【1】A

【3】F

【5】C

【解析】

本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了“枕頭戰(zhàn)”這個(gè)比賽項(xiàng)目的起源，規(guī)則和前景。

【1】根據(jù)第一自然段首句中的Pillow fighting in its natural state is a display of chaos, a safe-ish outlet to most children.可知，枕頭大戰(zhàn)在其自然狀態(tài)下是一種混亂的表現(xiàn)，對(duì)大多數(shù)孩子來(lái)說(shuō)是一種安全的發(fā)泄方式。由此可知，枕頭戰(zhàn)是自然狀態(tài)中的游戲，沒(méi)有比賽規(guī)則的。故選A。

【2】根據(jù)上一句Before the match begins, all team members pretend to sleep beneath the quilt on individual futons (墊子).(比賽開(kāi)始前，所有隊(duì)員都要假裝睡在各自的蒲團(tuán)上)及下一句They cross the dividing line, grabbing a pillow as they go.(他們?cè)竭^(guò)了分界線(xiàn)，一邊走一邊抓著一個(gè)枕頭)可知，此處指比賽開(kāi)始。由此可知，G選項(xiàng)When the referee blows the whistle，the players leap to their feet.(裁判吹哨子，比賽選手立刻站起來(lái))符合文意。故選G。

【3】本句是主旨句，根據(jù)本段下文的描述可知，第三自然段主要介紹了枕頭戰(zhàn)的規(guī)則。由此可知，F選項(xiàng)The rules in this competitive game are not complicated.(這種競(jìng)賽的規(guī)則并不復(fù)雜) 符合文意。故選F。

【4】根據(jù)后一句The youngest player so far recorded was 9，the eldest 75.可知，目前記錄中最年輕的選手是9歲，最年長(zhǎng)的75歲。由此可知，B選項(xiàng)There are no age restrictions.(沒(méi)有年齡限制)符合文意。故選B。

【5】根據(jù)空前No word yet on its Olympics prospects. But with skateboarding officially in可知，盡管還沒(méi)有只言片語(yǔ)談到枕頭戰(zhàn)的奧運(yùn)前景，但是滑板已正式列為奧運(yùn)項(xiàng)目，想必枕頭戰(zhàn)應(yīng)該也不會(huì)太遠(yuǎn)了吧。故選C。

【題目】Particulate Matter

There are things floating around in the air. Most of them, you can not even see. They are a kind of air pollution called particles or particulate matter. In fact, particulate matter may be the air pollutant that most commonly affects people’s health.

Have a Look.

Particles can come in almost any shape or size, and can be solid particles or liquid droplets.【1】 These two groups differ in many ways. One of the differences is size, we call the bigger particles PM 10 and we call the smaller particles PM 2.5.

BIG.

The big particles are between 2.5 and 10 micrometers (from about 25 to 100 times thinner than a human hair). These particles are called PM 10 (we say ―PM ten, which stands for Particulate Matter up to 10 micrometers in size).【2】

SMALL.

The small particles are smaller than 2.5 micrometers (100 times thinner than a human hair).【3】We say ―PM two point five, as in Particulate Matter up to 2.5 micrometers in size.The smaller particles are lighter and they stay in the air longer and travel farther. PM 10 particles can stay in the air for minutes or hours while PM 2.5 particles can stay in the air for days or weeks.And travel? 【4】 PM 2.5 particles go even farther; many hundreds of miles.

Particulate Matter and Your Health.

When you breathe, you take in the air along with any particles in the air, like heavy metal sand cancer causing organic compounds. Both PM 10 and PM 2.5 particles can cause health problems, specifically respiratory (呼吸的) health.【5】 Exposure to particulate matter leads to increased use of medication and more visits to the doctor or emergency room.

A.These particles are called PM 2.5.

B.We divide particles into two major groups.

C.These particles cause less severe health effects.

D.PM 10 particles can travel as much as 30 miles.

E.Air pollution is a growing problem in the whole world.

F.PM 2.5 can have worse health effects than the bigger PM 10.

G.Air pollutants have great effects on our environment and our health.

In late April 2014, a 【1】 (violence) storm swept through the southern United States, destroying more than $ 1 billion in property and killing 35 people.

When a lion was asleep, a little mouse began running up and down beside him. This soon wakes up the lion. He was very angry, and caught the mouse in his paws.

"Forgive me, please." cried the little mouse. "I may be some use to you someday." The lion was amusing at these words. He thought, "What could this little mouse help me?" However, he lifted up her paws, allows him to get away.

A few days later on, the lion was caught in a trap. The hunters wanted to take him live to the king, so they tied him to a tree and went away to look for a truck.

Just then a little mouse passed by, and saw the lion, who were lying in despair. He went up to him, and soon chewed away the ropes. "Was I not right?" asked the little mouse.
