Water, which covers about 74 percent of the earth’s surface, is man’s most precious resource. Without it we cannot live. Clean water keeps us alive; polluted water means disease and death.Keeping our water pure is by no means an easy task but it is something that must be done.
Hong Kong once prided herself on being the “Fragrant Harbour”. However, these days, it is not certain if Hong Kong’s harbour could still be called “fragrant”. For, like many other places, Hong Kong has not been spared water pollution. A visit to Tolo and Victoria Harbour, or any of the beaches in Hong Kong is enough to make one aware of the ugly truth that Hong Kong waters are indeed polluted.
The great threat to our water is bacteria pollution. Another great source of water pollution is poisonous chemicals. These substances, which are found in industrial waste and agricultural pesticides, make up unseen dangers that enter biological food chains.
Pollution control is a continuing problem for the government. It is believed that the most effective form of control is legislation（立法）. Most importantly, the present laws on pollution should be given more force. On the other hand, no amount of legislation can effectively control pollution unless those concerned are properly educated about the danger posed by pollution.
While a great majority of Hong Kong citizens and residents seem to be greatly concerned about ways to control water pollution, it is discouraging to note that there are, in our midst, some people who remain apathetic（無動(dòng)于衷）about the problem. In a recent radio programme conducted on what people in the streets thought about the water pollution problem, one apparently unconcerned person said, “What do I care about water pollution? I don’t drink polluted water. As long as the water I drink is not polluted, I’m not bothered. Water pollution is too big a problem and let’s leave it to the government.”
If all residents in Hong Kong will take such an indifferent attitude, all the government’s attempts to control pollution, let alone the anti-pollution legislation, will prove useless. The best form of pollution control each citizen can employ is to be aware of his surroundings. We hope that someday, the problem of water pollution in Hong Kong will cease to alarm us.
【小題1】By the underlined sentences, the writer wants to show that ______.

A．we should not use polluted water
B．it is our responsibility to keep our water clean and safe
C．clean water is vitally important to the survival of human beings
D．water is abundant but very expensive
【小題2】What can you infer from the second paragraph?
A．Hong Kong indeed deserves the name.
B．Hong Kong never deserves such a name.
C．Hong Kong can’t avoid the damage of pollution.
D．Hong Kong has failed to live up to such reputation.
【小題3】The writer quotes the words in the programme to show us that a block to the solution of the problem is _________.
A．people’s lack of education
B．people’s I-don’t-care attitude
C．people’s wait-and-see attitude
D．people’s over-dependence on the government
【小題4】In the final analysis, the best approach to the problem of water pollution is ________.
A．legislation
B．rapid development of modern science
C．mass education
D．everybody taking care of his own surroundings

科目：高中英語 來源：2015屆北京市西城區(qū)（北區(qū)）高一上學(xué)期期末考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

閱讀下面短文，從各題A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳答案。

People who smoke could lose around one third of their daily memory, researchers say.

A study by a team at Northumbria University showed that smokers lost more of their memory when compared to non-smokers.

And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non-smokers.

The study involved more than seventy 18-to-25-year-olds and included a tour of the university’s campus. Those who took part were asked to recall small details, such as a list of songs played at a campus concert and tasks completed at various points－known as real world memory test. Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.

Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria University’s Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in anti-smoking campaigns. He said, “Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many as 45 million in the United States, it's important to understand the effects smoking has on everyday cognitive（認(rèn)知的）function-of which prospective memory is an excellent example. ”

“This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has an impact on memory. We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits for the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can have knock-on benefits for cognitive functions too. ’’

The research will now investigate the effects of passive smoking on memory, while Dr. Heffernan and Dr. Terence O’Neil will look into the effects of third-hand smoking－toxins left on curtains and furniture.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Smoking does harm to health.

B．Smokers take a tour to the University’s campus.

C．Smoking can affect one’s memory.

D．Smokers are compared to non-smokers.

2.How did those who took part in the study perform when asked to recall small details?

A．Smokers did the worst among the participants.

B．Non-smokers could recall about half of them.

C．Smokers could recall nothing at all.

D．Those who gave up smoking did best.

3.According to Dr. Tom Heffernan, the findings_______.

A．would be really a surprise to the public

B．would contribute to fighting against smoking

C．would be used in real world memory test

D．would be nothing new to the researchers

4.What does the underlined word “impact’’ most probably mean?

A．order            B．impression         C．expression         D．effect

5.What will Dr. Heffernan and Dr Terence O’Neil do?

A．Investigate the effects of third-hand smoking.

B．Do research on how smoking affects passive smokers.

C．Find ways to persuade people to quit smoking.

D．Study whether giving up smoking affects memory.
