查看习题详情和答案>>Think about what you had for lunch: Was it a hamburger? A chicken sandwich? Barbecue? What about vegetables? Would it surprise you to learn that what you eat can affect the whole planet?
It can—in a big way. New studies show how food and its production affect the globe and its warming climate. You’ve probably heard of global warming : The temperature is on the rise because humankind has been releasing (排放) amounts of gases into the atmosphere. One of these greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide(二氧化碳).
What does this have to do with food ? A big part of the carbon dioxide that we put in the atmosphere every year comes from the process of making and eating food. The production of meat contributes a lot of that carbon diode. And much of meat’s contribution comes from beef , which is responsible for releasing even more warming gases into the atmosphere.
The process of making a hamburger ,for example, requires a lot of energy. A cow has to be fed and raised on farmland, and cow waste is a major source of methane (沼气) — an especially powerful greenhouse gas. The cow has to be killed. The meat has to be processed (加工) and shipped to a shop, which takes fuel . Most of the cow won’t even be used for meat that people eat. By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate, it has made a heavy effect on the environment.
We can reduce the production of global-warming gases by eating less beef .Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment—at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.
All kinds of meat are harder on the planet than vegetables. To grow and eat a pound of potatoes, for example, sends less than one-quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air. So changing our diet to less meat and more vegetables, as it turns out, may do the world some good.
The questions asked in the first paragraph are used to _____.
A. show the author’s concern about food safety
B. express the author’s puzzlement at what to eat
C. remind readers of something delicious to eat
D. introduce the topic to be discussed in the passage
What is the bad news for meat-eaters?
A. Meat producing can cause global warming
B. Most cows are raised not for people to eat
C. There is a lot of carbon dioxide in meat
D. Animals begin to die off because of global warming
Which is the most environment-friendly food according to the passage?
A. Beef B. Carrot C. Pork D. Chicken
The author wrote the passage in order to _____.
A. explain the importance of eating meat B. advise people to keep a balanced diet
C. encourage people to choose a greener diet D. introduce some healthy foods to people
查看习题详情和答案>>High school students have always spread gossip(传言) in the halls, on the walls and on the phone. Now it’s on the Internet, too. On various message boards, kids write about whom they hate, whom they think have fallen in love with each other and record other often hurtful things that may or may not be true.
Sixteen- year-old Jessica remembers once when some kids at her school wrote cruel things about her on the web. “ They were just making fun of me,” she says. They said she’s really ugly, she’s this, she’s that, blah-blah-blah.
Jessica’s 11-year-old sister, Emma, admits she’s used the web to write bad things about another girl, though she regrets it now. “After a while, you may feel like, how could I have been so mean? Or, why did I do that?” she says.
Experts say gossip on the Inernet can be more harmful than the old fashioned kind. It lasts longer and is taken more seriously. And, unlike ugly words on the bathroom wall, there’s no way to get rid of it.
If your kids are victims of online gossip, Dr. Commanday suggests putting the gossip into perspective(正确看待). “Point out to them how what’s being said on the screen differs from what everyone knows about you as a person,” Dr. Commanday says.
You can also try what worked for Emma: Keep your kids off the offensive website! “ When she was using it all the time, her name was there all the time. People were writing things about her,” explains Patti Thrift, Emma’s mother, “ Since she has no longer had access to that, she’ s no longer a topic of conversation.”
Experts say that any time your child is on the Internet , you should know what he or she is doing there. Online gossip is just another reason why.
From the examples of Jessica and her sister, we can learn that ________.
A. ugly girls like to spread gossip online
B. ugly girls easily become victims of online gossip
C. gossip-makers can regret what they do
D. online gossip is mailny some jokes on others
According to the passage, why is online gossip more hurtful?
A. It can not be removed.
B. It is written words.
C. It is much uglier.
D. It is easier to believe.
If you are a victim of online gossip, you’d better_______
A. ask your parents to stop it
B. try to stay away from there
C. make it known to the police
D. speak ill of the gossip-maker
The purpose of the passage is to _____
A. introduce different kinds of hurt students might meet with
B. advise students to keep away from the Internet
C. list the bad influence gossip on the Internet brings
D. give some tips on how to prevent hurt of gossip on the Internet
The passage is mainly written for____
A. experts B teachers C. parents D. students
