Ask someone what they have done to help the environment re cently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycli ng in the home is very important of course. However, being fo rced to recycle often means we already have more material th an we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in th e first place.The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 19 99 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the . In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environ ment. The , for example, is running out of areas for burying thi s unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off gr eenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of th em are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, en couraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example. But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. W e have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have l earned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide ran ge of consumer products, which often have far more packagin g than necessary.There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material w e are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our con sumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.1. What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to?A. Using too much packaging.B. Recycling too many wastes.C. Making more products than necessary.D. Having more material than is needed.2. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show .A. the tendency of cutting household wasteB. the increase of packaging recyclingC. the rapid growth of supermarketsD. the fact of packaging o veruse3. According to the text, recycling .A. helps control the greenhouse effectB. means burning packaging for energyC. is the solution to gas shortageD. leads to a waste of land4. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.D. Other products are better packaged than food.5. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.B. Needless material is mostly recycled.C. People like collecting recyclable wastes.D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.【参考答案】1-5 DDACA【2013界广东省汕头市质量监测试题】The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded in agreement when h e said, "High school English teachers are not doing their jobs. " He described the inadequacies of his students, all high scho ol graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions ho w this grade 9 level had been established.My topic is not standards nor its decline(降低). What the speaker was really saying is that eh is no long er young; he has been teaching for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult.My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation abou t the one immediately following it is inevitable. It is also huma n nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth centur y, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language d eficiencies(缺陷). But since then, English teachers have been under const ant attack.The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea. Astheir own command of the language improves, they notice tha t young people do not have this same ability. Unaware that th eir own ability has developed through the years, they assume the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect. To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults the languag e of the young always seems inadequate.Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English la nguage is not perceived as a generational phenomenon but r ather as something new and peculiar to today's young people, it naturally follows that today's English teachers cannot be do ing their jobs. Otherwise, young people would not have a poor command of English.41. The speaker the author mentioned in the passage believed that ________.A. the language of the younger generation is usually inferior t o that t of the older generationB. the students had a poor command of English because they didn't work hard enoughC. he was an excellent language teacher because he had bee n teaching English for sixteen yearsD. English teachers should be held responsible for the studen ts' poor command of English【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。

The multi-million pound new Library of Birmingham (LoB)will be the most visible sign of the way the city is accepting the digitalization(数字化)of everyday life.Set to open in 2013,the£188m LoB is already beginning to take shape next to the Birmingham Repertory Theatre,with which it will share some equipment.As digital media(媒介)is important to its_idea,the project is already providing chances for some of the many small new local companies working at the new technologies.Brian Gambles,the LoB project director,says it is about giving people the right tools for learning:“The aim is to mix the physical with the digital,providing 24-hour services which can be used through many different ways.It is important to enable us to reach more people,more effectively.” The digital library will,he says,be as important as the physical one,allowing the distant use of the services, making sure that it is never closed to the public.Even before the LoB is complete,the public has been able to go online to visit the Virtual(虚拟的)LoB,designed by Baden,the Birmingham virtual worlds specialists.Not only have the public been able to learn about the LoB,but the virtual one has also enabled those working on the LoB to understand the building and how it will work before it even opens.Two other small Birmingham-based digital companies are also working on the LoBprojects.Substrat,a digital design company,is developing what it calls an example of an “enlarged reality” project.It is about the use of an exciting smart phone,an important part of the LoB which is in the early stages of development.And The People's Archive is an online library of historical figures of the city being built up by a digital content company in Cahoots,in which users will be encouraged to add to and comment on the material.Gambles says:“Technology will enable us to make the library's content and services open to citizens as never before”【语篇解读】本文是一则新闻报道。

定额市鞍钢阳光实验学校北京市2016高考英语阅读类训练(5)阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
I needed to buy a digital camera, one that was simply good at taking good snaps(快照), maybe occasionally for magazines. Being the cautious type, I fancied a reliable brand. So I went on the net, spent 15 minutes reading product reviews on good websites, wrote down the names of three top recommendations and headed for my nearest big friendly camera store. There in the cupboard was one of the cameras on my list. And it was on special offer. Oh joy. I pointed at it and asked an assistant, “Can I have one of those?” He looked perturbed (不安). “Do you want to try it first?” he said. It didn’t quite sound like a question. “Do I need to? “ I replied. “There’s nothing wrong with it? “ This made him look a bit insulted and I started to feel bad. “No, no, But you should try it,” he said encouragingly. “Compare it with the others.”I looked across at the others: shelves of similar cameras placed along the wall, offering a wide range of slightly different prices and discounts, with each company selling a range of models based a round the same basic box. With so many models to choose from, it seemed that I would have to spend hours weighing X against Y, always trying to take Z and possibly R into account at the same time. But when I had finished, I would still have only the same two certainties that I had entered the store with: first, soon after I carried my new camera out of the shop, it would be worth half what I paid for it; and second, my wonderful camera would very quickly be replaced by a new model.But something in the human soul whispers that you can beat these traps by making the right choice, the clever choice, the wise choice. In the end, I agreed to try the model I had chosen. The assistant seemed a sincere man. So I let him take out my chosen camera from the cupboard, show how it took excellent pictures of my fellow shoppers. . . and when he started to introduce the special features, I interrupted to ask whether I needed to buy a carry-case and a memory card as well. Why do we think that new options (选择) still offer us anything new? Perhaps it is because they offer an opportunity to avoid facing the foot that our real choices in this culture are far more limited than we would like to imagine.1. The shop assistant insisted that the writer should .A. try the camera to see if there was anything wrong with itB. compare the camera he had chosen with the othersC. get more information about different companiesD. trust him and stop asking questions2. What does the writer mean by“it would be worth half what I paid for it” (Paragraph 2)?A. He should get a 50% discount.B. The price of the camera was unreasonably high.C. The quality of the camera was not good.D. The camera would soon fall in value.3. The writer decided to try the model he had chosen because he .A. knew very little about itB. didn’t trust the shop assistantC. wanted to make sure the one he chose would be the bestD. had a special interest in taking pictures of his fellow shoppers4. It can be inferred from the passage that in the writer’s opinion, .A. people waste too much money on camerasB. cameras have become an important part of our daily lifeC. we don’t actually need so many choices when buying a productD. famous companies care more about profit than quality【参考答案】1—4、 BDCC阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

What makes a person a scientist?Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others?The answer is “NO”.It is not what the tools that a scientist us es but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist.Yo u will probably agree that knowing how to use the power is im portant to a carpenter (木匠).You will probably agree,too,that knowing how to investigate (调查),how to discover information,is important to everyone.The scientist,however,goes one step further,he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his quest ions and that his answer can be confirmed (确认) by other persons.He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the worl d works.The scientist’s knowledge must be exact.There is no room forhalf right or right just half the time.He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit.What works under one set of conditio ns sometimes must work under the same conditions at other ti mes.If the conditions are different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration (演示) must be explained by the changes in the conditions.This is one reason that investigations are important in science.Albert Einstein,who developed the theory of relativity,arrived at this theory through mathematics.The accuracy of hi s mathematics was later tested through investigations.Einstei n’s ideas were shown to be correct.A scientist uses many tool s for measurements.Then the measurements are used to mak e mathematical calculations that may test his investigations. 1.What makes a scientist according to the passage? A.The tools he uses. B.His ways of learning.C.The ways he uses his tools. D.The different tools.解析:细节理解题。

【2016高考训练】阅读理解—推理判断题。
Expensive perfumes(香水) come in tiny bottles, but many hide a whale-sized secret. To perfect a particular smell, perfume-makers often use an ingredient that comes from sperm whales, called ambergris. But using ambergris, which helps a perfume last longer, is strongly opposed by many people who think it is wrong to kill whales just so we can sweet, Joerg Bohlmann is neither a perfumer nor a whale expert, He's a plant biologist at the University of British Columbia in Canada. But his discovery of a new plant gene(基因) might push whales out of the perfume business.The gene comes from fir trees, found throughout North America and commonly used as Christmas trees. The trees produce a chemical that can be used in perfume in place of ambergris—but with a catch.“There's a problem that many people wouldn't consider. In the tree, the chemical is mixed with many others. That makes separation a challenge,” Bohlmann says.”It's like trying to isolate sugar from a biscuit.”This is where science becomes useful. When Bohlmann learned that fir trees produce the ambergris-like chemical, he decided to use his gene know-how to find the instructions for how to make the ambergris-substitute.Bohlmann found that gene and took it out of the tree cells. Then he did something that might sound strange to someone who doesn't work in genetics: Bohlmann put the gene from the tree into yeast(酵母) cells.Yeast may sound familiar because it's used to make things like bread, wine and beer. Biologists like to work tith yeast because it easily adopts new genes and changes its features and behavior. When Bohlmann put the fir tree into the yeast, the yeast started making the same chemical that had seen produced by the tree.Perfumers pay big money for ambergris because it is a fixative, which means it holds a smell in place on a person's body.“Cheap perfumes smell good in the first hour or so and then everything it gone.” explains Bohlmann. “But expensive perfumes are much more stable. Their smell lastsmuch longer, for hours or even a day after you appl y them.”The new chemical, made from the tree genes, can be used as a fixative, too. And using yeast to make it is far cheaper than acquiring ambergris.Bohlmann admits he never thought he'd get into the perfume business. But now, he says, producers have been calling to find out how to use his technology in mew perfumes.1.It can be inferred from the passage that if a perfume contains ambergris, .A.Its user probably supports whale huntingB.Its smell will last for about an hourC.There will be a whale symbol on hourD.It is probably very expensive2.The underlined expression “with a catch” in Paragrph 3 means .A.Being difficult to holdB. having a hidden problemC. needing further testingD. being too similar3. According to the passage, why are yeast cells often used in genetic research?A. They can take on the characteristics of other genesB. They can reproduce much faster than other cells.C. They share some of the qualities of plant genes.D. They're much cheaper to use than ambergris.4. What can we learn about Joerg Bohlmann from the passage?A. He is opposed to whale hunting.B. He made his discovery during Christmas.C. He has worked in the perfume industry for many years.D. He has previously done genetic esearch.语篇解读本文是一篇科普说明文。

Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laug hing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that ever y time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿) it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. Thi s explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk , dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neuro ns not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell u s that there is a biological basis for the way we understand ot her people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use lan guages, and to understand how other people feel. Researcher s have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language.A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: “The hand took hold of the b all”) , the same mirror neurons weretriggered as when the acti on was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hol d of a ball) .Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with soci al and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how the se discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders. Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interac t (互动) . Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in th e cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you’ll understand why.1. Mirror neurons can explain .A. why we cry when we are hurtB. why we cough when we suffer from a coldC. why we smile when we see someone else smileD. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late2. The underlined word“triggered”in the third paragraph probably means“”.A. set offB. cut offC. built upD. broken up3. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons .A. relate to human behavior and interactionB. control human physical actions and feelingsC. result in bad behavior and social disordersD. determine our knowledge and language abilities4. What is the passage mainly about?to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.C. Existence of mirror neurons.D. Functions of mirror neurons.【参考答案】1—4、CAAD社会生活类----阅读理解。

Lady, I beg you to look whereyou're going!” A man complained to a journalist yesterday.[2]In fact, of more than 1, 000 people crossing 20 different roads in Seattle, 10% were listening to music, 7% were texting and 6% were having conversations on phone, the journal Injury Prevention reports and it estimates there was a 5% rise in the numbers of pedestrian deaths and injuries from June 2012.[3]The texters were four times more likely to ignore red lights or fail to look both ways before crossing.And it took almost two seconds longer to cross the road.Listening to music seems to shorten the time taken to cross the road, but when they were doing it they were less likely to look both ways before crossing.[4]Kevin Clinton, from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, said, “Looking properly when you are walking is as important as when you are driving, so take care not to be dangerously distracted, whether by mobile phones, listening to music or being caught up in conversations with other people.Road users need to be tuned in to what's happening around them and shouldn't do the wrong thing at the wrong time.We have always told motorists to look out for pedestrians.Now we are increasingly telling pedestrians to ________.A change in attitudes, similar to efforts around drunkdriving, will be important to limit the risk of pedestrian misbehavior.”Thank you!1.Why does the writer introduce the man's experience in Paragraph 1?

Today, this art form is facing the danger of extinction as the youngergeneration is mostly interested in pop culture. A Peking Opera project for primary and secondary schools was launched by China's Ministry of Education. But it has met with a cold reaction fromthe public. More than half of the 1,000 respondents from ten big cities expressed doubts about the practical meaning of the project in the survey conducted by the Social Survey Institute of China.The project plans to add 15 Peking Opera pieces into music courses in 200 schools in ten provinces. The pilot programs will last from March to July next year. At present, teaching materials and video tapes are still in production, China News Service reported. The Ministry of Education hopesthat the promotional course can help students better appreciate Chinese culture and cultivate a love for the mother country.The surveyed people do recognize Peking Opera as a comprehensive (综合性的) art form and a representative of the traditional culture. They also understand the purpose of the educational project. However, they wonder whether it is necessary for every student to learn to sing Peking Opera,when they are already stressed from endless exams. In fact, most music teachers themselves know little about this ancient art form, and thus arenot confident in arousing (激起) students' interest in its slow pace and abstruse (深奥的) lyrics.1.What's Peking Opera widely regarded as?
