Many governments are now subsidizing energy­saving lights to encourage people to turn to them.Consumers are discovering that the new­generation bulbs help them save money in the long run.Agriculture accounts for about 14 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions (排放) , and transporting the food around adds to the environmental cost.There is a team of young vegetable growers in the United Kingdom who want to encourage kids to start planting their own fruit and vegetables.A young lawyer wearing business clothes rides her bicycle to work in a large US.city.She's been biking to work every day for the past two years and says it's a lot easier than many people think.A recent study shows that more Americans bike or walk to work today than before.A university student from southeastern China carries a reusable shopping bag to cut back on disposable (一次性的) plastics.Some large shopkeepers have removed paper and plastic bags, and consumers are responding.In Canberra, Australia, summers are hot and winters cold.To save electricity, Adam Wilson in Canberra uses an energy­saving heating system, and he keeps the temperature lower than he did in years past.He still makes it through the summer without air conditioning.文章大意：氣候變暖和我們每個人都息息相關(guān)。從現(xiàn)在做起，從我們自己做起。1The passage mainly tells us that_.A.climate change is concerned with everyoneB.the global warming is getting worseC.saving energy is of great necessityD.human is to destroy the environment答案：A主旨大意題。由文章第一段最后一句話可知，環(huán)境變化與我們每個人都息息相關(guān)。2The underlined word “subsidizing” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”A.charging B.producing C.giving allowance to D.taking advantage of答案：C猜測詞義題。為鼓勵人們使用節(jié)能燈，許多政府對人們使用節(jié)能燈給予補助。因此劃線詞是“給予補助”的意思。3According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.The governments don't expect consumers to use the newgeneration bulbs.B.Agriculture should be responsible for part of the global gas emissions.C.Many people in Nicaragua go to work on foot or by bike.D.University students from China always carry disposable shopping bags.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第三段第一句話“Agriculture accounts for about 14 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions (排放) , and transporting the food around adds to the environmental cost.”可知，B項正確；由第二段最后一句話可知，顧客們發(fā)現(xiàn)使用節(jié)能燈從長遠(yuǎn)看是合算的，所以A項錯誤；由第二段第一句話可知，Nicaragua的人們使用節(jié)能燈，沒有提到步行或者騎自行車，所以C項錯誤；由倒數(shù)第二段第一句話可知，D選錯誤，只是提到一位大學(xué)生使用環(huán)保袋。4We can learn from the last paragraph that_.A.the climate in Canberra is mild all the year roundB.an energy­saving heating system will come into useC.Adam Wilson has a good habit of saving energyD.Adam Wilson is skilled in inventing the energy­saving equipment答案：C推理判斷題。由最后一段可知，Adam Wilson有節(jié)能的好習(xí)慣。B(2012·三明普高聯(lián)考)It's true that quite a few most respected scientific authorities have confirmed that the world is becoming hotter and hotter. There's also strong evidence that humans are contributing to the warming. Countless recent reports have proved the same thing. For instance, a 2010 summary about the climate science by the Royal Society noted that: “The global warming over the last half­century has been caused mainly by human activity.”You may not believe that humans could change the planet's climate, but the basic science is well understood. Each year, billions of tons of greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere because of human activity. As has been known for years, these gases hold heat that would otherwise escape to space, wrapping the planet in an invisible(看不見的) blanket.Of course, the earth's climate has always been changing due to “natural” factors such as volcanic eruption(熔化) or changes in solar, or cycles concerning the Earth's going around the sun. According to the scientific research, however, the warming observed by now matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build­up of greenhouse gas in the atmospherenot the warming we would expect from other possible causes.Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming recorded so far, that would give birth to a difficult question. As Robert Henson puts it: “If some newly discovered factor is to blame for the climate change, then why aren't carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases producing the warming that basic physics tells us they should be？”The only way to prove with 100% certainty that humans are responsible for global warming would be to run an experiment with two identical Earthsone with human influence and one without. That obviously isn't possible, and so most scientists are careful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty. 文章大意：全球變暖是不是人類活動的原因？本文進行了探討。5In most scientists' opinion, the global warming is mainly caused by_.A. solar activity B. volcanic activityC. natural factors D. human factors答案：D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段可知，全球變暖是由人類活動這一因素引起的。6The text is developed by_.A. giving typical examplesB. following the order of spaceC. analyzing a theory and arguing itD. comparing and finding differences答案：C推理判斷題。由全文可知，本文先提出了一個理論，然后進行了反駁。7The underline word “identical” in the last paragraph probably means_.A. totally differentB. exactly the sameC. extremely importantD. partly independent答案：B猜測詞義題。唯一能證明全球變暖百分之百是人類活動引起的辦法是運行兩個“完全相同的”地球，一個有人類影響，一個沒有。8Which of the following can be the best title?A. Are All the Scientists Really Scientific?B. Where Is Global Warming Leading Us to?C. Are Humans Definitely Causing Global Warming?D. What's Relation of Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases?答案：C主旨大意題。由文章大意可知，本文主要講述了人類活動造成全球變暖這一理論的探究，所以C項符合。111
