高考英语二轮专题复习阅读理解环境保护类提分训练（真题集锦，含解析）新人教版[3](2013·大纲版全国卷·E)The oldest and most common source(来源)of renewable energy known to man,biomass is one of the most important forms of energy production in the United States and elsewhere.Since such a wide variety of biomass materials is everywhere—from trees and grasses to agricultural and city-life wastes—biomass pro mises to play a continuing role in providing power and heat for millions of people around the world.According to the Union of Concerned Scientists(UCS),biomass is a kind of renewable energy source that produces no carbon dioxide(二氧化碳),because the energy it contains comes from the sun.When plant matter is burned,it gives off the sun’s energy.In this way,biomass serves as a sort of natural battery(电池)for storing the sun’s energy.As long as biomass is produced continuously—with only as much grown as is used—the“battery”lasts forever.According to the Energy Information Administration, biomass has been one of the leading renewable energy sources in the United States for several years running through 2007, making up between 0.5 and 0.9 percent of the nation’s total electricity supply.In 2008—although the numbers aren’t all in yet—wind power probably took over first place because of the rapid development of wind farms across the country.Producing power from biomass helps reduce some 11 million tons of carbon dioxide each year.Some homeowners also try to make their own heat by using biomass materials.Such practice may save homeowners’money, but it also produces a lot of pollution. So, the best way is to encourage power plants to use it.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了biomass(生物能)将为世界上成千上万的人们提供能源和热量。

Electrical lines have been killing them off.“As they go in to rest for thenight ， they just don't see the power lines，” says Bruce Rideout of San DiegoZoo.Their wings can bridge the gap between lines，resulting in electrocution (电死 ) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea.Tall poles，placed in largetraining areas，teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving thema painful but undeadly electric shock.Before the training was introduced，66% ofset － free birds died of electrocution.This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with.When condors eat deadbodies of other animals containing lead ， they absorb large quantitiesaffects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds，and can lead to kidney( 肾 ) failure and death.So condors with high levels of lead are sent to LosAngeles Zoo ， where they are treated with calcium EDTA，a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days.This work is starting to pay off.The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout's team thinks that the California condors' average survival time inthe wild is now just under eight years. “ Although these measures are not effective forever，they are vital for now，” he says.“They are truly good birds that areworth every effort we put into recovering them.63．California condors attract researchers' interest because they ________A． are active at night ．”B． had to be bred in the wildC． are found only in CaliforniaD． almost died out in the 1980s64． Researchers have found electrical lines are ________A． blocking condors' journey home．B． big killers of California condorsC．rest places for condors at nightD． used to keep condors away65．According to Paragraph 5，lead poisoning ________A．makes condors too nervous to flyB． has little effect on condors' kidneysC． can hardly be gotten rid of from condors' bloodD． makes it difficult for condors to produce baby birds．66．This passage shows that ________A． the average survival time of condors is satisfactoryB．Rideout's research interest lies in electric engineering C．theefforts to protect condors have brought good resultsD． researchers have found the final answers to the problem．语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

高考英语二轮阅读理解归类复习-环境保护(详解)

2013 高考英语二轮阅读理解归类复习—环境保护AWilderness“ In wilderness （荒野） is the preservation of the world. ” This is a famous saying from a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalism.The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated debate on environmental protection ：whether to place wilderness at the heart of what is to be preserved.As John Sauven of Greenpeace UK points out ，there is a strong appeal in images of the wild ，the untouched ；more than anything else ，they speak of the nature that many people value most dearly.The urge to leave the subject of such images untouched is strong ，and the danger exploitation （开发）brings to such landscapes （景观）is real.Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need —the rainforests ，for example ，store carbon in vast quantities.To Mr. Sauven ，these “ ecosystem services ” far outweigh the gains from exploitation.Lee Lane ， a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute ，takes the opposing view.He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful services ，such as water conservation.But that is not ，he argues， a reason to avoid all human presence ，or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation.There are ever more people on the Earth ，and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better lives ，rather than merely struggle for survival.While the ways of using resources have improved ，there is still a growing need for raw materials ，and some wildernesses contain them in abundance.If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide ，the argument goes，there is no further reason not to do so.Being untouched is not ，in itself ， a characteristic worth valuing above all others.I look forward to seeing these views taken further ，and to their being challenged by the other participants.One challenge that suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the question of spiritual value a little more directly.And there is a practical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feelings ，but also the guidance of reason.What position wilderness should enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously deserves much more serious thinking.【语篇解读】荒野是否应该开发？仁者见仁，智者见智，两种观点针锋相对，莫衷一是。

An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (迁徙).Migratory birds (候鸟) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is accompanied by some human behavior. "In English-language Wikipedia (维基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States," said the lead author John Mittermeier.And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly 2.5 billion Wikipedia search records, for 32,000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world's biological diversity. It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation.Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He commented, "I think there's a concern among conservationists (生态环境保护者) that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they're not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people's Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature."Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, "By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help."（1）What have researchers found about species searches?A.They strengthen ties among people.B.They affect the animal movements.C.They differ in language backgrounds.D.They reflect animal migration seasons.（2）What is the purpose of writing Paragraph 3?A.To summarize the research process.B.To further support the research findings.C.To show the variety of species searches.D.To present researchers' heavy work load.（3）How does Mittermeier feel about the search results?A.Satisfied with Wikipedia's service.B.Worried about Wikipedia behavior.C.Amazed at people's care about nature.D.Sad about people's not getting close to nature.（4）Why does Richard think such search data is useful?A.It helps to aim at conservation targets.B.It increases interest in big data approaches.C.It keeps track of trends in biologists' work.D.It pushes people to solve difficult problems.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）C（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，牛津大学的一个国际研究小组发现，人们使用互联网的方式与自然界的季节性运动密切相关。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校环境保护类Passage 1 （2011•广东卷•D）In a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decade has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decade. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger management of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid the huge public expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of a growing population within the limits of this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.41. The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that ______.A. it makes the world warmerB. it consumes natural resourcesC. it brings severe damage to forestsD. it makes growth hard to continue42. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. China lacks wind and solar energy.B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.43. To fully develop the low-carbon markets, government can ______.A. cut public expensesB. forbid carbon emissionC. develop public resourcesD. encourage energy conservation44. We can learn from the last paragraph that businesses have many chances to ______.A. develop sustainable productsB. explore new natural resourcesC. make full use of natural resourcesD. deal with the major challenge45. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To introduce a new business model.B. To compare two business models.C. To predict a change of the global market.D. To advocate sustainable development.【文章大意】人类传统的产业发展模式对地球的环境造成了严重的危害，森林减少、全球变暖等环境问题愈发严重。

Robots are now being employed not just for dangerous tasks, such as discovering mines or rescuing people in disasters. They are also finding application as household helps and as nursing assistants. As increasing numbers of machines, equipped with the latest artificial intelligence, take on a growing variety of specialized and everyday tasks, the question of how people see them and behave towards them becomes ever more urgent.A team led by Sari Nijssen of Radboud University and Markus Paulus, Professor of Developmental Psychology at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU), have carried out a study to determine the degree to which people show concern for robots and behave towards them based on moral principles.According to Sari Nijssen, the study set out to answer the following question:" Under what circumstances would adults be willing to sacrifice robots to save human lives?" The participants were faced with a hypothetical (假设的) moral dilemma: Would they be prepared to put a single person at risk in order to save a group of injured persons? In the situations presented the intended victim was either a human, a humanoid robot that had been humanized (人性化的) to various degrees or a robot that was clearly recognizable as a machine.The study suggested that the more the robot was humanized, the less likely participants were to sacrifice it. Situations that included vivid stories in which the robot was described as a merciful being or as a creature with its own understandings, experiences and thoughts, were more likely to stop the study participants from sacrificing it in the interests of anonymous (无名的) humans. "This result indicates that our study group attached a certain moral status to the robot," says Paulus. "One possible suggestion of this finding is that attempts to humanize robots should not go too far. Such efforts could come into conflict with their intended function—to be of help to us."（1）What has become a concern about robots?A. How to humanize them.B. How to treat them in life.C. How to use them effectively.D. How to find more applications.（2）In the study the participants probably have to decide ________.A. when to sacrifice a robotB. where to experience risksC. which robot to work withD. what robots should be like（3）What can be inferred from Paulus' words?A. Humanized robots offer less help to people.B. Humanizing robots too much may be improper.C. Certain moral status should be attached to robots.D. Conflicts often happen between humans and robots.（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Robots, A Must for FutureB. Humanized Robots, A New TrendC. Robot Saved, People Take the HitD. Humanized Robots, Replace Human【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，随着越来越多的机器人具有人性化，它们承担越来越多样化的专业和日常任务，人们如何看待他们，如何对待他们的问题变的迫在眉睫。

Against the supposition that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forestsin these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken inby the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone (臭氧) levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling."We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere." Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.（1）According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may ________.A. result in a warming climateB. cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there（2）The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT ________.A. large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphereB. the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increaseC. snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into spaceD. ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun（3）Earlier studies about northern forest fires ________.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect the environmentD. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming（4）The underlined phrase "soak up" in the last paragraph most probably means ________.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. distributed（5）From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may ________.A. warm the climate as the supposition goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energy【答案】（1）A（2）C（3）D（4）B（5）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了阿拉斯加、加拿大和西伯利亚的森林大火使气候变暖，科学家们已经发现，在燃烧的树木允许更多的雪将更多的阳光反射到太空的地区可能会发生冷却。

A shark moving around the coastline is normally a worrying sight，but this waterborne drone (无人机) threatens floating rubbish instead of people.Developed by Dutch company RanMarine, the WasteShark takes nature as its inspiration withits whale shark-like mouth. Responsible for collecting waste, the drone will begin operations in Dubai Marina in November after a year of trials with local partner Ecocoast.According to RanMarine, the WasteShark is available in both autonomous and remote-controlled models. Measuring just over five feet by three-and-a-half feet (1.5 meters by 1.1 meter), it can carry up to 352 pounds of rubbish (159.6 kg) and has an operational battery life of16 hours.By 2016 there were approximately 150 million tons of plastic in the world's oceans. One paper from December 2014 estimated that over a quarter of a million tons of ocean plastic pollutionwas afloat."WasteShark also has the abilities to gather air and water quality data, remove chemicals out of the water such as oil, and heavy metals, and scan the seabed to read its depth and outlines," said Oliver Cunningham, one of the co-founders of RanMarine. "Fitted with a collision-avoidance system, the drone uses laser imaging detection and ranging technology to detect an object in its path and stop or back up if the object approaches.""Our drones are designed to move through a water system, whether it's around the perimeter(周边) or through the city itself. The drones are that last line of defense between the city and the open ocean," added Cunningham. "WasteSharks are operating in Dubai, South Africa and the Netherlands and cost $ 17, 000 for the remote-controlled model and just under $ 23, 000 for the autonomous model."Dubai-based operator Ecocoast has two WasteShark drones. Co-founder Dana Liparts says they will clean waterfronts for clients including hotels and environmental authorities and that Ecocoast' intention is to have the collected rubbish recycled or upcycled. However, Liparts argues that cleaning waterways doesn't have a one-size-fits-all solution and requires a combination ofnew technology, preventative measures and changing people's attitudes towards littering.（1）What do we know about the WasteShark?A. It can frighten sharks away.B. It is an ocean explorer.C. It is a rubbish collector.D. It can catch fish instead of people.（2）What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A. The causes of ocean pollution.B. The dangers of using plastics.C. The severity of ocean garbage pollution.D. The importance of ocean protection.（3）What will the WasteShark do with an approaching object?A. Avoid crashing into it.B. Break it into pieces.C. Swallow it.D. Fly over it.（4）Which of the following ideas does Liparts agree with?A. The WasteShark should be used more widely.B. More measures should be taken to make water clean.C. The production cost of WasteSharks should be reduced.D. People should take a positive attitude to new technology.【答案】（1）C（2）C（3）A（4）B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍一种水上无人机可以用于清理浮在水面上的垃圾。

高二英语环保措施阅读理解25题

高二英语环保措施阅读理解25题1<背景文章>Renewable energy sources are playing an increasingly important role in meeting the world's energy needs. Solar power, one of the most popular forms of renewable energy, harnesses the energy of the sun to generate electricity. Solar panels can be installed on rooftops or in large solar farms, and they produce clean energy with no emissions.Wind power is another major renewable energy source. Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of the wind into electricity. Offshore wind farms are becoming more common as they can take advantage of stronger and more consistent winds.Hydropower has been used for centuries to generate electricity. Dams are built on rivers to create reservoirs, and the flow of water is used to turn turbines. Hydropower is a reliable source of energy, but it can have an impact on the environment.Biomass is also a form of renewable energy. Biomass can be derived from plant materials, such as wood chips and agricultural waste. Biomass can be burned to generate heat or electricity, but it can also release carbon dioxide.The advantages of renewable energy sources are numerous. They areclean and do not produce greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to combat climate change. They are also sustainable and will never run out. In addition, renewable energy sources can create jobs and stimulate economic growth.As technology continues to advance, the cost of renewable energy is decreasing, making it more competitive with fossil fuels. In the future, renewable energy is expected to play an even greater role in meeting the world's energy needs.1. What is one of the most popular forms of renewable energy?A. Wind powerB. HydropowerC. Solar powerD. Biomass答案：C。

As the world's second-largest hydropower project, the Baihetan Dam began generating power on June 28,2021. Among the top concerns about the dam 62. (be ) the biodiversity in the local region. But many local residents believe that worry is unnecessary.Ever since experts and engineers got down to 63. (construct) the Baihetan Dam, local villagers like Lvalso been well protected throughout the entire process of dam building, " said Lv.Chen Yang, a local official, said a lot of work had been done 65. (preserve ) the environment, especially the biodiversity in the area. " We built a botanic garden 66. aim is to provide a home for trees more than 100 years old transplanted from the area which will be flooded, " said Chen. " We have also built a fish breeding station and established a fish collection system that moves fish 67. the lower side of the dam to the upper side. "The works will continue down the road. Chen said he and his colleagues would carry on scientific research work on ecological restoration, including soil 68. (improve) on high and steep slopes, which would be 69. (high) significant for the dry-hot valley regions and the entire Jinsha River Basin in70. long run.Passage 2March 12th is China's annual National Tree Planting Day. On this day, millions of Chinese, from all walks of life, will put their work at hand aside 61. a moment, take spades and buckets as well as young tress, and go out 62. (green) their hometowns.China's Tree Planting Day could date back to a proposal 63 (make) by Lin Daoyang and Qingming Festival (April 5th) 64 (adopt) as Tree Planting Day then. However, April 5th was a late time for tree-planting in Southern China, so it was changed to March 12th in order to memorize Sun Yat-Asen, 65. passed away on March 12th.In February 1979, the 5th National People's Congress of PRG made a 66. decide thatMarch 12th would be taken as Chinese Tree Planting Bay, requiring the whole country to carry out tree-planting 67. (activity) on this day.Now tree-planting in spring has become a tradition for Chinese. For those 68. (live) in big cities, Tree Planting Day is 69 excellent time for skipping the city. They often take the planting as a nice short tourback to nature with their family members. After the work together, they not good ) environment but also more harmonious family relations as well as more enthusiasm for the future.Passage 3It was estimated that around 1. 2 million tons of artificial snow was produced for the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games 61 (hold) in February this year.

Undoubtedly, this was another major use of technological advancements in sports.The first time people used artificial snow to host a competition 63. (be) back in 1980. The Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games used 80% artificial snow, 64. later rose to 90% at the PyongChang Winter Olympics 2018. However, this year's competition had about 100% artificial snow made for the Games. The two snowboarding venues were Yanging and Tangjiakou. A nearby reservoir（水库）was the direct resource center for making snow. Water mist was sprayed 65 into the snow with the 66 the air, which then crystallized freeze air temperature. Ships from 67. Italy company delivered the equipment back in 2019 as they did not want any delay.However, with huge amounts of water used, it raised different 68. (environment )concerns.

But the opposite is true for men, whose long-term health benefits when they move in with a female partner.Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their dietary habits to suit their other half.It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to make creamier, heavier dishes curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner. Women still have the strongest long-term influence over the couple's diet and lifestyle, as they still have the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.The report, by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and lifestyle habits of couples.The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partnerWomen also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening was particularly important to many.Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, "The research has shown that your partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this factor into consideration."（1）According to the passage, moving in with a girlfriend, men ________.A. have few changes of their dietary habitsB. have to eat more unhealthy foodsC. don't like foods high in fat and sugar at allD. try to eat foods that their girlfriends like（2）The underlined word "light" (in Paragraph 4) probably means ________.A. not very heavyB. less in fat and sugarC. gentleD. not serious or important （3）According to the report by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, ________.A. women put on weight only because they want to suit their other halfB. when men are faced with emotional stress, they will change their dietary habitsC. eating together in the evening is a good way to communicate for couplesD. it is wrong to change your dietary habits to suit your partner（4）From the passage, we can infer that ________.A. women should pay more attention to their partner's influence on themB. more men will play roles of shopper and cook in most householdsC. couples will not change their dietary habits and lifestyle to please their partnerD. long-term health of men benefits when they move in with a female partner（5）What would be the best title for the passage?A.

高三英语环保策略阅读理解30题

高三英语环保策略阅读理解30题1<背景文章>Environmental issues are becoming increasingly prominent in today's world. Climate change is one of the most serious challenges we face. The Earth's temperature is rising, leading to melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather events. Pollution is also a major concern. Air pollution from factories, vehicles, and power plants can cause respiratory problems and other health issues. Water pollution from industrial waste and sewage can harm aquatic life and make water sources unsafe for drinking.Deforestation is another significant environmental problem. Large areas of forests are being cleared for agriculture, logging, and urban development. This not only reduces the habitat for many species but also contributes to climate change by releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.In addition to these issues, waste disposal is a growing problem. The amount of waste we produce is increasing, and much of it ends up in landfills or pollutes the environment. We need to find more sustainable ways to manage our waste and reduce our consumption.To address these environmental problems, we need to take action at both individual and collective levels. We can reduce our carbon footprintby using public transportation, conserving energy, and eating less meat. We can also support sustainable businesses and advocate for policies that protect the environment.1. What is one of the most serious challenges we face?A. Pollution.B. Deforestation.C. Waste disposal.D. Climate change.答案：D。

高二年级英语环境保护行动阅读理解25题

高二年级英语环境保护行动阅读理解25题1<背景文章>Global warming is one of the most pressing environmental issues that our planet is facing today. It has far - reaching consequences on various aspects of the environment.Sea - level rise is a significant impact of global warming. As the Earth's temperature increases, glaciers and ice sheets in polar regions are melting at an alarming rate. The melted ice then flows into the oceans, causing the sea level to rise. This poses a serious threat to low - lying islands and coastal areas. Many small island nations are at risk of being completely submerged in the near future. For example, the Maldives, a beautiful island country, is already experiencing the encroachment of seawater on its land.Climate anomalies are also becoming more frequent due to global warming. Extreme weather events such as heatwaves, droughts, floods, and hurricanes are occurring more often and with greater intensity. Heatwaves can cause heat - related illnesses and even deaths among humans and animals. Droughts can lead to water shortages, which in turn affect agriculture and food security. Floods can destroy homes, infrastructure, and disrupt lives of millions of people. Hurricanes can cause massivedestruction along the coastlines.Another consequence of global warming is the reduction in biodiversity. Many species are unable to adapt to the rapid changes in temperature and climate. Some plants may not be able to flower or bear fruits at the right time due to the altered seasons. Animals that rely on specific habitats, such as polar bears that depend on sea ice, are facing a decline in their population. As the habitats change or disappear, many species are pushed towards extinction. This not only means the loss of these beautiful and unique creatures but also disrupts the delicate balance of the entire ecosystem.1. <问题1>What is one of the main causes of sea - level rise according to the passage?A. More rainfall flowing into the sea.B. The melting of glaciers and ice sheets.C. The increase in the number of underwater volcanoes.D. The construction of large - scale coastal projects.答案：B。

第三节题组训练 3 环境保护A(2017·河西区二模)Air pollution is getting more and more serious in many places around the world.The fact that public parks in cities become crowded proves that people long to breathe in green，open spaces.And，in these surroundings，they are generally both peaceful and peaceable.It is rare to see people being at odds or even fighting in a garden.It seems to be proved that if human beings can freely breathe and share air，there is no primary reason for them to struggle with one another.But do we only sense what life could be when we enjoy green spaces?The plant world silently shows us what a reflection of life truthfully is.It also helps us to a new beginning，urging us to care for our breath.We must，in turn，care for it，opposing any sort of pollution that destroys both our world and that of plants.The interdependence to which we must pay the closest attention is what exists between ourselves and the plant world.Often described as “the lungs of the planet”，the woods that cover the earth offer us the gift of breathable air by releasing oxygen.But their capacity to renew the air polluted by industry has long reached its limit.If we continue to pollute the air by filling it with chemicals and destroy the ability of plants to restore it we will soon pull our world into an unavoidable disaster.Humans must learn to share life，both with each other and with plants.This task can be carried out only when each takes it upon her- or himself and only when all work together.The lesson taught by plants is that human life can only exist with nature.We must come to view the air，the plants and ourselves as the contributors to the protection of life and growth，rather than productive objects we can use and throw away freely.Perhaps then we would finally begin to live，rather than merely survive.语篇解读本文主要讲了为了保护地球，我们应共同努力，和谐地与植物世界共享生活。

B(2017·南开区二模)The temperature is sharply rising with each passing day.People，including many experts，find it difficult to slow down the process.However，leaving coal and major fossil fuels in the ground could help to limit climate change in the future，according to a new study.That is to say，a third of oil reserves on the earth，half of gas reserves and over 80 percent of current coal reserves should not be used before the year 2050.If we are to prevent global temperatures from rising above 2 degrees Celsius in the near future，we ought to carry out some measures to severely control the emissions from factories，vehicles and even our daily-life cooking.However，it is a goal that seems to be impossible in our eyes.“Policy makers in different countries must realize that their attempt to completely use the fossil fuels within their countries is wholly incompatible(矛盾的) with their hope to reach the 2-degree goal，” Dr Christophe McGlade at University College London’s Energy Institute said in a statement.“If they go ahead with developing their own resources，” he added，“they must be asked which reserves elsewhere should remain unburned in order for the carbon budget not to go beyond the limit.”It’s not surprising to see how tapping into these unused reserves would be attractive.Energy-related industry is a big business all over the world.There are many coal reserves in China，Russia and the United States，along with over 260 thousand million barrels of oil reserves in the Middle East.Not to mention that oil is currently being developed in the panies spent over 670 billion last year in the expansion of fossil fuels，but according to the new model used in this latest study，developers may need to rethink their plans to develop these underground resources so as to make some contributions to control the world temperature from rising high in the future.“We’ve now got practical figures of the quantities a nd locations of fossil fuels that should remain unused in trying to keep within the 2-degree temperature limit，”added McGlade.World leaders and policy makers should take the advice to heart，because a recent IPCC report warned that if immediate and great actions are not taken soon，climate change will cause irreversible(不可逆转的) impacts on environments worldwide，leaving the world an unsafe place for us to live in.6．According to Paragraph 1，our goal is to .A．discover more fossil fuels for the future generationB．slow down the climate changeC．refuse to use reserves on the earthD．keep the temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius答案 D解析细节理解题。
