Question

【题目】Our environment isn’t as green and beautiful as it should be. There are steel(钢铁) monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, cars producing harmful waste gas, people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet. Facing current environmental problems, people need to do their best to save the earth.

You can see many big garbage dustbins in the streets. They’re not there for a show, but for you to drop your waste. We should realize that what we do does count. So next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window, or “accidentally” drop as you walk down the street, ask yourself how much waste you’ve been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years.

At home, the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps（水龙头）are not leaky（漏的），which would help greatly in scrimping. Another is to use energy-saving lights, and turn them off before you leave the rooms. It is not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.

Recycling is a method to make items reusable. Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process. Use your imagination to come up with ways on things that you can use again.

Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives, in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older.

With environmental protection awareness in mind, we can do what we can, for the results are to have a big effect on the planet. As long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.

【1】C词义猜测题。根据第一段第二句There are steel(钢铁) monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, 有钢铁怪物阻挡了阳光,吹出危险的烟,并让有毒的化学品进入河流。可知这些现象都和工厂有关，所以这里是用steel(钢铁) monsters来描述大工厂，故选C。

【2】B推理判断题。 根据第五段“Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives,...”可知，第五段讲的是，保护环境要从孩子开始，把环保的意识和方法教给孩子们。故选B。

【3】D 细节理解题。根据第二段的“We should realize that what a little we do does count.”和最后一段的“As long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.”可知，不能小看点点滴滴的小事，A项正确；根据第四段“Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process.”可知，许多废弃的东西可以通过加工过程变成有用的东西，B正确；根据第三段最后一句“It’s not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.”可知，节约用电不仅环保，也能节约电费，C正确；D“不好的习惯会对环境有所贡献”是不正确的表述。故选D。

【4】主旨大意题。C根据“big garbage dustbins in the streets...At home...Recycling...Pass the message of...on to kids...With environmental protection awareness in mind”可知，文章分段讲述了，把垃圾扔进垃圾桶；在家节约用电、用水；从教育孩子做起等方面来教大家如何保护环境。故选C。

【名师点拨】

推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话，也可能是某几句话，所以，推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。推理判断题的题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude indicate等标志性词语。 这种题型主要包括细节判断题、态度观点推断题、写作意图推断题、文章出处判断题和猜测想象推断题。比如第30小题B推理判断题。 根据第五段“Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives,...”可知，第五段讲的是，保护环境要从孩子开始，把环保的意识和方法教给孩子们。故选B。
