Question

  Going green seems to be a fad(日寸尚) for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad,we can't really say,but for the two of us,going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.

  On April 22,2011,we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 dif?ferent green things,and it also meant challenging our?selves to go green beyond the easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy,we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.

  With the idea of going green every single day for a year,Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.

  Over the course of Our Green Year,we complete?ly changed our lifestyles. We now shop at organic(有機的) stores. We consume less meat,choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice,with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter,enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing some?thing ungreen might be punished.

  Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.

本文主要講述了一對夫婦在一年的時間里做了不同的支持環(huán)保的事情。

1.A主旨大意題。文章第一段提出本文主題"對我們來說，支持環(huán)保(going green) 不是追求時尚而是一種生活方式"，所以選A。

2.D細節(jié)理解題。第二段第二句"這意味著做365件不同的環(huán)保事情"，說明他們感覺過綠色生活困難的原因是需要做不同的環(huán)保任務(wù)，所以選D。

3.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第一句"我們完全改變了我們的生活方式"及倒數(shù)第二段剩下的內(nèi)容可知選A。

4.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中描述"我們的思想已經(jīng)發(fā)生變化，我們相信我們的確有能力改變一些事情并幫助我們的星球。"說明這對夫婦將來還會繼續(xù)他們的環(huán)保事業(yè)。
