In an effort to discourage people from using plastics, scientists have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging products.

The idea of using seaweed(海草) to make eco-friendly water bottles has been around for a few years. Recently, Ari Jonsson took his invention—a water bottle made from red seaweed—to show off at a festival. The bottles will only hold their shape as long as they are filled. As soon as these bottles are empty they will begin to break down, though they would be perfectly safe to eat. Ari Jonsson's bottles are a step closer to a widely used alternative to the current plastic ones.

The eatable water container is not the only product to add to our image of the future. Narayana Pessapaty has also created eatable spoons. After the success of his spoons, Mr. Pessapaty is ready to expand and introduce forks and chopsticks to his menu. His aim is to largely reduce the amount of plastic waste, which is a huge problem for waste sites all over the world. It is a product that may take up to 500 years to break down, and recycling companies worldwide are struggling to deal with it.

Aside from the obvious benefits to the environment, this new packaging is also cheap to produce and therefore cheap to buy. Even better is the fact that similar eatable cutlery can be made at home, possibly a science project for children or just fun with friends. Why not experiment and create your own recipes?

1.Why do scientists invent alternative packaging products?

A. To make people's life more convenient.

B. To show off their inventive talents.

C. To change the way we picnic outside.

D. To reduce the amount of plastic waste.

2.What makes Art Jonsson's water bottles eco-friendly?

A. They can be made at home.

B. They are cheap to produce and buy.

C. They will hold their shape when they are filled.

D. They will break down themselves when empty.

3.What do Ari and Narayana's inventions have in common?

A. They are convenient to carry.

B. They are safe to eat.

C. They can be used for a short time.

D. They are heavier than plastics.

4.What can be inferred from this passage?

A. Home-made eatable cutlery is likely to be popular.

B. Eatable cutlery will completely replace plastics in the near future.

C. No recycling companies can break down plastic waste.

D. It's unsafe for individuals to invent eatable cutlery at home.

科目:高中英語 來源:安徽省六安市2017屆高三6月適應性考試英語試卷 題型:閱讀理解

Hummingbirds(蜂鳥) are one of nature’s most energetic fliers and the only birds to hover(盤旋) in the air by relying on their strength alone.

Now scientists have found that it is the ratio(比值) of the bird’s wing length to its width that makes them so efficient. The discovery is helping experts compete with 42 million years of natural selection to build helicopters that are increasingly efficient.

David Lentink, an assistant professor at Stanford University in California, tested wings from 12 different species of hummingbirds, which he sourced from museums. He placed them on a machine used to test the aerodynamics(氣力學) of the helicopter blades(槳葉). Professor Lentink’s team used the same machine to test the blades from an advanced micro-helicopter used by the UK’s army. They found that the micro-helicopter’s blades are as efficient at hovering as the average hummingbirds.

But while the micro-helicopter’s blades kept pace with the average hummingbird wings, they could not keep up with the most efficient hummingbird’s wing. The wings of Anna’s hummingbird were found to be about 27 percent more efficient than the man-made micro- helicopter’s blades.

While Professor Lentink wasn’t surprised at nature’s superiority, he said that helicopter blades have come a long way. “The technology is at the level of an average hummingbird,” he said. “A helicopter is really the most efficient hovering device that we can build. The best hummingbirds are still better, but I think it’s amazing that we’re getting closer. It’s not easy to match their performance, but if we build better wings with better shapes, we might match hummingbirds.”

Professor Lentink said that we don’t know how hummingbirds maintain their flight in a strong wind, how they navigate(確定方向) through branches, or how they change direction so quickly. He thinks that great steps could be made by studying wing aspect ratios-the ratio of wing length to wing width. Understanding these abilities and characteristics could be a benefit for robotics and will be the focus of future experiments.

1.What did the scientists find about hummingbirds?

A. Their wings are long and wide

B. They can hover in the air for a long time

C. The ratio of their wing length to wing width is very important

D. They are the most energetic flier in nature

2.Which is the right order of Professor Lentink’s research?

①Tested wings from different species of hummingbirds

②Got resources from museums

③Analyzed the results and drew a conclusion

④Tested the blades from a micro-helicopter

A. ①②③④ B. ②①③④

C. ②④①③ D. ②①④③

3.According to Professor Lentink, what will be the focus of future experiments?

A. To know how hummingbirds can fly in a strong wind

B. To know how hummingbirds change direction so quickly

C. To develop a new kind of helicopter

D. To study the secrets of hummingbirds

科目:高中英語 來源:2017年全國普通高等學校招生統(tǒng)一考試歷史(海南卷正式版) 題型:簡答題

根據(jù)材料并結(jié)合所學知識回答問題 。(15分)

材料一 在美國憲法的制定過程中,一些政治家認為,“人民”和“人民的代表”(國會)是不同的;“人民”高于“人民的代表”;“由人民制定、政府不能更改的”憲法高于“由政府制定、政府能夠更改的”普通法律;國會的立法如果違憲,“自然不能使之生效”。根據(jù)這些理論,最高法院有權(quán)審查國會立法和總統(tǒng)行政命令是否符合憲法。但是,1787年美國憲法沒有相關規(guī)定,即未建立起司法審查制度。在初期美國政府中,既無財權(quán)、軍權(quán)又無民意基礎的最高法院的地位明顯低于總統(tǒng)和國會。

——摘編自(美)漢密爾頓等《聯(lián)邦黨人文集》

材料二 1803年,最高法院對“馬伯里訴麥迪遜案”做出判決:法院不能行使憲法沒有授予的權(quán)力,國會通過的立法如果違背憲法則無效。該判例確立了最高法院有權(quán)審查國會立法或總統(tǒng)行政命令是否違憲的司法審查制度,從而使最高法院足以與國會或總統(tǒng)相制衡。

——摘編自(美)伯納德 施瓦茨《美國法律史》

(1)根據(jù)材料一并結(jié)合所學知識,概括美國創(chuàng)立司法審查制度的理論基礎。(7分)

(2)根據(jù)材料一、二并結(jié)合所學知識,說明“馬伯里訴麥迪遜案”對于美國民主制度的影響。(8分)
