A recent study found people's lives are made shorter in North China. It showed the life expectancy (平均壽命) had been cut by 5. 5 yeays there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame (承擔責任) . It's really the truth. Our government has already done something. However,it doesn’t seem to work so well.

   “Air pollution in China is doing harm to people's health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University,one of the researchers of this study.

   Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year,the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas (廢氣) from coal heating.

   Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses,ride bicycles or walk,instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.

   “We need to improve our environment,although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves”’ Li Hongbin,another researcher of the study said.

1. The passage above may come from a(n) .

   A. story   B. advertisement

   C. report   D. diary

2. Which of the following is Li Hongbin's idea?

   A. The lift expectancy had been cut by 5. 5 years.

   B. Chinese government should close some factories that pollute heavily.

   C. People need to make less pollution,although it might cost a lot.

   D. The air pollution brings us serious problems.

3. What's the main idea of the passage?

   A. Air pollution in North China is caused by waste gas.

   B. To save the environment,our government should do something more.

   C. The temperature becomes higher and higher in North China.

   D. How air pollution in North China is caused.

1. C 2. C 3. B

  一項最近的研究顯示,中國北方人平均壽命減少了 5. 5 年,研究者認為嚴重的空氣污染是造成這一后果的原因之 一。因此,我們的政府必須做出行動以保護我們賴以生存的 環(huán)境。

1. C推理判斷題。文章第一句的“ A recent study found... ”提示該文章可能來自一項研究報告。

2. C細節(jié)理解題。由最后一段第一句“We need to improve our environment,although it might be expensive. ”可知, 李洪彬認為雖然可能要付出很大代價,我們仍需要減 少污染,以保護環(huán)境。

3. B主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,第四段第一句“Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. ”是文章的主題句,也就是為了保護環(huán)境政府應該做更 多的事情,故選B項。

   Teenagers today are not as healthy as they were twenty years ago. Why?

   First of all,teenagers love junk food so much,as their best friends are hamburgers,pizza or spaghetti. Teenagers don't eat what it is best for their physical development and don't want to pay attention to all it's said about food and a healthy way of eating. On the contrary,it's also the case of the girls who keep strict diets so as to lose weight. They just want to be skinny (瘦的) as the models they read about in magazines or newspapers.

   Secondly,young persons nowadays do not spend much time in the middle of nature,walking in the park or going camping. In fact,TV, computer games,DVD players or music are much more interesting. Just imagine a mother calling her son to lunch and him shouting: “No,no ,I'm watching TV I'll eat later. ” He really doesn’t care that later he’ll eat alone,that he won’t have anyone to talk to. In this way communication between the members of the family becomes less important and finally it will disappear completely.

   Thirdly,parents are always worried when their children go to a disco or to a party,as they know how easily teenagers are tempted to try something new,just for fun. Trusting them and making them feel responsible for their actions is the solution to prevent future problems from appearing.

   To sum up,teenagers ought to take more care of their health as the environment is becoming more and more dangerous each day.
