Question

Trees are useful to man in three important ways: they give him wood and other useful things, they give him cool places, and they help to stop drought and flood.

Unluckily, in many parts of the world, man has not found that the third of these points is the most important. Man wants to make money from trees, so he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. And also, he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.

This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees. The results are even worse: for where there are trees, their roots break up soil-make the rain in-and also bind the soil, thus stopping it from being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.

試題分析：本文講述了人和森林的關(guān)系。森林對(duì)于人類(lèi)有很重要的意義，但最重要的是森林能夠阻止洪澇和干旱。人們?yōu)榱藪赍X(qián)，會(huì)砍伐樹(shù)木去賣(mài)錢(qián)。但是卻很不認(rèn)真的種新的樹(shù)木，所以樹(shù)木越來(lái)越少，干旱和洪澇頻發(fā)，最終會(huì)變成沙漠。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意；關(guān)于樹(shù)的觀點(diǎn)中最重要的哪個(gè)？根據(jù)：Trees are useful to man in three important ways... they help to stop drought and flood.man has not found that the third of these points is the most important.樹(shù)在三個(gè)方面對(duì)人類(lèi)有幫助，第三點(diǎn)是幫助阻止干旱和洪澇，人類(lèi)現(xiàn)在還額米有發(fā)現(xiàn)其實(shí)第三點(diǎn)是最重要的，故選 D。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意：在很多地方，樹(shù)木緩慢的消失是因?yàn)槭裁�。根�?jù)： so he has cut them down in large numbers。人類(lèi)砍了很多樹(shù)he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees. So the forests slowly disappear.但是總是太不認(rèn)真種，也不認(rèn)真照顧新的樹(shù)。所以森林慢慢減少。故選D 。????????????????

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意：在所有的樹(shù)被砍伐之后田地就變成了沙漠是因?yàn)槭裁�。根�?jù)：where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away, causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil. When all the top-soil is gone, nothing is left but useless desert.當(dāng)沒(méi)有樹(shù)的時(shí)候，下的雨就把土地沖走，引起洪澇，帶走肥沃的土壤。當(dāng)所有的頂部沃土都被沖走時(shí)，除了沙漠什么都沒(méi)有留下，故選D 。????????????????????????

4.標(biāo)題歸納題。句意：那個(gè)標(biāo)題最符合文章。根據(jù)整篇文章，都是講述人和樹(shù)木的關(guān)系，故選A 。??????????????????
