試題分析:本文從經(jīng)濟、領(lǐng)域、政治等各方面全面地向我們介紹了加拿大這個國家。

【1】in;句意:加拿大是美國北部的一個國家,由十個省和三個領(lǐng)土組成。in(表示位置)在…里面,(表示領(lǐng)域,范圍)在…以內(nèi),故填in。

【2】Located;句意:位于大陸的北部。這里括號中的詞是locate,因為這里是加拿大和大陸之間是被動關(guān)系,表示“坐落于”,所以應(yīng)該用過去分詞,故填Located。

【8】a;句意:加拿大是英聯(lián)邦的一員。這里要求填“一員”所以需要冠詞a來修飾,故填a。

【9】and;考查狀語從句。句意:而且是幾個主要的國際和政府間機構(gòu)或集團的一部分。這里前后兩個句子是并列關(guān)系,故填and。

【10】including;句意:包括北約、八國集團、十國集團、20國集團、北美自由貿(mào)易協(xié)定和亞太經(jīng)濟合作論壇。這里include要做主語,所以應(yīng)該用動名詞形式,故填including。

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收銀臺)in her general store. __【1】_____ I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”

At first I was paid in candy. _2 I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. 3

By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妝品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妝)ideas. 4

The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener.5 Except they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.

A. Later I received 50 cents an hour.

B. Before long, she let me sit there by myself.

C. I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.

D. Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

【題目】It is important for countries to develop. Sometimes development can do more harm than good for a country. Therefore, this development needs to be different from past development, which polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. One possible solution to this problem now being discussed is sustainable development. It focuses on preserving the environment and natural resources. It is all about creating better health care, education, housing and improved standard of living for everyone. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do, because without sustainable development our future and the lives of our children and our grandchildren will be in danger.

Nearly everything we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earth’s natural resources. These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. The list is almost endless. For all these things, we mostly depend on fuels such as coal, gas and oil to produce energy. We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide, which is harmful to the environment. This is why many people are pushing for the use of alternative energy sources.

Alternative energy sources can be used without running out. Some examples of the alternatives are solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity. As people are becoming more aware of the need to protect the environment, these types of energy are becoming more and more popular.

In many parts of the world, tentative(試驗性的) steps are being taken to introduce these forms of alternative energy. For example, some people in Nigeria are training to use solar power, and in Costa Rica, people are now using hydroelectricity to provide power for their small villages. The introduction of programmes like these will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see alternative energy promoted around the world. This will mean good things for our future, our children’s future and our grandchildren’s future.

【1】We know from the passage that sustainable development _________.

A. means to develop slowly

B. can bring little good to the people

C. has ended the environmental destruction

D. is an idea being discussed

【2】It is important to preserve the natural resources because they _________.

A. consume the energy for important things

B. are running out

C. provide the energy for people to use

D. are being produced at a high rate

【3】 Hydroelectricity means ___________.

A. using the sun to provide electricity

B. using wind power to produce electricity

C. using water power to produce electricity

D. using water to protect the environment

【4】 What is the author’s attitude toward sustainable development?

A. Critical. B. Positive.

C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful.

【題目】Expensive and new gloves allow chatterboxes (話匣子) to take the term "handsfree" to a new levelby talking into them as they make a call. The gloves are known as "Talk to the Hand" and cost 1,000 a pair. They fixed a speaker unit into the thumb and a microphone into the little finger that can be connected to any mobile handset using Bluetooth.

Artist Sean Miles designed the new gloves that double as a phone in part of his project that shows the possibilities of gadget (小玩意) recycling. He uses outdated gloves and combines them with parts from mobile handsets recycled through O2, which took up the project. Mobile phone users will be able to keep their hands warm while they chat without taking their phones out of their pockets or handbags.

Mr. Miles designed two pairs of the new gloves one in pink and the other in brown and yellow. They will appear in an exhibition this July and visitors will be able to win the gloves. If demand is high, they will then be produced on a larger scale. O2 Recycle, which backed the project, estimates that there are already 70 million unused mobile handsets in the UK. The service pays up to 260 to those who recycle gadgets including phones, handheld consoles (操縱臺), MP3 players and digital cameras.

Designer Sean Miles hopes his work will get people thinking about recycling. The 41-year-old said, "I hope that my 'Talk to the Hand' project will get people to think again about the waste created by not recycling gadgets. If a few more people recycle their gadgets rather than send them to trash, I think this project will have fulfilled its aim."

Bill Eyres, head of O2 Recycle, urges people to recycle their phone responsibly. He said, "There’s a pressing need for all of us to look at outdated handsets, and all the gadgets that we move on from or upgrade each year. Whether they are consoles or cameras, we should think of them as a resource that we need to recycle responsibly rather than throw them away."

【1】The underlined word "O2" in Paragraph 2 is probably the name of ______.

A. an artist B. a mobile

C. a company D. an exhibition

2 Consumers can buy the "Talk to the Hand" gloves ______.

A. in the exhibition

B. from Mr. Miles

C. after they recycle the gadgets

D. when they are mass-produced

3The purpose of the project is to _______.

A. promote the technology of IT

B. enable people to talk to their hands

C. raise peoples awareness of recycling

D. attract visitors attention in the exhibition

4What is the passage mainly about?

A. New mobiles which are fashionable.

B. Outdated handsets which are upgraded.

C. Outdated gadgets which can be used for recycling.

D. New gloves which can be used for making phone calls.
