题目内容

17.A small plane crashed into a hillside five miles east of the city,_____all four people on board.(  )
A.killedB.killingC.killsD.to kill

分析 一架小型飞机撞到了这座城市东部五英里处的一个山坡上,结果飞机上的四人全部遇难.

解答 答案:B
此处在句中作结果状语,表示的是自然的结果;由于动词kill与其逻辑主语构成的是主谓关系,所以应使用现在分词形式;D.动词不定式作结果状语时;通常表示出乎意料的结果;故选B.

点评 做本题时,需要掌握动词不定式与现在分词作结果状语时的用法区别:动词不定式作结果状语,表示出乎意料的结果,而用现在分词作结果状语表示自然的结果,如:
He hurried to the station only to find the train gone.他匆匆忙忙地赶到火车站,发现火车已经开走了.
A lot of good land has gone with them,leaving only sand.许多好地也随之消失了,留下来的只是沙漠.

8.Cities alarmed by deaths and injuries of pedestrians are taking efforts to make crosswalks safer for people on foot,especially seniors and children who need more time to cross streets.
A pedestrian is killed in a traffic accident in the USA every 110minutes; one is injured every nine minutes,according to official data.Crosswalks can be especially dangerous for the elderly.Among people 70and older,36% of pedestrian deaths in 2006occurred in crosswalks,compared   with 21% of those younger than 70,according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
The Federal Highway Administration(FHWA) advise that next year states increase by nearly 15% the amount of  time traffic lights provide for pedestrians to cross the street after the flashing orange hand appears.
FHWA spokesman Doug Hecox says reasons for the change include an aging population that needs more time to cross,health-conscious Americans walking more,children encouraged to walk to prevent getting overweight and high gas prices pushing people to walk instead of drive.
Pedestrian deaths went down by 12% from 5,449in 1996to 4,784in 2006,Bur among those in 2006,471were killed in crosswalks,down slightly from 488ten years earlier,the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) says.

53.Which of the following is true according to the text?B
A.Among 100pedestrian deaths there were 21people younger than 70
B.Old people are more likely to meet with accidents happened per hour.
C.Traffic accidents killed more old people than young people
D.About seven traffic accidents happened per hour.
54.What is FHWA's suggestion to states?C
A.Fixing more traffic lights
B.Providing more crosswalks
C.Giving pedestrians more time to cross streets.
D.Drivers don't give way
56.The report from NHTSA suggests thatD
A.fewer people were injured in crosswalks
B.crosswalk safety has been greatly improved
C.much has been done to reduce traffic accidents
D.pedestrian deaths in crosswalks remain a serious problem.
12.A few years ago,Paul Gerner began to gather a group of architects in Las vegas to ask them what it would take to design a public school that used 50percent less energy,cost much less to build and obviously improved student learning."I think half of then fell off their chairs,"Gerner says.
Gerner manages school facilities (设施)for Clark county,Nevada,a district roughly the size of Massachusetts.By 2018,143,000additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system.Gerner needs 73new schools to house them.Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes (样品); They plan to construct their schools starting in 2009.The district will then assess how well the schools perform,and three winners will copy those designs in 50to 70new buildings.
Green schools are appearing all over,but in Clark County,which stands out for its vastness,such aggressive targets are difficult because deign requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate."One of the biggest challenges is getting the right site orientation(朝向),"Mark McGinty,a director at SH Architecture,says.His firm recently completed a high school in Las Vegas."You have the same building,same set of windows,but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun,it will be really expensive to cool."
Surprisingly,the man responsible for one of re most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings."I don't believe in the new green religion,"Gerner says."Gerner says."Some of the building technologies that you get are impractical.I'm interested in those that work."But he wouldn't mind if some green features inspire students.He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power."You never know what's going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,"he says.

62.How did the architects react to Garner's design requirements?B
A.They lost balance in excitement.
B.they showed strong disbelief.
C.they expressed little interest.
D.they burst into cheers.
63.Which order of steps is followed in carrying out the project?D
A.Assessment-Prototype-Design-Construction.
B.Assessment-Design-Prototype-Construction.
C.Design-Assessment-Prototype-Construction.
D.Design-Prototype-Assessment-Construction.
64.What makes it difficult to build green schools in Clark County?C
A.The large size.
B.Limited facilities.
C.The desert climate.
D.Poor natural resources.
65.What dose Gerner think of the ideas of green schools?A
A.They are questionable.
B.They are out of date.
C.They are advanced.
D.They are practical.

注意:每空不超过3个单词.
What is eco-fashion?Eco-fashion is a complex phenomenon and the common use of the term covers two aspects of fashion-‘ecological'and‘ethical'(伦理的).Ecological fashion usually refers to textile (织物) and clothing production processes and the environmental issues (议题) surrounding them; ethical fashion generally relates to the working conditions involved in the producing processes.
What are the problems with fashion?Firstly,the production of textiles pollutes the environment heavily.Cotton-planting uses pesticides; sheep-farming and wool-cleaning contribute to global warming; synthetics-making (人造纤维生产) brings about harmful waste.Secondly,every stage of clothing production has a significant effect on the environment.They all use a great deal of energy,and some also involve harmful chemicals.In addition to this,there is a lot of waste produced in the process,especially in the form of polluted water.Thirdly,growing consumption levels and our shopping habits further worsen the bad effects.We are now buying clothes in increasing quantities without realizing the scale on which it affects natural environment,and we are also quick to throw away clothes that have been worn only a couple of times.
Then,how to solve the problems?To a large degree,it is the fashion producers that really have the power and the responsibility to shape our future.There are numerous ways in which these producers can reduce their ecological footprint,from switching to green energy and reducing energy use,through selecting sustainable (可持续使用的) materials and choosing local suppliers,to recycle and minimize waste.On the other hand,as consumers we can all make contributions by selecting environmentally friendly clothing and reducing clothing consumption.
Now many people are beginning to shop for organic food products because the benefits of eating food free of chemicals are straightforward and immediate.They relate directly to our personal health.In fact,choosing eco-fashion can also contribute to our personal health,though it is mostly done by way of keeping the health of the planet.

1.Different Cultures
The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot.(36)E
The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries:China and India.Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers-the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India.(37)F
When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture,another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain-the Mesopotamian Civilization.This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.(38)C  Like the Chinese culture,the European culture also crossed waters.When the British settled down in America,their culture went with them over,the Atlantic Ocean.So the American culture doesn't distinguish from the European culture a lot.
(39)D Take the language system for example.In the East,most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system  Other causes like human race difference counts as well.But what's more.due to the far distance and the steep.areas between the East and West,the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries.So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no-interference(干扰) from the other.
The differences are everywhere.(40)G  But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful.The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障碍)  to the civilization of human being.It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.

A.Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.
B.One important thing is to learn about other cultures.
C.And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.
D.At the same time,some other  differences add to the cultural differences.
E   This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.
F.They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.
G.They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.
