III.阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

The earth is getting warmer. Over the past 100 years Earth's temperature rose by about 1°F. Scientists predict that Earth will continue to warm by about 2—6°F over the next 100 years. That may not sound like much, but think about this: During the last Ice Age, Earth was only 9°F cooler than it is today, and large sheets of ice called glaciers(冰河) covered large parts of North America! The warming of Earth's climate is called global warming.

Scientists are not sure of what causes climate change. Earth could be warming on its own, however, most scientists believe that human activity is speeding up the climate change. Earth warms itself through a process called the greenhouse(温室) effect. When sunlight enters Earth's atmosphere(大气), it passes through a layer of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases occur

naturally, but humans also create them by burning fossil fuels. When sunlight hits Earth's surface it bounces_back toward the sky. The greenhouse gases trap some of the sunlight on Earth and allow the rest to go back into space, making Earth's temperature warm. The process works much in the same way as a greenhouse, hence its name. If there are too many greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, too much sunlight may be trapped, making Earth warmer.

Scientists cannot predict exactly what will happen as Earth's temperature rises. They believe a rapid climate change could upset the balance of the ecosystem(生态系统), causing some land and marine(海产的) life to become extinct. As temperatures rise, the world's glaciers will melt(融化)into the ocean, causing sea levels to rise between several inches to three feet during the next 100 years. Higher sea levels could cause flooding of coastal lands. Warmer ocean water could cause increased storm activity on the coasts while areas away from the coasts may experience droughts. These are just a few of the possible effects of global warming.

1．The best title for this text would be________. A．Climate B．Climate change C．Global warming D．Greenhouse effect

答案 B [主旨大意题。综观全文，讲述的是气候变化的现状、原因以及影响。因此全文围绕着一个中心即：气候的变化。]

2．Humans create greenhouse gases every time except we________. A．play video games B．use a hair dryer C．ride in a car D．use solar energy lights

答案 D [推理判断题。由第二段知，人类活动加快了气候变化，主要是通过“by burning fossil fuels”。因此选D。]

3．Which of the following is not the effect of climate change? A．Rising temperature.

B．The extinction of some wildlife. C．Sea level rising.

D．Flooding of coastal lands.

答案 A [推理判断题。由最后一段知，B、C、D三项都提到了，因此选A，这是气候变化的表现而非影响。]

4．The writer's purpose in writing the text is to________. A．show us the temperature rising B．tell us what greenhouse effects are C．call us to protect the earth D．teach us a fact

答案 C [推理判断题。作者讲述的是气候变化的现状、原因以及影响。向我们发出警示：保护地球。]

5．Which of the following words has the similar meaning as the underlined phrase in the second paragraph?

A．throw C．go

B．rebound D．fetch

答案 B [词义猜测题。由所在句知该短语意思是“反弹；反射”，由构词法知识可推断rebound有此义。]

IV.书面表达

“地球一小时”，是为应对全球气候变化所发起的一项活动，号召每年3月份最后一个周六的20:30—21:30，统一熄灯一小时。然而，随着越来越多国家和城市的加入，其弊端也逐步显现。假设你是新华中学的学生李华，请根据以下要点用英语给某英文报社写一封信：

1．指出活动的目的(宣传环保)； 2．指出活动的必要性(环境恶化)； 3．指出活动的弊端(事故和费电)； 4．表达出你的观点。 注意：1.词数120～150； 2．可适当增加细节。 Dear_editor， I_am_glad_to_write_to_you_to_express_my_idea_about_the_activity_Earth_Hour. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【范文】 Dear_editor， I_am_glad_to_write_to_you_to_express_my_idea_about_the_activity_Earth_Hour. It's an activity to call on the world to face the challenge of the global warming and take action to protect our environment. Because of human activities, the globe is becoming warmer and warmer, the enviornment is being damaged and the Earth is bleeding. So, it's necessary to have Earth Hour to attract people's sense of protecting our enviornment.

However, as more and more countries and cities attend the activities, it also gives rise to many problems. Some traffic accidents are caused. Some people have to use candles for light and thus it leads to another form of damaging the enviornment. And in fact, when people switch off or on the lights, instead it will waste more electricity.

Therefore, in my opinion, we should change the form of holding Earth Hour or make good preparation before Earth Hour comes. And above all, we should have the sense of saving energy and protecting our environment in our daily life.

I really hope our environment becomes better and better.

Yours faithfully，

Li Hua
