Women of achievement 李仕才 一、阅读理解 ‎    You may not think it very much—a used ice cream tub(纸杯) on the beach, a cigarette butt in the sand. But these little pieces of litter amount to around 8.8 million tons of trash in the world's oceans, poisoning and choking sealife, according to figures from the World Wildlife Foundation.‎ ‎    Now, in a set of images titled The Price Of Convenience by Waters has shown the destroying effects that casual littering has on creatures. In one image called “your convenience is their extinction”, a sea turtle's shell is hollowed out(掏空) and filled with banana skins, soda cans, and other debris.‎ ‎    “It is shocking the amount of trash in the oceans,” Waters, 23, said, describing his project which he has begun a campaign to the WWF. “When you leave litter on the beach,you are treating the ocean like a trash can. When you throw trash over the side of a boat, you're treating the ocean like a trash can. And when you leave litter at a beach festival or party, it's the same.Obviously it would be impossible to clean the oceans but I felt I had to try something.”Waters explained that he, like many other Westerners, has always been aware of environmental concerns but did not begin to do something about i.‎ ‎     The turning point came as he visited Malaysia with his girlfriend last year. He reached the shore to find piles of trash.But it was beautiful, the smell of the air, of the ocean.I had a strong feeling for it after I started researching trash in the ocean. A few months later, he came across the video of a sea turtle in obvious agony(痛苦) with a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils(鼻孔).That video inspired the first of Waters' three images. “Sea turtles are such gentle creatures. I felt sick watching that video.Trash left on a beach by humans caused so much pain and suffering.These animals don't have voices so we've got to speak up for them.” he added.‎ 10‎ ‎   Waters has not yet received a response from WWF regarding his images.For now, he says, he is inspired to develop more campaigns that raise awareness of environmental concerns.‎ ‎1.What can be found in the sea turtle's shell according to the passage? A.Some ice cream. B.Some drawings. C.Some litter. D.Some creatures. 2.Why did the turtle in the video seem very painful? A.Because its nostrils were full of cigarette butts. B.Because it had been poisoned and seemed to be dying. C.Because most of its body parts had been injured seriously. D.Because there was a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils. 3.Water's trying something aims to ________. A.make the polluted ocean become clean B.remind people awareness of ocean pollution C.improve his skill of drawing pictures D.get some support from the WWF 参考答案： 1.C; 2.D; 3.B 解析： 1.[细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句的filled with banana skins, soda cans, and other debris可知在海龟的身体里填满了香蕉皮、苏打水瓶子和其他垃圾。] 2.[细节理解题。根据文章第四段第四句的with a drinking straw stuck up its nostrils可知是海龟鼻孔的吸管让它难受的。] 3.[推理判断题。根据文章第三段最后一句Waters explained that he, like many other Westerners, has always been aware of environmental concerns可知他通过自己的努力来引起其他人对海洋环境的关注。]‎ 10‎ 二、单句语法填空 ‎1．Nowadays, cycling, along with jogging and swimming, ________(regard) as one of the best allround forms of exercise.‎ 答案：is regarded　当主语后面接由along with引起的短语时，谓语动词应和主语(cycling)保持一致；cycling与regard之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，且此处描述一般事实。‎ ‎2．He was

remarkable achievement “一个非凡的成就”。‎ ‎5．With our teacher ________(support) us, we feel quite encouraged.‎ 答案：supporting　support “支持”前有With, 因此应使用所填词的非谓语动词形式，且teacher和support构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故填supporting。‎

It is difficult to avoid such moments in life. Sometimes, this feeling comes from the sensation of envy that we tend to experience 10‎ ‎ when we notice others ＂better＂ lives, appearances, successes, and so on. 　1 　. It can ruin relationships, friendships, as well as a sense of satisfaction. Here are some tips to help get rid of jealousy.‎ Be confident.‎ Not all of us are born with confidence. It takes years of practice to find self-assurance. Follow the ‘fake it till you makes it’s method. 　 2 　Day by day, confidence forms. If you feel confident in yourself, you are less likely to feel inferior to others.‎ Don’t compare yourself.‎ Comparison is the most significant aspect of jealousy. If you are able to avoid comparing yourself to others, you will experience a new-found sense of freedom.‎ A good way to judge this is by valuing imperfection. 　 3 　We are all constantly growing and improving throughout our lives, which is value in failure.‎ ‎　 4 　‎ When you are feeling upset, remind yourself of your positive qualities. Reflecting on what you do well puts your life into perspective, which is always a plus! A positive spin can be placed on almost anything that you may see as a negative event. There is always a way to find a positive angle.‎ Make a healthy change.‎ Most of us wish to change, especially faced with something that we are forced to accept. However, most of the things that people tend to feel jealous about can in fact change in a healthy way. If you feel jealous of someone else’s accomplishments, use it as motivation to work harder to achieve your own goals. Just remember, if the change you want to make is healthy, go for it. 　 5 　‎ A. Act positively.‎ B. Think positively.‎ C. Jealousy is like a snake.‎ D. Jealousy has the potential to kill happiness .‎ E. Use the feelings of jealousy as motivation to improve yourself.‎ 10‎ F. If you take it as a part of your routine, it will gradually become natural to you.‎ G. Use your weakness as a learning experience, rather than as a chance to make you feel bad.‎ ‎【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了嫉妒对人们的危害，并给人们提出了摆脱嫉妒的三点建议。‎ ‎1.D 【解析】根据前文的＂Jealousy is like a poison.＂及空后的＂It can ruin relationships, friendships, as well as a sense of satisfaction.＂可知嫉妒就像毒药，它会毁掉关系、友谊和满足感，故此处应指嫉妒有扼杀幸福的潜在力量。故选D。‎ ‎ 3.G 【解析】根据前文的＂A good way to judge this is by valuing imperfection.＂（通过重视不完美是一个很好的方法）及空后＂We are all constantly growing and improving throughout our lives, which is value in failure.＂（整个一生中，我们都在不断地成长和改进，这也正是失败的价值所在。）可知此处应指我们应该把我们的不足当成一种学习的经历，而不是让它成为让我们感觉糟糕的因素。故选G。‎ ‎4.B 【解析】根据段落中的＂When you are feeling upset, remind yourself of your positive qualities. Reflecting on what you do well…＂（当你感觉郁闷时，让自己想一想自己身上积极的品质。回忆一下你擅长的事情……）可知，本段的主题应是思想要积极。故选B。‎ ‎5.E 【解析】根据前文的＂If you feel jealous of someone else’s accomplishments, use it as motivation to work harder to achieve your own goals. Just remember, if the change you want to make is healthy, go for it.＂（如果你对别人的成绩感到嫉妒时，要把它作为更加努力地工作去实现自己目标的动力。只要记住，如果你想要的改变是健康的，那就去做它。）可知，此处应指我们应该把嫉妒感当成自我发展的动力。故选E。‎ 10‎ 10‎
