2019-2020年高中英語Module3ViolenceofNaturePeriod3Grammar語法專題課課后閱讀作業(yè)外研版 Ⅰ. 閱讀理解 It was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is actually worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution. Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels(coal and oil)is creating a“greenhouse effect”—holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature. If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be under water. Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particulate(微粒、顆粒)matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature─a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen(though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely). Perhaps, if we are very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now. 【語篇概述】本文闡述了大氣污染可能導(dǎo)致的兩種結(jié)果。 1. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution　　　. A. caused widespread damage in the countryside B. affected the entire eastern half of the United States C. had damaging effects on health D. existed merely in urban and industrial areas 【解析】選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由文章開頭可知。過去人們認(rèn)為空氣污染主要存在于大城市中。 2. As far as the greenhouse effect is concerned, the author　　　. A. shares the same view with the scientists B. is uncertain of its occurrence C. rejects it as being ungrounded D. thinks that it will destroy the world soon 【解析】選B。推理判斷題。文章第一段論述了溫室效應(yīng)可能會使全球氣溫上升, 第二段又談到污染也可能會使大氣溫度下降, 根據(jù)“At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen. . . ”可知B項(xiàng)正確。 3. It can be inferred from the passage that　　　. A. lowering the world’s temperature merely a few degrees would lead many major farming areas to disaster B. raising the world’s temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth C. almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade D. the world’s temperature will remain constant in the years to e 【解析】選A。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段中的第二句可知A項(xiàng)正確。其他幾項(xiàng)均不符合文中所列事實(shí)。 4. This passage is mainly concerned with　　　. A. the greenhouse effect B. the burning of fossil fuels C. the potential effect of air pollution D. the likelihood(可能性)of a new ice age 【解析】選C。主旨大意題。文章闡述了大氣污染可能導(dǎo)致的兩種結(jié)果: 升溫和降溫。所以只有C項(xiàng)正確。 Ⅱ. 語法填空 閱讀下面材料, 在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個單詞)或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。 Earthquakes are something that people fear.
