I am so worried about global warming. We need stop cutting down all of the trees so that they can absorb the carbon dioxide. I think the Kyoto Protocol（京都議定書(shū)) to stop pollution is a great idea ,and I hope our country will decide to follow it, too.
— Eli S.,10,Texa
People should do all they can to help stop pollution, even if it is something as little as recycling your soda can. Every little thing helps. Maybe schools can put recycling bins in classrooms. Students can bring in all of their cans and bottles and see how many the school can collect.
— Lindsey A.,11, Massachusett
The United States should take action to help stop pollution. Since we are one of the richest countries, we should at least spend a little money to help.
— Aaron z,11,Massachusett
It is not good that the United States is not following the Kyoto Protocol. The U.S. is one of the most pollution emitting (污染物排放)countries in the world. Even if the rest of the world agrees to follow those rules, without the U. S. and its big businesses agreeing, global warming will still be a big problem.
—Augustine S.,11,Ohio
The world needs to learn more about global warming problems. If we do not do something soon then some of Earth’s coolest animals will become extinct. People should use solar power instead of things that pollute the atmosphere!
— Jillian J.,10,Pennsylvania
Global warming is very dangerous, and it must be prevented. Even if people think that it cannot be stopped ,we should  at least try. Stopping global warming is more important than keeping our businesses going. What about the penguins(企鵝)and the polar bears? We can’t just let them become extinct.
—Samantha R.,11,Illinois
小題1:Why does Lindsey suggest schools put recycling bins in classrooms?
A．To keep the classroom cleanB．To help protect wild animals.
C．To help protect our earth.D．To collect waste in classroom.
小題2:Augustine worries that global warming problems will be difficult to solve because      .
A．many people think that global warming cannot be stopped
B．more and more trees are being cut down
C．American government spends little money stopping pollution
D．the U.S. refuses to follow the Kyoto Protocol
小題3:Jillian and Samantha believe that     .
A．solar power is earth-friendly energy
B．global warming threatens animals’ survival
C．America is the richest country in the world
D．the penguins and the polar bears are dying out
小題4:What do the six children mainly talk about?
A．Environmental problems.B．The Kyoto Protocol.
C．Animal protection.D．The climate change.

小題1:C
小題2:D
小題3:B
小題4:A

小題1:推斷題。Lindsey 說(shuō)人們應(yīng)當(dāng)竭力去幫助停止污染，即使是諸如何收再利用汽水罐這樣的小事情也會(huì)作用，接下來(lái)舉的這一做法建議即是圍繞防止污染來(lái)說(shuō)的。既是為防止污染。當(dāng)然目的是保護(hù)地球。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)題。Augustine 說(shuō)美國(guó)是最大的污染物排放回之一。只要美國(guó)政府和美國(guó)的企業(yè)不接受京都議定書(shū)，即使世界其他國(guó)家都接受它。全球氣候變暖也得不到解決。由此可知D項(xiàng)正確。
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)題。Jillian and Samantha 都談到全球氣候變暖若得不到控制，像企鵝和北極熊這些動(dòng)物館將會(huì)滅絕。由此知B項(xiàng)正確，二人談的是將可能出現(xiàn)理由的一種后果。故D項(xiàng)不正確。
小題4:主旨大意題。六個(gè)孩子談的均是控制全球氣候變暖和環(huán)境的問(wèn)題。即都是環(huán)境問(wèn)題。B項(xiàng)和C項(xiàng)均片面。

Travel to China is a lifetime experience and a better way to understand China. Only when you are there, you may start to appreciate and understand what a difference to live in a nation with a population of 1.3 billion.?
China offers variety choices for visitors. If you are interested in Chinese history, Chinese culture and Chinese scenery, your trip will be very fulfilled and very interesting. If you want to enjoy a peaceful sunshine beach holiday, there are plenty of tourist areas along the coastal line, which have unspoiled beaches and luxury hotels for visitors. In Hainan Island, the beautiful Sanya beaches are opened the whole year around and there is no winter in this island. If you want excitements and nightlife, stay in big cities. There are many places every night for international gathering. If you are adventurers, go to remote areas to watch wild life or visit minorities(少數(shù)民族) to see how they live in the hillsides or desert. If you are sporty, take a cycle trip along the countryside, enjoy the rural(田園的) life and meet with Chinese people long the route.?
You may have heard or read a lot about China from books, newspapers, magazines and TV programs. Some of them are true but most of them are out of date, incorrect or even false. China is different from many of your previous experiences and may shock you in many ways. This is what China is!
This country is changing and progressing every day. Yet it is still a developing country. After the economic reform, most of the developments concentrate in major cities and remote areas(邊遠(yuǎn)地區(qū)) are still very backward. China is a very populated nation and people have to cope with the crowded environment. Foreign visitors may not get used to the mentality of the people and sometimes become frustrated with the situation, which they never experienced before. Basically Chinese are reserve, peaceful and nice. They are very polite too but in their own way. When a foreigner is willing to take a more positive attitude to recognize the difference, the trip will become worthwhile or you may ruin your trip completely by unreasonable expectation and misjudgment of the people in general.
小題1:According to the passage, if you go to China, you can enjoy all but _______.

小題2:After economic reform, most remote areas in China now _______.

“Earthquake!”The word flashed in my brain.A roaring sound filled my ears.I tried to slide beneath my desk.The desk did a wild tap dance,slipping and sliding towards the centre of the room.I twisted my body and grabbed at the windowsill behind me,somehow kicking free of my dancing chair.I tried to stand.My legs skated away as if on a bucking escalator.
My fingers shook,grasped and held the windowsill tightly.Somewhere through the roar sounded the terrified scream of some wounded animal.I looked behind me and tried to steady my gaze on the other kids but the scene was a dizzy nightmare.Some of the class were sitting in the middle of the room,surrounded by chairs and desks.One girl was screaming.A boy was trying to claw his way across the floor to the door in a crazy overarm crawl.
My grip froze me to the windowsill.
I cried aloud,“I’m going to die.I’m going to die.Save me,I’m not ready to die,I’m not ready!”
I hunched forward on my knees and pressed my face against my clenched fingers.I looked at the backs of my fingers and stupidly noticed the fragile pale hairs growing out of the pores.The fingers would soon cease to exist.Somehow the impending horror of my death was too terrible to even cry about.
Suddenly,I became aware that the rocking had ceased.Perhaps I wasn’t going to die.
小題1:The roaring sound was made by______.
A．a(chǎn) wounded animal B．people screaming
C．children runningD．a(chǎn)n earthquake
小題2:When the narrator clenches his fingers he is ______.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解


Michael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by something truly fishier---the shark(鯊魚(yú)).
Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms.
Lauren Smith, 24, is close to completing her study on shark’s ability to sense pressure.
If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be able to monitor the behaviour of sharks to predict bad weather.
Miss Smith had previously studied the behaviour of lemon sharks in the Bahamas.
She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish, for further research at Aberdeen University.
Her work---thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory ---- resulted from the observation that juvenile blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent storm in 2001.
Miss Smith said: “I’ve always been crazy about traveling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks.”
“I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree. I know there’s so much more we need to understand ---- but it certainly opens the way to more research.”
It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system.
At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas, Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature, while also tracking them using GPS (Global Positioning System) technology.
In Aberdeen, she was able to study the effects of tidal(潮汐的) and temperature changes on dogfish----none of which were harmed. She also used a special lab which can mimic(模擬) oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts.
She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year. She says she will be looking for a job which will give her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research.
小題1:The passage is most probably taken from _____.
A．a(chǎn) short-story collectionB．a(chǎn) popular science magazine
C．a(chǎn) research paperD．a(chǎn) personal diary
小題2:What do we learn from the first four paragraph of the passage?
A．Sharks may be used to predict bad weather.
B．Sharks’ behaviour can be controlled.
C．Michael Fish is not qualified for his job.
D．Lauren Smith will become a weather forecaster.
小題3:Lauren Smith conducted her research by _______.
A．removing hair cells from a shark’s balance system
B．measuring the air pressure of weather fronts
C．recording sharks’ body temperature
D．monitoring sharks’ reaction to weather changes
小題4:What is the passage mainly about?
A．A popular way of forecasting weather.
