【題目】Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.

Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses（球場）in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.

There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements（代替物）for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.

【1】Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of ?

A. Working out in a gym. B. Cycling in a mountain.

C. Swimming in a sports centre D. Playing golf in the countryside.

【2】The author uses power walking as an example mainly because .

A. it is free B. it benefits our health

C. it gets people close to the nature D. it is resource-saving

【3】The author writes the passage to _______.

A. show us the harm sports do to people

B. encourage us to go in for green sports

C. suggest taking up more sports to keep fit

D. promote some environment-friendly sports

【答案】

【1】 B

【2】 D

【3】 B

【解析】

本文是一篇議論文。作者通過對比一些對資源耗費較多的運動如高爾夫，和一些不怎么耗費資源的運動如power walk，旨在提倡綠色運動。

【1】推理判斷題。由文章第一段最后一句和第三段“Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.” 可知，無論選擇哪種運動，你選擇的運動可能對環(huán)境有很大的影響，不過你都可以通過使用環(huán)保的設備和購買回收材料制成的產(chǎn)品來讓它更環(huán)保。故選項B符合作者意圖。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文中第三段“There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse.”可知，作者用power walk作為例子主要是因為這是一項資源耗費很少的運動。選D。

【3】主旨意圖題。作者指出無論選擇哪種運動，你選擇的運動可能對環(huán)境有很大的影響，不過你都可以通過使用環(huán)保的設備和購買回收材料制成的產(chǎn)品來讓它更環(huán)保。通過對比一些對資源耗費較多的運動如高爾夫，和一些不怎么耗費資源的運動如power walk，旨在提倡綠色運動。故選B。

小題3考查主旨大意。主旨題是常考試題，把握文章邏輯結構對于做主旨題很有幫助，縱觀全文，可知本文為總分總的結構，作者在第一段中提出話題，運動可以幫助你保持健康和接觸大自然，而你選擇的運動可能對環(huán)境有很大的影響，在第二、三段，作者對比了一些對資源耗費較多的運動如高爾夫，和一些不怎么耗費資源的運動如power walk。最后一段點明主旨我們要提倡綠色運動。

【題目】A hybrid electric vehicle (混合動力車) or HEV is a vehicle driven by the combination of petrol engine and electric motor. Terrence has been driving a HEV for five years. He really doesn’t understand why more people aren’t accepting them. “I probably spend about $ 7 a day on petrol,” the taxi driver told news. com. au. In his previous conventional vehicle Terrence said he was spending up to $ 30 a day on petrol, meaning he saves almost $ 6000 every year.

The Toyota spokesman said this was quite a high saving and official tests estimate (估計) an average driver would only save about 33 percent off their current bill. This means a driver paying $ 30 a day on petrol would see their bill drop to about $ 20 using the hybrid. “A taxi driver that drives in built-up areas and spends little time on highways will notice a higher fuel saving,” he said. “Low speeds allow the electric motors to be used more and the petrol engine used less.”

While some people are skeptical about how reliable hybrids are, Terrence said he had never run out of power. His Camry cost about $ 34,000 and so after five years, it’s nearly paid for itself. “For cab drivers, it’s a real advantage because of the cost-effectiveness,” he said. Terrence has no complaints about the car. “I love it, the calm and quietness of it, the simplicity of it—you just jump in and go. The maintenance（保養(yǎng)）is really low. But the only difficulty is finding someone to service the car as there are not many experienced mechanics（機修工）.”

Terrence said it’s “extraordinary” that more drivers aren’t buying more hybrid electric vehicles and that governments are not encouraging this more. “I think people have a view that you have to plug it in, which is not true. A lack of information about the cars may be stopping people from taking the plunge. It’s not promoted at all for the public to understand—it’s simplifying the actual owning of a car—you don’t have to do so many things to own it and run it, it’s just so much simpler. Why wouldn’t the government promote such a thing?”

【1】How much does an average driver save each day by driving a hybrid, according to the Toyota spokesman?

A. $ 30 B. $ 20

C. $ 10 D. $ 7

【2】Terrence’s problem with his HEV at the moment is about the ________.

A. speed B. power

C. price D. service

【3】When saying “extraordinary”, Terrence thinks it is ________.

A. understandable B. wonderful

C. doubtful D. unbelievable

【4】What does Terrence think prevent the popularity of hybrid cars?

A. The difficulty in servicing the car.

B. The restriction of the government.

C. The lack of information about HEV.

D. The inconvenience with charging the car.

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內容寫一篇60詞左右的內容概要。

Every summer, hundreds of thousands of students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the opportunities are in seasonal work, mainly connected with tourism and agriculture. The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the thrill of travel. You can pick grapes in France, work on a family campsite, entertain kids on American summer camps, and of course, there are always jobs in hotels and restaurants.

But it is not as easy as it used to be to find work. “Unless you speak the language of the country will, there will be very few openings.” Says Anthea Ellis, an adviser on vacation work for students. “If you work as a nanny with a family in Italy, then of course you’ll have to speak Italian. When you arrive to wash dishes in a restaurant in Paris, the owner will expect you to speak French.”

Not everyone enjoys the experience. Sarah James was an assistant responsible for a summer camp group of forty America children in Europe. One child lost his passport; another became seriously ill and was flown home; four children were lost in Madrid for a whole day; the whole group was thrown out of one hotel because of the noise they made. “I did visit a lot of new places,” she says, “but it wasn’t worth it. The pay was awful and really was a 24-hour-a-day job. The kids never slept!”

“The trouble is, students expect to have an easy time of it,” Anthea Ellis points out. “After all, they see it as a holiday. In practice, though, you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual work. You’ll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy and you have few employment rights. As soon as the holiday season finished, they’ll get rid of you. If you don’t work hard, or if your employer doesn’t like you, you’ll get fired.”

【題目】Are supermarkets designed to persuade us to buy more? When you enter a supermarket, the manager knows better than you: how you will behave — which way you will walk, where you will look, what will make you buy one product rather than another. When customers go into a shop, they naturally look to their left but move clockwise, towards the right. So supermarket entrances are usually on the left of the building. And the layout is designed to take shoppers around the store, aisle (通道) after aisle, from left to right. 【1】

Fresh fruit and vegetables are displayed near supermarket entrances. 【2】 Basic food like sugar and tea, are not put near each other. They are kept in different aisles so customers are taken past other attractive foods before they find what they want. In this way, shoppers are encouraged to buy products that they do not really want.

People walk quickly through narrow aisles, but they move slowly in wide aisles and give more attention to the products. One best-selling position for products is at the end of aisles, because shoppers slow down to turn into the next aisle. 【3】 Supermarkets are paid by food companies to put their products in each of these high-selling places.

【4】 While parents are waiting to pay, children reach for the sweets and put them in the trolley.

More is bought from a fifteen-foot display of one type of product (e.g. cereal, washing powder) than from a ten-foot one. 【5】 They do not like to buy from shelves with few products on them because they feel there is something wrong with those products that are there.

A. Another is on shelves at eye level.

B. Sweets are often placed at children’s eye level at the checkout.

C. There are always enough products prepared for customers in the supermarket.

D. Then shoppers will pay attention to all the products.

E. This gives the impression that only healthy food is sold in the shop.

F. Customers also buy more when shelves are full than when they are half empty.

G. Supermarkets are one of children’s favorite places and they are also big consumers.
