    Cleaning up the existing damage to our environment and preventing further destruction may be a huge job. It can seem like there is no way one person, especially a young person, can make a difference. But you can make a difference, starting with changing some simple everyday habits and working with others to spread the word about the importance of protecting the environment.

    Take shorter showers. Yes, everyone wants to look and smell his best, but how many washes do you really need? A dripping faucet can waste 3,000 gallons a year, about the same amount you can save by halving your daily shower time. ①___________

    ②___________ The animals that gave their all to become your hamburger require much more space, energy, and five times more water than the stars of a meatless dish. You don't necessarily have to become vegetarian just for this reason, but eating less meat will probably do your body good while it helps the planet anyway.

    Ride your bike or walk instead of driving. ③___________ Yes, every teen looks forward to a driver's license and a first car, but automobiles are one of the primary causes of air pollution. When pedal power won't cut it, take the bus or carpool.

    ④___________ There are many national organizations devoted to protecting endangered species, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, preserving clean water supplies, and so on. But there are also probably local environmental groups doing things like planting native trees or setting up hard-to-recycle pickups in your own neighborhood.

    Don't be afraid to lead. Regardless of what some adults may think, teens can have great ideas too. When you have one, put your youthful energy to good use. Your idea might be as simple as a neighborhood, clean-up day, but go for it. Pass out flyers. ⑤___________ Round up your buddy's garage band and turn it into a block party at the end of the day.

    A. Eat less meat. 

    B. That's no drop in the bucket! 

    C. It is much more fuel-efficient. 

    D. Join an environmental group.

    E. Ask local businesses to donate supplies.

    F. Call on local people to take actions at once.

    G. Pay attention to what you are eating at present.

    The wildfires damaging parts of Australia can be seen from space in new satellite images released by NASA. Australia's capital, Canberra, was enveloped in a smoky haze Sunday and air quality at midday was measured at 10 times the usual dangerous limit. The damaging fires have killed at least 24 people in Australia and destroyed almost 2,000 homes. The early and damaging start to Australia's summer wildfires, fed by drought and the country's hottest and driest year on record, has also been catastrophic(灾难性的) for the country's wildlife, likely killing nearly 500 million birds, reptiles and mammals in New South Wales alone, Sydney University ecologist Chris Dickman told The Sydney Morning Herald.

    Under such extreme conditions, the fires have been generating enough heat to create their own weather systems, including fire-generated thunderstorms and fire tornadoes. Thousands of firefighters continued to fight the flames that have burned millions of acres in New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia, an area twice the size of Maryland. In New South Wales, the Rural Fire Service (RFS) said as of Sunday there were 150 fires active in the state, 64 of them uncontrolled.

    On Saturday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced that, for the first time in Australian history, 3,000 army, navy and air force reservists (预备役军人) will battle against the fires. He also committed $14 million to hiring fire-fighting aircraft from overseas. On Sunday, cooler temperatures and lighter winds brought some relief to threatened communities, a day after thousands of people were forced to escape as flames reached the suburban areas of Sydney. Thousands of firefighters fought to contain the fires, but many fires continued to burn out of control, threatening to wipe out rural townships and causing almost incalculable damage to property and wildlife.

1. What does the underlined phrase "fed by" in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. Be given food by someone. B. Be strengthened by something.

C. Be destroyed by something. D. In the control of something.

2. Why were there thunderstorms and tornadoes?

A. The fires generated thunderstorms and tornadoes.

B. There was rainy weather.

C. The fires generated enough heat to create extreme weather.

D. The weather systems are easy to change.

3. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Many soldiers will fight against the fires as they have done before.

B. Fires were controlled due to cooler temperatures and lighter winds.

C. A lot of people moved out of the suburban areas.

D. The damage to property and wildlife is limited.

4. What would be the best title for this passage?

A. Australia's Destructive Wildfires

B. Soldiers Fought Against the Fires

C. Wildlife Died From the Fires

D. Australia's Wildfires Were Under Control

答案以及解析

一、填空

1.答案：by

解析：句意为:员工的数量从1,000增加到1,200,上涨20%。介词by表示变化或差异的程度,故此处填by。

2.答案：to/towards

解析： 句意为:我认为负责人对这个项目的态度会决定我们下一步怎么做。attitude 意为“态度”,后面加介词to/towards,表示“对……的态度”。

3.答案：in

4.答案：a

5.答案：of

6.答案：from

7.答案：to

8.答案：contribution

9.答案：have

10.答案：annually

解析：句意为:2019年投入使用的北京新国际机场每年为7,200万乘客提供服务。设空处作时间状语,应填副词annually,意为“一年一度地”。

二、七选五

答案：BACDE
解析：①根据空格前面的"A dripping faucet can waste 3,000 gallons a year, about the same amount you can save by halving your daily shower time."可知,这里谈论水的浪费,故选B项。

②根据本段中的"eating less meat"可知选A项。

③根据前面的"Ride your bike or walk instead of driving."可知应选C项。

④结合后面的"organizations"和"environmental groups"可知应选D项。

⑤根据空格前面的"When you have one, put your youthful energy to good use. Your idea might be as simple as a neighborhood clean-up day, but go for it. Pass out flyers."可知应选E项。

三、阅读理解

答案：1-4 BCCA

解析：1.词义猜测题。根据第一段中的 The early start of Australia's summer wildfires, fed by drought and the country's hottest and driest year on record, has also been catastrophic for the country's wildlife可知， fed by后给出的是干旱和高温干燥两个气候因素，根据常识可知，这些因素会助长火势，由此可推断，B项“被某物加强”与fed by的意思相近。故选B项。

2.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句 Under such extreme conditions, the fires have been generating enough heat to create their own weather systems, including fire-generated thunderstorms and fire tornadoes.可知，在如此极端的条件下，大火已经产生了足够的热量来形成自己的天气系统，包括由大火引起的雷暴和火焰龙卷风。由此可知，大火产生的热量催生了一些极端天气。故选C项。

3.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的 On Sunday, cooler temperatures and lighter winds brought some relief to threatened communities, a day after thousands of people were forced to escape as flames reached the suburban areas of Sydney.可知，受到大火威胁悉尼郊区的人们已经被迫撒离了，C项中的 moved out与文章中的 escape相呼应。故选C项。

4.主旨大意题。第一段第一句 The wildfires damaging parts of Australia can be seen from space in new satellite images released by NASA.（在美国国家航空航天局最新公布的卫星图像中，可以从太空中看到破坏澳大利亚部分地区的森林大火）引出文章主题，下文都是围绕这场造成巨大破坏的澳大利亚大火展开，故A项“澳大利亚毁灭性的大火”最适合作本文标题。
