  1.【2015·湖北卷】B

  What Theresa Loe is doing proves that a large farm isn’t prerequisite for a modern grow-your-own lifestyle. On a mere 1/10 of an acre in Los Angeles, Loe and her family grow, can(装罐)and preserve much of the food they consume.

   Loe is a master food preserver, gardener and canning expert. She also operates a website, where she shares her tips and recipes, with the goal of demonstrating that every has the ability to control what’s on their plate.

   Loe initially went to school to become an engineer, but she quickly learned that her enthusiasm was mainly about growing and preparing her own food. “I got into cooking my own food and started growing my own herbs (香草) and foods for that fresh flavor,”she said. Engineer by day, Loe learned cooking at night school. She ultimately purchased a small piece of land with her husband and began growing their own foods.

  “I teach people how to live farm-fresh without a farm,” Loe said. Through her website Loe emphasizes that “anybody can do this anywhere.” Got an apartment with a balcony (阳台)? Plant some herbs. A window? Perfect spot for growing. Start with herbs, she recommends, because “they’re very forgiving.” Just a little of the herbs “can take your regular cooking to a whole new level,” she added. “I think it’s a great place to start.” “Then? Try growing something from a seed, she said, like a tomato or some tea.”

  Canning is a natural extension of the planting she does. With every planted food. Loe noted, there’s a moment when it’s bursting with its absolute peak flavor. “I try and keep it in a time capsule in a canning jar,” Loe said. “Canning for me is about knowing what’s in your food, knowing where it comes from.”

  In addition to being more in touch with the food she’s eating, another joy comes from passing this knowledge and this desire for good food to her children: “Influencing them and telling them your opinion on not only being careful what we eat but understanding the bigger picture,” she said, “that if we don’t take care of the earth, no will.”

  55.The underlined word 損rerequisite?(Pare. 1) is closest in meaning to 揰_____? her

  D. challenge

  56.Why does Loe suggest starting with herbs?

  57.According to Loe, what is the benefit of canning her planted foods?

  A. It can preserve their best flavor

  B. It can promote her online sales

  C. It can better her cooking skills

  D. It can improve their nutrition

  58.What is the搕he bigger picture?(Para. 6) that Loe wishes her children to understand?s

  A. The knowledge about good food

  B. The way to live a grow-our-own life

  C. The joy of getting in touch with foods 

  D. The responsibility to protect our earth

  【考点定位】记叙文阅读

  【名师点睛】人不离事,事不离人。写人的文章事情是重点记事的文章人物是关键。注意把握人物的情绪起伏,要进入“角色”客观做题。顺应当前社会生活潮流,介绍了园艺和食品保存大师Theresa Loe如何利用阳台、小院在喧嚣繁忙的大都市里过田园生活。

  In the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.

  Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver. A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (含量) of gold and other precious metals was higher in

  So-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.

  Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed, the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries, in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.

  Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material, up to 100 times more, than the material contained in the finished products. Consider again the cell-phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to make the box and packaging(包装) it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.

  The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that “the production, distribution, and use of products — as well as management of the resulting waste ?all result in greenhouse gas release.e” Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the start ?for instance, buying reusable products and recycling.s

  In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive (动机) for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products, would they reduce the packaging in the first place?

  Governments’ incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (气泡垫) that encased your television?

  From the governments’ point of view, a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.

  58.By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _________ .

  A. the weight of e-goods is rather small

  B. E-waste deserves to be made good use of

  C. natural minerals contain more precious metals

  D. the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste

  59.The responsibility of e-waste treatment should be extended _________ .

  A. from producers to governments

  B. from governments to producers

  C. from individuals to distributors

  D. from distributors to governments

  60. What does the passage mainly talk about?

  A. The increase in e-waste.

  B. The creation of e-waste.

  C. The seriousness of e-waste.

  D. The management of e-waste.

  【解析】

  59.B细节理解题。文章第六、七、八三段围绕“生产者责任延伸”展开的,最后一段做了总结, 根据“a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers ”可知B项正确,是对该句的同义压缩。故选B项。

  3.【2015·北京卷】D

  Technological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.

  An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college. Surveys (调查) on this topic suggests that parents today continue to be “very” or “somewhat” overly-protective even after their children move into college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago. This is usually interpreted as a sign that today’s parents are trying to manage their children’s lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.

  However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their “adult” children.

  In the context (背景) of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents’ involvement with their grown children. If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasn’t present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parents - today’s grandparents - would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.

  Furthermore, studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life, today and in the past.

  Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.

  67. The surveys inform us of ______.

  A. the development of technology

  B. the changes of adult children’s behavior

  C. the parents’ over-protection of their college children

  D. the means and expenses of students’ communication

  68. The writer believes that ______.

  A. parents today are more protective than those in the past

  B. the disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantages

  C. technology explains greater parental involvement with their children

  D. parents’ changed attitudes lead to college children’s delayed independence

  69. What is the best title for the passage?

  A. Technology or Attitude

  B. Dependence or Independence

  C. Family Influence or Social Changes

  D. College Management or Communication Advancement

  70. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?

  【解析】

  68.C 观点态度题。第三段作者提出调查的结果并不能理解为现在的家长对孩子不放手,接下来的两段作者论述了出现这种结果的真正原因是科技的发展使得交流手段更丰富,成本更低廉。见第四段最后一句“Many studies show that older parents—today’s grandparents—would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier。最后一段更是再次强调了这种观点。故选C。

  69.A主旨大意题。由第一段第二句话得出。这种科技的改变容易被误认为态度的改变。第2-5段讨论到底是科技还是态度的改变。第6段再次明确表示是科技的改变。故选A。

  70.B 文章结构题。文章第一段是introduction,第二段是第一个论点,指出父母在子女生活中参与度提高的现象。第三段是第二个论点(关键词However),指出通过调查并不能推断出父母未能对子女放手,分论点一是科技的进步导致父母对子女生活更多的参与,分论点二(关键词Furthermore)是子女经济不独立导致父母对子女生活的过多参与。最后一段总结。故选B。

  【考点定位】议论文类阅读

  【名师点睛】 要想读懂议论文、理解作者的写作意图,关键在于是否能够把握议论文的三要素。首先,论点是作者对所论述事件的基本看法和立场,找准论点有助于把握文章的整体方向和理解文章主题的深层内涵;理清论据材料的内容能够帮助读者更深层次地理解论点的含义;论据是作者组织、运用论据的手法。

  Freedom and Responsibility

  Freedom’s challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic. We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it.

  Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no freedom. There were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt and Babylon were both

  tyrannies, one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses.

  In Greece, in Athens (雅典), a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses. And Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert.The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens, not because it was forced on him from the outside, but because the city was his pride and his safety. The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.

  But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers. It cannot be discovered once for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will go. Constant watch is its price. Athens changed. It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance, a spiritual change which affected the whole state. It had been the Athenian’ s pride and joy to give to their city. That they could get material benefits from her never entered their minds. There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid her citizens for doing her work. Now instead of men giving to the state, the state was to give to them. What the people wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them; and with this as the primary object, ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing. Athens was more and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to share.

  Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility. There could be only one result. If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free. Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom. It is to be had on no other terms. Athens, the Athens of Ancient Greece, refused responsibility; she reached the end of freedom and was never to have it again.

  But, 搕he excellent becomes the permanentm”, Aristotle said. Athens lost freedom forever, but freedom was not lost forever for the world. A great American, James Madison, referred to: “The capacity (能力) of mankind for self-government.” No doubt he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek. Athens was not in the farthest background of his mind, but once man has a great and good idea, it is never completely lost. The Digital Age cannot destroy it. Somehow in this or that man’s thought such an idea lives though unconsidered by the world of action. One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action only sure that it will do so sometime.

  65. What does the underlined word 搕yranniesd” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

  A. Countries where their people need help.

  B. Powerful states with higher civilization.

  C. Splendid empires where people enjoy freedom.

  D. Governments ruled with absolute power.

  66.People believing in freedom are those who________ .

  A. regard their life as their own business

  B. seek gains as their primary object

  C. behave within the laws and value systems

  D. treat others with kindness and pity

  67.What change in attitude took place in Athens?

  A. The Athenians refused to take their responsibility.

  B. The Athenians no longer took pride in the city.

  C. The Athenians benefited spiritually from the government.

  D. The Athenians looked on the government as a business.

  68.What does the sentence 揟here could be only one result.t” in Paragraph 5 mean?

  A. Athens would continue to be free.

  B. Athens would cease to have freedom.

  C. Freedom would come from responsibility.

  D. Freedom would stop Athens from self-dependence.

  69.Why does the author refer to Aristotle and Madison?

  A. The author is hopeful about freedom.

  B. The author is cautious about self-government.

  C. The author is skeptical of Greek civilization.

  D. The author is proud of man’s capacity.

  70. What is the author’s understanding of freedom?

  A. Freedom can be more popular in the digital age.

  B. Freedom may come to an end in the digital age.

  C. Freedom should have priority over responsibility.

  D. Freedom needs to be guaranteed by responsibility.

  【解析】

  67.A细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知,雅典人后来态度发生了改变,因为他们开始认为政府应该为他们的劳动付费,给他们提供舒适的生活,而个人的自律和责任意识变得淡薄。故选A项。

  68. B句意理解题。根据第五段第三句“If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free”可知唯一的结果就是雅典人不再享有自由。故选B项。

  69.A细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“Athens lost freedom forever, but freedom was not lost forever for the world.”及“Athens was not in the farthest background of his mind, but once man has a great and good idea, it is never completely lost. The Digital Age cannot destroy it.”可知作者并没有因此而失去信心,相反对自由充满了希望。故选A项。

  The values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism(相对主义), are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.

  History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries, Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

  In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because“the general principles of taste are uniform(不变的) in human nature,”the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

  Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

  52. According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?

  A. It introduces different cultural values.

  B. It explains the history of artistic works.

  C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.

  D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.

  53. In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that _____

  .

  A. great works of art can go beyond national boundaries

  B. history gives art works special appeal to set them apart

  C. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts

  D. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures

  54. According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because_____

  .

  A .they are results of scientific study

  B. they establish some general principles of art

  C. they are created by the world’s greatest artists

  D. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature

  55. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?

  A. Are Artistic Values Universal?

  B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?

  C. Is Human Nature Uniform?

  D. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?

  【解析】

  54.D 推断题。根据第三段第一句话提到可知Davide曾辩论到风格的原则上是没有变化的,所以一些艺术是可能会永生的,故选D项。

  55.A 主题标题。本文主要从相对论的角度来说,艺术的价值只能反应当时的社会经济,但作者提出不同的观点,故选A项。

  6.Analysis of the composition of quicksand shows that there are four key ingredients—sand, obviously water, clay and salt. Together these materials form a structure resembling a house of cards, with large water-filled gaps between the sand particles, which are loosely glued in place by the clay. As long as it’s left alone, the structure remains stable. But as soon as it’s disturbed, by stepping on it, the clay changes from a jelly-like consistency to a runny liquid. The effect is the same as stirring a pot of yoghurt. Liquefying(溶解)the clay makes the quicksand about one million times runnier, and the whole house of cards comes tumbling down, with you inside it.

  Very quickly, the sand sinks to the bottom and the water floats to the top. This is where the salt comes in. When there’s enough salt present, as soon as the clay particles liquefy, electrical charges make them begin to stick together to form bigger particles and these also settle with the sand. Quicksand is a mixture which looks like solid, but behaves more like a liquid.

  Despite its murderous reputation, quicksand does not such people under and swallow them, although it can hold a person in firm grip. The human body is more buoyant(有浮力) in quicksand than in water, and sooner or later anyone trapped in it will float.

  Unlike most liquids, quicksand’s viscosity, or “runniness” can suddenly change if it comes under pressure, for example under a human foot. The surface gives way and the victim quickly sinks in up to the knees, surrounded by an area of dirty things that turns semi-solid around its victim. Escaping from the quicksand’s grip(紧握) requires a large amount of force. Without something solid to pull at, people often find they are stuck fast. Pulling at one leg simply makes the other one sink further.

  So how do you escape from quicksand’s control? Stay still and call for help. Staying still stops you sinking any further, until--with luck--help arrives on the scene. If no one appears and you need to draw yourself out, gently lie down on your back until your body is floating on the sand. Next, roll over onto your stomach and pull yourself forwards with your hands, so that you gradually “swim” towards firmer ground. It is a slow and dirty business, but it works.

  This technique has one barrier: it goes against a very powerful human nature. Faced with danger in the open, nine out of ten stay on their feet so that they can run away, in which case it can worsen the situation.

  63. Which ingredient of the quicksand make someone trapped in it stuck and stuck fast?

  A. Sand

  B. Clay

  C. Water

  D. Salt

  64. From the passage we can learn that ________

  A. as long as you are strong enough, you can pull yourself up from quicksand on your own

  B. clay glues sand particles loosely, which makes quicksand stable, unless it is disturbed

  C. because anyone trapped in quicksand will float, there is little possibility of him dying

  D. looking like solid ground, quicksand is actually liquid

  65.If someone is trapped in quicksand, what should he do?

  A. Remain calm and wave for help

  B. Stand in quicksand and get ready to run away as quickly as possible

  C. “Swimming” is one of the best choices he can use to escape

  D. Once in quicksand, lie down on his stomach immediately and swim slowly to safety

  66. What might be the best title of the passage?

  A. A human killer--quicksand

  B. How to escape from danger

  C. An awful experience in quicksand

  D. What to do if trapped in quicksand

  【答案】

  7.The word tolerance is widely used in liberal democracies. It indicates a positive meaning. Politicians urge us to be tolerant towards minorities. Educators teach us to be tolerant towards the other. The press is full of references to the need to display tolerance when faced with individuals or groups espousing a different view or holding a different religious belief. A tolerant society is an objective sought after by anyone who believes in the values of democracy. A tolerant individual is attributed with virtuous qualities.

  The question we must ask is whether we have been using the word tolerance fully aware of its meaning and whether we have applied it correctly to reflect what we really wish to convey?

  The word tolerance means to bear, or to bear with. If I tolerate something or someone, I basically say that I am ready to bear it or him. I can tolerate a bad smell or a noisy neighbour. The act of toleration forces me to desist from conveying my objection to the existence of a phenomenon, which I find difficult to bear. A bad smell or a noisy neighbour is considered by me to be an objectionable phenomenon. By tolerating either of them, I am not transforming the bad smell or the noisy neighbour into positive phenomena. Let's be honest: I don't have a different taste when it comes to bad smells. I simply dislike it and wish that it disappears. I don't respect the noisy neighbour. I would rather have him stop at once the noise he is making so I can live in peace. 

  To try to remove the bad smell or take reasonable action in order for the noisy neighbour to stop bothering me would most probably not be considered an intolerant act by most people.

  Now, let's try to apply the word tolerance in reference to a person who is law-abiding and holds a legally acceptable different view from my own. I may have a strong view, which is opposed to his. Quite frankly, I may decide to tolerate his view. By so doing, I would be attributing to it a negative characteristic. I would apply the same attitude to his view as to the bad smell or noisy neighbour. Thus, to try to take action in order to make his view disappear would be considered an intolerant act. To tolerate his view the way I would a bad smell or a noisy neighbour, could hardly be considered virtuous.

  The subject tolerating is by nature not equal to the object being tolerated. If I tolerate you, I essentially say that I am above you and am prepared, although unwillingly, to bear with your presence or with your practices or opinions. That may be true in the case of an individual who is ready to tolerate the other. However, this attitude by such an individual, though empirically true, is hardly a virtue. Certainly, the fact that an individual, in reality, may merely tolerate the other or his opinion does not justify a government or any official authority promoting tolerance as a virtue. One cannot tolerate an equal being. True equality involves respect, not toleration. To respect the other as a distinctive person is hardly to tolerate him. This is the true meaning of equality: diversity existing in a mutually-respectful socio-legal setting. 

  The danger with tolerance is that it can lead to the acceptance of individuals or groups bent on destroying the foundations of democratic systems. We have seen such cases with regard to political parties or destructive religious groups that have been treated in a liberal manner under the guise of tolerance. 

  A tolerant attitude involves the grant of a favour, not a right. The question we should ask ourselves is whether we would ever wish a parliament to make laws according to us, as individuals and as part of a collective entity or a permission to pursue certain actions interpreted as a favour rather than a right? Indeed, would we ever wish anyone to listen to our views and accept us the way we are simply because he is kind enough to tolerate us?

  67. The first two paragraphs are mainly intended to show that __________.

  A. tolerance is a symbol of liberal democracies

  B. democratic society always advocates tolerance

  C. people’s understanding of tolerance is one-sided

  D. tolerance can be applied to many situations

  68. The example of a bad smell and a noisy neighbour is raised to indicate that _________.

   A. the writer are fed up with them 

   B. most people find them hard to tolerate 

  C. the writer isn’t prejudiced against them 

  D. tolerating them isn’t a virtuous act

  69. Which of the following will the writer probably agree with?

  A. Too much tolerance will endanger the foundations of democratic systems.

   B. By tolerating people can transform something negative into the opposite.

   C. People tolerating others are likely to consider them as their equals.

  D. Being tolerant should be regarded as a right instead of a favour

  70. The best title for this passage should be “___________”.

  A. Tolerance and respect 

  B. What is to be tolerated?

  C. Is Tolerance a Virtue? 

  D. Should people be tolerant?

  【答案】

  67.C

  68.D

  69.A

  70.C

  【解析】

  68.D推理判断题。根据第三段第五句By tolerating either of them, I am not transforming the bad smell or the noisy neighbour into positive phenomena.忍耐它们两者之一,我没有在改变坏的气味或者喧闹的邻居成为积极的现象。故选D。

  【名师点睛】

  抓住文章主线和关键词语,归纳文章中心

  要注意不是所有的段落都有主题句,有时主题句暗含在句中。阅读这样的文章,就需要自己根据文章的细节来分析,概括出段落的主题,从而推导出文章的主旨。分析的方法是:先弄清该段落主要讲了哪几方面的内容,这些内容在逻辑上有什么联系,然后加以归纳形成主题。比如第70小题,主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句A tolerant individual is attributed with virtuous qualities. 一个宽容的人是因为有美德的品质;和倒数第三段中的However, this attitude by such an individual, though empirically true, is hardly a virtue. Certainly, the fact that an individual, in reality, may merely tolerate the other or his opinion does not justify a government or any official authority promoting tolerance as a virtue.然而,这种由这样的个体形成的态度,虽然经验真实,几乎不是一种美德。当然,事实上,忍受另一个人或他的观点的事实并不会把政府或任何官方权威机构的促进容忍当做一种美德。故选C。

  8.I love seeing Europeans line up in airports to applaud arriving refugees. But humanitarianism (人道主义) will not guide policy for long. We liberals need to argue from Europe’s self-interest: our continent has the need, the space and the ability to accept people.

  Many European countries are gradually turning into old people’s homes. Germany, Italy, Spain and others have some of the lowest birth rates in human history. It is predicted that about one-third of their populations will be aged over 65 in 2050. Germany needs to import at least 350,000 people a year to keep its workforce stable. Suddenly, young ambitious workers are pouring into the country as if called by a genie (精灵) with a lamp. No wonder Angela Merkel, German Chancellor, has been more welcoming than David Cameron, British Prime Minister. But all over Europe, carers for old people are already in need. Norway found oil under the seabed but it would have been better off if it had discovered 50,000 nurses there instead.

  Many rightwingers think we have reached our limits. This feeling is widespread. And it’s true that Western Europe is one of the most densely populated regions on earth. Indeed, density has long been Europe’s unique selling point: with so many people of different nations closely packed together, we have always traded goods and exchanged ideas fast. That’s why the scientific revolution of the 16th and 17th centuries happened here.

  But we have plenty more room. Many European cities aren’t dense enough. Now east Germany, north-western Spain and gorgeous mountain villages in Italy are losing people. Lots of cities have unused industrial land.

  Humans inhabit a slice of the EU’s territory. Only about 2.5 per cent of the EU’s land is used for housing, estimates the European Commission. By contrast, a whopping 43 per cent was used for agriculture in 2009, it says. That’s too much. We could turn more land into forest or into green landscapes where people can relax and play. Making that transition is feasible because we now use agricultural land inefficiently.

  Migrants often spend years locked up together in serious government-funded “migrant centers”. However, the way to learn a new country’s language, make friends and find work is to live with a local. This crisis has shown that lots of Europeans are willing to take refugees into their homes. After Iceland’s government said it could take only 50 Syrian refugees, many Icelanders came forward offering to take a far greater number into their own homes. People aren’t just sitting around waiting for government to do something.

  We need migrants, and we can accommodate them. If opponents just don’t like foreigners, they should say so instead of pretending to be hardheaded pragmatists (实用主义者).

  61. Why is Angela Merkel willing to take in refugees according to the passage?

  A. Germany has already stepped into aged society.

  B. Birth rates in Germany are the lowest in history.

  C. She is kind and shows sympathy for homeless people.

  D. Refugees can make up the shortage of labor in Germany.

  62. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

  A. No other region is more densely populated than Western Europe.

  B. Density has become Europe’s most outstanding characteristic.

  C. All European cities are not crowded together in great numbers.

  D. Large quantities of unused industrial land will turn into forest.

  63. It can be inferred that _______.

  A. nurses are more badly needed than petrol in Europe

  B. liberals always do something for the Europe’s benefit

  C. aging problem in Germany is the worst in Europe

  D. Europeans have already made intelligent use of the land

  64. What is the last paragraph but one mainly about?

  A. Migrants can privately be accommodated.

  B. Migrants had better not live in migrant centers.

  C. Everyone can live with migrants to help them fit in.

  D. Everyone has done their own part to help migrants.

  9.Mrs. Bertha Flowers was the aristocrat of Black Stamps. She had the grace of control to appear warm in the coldest weather, and on the Arkansas summer days it seemed she had a private breeze which swirled around, cooling her.

  One summer afternoon, she stopped at the store to buy supplies. Another Negro woman of her health and age would have been expected to carry the paper sacks home in one hand, but Momma said, “Sister Flowers, I’ll send Bailey up to your house with these things.”

  “Thank you, Mrs. Henderson. I’d prefer Marguerite, though.” My name sounded so beautiful when she said it. “I’ve been meaning to talk to her, anyway.” They gave each other age group looks.

  There was a little path beside the rocky road, and Mrs. Flowers walked in front swinging her arms and picking her way over the stones.

  Without turning her head, she spoke to me, “I hear you’re working very good school work, Marguerite, but that it’s all written. The teachers report that they have trouble getting you to talk in class.” We passed the triangular farm on our left and the path widened to allow us to walk together.

  “Now no one is going to make you talk—possibly no one can. But bear in mind, language is man’s way of communicating with his fellow man and it is language alone which separates him from the lower animals.” That was a totally new idea to me, and I would need time to think about it.

  “Your grandmother says you read a lot. Every chance you get. That’s good, but not good enough. Words mean more than what is set down on paper.”

  She said she was going to give me some books and that I not only must read them, I must read them aloud. She suggested that I try to make a sentence sound in as many different ways as possible.

  “I’ll accept no excuse if you return a book to me that has been badly handled.” My imagination boggled(退缩) at the punishment I would deserve if in fact I did abuse a book of Mrs. Flowers’.

  The odors in the house surprised me. The sweet scent of vanilla(香草) had met us as she opened the door.

  “Have a seat, Marguerite. You see, I had planned to invite you for cookies and lemonade so we could have this little chat.” She carried a plate covered with a tea towel.

  As I ate she began the first of what we later called “My lesson in living.” She said that I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and even more intelligent than college professors. She encouraged me to listen carefully to what country people called mother wit. That in those homely sayings was couched the collective wisdom of generations.

  When I finished the cookies she brought a thick, small book from the bookcase. I had read A Tale of Two Cities and found it up to my standards as a romantic novel. She opened the first page and I heard poetry for the first time in my life.

  “It was the best of times and worst of times...”

  Her voice slid in and curved down through and over the words. She was nearly singing. I wanted to look at the pages. Were they the same that I had read? Or were there notes, music, lined on the pages? Her sounds began cascading(瀑布般落下) gently. I knew that she was nearing the end of her reading.

  “How do you like that?”

  It occurred to me that she expected a response. The sweet vanilla flavor was still on my tongue and her reading was a magic to my ears. I had to speak.

  I said, “Yes, ma’am.” It was the least I could do, but it was the most also.

  “There’s one more thing. Take this book of poems and memorize one for me. Next time you pay me a visit, I want to recite.”

  I have often tried hard to search for the enchantment(着迷) I so easily found in those gifts. To be allowed, no, invited, into the private lives of strangers, to share their joys and fears, was a chance to exchange the Southern bitter wormwood(苦艾) for a cup of mead(蜂蜜酒) with Beowulf or a hot cup of tea and milk with Oliver Twist. When I said aloud, “It is a far, far better thing than anything I have ever done...” tears of love filled my eyes at my selflessness.

  I was liked, and what a difference it made, I was respected not as Mr Henderson’s grandchild or Bailey’s sister but for just being Marguerite Johnson.

  67. What does Mrs. Flowers mean by saying “Words mean more than what is set down on paper” (paragraph 7)?

  A. Besides reading, Marguerite should talk more.

  B. The content of books may have different meanings.

  C. How one speaks adds extra meaning to words.

  D. It is language that distinguishes humans from animals.

  68. Marguerite’s opinion of A Tale of Two Cities before and after Mrs. Flowers’ reading can be described as _______.

  A. poetic … musical

  B. satisfactory … informative

  C. romantic … dramatic

  D. common … extraordinary

  69. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

  A. Mrs. Flowers was born in a noble family.

  B. The meeting between Mrs. Flowers and Marguerite was probably an intentional arrangement.

  C. Marguerite hadn’t read poetry before her visit to Mrs. Flowers’ home.

  D. Mrs. Flowers would recite new poems on Marguerite’s later visits.

  70. Which can be the best title for the passage?

  69.B推理判断题。根据第二、三段One summer afternoon, she stopped at the store to buy supplies. Another Negro woman of her health and age would have been expected to carry the paper sacks home in one hand, but Momma said, “Sister Flowers, I’ll send Bailey up to your house with these things.”一个夏天的下午,她停在商店买用品。 换了另外一个同她身体情况和年龄相当的黑人妇女就会一只手把纸袋拎回家去,但奶奶却说,“弗劳尔斯大姐,让贝利帮你把东西送回家去。”

  “Thank you, Mrs. Henderson. I’d prefer Marguerite, though.” My name sounded so beautiful when she said it. “I’ve been meaning to talk to her, anyway.” They gave each other age group looks. “谢谢您,汉德森夫人。但我想让玛格丽特帮我送回去。” 她说我名字时,我的名字也变得动听起来。“反正我一直想跟她谈一谈。”她们互相对视了一下,其间的意思只有她们这些同龄人才明白。从这里可看出The meeting between Mrs. Flowers and Marguerite was probably an intentional arrangement. Mrs. Flowers and Marguerite两个之间的会面很可能是故意安排好的。故选B。

  10.Wind turbines are efficient sources of cheap energy but also a source of concern as their huge spinning blades (叶片) frequently kill birds and bats. A new type of wind generator developed in Spain offers a creative solution to that problem.

  In 2002, Spanish inventor David Yanez saw a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in the U.S., collapsing in strong wind. It was a vivid example of the powerful vibrations wind can create when it blows past a long pole, such as a car antenna or even a stick of bamboo. It gave him the idea for a new type of wind-energy generator.

  “The initial philosophy or spirit was to create a generator of dreams that had all the qualities one would want: It should be as cheap as possible, need as little maintenance as possible, the setup as simple as possible,” he said.

  Yanez and his friend Raoul Martin took the idea to an engineering firm, where they were told it would never work. Undiscouraged, they started experimenting on their own in a small wind tunnel they built.

  Good initial results were repeated by a larger working model called Vortex (涡旋) installed in a nearby field. “What we have is a mast (桅杆), which is the top piece and acts as a blade,” Yanez said. “It’s constructed from the same material as a conventional generator, and what it does is it oscillates (振荡), transmitting the oscillation to a conventional alternator, which by its own oscillation converts the wind’s energy into electric energy.”

  Yanez said the output of the 6-meter-tall generator, and even that of smaller models, was better than expected. The Vortex creates about 30 percent less energy than a comparable bladed wind turbine, but it is lighter and cheaper to build and maintain. It is made mostly of reinforced plastic and has very few moving parts. Also, it does not create noise and—even more important for many environmentalists—it does not present a threat to passing birds.

  The current prototype works at wind speeds ranging from 1.5 to 7 meters per second. The inventors say the next step is building a 12.5-meter tall bladeless generator with a 4-kilowatt capacity that could power small businesses or individual homes, or provide supplemental power to a main grid. The commercial version of the Vortex Bladeless generator should be ready for the market by 2017.

  62.The author mentions a short film about the Tacoma Narrows Bridge to show ________.

  A. what the initial philosophy or spirit was

  B. what inspired Yanez to create the generator

  C. how the bridge was destroyed in strong wind

  D. how wind creates powerful vibrations

  63.What do we know from the passage?

  A. The original idea was considered as practical in an engineering firm.

  B. Yanez and Martin’s initial tests by themselves proved to be successful.

  C. The material for constructing the mast is different from that of the past.

  D. The new generator is better at creating energy than a comparable bladed one.

  64. What would be the best title for the passage?

  A. Bladeless wind-power generator is friendly to birds.

  B. Wind turbines are efficient sources of cheap energy.

  C. A new generator will come onto the market by 2017.

  D. Yanez has made a generator for the benefit of people.

  11.【】In modern society loneliness can be seen as a social phenomenon and people can experience loneliness for many reasons. It is a very common,

  36

  normally temporary, consequence of a breakup, divorce, or loss of any important

  37

  relationship. In these cases, loneliness may

  38

  both from the loss of a specific person or from dropping

  39

  of social circles. The loss of a significant person in one's life will

  40

  lead to a grief response; in this situation, one might feel lonely, even while in the

  41

  of others. 

  There are many different ways used to treat loneliness. The first step that most doctors

  42

  to patients is treatment. Short term treatment typically

  43

  over a period of ten to twenty weeks. During treatment, emphasis is put

  44

  understanding the cause of the problem, thoroughly changing the

  45

  thoughts, feelings, and attitudes resulting from the problem, and exploring ways to help the patient feel

  46

  . Some doctors also recommend group treatment a means to connect with other sufferers and establish a support system. 

  47

  treatment is animal-assisted treatment. Studies and surveys indicate that the

  48

  of animal companions such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs can

  49

  feelings of loneliness or depression among some sufferers.

  50

  the companionship the animal itself provides there may also be increased opportunities for

  51

  with other pet owners. Results of a study also suggest that

  52

  improper socialcognition (认知) offers the best chance of reducing loneliness.

  53

  , loneliness can sometimes play an important role in the creative process. In some people, temporary or prolonged loneliness can lead to remarkable artistic and creative expression, for example, as was the

  54

  with poet Emily Dickinson, and many musicians. This is not to imply that loneliness itself ensures this creativity,

  55

  , it may have an influence on the subject matter of the artist and more likely be present in individuals engaged in creative activities.

  12.【苏北四市】One of the most significant actions of your life is that you support someone when you help him or her through a challenging time. However, the best

  36

  is that when you support others, you are also supporting yourself. When you

  37

  to give support to others, it is usually a

  38

  that you are also stopping giving support to yourself.

  I was hooked on a story about Donna, which clearly showed the

  39

  of support.

  Several months ago, Donna had just broken up with her boyfriend and had a difficult time accepting the

  40

  . She refused to be accompanied and stayed at home

  41

  , weeping all the time ,which certainly was not helping.

  Early one morning, Donna received a phone call with some

  42

  news: her best friend’s brother had been

  43

  in an accident. Donna had known this friend, Mary, and her brother

  44

  her entire life, and the news was devastating. Donna

  45

  her sadness and got the

  46

  soon and drove to Mary’s house to be with her.

  At the

  47

  and afterwards, she held Mary close while she cried

  48

  tears, sat by her side as the waves of grief

  49

  Mary, and slept next to her to make sure she did not wake up alone. During that time she hardly felt any

  50

  in her heart.

  Several weeks later, when life began to return to normal, Donna

  51

  that the level of support she had given Mary far overtook any support she had

  52

  herself during her dark time. She was able to use the support she had given her friend as a

  53

  for the support she needed.

  When you find yourself

  54

  to support others, see if there’s something within yourself that is not supporting.

  55

  , when you give complete support to others, it’ll mirror those places within you that require the same level of attention.

  13.【】The New York Times published an article recently that shows great regret for the "death of conversation".It suggests that while technology such as cell phones, e-mails , and Internet posting makes us feel more

  Users get final connectivity

  Actually ,

  text messages or writing micro-blogs allows us to

  .“The give and take of ideas in a conversation sharpens our minds,” she said.She also mentions that

  46

  ourselves in mobile technology reduces our chance of starting conversations with strangers and

  People.

  Turkle mentioned the popular

  48

  of “I share, therefore I am” among this generation. Liu Xuan, a young writer from Taiwan and psychology graduate from Harvard University, thinks it’s a mindset adopted by most young people. They are so busy creating or polishing their online persona (网络人格)that they forget how to live a (n)

  Before I turned 29, my parents moved to Queensland, where I arrived for a visit six months later.

  I

  36

  upon my mother with hugs, and for the first time in my life I said, “I love you, mom!” Then I gently

  37

  , expecting some kind of reciprocation. But it never came. Instead, she appeared

  38

  in horror.

  When I was back at work, I overheard a workmate on a call to her mother and she concluded it with “I love you, Mum.” As

  39

  as that. Why wasn’t it like that in mine? Something had to be done about this

  40

  situation once and for all.

  My

  41

  came the next Sunday during my weekly phone call to my mother. After we had shared our usual pleasantries and

  42

  , I took a deep breath and asked, “Do you love me, Mum?” After a short

  43

  , she replied, “I love you. Don’t be silly. You know we never said things like that in my family.”

  “Well, I want it to be said in ours. From now on I want to

  44

  our conversations with ‘I love you.’”

  In May 2000 my mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She was

  45

  to hospital, and I phoned every day to

  46

  her. One evening when I rang, a nurse answered the phone and regretfully informed me that my mother’s condition had rapidly worsened. She wasn’t expected to

  47

  it through the night.

  Knowing I couldn’t get a flight in time, I asked the nurse to put the phone next to my mother’s ear so I could talk to her. “She’s

  48

  conscious,” the nurse replied. “It’s unlikely she’ll hear you.” But I didn’t care. I wanted to do it

  49

  .

  50

  she’d placed the phone by my mother’s ear, I started

  51

  and telling Mum over and over again that I loved her. At first, all I could hear was “Hmmmm” — but then, like a miracle, with a deep

  52

  she said, “Love you … love you, darling.” It was the last thing she said before drifting into

  53

  .

  Although I was overwhelmed by her death, the surprising part was how well I

  54

  . Of course, losing a parent is extremely painful and I shed many tears, but receiving those lovely last words made it much more

  55

  . I had closure in the best possible way.

  15.【苏州中学】Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces. Each of us must choose which we want to ___36___ our future and our expectations. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or ___37___. It’s our decision: from which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in ___38___ or down in desperation?

  I believe in the upward look. I choose to ___39___ the positive and skip right over the negative.

  An optimistic attitude is not a luxury(奢侈品); it’s a(n) ___40___. The way you look at life will determine how you feel, how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people. ___41___, negative thoughts, attitudes, and expectations ___42___ themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy (预言). Pessimism creates a dark place where no one wants to live.

  Years ago, I drove into a service station to get some gas. It was a beautiful day, and I was feeling great. As I walked into the station to pay for the gas, the attendant said to me, “How do you feel?” That seemed like a(n) ___43___ question, but I felt fine and told him so. “You don’t look well,” he replied. This ___44___ me completely by surprise. A little ___45___ confidently, I told him that I had ___46___ felt better. Without hesitation, he continued to tell me how bad I looked and that my skin appeared yellow.

  By the time I left the service station, I was feeling a little ___47___. About a block away, I ___48___ over to the side of the road to look at my face in the mirror. How did I feel? Was I affected with jaundice(黄疸)? Was everything all right? By the time I got home, I was beginning to feel a little nauseous(恶心). Did I have a bad liver? Had I ___49___ some rare disease?

  On another beautiful day, when I went into that gas station, feeling ___50___ again, I figured out what had happened. The place had recently been painted a bright, distasteful ___51___, and the light reflecting ___52___ the walls made everyone inside look as though they had hepatitis(肝炎)! I wondered how many other folks had ___53___ the way I did. I had let one short conversation with a total ___54___ change my attitude for an entire day. He told me I looked sick, and before long, I was actually feeling sick. That single ___55___ observation had a great effect on the way I felt and acted.

  The only thing more powerful than negativism is a word of optimism and hope. When a whole culture adopts an upward look, incredible things can be accomplished.

  17.There is an old Spanish Proverb which states, “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week”.

  36___

  I’d say, too many. Our dreams should not, and cannot wait. We have to go for them now! Here’s why.

  1.

  37_____ 

  Nobody likes to talk about death, but the reality is – everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day, or the hour. Therefore, today is all we have. Don’t go to your grave with unfulfilled dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now.

  2. The world is waiting on your gift

  I know this may be hard to believe, but the world is waiting on YOU! Yes, YOU!

  ___ 38

  Sure, other people may be able to sing. But they’ll never be able to sing exactly like you. Sure other people can write, but they’ll never be able to write from the same perspective in which you write. Don’t deprive(使丧失) the world of your gift. It’s the oxygen that we need to survive. Thus, it is your responsibility to figure out exactly what your gift is, and use to better your life and the lives of those around you.

  3.

  39_____

  You can dream about writing the great American play that you want, but it’s never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually go to school to become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure.

  38G

  39F

  40C

  38. G 根据本段标题The world is waiting on your gift这个世界都在等待你的天赋。也就是说世界上的美国人都要发挥自己的天赋和才干。因为每个人的天赋和才干都是独一无二的。选项中只有G项“You were born into the world with a unique gift, which nobody on this earth can copy.”和该段的主题一致。

  39. F 根据本段第一句You can dream about writing the great American play that you want, but it’s never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper.可知如果你不开始写作,你就不可能成为伟大的作家。也就是说要采取行动,你的梦想才会实现。

  40. C 本段讲述的是我们要采取行动,梦想才会实现。前一句You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually go to school to become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure.你想找到癌症的治愈方法,但如果你不去学校学习有关的知识,这是不可能会发生的。还是在强调要采取行动才能实现目标。C项“In other words, dreams don’t work unless you do.如果你不去做,梦想是不会实现的。”符合本段的中心思想。

  18.This Way to Dreamland

  Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy._71__They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.

  But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __72__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?

  So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?

  First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.__73_ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.

  It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.__74__

  Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.____75_

  Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.

  A. Having interesting things to think about also helps.

  B. They stare off into space and wander by themselves.

  C. Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.

  D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.

  E. It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.

  F. Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.

  G. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re

  in the daydream zone.

  66

  degree people’s memories are affected.

  The research has caused a great deal of

  67

  (argue). Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills which prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.

  68

  , those who are

  69

  the research say that maybe the pills can change people’s memories and changing memories is very

  考查语态。本句的主语the pill与动词take之后构成被动关系,所以使用被动语态。句意:在可怕的经历发生以后药片要立刻被服用。

  63. possibly

  考查副词。在英语中副词通常做状语用来修饰形容词、副词或动词。本句中分词possibly修饰动词短语ease the effect of painful memories.句意:他们希望这种要求也许减少或可能抹去痛苦的记忆的影响。

  64.

  releasing

  考查固定搭配。动词短语stop sb/sth (from) doing sth阻止某人做某事,其中的介词from可以省略。句意:这种药物阻止时态释放让大脑记忆的物质。

  65. has suggested 考查时态。本句的时间状语是so far“到目前为止”,该时间状语通常和现在完成时连用。

  66.

  what

  考查宾语从句。本句中宾语从句to what degree people’s memories are affected一起作为形容词sure的宾语,句中what放在名词degree前面引导这个宾语从句。句意:他们不确定人们的记忆被影响到何种程度。

  69. against

  考查介词。根据前后句意可知本句叙述的是否定这一药物的人的观点,所以使用介词against表示“反对”。

  70. dangerous 考查形容词。因为记忆给了我们身份,正是因为我们有了记忆我们才知道自己是谁,现在这种药物改变了我们的记忆,那么对我们来说是很危险的。形容词dangerous与系动词is连用,构成系表结构。

  5. relaxing改为relaxed 考查形容词。过去分词转换的形容词relaxed通常修饰人或与人有关的事物,而relaxing通常修饰事物。句意:在深山中行走,他们感觉很放松。

  6. ever改为never 考查上下文串联。句意:但是现在一些远足者甚至开始探索以前人们没有去过的地方。

  7. because后接of 考查介词短语。连词because后面要接从句表示原因,而because of后面要接名词或者名词短语表示原因。本句中后面是名词短语a poor knowledge of hiking.,所以使用介词短语because of。

  8. life改为lives 考查名词单复数。当名词life表示生命的时候,是一个可数名词;当life表示生活的时候,是一个不可数名词。本句中life表示生命,前面有their修饰,说明使用复数形式。句意:一些远足者甚至失去了生命。

  9. so改为such 考查固定结构。可以使用such修饰有形容词修饰的名词,so的后面通常套接形容词或者副词。本文中such dangerous activities意为“如此危险的活动”。

  10. what改为that 考查同位语从句。本句中that引导同位语从句,在句中不充当任何成分,而what属于名词性从句的连接代词,在名词性从句要充当主语、宾语或表语等成分,不能省略。

  Dear Kate,

  Thank you for your email. Now I would like to tell you something about the extracurricular reading in our school. __________________________________________________________________________

  【答案】

  Dear Kate,

  Thank you for your email. Now I would like to tell you something about the extracurricular reading in our school. I’m sorry to say that the time and energy students devoted to reading are very limited. Besides, some students prefer to read cartoons, magazines and newspapers rather than classic reading materials.

  I think there are various reasons. First, most of the students haven’t realized the importance of reading, especially extracurricular reading. Second, quite a lot of students are burdened with too much homework. Last but not the least, some still haven’t formed a habit of reading. They would rather spend spare time on TV or on the Internet.

  However, reading has many benefits. Through reading we can learn more about the world. Reading can help us think better and make our life more colorful. So it is quite necessary for the students to take up reading and for the teachers to limit the amount of our homework so that we can have more time to read.

  Yours,

  Li Hua

  【答案】pollution is becoming more and more serious.

  Measures must be taken to balance city development and environmental protection. First of all, our government should make more strict laws to limit the use of private cars. What’s more, we are supposed to raise our awareness of environmental protection and push for the use of alternative energy, such as solar energy and wind energy. Only by applying sustainable development can we have a better world to live in.

  【解析】【亮点说明】’s more而且;be supposed to do 应该;Various forms of pollution, including air pollution, noise pollution, and water pollution, have increased with the fast development of Chinese cities, which has caused many problems and concerns.这个句子中which引导非限制性定语从句;Only by applying sustainable development can we have a better world to live in这个句子运用到only+状语+部分倒装;

  考点: 提纲类作文

  We suffer from pollution. “I can’t bear the smog in this city any more. It’s getting worse and worse.” said Wang Tao,a senior citizen in Beijing.

  “I’m often disturbed by loud noise during my work and sleep.” said a senior student from Shenzhen.

  Many of China’s waterways are largely unfit for direct human use because of industrialization.

  A 2015 report estimated that 1.6 million people in China die each year from heart, lung and stroke problems because of polluted air.

  New technologies have promoted the development of urbanization and economy. While economic growth may continue, the rewards of this growth may be opposed by the harm from the pollution unless environmental protection is increased.
