　　Caribbean Islands

　　What would you see if you took a cruise to the Caribbean Islands? Palm trees and coconuts(椰子)? White beaches and clear, blue ocean? Colorful corals (珊瑚) and even more colorful fishes and birds?

　　You bet. There are thousands of islands in the Caribbean Sea. They are famous for their warm, tropical climate and great natural beauty.

　　The Caribbean Islands form a chain that separates the Caribbean Sea from the rest of the Atlantic Ocean.1 Many of the islands were formed by the eruption (爆發(fā)) of ancient volcanoes (火山). Others are low-lying coral islands that gradually rose from the ocean.

　　The Caribbean Islands are known by several names.2 The explorer Christopher Columbus called the islands the Indies in 1492 because he thought he was near the coast of India. Later, Spain and France called the islands the Antilles.

　　There are four large islands in the Caribbean Sea.3 These four islands are often called the Greater Antilles. Together, they account for about 90 percent of the land area of the Caribbean Islands.

　　The rest of the Caribbean Islands are much smaller.4 You can see why pirates such as the famous Blackbeard sailed these waters. There are countless small islands to bury treasure or hide on.

　　The weather of the Caribbean Sea is almost always warm and sunny. Sandy beaches line the coasts of many islands.5. Many tourists arrive on cruise ships.

　　A. But life on the Caribbean Islands is not always paradise.

　　B. The earliest name used by Europeans is the Indies, later changed to the West Indies.

　　C. They're like a long necklace that stretches between North and South America.

　　D. They are Cuba, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, and Hispaniola.

　　E. This is why millions of tourists visit the islands each year.

　　F. Some of these islands are no more than tiny slivers (小片) of exposed coral.

　　2017年職稱(chēng)英語(yǔ)試題《衛(wèi)生C》補(bǔ)全短文專(zhuān)項(xiàng)練習(xí)題答案及解析

　　1. C。第三段的第一句話(huà)說(shuō)的是：加勒比群島形成了一個(gè)鎖鏈，把加勒比海與大西洋的其他部分分開(kāi)。有可能構(gòu)成答案的是C和D。因?yàn)樗鼈兊牡谝粋€(gè)詞都是“they”，該詞指theCaribbean Islands。但是，“the Caribbean Islands只有古巴等四個(gè)國(guó)家組成”不符合實(shí)際情況，因此C是正確的。

　　2. B。第四段的第一句話(huà)(主題句)說(shuō)的是：加勒比群島有好幾個(gè)名字。這是一個(gè)總的概括，緊接著應(yīng)該是具體的說(shuō)明。B是具體說(shuō)明：歐洲人最早用的名字是印度群島(theIndies)，后來(lái)叫作西印度群島(the West Indies)。

　　3. D。第五段的第一句話(huà)說(shuō)的是：加勒比海有四個(gè)大的島嶼。這是一個(gè)總的說(shuō)明。下面應(yīng)是列舉，D就是列舉。

　　4. F。第六段的第一句話(huà)說(shuō)的是：加勒比群島中的其他島嶼小得多。接著應(yīng)該是進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明，F(xiàn)是進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明。

　　5. E。最后一段講加勒比海天氣溫暖、陽(yáng)光充裕，許多島嶼的海岸有沙灘。這樣的自然環(huán)境顯然會(huì)吸引旅游者。故選E。
