　　【2015高考复习】阅读理解 Two things I really believe in—saving money and saving the planet，and it's even better when I can do something that accomplishes both at the same time.

　　Rainwater harvesting is just such a thing.In the near future，rainwater harvesting will be as common as twelve­year­old girls carrying cell phones.

　　Many countries already rely heavily on rainwater.Bermuda，for example，every building on the small island collects the rainwater from its roof and stores it for later use.However，America_is_just_slightly_behind_the_curve.

　　There are many ways you can begin harvesting rainwater and most of them are easy and inexpensive.Use rain barrels to collect the water that would run off of your roof.You'd be surprised how fast a fifty­gallon barrel will fill with free，usable water.New building construction offers some good ways to gather rainwater，and the cost of installation is usually offset by reduced usage very quickly.Roof drains can be piped into underground tanks，where a pump can draw it up as needed.

　　The rainwater can even be treated to make it drinkable...but wait—there's more！If that rainwater were not collected，but allowed to run over your lawn，into the street and eventually to a stormwater treatment facility，it would pick up all sorts of pollutants on its journey—fertilizers and pesticides from the grass，motor oil，antifreeze and such from the roads，and who knows what else.

　　Depending on where you live，the stormwater may be piped to a treatment plant or it may run in natural channels to allow nature to remove the pollutants.Either way，the treatment of stormwater is costly.If you reduce the amount of stormwater runoff from your home or office，you reduce the need for treatment.

　　Water is rapidly becoming one of our most precious resources and it is not as abundant as you may think.In the year 2000，the United States used approximately 326 billion gallons of fresh water per day.

　　20．What does the underlined sentence “America is just slightly behind the curve” mean?

　　A．Americans don't show interest in harvesting rainwater.

　　B．There is no need for Americans to harvest rainwater.

　　C．Harvesting rainwater in America is not that common.

　　D．Americans can't collect rainwater from the roof correctly.

　　答案　C　[句意理解题。从第三段“Many countries already rely heavily on rainwater.Bermuda，for example...However...”可知，美国的情况与Bermuda相反，在利用雨水这方面还跟不上潮流。故选C项。]

　　21．According to the passage，harvesting rainwater can ________.

　　A．benefit you economically and ecologically

　　B．benefit your health and the surroundings around

　　C．promote the development of economy and peace

　　D．make us live a better life in the near future

　　答案　A　[细节理解题。从第一段“Two things I really believe in—saving money and saving the planet”可知， 收集雨水，无论从经济上还是环保方面都是非常有益的。故选A。]

　　22．What is the fourth paragraph mainly concerned with?

　　A．How to take advantage of the rainwater.

　　B．How to fix the equipment under the ground.

　　C．How to reduce the cost of new equipment.

　　D．How to harvest rainwater effectively.

　　答案　D　[主旨大意题。从第四段“There are many ways you can begin harvesting rainwater and most of them are easy and inexpensive”可知，该段主要讲的是如何收集雨水，故选D。]

　　23．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

　　A．it is not easy to make rainwater drinkable

　　B．the author calls on people to harvest rainwater

　　C．the stormwater cannot be made drinkable

　　D．people can treat the stormwater very easily

　　What is the most popular food in western countries? If you are not sure, statistics might give you the answer.

　　Every year，some 20 million people walk into restaurants and buy 2 billion sandwiches. Americans alone eat more than 1 billion sandwiches annually. If you lined up all the sandwiches Westerners eat in a year, they would go around the world 13 times!

　　When John Montagu made the very first sandwich in England in 1762, he couldn't have imagined that it would still be very popular almost 250 years later. There

　　is

　　a

　　campaign

　　starting this month in the

　　US to find the healthiest

　　and best tasting sandwich

　　in the country.

　　Sandwiches are commonly carried to school or work in lunch boxes or brown paper bags to be eaten

　　for lunch. They are also taken on picnics and hiking

　　trips. Their long­lasting popularity lies in their convenience and fast preparation time.

　　You can put everything you want inside a sandwich. They are easy to clean up after, nutritious and come in hundreds of different kinds.

　　Well­known American chef Dave Lieberman adds

　　another reason.“I think people like to touch their food,

　　kids especially. It's just a natural instinct. You don't

　　have to use a knife and fork to eat a sandwich，” he

　　said.

　　Sandwiches can be hot or cold with almost any

　　kind of filling. One of the most popular kinds is the

　　BLT—bacon，lettuce and tomato. Although it is a simple food, it can still be creative. Sandwiches can be

　　served open­faced, with sushi inside or grilled with delicious fillings.

　　【语篇解读】 西方国家最普遍的食物是什么？当约翰在英格兰做出第一份三明治时，他不会想到在几乎250年后的今天三明治仍然大受欢迎。三明治里面的馅各种各样，冷热均可食用。虽然三明治做法简单，但仍然具有创新性。三明治可以做成露馅的单片吃，可以在里面放入寿司，还可以加入美味馅烤着吃。

　　【2015高考复习】阅读理解 The hottest“green”toy in Germany isn't made of organic or recycled materials.This one has a solar panel and only runs if kids remember to insert bright red “energy stones”that power the space station.Germany，a pioneer in many renewable energy initiatives，is also at the forefront of creating environment­friendly toys aimed at making kids think about where energy comes from and how much of it they can use，raising awareness through play.A number of high­tech green toys are on display at this year's Nuremberg toy fair，which runs through Sunday.

　　Among them，there are hydroelectric­powered(水电动力的)toy cars，and doll houses with wind turbines and rainwater catchers.The bright green “Future Planet”space station features an inner atrium(中庭)with a fan that is powered by a functioning solar cell.Its aim is to get kids to use their imagination about how energy will be created in the future.

　　Makers and retailers believe such toys will play an increasingly important role in their future—and that of our kids.“Energy is the question of the future and we are definitely thinking about this as we move ahead，”said Judith Schweinitz，a spokeswoman for Playmobil，maker of the solar panel­fitted space station.“It is increasingly being brought into our play concept.”Green toys—which range from those made of sustainable materials to ones like the space station that just raise environmental awareness—make up only a sliver of the $ 84 billion international toy market，but their share is growing，studies indicate.Environmental research firm Earthsense，based in Syracuse，New York，predicts that green toys will account for about $ 1 billion，or 5 percent of U．S.toy sales in the next five years.Parents are smart and they want information about what's in the product.That's what's really driving the market.

　　【语篇解读】 本文向我们介绍了德国研制的“环保”玩具的最新情况，该研究的目的是提高儿童节能环保的意识。

　　19．Which of the following BEST describes the opinion of Earthsense about green

　　toys?

　　A． Doubtful.
