6、eption at the historic Glen Willis House,located in Frankfort.At Ruths wedding,her sister told her to put a dime(十分硬币)in her ring box so that it would bless her marriage.At the time,no one had a dime,so they placed two nickels(五分镍币)in the ring box,and she still has them today.They highlight of the r
7、eception was when a ring box with a dime was brought outthere wasnt a dry eye in the room.Sullivan reflects on her emotional day:“I am overwhelmed(淹没在)at all that has come from this.”本文讲述Ruth Sullivan 92岁终于实现了穿婚纱的愿望,体现了人们对老年人生活的关心。1.Whats Ruths pity in her previous life?A.She didnt celebrate her wed

11、断题。这是一篇体现关心老年人生活的新闻报道,因此很可能出现在报纸上。BSince the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have gotten a lot“greener”toward the environment.“We didnt know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,”says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA.But what began as
12、nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,”says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from
13、Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day.According to US government reports,emissions(排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain
14、and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of“green thinking”has become part of practices.Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs;today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save
15、 a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.Twentyfive years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today,its hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!”says Bruce Anderson.本
16、文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了自从1970年的第一个“地球日”以来,美国人在环保问题认识上的变化以及他们采取了一些有效措施积极应对环境问题等。文章最后还指出了教育在环保方面的重要性。5.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about_.A.the social movementB.recycling techniquesC.environmental problemsD.the importance of Earth Day答案:C解析:细节理解题。根据第一段的We didnt know at that time
17、that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it.“那时候我们甚至不知道环境的存在,更别提环境问题了”可知,当时美国人对环境问题没有足够的认识,因此应选择C项。A项指社会运动,与主题不符;B项指回收的技巧,范围太窄;D项应该是环境的重要性,而不是“地球日”的重要性。6.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?A.The grassroots level.B.The business circl
18、e.C.Government officials.D.University professors.答案:A解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第二句Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“商人、政治领导人、大学教授,尤其是数百万的基层美国民众正在参与这项运动”可知,这里强调了这个运动的支持者应该是那些普通的美国民众,因此答案应是A项The grassroots level
19、,从而排除前面提到的那几类人。7.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest.B.They have settled their environmental problems.C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.D.They have reduced pollution through effective measures.答案:D解析:细节理解题。文章第三段的第一句说明
20、了汽车和卡车的尾气排放量从每年1 030万吨降到了550万吨,由此可排除A项;再结合第二句“一氧化碳排放超标的城市从40个降到了9个”可知C项是错误的;根据第三句提到的“环境问题依然严峻”可知这个问题还没有得到解决,所以排除B项。本段列举的这些数字证明了美国人采取了有效措施,减少了环境污染,因此答案选D项。8.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph?A.Education. BPlanning.C.Green living. DCO reduction.答
21、案:A解析:推理判断题。结合最后一段提到的“25年以前,在美国几乎没有关于环境的教育项目,而如今,很难找到没有类似项目的公立学校、大学或者法学院了”,再结合布鲁斯所说的“没有教育,就无法改变环境问题”等,我们可以推断出教育(education)的重要性,从而排除了B项“计划”、C项“绿色生活”和D项“减少一氧化碳”这几个选项。C“People are ruder today because they are rushed and moretime poorthan ever before,”says Patsy Rowe,“Manners_have_fallen_off_the_radar(雷
22、达)”Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people dont wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint(抱怨)about the noise.Here are some examples of rudeness.Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet.To them,dealing with an actual
23、human is like an evolutionary step backward.It feels very slow because humans dont work at 4G speeds.When you have dinner with friends,you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone.We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings lifechanging news,so taki
24、ng calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with.What is worse,some people even tend to send anonymous(匿名的)rude messages by email.However,rudeness is never acceptable.Dont assume it is OK to be rude if the person youre in touch with wont recognize you.If you
25、have something awful to say,have the courage to face the person and say it,write a letter or email and sign it,or forget it.Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.We shouldnt blame technology for our shortcomings.Technology is here to help us,but we should not allow it to ta
26、ke over our lives.An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings.People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if wed publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.本文是一篇议论文。当今社会,科技进步了,而人们却变得更加粗鲁了。本文就这一问题进行了论述。9.What can be inferred from the underline
27、d sentence in Paragraph 1?A.People can tell good from bad behavior.B.Radar is able to observe human behavior.C.People care little about their behavior.D.Radar can be used to predict human behavior.答案:C解析:推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“People are ruder today because they are rushed and moretime poorthan ever befor
28、e”可知,现在人们日益粗鲁起来是因为人们比以前更忙,空余时间也更少,前后两句话都是Patsy Rowe所说的,由此可推知,两句之间所表达的意思相近,故C项“人们很少关心他们的行为”符合文意。10.Some people are less willing to deal with humans because_.A.they are becoming less patientB.they are growing too independentC.they have to handle many important messagesD.they have to follow an evolutio
29、nary step backward答案:A解析:推理判断题。根据文章第二段第二、三句“.an evolutionary step backward.It feels very slow because humans dont work at 4G speeds.”可知,对一些人来说,和人打交道就像演化退步,因为人们工作没有4G的速度,因此感觉和人打交道更慢些。由此可以推知,一些人不愿意和人们交往是因为他们没有耐心,故答案A符合文意。11.The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is_.A.ridiculous Bdisgusting
30、C.acceptable Dreasonable答案:B解析:细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句“Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.”可知,作者认为发匿名的粗鲁信息来打扰别人是残忍且令人恶心的行为,故答案B符合文意。12.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.We should applaud good behavior.B.Technology can never be blamed.C.We should keep pointing out mis
31、takes.D.Technology will take over our lives one day.答案:A解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段的大意可知,我们不应该将我们的缺点归咎于科技。由“An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings.”可知,重要的一步是了解自己的缺点;最后一句则点明了本段的主题,即我们需要有好的行为习惯。故A项正确。DArgentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place.Around 1870,it was experiencing an ec
32、onomic(经济的)boom,and the capital,Buenos Aires,attracted many people.Farmers,as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy,came to Buenos Aires,seeking jobs.These jobs didnt pay well,and the people felt lonely and disappointed with their new life in the city.As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city,the dance known as the tango(探戈舞)came into being.At the beg
