1、（理工B类）23年完形填空1-12篇含新增内容及答案第一篇 Captain Cook Arrow Legend库克船长箭传说It was a great legend while it lasted，but DNA testing has (1) finally ended a two-century-old story of the Hawaiian arrow carved from the bone of British explorer Captain James Cook(2) who died in the Sandwich Islandsin 1779. “There is (3
2、) no Cook in the Australian Museum，museum collection manager Jude Philip said not long ago in announcing the DNA evidence that the arrow was not made of CookS bone.But that will not stop the museum from continuing to display the arrow in its(4) exhibition ，“Uncovered：Treasures of the Australian Muse
3、um,” which(5) does include a feather cape presented to Cook by Hawaiian King Kalaniopuu in 1778. Cook was one of Britains great explorers and is credited with(6) discovering the“Great South Land，(7) now Australia, in 1 770.He was clubbed to death in the Sandwich Islands，now Hawaii。The 1egend of Cook
4、s arrow began in 1824 (8) when Hawaiian King Kamehameha on his deathbed gave the arrow to William Adams，a London surgeon and relative of Cooks wife，saying it was made of Cooks bone after the fatal(9) fight with islanders. In the 1890s the arrow was given to the Australian Museum and the legend conti
5、nued (10) until it came face=to-face with science. DNA testing by laboratories in Australia and New Zealand revealed the arrow was not made of Cooks bone but was more (11) likely made of animal bone。said Philp. However, Cooks fans (12) refuse to give up hope that one Cook legend will prove true and
6、that part of his remains will still be uncovered.as they say there is evidence not a11 of Cooks body was (13) buried at sea in 1 779.“On this occasion technology has won，”said Cliff Thornton，president of the Captain Cook Society, in a (14) statement from Britain.“But I am (15) surethat one of these
7、daysone of the Cook legends will prove to be true and it will happen one day.第二篇 Avalanche and Its Safety雪崩和它旳安全 An avalanche is a sudden and rapid flow of snow, often mixed with air and water, down a mountainside. Avalanches are (1) among the biggest dangers in the mountains for both life and prope
8、rty. All avalanches are caused by an over-burden of material, typically snowpack, that is too massive and unstable for the slope (2) that supports it. Determining the critical load, the amount of over-burden which is (3)likely to cause an avalanche, (4) is a complex task involving the evaluation of
9、a number of factors. Terrain slopes flatter than 25 degrees or steeper than 60 degrees typically have a low (5)risk of avalanche. Snow does not (6)gather significantly on steep slopes; also, snow does not (7)flow easily on flat slopes. Human-triggered avalanches have the greatest incidence when the
10、snows angle of rest is (8)between 35 and 45 degrees; the critical angle, the angle at which the human incidence of avalanches is greatest, is 38 degrees. The rule of thumb is: A slope that is (9) flat enough to hold snow but steep enough to ski has the potential to generate an avalanche, regardless
11、of the angle. Additionally, avalanche risk increases with (10) use ; that is, the more a slope is disturbed by skiers, the more likely it is that an avalanche will occur. Due to the complexity of the subject, winter travelling in the backcountry is never 100% safe. Good avalanche safety is a continu
12、ous (11) process , including route selection and examination of the snowpack, weather (12) conditions , and human factors. Several well-known good habits can also(13) reduce the risk. If local authorities issue avalanche risk reports, they should be considered and all warnings should be paid (14) at
13、tention to. Never follow in the tracks of others without your own evaluations; snow conditions are almost certain to have changed since they were made. Observe the terrain and note obvious avalanche paths where plants are （15）missing or damaged. Avoid traveling below others who might trigger an aval

They may use(2)differentcurrencies, but these countries, and probably all countries,
15、 still have one thing in common1: Germs on the banknotes.Scientists have been studying the germs on money for well over2 100 years. At the turn of the 20th(3)century, some researchers began to suspect that germs living on money could spread disease.Most studies of germy money have looked at the germ
16、s on the currency(4) within one country. In a new study, Frank Vriesekoop3 and other researchers compared the germ populations found on bills of different(5) countries .Vriesekoop3 is a microbiologist at the University of Ballarat in Australia4. He led the study, which compared the germ populations found on money(6) gatered from 10 nations. The scientists studied 1,280 banknotes in total; all came fro
