[参考范文]
As is vividly shown in the cartoon,when standing beside the river in their hometown, the grandpa said to himself,“It was clear.” The river was brown in the dad's memory,while the child screamed,“It is black now!”
What the story mirrors is clearly about water pollution.Many factors account for the pollution,yet nothing but human behavior is the main reason.With no effective measures taken by the government,many factories pour amounts of waste water into rivers without treating it.
Obviously, drinking heavily polluted water will do great harm to human health,in which case many people are faced with potential risks of sickness or even death.
To avoid the tragedy, something practical should be done from now on.First of all,the government should take measures to deal with water pollution seriously.What's more,we suggest some popular programmes be produced to teach people,especially the owners of factories,how to avoid pollution.Only by raising people's awareness of the environmental protection can we enjoy clean water and a healthy life.

Eco City Farms are becoming more popular in cities and towns around the United States.
Eco City Farms in Edmonston,Maryland,is located near shopping centers,car repair shops and homes.The neighborhood is a workingclass community.People do not have very much money,and they have limited access to fresh food in markets.
Over the past two years,the farm has attracted volunteers from the community like Marcy Clark.She schools her four children at home.On a recent day she brought them to Eco City Farms for a lesson.Her son Alston Clark thinks his experience is very valuable.“I like coming out here,” he says,“You know,you connect with the earth,where your food comes from.You appreciate the food a little bit more.”
Margaret Morgan started Eco City Farms.She thinks of it as a place where people can learn to live healthier lives.“Growing food in a community brings people together,” she continues,“Every piece of what we do here is a demonstration to show people everything about how to have an ecofriendly community.”she says.From the Eco City Farms people come to know that they are not only growing food and raising chickens and bees,but improving the soil with compost(肥料)made from food waste.
Eco City Farms is an experimental operation.The farm gets its power not from the local electricity networks,but from the sun with solar panels.In winter,the green houses use a geothermal(地热)system.
Vegetables can be grown all year.So once a week,all winter long,neighbors like Chris Moss and her three children bike to the farm to pick up a share of the harvest.
“I like eating the vegetables,” says fiveyearold Owen Moss.

B
It's most keen advocates say that global warming is gradually ruining the parts of our planet. But the effects of the phenomenon might be felt more positively a little closer to home, after scientists claimed that it would make flowers smell sweeter.
Some flowers could give out a smell that is nine times more fragrant than they currently produce,according to a report.
It says that a temperature increase of between 1 ℃ (34F)-5 ℃ (41F) will vastly increase the ability of flowers to produce their sweet smells.
The study,published in the journal Global Change Biology,suggests that plants are able to produce more terpenes(萜烯)-the chemicals that give them their smell-in hotter conditions.Despite the environmental risk linked to climate change,the effect on flowers could also help bee populations as the stronger smells make flowers easier to find and pollinate(授粉).It also found that the effect could be more significant in cooler countries such as the UK and would have a strong effect on fruit trees.
The finding comes as the unseasonably warm autumn weather this year has led to reports that plants are being “tricked” into blooming early.
Guy Barter,chief horticultural adviser at the Royal Horticultural Society(RHS),described the findings as interesting and said it could have a significant effect on lightly scented(有香味的) flowers.
“We think about climate change in terms of rising temperatures and sea levels but there are more subtle potential effects which we have not thought about,” he told The Sunday Times.
Last year,experts from the Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change warned the average global temperature had risen by 0.5℃ in 50 years.
They predicted temperatures would increase by 3℃ over the next century,causing a rise in sea levels,flooding,disease outbreaks and mass migration of refugees.

C
The need to feed a growing population is putting much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage(短缺)seems strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages.
Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution(重新分配)are very high. Not only is there the cost of the engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered.Where valleys(山谷)are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Each country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements.
This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation (灌溉). In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed.
Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrigation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry.
9.From the first two paragraphs we learn that________.
A.much of the world's water is available for use
B.people in high rainfall countries feel lucky
C.the costs of water redistribution should be considered
D.water can be easily carried through pipes across the world
10.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.The water stores in Texas have been reduced by 75%.
B.Most industries in the world suffer from water shortages.
C.The underground water in Saudi Arabia might run out in 50 years.
D.Good management of water use resulted from the project in the Central Valley.
11.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A.Steps to improving water use management.
B.Ways to reduce the costs of building dams.
C.Measures to deal with worldwide water shortages.
D.Approaches to handling the pressure on water supply.
12.The text is mainly about________.
A.water supply and increasing population
B.water use management and agriculture
C.water redistribution and wildlife protection
D.water shortages and environmental protection
【答案与解析】
9.C 细节理解题。由文中第一段第二句“With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture…”可知A选项错误;由第一段第三句“…strange to someone fortunate enough to live in a high rainfall country…”可知B选项不合文义;第二段前两句指出水资源的重新分配的费用极高,一方面是水利工程本身的造价,另一方面也会对生态造成极大的破坏,所以选项C正确,根据第二段第四句“…it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other.”可知D项不正确。
10.C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“…has resulted in a 25% reduction of the water stores.”可判断A选项不正确;由第一段最后一句可判断B选项错误;由文章最后一句“…fifty years of pumping will see them run dry.”可知C项正确。根据文章第三段最后一句可知D项不正确。
11.A 推理判断题。文章前面一部分主要是讲述农业在利用水资源过程中存在的问题,接下来应该是介绍加强水资源管理的方法和措施,所以A选项正确。
12.B 主旨大意题。由第一段第二句可知。
D
(2018年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试·全国双一流校大联考)Environmental health is defined as the control of the factors in the environment that may have harmful effects on people's physical, mental, or social wellbeing.Because natural disasters expose people to danger by bringing up or threatening their immediate environment, effective management of environmental health after a natural disaster is of great importance.
The environmental health measures that must be considered after a natural disaster include the supply of appropriate shelter for individuals or groups of people left homeless, the distribution of safe and accessible water, and the protection and distribution of safe food products and so on.
To effectively manage environmental health during and after a disaster, it is important that a state of preparation is in effect before the event actually occurs.During an emergency, success lately depends on making good, rapid judgment and appropriate response measures.Highlevel decision makers, therefore, must be familiar with sound measures beforehand and should be given an accurate judgment of the disaster's specific effects as quickly as possible.
This book is intended to serve as a guide for those who may be called upon to make emergency decisions after disaster strikes.The recommended environmental health measures have been listed in the order of priority in which they should be taken during an emergency.However, each natural disaster is unique in the degree or type of emergency.In response to any given disaster, decision makers may find it necessary to change the priority assigned to any particular measure.
13.Why is it significant to take effective measures after a natural disaster?
A.Victims may be at strike without immediate controls.
B.Victims may be at the risk of losing their properties.
C.Victims may be exposed to poisonous or radioactive minerals.
D.Victims may be threatened by environmental health problems.
14.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.Good preparation beforehand is vital.
B.Rapid judgment is quite beneficial.
C.Effective measures sound familiar.
D.Slow responses sound ineffective.
15.Whom is the book mainly written for?
A.A researcher quite into environment health.
B.An organizer to handle domestic disastrous situations.
C.A possible decisionmaker to handle a disaster emergency.
D.A holidaymaker fond of the topic of effective management.

(2018·北京市朝阳区高三年级第二次综合练习)
Rich and Famous
Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher, followed by working in banking and finance, and then medicine.But today's situation is quite different. 1 Instead they most commonly say they want to be a sports star, or an actor—in other words, they hope to become a celebrity.
According to experts, young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame. 2 Let's take athletes and singers as an example.Their careers are shortlived.Many athletes' best time only lasts a few years and singers can have a very limited career.The field that was once the focus of their lives becomes something they have little or no involvement in.As a result, they'll have a feeling of worthlessness and a lack of control. 3 The truth is quite simple: they have been so far removed from it for so long.
In spite of these disadvantage, there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status.They are not satisfied just making a living—they want to be rich and famous.Globally, more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months. 4 They unrealistically believe that this lifestyle is easily obtained and leads to great satisfaction.
While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions, others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals. 5 That means they ignore the simple fact that great effort is needed before success.As a result, many people won't realize their childhood dreams, which could have a negative effect on their happiness.
A.The younger generation don't favor these professions any more.
B.In many ways this has been brought about by the celebrity culture.
C.Unfortunately, they do not always have a positive effect on people's life.
D.Besides, it can be difficult for them to adapt back to a normal everyday life.
E.People no longer have a sense of satisfaction once their goals have been achieved.
F.This quick way of gaining wealth and fame creates a celebrity culture among people.
G.The reason is that they don't realize it takes talent and hard work to be rich and famous.
