Thick trees and green grass could be seen everywhere. However, in order to build houses and grow more crops, people cut down more and more trees. As time went on, the whole woods was almost destroyed. Gradually, the green hills have changed into a wasteland. As a result, sandstorms struck us now and then, from which we suffered a lot. I think we should take measures to deal with these problems at once. And I do hope that all the people should realize the terrible result of not caring about our environment. What's more, we should take good care of the woods and plant more trees instead of cutting them down so as to improve our living conditions. Yours, Li Hua [答案示例] Dear_editor, My hometown used to be a beautiful place with thick trees and green grass here and there.

That warning comes from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). Its scientists are calling for the establishment of an Arctic observatory to help deal with possible dangerous changes resulting from the melting ice. The WMO believes changes in the Arctic area are likely evidence of a coming disaster. It noted that temperatures around the world continue to rise. The next year is predicted to be the hottest year since modern recordkeeping began 150 years ago. The Arctic is warming at least two times as fast as the world average, the WMO said. The highest Arctic sea levels in March were said to be the lowest on record. Petteri Taalas is the WMO's SecretaryGeneral. He said that the changes in the climate were having a serious result. For example, he said, the tree line in mountain areas is moving upward. “There are also some species of animals who have difficulties in coping with these changes,” Taalas said. These include polar bears, Arctic seals, and even some birds. He said the changing climate will also have an effect on fisheries. Taalas also warned that the melting of the Arctic's frozen permafrost could release large amounts of greenhouse gases. Those gases are the ones that speed up the rise of temperatures. But the melting of the Arctic sea ice is also opening up new transportation, travel and exploration possibilities. Taalas said that less ice could cut the time it takes for ships to sail between Europe and East Asia. Opening the Arctic would also increase the risk of accidents in hazardous waters and oil spills. The cold, undeveloped environment is more difficult to clean up than other areas. Taalas called for the establishment of an Arctic observatory to study, predict and react to climate change. He said this would keep transportation in Arctic waters safe. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了北极冰川加速融化及其带来的影响和应对措施。 4.Which of the following will be influenced by the warming according to Taalas? A.Environment. B.Transportation. C.Travel. D.Agriculture. 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第五段内容可知,Taalas认为北极冰川加速融化是因为气候变暖,而气候变暖会对林木业、动物和渔业造成严重影响,并产生温室气体,这些都是对环境的影响。故选A。 5.What's the advantage of the melting Arctic sea ice according to the passage? A.It prevents the greenhouse gases producing. B.It will make summer not as hot as before. C.An Arctic observatory needs to be set up.

D.A science report. 解析:选D 文章出处题。本文主要介绍了北极冰川加速融化及其带来的影响和应对措施,并且文中列举了相关人士的观点,因此本文可能出自科学报告。故选D。 C One Sunday Malachi Bradley was searching for wild mushrooms in eastern Utah when he realized he had wandered too far from the mountain lake where he was hiking with his father and siblings. The 10yearold boy tried looking for a road to flag down a driver, but the area about 200 miles east of Salt Lake City was too remote. He remembered the survival skills his father had taught him and eventually hunkered (蹲下) down between rocks still warm from the sun to protect himself from the cold mountain night. “It was strange not having anybody with me, but I just kept going. I knew I had to make it back, or my family would be really sad,” Malachi said on Tuesday. Over the nearly 30 hours he was missing in the backcountry. He found river water to drink and even tried unsuccessfully to catch a fish with a spear made from a stick. Meanwhile, dozens of search and rescue workers were searching the area on horses and ATVs (全地形车), as well as in the air, but they couldn't spot Malachi in the wooded area. As night fell and temperature dropped, Malachi wrapped his Tshirt around his legs, huddled in his jacket and protected himself from the weather between the rocks. The remaining warmth helped him get through the night. Back at Paul Lake, his father, Danny Bradley, and a friend who had joined them for the camping were keeping a fire burning, hoping the boy might wander back by himself. As the hours wore on, Bradley imagined his son alone in the woods and was terrified that he might be hurt. The next day, Malachi heard a police helicopter flying overhead. He knew the searchers aboard the craft couldn't see him through the trees, so he started walking again until he found a clearing. He stayed there and briefly fell asleep until a search plane spotted him from the air and a helicopter landed to pick him up on Monday. “Malachi was found about five miles southeast of where he went missing,” Uintah County Sheriff Vance Norton said. It appeared that he wandered down a deep and narrow valley and over a hill before he found the clearing. Malachi said he would go camping again, but next time he would not get away from other people. “I've learned from my mistakes,” he said. 语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一个在丛林中迷路的小男孩独自求生,并最终获救的故事。 8.What did Malachi manage to do to survive?

Just today, someone boasted to me that she was so busy she's averaged four hours of sleep a night for the last two weeks. She wasn't complaining; she was proud of the fact. She is not alone. Why are typically rational people so irrational in their behavior? The answer is that we're in the midst of a bubble. I call it “The More Bubble”. The nature of bubbles is that something is absurdly overvalued until — eventually — the bubble bursts, and we're left wondering why we were so irrationally animated in the first place. The thing we're overvaluing now is the opinion of doing it all, having it all, achieving it all. This bubble is being enabled by a combination of three powerful trends: smartphones, social media, and extreme consumerism. The result is not just information overload, but opinion overload. We are more aware than at any time in history of what everyone else is doing and, therefore, what we should be doing. In the process, we have been sold a bill of goods: that success means being supermen and superwomen who can get it all done. Of course, we boasted about being busy — it's code for being successful and important. And our answer to the problem of more is always more. We need more technology to help us create more technologies. We need to shift our workload to free up our own time to do yet even more. Luckily, there is a solution to the pursuit of more: the pursuit of less, but better. A growing number of people are making this change. I call these people Essentialists. These people are designing their lives around what is essential and removing everything else. These people arrange to have actual weekends (during which they are not working). They create technologyfree zones in their homes. They trade time on Facebook with calling those few friends who really matter to them. Instead of running to different meetings, they put space on their calendars to get important work done. So we have two choices: We can be among the last people caught up in “The More Bubble”, or we can join the growing community of Essentialists and get more of what matters in our one precious life. 语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。受智能手机、社交媒体和极端消费主义的影响,许多人乐于说自己很忙,这掩盖了生活的本质。我们应当关注生活中最重要的部分,屏蔽那些无关紧要的事物。 12.When the woman said for two weeks she only slept for four hours a night, ________.

D.The new trends of “The More Bubble”. 解析:选A 段落大意题。通读第四段可知,该段首先分析了“The More Bubble”的起因:受智能手机、社交媒体和极端消费主义的影响;接着又分析了“The More Bubble”的后果:信息太多、观点太多,吹嘘忙就是成功和重要的秘诀。故A项正确。 14.According to the article, Essentialists are those who ________. A.give up certain things for what matters in life B.prefer to change frequently C.are tired of information and opinion D.are eager to become successful and important 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“These people are designing their lives around what is essential and removing everything else.”可知,Essentialists是指那些为生活中重要的东西而放弃某些不重要的东西的人。故A项正确。 15.We can infer from the article that the author ________ “The More Bubble”. A.is supportive of B.is undecided about C.disapproves of D.wonders about 解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第四段第二句“The result is not just information overload, but opinion overload.”并结合第四段内容可知,“The More Bubble”导致信息膨胀、观点泛滥,从而掩盖了真实的生活;据此可以判断,作者对此持反对态度。故C项正确。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 (2018·江西重点中学联考)There are so many things we do in our daily lives that have become a “habit”. __1__ How you answer the phone is a habit. The way you sit in the car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after you've done it in a certain way for so long? It's not very easy to do. The minute your mind drifts to something else, you go right back to the old way of doing things. __2__ It's a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace. To change an existing habit or form a new one can be a tedious task. Let's pick something fairly easy to start with, like spending 15 minutes in the morning reading the Bible. If you want to turn something into a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it. __3__ Make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis. Imprint it in your mind. Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start. After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, “Hey, I forgot to ...” Keep using the notes if you have to, __4__ Some people say it will take over a month to solidify it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine.__5__ A.What is a “habit” anyway? B.Is doing things in an old way good? C.Brushing your teeth is a habit. D.Forming a bad habit is easy. E.It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit. F.If you don't, you will find a way to do everything but that. G.That's something you won't necessarily have to think about before you do it — habit. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,阐述了习惯的定义,并介绍了几个培养习惯的方法。 1.选C 根据空格上一句“There are so many things we do in our daily lives that have become a ‘habit’.”可知,我们日常所做的许多事情已经成了习惯;由空格下一句“How you answer the phone is a habit.”可知,接电话的方式也成了习惯;据此可以判断,空格处应列举日常生活中已经成为习惯的行为。C项“刷牙是一种习惯”紧密衔接上下文,符合语境。故C项正确。 2.选A 根据空格下一句“It's a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace.”可知,该句阐述了习惯的定义;据此可以判断,空格处应提问“习惯是什么”。故A项正确。 3.选F 根据空格上一句“If you want to turn something into a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it.”可知,如果你想将某件事变成你每天都要做的习惯行为,你就必须想要做它,此处强调的是想要做的重要性;据此可以判断,空格处应谈论如果你不想做会发生什么情况。故F项正确。 4.选E 根据空格下一句“Some people say it will take over a month to solidify it and make it something you will do without having to think about it.”可知,该处陈述的是养成习惯的一种方法。空格处应陈述养成习惯的另一种方法。E项中的“16 to 21 times”与下文中的“Two to three weeks”相照应。故E项正确。 5.选G 根据空格上一句“Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine.” 并结合空格处所在的位置可知,空格处总结全文,再次阐述什么是习惯。G项“那是你在做之前不必考虑的事——习惯”符合文意。故G项正确。查看更多
