Question

14．Trees are useful to man in three important ways：they give him wood and other useful things，they give him cool places，and they help to stop drought and flood．
  Unluckily，in many parts of the world，man has not found that the third of these points is the most important．Man wants to make money from trees，so he has cut them down in large numbers，only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had．And also，he is usually too careless to plant and look after new trees．So the forests slowly disappear．
  This does not only mean that man will have fewer trees．The results are even worse：for where there are trees，their roots break up soil---make the rain in---and also bind the soil，thus stopping it from being washed away easily； but where there are no trees，the rain falls on hard ground and flows away，causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil．When all the top-soil is gone，nothing is left but useless desert．

Answer 1

分析 本文反映了樹(shù)木給人類帶來(lái)的益處和亂砍亂伐樹(shù)木所帶來(lái)的危害，旨在告誡人們不要亂砍亂伐．

解答 21．B．細(xì)節(jié)題：從第一段的句子：They provide him with wood and other products； they provide him shade；．a(chǎn)nd they help to prevent droughts（早災(zāi)）and floods．樹(shù)木可以提供木材和其他產(chǎn)品，防旱防澇，可知答案是B．
22．C．細(xì)節(jié)題：文章第二段段意可知關(guān)于森林的消失提到ABD的內(nèi)容都是原因，故選C．
23．D．細(xì)節(jié)題：從第三段的內(nèi)容：but where there are no trees，the rain falls on hard ground and flows away，causing floods and carrying away the rich top-soil．When the top-soil is gone，nothing remains but worthless desert．可知沒(méi)有大樹(shù)，表層泥土就會(huì)流失，導(dǎo)致沙漠的形成．選D．
24．D．主旨題：從第一段的主題句：Trees are useful to man in three important ways：可知是講-樹(shù)和人類的關(guān)系．選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本篇文章都是細(xì)節(jié)推理題，答題的已給選項(xiàng)也一般不會(huì)和短文相關(guān)詞語(yǔ)完全相同，需要考生自己理解句子，延伸推理出題目答案，比一般細(xì)節(jié)理解題偏難．
