第9节饮食与健康(一)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·湖南岳阳二模)Animal lovers have long suspected that playing with pups was good for the soul，and now science has confirmed it—for students in particular.The results of a new study done by researchers at the University of British Columbia concluded that the college students who spent time at dropin dog therapy sessions experienced an increase in feelings of wellness and a reduction in overall stress.The study，as reported by Science Daily，indicates that playing with pups is not only popular with the students，it’s also beneficial to their health.This finding was seen across gender(性别)．The study，published on March 12 in the journal Stress and Health，involved 246 students who were surveyed before and after they dropped by dog therapy sessions.The young participants were given free access to pet，hug with and talk to seven to 12 therapy dogs.Additionally，they filled out questionnaires right before and right after hanging with the dogs，as well as 10 hours later.According to researchers，these young adults reported a notable increase in happiness，a significant reduction in stress and a flood of energy right after their sessions with the pups.Although the reported feelings of happiness and satisfaction weren’t longlasting，researchers say other effects have clear，positive advantages.“These sessions clearly provide benefits for students in the shortterm，so we think universities should try to schedule them during particularly stressful times，such as around exam periods，” Assistant Professor of Psychology at UBC and the study’s senior author，Frances Chen told Science Daily.“Even having therapy dogs around while students are working on their outofclass assignments could be helpful.”语篇解读这篇文章主要讲了和小狗玩对人的精神健康有好处，特别是对学生。

AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that woul dn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t got any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.2.Which of the following can best replace the phrase”signed off”in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programsB. provided fewer channelsC. changed to commercialsD. showed all-night movies3. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. By having it repaired.4. How does the another sound when telling the story ?A. CuriousB. AnxiousC. CautiousD. HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious（难为情）when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里）per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes, Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake（摄入）jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.5. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.A. their home comfortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets6. A home environment in blue can help people_________.A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites7. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly.B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons.D. Turn down the lights.8. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore student than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年)before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, theirc hosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student had ship – young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to ￡15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree.NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said.9. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?A. It is flexible in length.B. It is a time for relaxation.C. It is increasingly popular.D. It is required by universities.10. According to Tony Higgins,students taking a gap year______.A. arc better prepared for college studiesB. know a lot more about their future jobsC. are more likely to leave university in debtD. have a better chance to enter top universities11. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?A. He's puzzled.B. He's worried.C. He's surprised.D. He's annoyed.12. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?A. Attend additional courses.B. Make plans for the new term.C. Earn money for their education.D. Prepare for their graduate studies.DChoose Your One-Day ToursTour A—Bath & Stonehenge including entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms and Stonehenge —￡until 26 March and ￡39 thereafter.Visit the city with over 2,000 years of history and Bath Abbey, the Royal Crescent and the Costume Museum.

2019高考英语全国通用版精准提分二轮试题第三部分话题拓展阅读与写作语法运用第31节文学与艺术(一)Ⅰ.阅读理解ADo you listen to the songs that your parents like? Chances are that you don’t.You probably think the music that they like is old and dull and that the songs on your playlist are much cooler.But here is what scientists found recently：people’s music tastes change as they age，according to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.So it’s likely that your own musical preference will follow a similar path to your parents’，whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality are the only factors that affect one’s music choice.But researchers at the University of Cambridge，UK，gathered data from more than 250,000 people over the past 10 years.They noticed that as people age，their social circumstances change，and so does their music tastes.There are three musical periods that people pass through as they mature—“intense”，“contemporary” and “sophisticated”．The first period comes in the teenage years，during which time people like intense music such as punk and rock because teenagers tend to be aggressive and want to establish their identity as independent individuals.But as people move into early adulthood，their lifestyle changes—they socialize more and want to build close relationships with others.As a result，they become more fond of contemporary music，such as pop and R&B，which is usually uplifting and danceable and played at parties where people hang out together and chat.When middle age comes，things have settled down for most people.This period will be dominated(支配) by more “sophisticated” music，such as jazz and classical，as well as more catchy music like country，folk，and blues.“For many，this life stage is frequently exhausted by work and family，and there is a requirement for relaxing，emotive(有感染力的) music，” Jason Rentfrow，a researcher member，told The telegraph.But you must be thinking：“Aren’t there old people who are still into rock music？” Of course there are.But Rentfrow explained that their reasons for listening to rock music may havechanged.“We use music for different reasons，” he said，and thus at that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youths.1．Why do children usually like different songs from their parents according to the passage? A．Children prefer cool music.B．Music taste changes with age.C．Parents’ songs are always dull.D．Parents have better social circumstances.答案 B解析细节理解题。

O n the Twentieth Century.BFor Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative."It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers," says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚)shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学)on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion —they are central to its movement. "Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China —some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galiano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. "The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says. "China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China —its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."24.What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A. It promoted the sales of artworks.B. It attracted a large number of visitors.C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.25.What does Hill say about Chinese women?A. They are setting the fashion.B. They start many fashion campaigns.C. They admire super models.D. They do business all over the world.26.What do the underlined words "taking on" in paragraph 4 mean?A. learning fromB. looking down onC. working withD. competing against27.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC. Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD. Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsCBefore the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades. In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper"—a term referring to papers made widely available to the public. It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny—usually two or three cents was charged —and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase "penny paper " caught the public's fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were immediate failures. Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.28.Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s?A. Academic.B. Unattractive.C. Inexpensive.D. Confidential.29.What did street sales mean to newspapers?A. They would be priced higher.B. They would disappear from cities.C. They could have more readers.D. They could regain public trust.30.Who were the newspapers of the new trend targeted at?A. Local politicians.B. Common people.C. Young publishers.D. Rich businessmen.31.What can we say about the birth of the penny paper?A. It was a difficult process.B. It was a temporary success.C. It was a robbery of the poor.D. It was a disaster for printers.DMonkeys 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.”32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?A. They fed them.B. They named them.C. They trained them.D. They measured them.33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?A. By drawing a circle.B. By touching a screen.C. By watching videos.D. By mixing two drinks.34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?A. They could perform basic addition.B. They could understand simple words.C. They could memorize numbers easily.D. They could hold their attention for long.35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Education.D. Science.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Which play will you go to if you are interested in American history?A.Animals Out of Paper.B.The Audience.C.Hamilton.D. O n the Twentieth Century.BFor Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative."It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers," says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚)shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学)on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries.The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook," says Hill. "Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion — they are central to its movement." Of course, only are today's top Western designers being influenced by China — some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese." Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design and sales," adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion."The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers," she says."China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China — its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways."4. What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?第2页徐老师A. It promoted the sales of artworks.B. It attracted a large number of visitors.C. It showed ancient Chinese clothes.D. It aimed to introduce Chinese models.5. What does Hill say about Chinese women?A. They are setting the fashion.B. They start many fashion campaigns.C. They admire super models.D. They do business all over the world.6. What do the underlined words "taking on" in paragraph 4 mean?A. learning fromB. looking down onC. working withD. competing against7. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC. Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD. Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsCBefore the 1830s, most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America, usually $8 to $10 a year. Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money, but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens. Accordingly, newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or the trades.In addition, most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience. They were dull and visually forbidding. But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend, then, was toward the "penny paper"— a term referring to papers made widely available to the public.It meant any inexpensive newspaper; perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight. It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830,but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printer's office to purchase a copy.Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newspapers would be commonplace in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny—usually two or three cents 第3页was charged —and some of the older well-known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase "penny paper" caught the public's fancy, and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street" did not begin well. Some of the early ventures(企业)were immediate failures.Publishers already in business, people who were owners of successful papers, had little desire to change the tradition. It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.8. Which of the following best describes newspapers in America before the 1830s?A. Academic.B. Unattractive.C. Inexpensive.D. Confidential.9. What did street sales mean to newspapers?A. They would be priced higher.B. They would disappear from cities.C. They could have more readers.D. They could regain public trust.10. Who were the newspapers of the new trend targeted at?A. Local politicians.B. Common people.C. Young publishers.D. Rich businessmen.11. What can we say about the birth of the penny paper?A. It was a difficult process.B. It was a temporary success.C. It was a robbery of the poor.D. It was a disaster for printers.DMonkeys 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 第4页徐老师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."12. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?A. They fed them.B. They named them.C. They trained them.D. They measured them.13. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?A. By drawing a circle.B. By touching a screen.C. By watching videos.D. By mixing two drinks.14. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?A. They could perform basic addition.B. They could understand simple words.C. They could memorize numbers easily.D.They could hold their attention for long.15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Education.D. Science.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

第3节旅游与交通(一)Ⅰ.阅读理解AWhy does most of the world travel on the right side today? Theories differ，but there’s no doubt that Napoleon was a major influence.The French have used the right since at least the late 18th century.Some say that before the French Revolution，noblemen drove their carriages on the left，forcing the peasants to the right.Regardless of the origin，Napoleon brought righthand traffic to the nations he conquered，including Russia，Switzerland and Germany.Hitler，in turn，ordered righthand traffic in Czechoslovakia and Austria in the 1930s.Nations that escaped righthand control，like Great Britain，followed their lefthand tradition.The U．S.has not always been a nation of righthand drivers；earlier in its history，carriage and horse traffic travelled on the left，as it did in England.But by the late 1700s，people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift(改变) to the right.A driver would sit on the rear(后面的) left horse in order to wave his whip(鞭子) with his right hand；to see opposite traffic clearly，they travelled on the right.One of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the U．S.occurred in the 20th century，when Henry Ford decided to massproduce his cars with controls on the left(one reason，stated in 1908: the convenience for passengers exiting directly onto the edge，especially... if there is a lady to be considered)．Once these rules were set，many countries eventually adjusted to the righthand standard，including Canada in the 1920s，Sweden in 1967 and Burma in 1970.The U．K.and former colonies such as Australia and India are among the Western world’s few remaining holdouts(坚持不变者)．Several Asian nations，including Japan，use the left as well—though many places use both righthanddrive and lefthanddrive cars.语篇解读文章主要解释了为什么世界上有的国家靠右行驶，有的国家靠左行驶。

第16节语言学习(二)Ⅰ.阅读理解AThe following are some tips on how to choose appropriate foreign language reading materials.Find the right level of difficulty.Find something that you can read with minimal use of a dictionary.If you have to refer to a dictionary too much，you will quickly get tired and confused when trying to put all pieces together.Fortunately，authentic texts range in difficulty from simplest to the most complex，so you can always find something that is appropriate for your level.Choose topics with which you are familiar.Familiarity with the topic will make it easier for you to guess the meaning of unfamiliar words and to compensate(弥补) for gaps in your linguistic knowledge.If you are a beginning or intermediate reader，choose short newspaper and magazine articles dealing with topics about which you have some knowledge.For instance，reading about a current event in your native language and then reading about it in the foreign language is a good way to begin reading foreign language newspapers.Choose materials that are of interest to you.Choose materials that you think you might be interested in.If you find the materials interesting，you will be more likely to continue reading—and that is already half the battle.For example，if you are planning to travel，read a guide about the country in the foreign language.If you are interested in the country where the language you are studying is spoken，subscribe a newspaper or a magazine from that country.Newspapers and magazines are particularly suitable for people learning to read because they offer something for everybody，contain texts of varying levels of difficulty，and usually have photos and illustrations. 语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。

第30节世界与环境(二)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2018·北京石景山区一模)Average humans can consume 15 or more drinks in plastic bottles a month.If you were born after 1978，and live until 80 years old，you will leave behind a minimum of 14,400 plastic bottles on this planet.These bottles take hundreds of years to break down into tiny pieces of plastic，never to completely disappear.Most of the waste is consumed by fish and birds，which has shortened their lifetime greatly.The Plastic Bottle Village is just a great idea that might finally save us from being buried in plastic.It’s a community in Panama that is going to be made of used bottles.The design process begins with building steel frames，which are then filled with these bottles.Once this step is completed，and electrical and plumbing(管道装置) lines are put inside，the plastic walls are covered by concrete—both inside and outside.So no one will actually be able to tell that the walls are made of plastic.Besides，the material will keep the house 17℃ cooler than the outside，which is the biggest benefit to people living inside.The village is the brainchild(主意) of Robert Bezeau with the intention of setting up several environmental projects.Having started a recycling program four years ago，during which a number of plastic bottles were collected，he started to think of how they could be put to use.Soon enough，he decided to use them to build houses，and came up with a basic idea for the construction process.The project hopes to make people conscious of the waste that these bottles create so that they can do more to protect the environment.The village will also create an education center that will teach individuals from the world how to reuse plastic bottles as construction materials for shelter.Recycled bottles could neutralize the negative effect of your passage on this planet，and move closer to leaving only your “footprints”．1．What does Paragraph 1 intend to tell us?A．The reason for buying fewer drinks.B．The difficult situation of wildlife.C．The amount of plastic waste.D．The seriousness of plastic pollution.答案 D解+析推理判断题。

故选D项。
B(2018·山东淄博一模)Recycling is essential in today’s world.The most important reason for this is that humanprogress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things，and when people have many material possessions，they are bound to throw some of them away.This creates a lot of garbage which in turn destroys the environment.Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again，preventing the littering of the environment.Instead of throwing all your garbage into the trash can，you should separate paper，metal，glass，and plastic into different containers.c-o/mpost should also be recycled as this is excellent food for farm animals and also makes for great fertilizer(肥料)．You should try to buy products that have been recycled.You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label; if it’s been recycled，it will say so.Also，instead of always buying new clothes，you can arrange to have a clothing swap with your friends.You bring clothes you don’t want and pick items you want from what other people have brought.Not only does this save the environment，but it also saves your pocketbook.Remember，what is one person’s junk can be someone else’s treasure! The saying can be applied to all sorts of things：books，CDs，furniture，etc.Also，try shopping at second-hand stores，because they often have lots of items still in good shape for you to choose.Many countries have made it easy for people to recycle，as alongside the normal garbage trucks，special garbage trucks come and pick up recyclables.However，in many countries around the world the responsibility is left up to the individual to recycle.Therefore，it must be made a priority(优先考虑的事) in society so we can continue to make our environment livable.5．Why is more waste being made in today’s world?A．People dislike the updated items.B．People own abundant belongings.C．People intend to live a simple life.D．People have made great progress in industry.答案 B解+析细节理解题。
