第七節(jié)　閱讀理解 Some of the greatest problems we face today are the destruction(破壞)of our environment. Brown clouds，polluted water，endangered wild animals...these problems seem so huge. So my family does what we can.We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags.We walk where we dont have to drive... But does it do any good？When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags，am I doing any good？Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world? I recently learned something about flamingos(火烈鳥)which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more.Every year，when the time comes for migration(遷徙)，a few of them first take off from the lake.But none of the others seem to notice，so the small group returns.However，the next day they try again.This time a few more fly along with them，but most of them still pay no attention，so they return again.They try for several times.Every time a few more birds join in but，since the thousands of others still take no notice，the great migration plan is once more stopped. Then one day something changes.The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before，then more.Finally，they all take flight and the migration really begins.What a spectacular sight it must be—thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once! A few can make a difference.Even if youre the one to take the first step，and continue trying，others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems. 1．Where would you most probably read this passage?

(所以我的家人做我們能做的一切。)” 可知，作者很擔(dān)心當(dāng)前環(huán)境被破壞的問題，故他用布袋購物是為了做些對(duì)環(huán)境有益的事，故選A。B項(xiàng)中的貴賤問題文中沒有提及；C、D兩項(xiàng)根據(jù)文章第三段中的第二句可以排除。 3．D　解析：四個(gè)選項(xiàng)的意思是：frustrating“令人沮喪的”，surprising“令人驚奇的”，terrible“可怕的”，fantastic“極好的，了不起的，很大的”。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段最后一句話“. . . thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once！(……成千上萬只火烈鳥同時(shí)起飛到空中！)”可推知這是一個(gè)多么壯觀的景象啊。故畫線部分的含義為D。 4．B　解析：根據(jù)文章第二段最后一句話“We walk where we dont have to drive. . . (我們步行去不必開車就能去的地方……)”可知A項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的；根據(jù)文章第一段第二句話中的endangered wild animals. . . 可知C項(xiàng)是錯(cuò)誤的；根據(jù)文章第四段內(nèi)容可知少數(shù)火烈鳥們?cè)趪L試了很多次之后才引起眾多火烈鳥的注意，故D項(xiàng)也是錯(cuò)誤的。根據(jù)文章第四段第一句話“I recently learned something about flamingos which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more. (我最近了解了一些關(guān)于火烈鳥的事，它們喜歡上千只或更多的火烈鳥聚在一起。)”可知火烈鳥喜歡群居。所以B項(xiàng)正確。 5．B　解析：通讀全文可知，作者寫這篇文章的主要意圖是告訴人們堅(jiān)持嘗試會(huì)產(chǎn)生不同的效果。故選B。
