　　Ⅱ.閱讀理解(建議用時(shí)15′)

　　Since the beginning of the year, smog (霧霾) has covered parts of North China. In January, Beijing saw only five days without smog. The rising PM2.5 readings terrified many people, and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious, hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory (呼吸系統(tǒng)) and heart diseases.

　　Later, news of polluted underground water in some provinces scared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe.

　　So the need to emphasize

　　environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere.

　　Smog is especially a common concern. As a popular online post said, air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone, despite

　　your income or profession. People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices, but they breathe the same air as everyone else.

　　At a meeting on Monday, many representatives

　　have expressed their concerns about

　　the air quality, too. One talked about his experience in Beijing. “After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel, which took about an hour, I washed my nose and found the inside

　　of my nose was black. We should ask ourselves this question：Why do we want to develop? It's for living a better life. Dirty air is definitely not a better life, ” he said.

　　China needs to develop its economy and invest (投資) in high-tech. Every Chinese has a dream to make China stronger. But without blue sky, clean water and safe food, the achievements in the economy will become meaningless. Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can move to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth.

　　What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China. The great efforts must be made to promote

　　ecological progress and build a beautiful China. The words have shown the central government's determination to address the environment issue.

　　這篇文章主要講述了中國(guó)北方霧霾給人類經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展敲響警鐘，不能一味追求經(jīng)濟(jì)而不顧環(huán)境保護(hù)。

　　1．The effect of smog doesn't include ________.

　　A．the increase of people's income

　　B．more people suffering diseases

　　C．the rising of PM2.5 readings

　　D．patients increasing in hospital

　　答案：A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“The rising PM2.5 readings terrified many people, and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious, hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory (呼吸系統(tǒng)) and heart diseases.”可知霧霾的影響不包括增加人民收入。故選A項(xiàng)。

　　2．Why has smog become a common concern?

　　A．Because people have to pay higher prices.

　　B．Because a popular online-post discussed it.

　　C．Because we have to develop industry.

　　D．Because nobody can avoid it.

　　答案：D　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句，我們可以知道空氣是唯一不分貧富，每個(gè)人不可避免要呼吸的，故選D項(xiàng)。

　　3．The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to “________”．

　　A．space technologies

　　B．other planets

　　C．human beings

　　D．industrial development

　　答案：C　詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第六段“Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can move to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth.”可知太空科技建立基地不是為了人類因?yàn)槠茐牧说厍蚨岬交鹦牵蔬xC項(xiàng)。

　　4．From the last two paragraphs we can infer that ________.

　　A．high-tech can completely solve the problem of pollution

　　B．we must protect the environment while developing economy

　　C．we can move to Mars after the earth has been destroyed

　　D．we must protect the environment while developing economy

　　答案：B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China. The great efforts must be made to promote ecological progress and build a beautiful China.”可知發(fā)展經(jīng)濟(jì)的同時(shí)，加強(qiáng)環(huán)保的力度，故選B項(xiàng)。

　　1．emphasize vt. 強(qiáng)調(diào)　2.despite prep. 盡管；不管

　　3．representative n．/adj. 代表；有代表性的

　　4．definitely adv. 一定地；肯定地

　　5．promote v. 促進(jìn)；促銷

　　1．express one's concern about 表達(dá)對(duì)……的關(guān)心，擔(dān)心

　　2．make efforts to do sth. 努力做某事

　　原文：What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China.(名詞性從句)

　　譯文：公眾想要的是一個(gè)強(qiáng)大而美麗的中國(guó)。

　　仿寫：What_you_need is a good meal.

　　你需要的是一頓美餐。

　　[2024·湖北百校聯(lián)考]We are surrounded every day by thousands of chemicals. These chemicals have been found to be safe－on their own.

　　But are they still “safe” if mixed with other chemicals? That's the big question.

　　On its own, each chemical seems harmless.

　　But in combination with other chemicals, they may become deadly. That is the finding of a two－year study by a high－profile task force of scientists. The task force was told to investigate the cancer－causing possibility of chemical mixtures.

　　Linda Gulliver was one of 174 scientists on the task force. Their job was to study the cancer－causing potential of 85 chemicals. All 85 are said to be common in the environment.

　　Ms Gulliver explains that chemicals have the potential to form dangerous mixtures. Even simple minerals can become dangerous when mixed with chemicals found in plastics or beauty products. While the chemicals are safe on their own. She says, the researchers found that many chemical compound cause cancer in human cells.

　　Working in groups, the scientists explored how different chemical mixtures could lead to cancer. Ms Gulliver's team looked at the ability of different combinations to support the increase of malignant (惡性的) human cells.

　　She says the big issue－what she calls “the $ 64 million dollar question”－is, “Which common, everyday chemicals do people need to avoid？”

　　“The $ 64 million dollar question that everybody wants to ask is,

　　‘Which chemicals should we be looking out for？’ And the answer to that is, ‘We don't know yet.’”

　　She says the current way to identify whether chemicals cause cancer is to test them one at a time. This method leads, she adds, to a long list of supposedly “safe” chemicals. She and her team say that approach needs to change.

　　“We definitely need certain research ... to find out what mixtures of chemicals would be more harmful than others; what groups of chemicals, when together, would produce more harmful effects.

　　And at the moment, that is not known.”

　　本文講述的是一種新的發(fā)現(xiàn)：?jiǎn)为?dú)看來(lái)無(wú)害的化學(xué)物質(zhì)，可能與另一物質(zhì)產(chǎn)生化學(xué)反應(yīng)并會(huì)產(chǎn)生致癌物質(zhì)。這項(xiàng)研究會(huì)不斷地進(jìn)行下去。

　　5．The purpose of the researchers' work is ________.

　　A．to find ways to protect human cells

　　B．to study the character of the chemicals

　　C．to study the cancer－causing possibility of mixtures

　　D．to study how deadly the chemicals in our homes are

　　答案：C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的描述可知，研究的對(duì)象是造成癌癥的可能的混合物。

　　6．According to Ms Gulliver's words, their research work is ________.

　　A．still limited

　　B．completely successful

　　C．practical to other researchers

　　D．not well received

　　答案：A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段和第七段Ms Gulliver所說(shuō)的話可以判斷對(duì)這些物質(zhì)的不確定性，因而可推知答案是A。
