Reading comprehention:AAre you doing all you can to recycle your rubbish? It only takes a minute to recycle and help reduce waste in your home as well as the costs of waste management. Here are some ideas to get you started.A Never throw away vegetable matter. Start a compost (混合肥料) bin in your garden. You'll be amazed how much this can reduce the bulk (体积) of your rubbish andit's great for the garden, too.B Don't throw used containers in the rubbish. Get into the habit of sorting them into recycling categories (class or group of things)—glass, aluminum (铝), plastics and paper.C Glass containers can be placed in the bottle banks at supermarket car parks throughout the city. Look for the big green bins. Or you can leave your bottles out for collection on Monday morning.D Aluminum cans can earn you cash so don't just throw them away—save them and save money. Ring your council to find out when they collect.E Paper is easily recycled. Weekly collections are common in most areas. Make sure you place recyclable paper in the black bins provided. Ask the council offices if you don't already have a bin. But remember, waxed paper is not accepted.F Most plastic bottles and containers can be recycled. Look on the bottom of the container for the identification (识别) code.65.The following four pictures are mentioned in .A. Item A,C,D,FB. Item A,B,D,FC. Item B,D,E,FD. Item B,C,D,E66. You can make money by saving .A. paperB. glass bottlesC. plastic bottlesD. aluminum cans67. Which of the following statements is true to the facts about waste management?A. All paper can be recycled.B. The recycling code is found on the side of plastic bottles.C. All plastic containers can't be recycled.D. You can put glass containers in the park.BAs a result of pollution, Lake Erie, on the borders of the U.S.A. and Canada, is now without many living things.Pollution in water is not simply a matter of “poisons" killing large numbers of fish overnight. Very often the effects of pollution are not noticed for many months or years because the first organisms (生物体) to be affected are either plants or plankton (浮游生物). These organisms are the food of fish, birds, and other creatures. When this food disappears, the fish and birds die, too. In this way a whole food chain can be wiped out, and it is not until dead fish and water birds are seen at the river's edge or on the sea shore that people realize what is happening.Where do the substances which pollute the water come from? There are two main sources, sewage (污水) and industrial waste. As more detergent (洗涤剂) is used in the homes, so more of it is finally put into our rivers, lakes and seas. Detergents harm water, birds, breaking down the natural substances which keep their feathers waterproof. Sewage itself, if not properly treated, makes the water dirty and prevents all forms of life in rivers and the sea from receiving the oxygen they need. Industrial waste is even more harmful since there are many highly poisonous materials in it, such as copper and lead.So, if we want to stop this pollution, the answer is simple. Sewage and industrial waste must be made clean before flowing into the water reservoirs. It may already be too late to save some rivers and lakes, but others can still be saved if the correct action is taken at once.68. Pollution in water is noticed .A. when the first organisms are affectedB. when a great many fish and birds dieC. when poisons are poured into waterD. as soon as the balance of nature is destroyed69. The living things die because there is no in the lake or river.A. oxygenB. poisonC. waterD. fish70. What is the meaning of “waterproof", the underlined word in the third paragraph?A. Full of water.B. Covered with water.C. Not allowing water to go through.D. Cleaned by water.71.The way to stop water pollution is .A. to put oxygen into the riverB. to realize the serious situation clearlyC. to make special room in the sea for our wasteD. to make the waste material harmlessCPart AIn 2001 the United Kingdom was hit again by foot-and-mouth disease, the first time since the 1960s, causing a national crisis. However, much of the panic and confusionwas spread largely as a result of ignorance of the disease.Foot-and-mouth is a highly contagious (传染性的) disease found in Africa, South America, Asia, the Middle East and parts of Europe. It affects cloven-footed (偶蹄) domestic animals such as cows, pigs, sheep and goats, as well as wild animals like rats and deer and zoo animals such as elephants. Horses, however, cannot contract (感染) the disease.It is very rare for humans to catch the disease. Indeed, only one case has been recorded in Great Britain and that was in 1967.Part BFoot-and-mouth disease is insidious (潜伏的) and can be spread by direct or indirect contact with infected animal. The disease can be spread in the wind, and can also be spread by people, equipment or vehicles which have been in contact with the disease.Although the authorities do not really know where this latest outbreak of the disease originated, it can enter a country in frozen meat imported from other countries where the disease is common. Unlike Mad Cow Disease (BSE) and the human equivalent CJD, foot-and-mouth has no implications (牵连) for the human food chain. Any meat, milk,cheese, and other dairy products can be consumed quite safely.Part CIt seems that the only way to contain the disease is to kill infected animals. There is no curefor the disease, and although adult animals normally recover in 2~3 weeks, they sadly remain carriers of the virus (病毒) for up to two years.From the time the disease was first reported to the time the epidemic (流行) was officially declared over, one and a half million and more domestic animals were slaughtered and large areas of the countryside were closed to the public. These areas included parks, woods and forests, and various leisure attraction situated in the countryside.65. The main purpose of writing this text is ________.A. to warn people of the danger of the diseaseB. to describe the disaster caused by the diseaseC. to share some of the facts about the diseaseD. to declare the success in control of the disease66. Foot-and-mouth disease is insidious because it is spread ________.A. by farmers and farm vehiclesB. in so many different waysC. by being carried in the airD. mainly by people who have been in contact with infected animals67. How is foot-and-mouth different from Mad Cow Disease?A. It affects the human food chain.B. People cannot consume dairy products.C. It is found in frozen meat.D. Meat is still safe to eat.68. The underlined word “they" in Part C refers to ________.A. diseasesB. infected animalsC. adult animalsD.2~3 weeksDBiological Invasion (入侵): Rabbits, an Australian Way of Life When introduced to Australia, rabbits proved a disaster. The story is from multiple sides—from how rabbits destroyed vast zones of grazing land (畜牧场), to what natives thought, to the 1930s Depression (大萧条) when rabbits kept hungry stomachs full.Rabbits, even with human help, took some six centuries to spread throughout Britain. They spread faster than any introduced mammal (哺乳动物) anywhere. They moved 10 to 15 kilometres a year through forests and up to 130 kilometres across open country.Rabbits ate seedlings until no plants remained left. Grazing animals starved. Pasture and soil disappeared. After 1880, many rabbit-control methods were tried but nothing worked.Rabbits reached central Australia in 1894. T. Tjupurrula tells how his father saw one of the first rabbits in Pintupi country, Northern Territory, in 1908:“That yumpita's had gone into a hole. Might be dangerous one. Look-out! : Nose, whiskers big one eyes, long one ears: Alright, he's not dangerous one, he's only eating grass.”Big landowners hated rabbits. Yet many small farmers and poorer Australians, both European and natives, needed them. For the price of a cheap rifle or a few steel traps, they had an endless supply of meat for their families and skins to sell for cash. Many a kid of the Depression years remembers creeping out into the forest to trap rabbits for breakfast. Just 30 years after rabbits were introduced, governments were offering a small fortune for a way of finishing them. Many methods of rabbit control failed. Instead, Australians learned to keep out further species that might run wild. From 1940 onwards, the Commonwealth (联邦) Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) experimented with chemical and biological methods of rabbit control. Fumigation (烟熏法) seemed promising, but under pressure from land-holders, CSIRO used myxomatosis (多发性粘液瘤). It spread rapidly, killing millions of rabbits.68. During the 1930s Depression, in Australia, rabbits _______.A. were food for hungry peopleB. ate up huge areas of grazing landC. were killed for funD. made grass-eating animals starve69. Rabbits moved ________.A. more slowly in open country than in woodsB. in woods as fist as in open countryC. much faster in open country than in woodsD. slowly in woods as well as in open country70. In the 1930s Depression years, Which is NOT mentioned?A. poorer Australians could afford to buy rifles to kill rabbitsB. wealthy Australians disliked rabbits deeplyC. most kids experienced rabbit-hunting for mealsD. the rich land-holder also sold rabbit skins for money71. Ever-growing rabbits ______.A. were an only supply of skins for the poor to change for cashB. were a disaster for humans to balance natureC. can only be controlled by chemical methodsD. didn't draw the Commonwealth government's attentionEThere is much discussion today about whether economic (经济的) growth is desirable. At an earlier period, our desire for material wealth may have proved proper. Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems. Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much , too fast.Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down. They believe that society is coming near to certain limits on growth. These include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible bad effects of industry on the natural environment ,and the continuing increase in the world's population. As society reaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease.People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. These proponents of economic growth believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world. Furthermore, they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial(财政的) resources required to protect out natural surroundings from industrialization.This discussion over the desirability of continued economic growth is very important to business and industry. If those who argue against economic growth are correct, the problems they mention cannot be ignored(忽视). To find an answer, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another.72. According to those who argue against economic growth we must slow down for the followingreasons EXCEPT that .A. our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industryB. the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which economic growth cannotcontinueC .the world population is ever increasingD. more effects should be made to improve the quality of our material life73. The passage is mainly about .A. the importance of the discussion on economic growthB. the advantages and disadvantages of economic growthC. the present discussion on economic growthD. the relationship between economic growth and environment74. We may infer from the context the underlined word“proponents”most probably means .A. arguments in support of somethingB. disagreementsC. people who argue for somethingD. people who argue against something75. We may infer from the passage that .A. the author describes the case as it isB. the author is for economic growthC. the author is against continued economic growthD. the author is very much worried about the problems caused by continued economic growthV.Write a short paragraph in Chinese to explain the following passage. Translation is unnecessary.AWater pollution Attention for water pollution exploded in the 1980s.The oil spill of the Exxon Valdez showed many around the world just how horrible the effects of water pollution could be. However, even the Exxon Valdez spill barely touched the surface of the problem of water pollution. The ship spilt only 5%of the oil split that year, and oil is just one of many pollutants that people dump into the water every year,14 billions pounds of sewage, sludge, and garbage are dumped into the world’s oceans,19 trillion gallons waste also enter the water annually.BThe problem of protecting the environment from pollution and contamination by various types of discharges is now in the focus of attention all over the world. Together with the development of industry and transportation, and also with the growth in the assortment of chemicals, there is a continuous increase in pollution. This is a global process which has two principal aspects—pollution of the atmosphere and pollution of the aquasphere. The problem created by the continuous, accelerated pollution of the atmosphere, especially in the environment of large cities and industrial centers is extremely acute. At present hundreds of millions of tons of divers substances which are a source of harm to the health of people, plant life, and useful micro-organisems are discharged to the atmosphere. The volume of these discharges to the atmosphere is continuously increasing together with industrial growth; in the last decade the volume has doubled and in a number of large industrial cities and centers the concentration of harmful impurities is already impermissibly high and the level is dangerous for health and plant life.CEnvironmental problems are always interrelated. Sometimes a solution to one problem actually creates another problem. For example, when people are sick and dying from disease, it is natural to want to improve human health. when health is improved and infant mortality is reduced, a population explosion may result. To feed this growing population, natural habitats are often destroyed by turning them into farmland. As natural habitats are destroyed, the wild plants, predators, parasites, outbreaks of insect pests become more common. Farmers use pesticides to control the pests and protect the corps, but in the process the environment becomes polluted. The development of this entire cycle in itself consumes fossil fuel supplies that are becoming scarce. In addition, when fuels are burned, air pollutants are generated.。
