April 22nd every year marks the start of Earth Day, a day that is celebrated annually to raise awareness about our home planet and how we can save it from being damaged.
①Green-up your home
This is one of the most common things that people do whenever Earth Day rolls around, that is, switch off(關(guān)閉) their lights. Conserve(節(jié)約) energy by switching off all power or electricity points whenever they are not in use. In addition, take out all the plugs from plug points even after switching them off.

Cars, being the greatest source of air pollution, can be left at home this weekend. Other greener choices are carpooling, riding a bike or you can also walk if you want a healthier choice and if your workplace is not that far away from your home.
③Be a little dirty
No, we don't mean it 'that way'. We simply mean to say, don't take a bath. Yes, conservation of water is super essential. A day or two without a bath won't harm you, but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet. A daily shower isn't a matter of health; it's a matter of comfort.
The future of our planet is in your hands!
A. Started in the year 1970, Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 190 countries each year.
B. Showering every day can wash away the natural oils that our skin and hair need.
C. Do something every day that will improve your surroundings to make the planet a better place to live in.
D. Traveling via public transport is the better choice.
E. Leave your cars at home.
F. Below, we have made a list of things you can do to celebrate Earth Day.
G. However, this is not something you should do just for a day or for only an hour.

【答案】F;G;E;D;B
【解析】四月二十二日是世界地球日,這一天我們要記住保護(hù)我們賴以生存的家園,要用實(shí)際行動(dòng)來(lái)保護(hù),如節(jié)約用電,節(jié)約用水,選擇健康的乘車方式等。
①F考查對(duì)上下文語(yǔ)境的理解?涨暗囊馑际牵哼@一天我們記得我們的地球,記得怎么樣去保護(hù)它。所以 這里選F (我們可以做下面這些事情來(lái)慶祝地球日。)與上下文一致。
②G考查對(duì)上下文語(yǔ)境的理解?涨暗囊馑际牵宏P(guān)掉燈;空后一句的意思是:關(guān)閉所有的不用的能源和電。所以這里選G (然而,這不是你僅僅做一天或者幾個(gè)小時(shí)的事情。)與上下文一致。
③E考查對(duì)上下文語(yǔ)境的理解?蘸蟮囊馑际牵很囀强諝馕廴镜淖畲蟮脑颉K赃@里選E (把車砍在家里。)與上下文一致。

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
B
Our risk of cancer rises as we age. So it makes sense that the elderly should be routinely screened for new tumors(腫瘤)—or doesn't it?
While such careful tracking of cancer is a good thing in general, researchers are increasingly questioning whether all of this testing is necessary for the elderly. With the percentage of people over age 65 expected to nearly double by 2050, it's important to consider the health benefits of screening and the costs of routine testing.
In many cases, screening can lead to additional operations to remove cancer, which can cause side effects, while the cancers themselves may be slow-growing and may not cause serious health problems in patients' remaining years. But the message that everyone must screen for cancer has become so ingrained that when health care experts recommended that women under 50 and over 74 stop screening for breast cancer, it caused a strong reaction among doctors, patients and advocacy(擁護(hù)) groups.
It's hard to uproot deeply held beliefs about cancer screening with scientific data. Certainly, there are people over age 75 who have had cancers detected by routine screening, and gained several extra years of life because of treatment. And clearly, people over age 75 who have other risk factors for cancer, such as a family history, should continue to get screened regularly. But for the remainder, the risk of cancer, while increased at the end of life, must be balanced with other factors like a remaining life expectancy.
A recent study suggests that doctors start to make more right decisions about who will truly benefit from screening—especially considering the explosion of the elderly.
It's not an easy guess to make, but one that makes sense for the whole patient. Dr. Otis Brawley said, "Many doctors are ordering these tests purely to protect themselves against medical disputes(糾紛). We need to think about the good use of health care and stop talking about the rationing(定量配給制) of health care."
That means making some difficult decisions with elderly patients and going against the misguided belief that when it comes to health care, more is always better.
(1)Some researchers now think that routine cancer screening for the elderly .
A.adds too much to their medical bills
B.helps contribute to a long life
C.can prevent tumor growth
D.is not always necessary
(2)The underlined word "ingrained" in Paragraph 3 most probably means "".
A.important
B.reliable
C.precious
D.deep-rooted
(3)According to Dr. Otis Brawley, why do many doctors recommend routine screening for cancer?
A.Because they want to get more money from the health care system.
B.Because they want to perform their normal duties actively.
C.Because they want to avoid possible trouble.
D.Because they want their patients to suffer less.
(4)What does the author mainly argue for?
A.Screening tests must be effective and dependable.
B.Old people should be careful about routine cancer screening.
C.Screening increases the chances of detecting certain cancers earlier.
D.Whether old people should go for cancer screening should follow rules.

【題目】There is no doubt that obesity is one of the biggest problems that many men and women of all ages suffer from. Although everybody wants to lose weight quickly, burning fat is no easy task. Here are a few tips on weight loss. Don’t expect to just read these tips and expect to lose weight while you sleep. 1

It is very important to drink a lot of water while reducing the use of salt. 2

Try not to eat the foods that contain high amounts of fat and instead focus on eating foods rich in fiber.

3 This is the best way to lose weight, as playing a sport can give a person a sense of confidence.

Avoid taking medicines that help reduce your appetite, as they usually have many side effects and can do you more harm than good. Also, you shouldn’t follow unusual diets such as those that focus on drinking large amounts of vitamin-concentrated liquids and the like. 4

Finally, everyone should know and understand that obesity will eventually lead to bigger and more dangerous diseases and conditions, so it is best for us to stay fit before we gain weight while we still have a chance. 5 It’s better for you to take things slowly and start with losing just a few pounds a month and then increasing that.

A. Just stick to the most popular diets.

B. It will take a lot of effort on your part to succeed.

C. Exercise consistently while you’re on a diet.

D. Salt tends to store water in the body leading to weight again.

E. And in case you feel hungry you should eat low-calories foods.

F. Also, make sure you don’t work on reducing too much weight too fast.

G. When in doubt, don’t be afraid to ask your doctor for recommendations.

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
C
Every small child knows the panic of losing sight of its mother in the supermarket, and as these delightful pictures show, small whales obviously feel the same way.
Taken by a British diver who was following the sperm whale(抹香鯨) calf, they show the minute the baby - who had lost track of its mum-found her again in the sea off the Azores.
Soaring 30ft across the waves, the newborn slammed(猛力推)its body onto the water with joy after becoming separated from its family group in the chilly(寒冷的)waters.
But the whale calf was doing more than just jumping for joy.
British biologist and dive guide Justin Hart, 44, who took the pictures, says that young whales communicate with older ones in the ocean by creating a slamming sound which travels through the water to the ears of the adults deep below.
By leaping out of the water and slamming its 12ft long body onto the surface of the sea up to 30 times, the baby whale is telling its relatives where it is so they can regroup.
He said: “We had been following the sperm whale calf for most of the day. Sperm whales, of all the whales and dolphins, are the species that dive the deepest and for the longest time.”
“The calves have to follow what’s going on below them from the surface as best they can probably listening to the echo location(回聲定位)clicks of the adults.”
“However, sometimes the adults re-surface far out of sight of the calf, and in this situation the whales often leap out of the water causing a large bang as their bodies hit the surface. In this way, the whale family could regroup.”
He added: “When I took the photo, two adults’ females had just resurfaced and the calf quite literally began jumping for joy.”
Mr. Hart captured the rare image four miles from the port of Lajes do Pico while he was working as a crewman on an underwater documentary with special license to film sperm whales in the area.
Sperm whales live in nearly all the world's oceans in groups of about 15 to 20 animals and they practice communal(集體的) childcare. The calves do not have to follow their mother too closely as sperm whales can take milk from any milk-producing female in its social group.
(1)The underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 probably refers to _____.
A.the whales
B.the divers
C.the photos
D.the mothers
(2)According to Justin Hart, the young sperm whale ____.
A.found its family with his help
B.suffered a lot in the cold waters
C.lost contact with its family for days
D.slammed as a means of communication
(3)What do we know about sperm whales?
A.The young are independent.
B.They are highly social animals.
C.They tend to live in warm sea waters.
D.Females take turns to care for babies.
(4)What would be the best title for the text?
A.Baby whales perform slamming with joy
B.Sperm whales -- fairly intelligent animals
C.Lost sperm whale baby reunited with its family
D.Slamming-- a way of communication among whales
