Ⅲ.閱讀理解

Words：444　難度系數(shù)：☆☆☆　建議用時：7′

(2011年廈門質(zhì)量檢查)Experts say that agriculture provides fourteen percent of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions each year.The gases released include carbon dioxide，a major cause of global warming.

Twenty－one nations around the world recently joined forces to better understand and prevent greenhouse gas emissions from farms.The Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases was launched at the United Nations conference on climate change.The meeting took place in Copenhagen，Denmark last month.

Agricultural experts blame a number of farm activities for producing greenhouse gases.For example，animal waste and cattle digestive systems release methane(甲烷，沼氣)gas.Fertilized soil and the burning of crop waste also release harmful gases into the air.Experts say some methods of farming—turning the soil to prepare for planting—also release harmful carbon dioxide.

An official of the European Commission’s Directorate General for Research says agricultural greenhouse gas emissions can be cut.Maive Rute suggests feeding animals a diet designed to reduce emissions.

The new agricultural research group says protecting against global warming is only part of its purpose.It says the world also needs to develop better farming methods to feed growing populations in poor countries.

United States Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said no one single nation can fight agricultural greenhouse gas emissions and increase food production at the same time.This is why the alliance is important for combining resources and finding new ones.

The United States Department of Agriculture will increase spending on farm emissions research by ninety million dollars over the next four years.The total will reach one hundred and thirty million dollars.The U．S.D.A.will share the research with other countries in the Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases and support researchers from developing countries that belong to the alliance.Money from the Borlaug Fellowship Program will let the researchers study agricultural climate change with American scientists.

Mister Vilsack said that just as climate change has no borders，there should be no borders for research.

【解題導(dǎo)語】　研究發(fā)現(xiàn)農(nóng)業(yè)排放的溫室氣體占全球總排放量的14%，要解決這個問題需要進(jìn)行國際間的合作。

1．In Paragraph 4，Maive Rute recommends __________.

A．increasing food production

B．changing cattle digestive systems

C．developing better farming methods

D．giving animals the food meant to produce fewer emissions

解析：選D?？疾榧?xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知Maive Rute建議給動物喂特制的食物以減少溫室氣體的排放。

2．The underlined word“alliance”in Paragraph 6 probably means __________.

A．a(chǎn)ction or state being joined together

B．a(chǎn)n agreement signed between countries

C．a(chǎn) program or project set up for a research

D．a(chǎn)n organization formed for different goals

解析：選A?？疾樵~義猜測。根據(jù)第六段可知沒有一個國家能僅靠自己同時去解決溫室氣體排放和糧食增產(chǎn)的問題，因此，需要國與國之間的聯(lián)合，A項符合此意。

3．How much has the U．S.D.A.spent on farm emissions research so far?

A．130 million dollars. B．220 million dollars.

C．40 million dollars. D．90 million dollars.

解析：選C?？疾榧?xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“increase...by ninety million dollars”和“The total will reach one hundred and thirty million dollars”可知，迄今為止花費在氣體排放研究上的費用是40 million dollars。

4．The purpose of the passage is to __________.

A．suggest a total ban on farm activities

B．introduce the Copenhagen conference held last month

C．a(chǎn)ppeal to more countries to cut agricultural emissions

D．inform readers of the major cause of global warming

解析：選C。考查寫作目的。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容尤其是文章第六段和最后一段可知，作者寫作本文的目的是呼吁更多的國家來減少溫室氣體排放。

Ⅳ.書面表達(dá)

(浙江金華一中2011屆高三年級月考)你的朋友李煒來信說他一直為英語學(xué)習(xí)而苦惱。他發(fā)現(xiàn)美國人和英國人說的英語不光口音上有差別，而且有時在用詞和拼寫方面也有差別，他甚至不知道是說英國口音好還是美國口音好。他很想提高自己的口語水平。請在回信中給予幫助。

要點：

1．美國是個多文化的國家，其語言糅合了多個不同國家的詞匯，各種語言和文化相互影響。

2．無所謂哪種口音更好，只要語言能夠促進(jìn)有效的溝通和交流，能夠準(zhǔn)確地表達(dá)想法。

3．提高口語要自信，又要積極參與課堂的討論，在“說”中提高。

4．詞數(shù)：100左右。

One possible version：

Dear Li Wei，

I am glad to hear from you.In your letter you said you were having trouble in learning English.Indeed，English spoken in the US differs from that in UK for a variety of reasons.As we know，the United States is a multicultural country，whose language has brought in many different words from other languages.Many of the cultures and words have a deep effect on each other.As a matter of fact，it doesn’t make much difference whether you speak with an British or American accent.The only purpose is always an effective and efficient communication，and an exact expression of ideas.In my view，you need confidence to improve your spoken English，and you need to actively join in the classroom discussions as well，just to improve through speaking.

I hope you can achieve great success in English.
