【解析】 本文是一篇科普說明文,主要介紹了垃圾作為環(huán)境問題的的造成的一些情況,同時(shí)介紹了中國在這方面的一些做法。

1D

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第一段第一句“Garbage or trash is a major kind of environmental pollution.”可知垃圾不是最嚴(yán)重的污染,故A是錯(cuò)誤的。“Each person produces about 2kg of trash a day.”可知每人每天約制造2kg,一周是14kg,故B是錯(cuò)誤的!We are making waste products faster than nature can break them down” 我們制作廢品比自然界分解更快。可知C是錯(cuò)誤的!.And we are using up resources(資源)faster than they can be replaced(取代).”可知D是正確的。

2 C

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第三段的內(nèi)容可知,四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中來自工廠的垃圾可能是最多的。故選以。

3D

猜測詞義題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“In the coming years China will build waste-to-energy plants in cities to clean up the garbage.”在未來幾年,中國將建立的垃圾轉(zhuǎn)化為能源工廠來清理垃圾,此可知選D。

4B

主旨大意題。本文主要講述了垃圾污染環(huán)境的問題,從最后一句“.But there’s a lot more that needs to be done.And you can play a part.”來判斷,帶有一定的號召性,故B是最佳選項(xiàng)。

5B

推理判斷題。在文章中大量地使用第一人稱,綜觀整個(gè)文章來看,最有可能是B。故選B。

【題目】Our room was on the second floor but you could still hear the roar of the ocean and see the stars at night. I used to take long walks along the water. The food in town was wonderful and the people were very friendly. The area was very quiet and peaceful, and fairly deserted.

The last evening of our vacation, however, we all heard strange footsteps following closely behind us as we were walking up to our room in the holiday centre. We turned around and noticed a fairly young man moving very rapidly across the beach and getting closer to us. He was tall and wore a baseball cap. We couldn’t see his face and he was approaching us very rapidly. The man’s actions made my dad very nervous. Dad warned us that we’d better try to make it to our hotel room as quickly as possible. I didn’t like my dad’s voice; I could hear fear in it. It was late and we were all alone. We didn’t have any cell phones on us. I never saw Dad as worried as he was then and I knew that something was terribly wrong. The sense of fear started to overwhelm Mom and me. We had had such a good time in town. Now, the night was rapidly turning into a dangerous situation.

We could hear the man’s footsteps getting closer. Dad’s face was almost pale. The so-called intruder (侵入者) had moved nearer and nearer when all of a sudden, the nearby vending(自動販賣) machine started going crazy and spitting out cans of soda! The noise actually scared the intruder and he ran out of sight. My parents were shaking, but we all turned around to see who had put money into the vending machine downstairs, and actually saved us, but no one was around at all. Not a soul.

It’s one vacation I will never forget.

A. Near a lake.B. At the seaside.

C. In a village.D. In a mountain.

4What helped them get out of the trouble?

A. Their quick action.

B. Other people’s kind help.

C. The young man’s warning.

D. The noise from the vending machine.

【題目】Over the centuries, through genetic and cultural adaptation, humans and a wild bird species have learned to work together .When human honey-hunters make a certain noise, a bird called the honey guide does its job with unbelievable accuracy, leading people to hidden bees' nests.

Scientists put this ancient practice to the test. When biologists compared the honey guide call to other sounds, the traditional sound sent the honey guides to hidden bees nest three times more often than other sounds, according to a study in the journal Science. When you make the right noise, you end up with more honey compared to the wrong noise.

"It's an exchange of information for skills," said study lead author Claire Spottiswoode, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Cambridge.She failed to find bees nests until her friends made the right noise,and then was rewarded with honey that's very rich and delicious.

The honey guide has a special ability to find bees' nests. “Scientists aren't quite sure how it works, but it likely has to do with a sophisticated sense of smell,” Spottiswoode said. Still, there's a problem: These nests are stuck in trees that are difficult for the birds to reach. Even worse, the bees sting the birds, sometime to death.The people of the region, who make a living on the honey, have tools that can get at those nests and they use smoke to chase the bees away, reducing the stinging problem.

It's clear that the birds have adapted in an evolutionary way through natural selection, but for people the arrangement is probably more cultural.

1According to the study, when making the wrong noise, people probably will .

A. get more honey

B. find bees’ nests easily

C. have difficulty finding bees’ nests

D. earn more time

2What does the underlined word “sophisticated”in the fourth paragraph probably mean?

A. elementary B. Advanced.

C. Plain. D. Poor

3What can be learned from the text? ?

A. Scientists have found out how the honey guide works.

B. Honey guides can easily get bees' nests in trees.

C. Honey-hunters are not afraid of stinging problem.

D. The bees are afraid of smoke.

4What can be the best title for the text?

A. The terrible relationship between humans and wild birds.

B. People in the mountains make a living on the honey.

C. The honey guide can help humans find bees’ nests

D. Human honey-hunters’ wonderful life.

【題目】Mike the Headless Chicken Festival

In 1945, farmer Lloyd Olsen attempted to cut off the head of Mike, a chicken, so his wife could cook it up for dinner. However, the bird didn’t die and lived another year and a half, making regular trips to the fair, where people paid a quarter to see the amazing headless bird.

Today, the spirit of Mike the Headless Chicken is celebrated with a two-day May festival in Fruita, Colorado, which includes live music, a golf tournament and lots of delicious chicken.

Roswell UFO Festival

In the summer of 1947, a flying saucer (碟狀物) crashed on a large farm outside the town of Roswell, New Mexico. The government says it didn’t come from outer space, while many top UFO researchers believe it did.

Knowing a good thing when it crashes in their backyard, the citizens of Roswell celebrate the event every July with a three-day festival that features a costume contest, a parade and other activities. Be careful, though that strange little person next to you could be from another planet!

World’s Largest Rattlesnake Roundup

The rattlesnake, a poisonous American snake, serves an important function in nature by keeping small pests under control, but when their numbers grow too large, they can cause serious problems for farmers. That’s why every March the residents of Sweetwater, Texas, host a three-day festival in association with the town’s annual rattlesnake hunt.

Visitors can learn about rattlesnakes, take a bus tour of their natural habitat, participate in a rattlesnake eating contest and so on.

Bug Fest

Every September, the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh sponsors a daylong festival that focuses on something most people try to avoid: insects.

Visitors can hold bugs that are not native, cheer on racing insects and learn about beekeeping. But the highlight for many is Café Insecta, where bugs are the main ingredient in a variety of tasty dishes.

【題目】閱讀填空

I used to be the messiest person alive. Over the years, through watching others and by trial and error, I have finally found ways to come up with plans, organize them and follow through with them.

Make an outline of everything you need to have and do to make your plan happen. Make a list of all of the steps that need to be accomplished and think about what needs to be done.

Detail everything thoroughly and read over it so you can start coming up with some mental solutions of how to carry out your plans.

You should ensure that if for some reason way one doesn't work, you have way two and way three to lean back on. Therefore, different ways are needed at hand. It's just a matter of being organized. Chances are that there is always more than one way of doing things, and chances are that if one of those waysdoesn't work,one of the others will.

Committing yourself to finishing at least part ifnot all of your plan at once is also necessary. It willshow that you not only have initiative to get thingsrolling, but that you are interested in the resultsobtained with making the move to get everythingdone.

If you make a commitment to finish before aspecific time, make sure that you carry that out, andbe sure to do everything in the way you said youwould, within the time-frame you set for yourself.

Don't try to tackle (處理) more things all at atime. All that does is delay your progress, distract youand make you lose your interest, motivation andenergy.

Carrying out an effective plan requires being as organized as possible. You will only achieve this bysticking to the order of the plan and not deviating ortrying to do more at a time.

Last but not the least, you should never abandon things mid-project. It will only annoy everyonearound you including yourself. Unfinished plans are awaste of time, energy and, in some cases,evenmoney.

So,don't be afraid of organization. The older weget,the more necessary it becomes to have the skills to follow through with confidence and to be able tocarry through plans in an organized and manageable way. It pays to be organized, after all.

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly 【1】 (benefit) to your physical and mental health. So far, research 2 (show) that people who forgive can have more energy, better appetite and better sleep. “People who forgive show 3 (little) anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people 4 (feel) more energetic.”

So when someone has hurt you, cool down first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something __5 gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Don’t wait for an 6 (apologize). “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,” says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things in 7 same way. So if you wait for people to say sorry, you could be waiting a very long time.”

Next keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean 8 (accept) the action of the person who upsets you. 9, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective. You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to 【10 (you) from that person’s point of view.
