GreenLivingTopicTalk聆聽經典·話題熱身【導語】Earth

Song《地球之歌》,是美國流行天王邁克爾·杰克遜于1995年發(fā)行的個人單曲,收錄于專輯History中。這首歌曲或許可以說是以“地球的名義”而唱的,歌詞內容大致是描述當時的環(huán)境和社會的破壞與不和諧,表達了邁克爾·杰克遜對地球的熱愛。此曲推出后大獲好評,成為邁克爾·杰克遜演唱會的保留曲目。

“Wehaveaseatheater,airconditioning,andalargeentertainmentsystemwhereIcanalsoconnectmyphone,whichmeansIreallyhaveafullvehicle,”LaurinHahn,co-founderofthecompanytoldReuters.【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了德國生產的一款太陽能汽車Sion。1.WhatcanweknowfromParagraph3?A.Thecarispopularontheroad.B.Thecarhasaverylargebattery.C.Thereare330solarcellsonthecar.D.Wherethereissunlight,Sioncanbecharged.【解析】選D。細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段中的“Theseenablethevehicle’sbatterytobechargedwhensunlightishittingthesolarcells,whetheritisontheroad,orparkedinthesunnyspotinacarpark.”可知,當陽光照射到太陽能電池上時,無論這款車是在路上還是停在停車場里陽光充足的地方,電池都能充電。所以只要有陽光,這款車就能充電。故選D項。2.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“l(fā)aunched”inParagraph4mean?A.designed

B.released

C.improved

D.recalled【解析】選B。詞義猜測題。根據第六段“Thefirmhasmadea2019dateformassproduction,whichwillbeundertakenbyaEuropeanmanufacturer.”可知,該公司已經確定了2019年大規(guī)模生產的日期,這將由一家歐洲制造商承擔。所以這款太陽能汽車即將在2019年上市。由此判斷出畫線詞是“發(fā)布”的意思。故選B項。

【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了人類在生活中存在嚴重的浪費現(xiàn)象,由此呼吁人們停止浪費。1.【解析】iswasted。句意:食物因為味道不好而被浪費掉。陳述的是客觀事實,food與waste之間是被動關系,所以用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài),主語是food,謂語動詞用第三人稱單數(shù)形式,故填iswasted。2.【解析】Trees。句意:人們砍伐樹木只是為了獲取燃料。tree是可數(shù)名詞,空后的“are”表明此處用復數(shù)形式,故填Trees。3.【解析】simply。句意:人們捕殺野生動物只是為了獲取食物。修飾介詞短語forfood用副詞,故填simply。4.【解析】a。句意:煤和礦物的開采方式很糟糕。way是可數(shù)名詞,此處用不定冠詞表泛指,bad的發(fā)音以輔音音素開頭,故填a。5.【解析】worthless。句意:許多人傾向于把時間花在毫無價值的事情上,比如在街上閑逛、在辦公室閑聊或者白天睡大覺。修飾名詞things用形容詞,根據空后的舉例可知此處表示“無價值的”,故填worthless。6.【解析】sleeping。分析句子結構可知此處與wandering和gossiping并列,用動名詞作suchas的賓語,故填sleeping。7.【解析】passes。句意:正如我們所知,時間對我們是如此寶貴,一去不復返。if引導的條件狀語從句用一般現(xiàn)在時表將來,主語是it,謂語用第三人稱單數(shù)形式,故填passes。8.【解析】tocall。句意:現(xiàn)在是呼吁停止浪費的時候了。Itistimetodosth.是固定句型,表示“是做某事的時候了”,故填tocall。9.【解析】which。句意:一方面,我們必須節(jié)約和充分利用自然資源,這對我們的未來非常重要。此處為非限制性定語從句,關系詞指代整個主句內容并在從句中作主語,故填which。10.【解析】from。句意:否則,人類將面臨自然資源的匱乏和遭受浪費造成的污染。sufferfrom表示“遭受”,故填from。閱讀理解(2020·西安高一檢測)
