Period Ⅲ Developing ideas

课前自学导引What's really green?

什么是真正的环保?

我们大多数人都知道我们必须保护环境,并且我们大多数人都采取措施来节约能源,减少浪费和污染。但最近,一些“绿色真理”被证明只有一半是真的,甚至完全是假的。这里有一些常见的例子。哪些是真正环保的?

?纸质购物袋比塑料袋好。

塑料袋会造成垃圾,对野生动物是一种危险,野生动物会误把塑料袋当作食物。塑料需要几百年才能分解,而纸张需要的时间则要少得多。正因为如此,人们认为纸袋是更好的环保选择。

然而,制作纸袋所消耗的能源是制作塑料袋的四倍,水的消耗量是塑料袋的三倍。这个过程还会产生更多的温室气体。

事实上,这两种袋子都不利于环境。所以,当你去购物的时候,带上一个可重复使用的袋子。

?当你关掉一个设备,它就会停止耗电。

当我们关掉电视等设备时,它就会进入待机模式。处于这种模式的设备仍然耗电,而处于待机模式的旧设备可能耗更多的电。这是因为即使在设备关闭时,电力仍会继续从设备中泄漏。要确保您的设备真正关闭,请从电源上拔下插头。

?吃当地的食物对环境有好处。

这似乎是常识:吃当地的食物应该对环境更有利,因为它不需要长途运输,并在运输过程中保持低温。不幸的是,事情并没有那么简单。消耗大部分能源和产生大部分温室气体的是粮食生产,而不是运输。在某些情况下,即使考虑到运输,当地农产品所消耗的能源和产生的温室气体也可能比在很远地方种植的农产品要多。

?淋浴比泡澡好。

这取决于你淋浴的时间和你的浴缸有多大。如果你淋浴时间超过8分钟,你将用掉和在浴缸洗澡时一样多的水——大约50升水。因此,关键是尽量缩短淋浴时间。

环境意识现在是日常生活的一部分。但值得审查一下常见的想法和观点,看看什么是真正环保的。

Ⅱ 七选五

Should We Create More National Parks to Save Endangered Animals?

Don't you find it worrying that more and more species of animals are in real danger of becoming extinct? __1__ And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks.

__2__ If this environment is destroyed—for example, when farmers clear a forest for new fields, or trees are cut down for making money—many animals are unable to survive, and more species are likely to become extinct.

In addition, national parks protect animals from the danger of being hunted. A major reason why many species are endangered is that the animals are killed by hunters. They hunt animals to make money. __3__

On the other hand, some people fight against the creation of national parks because they consider it wrong to interfere (干涉) with nature. They believe that wild animals are happier living in their natural environment. __4__ They also point out that a few species are more likely to produce young animals in the wild than in national parks.

All in all, though, these disadvantages are far less important than the benefits of national parks. __5__ As a matter of fact, they protect animals from their greatest enemies, that is, human beings.

A.To begin with, animals are important to humans.B.Some hunters even hunt animals simply for sport.C.I personally believe that we must save these animals.D.These parks allow animals to live in a safe environment.

E.Firstly, national parks protect the animals' natural environment.F.They say though the animals may face danger, they enjoy a free life.G.There is a heated discussion about whether to create more national parks.

篇章导读:本文是一篇议论文。作者就是否应该创建更多的国家公园来保护濒危动物的问题进行了论述。

1.C 根据空格前句“Don't you find it worrying that more and more species of animals are in real danger of becoming extinct?”可知,越来越多的动物濒临灭绝;根据空格后句“And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks.”可知,作者认为最好的办法是政府建更多的国家公园。故C项(就自己而言,我认为我们必须拯救这些动物。)承接上下句,符合文意。

2.E 根据空格后句“If this environment is destroyed—for example, when farmers clear a forest for new fields, or trees are cut down for making money—many animals are unable to survive, and more species are likely to become extinct.”可知,要保护动物首先要保护动物生活的自然环境,故选E项。

3.B 本段讲述国家公园可以避免动物被猎杀,接下来讲的是动物被猎杀的原因。空格前句“They hunt animals to make money.”是其中一个原因,B项(有些猎人甚至纯粹为了运动而猎杀动物。)是另一个原因,故选B项。

4.F 根据空格前句“They believe that wild animals are happier living in their natural environment.”可知,有些人认为野生动物更喜欢生活在大自然中,F项(尽管这些动物可能会面临危险,但是它们喜欢一种自由的生活。)符合文意。

5.D 根据空格后句“As a matter of fact, they protect animals from their greatest enemies, that is, human beings.”可知,国家公园可以保护动物免受人类的捕杀,是它们安全的庇护所,故D项(这些公园使动物生活在一个安全的环境中。)符合文意。

Ⅲ 语法填空

The cheetah (猎豹), an expert hunter, sits __1__ (silent) atop a hill and scans the herds of feeding animals looking for the perfect prey (猎物). Finding a target, it moves quietly through the grass until it is close enough __2__ (know) it can get its reward.

The cheetah is perfectly built for the kill. Its coloring helps it to

disappear into the landscape to avoid __3__ (see). And its speed over a short distance, the fastest in the animal world, __4__ (allow) it to chase (追逐) its target. Once the prey is killed, the cheetah pulls the carcass (尸体) to a safe place, even __5__ (pull) it up into a tree to stop other predators (食肉动物) from stealing __6__.

However, the cheetah is also a highly __7__ (endanger) animal. Once found throughout Asia and Africa, cheetahs today are racing toward __8__ (extinct). Loss of habitat and declining numbers of their prey threaten the future of these cats. To change the fall in cheetah numbers, animal lovers are working to protect them. __9__ addition, conservation groups are encouraging local farmers to protect cheetahs __10__ come on their land. It will be a sad day if this beautiful animal disappears from our planet.

1.________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________5.________ 6.________ 7.________ 8.________9.________ 10.________

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了世界上短距离奔跑速度最快的动物——猎豹。

1.silently 考查词性转换。句意:猎豹,一个专业的猎手,静静地坐在山顶上,扫视着一群觅食的动物,寻找完美的猎物。本空修饰动词sits,故应用副词silently“静静地”。

2.to know 考查非谓语动词。句意:一找到目标,它会静静地在草丛中移动,直到它离目标足够近,知道自己能得到回报(猎物)。“be+adj./adv.+enough to do sth.\\”意为“足够做某事”,故本空应用不定式作结果状语。

3.being seen 考查非谓语动词。句意:它的颜色有助于它和周围环境融为一体,以避免被看到。avoid后应跟动名词作宾语,根据句意可知本空应用动名词的被动式。

4.allows 考查动词的时态及主谓一致。句意:它在短距离内的速度是动物世界中最快的,这使得它可以追逐自己的目标。根据前后文可知,本句应用一般现在时;本句主语为“its speed over a short distance”,故本空动词应用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式。

5.pulling 考查非谓语动词。句意:一旦猎物被杀死,猎豹就会把尸体拖到安全的地方,甚至会把尸体拖到树上,以防止其他捕食者偷走它。本句主语the cheetah和动词pull之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,故应用现在分词作状语。

6.it 考查代词。根据句意可知,本空应用代词it代指前面提到的the carcass。7.endangered 考查词性转换。句意:然而,猎豹也是一种非常濒危的动物。本空修饰名词animal,故应用形容词endangered “濒临灭绝的”。

8.extinction 考查词性转换。句意:猎豹曾经遍布亚洲和非洲,如今正濒临灭绝。本空在句中作介词的宾语,故应用名词extinction “灭绝”。

9.In 考查介词。句意:保护组织鼓励当地农民保护进入他们土地的猎豹。in addition意为“另外,此外”,故本空应填介词In。

10.that/which 考查定语从句的引导词。本空引导定语从句,修饰cheetahs,在从句中作主语,故应用that或which引导。

Ⅳ 概要写作

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

In our modern world, when something wears out, we throw it away and buy a new one. The problem is that countries around the world have growing mountains of rubbish because people are throwing out more rubbish than ever before.

How did we become a throw­away society? First of all, it is now easier to replace an object than to spend time and money repairing it. Thanks to modern manufacturing (制造业) and technology, companies are able to produce products quickly and inexpensively. Products are plentiful and cheap.

Another cause is our love of disposable (一次性的) products. As busy people, we are always looking for ways to save time and make our lives easier. Companies produce thousands of different kinds of disposable products: paper plates, plastic cups, and cameras, to name a few.

Our appetite for new products also contributes to the problem. We are addicted to buying new things. Advertisements persuade us that newer is better and that we will be happier with the latest products. The result is that we throw away useful possessions to make room for new ones.

All around the world, we can see the consequences of this throw­away lifestyle. Mountains of rubbish just keep getting bigger. To decrease the amount of rubbish and to protect the environment, more governments are requiring people to recycle materials. However, this is not enough to solve our problem.

Maybe there is another way out. We need to repair our possessions instead of throwing them away. We also need to rethink our attitudes towards repairing. Repairing our possessions and changing our spending habits may be the best way to reduce the amount of rubbish and take care of our environment.
