However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18 century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅰ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might beresponsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.(1)The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because ________.A: they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB: they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inC: they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD: they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease(2)Which of the following best describes Henry IV's attitude to bathing? A: Afraid.B: Curious.C: Approving.D: Uninterested.(3)How does the passage mainly develop?A: By providing examples.B: By making comparisons.C: By following the order of time.D: By following the order of importance.(4)What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A: To stress the role of dirt.B: To introduce the history of dirt.C: To call attention to the danger of dirt.D: To present the change of views on dirt.【答案】CACD【解答】(1)C 细节理解题。

ABrian arrived at the San Francisco airport two hours before the flight to Paris. He was wearing three shirts, a jacket, two pairs of socks, a pair of shorts, and two pairs of jeans. He was carrying one small backpack, which was very full, but he didn’t have any other luggage. Brian needed to meet a man named Tony before he checked in for his flight. He found Tony near the Air France counter. Tony gave him a round-trip ticket and a small package.“Give this package to Jean Paul at the airport in Paris. He will have a sign with your name on it. I think you can find him easily,” Tony said, “You don’t have any luggage, right?”“Only this backpack,” Brian answered. “You said I could bring one carry-on bag.”“That’s right. One carry-on bag is fine. Have a good trip.”“Thanks.”Is Brian a criminal(罪犯)?Not at all. He is an air-courier. And he paid only $110 for the round-trip ticket to Paris. Air-couriers get cheap airline tickets because they take important packages and papers to foreign countries. Businesses sometimes need to get packages and papers to people in foreign countries by the next day. Often, the only way they can do this is to use an air-courier company. It is not cheap for a business to send a package with an air-courier, but it is quick.Every year about 80,000 people worldwide travel as air-couriers. The number of tickets for the air-courier travel is growing by about 10 percent a year. However, air-courier travel isn’t for everyone. But if you have very little money, you can be flexible(灵活的) about your travel plans, and don’t mind wearing the same clothes for a week, it can be a great way to take a vacation! 26.Why was Brian wearing so many clothes for his travel?A.Because they were the uniforms for air-couriers.B.Because that made him easier to be recognized.C.Because his backpack had no room for his clothes.D.Because he did not have any luggage with him.27.An air-courier is a person who ________.A.manages a business company in foreign countriesB.organizes international flights for touristsC.travels around the world with cheap ticketsD.delivers papers and packages to foreign countries28.Businesses choose the air-courier service because ________.A.it costs less B.it is flexibleC.it saves time D.it grows fast29.One of the disadvantages of traveling as an air-courier is that he ________.A.cannot decide when and where to travelB.cannot take any luggage with himC.has to wear two pairs of jeansD.saves little money from the travel30.The author of the text mainly ________.A.describes the activities of a law-breakerB.suggests an ideal way to travelC.argues against the air-courier travelD.tells us about a developing businessBHow I Turned to Be OptimisticI began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then.I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see — the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost — having to study inthree schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”.My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule:almost all common troubles eventually go away!Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little!I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.31.How did the author get to know America?A.From her relatives. B.From her mother.C.From books and pictures. D.From radio programs.32.Upon leaving for America the author felt ________.A.confused B.excitedC.worried D.amazed33.For the first two years in New York, the author ________.A.often lost her way B.did not think about her future C.studied in three different schools D.got on well with her stepfather 34.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4?A.She worked as a translator. B.She attended a lot of job interviews. C.She paid telephone bills for her family. D.She helped her family with her English. 35.The author believes that ________.A.her future will be free from troublesB.it is difficult to learn to become patientC.there are more good things than bad thingsD.good things will happen if one keeps tryingCWhy do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reasoncould be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.“This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.36. The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to “________”.A. healthB. long lifeC. ageingD. effect37. The text mainly talks about ________.A. men’s heart cellsB. women’s ageing process、C. the gender differenceD. hearts and long life38. according to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.A. women have more cells than men when they are bornB. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC. the female heart loses few of the cells with ageD. women never lose their pumping power with age39. If you want to live longer, you should ________.A. enable your heart to beat much fasterB. find out the reason for ageingC. exercise regularly to keep your heart healthyD. prevent your cells from being lost40. We can know from the passage that ________.A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found outB. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cellsC. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater lossD. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20DWho says Americans worship the almighty dollar?It’s not true. Having enough free time is more important to most Americans than being rich, according to a new poll.Only 13 percent of more than 2,400 people questioned in the telephone poll ranked being wealthy as most important to them, while 67 percent ranked free time as their top priority, higher than having a successful career, getting married, and having children. “Everyone wants free time to do the things they want to do, young, middle-aged or old,” said Richard Morin, of the Pew Social & Demogra phic Trends Project, which conducted the survey. “So our desire to play unites us.”The poll also showed that people who were university educated valued career success over wealth, so did middle-aged people. Not surprisingly, those who didn’t have money, ranked wealth very highly. This included minorities, first generation Americans and less educated people. The survey also revealed that a disproportionate(不成比例的) number of people under the age of 30 and retirees in the group made $20,000 or less a year. But the emphasis on wealth lessens with age, with younger people putting value on it but hardly any seniors. “It just diminishes with time as the reality sets in that you would never be rich,” Morin said. “But also, the reality sets in that you don’t have to be rich to lead a very comfortable and fulfilling life.”While wealth was not at the top of people’s list of priorities, 43 percent still said it was somewhat important.41.The poll showed that the majority of American people ranked ________ as the most important.A.wealth B.a successful careerC.marriage D.free time42.Who cares least for wealth, according to the passage?A.Young people. B.Middle-aged people.C.Old people. D.Well-educated people.43.According to the poll, middle-aged people regarded ______ as more important. A.success in career B.education levelC.wealth D.comfort44.What is the belief of old people, according to the third paragraph?A.Wealth is as important to the old as health.B.One needs to put money away for his retired life.C.One doesn’t have to be rich to live a satisfying life.D.One would never get rich until he retires.45.The underlined word “diminishes” in the third paragraph probably means ________. A.increases B.decreases C.changes D.stays第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)请阅读下列应用文和相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。
[人物型阅读理解](限时:25分钟)APatti Page, the topselling female artist of the 1950s with more than 100 million records sold, died on January 2nd, 2013, when she was 85. She was one of the most beloved singers of the postwar era. Take her Tennessee Waltz for example, it sold more than 10 million copies and was her biggest hit.Born in Claremore, Oklahoma, a small town near Tulsa, Page originally dreamed of a career in commercial art. Her first job in the art department at a local radio station soon led to performing on her own 15minute programme.At the age of 20, Page was discovered by bigband leader Jack Rael, who quit his job to become her manager. In 1948, she signed her first recording contract with Mercury Records and two years later enjoyed her first hit record. She stayed with Mercury for the next 14 years and recorded hit after hit including: With My Eyes Wide Open, I'm Dreaming, and Old Cape Cod.Her last hit was Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte, recorded for the Bette Davis movie of the same name. And then, there was Doggie in the Window. The creative tune was a huge hit, but with its repeated barking sounds and silly lyrics(歌词), the song has been used by many people as an example of all that was wrong with pop music in the early 1950s.Throughout the 1950s, Patti Page made regular appearances on television variety shows and in 1957 she was chosen to host the musical programme, The Big Record. The following year, Page appeared in her own CBS television series, The Patti Page Show. She continued to record and perform into the 21st century, most recently releasing an album of songs for children, a Christmas record, and a new “best of” collection.Besides music, Patti Page did a bit of acting. She costarred with the Oscarwinning Burt Lancaster in Elmer Gantry, and also starred on stage in the musical play Annie Get Your Gun.1. According to the passage, Patti Page ________.A.wanted to be a singer as a childB.was born in a small town in 1927C.was known mainly for her acting skillsD.started her work as a TV programme hostess2. According to the passage, which one of her following recorded songs was criticized?A.Old Cape Cod.B.Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte.C.Doggie in the Window.D.With My Eyes Wide Open, I'm Dreaming.3. Tennessee Waltz is mentioned in the passage in order to show that ________.A.Patti Page was a beloved singerB.Patti Page's songs were successfulC.Patti Page was the topselling female artistD.Patti Page was good at recording songs4. We can know from the passage that Patti Page ________.A.got to know Jack Rael in 1945B.left Mercury Records at the age of 35C.appeared in The Patti Page Show in 1957D.wrote many songs for children in her late life5. It is inferred from the passage that ________.A.Patti Page gave up singing in public in her late lifeB.Patti Page's gift in art began to be shown in her teensC.Patti Page's great success was due to her hard work and others' helpD.Patti Page was not only a successful singer but also a successful actressBAmerican actor Johnny Depp can best be described as unconventional. From his early life, his path into acting and even in his choice of movie roles, we can see that Depp has seldom taken the easy road. His willingness to take risks and do the unexpected has made Depp one of the few Hollywood actors able to achieve huge commercial success while maintaining his artistic reputation.Born in 1963, Depp was somewhat troublesome as a youth, occasionally turning to pettycrime and drugs. When his parents divorced in 1978, Depp dropped out of school against his mother's wishes and started a music band called the Kids. Although the band achieved some success, they were seldom able to make_ends_meet,_with Depp often unable to pay his rent, sleeping on friends' sofas and even in his car.In 1983, the everoptimistic Depp and his new wife, Lori Anderson, moved to Hollywood, California to further Depp's musical career. But life there continued to be a struggle and Depp was forced to take a job selling pens door to door to support his new family. His luck changed when Lori's exboyfriend, the famous actor Nicholas Cage, impressed by Depp's good looks and intelligence, suggested he become an actor and helped him get a small part in a movie. Several other minor movie roles—and a divorce from Lori—followed, before Depp got his big break three years later. He landed the leading role in the television series 21 Jump Street, playing a youthful undercover police officer. The hugely popular show turned Depp into a teenage heartthrob overnight. He appeared on the cover of countless magazines and was much sought after by movie producers, eager to exploit his popularity with teenage girls.But Depp left 21 Jump Street after three years, when it was at the height of its popularity, later admitting that he hated the show's unoriginal storylines and his “pretty boy” character. In the decade that followed, Depp rejected repeated offers of “pretty boy” roles in bigbudget Hollywood films. Instead he established himself as a serious, somewhat dark, peculiar performer, consistently selecting roles in smaller, independent films that surprise critics and audiences alike.Even in the movie that made Depp an international superstar, The Pirates of the Caribbean(2003), he was barely recognizable as Captain Jack Sparrow, the British, longhaired goldentoothed pirate. This and subsequent hit movies have placed Deppat the very top of the commercial film industry (with a paycheck of $20 million for each such movie), but he still continues to make the smaller, stranger films for which he is so greatly admired.1. As a youth, Depp could be described as a ________.A.serious criminalB.trouble makerC.drug addictD.successful musician2. The underlined expression “make ends meet” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.get together after a showB.meet their audienceC.play to the endD.earn enough to live3. In which order did the following events take place in Depp's life?a. met Nicholas Cageb. started a band called the Kidsc. played a British pirated. sold pens door to doore. got married to Lori Andersonf. starred in a TV showA.d, b, e, a, c, fB.b, e, d, a, f, cC.a, b, f, c, d, eD.e, d, a, c, f, b4. Why did Depp leave the TV show 21 Jump Street?A.The show was no longer popular.B.He wanted to perform in movies.C.He thought the show was terrible.D.He rejected planned changes to his role.5. Depp's choice of movie roles throughout most of his career suggests that ________.A.he valued interesting work over moneyB.he believed he couldn't play “pretty boy” roles wellC.he was very popular with Hollywood movie producersD.he was more interested in shocking audiences than entertainingCGreg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Shoes (S. O. S.) charity.A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and theconfidence I got from running, ” he says,“And I realized there are children who don't even have shoes. ”Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas 2006. When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe d rive into a yearround endeavour.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from doortodoor pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation centre. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals(凉鞋). So far, S. O. S. has collected and donated more than 3, 000 pairs.Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the wor nout ones for recycling.To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We'd send kids balls and shoes. I've heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports. So Greg's running shoes were a nice addition for us.”For many recipients(接受者), the shoes represent opportunity. Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S. O. S., each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.1. What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?A.The benefits from playing sports.B.News about some poor children.C.His reflection on school life.D.The medical treatment he received.2. When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to________.A.include adult sizes and sandalsB.set up branches in different citiesC.collect shoes throughout the yearD.expand his endeavour in the whole city3. How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?A.By sending them by mail.B.By working with Sports Gift.C.By advertising for those in need.D.By offering them from door to door.4. What can we learn from Keven Baxter's remarks?A.Sports Gift is popular around the world.B.Many children need Greg's old sneakers.C.Greg's running shoes are the best gifts for children.D.Children need more soccer and baseball equipment than shoes.5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.An organized activityB.Greg Woodburn's lifeC.How to collect sneakersD.Recycled sneakers fit for sharing专题限时训练(十三) [故事型阅读理解](限时:25分钟)AI still remember—my hands and my fingers still remember—what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays. The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that it's done pro perly, and be quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you'll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe(贿赂) the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped not so much to make us work harder, but rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small—nothing compared to what they had done to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I don't know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating is completely foreign to our nature.1. Th e statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that “________”.A.the author's hands were severely injured in the cleaning upB.the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upC.the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning upD.the author's hands were his only tool for the cleaning2. The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because________.A.he was too lazyB.there were many fallen leaves on the groundC.the school yard was covered with mudD.the students didn't finish their homework3. The headmaster asked the older boys to________.A.beat those who worked slowlyB.treat the small boys as peanutsC.take charge of the process of the cleaningD.do the cleaning all by themselves4. According to Para.3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably________.A.gave it to the big boys so as to please themB.gave it as a bribe to the headmasterC.spent it all on his midday mealD.spent it buying midday meals for the big boys5. When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of ________.A.slight punishmentB.harsh criticismC.complete indifferenceD.good beatingBThe 30 miles of steep roads that snake through the mountains of Logan Canyon in Utah are enough to make most drivers' hands sweat. But Andersen, a 46yearold father of four, wasn't expecting any trouble on the road last New Year's Eve, when he set off for a ski trip to the Bear River Mountains with nineyearold daughter Mia, fouryearold son Baylor, and nineyearold n eighbour Kenya. Andersen had driven through the Canyon hundreds of times over the years.The weather was fine,but the higher they drove, the more slippery the roads became. Rounding a sharp Uturn at mile marker 473, Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and immediately tapped his brakes. In an instant, the car was sliding at 25 miles per hour towards the shoulder of the highway, then rolling down a steep tenfoot dam towards the extremely cold Logan River. As it hit the water, the car tipped towards the passenger side, hesitated, and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river.There was no time to tell the kids what to do. The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the upsidedown car was filled with water. “It was frightening how fast we were completely underwater,” remembers Andersen, a softspoken product development manager. “You're thinking, is this how it's all going to end?”Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn't find her. I thought,“If I don't get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That's when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they raced down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout atthe father, “Who else is in the car?” Andersen says respec tfully, “It_was_like_the_sight_of_angels_(天使). ”1. What might be the main reason for the car accident?A.The sharp Uturn.B.The steep dam.C.The sudden brake.D.A truck hitting the car.2. Andersen didn't expect any trouble on the road because ________.A.he was familiar with the roadB.he was good at drivingC.his hands didn't have sweatD.the weather was fine3. What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.Andersen lost conciousness in the water.B.Strangers helped Andersen out of the car.C.Andersen liked Mia most among the children.D.Strangers teamed together to save the three children.4. The underlined sentence is to express Andersen's feeling of being________.A.tiredB.excitedC.doubtfulD.grateful5. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A.Stay calm when in troubleB.Drive rounding a UturnC.Miracle rescue from an icy riverD.Mystery of the Bear River MountainsCDetective Keeling took his client—a goodlooking lady into the back yard of the store together. The lady opened a door in the wall and they entered the small room behind the store. They crossed the room to a locked door.Mr Keeling took some special keys from his pocket. Moments later, one of the keys unlocked the door. The lady went into the store. She said she would hide under the table to keep watch on her husband. Mr Keeling did not follow her.The detective went quickly to the policeman's house. Then the two men hurried to the jewellery store. They looked through the window. The policeman was surprised. He spoke to Mr Keeling,“I don't understand. You told me, ‘Robbins took a young woman to a restaurant.’ Where is she?”“There she is!” said Mr Keeling. He pointed through the window.“Do you know the lady with Robbins?” asked the policeman.“That's his secret friend,” said Mr Keeling.“No! You're wrong! That's Robbins' wife,” said the policeman. “I've known her for fifteen years.”“What?” the detective shouted. His face became pale. “Who is under the table in the store?”He started to kick the door of the jewellery store.Mr Robbins came to the door and opened it. The policeman and the detective ran into the store.“Look under that table!” shouted the detective. “Be quick!”The policeman lifted the cloth and put his arm under the table. He pulled out a black dress, a black veil and a woman's wig(假发).“Is this young lady your wife?” Mr Keeling asked the jeweller. He pointed at the woman.“Yes! She is my wife!” said Mr Robbins angrily. “Why did you kick my door? Why are those clothes under my table?”“Please check all the jewellery in your store, Mr Robbins,” the policeman said. “Is anything missing?”Some diamond rings and some expensive necklaces were missing. The missing jewellery was worth $800.Later that night, Mr Keeling was sitting in his office. He was looking through a big book of photographs. They were photographs of criminals. The policeman had brought the book to the detective's office. Suddenly, Mr Keeling stopped turning the pages. He looked at a picture of a handsome young man with a familiar face.The next morning, Mr Keeling paid the jeweller $800, then closed his office.1.

But these stations are expensive and sparsely (稀疏地) distributed. Additional sensors could save trees by providing better local climate data to be used in fire prediction models and earlier warnings. However, recharging or replaci ng batteries by hand at very hardtoreach locations makes it impractical and costly.The new sensor system seeks to avoid this problem by developing trees into a selfsustaining power supply. Each sensor is equipped with a battery that can be slowly r echarged using electricity produced by the tree. “A single tree doesn't generate a lot of power, but over time the trickle (细流) charge adds up, just like ‘________’”, said Shuguang Zhang, one of the researchers on the project and the associate director of the MIT's Centre for Biomedical Engineering (CBE).The system produces enough electricity to allow the temperature and humidity sensors to wirelessly send out signals four times a day, or immediately if there's a fire. Each signal spreads from one sensor to another, until it reaches an existing weather station that sends the data by satellite to a forestry command centre in Boise, Idaho.Scientists have long known that trees can produce extremely small amounts of electricity. But no one knew exactly how the energy was produced or how to take advantage of the power.1.What are the disadvantages of the remote automated weather stations?A.They cost too much.b.They are of poor quality.c.They are not enough.d.They can't reach remote places.A.a, b B.b, dC.a, c D.b, c2.Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank?A.Far water does not put out near fire.B.All rivers run into the sea.C.Many a little makes a mickle.D.It never rains but it pours.3.What Shuguang Zhang said in Paragraph 4 means that ________.A.a single tree is enough to generate much powerB.the power from the tree can't be storedC.trees can generate enough power for our lifeD.a tree can produce the electricity to meet the needs of a sensor4.What would the author talk about after the last paragraph of the passage?A.The amount of electricity trees produce.B.How trees produce electricity.C.Trees' contribution to society.D.The research process of tree power.5.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Preventing forest fires with tree powerB.Trees can produce electricityC.Tree power in daily lifeD.Developing new energyB(NEW YORK) A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a twoyearold girl in Manhattan said he didn't think twice before diving into the freezing East River.Tuesday's Daily News said 29yearold Julien Duret from France was the man who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Seaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dived in after him.“I didn't think at all,” Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast.I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier(码头) when he saw something falling into the water.He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. Immediately, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn't realize his story of heroism had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the city the next morning.“I don't really think I'm a hero,” said Duret. “Anyone would do the same thing.”1.Why was Duret in New York?A.To meet his girlfriend.B.To spend his holiday.C.To work as an engineer.D.To visit the Andersons.2.What did Duret do shortly after the ambulance came?A.He was interviewed by a newspaper.B.He went to the hospital in the ambulance.C.He disappeared from the spot quickly.D.He asked his girlfriend for his dry clothes.3.Who dived after Duret into the river to save the little girl?A.David Anderson.B.A passerby.C.His girlfriend.D.A taxi driver.4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Duret thought twice before he jumped into the cold water.B.Duret dived into the water before the girl's father.C.The rescue happened on the day Duret left for France.D.Duret didn't think he was brave enough to be a hero.5.What is probably the headline of this news report?A.A Careless FatherB.A Poor GirlC.Warmhearted OnlookersD.Brave Frenchman FoundCScientists have not found any signs of life on Mars yet, but they say a robotic vehicle called “Curiosity” is helping them learn a lot about the planet's history and climate.Curiosity landed on Mars in August 2012 after travelling through space for more than eight months. It was sent to Mars by scientists from NASA in the United States.Curiosity is about the size of a car and has six wheels. It also has a robotic arm, cameras, and instruments that allow it to examine things it finds on the surface. Then it sends the information back to the earth.Curiosity's main task is to find out if anything could live on Mars, either now or in the past. On Nov. 2, NASA scientists held a press conference (新闻发布会) to discuss what Curiosity had found in its first two months on Mars.Curiosity has found soil that is similar to the sand formed by volcanoes (火山) on the earth. Scientists say that studying the minerals in Martian soil will help them understand what conditions were like on the planet in the past. Curiosity also found smooth stones like the ones found on river beds and seashores on the earth, where their rough edges have been worn down by water. Mars is very cold and dry now, but scientists say the smooth stones tell them that a river used to run through the place where they were found.Curiosity has been testing the atmosphere around Mars for a type of gas called methane (甲烷), but so far it has not found any. On the earth, most methane is produced by plants or animals. Methane on Mars might indicate that some type of tiny plants or animals lived there.Curiosity is the fourth robotic vehicle to be sent to Mars. It will continue to explore the planet for about two years.1. Which of the following descriptions about Curiosity is TRUE?A.It landed on Mars in January 2012.B.It is small in size and has four arms.C.It took over eight months to arrive in Mars.D.It was sent to Mars by scientists from Russia.2. According to the information sent back by Curiosity, scientists believe that________.A.there's no air on MarsB.Mars is warm and wet nowC.the soil on Mars is richD.there used to be water on Mars3. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refers to“________”.A.smooth stonesB.riversC.robotic vehiclesD.volcanoes4. We know from the sixth paragraph that________.A.some tiny animals once lived on MarsB.there are no plants or animals on Mars nowC.the atmosphere around Mars is full of methaneD.Curiosity is designed to test the atmosphere around the earth5. What is the main idea of the passage?A.Humans benefit a lot by going to Mars.B.Scientists will stop the research on Mars soon.C.It is possible to build an earthlike environment on Mars.D.A robotic vehicle helps scientists get useful information from Mars.。

Suppose you are a secretary of the magazine CR (Crazy English Reader), for each one find a suitable reply from A-F. Mark the correct letter (A-F) on your answer sheet. There is one extra reply which you don’t need to use.1. I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your offering an opportunity to us beginners to practise using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain these articles and translated them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.2. I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I’ve been giving you a bit of a plug at our middle school. I told the students to “get a copy!” It’s good stuff! Fantastic!3. I’m one of Yao’s fans from Guangzhou. I have read the Yao Ming articles in No.7 Crazy English Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me? Thank you very much indeed.4. First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CE Reader editors who gave us a really good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the wordsmore accurately. Thank you!5. I am an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question that is how to say the position of the paper e.g., 总编责任编辑 and so on.I hope you can help me to tell me the word in English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now, I do this work, I need study more information about this work, if you have time, please email me. Thank you.A.Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it’s good to look up the words and then mark them down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.B.The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy of an all-English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I’ll try to answer.C.The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in sina. com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write Yao while he’s living and playing in Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at: Yao Ming Compaq Centre 10 Houston, TX 77046D.Thank you for being such a careful reader of CR. Yes, you’re right wemade a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep improving, so thank you.E.Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.F.Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We’re glad it’s helpful to your students. We always try to include articles that reflect real life. It’s our hope that CR will not only improve student’s English but also open up a different worldview.(3)The people below are all looking for a course on Chinese to study.

But packing won’t be a problem if you keep in mind one simple rule. Whether yo u’ll be sleeping overnight at a friend’s house, or visiting a relative for a week, the rule is: pack light. Here are some tips to help you pack.(4)The following people are expressing their thoughts (1--5) to show their concern for food, environment and so on.After that are pieces of related information (A--F) .Now decide which piece of information would be most suitable for the thought and idea mentioned in questions61---5 and mark your answer letter (A---F) on your answer sheet.There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use.______1.How I was struck by the clear water and fresh air in my childhood!But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh airare nowhere to be found again as they were. Above all, a greatdeal of waste hardly rots away.______2.More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forcesthe business to be cleaned up.______3.Organic products are getting more and more popular among people, but we should know the fact that organic products might also havesomething to do with pesticides.______4.I`m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becomingmore and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides.______5.Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked.A."Organic produce is always better, "Gold said."The food is free of pesticides(农药) ,and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty." Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.B.Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences - but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete.For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products.And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand."The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market, "said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business. C.Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted.Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem.One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of.D.However, today, more and more consumers are choosing "green" and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment.Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: "Will this shampoo damage the environment?" "Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?"E.Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds.Some supermarket products carry labels(标签) to show that the product is green.Some companies have made the manufacturing(制造) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising.F.The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business.No longer will the public accept the old attitude of "Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it." The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.(5)The people below are all trying to choose which TV programme to watch.

2023-2024学年广东广州人教版高考专题英语高考模拟1.阅读理解第1题.Many people have tried to simplify(简化)the spelling of English words. Unlike other languages, English sometimes spells the same sounds in very different ways. For example, there is "light" but "white", "loan" but "phone", and there are at least seven different ways of pronouncing "ough": "though", "through", "bough", "Cough","enough", "ought" and "thorough".The American President Theodore Roosevelt almost succeeded in simplifying English spelling. In 1906, Andrew Carnegie started the Simplified Spelling Board. He was one of the richest men in the United States of America. The board's plan was to make the spelling of words nearer to the way they sound. For example, the word "though" would be spelt "tho" and "through" would become "thru". Other people on the board were Melvil Dewey, the head of the New York libraries, and Professor Brander Matthews of Columbia University. They explained their idea to President Roosevelt, who thought that it was indeed logical. He immediately asked the government printer to use simplified spelling in all government letters.But people didn't like the change, even if it made life easier. So the new simpler spelling was not popular.More importantly, when the American politicians(政客)discussed the plan, they did not like it either.Because Roosevelt did not want to have any problems with the politicians, he changed his mind and told the printer to go back to the old way of spelling.Since then no one in any government has dared to simplify English spelling. However, people do simplify some words, mainly in advertisements. For example, we often see "tonite" instead of "tonight" and "thru" instead of "through".(1)Many people have tried to simplify English spelling because ________. A: English words are too long to rememberB: there are many mistakes in English wordsC: lots of words are spelt in many different waysD: sometimes the same sounds have different spellings(2)Who is NOT a member of the Simplified Spelling Board?A: Andrew Carnegie.B: Melvil Dewey.C: Theodore Roosevelt.D: Brander Matthews.(3)What was Theodore Roosevelt's attitude towards simplified spelling? A: Worried.B: Supportive.C: Uncertain.D: Doubtful.(4)According to the passage, simplified spelling ________.A: was welcomed by the US politiciansB: changed the way the words soundC: has been used widely for over a centuryD: was first used in US government letters(5)Roosevelt's plan to simplify English spelling ________.A: failed in the endB: proved quite successfulC: won wide supportD: influenced English greatly.【答案】DCBDA【解答】(1)D 细节理解题。

首先请阅读下面给予英语学习者的建议:English learning isn’t an easy thing, but most people can learn it well if they’re willing to put in the necessary time. Here are some practical suggest ions for learning English effectively, overcoming anxiety, and learning the grammar and skills necessary for success in English classes.A.Develop a good attitude.Have a clear personal reason for taking an English class. Set personal goals for what you want to learn. Leave perfectionism at the door;give yourself permission to make mistakes and learn from them.B.Divide your study time.Study a different task each time:vocabulary now, grammar next, etc. Get an overview during the first half hour:spend 10 minutes reviewing dialog,10 minutes learning new vocabulary,10 minutes learning new grammar...So you’ll at least have looked at it all. About 80% of your study time should be spent on recitation or practice.C.Make yourself comfortable.Get to know your clas smates, so you’ll feel you’re among friends. Visit your teacher during office hours. Explain your goals and fears about the course to your friends or your teacher.D.Attend and participate in every class—even if you aren’t well prepared.Class time is your best opportunity to practice. Learn the grammar and vocabulary outside of class in order to make full use of the class time. Spend a few minutes “warming up” before each class by speaking or reading English.E.Study every day.English learning is cumulative:you cannot put it off until tomorrow. Study one or two hours for every class hour if you want a good mark.F.Learn grammar well.Grammar is the skeleton and the basic structure of a language, so you must learn it.阅读以下各人学习英语的经历,然后匹配他们给予英语学习者的建议。
2023-2024学年广东广州人教版高考专题英语高考模拟1.阅读理解第1题.Most of us get our earliest life lessons from fairy tales, like "True love can overcome anything", and "Even a frog can turn into a prince". However, at a certain age, we start to learn new things about life, particularly that love doesn't always win, and that a frog is just a frog. But somehow, our love for fairy tales never dies. Just look at animated films like The Lion King and Frozen, which have millions of fans, young and old."Fairy tales stay here because they are the stories of our lives in the simplest form," wrote US author Laura Packer on the National Storytelling Network website. "They are stories of love and loss, desire and death, riches and ruin." Fairy tales are all about reality. But if children only see just one side of reality, adults usually see the other.For example, in the 2014 film Maleficent, we're told the tale of Sleeping Beauty from the perspective(视角)of the evil queen. Unlike the children's version of the story, we see that the queen wasn't born evil. Instead, she suffers great losses growing up, leading to the creation of her "evil" side.It looks as if fairy tales aren't just stories our parents read us at bedtime. They may usually start with "Once upon a time...", but as we grow older, we learn that every story doesn't always need a "Happily ever after" to be a good one.(1)Why do young children like fairy tales?A: Because it is their parents that tell them.B: Because tales involve love and wonder.C: Because children are affected by them.D: Because tales will become life lessons.(2)What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A: Fairy tales just tell us the wonderful side of the reality.B: The tales about love and loss can attract more children.C: Fairy tales exist forever because of their simplest style.D: Different from kidsadults read tales from other angles.(3)What's the purpose of the example in Paragraph 3 mentioned by the author?A: To remind that parents should tell the fairy tales from the perspective of children.B: To support the idea that adults are likely to associate the fairy tales with the reality.C: To tell us the danger of the fairy tales if they are told from the perspective of adults.D: To correct the impression that the queen is evil.(4)What's the author's attitude toward such fairy tales?A: Objective.B: Critical.C: Disagreeable.D: Indifferent.【答案】BDBA【解答】(1)B 推理判断题。
省市高考英语信息匹配、阅读理解训练题〔5〕及答案任务型读写(共10小题;每题1分,总分值10分)The teacher-student relationship is very important for children.Children spend approximately 5 to 7 hours a day with a teacher for almost 10 months.We ask ourselves what is considered a good teacher? All of us have gone through schooling,and,if fortunate,we had a favorite teacher.A positive relationship between the student and the teacher is difficult to establish,but it can be found for both individuals at either end.The qualities for a positive relationship can vary from setting a learning experience approachable to inviting the students to learn.A teacher and student who have the qualities of good communications,respect in a classroom,and show interest in teaching from the point of view of the teacher and learning from a student will establish a positive relationship in the classroom.Children have different strategies for learning and achieving their goals.A few students in a classroom will grasp and learn quickly,but at the same time there will be those who have to be repeatedly taught using different techniques for the student to be able to understand the lesson.On the other hand,there are those students who fool around and use school as entertainment.Teaching then becomes difficult,especially if,teachers,creating a positive relationship with their students,will not necessarily control of all the students.The key is that teachers need to monitor their students in order to be aware of any difficulties they are having.Understanding their problem,fear,or confusion will give the teacher a better understanding their learning difficulties.Once the teacher becomes aware of the problems,he or she will have more patience with the students,thus making them feel secure or less confused when learning is taking place in the classroom.The communication between the student and the teacher serves as a connection between the two,which provides a better atmosphere for a classroom environment.Of course a teacher is not going to understand every problem for every child in his or her classroom,but will acquire enough information for those students who are strugglingwith specific tasks.A significant body of research indicates that academic achievement and student behavior are influenced by the quality of the teacher and astudent relationship.The more the teacher connects or communicates with his or her students,the more likely they will be able to help students learn at a high level and accomplish quickly.The teacher needs to understand that in many schools,for example,in big cities like Los Angeles,children come from different cultures.A teacher then needs to understand the value of the students’ senses of belonging,which can be of greater value and build self worth for minority students.If the teacher expresses an understanding of the student’s culture,it will provide a better understanding between the teacher and the student.Though there are students who have a difficult time in school but shouting should not be the solution for children who find education a difficult process or simply lack of learning experiences,but sometimes teachers mistakingly believe shouting at the child to be the only quick solution.Therefore,those teachers who show respect towards their students,automatically win favor by having active learners in their classroom.Unqualified teachers will lack these positive qualities due to his or her lack of control over the children.Teachers should show to their students that they should also be treated with respect and their responsibilities to ensure that students treat each other with kindness.3 6.答案:qualities [归纳概括题,下表说明了好的关系应具有的品质。

I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head.Now I am thirty two.I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is.It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity(灾难)can do strange things to people.It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind.I believe in life now.I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise.I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes.I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself.That was basic.If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life.When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone.That is part of it.But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate(错综复杂的)pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance.It had to start with the simplest things.Once a man gave me an indoor baseball.I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt."I can't use this." I said."Take it with you," he urged me, "and roll it around." The words stuck in my head."Roll it around! "By rolling the ball I could hear where it went.This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball.At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball.We called it ground ball.All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time.I had to learn my limitations.It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure.I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.1.We can learn from the beginning of the passage that _______A.the author lost his sight because of a car crash.B.the author wouldn't love life if the disaster didn't happen.C.the disaster made the author appreciate what he had.D.the disaster strengthened the author's desire to see.2.What's the most difficult thing for the author?A.How to adjust himself to reality.B.Building up assurance that he can find his place in life.C.Learning to manage his life alone.D.How to invent a successful variation of baseball.3.According to the context, “a chair rocker on the front porch” in paragraph 3means that theauthor __________A.would sit in a rocking chair and enjoy his life.B.would be unable to move and stay in a rocking chair.C.would lose his will to struggle against difficulties.D.would sit in a chair and stay at home.4.According to the passage, the baseball and encouragement offered by the man _____A.hurt the author's feeling.B.gave the author a deep impression.C.directly led to the invention of ground ball.D.inspired the author.5.What is the best title for the passage?A.A Miserable LifeB.Struggle Against DifficultiesC.A Disaster Makes a Strong PersonD.An Unforgettable Experience【参考答案】1---5、CBCDC阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

It was started by university friends with little more than a cat, a dog, and an idea brought by a bottle of wine. Today, Atlantis takes up the basement of a big house, offering everything from bestsellers to books on Greek history and culture.Barter Books, Northumberland, Northeast EnglandThe store is in Ainwick, a Victorian railway station that dates back to 1887, and a model railway sits overhead. Pull up a chair to the working fireplace to eat a cookie and have a cup of coffee, or search the shelves for a wide variety of titles.Shakespeare and Company, Paris, FranceFrom its home by the Seine River, Shakespeare and Company often has a line of customers and tourists waiting to get in, eager to search its collection of rare books, new reads and self-published titles.

A MythIt is true that world population is growing, but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems. Believing this will cause us to ignore the real problem and risk long-term damage to our planet.Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a myth. For one thing, the UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth but provides a low variant (变量), medium variant, and high variant to factor in various possibilities. In the 2010 revision, their high variant suggests that the world population will be almost 16 billion in 2100, but the low variant predicts it will peak at 8 billion and decrease to just over 6 billion by 2100. In most cases, it is the low variant that has come true in the past, suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions. In addition to this, the size of families is actually decreasing.For another, if the Earth is overpopulated, there needs to be insufficient (短缺) food, water, and space for humans to live. However, Indian economist Raj Krishna estimates that India alone is able to increase crop produce to the point of providing the entire world’s food supply. The World Food Programme confirms that there is sufficient food grown to feed the world and there is the same amount of fresh water on the planet now as there was 10,000 years ago. So how is it possible that the number of people in the world is affecting our planet?Therefore, it is not an increase in population but an increase in consumption that is a severe threat. Materialism and overconsumption are facts of life for everybody in the western world, as possessions reflect a person’s status in society and people strive to obtain happiness throug h owning the latest fashionable goods. Not only that, but waste is a common occurrence which has a huge effect on our resources. It is a sad truth that 80% of the world’s resources are currently used by just 20% of the world’s population.Our overconsumption must be addressed now to make our lives more sustainable (可持续的) and avoid continuing the terrible damage to the environment we are causing. The key is education. If we do not work towards this but instead focus on the wrong issue, we may find ourselves living on a planet that can no longer sustain human life.1.

It is over 40 years since first atomic bomb was dropped on a major city in Japan. Yet even now its effects are showing themselves and may continue to do so for years to come. Much effort and human energy have been used to try to prevent such a terrifying thing from happening again. So far there is no guarantee that it will not. Countries which already possess nuclear knowledge and resources have bombs stored away which are powerful enough to wipe out all life on earth. But this is not all. Other countries, which previously were not so advanced in technology, are gradually buying materials that can be used for making atomic devices. This nuclear energy will naturally be of great value in helping the economy of poorer nations.The generation of electricity through nuclear power came directly from the original work on the atom bomb. Because of the increase in demand for energy and the possibility of decreasing supplies of oil and natural gas, the interest in electricity has increased. One of the by-products of nuclear power stations is plutonium (钸) produced from unclear fuel: plutonium is ingredient (成分) in bomb-making. It means that there are far more opportunities for the manufacture of bombs. This brings the problem to a full circle again. How can something so valuable and useful be controlled so that it works for the benefit and not the destruction of man? (from )1. The effects of dropping the first atomic bomb ________.A. are not overB. may go on foreverC. could last much longerD. will not be over in the near future2. The writer says that enough atomic bombs have already been manufactured to ________.A. wipe out JapanB. last foreverC. act as a peace-keeping deviceD. destroy all living things3. The advantage of less developed countries being able to make atomic devices is that it ______.A. gives them more opportunities for workB. will help poor countries to become richerC. will enable them to make better explosivesD. will be of great value to them4. The second paragraph tells us that the increased demand for electricity today ________.A. has led to the decrease in supplies of oilB. means that more countries are interested in nuclear powerC. has increased the risk of accidental explosionsD. has increased the very means of producing more atomic bombs【答案与解析】1.
