There are energy savings to be made from all recyclable materials,sometimes huge savings.Recycling plastics and aluminum,for instance,uses only 5% to 10% as much energy as producing new plastic or smelting (提炼) aluminum.
Long before most of us even noticed what we now call “the environment,” Buckminster Fuller said,“Pollution is nothing but the resources (资源) we are not harvesting.We allow them to be left around because we’ve been ignorant of their value.” To take one example,let’s compare the throwaway economy (经济) with a recycling economy as we feed a cat for life.
Say your cat weighs 5kg and eats one can of food each day.Each empty can of its food weighs 40g.In a throwaway economy,you would throw away 5,475 cans over the cat’s 15-year lifetime.That’s 219kg of steel—more than a fifth of a ton and more than 40 times the cat’s weight.
In a recycling economy,we would make one set of 100 cans to start with,and then replace them over and over again with recycled cans.Since almost 3% of the metal is lost during reprocessing,we’d have to make an extra 10 cans each year.But in all,only 150 cans will be used up over the cat’s lifetime—and we’ll still have 100 left over for the next cat.
Instead of using up 219kg of steel,we’ve use only 6kg.And because the process of recycling steel is less polluting than making new steel,we’ve also achieved the following significant savings:in energy use—47% to 74%;in air pollution—85%;in water pollution—35%;in water use—40%.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。回收利用比重新生产要节省大量的资源。文章以猫食罐头为例,通过对比分析不同的结果,说明了循环经济在减少环境污染以及能源消耗方面的优势。 1.What does Buckminster Fuller say about pollution? A.It is becoming more serious. B.It destroys the environment. C.It benefits the economy.
D.It is the resources yet to be used. 答案D 解析细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting.”可知,Buckminster Fuller认为污染就是我们还没有回收利用的资源。故选D项。 2.How many cans will be used up in a cat’s 15-year lifetime in a recycling economy?
A.50. 答案C B.100. C.150. D.250.
解析细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“In a recycling economy”以及“But in all,only 150 cans will be used up over the cat’s lifetime”可知,答案为C项。 3.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A.To promote the idea of recycling. B.To introduce an environmentalist. C.To discuss the causes of pollution. D.To defend the throwaway economy. 答案A 解析写作意图题。文章以猫食罐头为例,说明了循环经济在减少环境污染以及能源消耗方面的优势,目的是为了推广“回收利用”的理念。故选A项。

Nobel Prize-winning author Doris Lessing has said winning the Nobel Prize in 2007 had been a “bloody disaster”.
The increased media interest in her has meant that writing a full novel was next to impossible,she said.
Lessing,88,also said she would probably now be giving up writing novels.Her latest book is the partly fictional memoir(虚幻小说) entitled Alfred and Emily.Since her Nobel win she has been constantly in demand,she said.“All I do is give interviews and spend time being photographed.”
Speaking about her writing,she said:“It has stopped;I don’t have any energy any more.”Lessing is the 11th woman to win the Nobel Prize for literature in its 106-year history.Her best known works include The Golden Notebook and The Diaries of Jane Somers(《萨默斯的日记》).
She also recalled that,in the 1960s,she had been told that the Nobel Academy’s judges did not like her and she would never win.Ill-health prevented her from attending the prize ceremony in Stockholm,Sweden.
Instead the Swedish Ambassador to London,Staffan Carlsson,presented the award to her in the UK.He told her she was being “crowned with a prize you have long deserved”.
Lessing was born in Iran and moved to Rhodesia—now Zimbabwe—as a child before settling in England in 1949.
Her first novel The Grass Is Singing was published the following year.Altogether she has written more than 50 novels,plays,memoirs and collections of short stories.

Nowadays,the problem of generation gap becomes more and more serious.Based on the survey by our school,the poor relationship between parents and their children is very common.1. Or,do the strict family rules affect their relationship?
Firstly,in most of the families in the US,both of the parents have to go out for work in order to earn more money to provide better environment for their lovely children.Unfortunately,this causes the rare communication between them and their children,since these parents always take a rest during leisure time.These parents and children cannot know deeply about each other.Then friction(摩擦) is easy to appear.2. Secondly,parents who ask their children to be absolutely obedient to them are also one of the grave causes of generation gap between them.Therefore,these children are
not willing to communicate with their parents and most of these parents are not active to talk with their children.3.
To solve these problems,the busy parents should devote their spare time to communicating with their children actively so as to improve their relationship.At the same time,they can also observe their children’s behavior in order to understand their children’s personality and reduce the quarrel between them.
4. No doubt that can give a better image to their children since it can make their children feel free to chat with their parents.Then it is easy for the parents to approach their lovely children.Therefore,a close and harmonious relationship between parents and children appears.
In conclusion,to have a close relationship between parents and children,the parents should devote their leisure time to talking with their children and observing their children’s personality and give their children the approaching images.5. A.Therefore,a wide generation gap comes into being. B.Thus,misunderstanding between them often occurs. C.Are these problems caused by the busy parents? D.Who are these problems more upsetting to?
E.If so,this terrible phenomenon,generation gap,cannot occur any more. F.In fact most parents and children experience at least a little tension. G.Besides that,the parents should try to give up their absolute power in family. 答案与解析 【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章从三个方面讨论如何使父母与孩子建立良好的关系。 1.C 该空前面讲现在父母与孩子关系紧张很普遍,该空后面以疑问的形式提出了另一种可能的原因,所以该空也应该是以疑问的形式提出一种可能的原因。
2.A 该空前面“both of the parents have to go out for work in order to...to appear”讲了孩子与父母摩擦的产生,紧接着就应该是讲其后果。选项A正是产生摩擦后的后果。 3.B 该空前面讲孩子与父母缺少沟通交流,紧接着就应该是讲其后果。选项B正是其后果。 4.G 该空上一段“To solve these problems,the busy parents should devote their spare time to...”讲父母为缓解与孩子的紧张关系应该挤出时间多与孩子交流,该空后面讲父母应该在孩子心目中树立良好的形象,故而该空应该是承上启下。G项里的Besides that正是承上启下。 5.E 通读本段内容可知,作者讲的是为了与孩子建立良好的关系,父母应该怎么做。只有E项能作为其结果。 Ⅲ.应用文写作

4、成功与失败种子，如果害怕埋没，那它永远不能发芽。鲜花，如果害怕凋谢，那它永远不能开放。矿石，如果害怕焚烧（熔炉），那它永远不能成钢（炼成金子）。蜡烛，如果害怕熄灭（燃烧），那它永远不能发光。航船，如果害怕风浪，那它永远不能到达彼岸。

7、一粒种子，可以无声无息地在泥土里腐烂掉，也可以长成参天的大树。 一块铀块，可以平庸无奇地在石头里沉睡下去，也可以产生惊天动地的力量。一个人，可以碌碌无为地在世上厮混日子，也可以让生命发出耀眼的光芒。
8、青春是一首歌，她拨动着我们年轻的心弦；青春是一团火，她点燃了我们沸腾的热血； 青春是一面旗帜，她召唤着我们勇敢前行；青春是一本教科书，她启迪着我们的智慧和心灵。
