In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let's say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately： is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods？
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions （排放） of carbon dioxide （CO2）from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use - those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the "secondary footprint" group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances （设备） that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
4. What is the text mainly about？
A. What appliances to buy to save energy.
B. What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C. How to identify different carbon footprints.
D. How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
5. What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint？
A. It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B. It is made when we are buying the products.
C. It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D. It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
6. Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author？
A. Using second-hand textbooks. B. Using old and expensive cars.
C. Buying new but cheap clothes. D. Buying new wooden furniture.
7. "The footprint" underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in ______ .
A. using the product B. recycling the product
C. making the product D. transporting the product
C
Most squirrels don't hibernate（冬眠）. Instead, they store food for the cold season and spend the winter in their nests. But the 13-lined ground squirrel, one species of squirrel in the U．S． Midwest, is not the case. For up to 8 months, the tiny mammals won't eat or drink anything at all and the heart rate, metabolism（新陈代谢）, and body temperature dramatically drop during their long rest, which is similar to bears and other hibernating animals．
To find out how the hibernating squirrels hold back their thirst, a powerful force that could potentially wake them up, and researchers measured the blood fluid of dozens of squirrels. Generally, a high blood concentration（血液浓度） makes animals, including humans, feel thirsty. The sleeping squirrels' blood concentration was low, preventing them from waking up for a drink. Even when researchers woke up the torpid squirrels, they wouldn't drink a drop until the team artificially increased the concentration of their blood serum．
Next, the researchers wanted to know how the squirrels' blood concentration dropped so low. Perhaps the squirrels drank a lot of water before hibernation to dilute（稀释） their blood, the researchers thought. But when they filmed squirrels preparing for their winter snooze, they found the animals actually drank less water than they normally did．
Instead, chemical tests revealed the squirrels regulate their blood concentration by getting rid of electrolytes（电解质）like sodium and other chemicals like glucose and urea and storing them elsewhere in the body （possibly in the bladder）, the researchers reported last month in Current Biology. The finding could also explain how other hibernating animals stay containing water.
This new knowledge might one day help humans with conditions such as diabetes（糖尿病）, or astronauts who have launched on long space flights. Unfortunately, even if people can figure out how to drop their blood concentration, it's unlikely they'll ever be as cute as sleeping squirrels．
8. What do we know about the 13-lined ground squirrels？ ______
A. They don't hibernate like many other squirrels．
B. They are endangered species in the U. S. Midwest．
C. They can live for months without water during hibernation．
D. Their heart rule and body temperature are extremely abnormal．
9. The hibernating squirrels don' feel thirsty because of their ______ ．
A. high blood concentration B. low blood concentration
C. low body temperature D. high heart rate
10. Hibernating squirrels adjust their blood concentrations by ______ ．
A. Drinking much water before hibernation
B. Not eating anything during hibernation
C. Drinking less water than they normally do
D. Removing certain chemicals and storing them somewhere
11. What is the author's attitude towards the new findings？ ______
A. Objective B. Positive C. Disappointing D. Uncaring
D
     Some of the most powerful companies in the world have co-founders. For example, Google (Sergey Brin and Larry Page), Apple (Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs), and Microsoft (Bill Gates and Paul Allen) and so on. Having partners can help to deal with the pressure and the failures that come with running a business. No matter how down on your luck you feel they may provide emotional support. They may have extra skills, and be on hand to help out with the day-to-day problems. And an alternate point of view may help to broaden your mind and aid the risk of mistakes being overlooked.
Everybody knows Samsung's Galaxy Note 7. When the phone was launched in 2016, customers praised it for its storage, design and usability, and it may well have been a hit if it weren't for the fact that it occasionally caught fire and exploded. It was soon banned immediately from flights, and Samsung had no choice but to recall the entire model. The shortcoming reportedly cost the company ﹩1 billion, and a further ﹩17 billion in lost sales. But remember, based on the lesson, the Galaxy Note 8 and the Galaxy Note 9 are well received in the world! Now we know that failing is part of business success.
     One thing that all great companies have in common is that they have failed many times-and luckily, they bounced back. Take Sarah Blakely, founder of shapewear brand Spanx for example. She credits her business success specifically to her failures. "I'd get kicked out of buildings all day long, "she remembered. "People would tear up my business card in my face. But my friends and I knew I could sell and I knew I wanted to sell something I had created. I learned that 'no' doesn't always mean 'no', and that you may get 30 nos before you get the one yes. People told me no with Spanx for two years. "Spanx is worth just over ﹩1 billion-it was a company that Blakely who took a degree in a law school started with just ﹩5 000!
12. What can we learn from the examples in Paragraph 1?
A. Two heads are better than one. B. Constant dropping wears the stone.
C. God helps those who help themselves. D. All things are difficult before they are easy.
13. Why does the author mention Samsung's Galaxy Note 7, 8 and 9?
A. To suggest customers should follow the new trends.
B. To prove Samsung is responsible for customers.
C. To show Samsung paid for its product failure.
D. To explain that failures don't spell the end.
14. What mainly contributed to Sarah Blakely's success?
A. Her friends'help. B. Her will power.
C. Her good luck. D. Her education background.
15. How does the author develop the passage?
A. By making contrast. B. By making classification.
C. By giving examples. D. By giving numbers.

4.【答案】
【小题1】D
【小题2】D
【小题3】A
【小题4】A
【解析】（1）D.主旨大意题。文章第一段中Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices（幸运的是，现在更容易选择环保的生活方式）"以及困扰作者的一个问题"is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced ones？（新型环保产品，使用过的传统生产的产品，选择哪一种更好？） "再根据第二段一整段的内容，作者通过研究得出答案，有些时候是新型环保产品好，有时候是另一种更好。文章接下来的段落就是分析了作者这个答案是怎样找到的。由此可知，文章主要是关于怎样选择更环保的生活方式的。故选D项.
（2）D.推理判断题。根据第三段中The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown.（第二种足迹是表示我们使用的产品在整个生命周期中间接排放的二氧化碳，这些是和他们的生产和排放有关的） "可知，第二种碳足迹虽然不是我们直接产生的，但是也是我们使用的产品释放出来的，也是要归结到我们身上的。故选D项.
（3）A.推理判断题。根据第四段中"Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the "secondary footprint" group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production."可知，像盘子，衣服和家具这样的物品是属于 "第二类型的足迹"，所以是越少越好，我们应该注重寻找用过的物品来避免额外的生产。二手书是属于和衣服等可以二次使用的物品，符合题意。故选A项.
（4）A.词义猜测题。根据第四段中"The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you. （主要的问题是这些投入在制造新产品时的能源以及这种额外的碳是否值得它到你手里以后，所产生的碳足迹） "可知，footprint在其后定语从句the product will make once it gets to you充当make的宾语，意思是"这种碳足迹就是产品到你手里之后，你使用中所产生的"。由此推知，划线词组the footprint指的是"产品使用过程中产生的二氧化碳"。故选A项.
作者通过研究得出答案，有些时候是新型环保产品好，有时候是另一种更好。分析了作者寻找答案的过程。告知读者怎样选择更环保的生活方式。
阅读理解是考查语篇理解能力．常考的题型有：推理判断题；主旨大意题；细节理解题；猜测词意题。解题时，在读懂文章的基础上，还有特别注意掌握题型的特征，尤其是细节题和推断题不可混淆。

2．B．推理判断题．由第二段 a high blood concentration（血液浓度） makes animals， including humans， feel thirty可知血液浓度高促使动物包括人类感到口渴，由此可以推断出冬眠的松鼠不口渴是因为血液浓度低．故选B．
3．D．细节理解题．由倒数第二段 chemical tests revealed the squirrels regulate their blood concentration by getting rid ofelectrolytes（电解质）like sodium and other chemicals like glucose and urea and storing them elsewhere in the body可知，化学测试表明松鼠调节血液浓度是通过将电解质转移至身体其他部位储存的方式进行的，即移走某种特定的物质即电解质，并储存到其他地方．故选D．
4．B．观点态度题．由最后一段可知这项发现可以用来治疗糖尿病或者帮助长时间在太空站的宇航员，有实际运用的价值，即作者对此持积极态度．故选 B．
这是一篇说明文．文章介绍了一种冬眠的松鼠，地松鼠．它以将电解质从血液中换到其他地方储存的方式来降低血液浓度，而这项发明可能用于治疗糖尿病等人类疾病．
考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的的能力，在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．此类的填空题一定要联系上下文，根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解，再作出正确的判断
