(2017·山东省齐鲁名校高三年级联合测试)
When I was growing up in the suburbs of New York,our first local Earth Day was organized around a drive to a town field where families were urged to dump items from their basements for recycling rather than tossing them in the trash.It was an eyeopening concept for a kid in 1970.
But as an environmental reporter,I have come to dread (非常害怕) the large amount of deals and promotions that arrive via email or in my office or home mailbox on Earth Day.Like Valentine’s Day,Earth Day has become a huge marketing opportunity—a paradoxical (矛盾的) way to promote consumption and sell stuff.
In fact,Earth Day is such a good sales hook that some shops,like Target,have expanded Earth Day into Earth Month.
There isn’t time to give you a full rundown of the Earth Day shopping opportunities I was alerted to this past week.They included deals on buying bottled water and earthfriendly diaper wipes.
My award for the silliest promotion:a plan to gift 25 of the most environmentally
conscious
stars
unique,useful
and fabulous “green” products and services,including skin care products,cat litter,cheesecake and artwork.My guess is most of the stuff will end up in celebrities’ garbage.
Is buying and selling a good way to celebrate and protect the environment?I would argue that Earth Day might be an occasion to consider giving up purchases or habits that are environmentally questionable or that we could happily do without.How about not buying bottled water,but refilling a water bottle?How about not buying foods—even “organic” foods—that are packed in nonrecyclable plastic?
Don’t get me wrong.Bridgestone is celebrating Earth Day by promising to repurpose a spent tire for every tire that it sells.Verizon will plant a tree for each cellphone you trade in.Some coffee stores will even refill reusable mugs at no charge.Target is giving out free reusable carrier bags without requiring a purchase.
But few retailers are taking the next step—charging a fee at the cash register for disposable plastic bags,a common practice in Europe—to motivate customers to use those new reusable carriers.
Earth Day is transient (短暂的).If you only showed love on Valentine’s Day,would that really mean anything at all?
1.The author’s first local Earth Day was celebrated by________.
A.driving to a town field for fun
B.dumping unused items for recycling
C.looking for good ideas for reuse
D.clearing items from their basement
2.Why do some shops expand Earth Day into Earth Month?
A.Because too many activities are organized for the day.
B.Because they intend to make more sales strategies.
C.Because they want to have more selling opportunities.
D.Because they have to deal with too much waste.
3.What’s the author’s attitude towards the deals and promotions on Earth Day?
A.Objective.B.Optimistic.
C.Supportive.D.Critical.
4.According to the author,it’s environmentally friendly to________.
A.buy packed organic foods
B.offer stars green products
C.refill water bottles
D.ask for disposable plastic bags
5.It could be inferred from the text that Bridgestone and Verizon________.
A.are likely to misunderstand the author
B.have a good way to celebrate Earth Day
C.are devoted to making money on Earth Day
D.make wrong promotion plans on Earth Day
Ⅲ.阅读表达
(2017·山东省济南市高考模拟考试)
[1]When I travel on business,I like to talk to the taxi drivers who take me from the airport to my hotel,or to a convention center,or to a restaurant.Taxi drivers are often immigrants with interesting personal histories and unusual cultural backgrounds.I ask them how long they’ve been in America,how they chose which city to live in,and what they like best about where they live.Of course,I also ask them for advice on good local restaurants and any special attractions they’d recommend to a visitor.I’ve had some great experiences on my travels,thanks to the advice of taxi drivers!
[2]On one trip about ten years ago,I was making
conversation with the taxi
driver,asking him
my
usual
questions about how he came to live where he lived.Then I asked him a question:“If you could live anywhere in the world and if money was no object,where would you live?”
[3]Without hesitating even for a second,he replied,“I
live in my heart.So it really doesn’t matter where my body lives.If I am happy inside,then I live in paradise (天堂),no matter where my residence is.”
[4]I felt a little foolish for my question.Of course he was right—happiness was an inside job.He had reminded me of
something I already knew,but had forgotten.If you can’t find
happiness inside yourself,you’ll never find it______________,no matter
where you move.Wherever you go,there you are.You take
yourself with you.
[5]I am grateful for the wisdom of that taxi driver.And
I’m grateful for all the wisdom others have shared with me about
how to be happy.

课时作业(三十)
Ⅰ.单项填空
1.解析: 考查交际用语。此处是对“That’s very kind of you”的回答,因此选It’s my pleasure,表示“不客气,很荣幸”。With pleasure愿意效劳;Go ahead可以,干吧;Not really不,不是。
答案: A
2.解析: 考查动词辨析。句意为:无论你有多少钱,它都比不上一个健康的身体。compare比较,对比;suit适合;defeat打败,战胜。match与……相匹敌,和……不相上下,符合句意。
答案: D
3.解析: 考查非谓语动词。句意为:——艾米,请告诉坐在那里排队等着的人们,五分钟后到我的办公室。——好的,先生。分析句子结构可知,“seated and________for their turns”是定语,修饰the people,the people与wait是逻辑上的主谓关系,故选waiting。
答案: B
4.解析: 考查时态。句意为:——不要往地上扔垃圾。——哦,很抱歉。我没有看到那边的垃圾箱。此处表示答话者刚才没有看到垃圾箱,故用一般过去时。
答案: A
5.解析: 考查状语从句。句意为:既然在家里通过计算机能做所有的事情,为什么非要浪费时间去银行呢?那样真的很方便。when此处表示“既然”,用于引出使某人的行为看似出人意料的情景,引导原因状语从句。
答案: A
6.解析: 考查定语从句。分析题干可知,本句是一个定语从句,the US是先行词,逗号后为非限制性定语从句,且关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,因此应用where作为引导词。
答案: C
7.解析: 句意为:有许多英语教学方法,但它们不一定都对中国学生同样有效。A项应说成a variety of;B项意为“准确的,精确的”;C项意为“原始的”;D项意为“不同的,多种多样的”。由句意可知选D。
答案: D
8.解析: build up one’s confidence树立某人的信心。bring up抚养;take up从事;break up打碎,分裂,解体。
答案: C
9.解析: 句意为:上周一我应邀给新生进行了一次测试来评估一下他们的英语水平。此处用动词不定式作后置定语,表示目的。
答案: C
10.解析: 考查形容词辨析。句意为:该研究缺乏可靠的证据,因此它的结论值得怀疑。由句意可知,solid符合语境,意为“可靠的,可信赖的”。fierce激烈的,severe严重的,potential潜在的,均不符合句意。
答案: A
11.解析: 句意为:现在食品安全是一个大的问题,没有人能够保证所有的食物对我们来说都是安全的,但是正规公司生产的食物相对来说要好一些。strictly严格地;absolutely完全地;relatively相对地;exactly正好地。

12.解析: 句意为:他对音乐很有天赋,在30岁的时候被任命为上海交响乐团的指挥。assign布置;name命名;honor给……荣誉。
答案: B
13.解析: 句意为:——周五前你能完成报告吗?——我不能保证什么,但是我会尽最大努力的。guarantee保证,担保;transform改变,转换;prepare准备;say说。此处表达不能向对方保证会做到某事,故选A项。
答案: A
14.解析: 句意为:在植物园,我们会发现从大树到小花等各种各样的植物。a variety of各种的;a species of一种;B项变成group才正确;an amount of修饰不可数名词。
答案: D
15.解析: 考查非谓语动词。句意为:看到盲人过马路时,汽车驾驶员不得不马上踩刹车。motorists与see之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,并且see与step的动作几乎同时发生,故用Seeing。
答案: A
Ⅱ.阅读理解
