This is a dangerous world we live in.The number of murders goes up every year, people are dying of cancer, more people contract HIV, more teens are using drugs, etc.You know this because you have heard all the statistics on the news and in the paper. But do you really have an accurate idea what they mean? The numbers are growing up, but how do they compare to the growth in population? Are more cases of these diseases being reported because of better testing techniques, or are the diseases more common? The fact is that without knowing the background statistics mean very little.

   This growing trend of reporting only part of the information is becoming dangerous.For example, several years ago a high school student reported the dangers of the chemical known as dihydrogen monoxide.This chemical, found in most cancerous tumors(腫瘤), is often found in the blood of people drunk on alcohol, and causes complete physical and mental dependence for those who take the chemical even once.After reading his report, more than 75% of his Advanced Placement Chemistry class voted to forbid this dangerous chemical! Every one of the above statements is true, yet this chemical is necessary to all life on earth.The students made the mistake because they voted knowing only a few statements and statistics, rather than the chemical’s full background.

   The point of this article is that one should be aware of what is and is not being said.When one finds a new fact or number, one should try to consider other important information before forming an opinion with only half-truths.Always remember that the author is trying to convince you of his or her own view, and will leave out information that is different to his view.For example, look again at the statistics that suggest skiing is safe.Only 32 people may die each year when skiing, while 897 die from lightning strikes, but which is really the most dangerous? If you think about it, you realize far fewer people go skiing each year than the number of people who are in danger of a lightning strike.When you think about it, skiing is more dangerous than you might at first think when looking at statistics.If we teenagers are to be left in this world, we had better be able to think critically, and form our own views, rather than be easily persuaded by another’s.To be warned is to be prepared.

In the first paragraph, what problem does the writer want to warn us?

       A.We are now living in a dangerous world.

       B.We get a lot of false statistics from the media.

       C.Statistics alone without full background doesn’t give us an accurate pictures of things.

       D.There are around us more and more murders, diseases, etc.

Why does the writer use the example in the second paragraph?

       A.To argue that high school students are easily persuaded.

       B.To show the danger of reporting only part of the information.

       C.To prove what is necessary to us might be dangerous.

       D.To warn us of the harmful substance around us.

Relative information is often left out because__________.

       A.Relative information is not that important.

       B.too much information will make readers feel confused.

       C.the author is trying to show what he or she says is true.

       D.readers are not able to analyze so much information at once.

What can we learn from the passage?

       A.We should learn to think critically and look at problems from all sides.

       B.Some measures must be taken to protect our dangerous world.

       C.The growing trend of reporting only half-truths is getting out of control.

D.Teenagers ought to improve their ability of telling right from wrong.

B
Dave needed to prepare for Saturday's fishing trip. He went into his hall closet, where he had more than 20 rods and reels. Nowadays he went fishing twice a year at Big Bear, a huge lake in southern California about 7,000 feet up in the mountains.
California tries to improve the fishing industry by sponsoring(發(fā)起)a Free Fishing Day twice a ear, once in June and once in September. That’s enough for Dave. He went mostly because it was a cocial event with a few friends, not so much to catch fish. Even driving up a twisty(彎彎曲曲的)two-lane road was worth the trip. Let alone the big, beautiful houses and trees that lined the shore of the lake.
Preparing was a project in itself. Dace had even created a computer file named Fishing Trip. It was a checklist of 45 things to take to Big Bear. He took two rods, because on Free Fishing Day you were allowed to fish with two rods instead of the usual one rod. He took a sweatshirt, jeans, two pairs of socks, a heavy hooded jacket, winter gloves, and a scarf. He also took flip-flops, shorts, a T-shirt, sunglasses, a big hat, and lightweight raincoat. If you go to Big Bear in June, you’d better be prepared for hot or cold, rain or shine.
He prepared a couple of magazines to read just in case the fish weren’t biting. He and his friends joked that the fish were always biting- in the spot you just left or the spot you were headed for.
After about an hour and a half; Dave had gathered all the items on his list into a neat pile next to his door. He went to bed knowing that tomorrow’s weather and fishing were unpredictable, but the good time with his friends was a given.
45.Dave went go Big Bear twice a year mainly to_________.
A.fish                      B.meet his friends
C.prepare for his fishing     D.develop a project
46.Why had Dave created a computer file named Fishing Trip?
A.Because he was afraid he would forget the things needed
B.Because he would have so much fish to catch.
C.Because the good time with his friends was uncertain.
D.Because he wanted to buy some magazines on fishing.
47.On Free Fishing Day, people going fishing could use_________.
A.one fishing rod     B.two fishing rods      C.three fishing rods     D.twenty fishing rods
48.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A.Saturday’s Fishing Trip        B.A Happy Fishing Day
C.An Unforgettable Fishing Day        D.Preparing For a Fishing Trip

科目:高中英語 來源:2010-2011學(xué)年山東省臨沂市高三上學(xué)期期中考試英語卷 題型:閱讀理解

A town in Oxfordshire has become the first in the UK to have biomethane(生物甲烷)gas from human waste piped to their homes for gas central heating and cooking.

Up to 200 families in Didcot now receive the gas via the national gas power system. Head of energy and technology at British Gas, Martin Orrill, said customers wouldn’t notice any difference as the gas is purified(提煉)to the highest standard and has no smell. The gas is produced at a sewage(污物)treatment works plant in Didcot.

The entire process takes only less than three weeks, with the sewage being collected and sent first to settlement tanks. The solid waste material is then fed into digesters, where anaerobic bacteria(厭氧菌)digest the sewage, with the aid of enzymes(酶)to speed up the process. The digestion process produces methane, which can be burned to drive machines to produce electricity, or can be purified and fed into the gas network and piped to homes and businesses. British Gas says supplying the gas rather than electricity is far more efficient since around two-thirds of the energy is lost in producing electricity.

Partners in the Didcot project, British Gas, Scotia Gas Networks, and Thames Water, all hope to expand the process to other towns, and other companies such as Ecotricity and United Utilities have also announced biomethane projects being planned. One of these projects, in Manchester, could be supplying 500 homes with biomethane by mid next year. Another British Gas project in Suffolk will provide gas from digestion of brewery wastes to around 235 families.

The Didcot project cost £2.5m and was influenced by promises of government aids aimed at encouraging companies to develop renewable technologies. An EU directive means the UK must ensure at least 15 percent of its energy is from renewable sources by 2020.

    The UK produces about 1.73 million tons of sewage annually. If all sewage treatment works in the UK were fitted with the technology, they could supply gas for up to 350,000 families.

1.Which of the following is true of the biomethane gas?

   A. It’s mainly made from rotting plants.

   B. It’s an environmentally friendly gas.

   C. Its production process is too long.

   D. It’s easily recognized by the customers.

2.What is the function of the enzymes?

   A. To digest the solid waste material.

   B. To help get rid of anaerobic bacteria.

   C. To help purify the biomethane.

   D. To speed up the digestion process.

3.According to British Gas, the biomethane gas had better be used _____.

   A. as the power for the vehicles                                   

   B. for the heating and cooking

   C. to produce the electricity                                          

   D. to drive a variety of machines

4.The last three paragraphs mainly show that _____.

   A. UK government supports the biome thane projects

   B. the biome thane projects are very costly

   C. the biome thane projects still face many barriers

   D. the biome thane projects are promising

5.What should the text belong to?

   A. Computer science.                  B. Engineering.         C. Energy.                  D. Business.
