【題目】Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills(風(fēng)車) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the 7th century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.

For many centuries, people used windmills to grind(磨碎) wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote(偏遠(yuǎn)的) areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available(可利用的) to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were seldom used.

During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.

【1】From the text we know that windmills__________.

A. were invented by European armies

B. used to supply power to radio in remote areas

C. have a history of more than 2,800 years

D. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered

【2】What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century?

A. Producing electricity. B. Sailing a boat.

C. Grinding wheat into flour. D. Pumping water from ground.

【3】One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that______.

A. the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs

B. it is one of the oldest power sources

C. it was cheaper to create energy from wind

D. wind power is cleaner

【4】The passage is mainly about______________.

A. the global pollution from burning coal and gas

B. the worldwide movement to save energy

C. the history of using wind power

D. the advantages of windmills

【答案】

【1】B

【2】A

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】試題分析：本文介紹了風(fēng)能及風(fēng)能運(yùn)用的情況。在能源短缺的今天，作為最為潔凈、豐富的風(fēng)能，一定會(huì)對(duì)我們的生活作出極大的貢獻(xiàn)。

【1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段句子可知，十九世紀(jì)末有了電之后，偏僻地區(qū)的人們就利用風(fēng)車發(fā)電，于是人們就有了電燈和收音機(jī)，因此選擇B項(xiàng)。根據(jù)windmills began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC可知，A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)在more than；根據(jù)末段句子可知，盡管成本較高，人們依然使用風(fēng)能提供電力，因此D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段句子可知，人們最初利用風(fēng)車磨面或抽水，十九世紀(jì)末有了電之后，人們又用其發(fā)電，因此選擇A項(xiàng)。

【3】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段可知，二十世紀(jì)七十年代，人們注重環(huán)保，而且認(rèn)識(shí)到煤和氣的短缺；而風(fēng)能的特點(diǎn)是潔凈、豐富和歷史悠久，但是成本較高。綜合選擇D項(xiàng)最佳。

【4】C主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第一段第一句Think about the different ways that people use the wind. 本文介紹了風(fēng)能及風(fēng)能運(yùn)用的情況。故選C。

【學(xué)法指導(dǎo)】

通常細(xì)節(jié)題的正確選項(xiàng)有以下特征：1.對(duì)原文句子中的關(guān)鍵詞進(jìn)行替換。把原文中的一些詞換成意義相近的詞，成為正確選項(xiàng)。2.詞性或者語態(tài)的變化。把原文中的一些詞變換一下詞性，或者改變?cè)木渥拥恼Z態(tài)，給考生制造障礙。3.語言簡化。把原文中的復(fù)雜語言現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行簡化，成為正確答案。4.正話反說。把原文中的意思反過來表達(dá)而成為正確選項(xiàng)（適用于尋找錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)的題目）�！�1】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段句子可知，十九世紀(jì)末有了電之后，偏僻地區(qū)的人們就利用風(fēng)車發(fā)電，于是人們就有了電燈和收音機(jī)，因此選擇B項(xiàng)。根據(jù)windmills began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC可知，A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，C項(xiàng)錯(cuò)在more than；根據(jù)末段句子可知，盡管成本較高，人們依然使用風(fēng)能提供電力，因此D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。

【題目】Jamie Oliver, a lively Britain guy, loves to share his secrets. In his first television show, The Naked Chef, Oliver taught everyone to make simple but delicious food. In Jamie’s Kitchen, he taught young people how to prepare meals. His next show, Jamie’s School Dinners, is about changing the food that students eat.

Oliver saw that some schools in Britain were serving junk food—food that is easy to eat but unhealthy. Although it can be delicious, junk food is not very good for children. It is sometimes bad for their health, because it doesn’t give them the energy they need at school. They sometimes can’t think well or feel down, and they sometimes put on weight.

Some of the junk food that Oliver wants to change is canned spaghetti, chicken nuggets, French fries, soda, and muffins. He encourages schools to serve fresh and health meats, vegetables and fruits. He helps the school cooks to make healthy dinners without junk food.

People liked Oliver’s idea of bringing quality food to schools. Thousands enjoyed his television show. But Oliver wanted them to do more than just watch. At his Feed Me Better websites, he collected over 270,000 signatures (簽名) from people. Oliver sent these signatures to British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Then Blair promised to help change the school kitchens, teach school cooks to make healthy food, and spend more on school dinners. Thanks to Jamie Oliver, my children will be able to enjoy more healthy meals at school.

【題目】Having friends may well keep you healthier and help you deal with stress better. Some studies show that people with close friends have a greater ability to fight disease than people who are alone.

Place friendship in the first place. Find the time to be with friends even if it means letting the lawn go unmoved or the dishes unwashed for a while. When you can’t get together, use the phone to keep in touch.

Open up to close friends. Keeping a deep friendship requires a level of “heartfelt” intimacy (親密). Don’t be afraid to express your inner fears and disappointments. Listen to your friends when they have problems, but offer advice only when it’s wanted. Help raise friends’ self-esteem when they are sad about a job loss, or other such events.

Have different friends for different activities, such as going to the movies,singing in a choir, and joining in a bowling league.

Don’t wait for a friend to ask for helps. When a friend has the flu, offer to go to the store or drive his or her children to their after-school activities.

Never take a friendship for granted. Like a good marriage, friendship needs care and patience. Become a joiner. Find a group that matches your interests.

Talk to strangers. Conversations started in museums, laundry rooms, or bookstores can lead to firm friendship.

【題目】My parents were in a huge argument, and I was really upset about it. I didn't know who I should talk with about how I was feeling. So I asked Mom to allow me to stay the night at my best friend's house. Though I knew I wouldn't tell her about my parents’ situation, I was looking forward to getting out of the house. I was in the middle of packing up my things when suddenly the power went out in the neighborhood. Mom came to tell me that I should stay with my grandpa until the power came back on.

I was really disappointed because I felt that we did not have much to talk about. But I knew he would be frightened alone in the dark. I went to his room and told him that I'd stay with him until the power was restored. He was quite happy and said, “Great opportunity.”

“What is it?” I asked.

“To talk, you and I” he said. “To hold a private little meeting about what we’re going to do with your mom and dad, and what we're going to do with ourselves now that we're in the situation we are in.”

“But we can't do anything about it. Grandpa,” I said, surprised that here was someone with whom I could share my feelings and someone who was in the same “boat” as I was.

And that's how the most unbelievable friendship between my grandfather and me started. Sitting in the dark, we talked about our feelings and fears of life — from how fast things change to how they sometimes don't change fast enough. That night, because the power went out, I found a new friend, with whom I could safely talk about all my fears and pains, whatever they may be. Suddenly, the lights all came back on. “Well,” he said, “I guess that means you'll want to go now. I really like our talk. I hope the power will go out every few nights!”

【1】I wished to get out of the house because __________.

A. I was eager to have fun with my best friend

B. I found nobody to share my feelings with

C. I wanted to escape from the dark house

D. I planned to tell my friend about my trouble

【2】 Grandpa was happy to see me because __________.

A. he could discuss the problem with me

B. he had not seen me for a long lime

C. he was afraid of darkness

D. he felt quite lonely

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The grandchild was eager to leave.

B. They would have more chats.

C. The lights would go out again.

D. It would no longer be dark.
