【題目】3-2-1 GREEN!

You already know an environmentalist’s three R’s: reduce, reuse, recycle. 1 Here are three things you can do for the Earth Day.

Be a real cut-up

The next time you’re about to throw out the plastic rings that hold a six-pack of soda together, reach for a pair of scissors.

As a young turtle, Peanut got stuck in one of these rings. As she grew, the ring stayed put(原地不動), forcing her shell to grow around it. By the time someone found her and cut her free, her shell was permanently deformed(成畸形的). Thanks to her hard shell, Peanut is alive and well. She now lives at a nature center in Missouri. But most animals that get caught in six-pack rings die.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Easy! 2

Hunt for vampires(吸血鬼)

You know all those electronic inventions you’ve got at home? Even when you switch them off, they are really still on. 3 Anything with a glowing LED off/on light, a remote control, or a clock display is always on.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Just pull out the plugs(插頭) or tap the OFF switch till you really need the electronics.

Matt Damon really cares about clean water. So in February, he announced that he was going on strike against toilets. “ Until everybody has access to clean water and sanitation(衛(wèi)生設(shè)備),” he said. “ I will not go to the bathroom!” He was kidding but to make a serious point. Around the world, he said, “780 million people lack access to clean water; 2.5 billion people lack access to a toilet.”

WHAT YOU CAN DO

No need to go on a toilet strike. Just don’t waste water. 5Take shorter showers.

A.Use water wisely.

B.How to recognize vampire electronics?

C.Cut the rings apart before you trash them.

D.Use toilets less.

E.But how else can you help?

F.Don’t run the water while brushing your teeth.

G.Things that can help with good living conditions are important.

【答案】

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章作者說明了你可以為世界地球日做的三件事情。

1文章下文Here are three things you can do for the Earth Day.說你可以為世界地球日做三件事情,該空與下文相呼應(yīng),E選項“但是,你能幫些什么忙?”切題,故選E。

2上文But most animals that get caught in six-pack rings die.說但是,大多數(shù)被困在放六個罐子的環(huán)狀物中的動物都死了,該空與上文相呼應(yīng),C選項“在你丟棄它們之前,把環(huán)形物剪碎”切題,故選C。

3下文Anything with a glowing LED off/on light, a remote control, or a clock display is always on.說明了識別魔鬼電器的方法,該空與下文相呼應(yīng),B選項“如何識別魔鬼電器”切題,故選B。

4第四段介紹了如何用水的問題,所以這一段的標題應(yīng)該是“明智地用水”,故選A。

5上文Just don’t waste water.指出了不要浪費水,下文Take shorter showers.指出短時間的淋浴,該空承上啟下,F(xiàn)選項“刷牙的時候,不要一直開著水”切題,故選F。

七選五題型要求考生從整體上把握文章的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)和內(nèi)容上的聯(lián)系,理解句子之間、段落之間的關(guān)系,對諸如連貫性、一致性等語段特征有較強的意識和熟練的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本結(jié)構(gòu)或段落的語篇結(jié)構(gòu)對解題很有用。例如小題4是要求選擇本段的小標題,結(jié)合其它三個小標題可知,小標題都是短小精悍的句子,再結(jié)合其段落的內(nèi)容就不難選出正確的答案。

【題目】 “Cash is king” is an age-old saying. 1 When in Berlin, do not count on getting around easily with just a credit card. “Cash only” signs hang on front doors of shops and restaurants across the city.

2 After all, Germany is Europe’s leading economy and famous technological know-how. But, even while some of its neighbors in Europe and elsewhere are quickly swapping physical money for new pay technologies, many Germans prefer their euro bills. Cash is quick and easy to use, they argue. It provides a clear picture of personal spending, keeps transactions (交易) more private and is widely accepted in the country.

A study by the country’s central bank said Germans carried an average of 107 euros in their wallet. 3 Three-quarters of Americans in a U.S. bank survey said they carried less than $50, and one-quarter said they kept $10 or less in their wallet.

4 In 2008, for the first time, Germans used plastics for payments more than bills. According to a report, in Cologne, 48.6% of sales took place with a debit or a credit card, compared with 48.3% in cash.

Still, Germany has one of the highest rates of cash use in the European Union. The most important reasons for the close relationship of Germans to cash are their needs for protection of personal data, security and confidentiality (保密) of payments. 5 But the average German’s need for security will be sure to slow the process.

A. This may be surprising to some.

B. It’s far more than what Americans carry.

C. Change may happen in future generations.

D. Germany is not the only country that prefers cash.

E. For much of Germany, however, the phrase is still up to date.

F. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never heard of the saying.

G. That’s not to say that Germans rule out other modern payment methods.

【題目】 If you were on the street in Mexico today you might think you were in an operating room, surrounded by doctors. You could see many concerned people with masks (口罩) trying their best to stop the swine flu (豬流感). And the masks aren’t only being used in Mexico. A friend of mine traveling from New York City to Florida was given a mask and a pair of gloves just after he reached the airport. And another friend went to get a haircut only to be faced with a hairdresser wearing a mask!

But do the masks really work? Is covering your nose and mouth the key to stopping the swine flu? To find out the truth, ABC’s reporter Sharyn Alfonsi talked with germ (細菌) expert Dr. Elaine Larsen. It turns out that when you sneeze (打噴嚏) the air coming out of your mouth at a speed of one hundred miles per hour carries germs which can travel anywhere around you and make people around you infected (被感染).

However, whether you become infected actually depends on the weather. As Sharyn reported, when you sneeze, the germs leave your body in small drops of water coming out of your mouth. If the weather is wet, the wet air will make the small drops bigger and heavier and they drop down towards our feet. If this happens, we won’t become infected. But if the air is dry, those small drops can float higher up, making it possible for them to touch someone else’s nose, mouth or their mask.

Larsen says the masks can stop the germs well but after a few hours, they start to get wet, holding a lot of germs they come across and causing you to breathe them in. The masks do work, but the key to stopping the germs is changing your masks often.

1According to Para.1, in Mexico you can see that ____.

A.the patients are treated in the open air

B.some doctors work in the street

C.people speak little to each other in the street

D.many people wear masks in the street

2According to the passage a patient spreads germs mainly through ____.

A.breathingB.Speaking

C.touching othersD.sneezing

3We learn from the passage that on a wet day ____.

A.sick people will be infectedB.germs can spread very far

C.germs spread very quicklyD.few people will be infected

4If you keep wearing a mask for a long time, ____.

A.the mask will be old and worn outB.you’ll love the feeling of wearing it

C.germs will be kept away from youD.it will be easy for you to be infected

5What should we pay attention to when wearing masks?

A.Keeping the masks dry.B.Changing the masks often.

C.Choosing very thick masks.D.Wearing big masks.
