B卷——大题提能练[学生用书P439(单独成册)]
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2021·北京大兴区质检)Did you know that almost 100% of the materials in your mobile phone can be recovered and recycled to generate energy or make new products, such as plastic products, electronics or even jewelry Every mobile phone contains significant amounts of copper, aluminum, gold, plastic and other non metals that can be recycled and reused.
The Singtel x SingPost E waste Recycling Programme, launched on World Environment Day, 5th June 2017, is a cooperation between the two leading ICT and postal companies as part of their environmental sustainability efforts.
Called ReCYCLE, the programme provides the means for people to do their part for the environment by recycling their mobile and Internet related electronic waste such as mobile phones and chargers, laptops and tablets, modems and routers, and other related accessories (配件).
These unwanted devices can be dropped off into the ReCYCLE bins at selected Singtel Shop and Singtel Exclusive Retailer outlets and Post Offices. You can also ask for a ReCYCLE envelope from any Singtel Shop and Singtel Exclusive Retailer outlets, and Post Offices, and mail your mobile device and accessories at no charge.
This programme reduces waste as it ensures that the valuable metals and components the devices contain get recovered. However, e waste that is often thrown away, including all the precious metals that it contains, will be burnt and landfilled at Semakau Landfill.
Is the data in my e waste safe when sent for recycling
We assured that all storage media devices like SIM cards, memory cards, USB flash drives and hard drives are safe for recycling. Cimelia, our e waste recycling partner is a reliable and NEA licensed company, which is only interested in extracting (提取) the precious metals from the devices, NOT the data in them. The devices will go through a crushing process for secure destruction after the whole extraction process.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了ReCYCLE回收项目的内容、如何进行回收以及回收的意义。
1.Why was the programme ReCYCLE established
A.To call on people to sort out waste.
B.To advertise for a trustworthy company.
C.To promote a new kind of electronic product.
D.To collect materials for co friendly purpose.
D 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,ReCYCLE回收项目通过回收移动和互联网相关的电子废物等,给人们提供了为环保出一份力的方式。以及第五段中的“This programme reduces waste as it ensures that the valuable metals and components the devices contain get recovered.(这项计划减少了浪费,因为它确保设备中的贵重金属和部件得到回收。)”由此可知,这个回收项目的目的是收集电子材料,为环保出一份力。分析选项可知D项(收集材料以达到环保的目的)符合题意。故选D。
2.It can be learned from the passage that people may ________.
A.mail the devices for free
B.leave the devices at any Post Office
C.find your personal information exposed to others
D.deliver the hard drives to Cimelia's reliable partner
A 解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“You can also ask for a ReCYCLE envelope from any Singtel Shop and Singtel Exclusive Retailer outlets, and Post Offices, and mail your mobile device and accessories at no charge.(您还可以向任何新加坡电信商店、新加坡电信独家零售店和邮局索取ReCYCLE信封,并免费邮寄您的移动设备和配件。)”可知,邮寄设备是免费的。故选A。
3.The programme attaches more importance to ________.
A.recycling metal B.saving electricity
C.reducing plastic D.collecting data
A 解析:推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知,这项计划确保设备中的贵重金属和部件得到回收。这些经常被丢弃的电子垃圾,包括它所含的所有贵金属,将会被焚烧和填埋。再根据最后一段中的“which is only interested in extracting (提取) the precious metals from the devices, NOT the data in them.”可知,它只对从设备中提取贵金属感兴趣。由此可推出,这个项目更加重视金属的回收利用。故选A。
4.Where is this passage most likely to have been taken from
A.A fashion magazine.
B.A science weekly.
C.A chemistry textbook.
D.A shopping website.

(2021·华中师大附中质检)When she first started learning about the climate change from one of her elders, Fawn Sharp was invited on a helicopter flight over the Olympic Mountains to survey the Mount Anderson glacier. But the glacier was gone, melted by the warming climate. Sharp had a deep sense of loss when she discovered the glacier wasn't there anymore.
Loss is a growing issue for people working and living on the front lines of climate change. And that gave Jennifer Wren Atkinson, a full time lecturer at the University of Washington Bothell, US, an idea for a class.
This term, she taught students on the Bothell campus about the emotional burdens of environmental studies. She used the experiences of Native American tribes(部落), scientists and activists, and asked her 24 students to face the reality that there is no easy fix—that “this is such an intractable problem that they're going to be dealing with it for the rest of their lives.”
Student Cody Dillon used to be a climate science skeptic (怀疑论者). Then he did his own reading and research, and changed his mind.
Dillon wasn't going into environmental work—he was a computer science major. Yet, the potential for a worldwide environmental catastrophe seemed so real to him five years ago that he quit his job and became a full time volunteer for an environmental group that worked on restoration (恢复) projects.
Six months into the work, he decided that Atkinson's class was just what he was looking for—a place where he could discuss his concerns about a changing climate.
Atkinson said she hoped the class helped her students prepare themselves for the amount of environmental loss that will happen over their lifetimes.
“We are already changing the planet—so many species are going to be lost, displaced or massively impacted,” she said. “The future isn't going to be what they imagined.”

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了气候变化和其他人为活动导致蜜蜂数量的减少以及养蜂人蒂勒独特的养蜂方法及感悟。
1.activities 解析:考查可数名词复数。句意:专家说,由于气候变化和其他人为活动,蜜蜂的数量正在减少。other修饰可数名词复数,故填activities。
2.that/which 解析:考查定语从句。句意:我们在它们生活的地方建造房屋和城市,并使用正在杀死它们的化学物质。此处为定语从句,先行词为chemicals,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,故填that/which。
3.lost 解析:考查动词的时态。句意:去年冬天,美国养蜂人失去了将近40%的蜂群。根据时间状语“Last winter”可知,事情发生在过去,应该用一般过去时,故填lost。
4.a 解析:考查冠词。句意:养蜂人蒂勒说,人们饲养蜜蜂的常规方法对它们的健康有害。beekeeper是发音以辅音音素开头的可数名词,此处需要用不定冠词a表泛指,故填a。
5.are 解析:考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意同上,陈述的是客观事实,用一般现在时,主语为the usual ways,be用复数,故填are。
6.traditional 解析:考查形容词。句意:他拒绝使用传统养蜂人用的白蜂箱。修饰名词beekeepers用形容词,故填traditional。
7.with 解析:考查介词。句意:他赤手触摸它们。分析句子结构可知此处需要填介词,根据句意可知此处表示“用”,故填with。
8.deeply 解析:考查副词。句意:当蜜蜂爬到他的手和胳膊上时,他说:“感觉如此亲近,我觉得我们是有那么深的归属感,保护它们不受伤害是多么的重要”。修饰动词belong用副词,故填deeply。
9.to keep 解析:考查动词不定式。句意同上, it is+adj.+to do sth.表示“做某事是……的”,it为形式主语,后面的动词不定式是真正的主语,故填to keep。
10.further 解析:考查形容词比较级。句意:他进一步说,“好像它们真的反映了我们现在在这个星球上的位置”。上一句说他补充说蜜蜂显示了生命是多么脆弱,此处有一个隐晦的比较意义,表示“进一步说”,故填further。
