Ⅲ.阅读理解
请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling.Recycling in the home is very important of course.However，being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.We are dealing with the results of that over consumption in the greenest way possible，but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005.It now makes up a third of a typical household's waste in the UK.In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.The UK，for example，is running out of areas for burying this unnecessary waste.If such packaging is burnt，it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps，but the process itself uses energy.The solution is not to produce such items in the first place.Food waste is a serious problem，too.Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.However，a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue，encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags，for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets.It is about all of us.We have learned to associate packaging with quality.We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.This is especially true of food.But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products，which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope.As more of us recycle，we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting.We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture，but we have a mountain to climb.
36．What does the underlined phrase “that over consumption” refer to?
A．Using too much packaging.
B．Recycling too many wastes.
C．Making more products than necessary.
D．Having more material than is needed.
37．The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ______.
A．the tendency of cutting household waste
B．the increase of packaging recycling
C．the rapid growth of supermarkets
D．the fact of packaging overuse
38．According to the text，recycling ______.
A．helps control the greenhouse effect
B．means burning packaging for energy
C．is the solution to gas shortage
D．leads to a waste of land
Ⅳ.任务型阅读
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
On average，Americans waste as much energy as two thirds of the world's population do.That's largely the result of driving inefficient(耗能的) cars，using inefficient appliances(器具)，and living and working in poorly insulated(隔热性能差的) buildings.
Then what can you do to improve the situation?
Buy energy efficient products—Buy new appliances or electronics of the highest energy efficiency rating.New energy efficient models may cost more at first，but have a lower operating cost over their lifetime.Most energy efficient models carry the Energy Star label，which identifies products that use 20 40 percent less energy than standard new products.According to the EPA，the typical American household can save about $400 per year in energy bills with products that carry the Energy Star.
Switch to compact fluorescent bulbs(节能灯)—Change the three bulbs you use most in your house to compact fluorescents.Each compact fluorescent bulb will keep half a ton of carbon dioxide out of the air over its lifetime.Moreover，compact fluorescent bulbs last ten times as long and can save $30 per year in electricity costs.
Set heating and cooling temperatures correctly—Check thermostats(自动调温器) in your home to make sure they are set at a level that doesn't waste energy.Get an electronic thermostat that will allow your furnace(炉子) to heat the house to a lower temperature when you're sleeping and return it to a more comfortable temperature before you wake up.
Turn off the lights—Turn off lights and other electrical appliances such as televisions and radios when you're not using them.Install(安装) automatic timers for lights that people in your house frequently forget to turn off when leaving a room.
Title：Solutions to save 39.______________

Ⅴ.书面表达
假设你是吴明，最近和笔友李华都很关注“可持续发展”的话题。现在你写一封信给他，谈谈江苏的省情，介绍耕地的使用及保护的情况。
词数：150词左右。
信的开头和结尾已经给出，但不计入总词数。必须包含以下要点：
1．江苏是我国经济发达的省份之一，位于我国的东部，人口多，耕地少。
人口：7000多万；土地面积：10多万平方公里。自然资源贫乏。
2．随着经济的发展和人口的增长，越来越多的良田被征用来建造住房和工厂。耕地面积逐年减少。
3．人们正认识到保护耕地的重要性，政府积极采取措施禁止非法用地。
4．保护土地资源是每个公民应尽的义务，也是造福子孙后代的需要。

参考答案
Ⅰ.
1. 答案：D 解析：考查时态和语态。句意：放学后我们去阅览室读书，结果被告知阅览室正在装修。由句意可知，阅览室正在被装修；由主句的时态可知，这件事发生在过去，所以要用过去进行时。故只有D项正确。
2. 答案：A 解析：考查比较句型。如果表示两个饭店一样好，应用as good as，在比较句型中，程度状语应放在第一个as或比较级之前，所以答案为A项。
3. 答案：D 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：这台机器很容易操作。任何人几分钟就学会操作。不定式作表语形容词的状语，表示在哪一方面存在这个形容词表示的情况或产生这种情绪的原因。本题结构可换为It is very easy to operate the machine.或To operate the machine is very easy。这一结构中的不定式要用主动式且要用及物动词或不及物动词＋介词。故此处D项正确。
4. 答案：B 解析：考查强调句式。句意：我直到来到这儿才意识到此处出名的不仅是它的美而且还有这里的天气。判断强调句式的方法是将it is/was...that去掉时句式是否完整。不难看出此处是强调not until引导的时间状语。故B项正确。
5. 答案：B 解析：考查时态。run out “(被)用完，耗尽”，没有被动语态，故排除C、D两项；由后句中的 “before there's none left”可知，现在粮食还有，并没有耗尽，故排除A项；run out用于进行时表示将来。句意：洪灾区的食物供给快要没有了，我们必须赶在食物耗尽之前行动起来。
6. 答案：B 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：这对老年夫妇经常晚饭后去公园散步，后面跟着他们的宠物狗。此处是with的复合结构，宾语dog与作宾语补足语的follow存在逻辑上的主动关系，且表示伴随情况，故用现在分词作宾语补足语。
7. 答案：A 解析：考查动词辨析。pick up在此句中意为“无意中获得或学到”。句意：你哥哥学俄语如此之快让人感到惊讶——他住在那儿也没有多长时间。look up“仰望，尊敬”；put up“建造，搭起”；make up“组成，构成，弥补”。
8. 答案：C 解析：hearing from you now and then是动名词短语作appreciate的宾语，telling me how everyone is getting along是现在分词短语作状语。
9. 答案:C 解析：win“赢得”，直接与表示活动的名词连用；beat“击败”，后接对手；fight“战斗”，多用作不及物动词，常与against或with连用；struggle“斗争，挣扎”，强调“处境难”。
10. 答案：C 解析：考查名词。句意为：“这家餐馆已经变得大受欢迎，因为它的食品种类繁多，适合所有人的口味。”division“分开；分配；部门”；area“领域，方面；面积”；range“变化幅度，范围”；circle“圈子，界，社会，集团”。
11. 答案：B 解析：考查形容词。句意为：“酒后驾车在过去曾经是经常发生的事情，现在已经被控制住了。”general“普遍的，全面的；总体的，整体的”；frequent“时常发生的，常见的”；normal“正常的”；particular“特殊的，特别的，特有的”。故选B项。
12. 答案：A 解析：考查词语辨析。address “演讲”；argument “争论”；debate “辩论”；remark “评价”。句意为：“校长将在周年庆典上发表正式演讲。”故选A项。
13. 答案：B 解析：contest“竞赛，争夺”；collision“冲突，碰撞”；conflict“矛盾，冲突”；contrary“相反，反面”。根据题意可知B项为正确答案。
14. 答案：B 解析：考查名词性从句和定语从句。分析句子结构可知答案为B项。what引导一个宾语从句，且在从句中充当宾语；that引导一个定语从句，且在从句中充当宾语，可以省略。
15.
答案：B 解析：这是一个对谓语强调的句子，时间状语the other day表示过去，要用一般过去时。
Ⅱ.
答案：16．C 解析：根据第一句和第二句可知作者长大以后想要成为一名舞蹈演员，且根据下文 “that little girl's dream” 可知此处选C项。
17．C 解析：随着年龄的增长，接触的也越多。be exposed to... “暴露于……，接触”；be connected to... “与……连接”；expand “扩大”；extend “延伸”。
18．B 解析：由于接触的多，因此对舞蹈的兴趣自然是有了改变，故用certainly。
19．D 解析：根据文章开头可知，作者的梦想是成为一名舞蹈演员，故选D项。
20．D 解析：根据下文我成为公司的一员可知我的梦想实现了。reality “现实”，与梦想相对；truth强调“真理，真相”。
21．B 解析：date back to 竟为“可追溯到，在……时候开始的”，故选B项。
22．A 解析：根据下文disbelief可知作者认为自己当时缺乏现实感，故用lack“缺乏”。add“增加”；bring 带来；make 做。
23．C 解析：直到排练了一半的时候作者才相信自己被录取了。until“直到……”。
24．B 解析：根据下文我很吃惊及兴奋地颤抖可知我从来没有真正期望自己会得到这份工作，故选B项。
25．D 解析：参照24题解析。motivate “使有动机”；relax “使放松”；convince“使相信”；astonish“使吃惊”。
26．A 解析：该句是本段的中心句。根据后文的叙述可知作者在排练的过程中面临巨大的挑战，故选A项，表示机遇与挑战共存。challenge“挑战”；profit“利益，利润”；advantage “优点，好处”； adventure“冒险”。
27．D 解析：我发现迅速掌握舞蹈动作是很重要的。pick up “捡起，学习，掌握”。put up “张贴，举起”；mix up “混合”；build up “建立”。
28．A 解析：根据前文我的感受和发现可知此处应是对细节的极烈关注，故选A项。attention“关注，注意”；association “联系”； attraction “吸引”；adaptation“改编，适应”。
29．A 解析：根据前文我们对细节很关注及重视练习可知这使得我们很突出，故选A项。set...apart “使……突出”。 set aside “留出，把……放在一边”；set off “动身，启程”；set back “使退步，阻碍，(把钟)往回拨”。
30．C 解析：本句主要叙述的是自己紧张的生活，不仅要进行大运动量的训练而且每天的演出要多达五次，故选C项。
31．B 解析：经历了这么多之后我理解了“艰苦工作”的意义。meaning“意义”；fun_ction“功能，作用”；expression“表情”；usage“用法”。
32．A 解析：根据下文我使我的表现总比上一次要好可知我的体能极限超过我原来认为可能达到的水平。boundary“极限”；problem“问题”；barrier “障碍”；effort“努力”。
33．D 解析：参照32题解析。
34．B 解析：我有幸成为这个公司的一部分，不仅仅是作为一个成员而且还是一个舞蹈队长。have the honor of “有幸……”；talent “才能，才干”；potential“潜力”；responsibility“责任”。
35．C 解析：本句点明了全文的中心：公司的传统就是它不仅鼓励小女孩一代，使一个优秀的公司不断地成长进步，而且每天鼓励着人们去追逐他们的梦想，故选C项。
Ⅲ.
答案：36．D 解析：词义猜测题。由上文的“However，being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.”以及下文的“but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place”可知，我们已过度消费了本不需要的原料。故画线单词的意思与D项接近。
37．D 解析：推理判断题。包装造成的浪费在1999到2005六年间已上升12%，占家庭浪费平均数的三分之一。这不难看出，作者列举这些数字的目的是告诉我们一个事实：过度包装造成了很大的浪费。
38．A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第三句“If such packaging is burnt，it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps，but the process itself uses energy.”可以推出，回收利用帮助人们控制温室效应，不过这个过程本身也会浪费能源。
Ⅳ.
答案：39．energy 40.Situation 41.Causes 42.Solutions 43.energy efficient 44.Advantages 45.lower 46．a/one 47.longer 48.appliances/electronics
Ⅴ.
答案：Dear Li Hua，
How are you？With this letter I'd like to introduce my hometown—Jiangsu Province to you.
Situated in the east of China，Jiangsu is one of the most developed provinces of our country.It is a province with a large population of 70,000,000 but not much farmland for people to live on，and it lacks natural resources with an area of more than 100,000 km2.
With the development of economy and growth of its population，more and more good farmland has been used to build houses and factories.As a result，farmland is decreasing year by year.Fortunately people are realizing the importance of protecting farmland and the government has taken measures to stop the illegal use of farmland.
In my opinion，it's our duty to protect our farmland as well as our obligation to benefit the younger generations.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes.
Yours，
Wu Ming

Ⅳ.任务型阅读
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
On average，Americans waste as much energy as two thirds of the world's population do.That's largely the result of driving inefficient(耗能的) cars，using inefficient appliances(器具)，and living and working in poorly insulated(隔热性能差的) buildings.
Then what can you do to improve the situation?
Buy energy efficient products—Buy new appliances or electronics of the highest energy efficiency rating.New energy efficient models may cost more at first，but have a lower operating cost over their lifetime.Most energy efficient models carry the Energy Star label，which identifies products that use 20 40 percent less energy than standard new products.According to the EPA，the typical American household can save about $400 per year in energy bills with products that carry the Energy Star.
Switch to compact fluorescent bulbs(节能灯)—Change the three bulbs you use most in your house to compact fluorescents.Each compact fluorescent bulb will keep half a ton of carbon dioxide out of the air over its lifetime.Moreover，compact fluorescent bulbs last ten times as long and can save $30 per year in electricity costs.
Set heating and cooling temperatures correctly—Check thermostats(自动调温器) in your home to make sure they are set at a level that doesn't waste energy.Get an electronic thermostat that will allow your furnace(炉子) to heat the house to a lower temperature when you're sleeping and return it to a more comfortable temperature before you wake up.
Turn off the lights—Turn off lights and other electrical appliances such as televisions and radios when you're not using them.Install(安装) automatic timers for lights that people in your house frequently forget to turn off when leaving a room.

Ⅴ.书面表达
假设你是吴明，最近和笔友李华都很关注“可持续发展”的话题。现在你写一封信给他，谈谈江苏的省情，介绍耕地的使用及保护的情况。
词数：150词左右。
信的开头和结尾已经给出，但不计入总词数。必须包含以下要点：
1．江苏是我国经济发达的省份之一，位于我国的东部，人口多，耕地少。
人口：7000多万；土地面积：10多万平方公里。自然资源贫乏。
2．随着经济的发展和人口的增长，越来越多的良田被征用来建造住房和工厂。耕地面积逐年减少。
3．人们正认识到保护耕地的重要性，政府积极采取措施禁止非法用地。
4．保护土地资源是每个公民应尽的义务，也是造福子孙后代的需要。

参考答案
Ⅰ.
1. 答案：D 解析：考查时态和语态。句意：放学后我们去阅览室读书，结果被告知阅览室正在装修。由句意可知，阅览室正在被装修；由主句的时态可知，这件事发生在过去，所以要用过去进行时。故只有D项正确。
2. 答案：A 解析：考查比较句型。如果表示两个饭店一样好，应用as good as，在比较句型中，程度状语应放在第一个as或比较级之前，所以答案为A项。
3. 答案：D 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：这台机器很容易操作。任何人几分钟就学会操作。不定式作表语形容词的状语，表示在哪一方面存在这个形容词表示的情况或产生这种情绪的原因。本题结构可换为It is very easy to operate the machine.或To operate the machine is very easy。这一结构中的不定式要用主动式且要用及物动词或不及物动词＋介词。故此处D项正确。
4. 答案：B 解析：考查强调句式。句意：我直到来到这儿才意识到此处出名的不仅是它的美而且还有这里的天气。判断强调句式的方法是将it is/was...that去掉时句式是否完整。不难看出此处是强调not until引导的时间状语。故B项正确。
5. 答案：B 解析：考查时态。run out “(被)用完，耗尽”，没有被动语态，故排除C、D两项；由后句中的 “before there's none left”可知，现在粮食还有，并没有耗尽，故排除A项；run out用于进行时表示将来。句意：洪灾区的食物供给快要没有了，我们必须赶在食物耗尽之前行动起来。
6. 答案：B 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：这对老年夫妇经常晚饭后去公园散步，后面跟着他们的宠物狗。此处是with的复合结构，宾语dog与作宾语补足语的follow存在逻辑上的主动关系，且表示伴随情况，故用现在分词作宾语补足语。
7. 答案：A 解析：考查动词辨析。pick up在此句中意为“无意中获得或学到”。句意：你哥哥学俄语如此之快让人感到惊讶——他住在那儿也没有多长时间。look up“仰望，尊敬”；put up“建造，搭起”；make up“组成，构成，弥补”。
8. 答案：C 解析：hearing from you now and then是动名词短语作appreciate的宾语，telling me how everyone is getting along是现在分词短语作状语。
9. 答案:C 解析：win“赢得”，直接与表示活动的名词连用；beat“击败”，后接对手；fight“战斗”，多用作不及物动词，常与against或with连用；struggle“斗争，挣扎”，强调“处境难”。
10. 答案：C 解析：考查名词。句意为：“这家餐馆已经变得大受欢迎，因为它的食品种类繁多，适合所有人的口味。”division“分开；分配；部门”；area“领域，方面；面积”；range“变化幅度，范围”；circle“圈子，界，社会，集团”。
11. 答案：B 解析：考查形容词。句意为：“酒后驾车在过去曾经是经常发生的事情，现在已经被控制住了。”general“普遍的，全面的；总体的，整体的”；frequent“时常发生的，常见的”；normal“正常的”；particular“特殊的，特别的，特有的”。故选B项。
12. 答案：A 解析：考查词语辨析。address “演讲”；argument “争论”；debate “辩论”；remark “评价”。句意为：“校长将在周年庆典上发表正式演讲。”故选A项。
13. 答案：B 解析：contest“竞赛，争夺”；collision“冲突，碰撞”；conflict“矛盾，冲突”；contrary“相反，反面”。根据题意可知B项为正确答案。
14. 答案：B 解析：考查名词性从句和定语从句。分析句子结构可知答案为B项。what引导一个宾语从句，且在从句中充当宾语；that引导一个定语从句，且在从句中充当宾语，可以省略。
15.
答案：B 解析：这是一个对谓语强调的句子，时间状语the other day表示过去，要用一般过去时。
Ⅱ.
答案：16．C 解析：根据第一句和第二句可知作者长大以后想要成为一名舞蹈演员，且根据下文 “that little girl's dream” 可知此处选C项。
17．C 解析：随着年龄的增长，接触的也越多。be exposed to... “暴露于……，接触”；be connected to... “与……连接”；expand “扩大”；extend “延伸”。
18．B 解析：由于接触的多，因此对舞蹈的兴趣自然是有了改变，故用certainly。
19．D 解析：根据文章开头可知，作者的梦想是成为一名舞蹈演员，故选D项。
20．D 解析：根据下文我成为公司的一员可知我的梦想实现了。reality “现实”，与梦想相对；truth强调“真理，真相”。
21．B 解析：date back to 竟为“可追溯到，在……时候开始的”，故选B项。
22．A 解析：根据下文disbelief可知作者认为自己当时缺乏现实感，故用lack“缺乏”。add“增加”；bring 带来；make 做。
23．C 解析：直到排练了一半的时候作者才相信自己被录取了。until“直到……”。
24．B 解析：根据下文我很吃惊及兴奋地颤抖可知我从来没有真正期望自己会得到这份工作，故选B项。
25．D 解析：参照24题解析。motivate “使有动机”；relax “使放松”；convince“使相信”；astonish“使吃惊”。
26．A 解析：该句是本段的中心句。根据后文的叙述可知作者在排练的过程中面临巨大的挑战，故选A项，表示机遇与挑战共存。challenge“挑战”；profit“利益，利润”；advantage “优点，好处”； adventure“冒险”。
27．D 解析：我发现迅速掌握舞蹈动作是很重要的。pick up “捡起，学习，掌握”。put up “张贴，举起”；mix up “混合”；build up “建立”。
28．A 解析：根据前文我的感受和发现可知此处应是对细节的极烈关注，故选A项。attention“关注，注意”；association “联系”； attraction “吸引”；adaptation“改编，适应”。
29．A 解析：根据前文我们对细节很关注及重视练习可知这使得我们很突出，故选A项。set...apart “使……突出”。 set aside “留出，把……放在一边”；set off “动身，启程”；set back “使退步，阻碍，(把钟)往回拨”。
30．C 解析：本句主要叙述的是自己紧张的生活，不仅要进行大运动量的训练而且每天的演出要多达五次，故选C项。
31．B 解析：经历了这么多之后我理解了“艰苦工作”的意义。meaning“意义”；fun_ction“功能，作用”；expression“表情”；usage“用法”。
32．A 解析：根据下文我使我的表现总比上一次要好可知我的体能极限超过我原来认为可能达到的水平。boundary“极限”；problem“问题”；barrier “障碍”；effort“努力”。
33．D 解析：参照32题解析。
34．B 解析：我有幸成为这个公司的一部分，不仅仅是作为一个成员而且还是一个舞蹈队长。have the honor of “有幸……”；talent “才能，才干”；potential“潜力”；responsibility“责任”。
35．C 解析：本句点明了全文的中心：公司的传统就是它不仅鼓励小女孩一代，使一个优秀的公司不断地成长进步，而且每天鼓励着人们去追逐他们的梦想，故选C项。
Ⅲ.
答案：36．D 解析：词义猜测题。由上文的“However，being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.”以及下文的“but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place”可知，我们已过度消费了本不需要的原料。故画线单词的意思与D项接近。
37．D 解析：推理判断题。包装造成的浪费在1999到2005六年间已上升12%，占家庭浪费平均数的三分之一。这不难看出，作者列举这些数字的目的是告诉我们一个事实：过度包装造成了很大的浪费。
38．A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第三句“If such packaging is burnt，it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps，but the process itself uses energy.”可以推出，回收利用帮助人们控制温室效应，不过这个过程本身也会浪费能源。
Ⅳ.
答案：39．energy 40.Situation 41.Causes 42.Solutions 43.energy efficient 44.Advantages 45.lower 46．a/one 47.longer 48.appliances/electronics

答案：Dear Li Hua，
How are you？With this letter I'd like to introduce my hometown—Jiangsu Province to you.
Situated in the east of China，Jiangsu is one of the most developed provinces of our country.It is a province with a large population of 70,000,000 but not much farmland for people to live on，and it lacks natural resources with an area of more than 100,000 km2.
With the development of economy and growth of its population，more and more good farmland has been used to build houses and factories.As a result，farmland is decreasing year by year.Fortunately people are realizing the importance of protecting farmland and the government has taken measures to stop the illegal use of farmland.
In my opinion，it's our duty to protect our farmland as well as our obligation to benefit the younger generations.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes.
Yours，
Wu Ming
