AIf you have the opportunity to visit some places in New Zealand, then the list below is our recommendation.Fiordland National ParkThis park is part of the South Westland World Heritage Area and is New Zealand’s largest national park and one of the largest in the world. The scenery in Fiordland is nothing short of extremely beautiful, with steep mountains, wild waterfalls, and abundant rain forests. Being able to come back and forth in its deep bay attracts most of the visitors.The area has some of the w orld’s greatest walks including the world famous Milford Track, which was described as the finest walk in the world in the early twentieth century.Abel Tasman National ParkAbel Tasman may be New Zealand’s smallest national park, but the attractions are huge. Located in one of New Zealand’s sunniest spots, the area also has the best beaches in the country.The popular Abel Tasman Walk is a great way to see this park. It takes 3-5 days to complete. Sea taxis are also available and can drop you off at any number of beaches within the park.RotoruaAccessible from New Zealand’s biggest city, Auckland, Rotorua is famous for its volcanic activities. Rotorua is also famous for its plentiful lakes which are great for swimming and fishing. The surrounding area contains plenty of native bushes and some famous walks.Rotorua is also the best area in the country to experience and learn about Maori culture.Mt Cook National ParkMt Cook as well as the surrounding area is an alpine(高山的) park within the World Heritage listed in South Westland. The biggest peaks in all of Australasia are here. The park doesn’t contain many trees or plants due to the altitude. Walks range from a twohour walk to difficult tracks suitable for ex perienced mountaineers only.A helicopter or plane ride gives visitors excellent views of the mountains with the option of landing at the top of Tasman Glacier, a true permanent snowcovered alpine environment.【解题导语】本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍了新西兰值得游玩的几个地方。

2019高考英语 阅读理解(家庭、社会生活)(含解析)
(家庭、社会生活)李仕才导读:妈妈总是告诉我们如果我们在暗处看书会弄坏眼睛。
这种说法有科学依据吗?Some facts about vision scienceMom always told us we'd go blind if we read in the dark. Does science ①back her up? Jim Sheedy, a doctor of vision science and director of the Vision Performance Institute at Oregon's Pacific University, sets his sights on the truth.Dark MatterTurns out, our parents were wrong. “②There is no reason to believe nor evidence to support that any long-term damage to the eyes or change in the physiology to the eyes can be caused by reading in the dark,” Dr. Sheedy says.That is not to say that nocturnal page-turning won't lead to discomfort or fatigue.The lack of light will cause the pupils to dilate, ③resulting in a smaller depth of field—the distance between the nearest and farthest object that the eye considers to be in focus. Dr. Sheedy says the added effort to change focus and the effort to change the angle of the lines of sight between the two eyes will likely make your eyes feel tired and your body spent. But, of course, that's often the object of reading under the covers.Seeing ClearlyDr. Sheedy says he assures his students that there isn't enough evidence to argue that what you do with your eyes leads to myopia. 'The predominant determinant of myopia is genetics.' No link to long-term damage has ever been conclusively shown, says Dr. Sheedy. 'It's an old tale, a ploy used by moms to get kids to go to sleep when they wanted them to,' he says.Electronic AgeReading on a tablet device won't damage your eyes, Dr. Sheedy says. His team has studied various fonts, computer displays and pixel resolutions, and found the difference in effect on the eye between reading e-ink and the printed word to be negligible.He adds that pixel density and screen resolution have reached the point at which the eye doesn't know which it is seeing. So if reading a printed book in dim light is fine, so is reading a Kindle or iPad.Moving from Dark to LightThe eyes adapt quickly when going to the light—④emerging from a tunnel into the sun, say—but going to the dark 'requires the regeneration of photo pigments, and that takes some time to reach full dark-adaptation,' says Dr. Sheedy.Adjusting to the dim light next to your bed should only take seconds. But when going from bright light to maximum darkness, studies have shown, eye sensitivity continues to change for up to 25 minutes, he says.'Ever wonder why a pirate wears patches? It's not because he was wounded in a sword fight,' says Dr. Sheedy. Seamen must constantly move between the pitch black of below decks and the bright sunshine above.视觉科学的一些事实妈妈总是告诉我们如果我们在暗处看书会弄坏眼睛。
高三英语阅读理解 第2节 推理判断题 4 文章出处或读者对象题
四、文章出处或读者对象题(2019·全国Ⅲ,D)Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward.The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.Here’s how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone,who led the team,described the experiment:In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens.On one part of the screen,a symbol would appear,and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown.For example,the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8.If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle,they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.After running hundreds of tests,the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time,indicating that they were performing a calculation,not just memorizing the value of each combination.When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely,they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing,for example,a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6.The underestimation was systematic:When adding two numbers,the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two,and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.“This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains,”Dr Livingstone says.“But in this experiment what they’re doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。

高考英语阅读理解推理判断题专题解析2
第一编专题一考点2A(2019·全国卷Ⅱ,B)“You can use me as a last resort(选择),and if nobody else volunteers,then I will do it.”This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids'lacrosse (长曲棍球)club.I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule,or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport.She may just need a little persuading.So I try again and tug_at_the_heartstrings.I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on...At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright.Yes,I'll do it.”I'm secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many.The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule,sends out emails,and collects money for end-of-season gifts.Somewhere along the way,the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team.The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season.Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still,most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close.That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more:Connecting to the community(社区)as you freely give your time,money,skills,or services provides a real joy.V olunteering just feels so good.In that sense,I'm pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I'd freely like to admit.However,if others benefit in the process,and I get some reward too,does it really matter where my motivation lies?文章大意:主题:人与社会(社会服务);话题:志愿者。

2019高考英语阅读理解专题选编(8)李仕才AThe British are supposed to be famous for laughing at themselves, but even their sense of humor has a limit, as the British retailer Gerald Ratner found out to his cost.When Ratner took over his father’s chain of 140 jewelry shop s in 1984, he introduced a very clear company policy. He decided that his shops should sell down market products at the lowest possible prices. It was a great success. The British public loved his cheap gold earrings and his tasteless silver decorations. By 1991, Ratner’s company had 2,400 shops and it was worth over 680 million pounds. But in April of that year, Gerald Ratner made a big mistake. At a bit meeting of top British business people, he suited up and explained the secret of his success —People say “How can we sell our goods for such a low price?”. He say “Because they are absolute rubbish.” His audience burst out laughing. But the British newspapers and the British public were not so amused. People felt insulted and stayed away from Ratner’s shops.Sales fell and six months after his speech ,Ratner’s share price had fallen by 42%. The following year, things got worse and Gerald Ratner was forced to resign. By the end of 1992, he lost his company, his career and his house. Even worse, 25,000 of his employees had lost their jobs. It had been a very expensive joke.1.What are the British noted for according to the passage?A. Their jewelry shops.B. Their love for jewelry.C. Their jokes about themselves.D. Their harmless humor.2.How did Ratner achieve success in his business?A. He cut down his labor cost.B. He adopted an effective business model.C. He employed a lot of new staff.D. He developed great relations with business VIPs.3.Which of the following can best replace the underlined wor d “insulted”?A. Offended.B. Amazed.C. Abused.D. Attracted.4.What does the story of Gerald Ratner suggest?A. Action speaks louder than words.B.

They were dull and visually forbidding.可知,在19世纪30年代之前,只有大多数报纸中几乎没有能吸引大众的内容,让人感觉无聊,视觉上令人望而却步故那时的报纸没有什么吸引力分析选项,A. Academic学术的;B. Unattractive没有吸引力,无魅力的;C. Inexpensive廉价的,不贵的;D. Confidential机密的,保密的故A、C和D是错误的,只有B符合对19世纪30年代之前的报纸的描述,故选B【29题详解】推理判断题根据第二段提到“便士报纸”针对大众,很便宜,更重要的是,在街上可以买的到报纸;再结合第三段中间的within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities.可知,报纸的街头销售随处可见,而且很便宜,大家都负担得起,所以街头销售意味着读报纸的人多了故选C【30题详解】细节理解题根据第二段中的The trend, then, was toward the “penny paper”—a term referring to papers madewidely available to the public.可知,这种“便士报纸”针对大众,在街上就可以买得到故选B【31题详解】推理判断题根据最后一段中The new trend of newspapers for ‘the man on the street’ did not begin well.

It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.可知,“便士报纸”一开始并不好,一些早期的尝试立即失败了已经进入商业领域的成功的出版商,并不想改变这一传统后来一些年轻而大胆的商人才推动了这件事由此可推断出“便士报纸”的诞生是一个困难而曲折的过程故选A【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35.

On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.可知,当猴子触摸屏幕左边时,它们会得到7滴水或者果汁的奖励;当它们触摸屏幕的另一端(即画着圆圈的部分)时,它们会得到17滴水或果汁的奖励由此可知,猴子是通过触摸屏幕得到奖励的故B项正确【34题详解】细节理解题根据第四段“the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.和第五段中的When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.可知,猴子会在超过一半的时间内选择更高的值,这意味着它们在进行计算,而不仅仅是记住每一个组合的值所以猴子能够进行基本的加法计算故A项正确【35题详解】推理判断题通读整篇文章可知,该文介绍的是哈佛医学院的科学家Margaret Livingstone领导的一个研究团队对猴子进行实验得出的研究结果,这属于“科学研究”范畴,故该文应出现在报纸的“科学”版块故D项正确第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)【答案】36.

They are pointing the way to a future that is not far down the road. The high-tech company Google has a number of self-driving cars, Which had covered 480,000 kilometers by August. Volvo is among the companies dong road tests and says in plans to sell driverless cars by 2020.In September, California Governor Jerry Brown signed an act to allow autonomous vehicles on the roads of his state. “Today we’re looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow′s reality—the driverless car.” The systems been improved through competitions sponsored by the U. S. government agency DARPA. Engineer Richard Mason of the Rand Corporation helped design driverless vehicles for DARPA challenge races.Cars have become much more fuel-efficient, and new electronic features are making Hondas safer, said Angie Nucci of Honda America. “A camera on the passenger-side mirror actually engaged on your guiding screen so you can safely change lanes.” Other safety features include warning systems on the front and the sides of the cars. The syatems help drivers, but don′t replace them. Curatou Leslie Kendall of the Petersen Automotive Museum said autonomous cars will make the high ways safer.“By taking out drivers, you also remove most risks of an accident,” Kendall said, you also remove most risks of an accident,” Kendall said. He said consumers, however, may be unwilling to lose control. “It may take them time to come to realize that the technology is indeed reliable, but it will have to prove itself first”,Mason said the technology already works and the biggest challenge now is getting down the cost for driverless vehicles from hundreds of thousands of dollars to something more affordable. He said this will happen as the technology is improved.1.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Driverless vehicles are now legal in the whole USA.B.Volvo will be the first to sell driverless cars.C.Google′s self-driving cars have covered a long distance.D.Driverless cars are pointing us a faraway future.2.We learn that Governor of California Jerry Brown.A.Helped design self-driving cars.B.Supports self-driving cars on roads.C.Considers self-driving cars science fiction.D.Improved the self-driving car systems3.According to Richard Mason.

2019高考英语阅读理解-推理判断题(含解析)一、阅读理解1.根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Here are six steps to better studying.Pay attention in classDo you have trouble paying attention in class? Are you sitting next to a loud person? Tell your teacher or parents about any problem that is preventing you from paying attention.Take good notesWrite down facts that your teacher mentions or writes on the board. Try to use good handwriting so you can read your notes later. It's a good idea to keep your notes organized by subject.Plan ahead for tests and projectsWaiting until Thursday night to study for Friday's test will make it hard to do your best. One of the best ways to make sure that doesn't happen is to plan ahead. Write down your test dates. You can then plan how much to do after school each day, and how much time to spend on each topic.Break it upWhen there's a lot to study, it can help to break things into several parts. Let's say you have a spelling test on 20 words. Instead of thinking about all of the words at once, try breaking them down into five-word groups and work on one or two different groups each night.Ask for helpYou can't study effectively if you don't understand the material. Be sure to ask your teacher for help. If you're at home when the confusion occurs, your mom or dad might be able to help. Sleep tightSo the test is tomorrow and you've followed your study plan—but suddenly you can't remember anything! Don't panic. Your brain needs time to digest all the information you've given it. Try to get a good night's sleep and you'll be surprised by what comes back to you in the morning.(1)We know from the passage that a loud person is ________.A. a student who always answers questions loudly in classB. someone who likes to talk with others in a loud voiceC. a student who likes speaking with others in classD. a person who makes a lot of noise in public places(2)If you don't understand what you have learnt, you can ________.A. read your notes over and over againB. turn to people around you for helpC. put aside the material for later reviewD. ask your teacher to explain it the next day (3)By saying “Sleep tight”, what does the author mean?A. Sleep again after waking up.B. Sleep holding your breath deep.C. Get a good night's sleep.D. Go to sleep early every night.2.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,并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。
BHave you ever wondered why the roots of the plants always know which way to grow—into the soil but not above it? Some British scientists have recently solved this mystery.It turns out that roots have special hairs that tie them into the soil and help them grow their way past obstacles, a team at the John Inners Center in Norwich reports in the February 29 issue of Journal Science."The key is in the fuzzy(有绒毛的) coat of hairs on the roots of plants," says professor Liam Dolan. "We have found a growth control system that enables these hairs to find their way and to become longer when their path is clear."Root hairs explore the soil in much the same way a person would feel their way in the dark. If they come across an obstacle, they make their way around until they can continue growing in an opening. I the meantime, the plant is held in place as the hairs grip the soil.The hairs are guided by a clever chemical trick. A protein(蛋白质) at the tip of the root hairs called RHD2 helps them to take calcium(钙) from the soil. Calcium makes the hairs grow, and produce more RHD2, and take more calcium.But when an obstacle blocks the hair's path, or the hair reaches the surface of the soil, the cycle is broken and growth starts in another direction.This system gives plants the flexibility to explore a complex environment and to live in even the most unpromising soils, says Dolan.In poor soils such as in parts of Australia and Africa, native plants have adapted by producing enormous numbers of root hairs. A better understanding of this adaptation will allow scientists to develop hairy rooted crops that can grow in unfriendly environments.According to Dolan, "Research in the John Inners Center is taking a breeding approach(育种方法) to increase hair length in wheat but it will be some time before new cultivars(栽培变种) are developed."(1)The passage mainly tells us _______.A. how the hairs of the roots of plants grow into the soil but not above itB. how the roots of plants grow into the soil but not above itC. how the roots are covered with hairsD. how scientists control the growth of plants (2)What is the most important thing that enables the roots find their way?A. The hair on the roots.B. The soil around the roots.C. The tips of the roots.D. The shape of the roots.(3)What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A.

Mr. Blickez had told us that Elsie was the meanest bull in the town, maybe even in the county, and we believed him. But the hotter it got, the more we thought there was something fishy about his words. For one thing, we remembered Mr. Blickez liked telling tall tales; for another, Elsie seemed like a strange name for a bull.Finally, I talked Mom into asking permission for us to walk through the pasture, but then another problem surfaced. Mom said she would talk to Mr. Blickez if we would take our cousin Joanie along with us. Joanie was almost two years older than me and a head taller. If her teasing ever got around my grade school, it would be all over for me. In fact, I still had a headache from a quarrel with her that morning. “I'm not going swimming with that silly girl cousin,” I told my mom.“Either Joanie goes with, or you stay home alone,” Mom said in her serious tone(语气). I gave in and we set out. On your way across the pasture, Walt yelled suddenly. Elsie had approached him quietly and was licking(舔)his back. Joanie and I dove under the wire fence, but while I was on the ground I looked up and saw that Elsie wasn't a big mean bull after all. She was going to keep licking my brother's back as long as he stood still.We had many good days growing up and visiting our secret swimming hole guarded by theso-called “big mean bull”. And as it turned out, for a girl cousin, Joanie hasn't been too bad. She's been one of my best friends over the years.(1)What's the meaning of the underlined word “fishy” in Paragraph 2?A. Funny.B.

Plastic drinking straws are among many single-use plastic products contributing to the great loss of marine life, but they're a great place to start because they're something that are used by millions of Americans who are unaware that they're so damaging.Americans use more than 500 million straws daily, which is enough to fill 127 school buses each day and they can't be recycled. That means plastic straws might end up in oceans, where fish and other marine wildlife mistake the small bits for food and swallow them. After seeing a photo of a beached whale with a belly full of plastic, Grenier felt the inspiration to launch the Lonely Whale Foundation, hoping to inspire and educate others on the challenges faced by marine wildlife.Along with stopping the use of straws, Grenier hopes to educate consumer on the dangers of other single-use plastic items such as grocery bags and water bottles. While many Americans use these plastic products in their daily life, there are many alternatives that can help protect the environment such as straws made from stainless steel, glass, and even bamboo instead of plastic.In addition to quitting your straw habit, you can further help the environment by taking the I Choose to Reuse commitment, and stop your use of single-use coffee cups, checkout bags and bottled water. Instead, take advantage of any number of alternative reusable products.Need another reason to stop drinking from straws? Grenier also says using straws can cause wrinkles!(1)Protecting marine wildlife can start with stopping using plastic drinking straws becauseA. they are marine wildlife's favorite foodB. they are the most harmful plastic productsC. they are the plastic products people use mostD. they are widely used but their harm isn't fully realized(2)What made Grenier think of the idea to launch the Lonely Whale Foundation?A. A photo of piles of plastic waste.B. The sight of 127 school buses of straws.C. The fuel that many whales beach on the shore.D. A picture of beached whale with a belly full of plastic(3)What will Grenier encourage people to do in their daily life?A. Avoid drinking from bottles.B. Use cloth bags when shopping.C. Purchase single-use coffee cups.D. Use plastic straws to drink repeatedly.(4)Which word can best describe Adrien Grenier?A. Adventurous.B. Humorous.C. Responsible.D. Friendly.5.阅读理解French writer Frantz Fanon once said: “To speak a language is to take on a world, a culture.” Since the world changes every day, so does our language.More than 300 new words and phrases have recently made it into the online Oxford Dictionary, and in one way or another they are all reflections of today's changing world.After a year that was politically unstable, it's not hard to understand the fact that people's political views are one of the main drives of our expanding vocabulary. One example is “clicktivism”, a compound of “click” and “activism”. It refers to “armchair activists” — people who support a political or social cause, but only show their support from behind a computer or smartphone. And “otherize” is a verb for “other” that means to alienate (使疏远) people who are different from ourselves — whether that be different skin color, religious belief or sexuality.Lifestyle is also changing our language. For example, “fitspiration” — a compound of fit and inspiration — refers to a person or thing that encourages one to exercise and stay fit and healthy.The phrase “climate refugee” — someone who is forced to leave their home due to climate change — reflects people's concern for the environment.According to Stevenson, social media was the main source for the new expressions. “People feel much freer to coin their own words these days,” he said.But still, not all newly-invented words get the chance to make their way into a mainstream (主流的) dictionary. If you want to create your own hit words, Angus Stevenson, Oxford Dictionaries head of content development, suggests that you should not only make sure that they are expressive (有表现力的) and meaningful, but also have an attractive sound so that people will enjoy saying them out loud.(1)What is the article mainly about?A. Some new word that got included into the online Oxford Dictionary.B. The application of new words and phrases.C. How a language mirrors the changing world.D. The impact of social media on our language.(2)The underlined word “coin” in the second-to-last paragraph probably means ________. A. use B. record C. change D. create (3)How is the article mainly developed?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following a timeline.D. By presenting research findings.(4)According to Stevenson, to make the words you invent popular, they should ________. A. be easy to remember B. have unique meaningsC. reflect the changing worldD. be meaningful, expressive and catchy6.阅读理解You carry a 1.3 kg mass of fatty material in your head that controls everything you will ever do. This fantastic control center lets you think, learn, create, and feel emotions. It also controls everything your body does. What is this amazing machine? It's your brain — a structure so amazing that the famous scientist James Watson called it "the most complex thing we have yet discovered in our universe".Imagine your kitten jumped onto the kitchen counter, and was about to step onto a hot stove. You would have only seconds to act. In situations like this, your brain reads the signals from your eyes and quickly calculates when, where and at what speed you need to run to save her. Then ittells your muscles to move. No computer can match your brain's great ability to download, process, and react to the flood of information from your eyes, ears and other sensory organs.If a bee lands on your foot, sensory neurons(神经元) in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour. Your brain then uses motor neurons to send a message back to your foot: Shake the bee off quickly! Motor neurons can send this information at more than 320 kilometers per hour!Your brain contains about 100 billion tiny cells: neurons — it would take you more than 3,000 years if you tried to count them all. Whenever you dream, laugh, think, see or move, tiny chemical and electrical signals are racing between these neurons along billions of tiny neuron pathways. Believe it or not, the activity in your brain never stops. Countless messages fly around inside it every second, like a super-fast game of table tennis. Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the entire world. And although a single neuron generates only a tiny amount of electricity, all your neurons together can generate enough electricity to power a light bulb.(1)By "the most complex thing", James Watson means __________.A. a supercomputerB. the universeC. human brainsD. our emotions (2)Which of the following statements is true according to the 2nd and 3rd paragraph?A. Brains can download more information than any computer.B. The kitten plays an important role in testing human brain power.C. Motor neurons in human brains serve to send countless messages.D. Your brains can use neurons to send messages back faster than bees'.(3)The author mentions "to power light bulbs"(Para. 4) to show __________.A. neurons can send lots of messagesB. how many active tiny cells brains containC. how much electricity brains can generateD. there is countless information in the brain (4)What is the main idea of the passage?A. Powerful brain is a wonderful machine.B. Brains work well in controlling body movements.C. Brain is the most complex structure in the universe.D. Human brains are composed of numerous neurons.7.阅读理解“We haven't found anything that we can't recycle!”Cigarette ends are everywhere—littering our streets and beaches—and for decades they've been thought of as“unrecyclable”. But a New Jerseybased company, called TerraCycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking, but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging, between 2000 and 2014, global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a whole lot ofthose cigarette ends are ending up as trash. Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. “It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of w ater, ” TerraCycle founder, Tom Szaky, said. “Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food.”So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? TerraCycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish; and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these, TerraCycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.They're now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can't be recycled, such as chocolate packaging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill (垃圾填埋), and then get companies to provide money for the process. And so far, it's working.“We haven't found anything that we can't recycle,”communications director of Terra Cycle, Albe Zakes, said. “But with the amount and variety of packaging and litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.”(1)What does Terra Cycle intend to do?A. To search for recyclable materials for use.B. To recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable.C. To produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.D. To deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.(2)The underlined word “trash” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.A. poisonB. rubbishC. disasterD. ruin (3)What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The effective use of cigarette ends.B. The reason for breaking down cigarette ends.C. The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends.D. The process of recycling cigarette ends. (4)What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that ________.A. TerraCycle is trying to meet the challenge of new wasteB. it is difficult for TerraCycle to recycle everythingC. there is more and more waste to be recycledD. TerraCycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste8.阅读理解LUKLA, Nepal(Xinhua) – Qomolangma, known as Mount Everest in the West, once negatively recognized as the “world's highest junkyard”, is set to become cleaner as 30,000 porters(搬运工)have been mobilized(动员)for waste collection and disposal from the mountain's southern side. The cleanup drive was launched recently near Lukla airport, one of the world's most dangerous airports yet a vital gateway to the world's highest peak.“Our major task is to keep Everest, which is the pride of the world, clean. This campaign aimsto transport 100 tons of nonburnable garbage from the Everest region to Kathmandu in 2018,”Ang Dorje Sherpa, chairman of the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee said.The SPCC, an environmental conversation organization, has made it mandatory(强制性)since 2013 that every climber should carry down 8 kilograms of trash, but for trekkers(旅行者)there is no such regulation. Due to this, more than 100 tons of waste gets collected in the region annually.According to Nepalese government statistics, nearly 50,000 domestic and foreign trekkers visit the Qomolangma region annually, while more than 400 mountaineers attempt to scale the peak. The collected waste mostly includes empty beer bottles and cans, oxygen bottles, torn tents and sleeping bags, food bins, and discarded mountaineering and trekking equipment. The trash was collected by local groups in more than a dozen villages while the waste was transported down the mountain in sacks(麻布袋)by porters and yak-hybrid animals as zopkyos. The cleanup covered settlements from up to 5,000 meters near the base camp, to Lukla airport located at an altitude of 2,805 meters.On the first day of the campaign, several tons of waste was sent off to Kathmando from Lulka on planes belonging to Tara Airlines, one of the leading private airlines in Nepal. The airlines have set an ambitious target of flying out 100 tons of waste from the region in 2018, as a part of its commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals against climate change. The company's CEO Umesh Chandra Rai said: “We hope that this campaign will help the local people to maintain a pristine(原始的), natural and unspoiled environment so that more trekkers will come from everywhere, making the trekking industry here more sustainable.”(1)What's the first paragraph mainly about?A.

The most difficult cut in stained glass is called an inside cut. Basically, it's a curved (弯曲的) line where you throw away the part inside of the curve. The problem with inside cuts is that the edges of thecurve tend to break off when the pieces of scored glass are broken apart.As the artist talked about inside cuts, he said, “The glass will break into pieces if you try to cut too much off at once. The best way to do an inside cut is to slice off smaller curves piece-by-piece. In fact, it's not just the best way to do it, but it's the only way to do it.”How many times do you try to make a big change and cut the entire piece at once? We convince ourselves that we can do this all the time. We'll commit to transforming our diet overnight or we get inspired to launch a business in a weekend or we finally get motivated to work out and push ourselves to the edge of burning out.Why not approach your goals and dreams like a stained glass artist? Starting by slicing a shallow curve and breaking a small piece off, you cut a slightly deeper curve and break that off until you have your full inside cut. By slowly cutting deeper and deeper curves, you prevent the glass from breaking as it changes shape.Of course, change isn't easy — no matter how you do it. Slow gains are boring, but if we keep making small improvements, then pretty soon we will end up with a beautiful masterpiece on our hands instead of a bunch of broken pieces.(1)Why is an inside cut believed to be most difficult?A. It needs a one-and-only design.B. It calls for nothing but inspiration.C. The edges of the curve break easily.D. The glass inside the curve is easily broken. (2)What mistakes are easily made according to paragraph 3?A. Being too eager to make improvements.B. Being too worried about the final outcome.C. Trying to make a complete change all at once.D. Trying to focus on progress instead of achievements.(3)What does the author suggest by saying “slicing a shallow curve”?A. Moving forward with a clear aim.B. Starting slow and improving little by little.C. Developing a new habit with great determination.D. Handling something major first and ignore the minor part.(4)What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To show his love of stained glass.B. To introduce the skill of an inside cut.C. To appreciate designs of stained glass artists.D. To share his opinions on how to make a change.10.阅读理解It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. Some people have more disposable income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smartphones. Recent data has shown that the number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades. So should we celebrate the fact that more of us now have a better standard of living?Maybe not. While the gap between rich and poor in some countries is narrowing, there is still a lot of inequality in other places-some people have a lot of money and opportunities and others don't. A recent report by Oxfam and Credit Suisse revealed how divided many of us are when it comes to wealth. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. In fact, 48%of global wealth is owned by the richest 1% of the population.But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor less poor. According to Da vid Bryer from Oxfam, Brazil has been taking “some really sensiblemeasures-measures around having more progressive tax, around investing in a higher minimum wage and investing in central public services.” Having a higher minimum wage(提高最低工资标准), can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things-and factories can produce more. In turn, a factory which produces more will need more workers. So, more jobs are created.Other wealthy individuals are doing their bit to help reduce inequality. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their t axes but he also advises that they should all “look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic, both in their own country and to help the global poorest.”Bill Gates feels that giving money to help poor people is “fulfilling”. But if other super-rich people don't want to experience this fulfilment then, according to Oxfam, very soon the wealthiest 1% will soon own more money than the rest of the world's population. Do you think that is fair?(1)According to a recent report by Oxfam and Credit Suisse, .A. the gap between the rich and poor is widening graduallyB. increased wealth helps people to reduce the inequalityC. people should be happy about the world's getting richerD. a small number of people possess the major world wealth(2)What's the author's attitude towards Brazil's measures?A. CautiousB. ApprovingC. DoubtfulD. Critical (3)What is the meaning of the underlined word “philanthropic” in Paragraph 4?A. BroadmindedB. ResponsibleC. RealisticD. Merciful (4)The author develops the article mainly by .A. comparing opinions from different fieldsB. listing detailed numbers and analyzing themC. presenting research findings and giving some examplesD. presenting a trend and analyzing its cause and effect。
