Ms. Garvison moved to a new seat, hoping it would help.可知，孩子的哭闲让邻座的一对夫妻很不高兴，所以Garvison换了一个新座位。故选D。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段When the baby's cries continued, the woman sitting next to her asked if she could try.和第三段As soon as she had her, Rylee was looking out the window and stopped crying," Garvison recalled.

Aghan Oscar is just among them. Thirteen years ago, Aghan. bothered by the ever-increasing quantity of plastinc waste in this low-income suburb of Nairobi, decided to find a way to recycle it.‎ Nou his company. Continental Renewable Energy Co.Ltd(COREC) produces poles for use in construction, farming and road signs. So far he's sold 96,000, and he says his potential ior growth is limited only by the considerable expense of setting up plastic recycling plants.‎ Most of Aghan's customers are farmers and developers who once used wooden fence poles. Customers say they have other benefits as well. "I have fenced my piece of land three times using wood posts, but most of the time the fence was vandalized(故意破坏)by villagers who used the posts as firewood." said Caleb Kapten. Now plastic posts have stopped the problem, he said.‎ The Kenya National Highways Authority is one of COREC s biggest customers. It approached the company after road signs were vandalized by criminals who sold the metal poles to steel manufacturing companies. Aghan reckons (估计)that COREC's products have saved the government millions of shillings, besides preventing road accidents. And he also points out that COREC has been able to conserve large numbers of trees by producing plastic poles.‎ When Aghan started this recycling business in 2003, most of his employees were ‎ his family members due to financial constraint(限制).Now he employs 250 young people to collect plastic waste. Fifty more youths work on the production line, where the waste is sorted according to quality before being crushed and washed, melted and cast into diflerent shapes. The poles arc then arranged by shape and size for sale in the yard of the recycling plant.‎ ‎4. What's the biggest challenge of Aghan's future career?‎ A. The poor technology in recycling. B.

He gave up fencing his land.‎ B. He guarded the land more carefully C. Hc replaced the wood posts with plastic ones D. He got some donated metal Posts.‎ ‎6. What does thc last paragraph suggest?‎ A. Great difficulty facing Aghan B. Stricl standards of plastic poles.‎ C. Various ways of making plastic poles.‎ D. The complex process of recycling plastic waste ‎7. Which best shows thc structure of the text?‎ A. B. ‎ C. D. ‎ ‎【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. D ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。受日益增多的塑料垃圾所扰的Aghan创办了自己的公司来解决这个问题他们回收利用废弃塑料来生产塑料杆儿用于建筑、农业和交通领域。‎ ‎【4题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第二段his potential for growth is limited only by the considerable expense of setting up plastic recycling plants.可知，未来事业面临的最大挑战是建造塑料回收工厂的费用过高。故选B。‎ ‎【5题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据文章第三段的内容尤其是Now plastic posts have stopped the problem, he said.可知，Caleb Kapten的问题因使用塑料杆儿来代替木杆儿而得到解决。故选C。‎ ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的内容尤其是Now he employs 250 young people to collect plastic waste. Fifty more youths work on the production line, where the waste is sorted according to quality before being crushed and washed, melted and cast into different shapes. The poles arc then arranged by shape and size for sale in the yard of the recycling plant.可知，他雇佣很多年轻人来收集塑料垃圾，另外有许多年轻人在生产线上工作，对废物进行分类，然后粉碎、清洗、熔化和铸造，最后出售。从而推断出，将废弃塑料回收再利用需要耗费巨大的人力其过程复杂繁琐。故选D。‎ ‎7题详解】‎ 推理判断题。通读全文可知第一段属于主旨段，引出本文的话题；第二段讲的是Aghan创办了自己的公司，生产用于建筑、农业和路标的塑料杆儿；第三段和第四段分别介绍塑料杆儿在农业和交通领域的应用，属于对第二段内容的扩展；第五段主要介绍这种塑料杆儿的生产过程，与第二段是并列关系。故选D。‎ C College students may find a greener campus when they return to classes this fall.

Meanwhile their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含大淀粉碳水水化合物),fibre, iron, vitamins and calcium is too low.‎ For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is particularly important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones.Similarly. foods that are rich in iron are good for young, rapidly developing bodies, so red meat. bread, green vegetables, dried fruit and tonified （使增强体质的）breakfast cereals are also recommended.‎ It is during our teenage years that habits of lifestyle can become entrenched (根深蒂固的），so it is crucial (全关重要的）that voung people are educated about what foods arc good for them.In 2005, in an attempt 10 change eating habits and open teenagers’ minds to new flavours and new tastes. celebrity chef Jamie Oliver launched a "Feed Me Better”campaign.As part of a television series Jamle School drivers. hc worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy. rutritious school meal opt ions. AIthough there was initial resistance from ‎ sonic teenagers and parents. the campaign was generally hailed （把 誉为）as a huge success and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.‎ No one expects to end thc teenage love affair with fast and junk food but. hopefully, if projects "Feed Me Better" and the govemment's own "Change for Life" campaign continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of balancing occasional treats with healthier food options.‎ ‎12. From the first two paragraphs we can know that .‎ A. British teenagers eat too much junk food B. British teenagers need to take in more calcium C. what British teenagers like to eat is probably what their bodies need D. British teenagers should reduce their intake of starchy carbohydrates ‎13.
