B.Thetablet.C.TheLCDTV. D.Thedesktopcomputer.B解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后一句“Theyfoundthatmoreon-demandentertainmentviewingontabletsinsteadofTVsanddesktopcomputerscouldcutenergyconsumptionby44%”可知,用平板電腦替換電視機(jī)和臺式電腦會節(jié)省44%的能耗,根據(jù)第二段中的“LCDTVsentered...showedupin2007”可知,平板電腦應(yīng)比液晶電視耗能低,故選B項(xiàng)。4.Whatdoesthetextsuggestpeopledoaboutoldelectronicdevices?A.Stopusingthem. B.Takethemapart.C.Upgradethem. D.Recyclethem.A解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段第二句中的“theresearchersalsoexploredwhatwouldhappenifconsumersreplacedoldproductswithnewelectronicsthatservemorethanonefunction”可推斷出,文章建議用多功能的新設(shè)備來替換過時設(shè)備,即停止使用過時設(shè)備,故選A項(xiàng)。takeapart“拆卸”;upgrade“使升級”;recycle“回收利用”。B(2019·江西名校聯(lián)盟檢測)Foroveracentury,theNashuaRiverinMassachusettsprovidedpowerformills(工廠),whichgavejobstothousandsofpeople.Overtheyears,thesepaper,cotton,wood,andwoolenmillshaddumpedtheirwasteintoitswaters.Bythe1960s,theNashuaRiverwasaboutaspollutedasanyrivercouldget.Itswatersranredorgreenorbluewithdye(染料)frompapermillssituatedonitsbanks.Thefumes(煙)fromthisdyeblackenedthepaintonthebuildingsneartheriver.ThenalongcameMarionStoddartwithasimplebutoverwhelmingidea—cleanuptheNashua.Thiswasnoone-womancampaign.Stoddartencouragedthepapermillsandthebusinesscommunitytoformpartnershipstoreclaimtheriver.Shecarriedjarsofdirtyriverwatertolocalofficialstodemonstratetheseriousnessoftheproblem.Stoddarttalkedwithbusinessleadersabouteconomicproblems.Shetalkedwithenvironmentalistsaboutthelong-termproblemsofpollution.StoddartknewthattheStateWaterPollutionControlBoardwouldhavethefinalsayonforcingtheclean-up.Whenshespoketotheboard,sheinsistedthattheNashuashouldbemadesafeforswimming.Theythoughthergoalswereunrealistic.However,thepartnershipsStoddarthadhelpedformandthevolunteerswhoweredrawntohercausenevergaveup.Theyallrealizedthatcleaninguptheriverwasineveryone’sbestinterests.By1993,severalwatertreatmentplantshadbeenbuilt,andaconservationareacalleda“greenway”hadbeencreatedalongthebanksoftheriver.Todaymillsarestilloperatingalongtheriver,buttherearealsofishintheriver.TheNashuaRiverwelcomesboaters,naturalists,andevenswimmers.Noneofthiswouldhavebeenpossiblewithoutawomanofvisionandacommunityworkingtogether.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文講的是MarionStoddart如何聯(lián)合個體、團(tuán)體和政府部門共同治理河水污染的事。5.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“reclaim”referto?A.Rescue. B.Enlarge.C.Monitor. D.Explore.A解析:詞義猜測題。結(jié)合語境及上下文中出現(xiàn)的“cleanuptheNashua”“theclean-up”“cleaninguptheriver”等信息可知,此處指的應(yīng)是河流治理方面的內(nèi)容,由此可推知畫線詞的意思應(yīng)是“改造”,與A項(xiàng)意思相近,故選A。6.What’stheboard’sattitudetoStoddart’sgoalofimprovingtheriver?A.Supportive. B.Doubtful.C.Neutral. D.Cautious.B解析:觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)第四段中的“Whenshespoketotheboard...Theythoughthergoalswereunrealistic.”可知,該委員會認(rèn)為Stoddart改善河流狀況的目標(biāo)不切實(shí)際,即持懷疑的態(tài)度,故選B。7.WhatkindofpersonisMarionStoddart?A.Independentandbroad-minded.B.Determinedandfar-sighted.C.Intelligentandcreative.D.Stubbornandproud.B解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三、四段中對Stoddart為了改善河流狀況東奔西走的描述及最后一段中的“awomanofvision”可知,MarionStoddart是一個有決心和有遠(yuǎn)見卓識的人。故選B。8.Whatmessageisconveyedthroughthenoone-womancampaign?A.It’llbeallrightonthenight.B.Preventionisbetterthancure.C.Manyhandsmakelightwork.D.Failureisthemotherofsuccess.C解析:推理判斷題。通讀全文可知,改善納舒厄河被污染的現(xiàn)狀并不是Stoddart一個人的戰(zhàn)斗,她還積極地聯(lián)合個體、團(tuán)隊和政府部門共同治理河水污染,并最終收到成效。由此可知,C項(xiàng)“眾人拾柴火焰高”符合題意。eq\a\vs4\al(Ⅱ)七選五(2019·廣州檢測)Philadelphiaisacityknownformanythings.ItiswheretheDeclarationofIndependencewassignedin1776,anditwasalsothefirstcapitaloftheUnitedStates.1.________Itishometonearly3,000murals(壁畫)paintedonthesidesofhomesandbuildingsaroundthecity.That’smoremuralsthananyothercityonEarth.2.________Morethan20yearsago,aNewJerseyartistnamedJaneGoldenstartedaprogrampairingtroubledyouthwithartiststopaintmuralsonafewbuildingsaroundthecity.3.________Theteenagersinvolvedhelpedtocreatemagnificentpiecesofart,andtherewereother,evenmoreimportant,benefits.Theyoungpeoplelearnedtocooperateandgetalongwithmanydifferentkindsofpeopleduringthepainting.Theylearnedtoberesponsible,becausetheyneededtofollowascheduletomakesurethemuralswerecompleted.4.________ItishardforanyonetoseethespectaculardesignsandnotfeelproudtobeapartofPhiladelphia.TakeawalkaroundsomeofthepoorestneighbourhoodsinPhiladelphiaandyouwillfindbeautifulworksofartonthesidesandfrontsofbuildings.Ofcoursethemuralsarenotjustinpoorneighbourhoods,butricheronesaswell.Specialbusestaketouriststodifferentpartsofthecitytoseethevariousmurals,whichshowthediverseethnicgroupsthatcallPhiladelphiahome.5.________ItisalsoamodelforothercitiesthroughoutAmericaseekingtohelptroubledyouth.A.Howdidthiscometobe?B.Whathappenedtothemuralsonearth?C.Theyalsolearnedtotakeprideintheircommunity.D.ButonefactaboutPhiladelphiaisnotsowell-known.E.Fromthissmallproject,somethingmagicalhappened.F.Theprogramencouragedtroubledyouthtopainttogetherwiththeirteachers.G.Asaresultofitssuccess,themuralprogramhasnowbecomethenation’slargestpublicartprogram.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇說明文,主要介紹了費(fèi)城壁畫的發(fā)展歷史及其重大意義。1.D解析:由本段第一句可知,費(fèi)城因?yàn)樵S多東西而聞名。D項(xiàng)“但是有一個事實(shí)不是很為人所知”是對前文的轉(zhuǎn)折,同時引出本文所要介紹的內(nèi)容,承上啟下,符合語境。故選D項(xiàng)。2.A解析:上一句介紹了費(fèi)城擁有比世界其他城市都多的壁畫;下文介紹了費(fèi)城壁畫發(fā)展的歷史。A項(xiàng)“這是怎么出現(xiàn)的?”承上啟下,符合語境。故選A項(xiàng)。3.E解析:根據(jù)下一句中的“therewereother,evenmoreimportant,benefits”可知,這些問題少年參與到壁畫的創(chuàng)作中,并且在這個過程中帶來了更重要的益處。E項(xiàng)“從這個小小的項(xiàng)目中,一些神奇的事情發(fā)生了”引出了對壁畫益處的介紹,符合語境。故選E項(xiàng)。4.C解析:根據(jù)下一句“Itishardforanyone...notfeelproudtobeapartofPhiladelphia.”可知,人們開始將這些壁畫當(dāng)作是費(fèi)城引以為傲的一部分。C項(xiàng)意為“他們同樣學(xué)會了為自己的社區(qū)感到驕傲”,句中的“also”承接上文,takepridein與下文中的“feelproud”相呼應(yīng),承上啟下,符合語境。故選C項(xiàng)。5.G解析:根據(jù)下一句“Itisalsoamodelforothercities...”可知,最后總結(jié)了壁畫對費(fèi)城產(chǎn)生的影響。G項(xiàng)意為“由于它的成功,這個壁畫項(xiàng)目已經(jīng)成為整個國家最大的公共藝術(shù)項(xiàng)目”,是對費(fèi)城壁畫的地位評價,總結(jié)全文,符合語境。故選G項(xiàng)。eq\a\vs4\al(Ⅲ)短文改錯(2019·鄭州一中上學(xué)期高三入學(xué)測試)TheincidenthadhappenedonmywaytoabookstoreontherainySundayafternoon.Iwaswaitingforthegreen
