2019屆高考英語一輪復(fù)習(xí)自選訓(xùn)練 閱讀理解42 (1)The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. Its bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.1. _, our world is becoming much smaller. A. Because of the rise in pollution B.

B。由文章的首句我們得知：世界變小是由于modern traffic and modern communication means(現(xiàn)在的交通運(yùn)輸工具和溝通工具的使用)，而這一切都要靠科學(xué)技術(shù)的發(fā)展，據(jù)此我們可以推出答案是B。2. C。原文的第2句告訴我們Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago(今天的生活比以前容易得多)，反過來說，以前的生活一定比今天的艱難，所以答案是C。3. B。在眾多選項(xiàng)中，只有選項(xiàng)B(noise pollution噪音污染)是聽得見的。4. D。我們根據(jù)第4段的第1, 2句Air pollution is still the most serious. Its bad for all living things in the world，可以得知空氣污染之所以最為嚴(yán)重，正如選項(xiàng)D(它是危害全世界生物的)所說的那樣。5. C。選項(xiàng)C可以在原文第2段的第2句找到，但它缺少了前提條件many years ago(以前不嚴(yán)重而現(xiàn)在嚴(yán)重)，所以選項(xiàng)C是錯(cuò)誤的*結(jié)束formed by 60-thousand transparent sticks that sway in the wind and containfiber-optic filaments(光纖絲).
