Module 6
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2015·河南开封市高三模拟)
Nowadays many people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are concerned about the problem of what to do with electronic waste such as old televisions, computers, radios, cellular telephones and other electronic equipment.
Electronic trash, or ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) e－waste, is piling up faster than ever in American homes and businesses. People do not know what to do with old televisions or computers so they throw them in the trash.
National Solid Waste ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Management Association (NSWMA) state programs director Chaz Miller says the large amount of electronic waste Americans product is not unexpected.
The US Enviro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates more than 400 million consumer electronic items are dumped each year, and there is a push by more states to ban the waste from landfills (垃圾填埋场) and create recycling programs. They can be torn apart and sorted for useable parts. Mike Fannon who runs the plant in Baltimore says, “There are lots of valuable metals that can be recovered and reused instead of just putting them in the landfill, and in certain components there are some materials that should not really be in the landfill. ”
Fannon says nearly ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )20 percent of electronic waste is recycled nationwide. Thirteen years ago, it was only about 6 percent. Recycling rates continue to rise as more communities have banned electronics from landfills in order to keep e－waste poisons like lead (铅) and mercury (汞) out of garbage dumps.
This year several ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) states like Vermont imposed a ban on electronic waste in landfills. More than 25 other states have also adopted bans on e－waste in landfills. Chaz Miller says more can be done to boost electronic waste recycling.
“We can do much ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )better，” noted Miller. “I think clearly our goal should be to do as well as we do recycling newspapers.”

How to Love Your Parents
Even if you think ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that your parents are mean－spirited at times，loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.You love them for the fact that they created you，raised you，and are in part a source of who you are.Here are some ways to love your parents.
__1__ A gentle “goo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart.Remember that they brought you into this world.Without your parents，you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world.
Respect them more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and cherish these moments.You can use these moments to learn from them for when you're off on your own.It's OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents.Act calmly，cool off, journal about your feelings，or talk to a friend.__2__ Obey their requests.It will make your attitude better and earn you more respect from them.It may seem like you are going through hell when you don't get what you want or you have to clean.However，you had better remember they keep a roof over your head when it's cold, raining，snowing，or too hot.Understand that parents are human beings and make mistakes.__3__.Since you can forgive your friends，why not forgive your parents

语篇解读：这是说明文阅读。文章主要介绍了一些爱父母的方法。我们要爱自己的父母，因为是他们创造了我们，养育了我们。
1．B 根据空后的A gentle “go ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )od morning” and “I love you” will warm a coldest heart与B Tell them you love them every morning中的关键词morning可知答案选B。
2．D 根据前句“It's ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )OK to get angry but angry actions don't help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, write down your feelings, or talk to a friend.”生气没有关系，但是生气帮不了你或者你的父母。冷静下来，消消气，写下你的感受，或者和朋友聊聊。可知，下面讲的内容还是关于生气后该做的事情，浏览七个选项可以发现，只有D：After this, share your feelings with your parents(之后，和你的父母分享你的感受)符合段落内容。故选D。
3．A “Understand tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t parents are human beings and make mistakes.Since you can forgive your friends, why not forgive your parents？”要理解父母都是普通的人，都会犯错误。既然你可以原谅你的朋友们，为什么不能谅解你的父母呢？所以中间一句应该也是关于“理解和原谅的”，只有A选项Forgiveness is the key.(谅解是关键)符合要求。故选A。
4．E 根据前文“Keep compa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ny with them.Do things with your parents like watching TV, or go somewhere with them.Listen to their old stories and learn from them.”陪伴着他们。和你的父母一起做一些事情，例如看电视，或者和他们一起去一些地方。听听他们的老故事，从中学习一些东西。可知，这一段重要讲花时间陪伴父母。浏览选项，E：Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can(无论如何，要尽可能地多花点时间陪着他们。)符合文章语境，故选E。
5．G “Some people sim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ply may not be able to love their parents. 5 Seek help if you are being abused in anyway.Parents do not have a right to harm you.”有些人不能够爱他们的父母。如果你在某些方面被他们虐待，你要寻求帮助。父母没有权利伤害你。分析语境可知，有些人不能爱他们的父母原因可能是被虐待。所以中间应该填“这可能有一些原因”。浏览选项G. “There can be realistic reasons for this, family violence for example.”这可能有一些现实的原因，例如家庭暴力。故选G。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
“Confidence” is pr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )obably one of the most noticeable traits (特点) in the Americans.They show confidence in the way they talk，the way they smile，the way they dress and the way they walk.Living and competing with all these confident American students，I find it extremely important to be confident as an international student and a foreign instructor.As a student，being confident means you should never hesitate to raise your hand whenever a question or a point comes to your mind.Don’t mind if it sounds simple or silly.Otherwise you will never get a chance to speak in class at all.What’s worse，the professors may think you are not prepared for the discussion or you do not have your own opinion on the issue—this is the last comment any graduate would like to receive.
Being confident ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )for me as a foreign instructor means calmly asking the student to repeat what he or she has said if I did not get it.Pretending to understand what you actually do not may just bring yourself embarrassment or even disgrace.But the time I most need to be confident is when my students come to my office and bargain about the grades I have given for their speeches (The course I’m teaching here is Public Speaking)．Modesty is a trait highly valued in China，but it won’t be of much help here if you want to survive and succeed in a good American graduate program.
1．To compete with American students it’s very important to________.
A．be quite confident
B．be polite and friendly
C．have more discussions with them
D．understand what they think about
2．A professor will have the worst opinion of a student who________.
A．gives a silly or simple answer
B．tries to seize any chance to speak in class
C．shows no interest in the course
D．is considered to have no opinion of his own
3．The author is most likely to feel embarrassed if________.
A．he asks a student to repeat what he has said
B．the students bargain with him
C．he pretends to know what he doesn’t
D．he has to give a speech
4．The passage is mainly developed by________.
A．providing examples
B．making comparisons
C．giving different figures
D．telling personal experiences
【语篇解读】 谦虚是中华民族的传统美德，可是在美国，自信却尤为重要。
1．A [考查细节理解。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )根据第一段第三句“Living and competing with all these confident American students，I find it extremely important to be confident as...”可知自信尤为重要。]
2．D [考查推理判断。根据第一段最后一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句可知如果学生不自信，不积极发言，教授会认为他没有准备好讨论或者没有自己独特的见解，故而会对他评价很低，故D项正确。]
3．C [考查细节理解。根据第二段第二句话可知，不懂装懂可能会带来尴尬甚至是耻辱，故C项正确。]
4．D [考查篇章结构。整篇文章作者都是通过讲述自己的经历来阐述自信在美国的重要性，故D项正确。]
B
Butterfly garden ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s can be grown throughout the United States.There is a wide variety of both butterfly attracting (nectar) plants and host plants covering climate zones throughout the country.Butterfly gardens can range in size from a few containers placed in a sunny spot to several acres.
Nectar producing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) (产蜜的) plants will attract butterflies to your garden.In order to support a full butterfly life cycle，host plants (for laying eggs and used as a caterpillar food source) must also be present.
Throughout t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he country，the general requirements for butterfly gardening are the same：full sun，nectar source plants，larval (幼虫的) host plants，a pesticide free environment，and knowledge of the local butterfly species.Many butterfly attracting plants are natives and require little attention，as they are naturally adapted to the region in which they live.
Butterfly garde ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ns are best planted in spring with younger plants or in fall with mature plants that will become dormant quickly and re emerge in spring.It is best not to plant in the heat of summer or the cold of winter.
One of the most ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) common mistakes in butterfly gardening is planting only one nectar source.Adult butterflies have a very short lifespan.Planting a variety of nectar sources will encourage more butterflies to visit the garden.Planting an adequate supply of host plants gives butterflies a place to lay their eggs，which will successfully hatch (孵化) and result in butterflies that will continue to visit the garden.
Butterflies typic ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ally lay their eggs in late spring and hatch 3－6 days after they are laid.It takes 3－4 weeks for a caterpillar to pupate (化蛹) and 9－14 days to emerge as an adult.
