Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu’s nine little islands is more than five meters above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country’s drinking water supply, as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetables. Without urgent help, the country’s days are numbered. But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea. Venice, a historic city in Italy best known for its canals, has sunk about 24cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 2050cm by 2050. A century ago, St. Mark’s Square, the lowest point city, flooded about nine times a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times. While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, global warming causes Tuvalu’s rising sea level. The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century; scientists expect it rise by extra 13 degrees over the next 100 years. Warmer weather makes glaciers (冰川 ) melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about 1025 cm in the last 100 years. The main cause of global warming is human pollution. Through burning coal, oil and gas, people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer. Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes. The sea level could rise by one meter this century. Should this come true, the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will be flooded with “climate refugees” looking for somewhere to live. 1. We can infer from the second paragraph that________. A．Tuvalu is in danger of being swallowed up by the sea B．a(chǎn)ll Tuvalu’s islands are about five meters above the sea level C．drinking water in Tuvalu has been destroyed D．Tuvalu is often flooded by storms and waves 2．The author uses Tuvalu and Venice as examples in order to explain________. A．they are the first place sinking into the sea B．they are both sinking into the mud where they stand C．they will disappear in the future D．their trouble is caused by the global warming 3．Put the following events in the right order. a．Glaciers began to melt. b．People burn coal, oil and gas. c．The greenhouse effect is growing. d．The earth is getting warmer and warmer. e．The sea level is rising. f．More CO2 is produced. g．Many places are sinking into the sea. A．d, f, b，c, a, e, g B．b, f, c, d, e, a, g C．f, c, b, d, a, e，g D．b, f, c, d, a, e, g 4. What does “climate refugees” mean? A．People who are forced away from their homeland by climate. B．Climate changes. C．Rare animals. D．Climate effect. 5. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．Tuvalu’s nine little islands are less than five meters above the sea level. B．The average global temperature has risen by 13 centigrade degrees over the past 100 years. C．The warmer temperature causes the sea level to rise. D．There will be huge climate changes unless the warming is stopped. B BEIJING, China —Pollution in China remains very serious as the country’s rapid economic growth brings new environmental problems, a minister said Saturday. Vice Environment Minister Zhang Lijun said China has made progress on environmental protection, but admitted that its rapid economic growth over the past decade has had a negative effect on the environment. “Our rapid economic development has continuously brought our country new environmental problems, particularly dangerous chemicals, electronic waste and so on. These environmental pollutants (污染物) bring new problems and affect human health，” Zhang told a news conference. He said that emissions (排放) of traditional pollutants remain high and some areas have failed to meet government standards. The minister noted that rapid development in the next five years would increase the need for China to improve environmental protection and shift to a more sustainable (可持續(xù)的) model of economic development from its dependence on industries which consume huge quantities of energy. China is focusing on clean energy, including solar, wind and nuclear power, as one way to reduce its dependence on coal, which generates threequarters of its electricity and is also used for winter heating in northern cities. China also hopes the strategy will reduce its demand for oil and gas and increase economic growth and jobs. Zhang told reporters there was no plan to adjust China’s overall strategy for nuclear development but he said Beijing will learn lessons from Japan after a violent earthquake resulted in a radioactive leak (放射能泄露)． “Some lessons we learn from Japan will be considered in the making of China’s nuclear power plans，” he said. “But China will not change its determination and plan for developing nuclear power.” 6．According to the minister, the pollution problem requires China to________. A．slow its economic development B．a(chǎn)sk industries to meet government standards C．protect the environment first D．transform its economic development model 7.According to the text, which of the following is TRUE? A．Rapid economic growth helps to improve the environment. B．Dangerous chemicals are one of the traditional pollutants. C．Coal is used more in northern cities than in southern cities. D．The use of clean energy will help increase job opportunities. 8．The underlined word “generates” in Paragraph 6 means“________”． A．reduces B．transports C．produces D．needs 9. What do the last four paragraphs mainly talk about? A．Japan had a violent earthquake recently. B．China will learn to use nuclear power from Japan. C．Rapid economic growth caused some problems in China. D．China’s economic development will shift to depend on clean energy. 10. What is Zhang’s attitude towards what happened in Japan? A．He is astonished at it and feels pity for the Japanese people. B．He thinks Japan should do something to prevent it happening again. C．He thinks China will pay more attention to nuclear safety. D．He doesn’t think it will affect China’s nuclear power plans at all. 參考答案： Ⅰ.選詞填空 1. subscribe 2. quantities 3. tend 4. opposed 5. state 6. range 7. glanced 8. steady 9. random 10. consequences Ⅱ.單項填空 1. 解析：選C。句意：該委員會徹底反對對計劃的任何改動。be opposed 與to 連用，表示“反對……”。 2. 解析：選A?？疾椴欢ㄊ阶骱笾枚ㄕZ。take measures to do是常用結(jié)構(gòu)，其中不定式作后置定語。tend to do“傾向于做；易于做”。 3. 解析：選C?？疾榻樵~短語的用法。從句子的意思分析，這里應(yīng)該使用as a consequence，相當于as a result，表示摔斷腿的結(jié)果。in any case“無論如何”；after all“畢竟”；in this way“以這種方式”。 4. 解析：選C。句意：經(jīng)理把名單大體過目了一下，看看是否有人被遺漏了。glance“掃視；瞥一眼”。 5. 解析：選D。steady“平穩(wěn)的；持續(xù)的；穩(wěn)固的”。calm“平靜的；鎮(zhèn)靜的；沉著的”；fluent“流利的；流暢的”；frequent “頻繁的；常見的”。句意：這樣精細的工作需要眼好、手穩(wěn)。 6. 解析：選B。句意：當時他那么生氣以至于見了誰就朝誰喊。within range“在范圍之內(nèi)”。limit“限制”；range“范圍；界限”；edge“邊緣；邊沿”； centre“中心”。故B項正確。 7. 解析：選A。句意：“瑪麗的想法怎么樣？”“很好！但不是有很多人同意錢可以帶來幸福的想法。”subscribe to“同意；贊同”；take to“開始喜歡”；contribute to “有助于”；relate to“與……相關(guān)”。 8. 解析：選C。考查固定句式。“There is no＋名詞(doubt/possibility等)＋that從句”是固定句式，that引導(dǎo)的是同位語從句。句意：毫無疑問索菲會在這次競賽中贏得一等獎，因為她向來學(xué)習(xí)很用功。 9. 解析：選B。本題考查詞組辨析。keep up “保持；維持”；keep on“繼續(xù)”；keep ...from“阻止……做……”；keep ...out“把……擋在外面”。根據(jù)句意可知，只有B項合適，keep on working“繼續(xù)工作”。 10. 解析：選D。result from“由……造成”；result in “引起；導(dǎo)致”；lead to“導(dǎo)致”；lie in“在于”。由題意可知，D項符合要求。 Ⅲ.閱讀理解 1. 解析：選A。推理判斷題。由第二段全段內(nèi)容，尤其是“Without urgent help, the country’s days are numbered.”得知。 2. 解析：選D。推理判斷題。由第二段內(nèi)容，尤其是第三段最后一句“..., global warming causes Tuvalu’s rising sea level.”可知。 3. 解析：選D。事實細節(jié)題。首先根據(jù)四個選項中排第一位的b, d, f的先后順序得知，b應(yīng)排在第一，故排除A、C選項。再由a, e的先后順序判斷a早于e，故排除B項。 4. 解析：選A。猜測詞義題。由最后一段內(nèi)容，尤其是“l(fā)ooking for somewhere to live”得知。 5. 解析：選B。事實細節(jié)題。由第四段可知B項表述錯誤。 語篇解讀： 本文是一篇新聞報道。中國在經(jīng)濟高速發(fā)展的同時面臨嚴重的環(huán)境問題，因此政府將致力于轉(zhuǎn)變經(jīng)濟發(fā)展方式。 6. 解析：選D。細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第五段The minister noted that ... shift to a more sustainable model of economic development from its dependence on industries which consume huge quantities of energy.可知選D項。 7. 解析：選D。細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第六段China also hopes the strategy will reduce its demand for oil and gas and increase economic growth and jobs.可知D項正確。 8. 解析：選C。詞義猜測題。根據(jù)本詞所在語境及常識不難得知，我國主要依靠煤發(fā)電，且煤也用于北方城市的冬日取暖。故選C項。 9. 解析：選D。歸納大意題。文章后面四段主要講述中國要轉(zhuǎn)變模式向清潔能源方向發(fā)展，只有D項概括最全面。 10. 解析：選C。推理判斷題。A、B兩項文中并沒談到；D項過于偏激。根據(jù)最后一段可知，我國開發(fā)利用核能的決心和總的計劃不變，但要從日本的事故中吸取教訓(xùn)，更加注意安全問題。故選C項。
