A
Bangkok, Thailand’s capital turned the lights out on Wednesday to raise awareness of global warming, with six Bangkok neighborhoods joining into darkness for 15 minutes. Officials ranged two million of the citizens to join in switching off nonessential lights at 7:00 p.m.(12:00 GMT) to warn Thais of the illeffects of climate change.
At Central World Plaza, a downtown shop, Thais put away their credit cards for a moment to consider their energy consumption (消费), as lights dimmed (变暗淡). “I waste a lot of energy at home, for example, I turn my television on while spending two hours on the Internet,” said an 18yearold student. “From now on, I will turn off the TV.”
There was only 15 minutes’ darkness in Bangkok’s central shopping district, with some shops and hotels ignoring the request, but it was enough to make business owner Somas Thanyatote think about his energy habits.
“I will turn off the air conditioner and use the electric fan or open the windows instead, ” the 58yearold told AFP.
“Street lights and other safety related lighting remain on and there will also be more police on duty in case that crimes increase.” Governor Apirak Kosayedhin said.
Bangkok, a city with a population of 12 million, puts more than 26 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year, or nearly 20 percent of Thailand’s total CO2 emissions (排放).
Bangkok’s lights out campaign included a public screening in a /span>downtown shopping district of the Oscar winning movie “An Inconvenient Truth” by former US vice president Al Gore.
Australian city Sydney held a similar exercise in April, with a one hour blackout observed by 65,000 homes and 2,000 businesses, which organizers estimated cut normal energy use by 10 percent.

【答案】
【1】D
【2】D
【3】A
【4】A
【解析】
【1】D 主旨大意题。纵观全文可以看出,文章开篇点题,在第一段点明了文章的主题:泰国首都曼谷 (Bangkok) 为了提高人们对全球变暖的认识在周三关灯15分钟。然后下文对这一活动的情况作了详细的介绍,故选D项。这里要注意题目和原文中同义词的替代问题:raise awareness=remind...of。
【2】D 细节理解题。由倒数第三段的...more than 26 million tons ... CO2 emissions.”可以计算出泰国整个二氧化碳的排放量大约是130 million tons。
【3】A 推理判断题。根据第三段中...with some shops and hotels ignoring the request...”可知,并不是所有的人都赞成这次活动。
【4】A 细节判断题。本题可用排除法。由倒数第四段可知B项正确;由第一段可以判断C项正确;由倒数第二段可以判断D项正确;由倒数第四段可知,文章没有提到那些没有关掉灯的市民要被罚款 (be fined),故选A项。
