons may not be as good as expected D. globalization has put the French language at an advantage 70. What does the phrase "de rigueur" in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Problematic. B. Unsuccessful. C. Tolerable. D. Proper. 71. It can be learned that le Monde ______. A. strongly supports the use of English B. is worrying about the rapid spread of English C. feels sorry that the French prefer English over French D. considers it acceptable for the French to use more English 72. Which of the following fields is NOT mentioned to demonstrate the rising English influence? A. Music. B. Commerce. C. Advertising. D. Fashion. 73. Compared with Mr. Chirac, President Sarkozy ______ Frenchman's using English. A. is more critical of B. cares too much about C. gives more support to D. gains more profits from 74. The best title for the passage is "______". A. The never-ending battle to defend the French language B. Predominance of the English language in modern France C. The French hostility to the English language is relaxed D. Tension emerged between the French and English languages Passage Five 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢11 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 For much of its history, psychology has seemed obsessed with human failings and pathology. The very idea of psychotherapy, first formalized by Freud, rests on a view of human beings as troubled creatures in need of repair. Freud himself was profoundly pessimistic about human nature, which he felt was governed by deep, dark drives that we could hardly control. The scientists who followed developed a model of human life that seemed to many mechanical if not robotic: humans were passive beings harshly shaped by the stimuli and the rewards and punishments that surrounded them. After World War Ⅱ, psychologists tried to explain how so many ordinary citizens could have agreed with fascism, and did work symbolized in the 1950 classic The Authoritarian Personality by T.W. Adorno, et al. Social psychologists followed on. Some of the most famous experiments proved that normal folk could become coldly insensitive to suffering when obeying "legitimate" orders or cruelly aggressive when playing the role of prison guard. A watershed moment arrived in 1998, when University of Pennsylvania psychologist Martin Seligman, in his presidential address to the American Psychological Association, urged psychology to "turn toward understanding and building the human strengths to complement our emphasis on healing damage." That speech launched today's positive psychology movement. Though not denying humanity's flaws, the new positive psychologists recommend focusing on people's strengths and virtues as a point of departure. Rather than analyze the psychopathology underlying alcoholism, for example, positive psychologists might study the toughness of those who have managed a successful recovery--for example, through organizations like Alcoholics Anonymous. Instead of viewing religion as a delusion and a support, as did Freud, they might identify the mechanisms through which a spiritual practice like meditation enhances mental and physical health. Their lab experiments might seek to define not the conditions that induce wicked behavior, but those that foster generosity, courage, creativity, and laughter. Seligman's idea quickly caught on. The Gallup Organization founded the Gallup Positive Psychology Institute to sponsor scholarly work in the field. In 1999, 60 scholars gathered for the first Gallup Positive Psychology Summit; two years later, the conference went international, and ever since has drawn about 400 attendees annually. 75. Psychotherapy is based on the idea that human beings ______. A. are suffering B. often lie C. are eager to control each other D. can effectively control themselves 76. According to Freud, human nature ______. A. was positive on the whole 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢12 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 B. was controlled by secret desires C. was inclined to control other people D. was becoming worse and worse 77. The research discussed in the second paragraph showed that ______. A. compassion was essential to human nature B. fascism had brought disasters to human nature C. suffering could not change human nature D. man could be harsh by nature 78. What does the passage say about positive psychology? A. It stresses that human nature is perfect. B. It rejects the role of religion. C. It began in 1998. D. It began in 1950. 79. What may be an example of "wicked behavior"(Para. 4)? A. Making a toy. B. Giving money to the poor. C. Drinking without control. D. Believing in a religion. 80. What does the passage say about Martin Seligman? A. His idea was hard for many people to understand. B. He stressed the role of good human qualities. C. He founded the Gallup Organization. D. His idea caused a lot of controversy. PAPER TWO PART Ⅴ TRANSLATION Section A Directions: Put the following paragraph into Chinese. Write your Chinese version in the proper space on Answer Sheet Ⅱ. When dominant innovators in a science respond to the challenge of a situation that demands some change in its practice, this may take a number of forms, and rival schools may grow up around different leaders responding differently to a particular situation. These rivalries may be reinforced and perpetuated by the use of standard textbooks. Any empirical science must be able to cope with its own phenomena, and once any observation is accepted as relevant, its theory and modes of description and analysis must be able to handle it with scientific adequacy, of which exhaustiveness, consistency, economy are basic principles. The extension of a science to new but relevant fields may require the further elaboration and presentation of existing theory along previously-followed lines.

Man: Do you know what you want to do when you finish your degree? Woman: I'll ask you if I ever need your advice. Question: What does the woman mean? 2. Woman: Hi, Jack! How about your trip to the mountain? Man: Oh, terrific! After climbing the mountain, standing on the top of it, we felt that the view took our breath away. Question: What does the man mean? 3. Woman: You should go to see the new movie. They are going to hold it over only for another 2 days. Man: Mm, normally I wouldn't but as you recommend it so strongly.

Question: What does the man mean? 6. Woman: Why do you treat Chris like that? He is your friend, isn't he? Man: Friend? He often speaks ill of me, and I think it's time to pay him back in his own coin. Question: What does the man mean? 7.

Woman: Given more time, I'm sure I would have done a good job. Man: I know you wish you'd handled the project more efficiently, but there's no use crying over spilt milk. Question: What can be inferred from the conversation? 9. Man: John must have been joking when he said that he was going to live in Boston. Woman: Don't be so sure. He told me that he was looking for an agent to sell his house. Question: What do we learn about John? Section B Directions: In this section you will hear two mini- talks. At the end of each talk, there will be some questions. Both the talks and the questions will be read to you only once. After each question, there will be a pause. During the pause, you must choose the best answer from the four choices given by marking the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring Answer Sheet. Mini-talk One Do you live in a happy country? Chances are strong that you do. Results of a recent study have shown that many people around the world are happier now than in the past. The study is called the World Values Survey. Researchers responsible for the study are based at the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research in the United States. The researchers gathered information from opinion studies done in more than ninety countries or territories. Those studies were 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢16 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 completed between nineteen eighty-one and two thousand seven. More than three hundred fifty thousand people told how happy or unhappy they were feeling. They also said how generally satisfied or unsatisfied they felt. The results were reported in the publication "Perspectives on Psychological Science." University of Michigan political scientist Ronald Inglehart directed the World Values Survey. Mister Inglehart says the results surprised him. He said it is widely believed that it is nearly impossible for happiness levels for a whole country to improve. He said many earlier studies have suggested that happiness levels do not really change. Denmark was found to be the world's happiest country. Mister Inglehart notes that Denmark's health care is good and few Danes are hungry. Zimbabwe was rated as the least happy country. Zimbabweans have suffered from political and social unrest. Other nations in the top ten for happiness include Iceland, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada and Colombia. Colombia suffers from violence in some areas. But Mister Inglehart says Colombians share strong family, friendship and religious ties. He says those qualities are common in areas along the Caribbean Sea. And he says they help balance economic and political weakness. Also, America's Central Intelligence Agency says the Colombian government has been working harder to control the violence. Q10: What is the name of the study on people's happiness in different countries? Q11: What does the study show? Q12: Why was Denmark found to be the world's happiest country? Mini-talk Two Currently, the most modern systems for predicting earthquakes find them only a short time before the event. Like most strong earthquakes, the one that hit southwestern China in May was not identified early enough for people to flee the area. That earthquake killed sixty-nine thousand people. But scientists who study earthquakes are reporting that new technology could measure very small changes below ground in the Earth's surface. Their report was published in September in Nature magazine. Fenglin Niu is an earthquake expert with Rice University in Houston, Texas. He and his team performed experiments along California's San Andreas Fault, an area famous for its many earthquakes. The team placed highly sensitive electrical devices about one kilometer below ground in two different places. The devices were able to measure even small changes in air pressure below ground. The scientists say such changes are caused when rocks push together, 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢17 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 forcing air out of small cracks in the rock. When this happens, earthquake waves travel faster than usual through the rock. The experiment was performed near Parkfield, California. Two earthquakes hit the area in late two thousand five. The first took place on December twenty- fifth. A smaller earthquake struck five days later. The scientists noted changes below ground about ten hours before the first quake struck. That quake measured three in intensity. They then found similar changes taking place two hours before the other quake struck five days later. The earthquake in China rated seven point nine in intensity. If additional tests confirm the changes are linked to earthquakes, the scientists believe their equipment could be used for early warning systems. A system that provides a signal ten hours before a major earthquake could help move people from the area and save lives. The scientists now hope they can find earthquakes with even greater intensity by placing their equipment deeper in the ground. Q13: How can the new technology predict the coming earthquake? Q14: What causes the changes in air pressure below ground? Q15: How can the new technology save people's lives? Section C Directions: In this section you will hear a short lecture. Listen to the recording and complete the notes about the lecture. You will hear the recording twice. After the recording you are asked to write down your answers on the Answer Sheet. You now have 25 seconds to read the notes below. Doctors around the world now perform more than two hundred thirty million major operations every year. The World Health Organization says preventable injuries and deaths from medical operations are a growing concern. Experts estimate that at least one million people die every year because of complications from surgical treatments. The WHO says studies suggest that about half of these problems may be preventable. The United Nations agency hopes to reduce mistakes with a program built around a new Surgical Safety Checklist. Atul Gawande works at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts. He helped develop the Safe Surgery Saves Lives program. Doctor Gawande and other researchers studied records from fifty-six countries. In two thousand four, surgical complications in developed countries led to death in less than one percent of cases. In developing countries, the rate was five to ten percent. Complications can happen during an operation or after. For example, an infection might develop after an operation. 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢18 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 More than two hundred medical societies and health ministries have joined in the effort to make surgery safer. The new list is similar to what airplane pilots use before flying. One member of the surgical team is responsible for the checklist. The very first step is to confirm the patient's identity and the operation to be performed. More questions are asked before the first cut. All members of the team are supposed to identify themselves by name and job. Another step is to confirm whether the patient was given antibiotic drugs within the last hour to prevent infection. The third and final part of the checklist is completed before the patient leaves the operating room. For example, surgical equipment is counted to make sure nothing unnecessary stays in the patient.

第三段最后一句说:被誉为法国精英阶层圣经的《世界报》说“全球化时代的孩子正在放弃写法语”时并没有带着明显的遗憾。说明《世界报》认为这是可以接受的。 72.B 第三段提到了音乐。第四段提到了广告和时尚媒体。没有提到英语对商业的影响。 73.C

第二段主要介绍了对二战时认同法西斯的普通民众的研究。一些著名实验证明普通人在执行“合法”命令时会漠视别人的苦难,在扮演狱卒的角色时会具有残忍的攻击性。也就是说人的本性可能是残酷的。 78.C 第三段谈到心理学研究的转折点出现在1998年。Martin Saligman在美国心理协会的主席发言中鼓励心理学研究“朝着理解和发扬人类优点,协助减轻伤害的方面发展。”这个发言开启了积极心理学运动。 79.C 第四段主要介绍了积极心理学和传统心理学的差异。传统心理学更注重人的缺点,而积极心理学在承认人的缺点的同时,更注重强调有利于改进的人的优点和好的品质。最后一句说:他们的实验追求的不是研究引发有害行为的条件,而是激励慷慨、勇气、创造力和欢乐的条件。这里“wicked behavior'’指的是有害的行为。 80.B

[汉译英难点说明] 1.注意spend的使用特点:spend time doing something/spend time on something/spend money on something都是正确的,但不要使用spend time to do something。使用比较级时,同一个介词需要重复,如depend as much on parents as on friends/learn more from teachers than from books。该句不能使用take。翻译第一句时,许多学生受汉语影响,句子以time开头,把句子翻译为the time Chinese students spend on English is much more than that spent on other courses,这样的思维方式应该避免。英文中比较时习惯以动作执行者作主语。例如,翻译“我这学期选的课是你的二倍”这句话时,最好不要说the courses I take this semester are twice as many as yours,不仅不符合语言习惯,也有错误的嫌疑,最好翻译为I take twice as many courses as you do this semester。 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢30 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 2.看到汉语词“需要”时,学生往往首先想到英语单词need,而不考虑上下文。实际上,不同的“需要”有不同的译法,表示“需要”的英语词有need、require、demand、call for、involve、take、entail、necessitate。“英语需要泛读”中的“需要”最好用require或call for。既然require往往要求接名词,“记忆”和“复习”就应该用memorization和revision,所以“经常”不能翻译成often。翻译“某件事需要做……”时可用involve doing something,如this operation involves repairing blood vessels。使用involve(涉及)时要小心词形,本段中的句子不能写成exercises involved/involved in the multiple choice,而应该使用involving,同样,表达“参与”时,不能使用involve something或involve in something,而应使用be(get)involved in。 3.翻译“让某人做……”时,国内学生倾向于使用let或make,忽略了have somebody do something这个用法。 4.表达“出乎意料的结果”时,英语中常用only to do...来表达,没必要使用as a result或consequently。 5.有些抽象名词习惯上接不定式充当定语(也有人称为同位语),其他一些名词接of doing...作定语,还有几个名词接两者都可。第一类名词主要有ability、attempt、courage、decision、determination、eagerness、effort、endeavor、failure、hope、inability、inclination、need、power、right、reluctance、request、willingness。“主动使用英语的能力”最好翻译为the ability to use English actively。 sunry@bistu.edu.cn 中 国 地 理 一、概况 1.地理位置和范围 海陆位置:亚洲东部,太平洋西岸。临渤海-黄海-东海-南海,内海为渤海和琼州海峡,黄海、渤海全部分布在大陆架、东海大部分、南海一部分。海岸线长18000多千米。 经纬度位置:4°N-53°N(分属热带和北温带),73°E-135°E(分属五个时区)。 范围:北至黑龙江主航道中心线;南至南沙群岛的曾母暗沙; 西至新疆帕米尔高原;东至黑龙江和乌苏里江主航道中心线交汇处。 2.邻国:14个陆上邻国(陆界长2万多千米),6个隔海相望国家。 3.行政区划:34个省级行政单位,包括23个省5个自治区4个直辖市2个特别行政区。 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢31 精品好文档,推荐学习交流 4.民族: 56个民族,汉族人口最多,少数民族中人口最多的壮族(满、回、苗、维吾尔、彝、土家、蒙古、藏)。 各民族大杂居、小聚居。汉族分布遍及全国,集中在东部、中部。 少数民族集中分布在西南、西北、东北等边疆地区,云南、贵州、广西、新疆等是我国少数民族聚居的省区。 5.人口:东部人口多,人口密度较大;西部人口少,人口密度小。人口密度线:黑龙江黑河至云南的腾冲一线。 农村人口比重仍然偏大。城市发展政策:严格控制大城市规模,合理发展中小城市,建设新型乡镇,大小城市有机结合,城乡人口合理布局。 侨乡:广东、福建。人口方面的基本国策:控制人口数量,提高人口素质。 二、地形 1.地形的总体特征:地势西高东低,呈阶梯状分布;地形多种多样,山区面积广大(2/3)。 海拔(米) 主要地形类型 第一级阶梯 4000米以上 高原 界线:昆仑山——祁连山——横断山 第二级阶梯 1000~2000米 高原、盆地 界线:大兴安岭——太行山——巫山——雪峰山 第三级阶梯 500米以下 平原、丘陵 ①关注:阶梯交界处的水电站 ②我国沿不同经纬度的地形剖面图:沿经线作剖面:30°N、38°N、45°N沿纬线作剖面:90°E、100°E、110°E 2.地形地势对气候河流的影响 利于湿润空气深入内地形成降水; 地势对气使许多大河自西向东流、沟通东西交通; 河流从高一级阶梯流入低一级阶梯地段,落差大,产生巨大水候 能; 3.主要山脉——构成地形骨架,成为地形区之间的分界线(结合地形图) 东西走向:北:天山—阴山; 中:昆仑山—秦岭; 南:南岭 东北—西南走向:东:台湾山; 中:长白山—武夷山; 西:大兴安岭—太行山—巫山—雪峰山 弧形山脉:喜马拉雅山世界最雄伟,主峰珠穆朗玛峰位于中国、尼泊尔边境,海拔8848米 其他走向:西北——东南走向:阿尔泰山、祁连山; 南北走向:横断山脉、贺兰山 注意:跨三级阶梯的山脉——秦岭; 位于第三级阶梯的山脉:长白山、南岭、武夷山、台湾山脉。 省区界线附近的山脉:太行山(山西、河北) 贺兰山(内蒙古、宁夏) 武夷山(江西、福建)、 南岭(湖南、广东) 大巴山(四川、陕西) 巫山(重庆、湖北) 祁连山(甘肃、青海) 流域界线:巴颜喀拉山和秦岭(黄河、长江)、南岭(珠江、长江)、冈底斯山(雅鲁藏布江、怒江)、 仅供学习与交流,如有侵权请联系网站删除 谢谢32 本文来源:https://www.wddqw.com/doc/966b56e70608763231126edb6f1aff00bfd57054.html
