Many Chinese cities now face the same sort of problem with air pollution that London faced 40 or 50 years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of the pollution comes from the factories, rather than from coal burnt in people’s houses. If these factories were closed, this would harm the economy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel (燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.
However, the air in many Chinese cities is becoming cleaner and cleaner, as the government and people pay more and more attention to cutting down pollution. As a result, there are fewer “pea-soupers” in Beijing than there used to be.

A.There was too much smoke in the sky. |
B.There were too many factories in the city. |

答案
小题1:C
小题2:B
小题3:A
小题4:B
小题5:B
解析
试题分析:伦敦曾经被称为雾都,现在中国像北京、重庆这样的大城市也开始有雾霾了。污染一来自工厂二来自公民用煤, 中国的大城市主要是因为前者,而英国则是后者。中国还不能治理,因为工厂关闭意味着很多人失业。随着政府和公民在清洁空气方面的不断努力,空气变得越来越干净了。
小题1:细节理解题。根据In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but much of it came from the coal (煤) that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter.。可知,伦敦的污染大部分来自冬天人们为了取暖而烧的煤。故选C。
小题2:细节理解题。根据A new law was made and nobody could burn coal in any British city.可知,英国政府制定了新的法律,在英国任何一个城市没有人可以烧煤。故选B。
小题3:词义推测题。根据前一句的意思,任何人不得燃煤的规定执行几年后,英国的空气变得干净多了。可知本句的意思是:空气干净了,不再有一开始提到的烟雾了。故选A。
小题4:细节理解题。根据,中国的城市污染不能解决的原因有二。一、更多的污染来自工厂;二、煤改清洁燃料的费用太贵了。故选B。
小题5:细节理解题。题目要求我们判断不正确的描述。A. Air pollution is serious in Beijing and Chongqing.空气污染在北京和重庆很严重;文章第一句话就提到了;B. Using coal is much more expensive than using gas. 用煤比用气贵得多。根据Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel (燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.可知,把煤改成像气那样的燃料太贵了。所以与事实不符。C. Factories made much more pollution in China.在中国工厂的污染更多。根据文章第二段可知,工厂的污染大,又没有办法关闭,因为很多人会失业;所以C的陈述正确;D. The reasons of air pollution in London and Beijing are different.伦敦和北京的污染不一样。伦敦的污染是因为市民取暖用煤;北京的污染是因为工厂的原因。所以不一样。陈述正确。故选B。

Most of our crash goes to places called landfills. A LANDFILL is a low area of land that is filled with garbage(垃圾).Most modern landfills are lined with a cover of plastic to keep dangerous liquids(液体)from polluting earth and ground water supply. The problem is that more than half of the states in this country are running out of places to landfill their garbage. Because of the unhealthy materials, landfills do not make good neighbors,and people don’t want to live near them. Many landfills are set in poor neighborhoods.
The Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, New York, was the largest garbage landfill in the world. For years, people who live nearby complained about air and water pollution caused by the enormous pile of trash. They say that the smoke have made people sick. The landfill closed in
April 2001.Now can a harmful waste—material that can pollute air, land, and water –be disposed of in a safe way.
Another way to get rid of trash is to burn it. Trash is burned in an incinerator._ Because incinerators in operation can get rid of almost all of the trash, some communities would rather use incinerators than landfills. There is a problem, though. Leftover ash and smoke from burning trash may have dangerous chemicals, and even make it hard for some people to breathe. They can harm plants, animals, and people.
You can help reduce(减少)waste by reusing bottles, batteries, and paper. You can also recycle newspaper, glass, and plastics t to provide materials for making other products.
From recycled materials, many things are made. For example, from recycled paper we can get newspapers, boxes and so on. From recycled plastic we can get soda bottles, tables, and backpacks.
小题1:Why don’t landfills make good neighbors?
A.Because there are unhealthy materials in them. |
B.Because people prefer to live in the city center. |
C.Because landfills are not big enough for trash. |
D.Because most states are running out of places. |
A.An area to collect trash. | B.A machine to burn trash |
C.A method that is used to burn trash. | D.A station that is run by selling trash. |
A.How Is Trash Burned? | B.What Can Be Reused. |
C.Why Is Waste Dangerous? | D.Where Does Garbage Go? |
Ants may be very tinny, but they’re serious eaters! Ants love a picnic and they have their “ant-picnics”.
Favorite Foods
Want to find out what the ants like to eat? Place different foods on the edge of an upside-down plate. You can use butter, honey or seeds. Put this feeding station in the places where there are lots of ants. Wait three minutes and count the number of ants feeding on each food. Count them every three minutes. Watch and find out!
Do ants prefer sweet foods or less sweet ones? Here’s test: Give ants a choice between full-strength honey and a honey-water mixture. Offer a few drops of each choice side-by-side. Then count the number of ants you see near each site every three minutes.
How Far Will They Go?
Want to see how far ants travel to collect food? First find an ant nest(巢) by following some ants when they carry food home. Now you know how far the ants traveled to your food station. Next, move the food station about one foot (30cm) farther. Keep moving it until the ants no longer show up.
Spreading the News
Once ants find food they like, usually they try to get their nestmates to help. To find out how long it takes an ant to tell others there’s food nearby, offer their favorite food and watch. After the first ant finds it, begin counting the ants at the food station every minute. Also, watch their behavior, when the first ant heads home, what does it do when it gets near other nestmates?

This is not the only example of a crash in which everyone but a child died. A 12-year-old girl was the only person to survive a 2009 air crash in the Indian Ocean. When a plane crashed over Sudan in 2003, only a 3-year-old boy survived.
It"s a question that leaves safety experts puzzled. So farthere is not enoughhard evidence forthem to answer withany certainty.
Although unclear, there arereasons to suggestthat children maycope (应对) better than others.
Professor Ed Galea at the University of Greenwich, suggested children would be cocooned(被紧紧抱住) within their seat and therefore might be less probably to receive injuries.
"With an adult with their head above the seat and legs on the floor, they will receive some kind of injury landing on your head and legs," he told the BBC.
"It would be miraculous (奇迹的) to survive that, but there have been cases(情况) of people falling into trees. A smaller body would mean it"s more possible the tree would break your fall," he explained.
Studies found other factors (因素), besides luck, influence the chances of surviving a crash.
One is seating. A study of plane crashed conducted by Poplar Mechanics found that people sitting toward the back of the plane were more probably to survive than those sitting toward the front. A survey conducted by researchers at the University of Greenwich in the UK found that what matters most is how close you are to an exit(出口). Sit in five rows(排) of an exit, and you"ve got better-than-even chances of surviving. Sit in six rows or more away, and your chances are less than 50-50.
Other factors for surviving a plane crash include wearing a seat belt, paying attention to flight instructions and staying alert(警觉) during taking off and landing. And of course, don"t fly with airlines that are the most pobably to crash.

Here are some examples of bad behaviour:
• Playing truant(逃学) (missing school without permission from parents).
• Stealing, smoking, hitting, swearing, running, kissing.
• Cheating on exams.
• Calling a teacher or another pupil a bad name.
• Not doing homework.
• Not listening or not paying attention in lessons.
• Wearing unsuitable clothes.
Here are some of the ways that UK school children can be punished:
• Exclusion(开除): a pupil is asked to leave the school and not come back. The pupil has to find a new school or a different method of education.
• Suspension(停课): a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons until the school has a meeting about their situation. Suspension can last from one to 45 days. The pupil is usually given work to do at home with a special teacher.
• Detention(拘留): a pupil is asked to stay after school and work for 30-60 minutes before they can leave.
• Lines: a pupil has to write a sentence many times (e.g. 100 or more) on a sheet of paper, e.g. “I must not shout in class.”
Freya MacDonald, a 15-year-old pupil from Scotland, _________when she refused to accept her school’s punishment. Her family says that she was given 11 detentions for trivial things such as having fizzy drinks in class and coming into school through a fire door.
Freya says that repeated detentions ruined her right to an education under Scottish law and made it difficult for her to learn. So she refused to return until the school respected her civil rights. She wants the headmaster and her teachers to sign a letter to promise this. Hundreds of schools in Scotland were told not to use detention as a punishment because of her legal action.
Many UK schools now give parents a home&school contract(契约,合同), explaining their discipline and rules. Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the school’s rules and discipline and that they are responsible for their child’s behaviour.
小题1:The expression “step out of line” in Paragraph 1 probably means________
A.jump the queue | B.break the discipline |
C.be later for school | D.fight with others. |
A.To list common bad behavior in UK schools. |
B.To show how UK schools deal with students’ parents. |
C.To find out why more and more pupils break rules in UK schools. |
D.To introduce how UK schools punish students with their discipline. |
A.covered the story |
B.corrected her behavior |
C.showed an interest |
D.made the news |
A.Punishments in UK School |
B.What is Bad Behavior? |
C.UK School Discipline. |
D.Too Many School Rules in the UK |
