三、阅读理解
There has been a dramatic increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years,and it is believed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disasters in the future.Some of the world’s leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.
London
London’s flood defences are getting older.Since 1982,the Thames Barrier(水闸) has protected the city from the threat of flooding,but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years.About 26 years later the barrier closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions,by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.
There are 26 underground stations,400 schools,16 hospitals,an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London’s flood risk area,so large scale flooding would be disastrous.
Paris
Over a six-week period in July and August 2003,more than 11,400—mainly elderly people—died in France from dehydration(脱水) and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave.Heat waves of similar intensity(强度) are expected every seven years by 2050.So what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again
One solution is to have air conditioners installed in elderly care homes.But this is considered a short-term solution,as the increase in demand for electricity also increases carbon emissions.
In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building “Flower Tower”,which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air conditioner.
Shanghai
Shanghai is one of the fastest growing cities on the Earth.It has a population of about 24 million and is only about 4 metres above sea level.Sea level is predicted to rise by 20cm within the next century.
1.What problem should be settled now in London
A.How to protect the city’s property.
B.Where to build its flood defences.
C.How to use the Thames Barrier to protect the city.
D.How to improve the function of the old flood defences.
2.Which of the following measures CAN’T solve the heat wave disaster in Paris
A.Putting up new types of buildings with a covering of bamboo.
B.Having air conditioners installed in elderly care homes.
C.Forbidding the city to build “Flower Tower”.
D.Encouraging architects to design new types of buildings.
3.What is the purpose of the passage
A.To tell us how to protect the big cities.
B.To give advice on how to defend natural disasters.
C.To explain what causes floods and heat waves.
D.To warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big cities.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A.Big Cities Facing Big Disasters
B.Big Disasters in the Future
C.The Increase of Natural Disasters
D.Solutions to Natural Disasters

6.答案:failed to
7.答案:make use of
8.答案:had an effect on
9.答案:in such a way
10.答案:on the edge of
11.答案:D
解析:细节理解题。由London中的“but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years...by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed”提到了伦敦防洪工事老化,不能应对新出现的情况,由此判断D项正确。
12.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。在介绍巴黎时,说到了解决问题的两种办法,一种是使用空调,但这种办法不是长久之计;另外一种就是在建筑上使用竹子屋顶型的花塔,所以A、B、D三项均正确,而C项forbidding正好与文章要表达的意思相反,故选C项。
13.答案:D
解析:推理判断题。作者在文章首段提到全球变暖会造成灾难,然后列举了伦敦、巴黎和上海几个大城市所面临的潜在的自然灾害问题。由此可知,作者是想警告人们逐渐增加的自然灾害,故选D项。
14.答案:A
解析:标题归纳题。全文描述了世界各大城市(London,Paris,Shanghai)将会面临的各种自然灾害,故“Big Cities Facing Big Disasters”适合作为本文标题,故选A项。
15.答案:A
解析:through“通过”。“我”开车经过一个当地乡村。
16.答案:C
解析:destination“目的地”。这句话形容的是上文中作者开车的状态,表明脑海里没有目的地。
17.答案:D
解析:suddenly “突然”。前一段描述的是惬意无压力的场面,这里引入其他事件,突然,“我”遇到了一辆车。故选D项。
18.答案:B
解析:watch“看到”。句意:我看到一个老妇人从车里出来并走向沟渠。
19.答案:A
解析:concerned“关心的”。上一句说到“我”对老妇人可能遇到的麻烦的猜测,所以这里,“我”很担忧。
20.答案:B
解析:assistance“帮助”。“我”想看看是否能对老妇人有任何帮助。故选B项。
21.答案:C
解析:tell“告诉”。她告诉“我”,她刚停下来是为了捡垃圾。故选C项。
22.答案:D
解析:thoughtlessly“不假思索地”。老妇人捡的是游客从车中随意抛掷出的垃圾。这种行为的产生是由于扔垃圾的人对环境污染的后果没有思考,故选D项。
23.答案:D
解析:invite“邀请”。根据下文可知,此处应该是“她邀请‘我’看看她的车里”。故选D项。
24.答案:B
解析:collect“收集”。根据原文可知,老妇人的车里已经堆集了很多垃圾。故选B项。
25.答案:A
解析:local“当地的”。“我”告诉老妇人,我为当地报纸写文章。故选A项。
26.答案:C
解析:hesitation“犹豫”。老妇人毫不犹豫地拒绝了。without hesitation“毫不犹豫”。
27.答案:B
解析:thankful“感激的”。此处是“我”给读者的建议,也是本文的写作目的:下次开车外出时,你应当感谢周围这些地球环境的保护者们。
28.答案:D
解析:part“部分”。“little part of”为常见搭配,此处意为:花点时间为保持道路的整洁做一点儿小贡献。
29.答案:A
解析:contribute“贡献”。注意此处是contribute to doing sth的结构,再结合上文“为保护我们的美丽家园做点贡献”可知,A项符合语境。
