【題目】 Throughout Europe golf has been popular for many years. A recent report says that in Great Britain alone, 700 new golf courses (球場) will have to be built over the next ten years to satisfy people’s demand.

This is all good news for golf lovers, but it worries those who want to protect the environment. Their argument is that the new courses are disturbing the balance of nature. Woods, ponds and fields are being dug up to make way for the courses. The birds and animals that used to live there are being killed or forced to leave. The amount of water that a club uses to keep its course in good condition is reducing the amount of water available for industrial and other uses. The chemicals used to control insects are sinking into the underground water.

There may be some truth in this, but it is not the whole truth. The days are long past when building of any kind was allowed in beautiful places with no thought for the environment. Planning permission, nowadays, is as strict for golf courses as it is for any other type of development. Before any such project is given the go-ahead, many factors are studied. It is only when it is clear that no harm will be done to the area that the builders are allowed to move in.

A strong case can even be made that golf courses are actually good for the areas where they are built. Courses are built in areas which are not areas of natural beauty. The new courses often make the area livelier. To make holes more difficult, trees are planted and lakes are filled in around greens. Not surprisingly perhaps, it is not unusual to find that, within months of a course being completed, a whole variety of animals and birds have moved in.

Obviously, careful thought has to go into the design of the new courses. As few changes as possible should be made to the natural environment. The wild-life and woods should also be protected. But this can be, and is being, done. There is no reason why golfers and nature cannot live peacefully together.

【1】What is TRUE about building a new golf course nowadays?

A.It takes up too much land.

B.A lot of trees have to be cut down.

C.It is easy to get planning taken into consideration.

D.Many things will be taken into consideration.

【2】What can we infer from Paragraph 4?

A.That a whole variety of animals and birds have moved in the courses is uncommon.

B.Only when it is clear that no harm will be done to the area, are the builders allowed to move in.

C.Golf courses could make local areas look beautiful.

D.Golf courses’ construction wastes too much water and money.

【3】Which of the following shows the structure (結(jié)構(gòu)) of the text? (P=paragraph)

A.B.

C.D.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】C

【3】B

【解析】

這是一篇議論文。高爾夫運(yùn)動多年來一直很受歡迎，最近的一份報告稱，僅在英國，為了滿足人們的需求，在未來10年內(nèi)就必須建造700座新的高爾夫球場。這對高爾夫愛好者來說是個好消息，但也讓那些想要保護(hù)環(huán)境的人感到擔(dān)憂。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中Obviously, careful thought has to go into the design of the new courses. As few changes as possible should be made to the natural environment. The wild-life and woods should also be protected. 顯然，新球場的設(shè)計必須經(jīng)過深思熟慮。應(yīng)該盡可能少地改變自然環(huán)境。野生動物和森林也應(yīng)該得到保護(hù)�？芍�，建高爾夫球場，許多事情都要考慮到。故選D項。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中Courses are built in areas which are not areas of natural beauty. The new courses often make the area livelier…. it is not unusual to find that, within months of a course being completed, a whole variety of animals and birds have moved in. 球場建在非自然美的地方。新的球場常常使這個地區(qū)更有生氣……在球場完成后的幾個月內(nèi)，各種各樣的動物和鳥類都搬進(jìn)來了�？芍�，新球場會使得當(dāng)?shù)氐沫h(huán)境更加美麗。故選C項。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中This is all good news for golf lovers, but it worries those who want to protect the environment.可知這句話表明了文章有兩種對新球場態(tài)度；第二段中Their argument is that the new courses are disturbing the balance of nature.可知這段表明了不贊成修建新球場的態(tài)度。根據(jù)第三段中There may be some truth in this, but it is not the whole truth. 第四段中A strong case can even be made that golf courses are actually good for the areas where they are built.最后一段中Obviously, careful thought has to go into the design of the new courses. As few changes as possible should be made to the natural environment.可知這三段是層層推進(jìn)論證說明修建新球場的好處。因此，本篇文章結(jié)構(gòu)應(yīng)該是總-分-分式。故選B項。

【題目】 Grandma Pugh sized up the baby like a pig at the farmers’ market. There was a pause and then she pronounced. “He’s got nice long legs.” She clapped her hands once in approval. But then she frowned and leaned forward. Everyone waited anxiously. The baby had opened his eyes and was staring up. “But those cross eyes won’t do,” she declared firmly, shaking her head in disappointment.

That had been Freddie Pilcher’s first meeting with Grandma Pugh. Since then, ten years had passed. Much to his grandmother’s satisfaction, she’d been proven right about the boy’s legs. He was a regular beanpole. Grandma Pugh had also been correct about his eyes. Freddie had been wearing glasses to correct his vision since he was two years old. His current pair was thick, and cheap-looking, but at least he could see.

Freddie not only had poor eyesight, but he was also clumsy. He wasn’t good at schoolwork either. But there was one thing that the boy was good at and it was all on account of the length of his legs. He could jump.

Freddie was the best jumper in school. Not only could he leap the furthest but also the highest. At break times, he entertained the little ones by leaping over the school wall into Mrs. Hobson’s garden and then rapidly jumping back. She had been up to see the head teacher several times because somebody had been crushing her vegetables.

It was badgers (獾), Freddie suggested, when questioned by Miss Harpy—definitely badgers; no doubt about it. His dad had terrible problems with badgers. Only last week he had lost two rows of carrots. Freddie had woken one night and heard them tearing through the garden, a whole herd of them. They rooted up the lawn and dug up the vegetables. Terrible things, badgers. All the other children nodded their heads wisely. There was a moment’s pause in Class Three as everyone thought about the dreadful damage that badgers could do.

【1】What do we know about Grandma Pugh?

A.She was present at the birth of baby Freddie.

B.She was unwilling to listen to the ideas of others.

C.She valued physical appearance over all other things.

D.She was a figure of great importance in the family.

【2】Which of the following best describes Freddie’s physical appearance?

A.B.

C.D.

【3】Why does Freddie talk about badgers in the final paragraph?

A.To explain the cause of the damage.

B.To warn the class about their danger.

C.To make up an excuse for the cause of the damage.

D.To describe what happened to his father’s garden.

【題目】 A good advertisement will draw customer’s attention towards your product. That is what every business really wants, in addition to your actually buying their product. In this article we will round up several great ads that cover many different styles but all have one thing in common, that is they connect to their audience.

King Oscar: Open

This ad puts forward an idea that King Oscar's fish products are as fresh as they can possibly get. This idea is then realized by combining a fish and one of their canned products showing the customer they will be buying a fish straight from the ocean. This simplistic image gives off just enough to tell the consumer what the deal is with their product.

Panasonic 3D TV: Dino

Here is another ad that has a lot going on but still is able to get its message across fairly easily. We will first notice the dinosaur in the mess living room but then see the girl pointing at the TV, which will give us the impression that Panasonic's 3D televisions are extremely realistic. The great art direction leads to the customer understanding what product is on display almost immediately.

Pepsi: Straws

This clever Pepsi ad conveys a lot to the customer; at first glance it gives the impression that Pepsi is the preferred choice of even the straws(吸管). And then after that it makes fun of Coca Cola by using their red and white colors for the other can as well as their classic design. This is a very clever ad on many levels.

Canal+: iPhone Titanic

This ad may take a bit more time to understand but the design itself can keep a customer interested. The large finger and the iPhone in the corner can quickly help the viewer connect the dots with the sinking Titanic ship and show that we can have all our favorite movies right on our iPhones.

【1】What is the common feature of great advertisements?

A.They involve many different styles.

B.They will draw every business’attention.

C.They can attract customers and touch them.

D.They make comparison between products.

B.It conveys a lot to the customers.

The “24 solar terms” originated and was firstly used in China. It was created thousands years ago on the basis of practical needs of agriculture. Ancient Chinese people used it to guide agriculture production, special climate signs and even healthy living tips. Last year, the 24 solar terms was added to UNESCO's world intangible cultural heritage list. Now, it has been brought to life thanks to a creative designer from Southwest China's Guizhou province.

The 24 solar items is a deeply mooted concept that encapsulates the essence of Chinese wisdom. However, only a small portion of people know all the names or the correct order of those terms. My intention is to increase Chinese people's self awareness to learn more about our traditional fine culture. Actually, the 24 solar items work is only a part of my whole design program ‘Charm China', which I started over a year ago.” Shi told China Daily.
