In fact,morning is the best time of a day.In the morning,the air is the freshest and people are usually in the best condition.Many of us may have the experiences that we memorize some things more quickly and correctly in the morning than at any other time of the day.And it is certain that we find it easier to understand what we learn.If we get up early and do some morning exercises or only take a short walk in the morning,without doubt we can build up our bodies and become much healthier.Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early.For example,if everyone in the family gets up early,we will have enough time to prepare the breakfast for the whole family.Children will have enough time to catch the school bus.Everything is in order.However,if we get up late,we’ll probably have to do everything in a hurry.
Let us remember getting up early is a good habit and try our best to keep it.Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of getting up early.They have to make an effort to do so.If we stick to getting up early every day,we will certainly benefit a lot from it.

阅读下面短文,根据内容写一篇60个词左右的内容概要。
For many parents,making sure their children get the right amount of sleep can be difficult,especially in high-pressure situations where students tend to study all night.Unfortunately,it is often counterproductive (适得其反) because with fewer hours to sleep,their brains don’t get enough time to store what they’ve studied the night before.
In her groundbreaking book The Teenage Brain,the neuroscientist Dr Frances Jensen explains that the sleeping time isn’t simply the time for the body to relax and recover after working,studying or playing all day.It is the glue which allows us not only to recollect our experiences but also to remember everything we’ve learned that day.Basically the more we learn,the more we need to sleep.That is why a good sleep is of great importance in achieving success at school.
Then how much sleep do teenagers need?The Austrian Centre for Education in Sleep (ACES) suggests 8 to 10 hours per day for high school adolescents.What happens if they don’t get enough sleep?According to ACES,poor sleep will have all sorts of negative effects on teenagers,including rises in blood pressure,mood swings and impatient behaviors. Without adequate sleep the focus and attention drift,which will make it harder to receive information.The brain can no longer perform a function to deal with information properly and access previously learned information.
So,how can parents help?If you think your child needs more sleep,try making gradual changes to their sleeping habits.Small increases have been proved effective in changing sleep patterns.And remember your children are going through a period of their lives when their brains and bodies are going through a lot of changes.Your job is to help make changes and go through the period with them.It may not be easy,but they will thank you for it eventually.

阅读理解
A
For many people who live in cities,parks are an important part of the landscape.They provide a place for people to relax and play sports,as well as a shelter from the often severe environment of a city.What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.
One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen,which humans need to breathe.According to one study,an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving.Parks also make cities cooler.Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect:building materials such as metal and concrete (混凝土) absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release (释放) it much more quickly than organic surfaces like trees and grass.Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials,cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas.Parks and other green spaces help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect.
Unfortunately,many cities cannot easily create more parks because most land is already being used for buildings,roads,parking lots,and other essential parts of the urban environment.However,cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space:rooftop gardens.While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof,human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years.Some rooftop gardens are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment (投资) of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.
Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban parks and garden spaces,but without taking up the much-needed land.In the summer,rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun,which can significantly reduce cooling bills.In the winter,gardens help control the heat that materials like brick and concrete release so quickly,leading to savings on heating bills.Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city settlers,making their diets healthier.Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy,they are also a smart environmental investment.
1.The underlined word “emits” in the second paragraph probably means “ ”.
A.carries away
B.takes up
C.gives out
D.breathes in
2.Which of the following contributes to the Urban Heat Island Effect?
A.More building materials.
B.More trees and grass.
C.More parking lots.
D.More rooftop gardens.
3.When it comes to rooftop gardens,what can be inferred from the passage?
A.They make people much happier.
B.They provide more benefits than urban parks.
C.They help to save money and keep a healthy diet.
D.They have become very popular in recent years.
4.What’s the author’s attitude towards rooftop gardens?
A.Sceptical.
B.Supportive.
C.Critical.
D.Objective.

答案及剖析:
1.C 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词义的能力。根据句子叙述可知,1英亩地的树木可以吸收的二氧化碳量等同于行驶11000英里的汽车排放的二氧化碳的量,由此可以推测emit应为“放出”之意,故选C项。
2.A 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第二段中的“Scientists have long noted what is called... and grass.”可知,诸如金属、混凝土之类的建筑材料与城市热岛效应有关,故选A项。
3.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第四段中的“In the summer,rooftop gardens ... heating bills.”可知,房顶花园可以起到节能的效果,故选C项。
4.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息对作者态度进行推断归纳的能力。根据第四段第一句“Rooftop gardens provide ... much-needed land.”和最后两句“Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can ... environmental investment.”可知,作者叙述了房顶花园的好处,由此可以看出作者对rooftop gardens是支持的,故选B项。
B
A year ago,I decided to create a more environmentally friendly kitchen,focusing on reducing the single-use products such as plastic bags and paper towels.I’m not going to sugarcoat my experience.It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits.In creating my kitchen,I tried a lot of different alternative products and some plain old common sense;the result,however,has been worth the effort.I’m recycling more and relying less on single-use products and I’m saving money,too.
I’m not kidding when I say that I used to really love plastic storage bags,so this was,perhaps,the biggest challenge for me.Switching to reusable storage bags is a financial investment,but the cost is reasonable considering that I previously spent at least $100 annually on single-use plastic bags and wrap.I will check online periodically for recycling updates,where a zero-waste box for kitchen items is offered,from party supplies to mixed-material food containers.
I’m a clean freak (怪人) and used to go through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis,but it’s easy enough to take old T-shirts or towels and cut them up to use to wipe down surfaces.I’m also a fan of bamboo paper towels,which have the look and feel of traditional paper towels,yet are made from a highly renewable source and also break down in just 45 days.Better yet,they can be reused up to 100 times.As for kitchen sponges(海绵擦),I keep an eye out for those made with natural and recyclable materials.
When purchasing household items online,I will ask to have them shipped in as few boxes as possible or as small a box as possible if a single item is to be sent.I’ll let the company know that they should pay more attention to how it is packaging items for delivery.
5.What is the author’s main purpose of creating her kitchen?
A.To save money.
B.To reduce waste and recycle more.
C.To change her long-held habits.
D.To make it cleaner and more practical.
6.What does the underlined word “sugarcoat” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Make attractive. B.Get interested.
C.Show off. D.Give up.
7.In creating her kitchen,what does the author do?
A.Begins to recycle more single-use plastic bags.
B.Goes through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis.
C.Checks online periodically to buy zero-waste box.
D.Chooses to use the recyclable or reusable kitchen items.
8.What can we learn about the author from the text?
A.She has strong environmental awareness.
B.She is used to traditional paper towels.
C.She has a good knowledge of financial investment.
D.She prefers to have her purchases packed in small boxes.
语篇导读:这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了作者为了减少一次性产品的使用,而建了一个环保厨房,并且改变了自己很多生活习惯,使用更环保的产品。阅读本文,有利于增强学生的环保意识。
答案及剖析:
5.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的第一句可知,作者创建厨房的主要目的是减少浪费并循环利用更多物品。故选B。
6.A 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词义的能力。根据第一段中的“It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits.”可知,作者建环保厨房,改变一个长期的生活习惯是她自己承诺和心甘情愿的,而并不是让自己的经历变得更有吸引力。因此可推断sugarcoat意为“使……有吸引力”。故选A。
7.D 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的“I tried a lot of different alternative products... and I’m saving money,too.”可知,在创建厨房时,作者选择了可循环利用或可多次使用的厨房用品,故选D。
8.A 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据第一段的内容可知,作者为了减少一次性产品的使用,而建了一个环保厨房,所以从文中我们可知作者是一个环保意识很强的人,故选A。

W:When we arrived in London,we were two hours late because our train had been held up by the bad weather.Outside the station it was snowing hard and there was a long queue of people waiting for taxis.We got worried that we couldn't find a hotel.As we were about to join the queue of people waiting for taxis,a young man pulled up in his car and asked us where we wanted to go.The car was new and the young man looked clean and respectable,so we decided to accept his offer.When we told him that we didn't have a hotel,he said he could take us to the nearest one which was clean and cheap.
He put our luggage in the boot and we drove off to the hotel.We could hardly believe our luck.When we got to the hotel,he told us that he would wait while we checked in.After we had found out that the hotel was full,we went down the steps only to find that our driver had disappeared with our luggage.We were so upset.

All of us spend a large part of our lives at home—eating,sleeping,relaxing and communicating with our family members.Our home is a shelter for us,away from the noisy,busy,and polluted world outside—a place where we can let down our hair and dress casually.Eco-friendliness(环保) is a hot word today and we all know we should make our environment as eco-friendly as possible.This is not only good for our health,but also good for the outward environment.Here are some easy and helpful tips to make your home eco-friendly.
Kitchen
Plan the kitchen to be bright and airy so that you don't have to turn on the lights at daytime.Don't make wasteful use of the gas.Keep all ingredients for cooking ready before lighting the gas.Turn it to low when not required—always using it on “high” burns a lot of gas.
Indoor plants
Plants are extremely eco-friendly and can be used to make your home look lively.Apart from adding life to home,they give out O2,thus making the air inside fresh.You can keep plants in your home,but be sure to show them some sunlight regularly.Also,if they are kept outside,clean their leaves with a wet cloth,as dust may be added to them.A home decorated(装饰)with plants looks attractive.Plants are natural home decorative gifts that show concern about the environment.A green plant is a wonderful gift which will protect the earth and is sure to be appreciated.
Saving water
Most of the time,we take water for granted—we keep water running while brushing our teeth or washing clothes.Needless to say,this is a huge waste of natural resources(资源).Try to recycle water.For example,the water used for washing vegetables can be used for watering plants;the soapy water used for washing clothes can be used to clean the bathroom and kitchen.
24.Why is the importance of our home discussed in Paragraph 1?
A.To advise us to communicate more with our family members.
B.To show it's necessary to make our home eco-friendly.
C.To advise us to spend more time staying at home.
D.To show the outside world is noisy and polluted.
25.What is advised to be done in the kitchen?
A.To open the window.
B.To prepare simple meals.
C.To save energy.
D.To turn down lights.
26.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.We don't realise the importance of water.
B.We try our best not to waste water.
C.We don't use water frequently.
D.We make full use of water.
27.Which could be the best title for the text?
A.Live a relaxing life.
B.Create a clean and safe home.
C.Our home is a shelter for us.
D.Make your home eco-friendly.

C
Eco-friendly Vauban,lied in the southwest part of Germany,has
everything—tree-lined streets,perfect houses—but it's missing one urban feature of the last 100 years or so:the car.And Vauban residents don't mind one bit.Vauban doesn't ban cars entirely.Rather,it just tries to reduce the use of cars by creating “parking-free” and “car-free” living.In Vauban,cars can only be parked in public parking lots,so living without a car saves residents the cost of parking in the public lot.Cars also are prevented from using certain roads and must stick to strict speed limits.With these limitations,fewer than 20 percent of residents own cars.And now,with a population of 5,500,it's attracting attention from around the world.Can an eco-friendly city like Vauban be a model for people in other countries to stop their over-reliance on the cars?
Sometimes when I watch a news report what's in the back of my mind is what isn't being reported or stressed.While this eco-friendly city is inspiring in that it shows residents getting exercise and fresh air through the majority use of bicycles,as well as good old-fashioned walking,common sense would tell you that even for a place like Vauban,Germany,it owes its existence to the cars.
Do you think that bicycles were able to transport all the construction materials that were needed to build and maintain the eco-friendly homes and businesses in Vauban?It took cars to help build this city.It's one of the paradoxes of life that sometimes in order to get away from relying on something like the car,you actually have to rely on that very thing at the beginning and into the foreseeable future to some degree.
I myself haven't owned a car for more than 14 years,and mostly get around town running,walking,or using public transportation.There are times I wish I had one,since it would make many things easier,but overall I'm glad not to have to deal with the headaches of owning a car,which caused me to get rid of it in the first place.And all the walking and running has helped to keep me fit and healthy.To get even close to being like eco-friendly Vauban,people will need to absolutely change the way they live.Commuting (乘车上下班)patterns will have to change,public transportation will have to be invested in,and so on.And though ending our love affair with the car will be impossible during my lifetime,we may at least start to see more Vauban-like areas in the world.
We can hope that more people will consider using their feet more to get around,cutting down on pollution,and giving themselves some more exercise.
28.Why don't over 80% of the residents in Vauban own car?
A.The streets there are very narrow.
B.There are many limitations on the use of cars.
C.The government limits the number of cars.
D.Most cars belong to their public property.
29.From Paragraph 3 we can know that getting away from cars in cities is .
A.an opposite thing
B.a big shortcoming
C.a great strength
D.a firm base
30.How does the writer feel of not owning a car?
A.Curious. B.Proud.
C.Grateful. D.Regretful.
31.What is the attitude towards most people about the lifestyle according to the writer?
A.Not mentioned.
B.They are not eco-friendly.
C.They have too many cars.
D.They work hard.

Waste sorting is a procedure that involves the separation of waste on purpose into different kinds as defined by the final use for the waste.That is to say this separation of waste is usually aimed at different ends,including for recycling purposes,or even for producing power.As such,the waste sorting could fall into sorts like paper-based materials,plastic-based materials and organic materials.The process could also be started by hand.Indeed,some companies that manage waste have some sorts of waste sorting facilities in place for this aim.
An example of the type of waste sorting that could be observed at the individual level is the common type in cities where various waste bins are set out with clear indications of the type of waste that should be put into them.Some of the waste bins have pictures indicating that only paper should be put into the bins,some are meant for cigarette butts,others for plastics,and the rest could be for any other type of waste.Also,persons at home could begin the process of waste sorting by dividing the waste into various kinds before taking it out.Some companies and government organisations even offer incentives,such as offering some money to consumers in exchange for them bringing in used bottles and plastics.
Some companies have specifically created facilities that are only targeted toward the large-scale application of waste sorting for the purpose of separating the various collected waste into different kinds.
One of the purposes for the application of waste sorting could be for the sake of separating materials for recycling,such as plastics and paper.It could also be for the separation of the waste into the general categories of wet and dry waste.The process could also be for the purpose of sorting commercial waste.With the application,I'm sure it is becoming easier to separate waste.
32.What can we know about waste sorting?
A.It is aimed at producing paper.
B.Its process is started by hand.
C.Its kinds are decided by the final use.
D.Its aim is to recycle waste successfully.
33.What can help the residents sort waste easily?
A.Educating them to know common knowledge.
B.Laying out marked dustbins in the neighborhood.
C.Warning them not to drop rubbish everywhere.
D.Indicating only recycled waste can be collected.
34.What does the underlined word “incentives” mean in the passage?
A.Methods. B.Suggestions.
C.Rewards. D.Solutions.
35.What is the author's attitude towards the application?
A.Doubtful. B.Worried.
C.Indifferent. D.Positive.

阅读下面的短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Be a green child
What does it mean to be green?“Green” is more than just a colour.36. Why green?Plants are green,and without them the Earth wouldn't be such a lovely home for us human beings.What can we do?Here's a four-step guide to being green.
Reduce it!
37. For instance,a shorter shower means you use less water and less fuel since your house uses fuel to run the water heater that warms up the water.
Reuse it!
Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”.It means that we're always throwing away old stuff and buying new stuff.38. For instance,if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop(篮球框),why not give it to another family who has a little kid?
Recycle it!
Recycling has never been easier.Many communities will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require it.Recycled goods go to a recycling centre,where they can be turned into new cans,bottles,and paper.
Enjoy it!
It's true that rubbish and pollution are problems,but the Earth remains a huge and beautiful place that's ready for you to explore.39. Go for a hike,visit local nature centres and gardens,and climb up mountains.
But before you travel the globe,take a look at your own backyard.Is there a spot where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden?40.
A.It also means taking special steps to protect the environment.
B.Many times,even if you no longer need something,someone else just might.
C.You can start locally by visiting the naturally beautiful spots in your city.
D.Turn off the water when you're brushing your teeth.
E.Get out there and get your hands dirty.
F.You can watch with pride as your tree takes root and your garden plants grow.
G.When you use less of something,you do a good thing for the Earth.

40.F 考查学生对平行信息之间的衔接关系的理解能力。上文提出问题“你家后院有能种树或者蔬菜的地方吗”,F项“你可以自豪地看着你种的树生根、园中的植物成长”承接上文,符合语境。

Dear Tom,
How is everything going?I'd like to tell you something about the journey.Before graduation,a journey was organised by our class.
The journey was scheduled for the last Saturday.Some students preferred to take a bus while some were fond of cycling.Also,some insisted that they should walk.Finally,we were persuaded to cycle.
When we arrived there,we found ourselves in its beautiful view.The air there was so good to breathe that we could hardly wait to get close to nature.
It was through the journey that we realised we should care about the environment.By the way,I am visiting you next Friday.
Yours,

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面的短文,根据内容写一篇60个词左右的内容概要。
Every year,especially during the spring and early summer,the lives of many young animals are disrupted.People may attempt to “save” these animals,and more often than not,the mother is nearby.
Young rabbits found at a nest site do not need to be rescued.The mother rabbit will not return as long as a person is standing near the nest site.If you've kicked to open a nest,just replace the top of the nest,and leave.The mother will return and care for the young.Cottontail rabbits leave their young for hours while eating,but they do return to nurse the young,until the young are old enough to survive on their own.Young rabbits are ready to leave the nest at three to four weeks of age when their eyes are open and their bodies are furry.
Young birds are sometimes found on the ground near a nest.When this happens,the best thing to do is to put the bird carefully back into the nest.Don't worry about getting your scent on the bird;it will not affect the mother's care. If you can't reach the nest,leave the bird on the ground.Every bird alive today has spent a few precarious days on the ground while learning to fly.The best thing you can do during this time of year to protect young wildlife is to keep cats indoors.
When young raccoons are found out alone,it is likely that they are merely exploring and their mother is nearby.They are probably old enough to be fully capable of climbing back up a tree to their den.If they were too young to climb,the mother would carry them back.
If you find a young fawn lying alone,leave it there.The mother comes back several times each day to nurse the fawn.If you've already picked the fawn up and brought it home,put it back.Even one or two days after removal from the wild,fawns have been successfully reunited with their mothers,by returning them to the place where they were found.

Getting up early has been regarded as a good habit since ancient times.Many years ago,people thought that if we went to bed early and got up early,we would be energetic the whole day.So,getting up early is of great importance to us all.
In fact,morning is the best time of a day.In the morning,the air is the freshest and people are usually in the best condition.Many of us may have the experiences that we memorize some things more quickly and correctly in the morning than at any other time of the day.And it is certain that we find it easier to understand what we learn.If we get up early and do some morning exercises or only take a short walk in the morning,without doubt we can build up our bodies and become much healthier.Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early.For example,if everyone in the family gets up early,we will have enough time to prepare the breakfast for the whole family.Children will have enough time to catch the school bus.Everything is in order.However,if we get up late,we’ll probably have to do everything in a hurry.
Let us remember getting up early is a good habit and try our best to keep it.Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of getting up early.They have to make an effort to do so.If we stick to getting up early every day,we will certainly benefit a lot from it.

阅读下面短文,根据内容写一篇60个词左右的内容概要。
For many parents,making sure their children get the right amount of sleep can be difficult,especially in high-pressure situations where students tend to study all night.Unfortunately,it is often counterproductive (适得其反) because with fewer hours to sleep,their brains don’t get enough time to store what they’ve studied the night before.
In her groundbreaking book The Teenage Brain,the neuroscientist Dr Frances Jensen explains that the sleeping time isn’t simply the time for the body to relax and recover after working,studying or playing all day.It is the glue which allows us not only to recollect our experiences but also to remember everything we’ve learned that day.Basically the more we learn,the more we need to sleep.That is why a good sleep is of great importance in achieving success at school.
Then how much sleep do teenagers need?The Austrian Centre for Education in Sleep (ACES) suggests 8 to 10 hours per day for high school adolescents.What happens if they don’t get enough sleep?According to ACES,poor sleep will have all sorts of negative effects on teenagers,including rises in blood pressure,mood swings and impatient behaviors. Without adequate sleep the focus and attention drift,which will make it harder to receive information.The brain can no longer perform a function to deal with information properly and access previously learned information.
So,how can parents help?If you think your child needs more sleep,try making gradual changes to their sleeping habits.Small increases have been proved effective in changing sleep patterns.And remember your children are going through a period of their lives when their brains and bodies are going through a lot of changes.Your job is to help make changes and go through the period with them.It may not be easy,but they will thank you for it eventually.

阅读理解
A
For many people who live in cities,parks are an important part of the landscape.They provide a place for people to relax and play sports,as well as a shelter from the often severe environment of a city.What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.
One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen,which humans need to breathe.According to one study,an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving.Parks also make cities cooler.Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect:building materials such as metal and concrete (混凝土) absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release (释放) it much more quickly than organic surfaces like trees and grass.Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials,cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas.Parks and other green spaces help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect.
Unfortunately,many cities cannot easily create more parks because most land is already being used for buildings,roads,parking lots,and other essential parts of the urban environment.However,cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space:rooftop gardens.While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof,human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years.Some rooftop gardens are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment (投资) of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.
Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban parks and garden spaces,but without taking up the much-needed land.In the summer,rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun,which can significantly reduce cooling bills.In the winter,gardens help control the heat that materials like brick and concrete release so quickly,leading to savings on heating bills.Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city settlers,making their diets healthier.Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy,they are also a smart environmental investment.
1.The underlined word “emits” in the second paragraph probably means “ ”.
A.carries away
B.takes up
C.gives out
D.breathes in
2.Which of the following contributes to the Urban Heat Island Effect?
A.More building materials.
B.More trees and grass.
C.More parking lots.
D.More rooftop gardens.
3.When it comes to rooftop gardens,what can be inferred from the passage?
A.They make people much happier.
B.They provide more benefits than urban parks.
C.They help to save money and keep a healthy diet.
D.They have become very popular in recent years.
4.What’s the author’s attitude towards rooftop gardens?
A.Sceptical.
B.Supportive.
C.Critical.
D.Objective.

答案及剖析:
1.C 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词义的能力。根据句子叙述可知,1英亩地的树木可以吸收的二氧化碳量等同于行驶11000英里的汽车排放的二氧化碳的量,由此可以推测emit应为“放出”之意,故选C项。
2.A 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第二段中的“Scientists have long noted what is called... and grass.”可知,诸如金属、混凝土之类的建筑材料与城市热岛效应有关,故选A项。
3.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第四段中的“In the summer,rooftop gardens ... heating bills.”可知,房顶花园可以起到节能的效果,故选C项。
4.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息对作者态度进行推断归纳的能力。根据第四段第一句“Rooftop gardens provide ... much-needed land.”和最后两句“Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can ... environmental investment.”可知,作者叙述了房顶花园的好处,由此可以看出作者对rooftop gardens是支持的,故选B项。
B
A year ago,I decided to create a more environmentally friendly kitchen,focusing on reducing the single-use products such as plastic bags and paper towels.I’m not going to sugarcoat my experience.It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits.In creating my kitchen,I tried a lot of different alternative products and some plain old common sense;the result,however,has been worth the effort.I’m recycling more and relying less on single-use products and I’m saving money,too.
I’m not kidding when I say that I used to really love plastic storage bags,so this was,perhaps,the biggest challenge for me.Switching to reusable storage bags is a financial investment,but the cost is reasonable considering that I previously spent at least $100 annually on single-use plastic bags and wrap.I will check online periodically for recycling updates,where a zero-waste box for kitchen items is offered,from party supplies to mixed-material food containers.
I’m a clean freak (怪人) and used to go through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis,but it’s easy enough to take old T-shirts or towels and cut them up to use to wipe down surfaces.I’m also a fan of bamboo paper towels,which have the look and feel of traditional paper towels,yet are made from a highly renewable source and also break down in just 45 days.Better yet,they can be reused up to 100 times.As for kitchen sponges(海绵擦),I keep an eye out for those made with natural and recyclable materials.
When purchasing household items online,I will ask to have them shipped in as few boxes as possible or as small a box as possible if a single item is to be sent.I’ll let the company know that they should pay more attention to how it is packaging items for delivery.
5.What is the author’s main purpose of creating her kitchen?
A.To save money.
B.To reduce waste and recycle more.
C.To change her long-held habits.
D.To make it cleaner and more practical.
6.What does the underlined word “sugarcoat” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Make attractive. B.Get interested.
C.Show off. D.Give up.
7.In creating her kitchen,what does the author do?
A.Begins to recycle more single-use plastic bags.
B.Goes through an amount of paper towels on a daily basis.
C.Checks online periodically to buy zero-waste box.
D.Chooses to use the recyclable or reusable kitchen items.
8.What can we learn about the author from the text?
A.She has strong environmental awareness.
B.She is used to traditional paper towels.
C.She has a good knowledge of financial investment.
D.She prefers to have her purchases packed in small boxes.
语篇导读:这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了作者为了减少一次性产品的使用,而建了一个环保厨房,并且改变了自己很多生活习惯,使用更环保的产品。阅读本文,有利于增强学生的环保意识。
答案及剖析:
5.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的第一句可知,作者创建厨房的主要目的是减少浪费并循环利用更多物品。故选B。
6.A 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词义的能力。根据第一段中的“It takes commitment and a willingness to change long-held habits.”可知,作者建环保厨房,改变一个长期的生活习惯是她自己承诺和心甘情愿的,而并不是让自己的经历变得更有吸引力。因此可推断sugarcoat意为“使……有吸引力”。故选A。
7.D 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的“I tried a lot of different alternative products... and I’m saving money,too.”可知,在创建厨房时,作者选择了可循环利用或可多次使用的厨房用品,故选D。
8.A 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据第一段的内容可知,作者为了减少一次性产品的使用,而建了一个环保厨房,所以从文中我们可知作者是一个环保意识很强的人,故选A。

All of us spend a large part of our lives at home—eating,sleeping,relaxing and communicating with our family members.Our home is a shelter for us,away from the noisy,busy,and polluted world outside—a place where we can let down our hair and dress casually.Eco-friendliness(环保) is a hot word today and we all know we should make our environment as eco-friendly as possible.This is not only good for our health,but also good for the outward environment.Here are some easy and helpful tips to make your home eco-friendly.
Kitchen
Plan the kitchen to be bright and airy so that you don't have to turn on the lights at daytime.Don't make wasteful use of the gas.Keep all ingredients for cooking ready before lighting the gas.Turn it to low when not required—always using it on “high” burns a lot of gas.
Indoor plants
Plants are extremely eco-friendly and can be used to make your home look lively.Apart from adding life to home,they give out O2,thus making the air inside fresh.You can keep plants in your home,but be sure to show them some sunlight regularly.Also,if they are kept outside,clean their leaves with a wet cloth,as dust may be added to them.A home decorated(装饰)with plants looks attractive.Plants are natural home decorative gifts that show concern about the environment.A green plant is a wonderful gift which will protect the earth and is sure to be appreciated.
Saving water
Most of the time,we take water for granted—we keep water running while brushing our teeth or washing clothes.Needless to say,this is a huge waste of natural resources(资源).Try to recycle water.For example,the water used for washing vegetables can be used for watering plants;the soapy water used for washing clothes can be used to clean the bathroom and kitchen.
24.Why is the importance of our home discussed in Paragraph 1?
A.To advise us to communicate more with our family members.
B.To show it's necessary to make our home eco-friendly.
C.To advise us to spend more time staying at home.
D.To show the outside world is noisy and polluted.
25.What is advised to be done in the kitchen?
A.To open the window.
B.To prepare simple meals.
C.To save energy.
D.To turn down lights.
26.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.We don't realise the importance of water.
B.We try our best not to waste water.
C.We don't use water frequently.
D.We make full use of water.
27.Which could be the best title for the text?
A.Live a relaxing life.
B.Create a clean and safe home.
C.Our home is a shelter for us.
D.Make your home eco-friendly.

C
Eco-friendly Vauban,lied in the southwest part of Germany,has
everything—tree-lined streets,perfect houses—but it's missing one urban feature of the last 100 years or so:the car.And Vauban residents don't mind one bit.Vauban doesn't ban cars entirely.Rather,it just tries to reduce the use of cars by creating “parking-free” and “car-free” living.In Vauban,cars can only be parked in public parking lots,so living without a car saves residents the cost of parking in the public lot.Cars also are prevented from using certain roads and must stick to strict speed limits.With these limitations,fewer than 20 percent of residents own cars.And now,with a population of 5,500,it's attracting attention from around the world.Can an eco-friendly city like Vauban be a model for people in other countries to stop their over-reliance on the cars?
Sometimes when I watch a news report what's in the back of my mind is what isn't being reported or stressed.While this eco-friendly city is inspiring in that it shows residents getting exercise and fresh air through the majority use of bicycles,as well as good old-fashioned walking,common sense would tell you that even for a place like Vauban,Germany,it owes its existence to the cars.
Do you think that bicycles were able to transport all the construction materials that were needed to build and maintain the eco-friendly homes and businesses in Vauban?It took cars to help build this city.It's one of the paradoxes of life that sometimes in order to get away from relying on something like the car,you actually have to rely on that very thing at the beginning and into the foreseeable future to some degree.
I myself haven't owned a car for more than 14 years,and mostly get around town running,walking,or using public transportation.There are times I wish I had one,since it would make many things easier,but overall I'm glad not to have to deal with the headaches of owning a car,which caused me to get rid of it in the first place.And all the walking and running has helped to keep me fit and healthy.To get even close to being like eco-friendly Vauban,people will need to absolutely change the way they live.Commuting (乘车上下班)patterns will have to change,public transportation will have to be invested in,and so on.And though ending our love affair with the car will be impossible during my lifetime,we may at least start to see more Vauban-like areas in the world.
We can hope that more people will consider using their feet more to get around,cutting down on pollution,and giving themselves some more exercise.
28.Why don't over 80% of the residents in Vauban own car?
A.The streets there are very narrow.
B.There are many limitations on the use of cars.
C.The government limits the number of cars.
D.Most cars belong to their public property.
29.From Paragraph 3 we can know that getting away from cars in cities is .
A.an opposite thing
B.a big shortcoming
C.a great strength
D.a firm base
30.How does the writer feel of not owning a car?
A.Curious. B.Proud.
C.Grateful. D.Regretful.
31.What is the attitude towards most people about the lifestyle according to the writer?
A.Not mentioned.
B.They are not eco-friendly.
C.They have too many cars.
D.They work hard.

答案及剖析:
28.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中的“Cars also are prevented from using... residents own cars.”可知,在沃邦,汽车被禁止在某些道路上行驶,而且还有严格的速度限制,正是由于这些限制,只有不到五分之一的居民拥有汽车,故选B项。

30.C 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据倒数第二段中的“but overall I'm glad not to have to deal with... fit and healthy.”可知,作者很高兴不必处理拥有一辆车带来的麻烦,而且步行和跑步让作者保持健康,由此可知作者很感激没有车给自己带来的好处,故选C项。
31.B 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据最后一段可知,作者对大多数人的生活方式和交通方式都不满意,认为他们不够环保,故选B项。

Waste sorting is a procedure that involves the separation of waste on purpose into different kinds as defined by the final use for the waste.That is to say this separation of waste is usually aimed at different ends,including for recycling purposes,or even for producing power.As such,the waste sorting could fall into sorts like paper-based materials,plastic-based materials and organic materials.The process could also be started by hand.Indeed,some companies that manage waste have some sorts of waste sorting facilities in place for this aim.
An example of the type of waste sorting that could be observed at the individual level is the common type in cities where various waste bins are set out with clear indications of the type of waste that should be put into them.Some of the waste bins have pictures indicating that only paper should be put into the bins,some are meant for cigarette butts,others for plastics,and the rest could be for any other type of waste.Also,persons at home could begin the process of waste sorting by dividing the waste into various kinds before taking it out.Some companies and government organisations even offer incentives,such as offering some money to consumers in exchange for them bringing in used bottles and plastics.
Some companies have specifically created facilities that are only targeted toward the large-scale application of waste sorting for the purpose of separating the various collected waste into different kinds.
One of the purposes for the application of waste sorting could be for the sake of separating materials for recycling,such as plastics and paper.It could also be for the separation of the waste into the general categories of wet and dry waste.The process could also be for the purpose of sorting commercial waste.With the application,I'm sure it is becoming easier to separate waste.
32.What can we know about waste sorting?
A.It is aimed at producing paper.
B.Its process is started by hand.
C.Its kinds are decided by the final use.
D.Its aim is to recycle waste successfully.
33.What can help the residents sort waste easily?
A.Educating them to know common knowledge.
B.Laying out marked dustbins in the neighborhood.
C.Warning them not to drop rubbish everywhere.
D.Indicating only recycled waste can be collected.
34.What does the underlined word “incentives” mean in the passage?
A.Methods. B.Suggestions.
C.Rewards. D.Solutions.
35.What is the author's attitude towards the application?
A.Doubtful. B.Worried.
C.Indifferent. D.Positive.

32.C 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第一段中“Waste sorting is a procedure that involves ... for the waste.”可知,垃圾分类的种类取决于最终的用途,故选C项。
33.B 细节理解题。考查学生识别和理解文本中具体信息的能力。根据第二段中“An example of the type of waste sorting that could be observed...could be for any other type of waste.”可知,在附近放置有标记的垃圾箱可以帮助居民方便地将垃圾分类,故选B项。
34.C 词义猜测题。考查学生在具体语境中推测词义的能力。根据画线词的后文“such as offering ... bottles and plastics”可知,比如给消费者一些钱,以换取他们的旧瓶子和塑料,而用钱换可回收利用的垃圾是一种奖励措施,由此可推测出画线词在句中表示“奖励”,故选C项。
35.D 推理判断题。考查学生根据文本信息进行推断归纳的能力。根据最后一段的最后一句可知,作者很看好这项应用,持积极态度。故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面的短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Be a green child
What does it mean to be green?“Green” is more than just a colour.36. Why green?Plants are green,and without them the Earth wouldn't be such a lovely home for us human beings.What can we do?Here's a four-step guide to being green.
Reduce it!
37. For instance,a shorter shower means you use less water and less fuel since your house uses fuel to run the water heater that warms up the water.
Reuse it!
Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”.It means that we're always throwing away old stuff and buying new stuff.38. For instance,if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop(篮球框),why not give it to another family who has a little kid?
Recycle it!
Recycling has never been easier.Many communities will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require it.Recycled goods go to a recycling centre,where they can be turned into new cans,bottles,and paper.
Enjoy it!
It's true that rubbish and pollution are problems,but the Earth remains a huge and beautiful place that's ready for you to explore.39. Go for a hike,visit local nature centres and gardens,and climb up mountains.
But before you travel the globe,take a look at your own backyard.Is there a spot where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden?40.
A.It also means taking special steps to protect the environment.
B.Many times,even if you no longer need something,someone else just might.
C.You can start locally by visiting the naturally beautiful spots in your city.
D.Turn off the water when you're brushing your teeth.
E.Get out there and get your hands dirty.
F.You can watch with pride as your tree takes root and your garden plants grow.
G.When you use less of something,you do a good thing for the Earth.
语篇导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍“绿色生活”的真正含义以及如何去践行绿色生活。阅读本文,有利于培养学生绿色低碳生活的理念,同时增强环保意识。
答案及剖析:
36.A 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。上文提到绿色不只是一种颜色,此处应选择做出进一步解释的句子,故选择A项。
37.G 考查学生理解平行和递进语义连贯的具体信息的能力。根据小标题可知,此处应选择表达“减少使用”意思的选项,故正确答案为G项。
38.B 考查学生理解平行和递进语义连贯的具体信息的能力。根据小标题以及下文的举例可知,有些东西自己不需要但也许别人需要,因此应选择与“重复使用”相关的选项,故正确答案为B项。
39.C 考查学生理解上下文语义,建立段落内语义连贯的能力。上文提到“地球等待你探索”,因此应选择与游览、旅游相关的选项,故正确答案为C项。
40.F 考查学生对平行信息之间的衔接关系的理解能力。上文提出问题“你家后院有能种树或者蔬菜的地方吗”,F项“你可以自豪地看着你种的树生根、园中的植物成长”承接上文,符合语境。

第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Recently the air was turning warm.I went for a drive 41 the local countryside,having no destination in mind.It was sunny and the animals were out running 42 in the forest.
Suddenly,I came upon a car on the side of the road.I 43 as an old woman got out of her car and walked down to the ditch(沟).
I wondered if she might be lost or 44 .Maybe she had some problems with her car or a medical situation.I became 45 and,to see if I could be of any 46 ,I decided to stop my car.First I introduced myself,and then I asked if she was all right.
She 47 me that she had just stopped to pick up rubbish that had been 48 thrown out of the window by some travelers.She 49 me to look inside her car and see how much rubbish she had already 50 .
I told her that I wrote articles for the local paper and asked her if I could use her name.“Oh,heavens,no,” she said without 51 .“I'm not doing this for 52 .We live in a beautiful country,and I try to do my little part to help keep it that way.”

Dear Tom,
How is everything going?I'd like to tell you something about the journey.Before graduation,a journey was organised by our class.
The journey was scheduled for the last Saturday.Some students preferred to take a bus while some were fond of cycling.Also,some insisted that they should walk.Finally,we were persuaded to cycle.
When we arrived there,we found ourselves in its beautiful view.The air there was so good to breathe that we could hardly wait to get close to nature.
It was through the journey that we realised we should care about the environment.By the way,I am visiting you next Friday.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面的短文,根据内容写一篇60个词左右的内容概要。
Every year,especially during the spring and early summer,the lives of many young animals are disrupted.People may attempt to “save” these animals,and more often than not,the mother is nearby.
Young rabbits found at a nest site do not need to be rescued.The mother rabbit will not return as long as a person is standing near the nest site.If you've kicked to open a nest,just replace the top of the nest,and leave.The mother will return and care for the young.Cottontail rabbits leave their young for hours while eating,but they do return to nurse the young,until the young are old enough to survive on their own.Young rabbits are ready to leave the nest at three to four weeks of age when their eyes are open and their bodies are furry.
Young birds are sometimes found on the ground near a nest.When this happens,the best thing to do is to put the bird carefully back into the nest.Don't worry about getting your scent on the bird;it will not affect the mother's care. If you can't reach the nest,leave the bird on the ground.Every bird alive today has spent a few precarious days on the ground while learning to fly.The best thing you can do during this time of year to protect young wildlife is to keep cats indoors.
When young raccoons are found out alone,it is likely that they are merely exploring and their mother is nearby.They are probably old enough to be fully capable of climbing back up a tree to their den.If they were too young to climb,the mother would carry them back.
If you find a young fawn lying alone,leave it there.The mother comes back several times each day to nurse the fawn.If you've already picked the fawn up and brought it home,put it back.Even one or two days after removal from the wild,fawns have been successfully reunited with their mothers,by returning them to the place where they were found.
