【解析】

试题分析:本文讲述的是我们要不要对于碳污染“买单”

【1】arguing考查动词时态。根据句意,此处表示“他们(正在)就……进行争辩”,应该用一般现在时或现在进行时。

2has 考查主谓一致。此句主语是Carbon pollution ,故谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式has. have an impact on 为固定搭配,意为“对……有影响”。

3Throwing考查动名词。分析句子结构可知此处缺少主语,故用动名词。

4who 考查定语从句。此处引导定语从句修饰the people,且在后面的句子中作主语,故用who来引导定语从句。

5destructive考查形容词。destructive破坏性的 句意:保险率随着暴风雨的破坏程度加大而上升,get变得,连系动词,后面跟形容词作表语。故用destructive.

6changes考查名词单复数。population changes人口数量的变化,表示复数意义,故应该使用可数名词的复数形式。

7what考查名词性从句。表语从句中缺少宾语,且指物,故用连接代词what来引导表语从句。

8to limit考查非谓语动词。force的后置定语常用不定式,market force 68 (limit) the pollution限制污染的市场推动力。

9really 考查副词。修饰谓语动词,应该用real的副词形式really.

【10the考查冠词。companies特指那些靠化石燃料盈利的公司,因此用the表示特指”。

【题目】阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Dear editor,

I have been getting along well with my father. However, as I’m in Senior Three now, the question whether I should live at school or come back home for the nights has come to our family discussion. My father and I have different opinions over the matter and we are arguing over it these days.

My father insists that I should live at school. In the previous two years, I have been spending about 80 minutes every day to and from school. Living at school can help save a lot of time. In this way, I can have more time for my studies.

On the other hand, what I believe is that I should spend my nights at home. First of all, if I come home for the nights, I will have more freedom to arrange my studies. Meanwhile, I will have more time to communicate with my parents, which will make us understand each other better.

I don’t want to make compromises and neither does my father, as it seems. Could you tell me what I should do? I would be grateful if you could give me some advice.

Your sincere reader,

Teddy

【题目】When I was a boy, I used to love walking in the woods around my home.My mom warned me several times never to travel so far that I would lose sight of the house.Being a typical boy, however, I soon found myself hiking further and further away, testing just how far I could go into the woods without getting lost.After losing my way once for two hours, though, I decided that I had better leave a trail the next time I went for a walk.

The very next day I decided to try it.I walked into the woods until the house was out of sight.Then I broke a small branch on a young tree to mark my place.I wandered further in and broke another limb and then another.In a few spots where there were no limbs small enough, I snapped the heads off the low plants that were growing where the sunlight broke through the trees.After a while I finally got tired and decided to head back.Turning around I easily found my tracks, but instead of being proud I felt sad.I could see the trail of destruction I had left in the woods going on and on.Looking at the broken limbs and dead flowers I wondered if God was disappointed in me and I vowed never to do that again.Instead, I started to cherish my times alone in the woods with nature.I’d sit by the streams and listen to them sing.I’d watch the birds and squirrels.I’d bend down to smell the flowers.And I even buried an acorn or two hoping that one day an Oak might grow.

There is an old Native American Saying that goes “We will be known forever by the tracks we leave.” As I have grown older and wiser, I have done my best to never leave a trail of destruction in my life as I did in the woods that day.I have instead tried to leave tracks of love, kindness, goodness, and compassion and I have strived to show others that they can do the same.May you always leave tracks of joy as you follow your own trail of love.

【题目】At the age of ten I could not figure out what this Elvis Presley guy had that the rest of us boys did not have.I mean,he had a head,two arms and two legs,just like the rest of us.About nine o’clock on Saturday morning I decided to ask Eugene Correthers,one of the older boys,what it was that made this Elvis guy so special.He told me that it was Elvis’wavy hair and the way he moved his body.

About half an hour later all the boys in the orphanage(孤儿院)were called to the main dining-room and told we were all going to downtown Jacksonville,Florida to get a new pair of Buster Brown shoes and a haircut.That is when I got this big idea,which hit me like a ton of bricks. If the Elvis hair cut was the big secret,then that’s what I was going to get.

A11 the way to town I told everybody, including the matron(女管家)from the orphanage who was taking us to town,that I was going to look just like Elvis Presley and that I would learn to move around just like he did and that I would be rich and famous one day, just like him.

When I got my new Buster Brown shoes, I could hardly wait for my new hair cut and now that I had my new Busier Brown shoes I would be very happy to go back to the orphanage and practice being like Elvis.

We finally arrived at the big barber shop,where they cut our hair for free because we were orphans(孤儿).I looked at the barber and said,“I want an Elvis hair cut. Can you make my hair like Elvis?” I asked him,with a big smile on my face.“Let's just see what we can do for you,little man,”he said.I was so happy when he started to cut my hair.Just as he started to cut my hair, the matron signed for him to come over to where she was standing.She whispered something into his ear and then he shook his head,like he was telling her“No”.Then he told me they were not allowed to give us Elvis hair cuts.Then I saw my hair falling onto the floor.

【题目】Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural(就职) Ball dress four years ago and the risk paid off.

The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a thin,sweeping,and rubycoloured dress by designer Jason Wu.She teamed the dramatic gown with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.

She surprised the fashion establishment by returning to a Wu design which had been custommade for her.

Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball,Michelle shimmered in an offwhite,oneshouldered floorlength couture gown by the designer.

Wu,who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years,saw his career take off after the First Lady’s surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.

He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the gown and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.

After her 2013 decision,Wu told Women’s Wear Daily,“Mrs Obama likes to keep her secrets.She fooled me again.”

Wu released a women’s clothing and accessories(装饰品) collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official engagements.

The sleeveless,crosshalterneck dress with lowcut back flattered 49yearold Michelle’s toned arms and neat waist.

It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain colour tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.

Mrs Obama’s new hairstyle—she had bangs cut in on her birthday last week—had been loosely tousled for the special night.

VicePresident Joe Biden’s wife Jill also looked glamorous in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.

【1】Michelle Obama’s brave decision proved to be a________.

A.risk B.danger C.success D.surprise

【2】According to the passage,which of the following is TRUE?

A.Joe Biden’s wife Jill also had her dress created by Wu.

B.Mrs Obama’s inaugural dresses were made by the same designer.

C.The colour tone at Michelle’s earlier inaugural events was not satisfactory.

D.Mrs Obama had straight forehead hair as her new hairstyle for the special night.

【3】From the 6th and 7th paragraphs we know that________.

A.Wu didn’t know Mrs Obama had chosen his creation again

B.Wu was aware that Mrs Obama had chosen his work again

C.Mrs Obama told Wu to give away her secrets

D.Mrs Obama should have told Wu the truth

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The First Lady’s secrets.

B.Wu,a great designer.

C.Michelle Obama’s Inaugural Ball dress.

D.Mrs Obama’s 2013 decision.
