VI. 阅读理解：（AB层必做，C层选做）
Just like jeans, music and TV stars, holiday destinations come in and out of fashion. In 2013,
itwas all about Myanmar. The next year, it was Sri Lanka. So what place is everyone talking about
now? It is Antarctica (南极洲)，which is known to be the coldest, driest and windiest place
on earth.
Last year, I had the pleasure of visiting the Antarctic. I traveled there on an ice-breaker.
There
were 111 other tourists on board, including 11 Antarctic experts. I didn' t enjoy the trip at all at
the
beginning. For a start, there was a lecture (讲课) on board, and our 48-hour journey was
spent listening to introductions on the Antarctic, environmental protection and our safety
problems.
However, from the moment we got on the ship, our responsibility (责任) to this far-away
area was explained. There were rules to follow, and breaking them would not be allowed. We
understood that we all had a role to play in keeping Antarctica the way it was.
First, our coats would be checked by the experts. Each time we got on and off the ship, we
would wash and disinfect (给....消毒) our boots. Also, there would be no eating on land.
Finally, we weren’t allowed to take anything away other than photographs.
And you know what? None of these rules is hard to follow, because once you reach this
beautiful place, all you want is to feel and protect it. By day, we were guided by the lovely
experts, who explained penguins' behavior and talked to us about seals. Their love for the
area and their knowledge were inspiring and thanks to them, we learned a lot about the wildlife
in Antarctica and that we were destroying (破坏) the bottom of the food chain by fishing the
main food supply (食物供应) in the Southern Sea, which had caused the decline (减少)
in penguin, seal
and whale populations.
I came back with a wealth of knowledge that I knew 1 couldn' t get anywhere else.
( )1. Myanmar and Sri Lanka are mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show that______________.
A. jeans in the two countries are popular now
B. music is important to the two countries
C. the two countries have pollution problems
D. popular holiday destinations change every year
( )2. When were the rules explained to the writer?
A. When she made a request for the journey.
B. When she stepped on Antarctica.
C. As soon as she got on the ship.
D. After she broke a rule.
( )3. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Tourists were not allowed to take photographs in the Antarctic.
B. The writer went to Antarctica in the winter.C. Tourists were not allowed to eat on land.
D. There were 111 tourists on the ship.
( )4. What did the writer leam from the experts on the ship?
A. People were destroying the environment in Antarctica.
B. We' d better not go to Antarctica anymore.
C. Why people loved to fish in Antarctica.
D. How Antarctica was produced.
( )5. What would be the best title of the passage?
A. Experts traveling the Antarctic
B. A travel in Antarctica
C. How to protect Antarctica as a tourist
D. What to learn about Antarctica as a tourist
B
A. we can choose local products if possible
B. it's better than throwing things away or burning them
C. this also reduces pollution and waste going into the environment
D. we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones
E. we an stilll do something to help
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our
environment. Though we are young, (6)__________________. In fact, even the simplest everyday
activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a
green life.
Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.
Reduce means“use less". Don't waste things. This saves money and (7)__________________.
Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as
good! When we do buy things, (8)_________________, and try not to buy too many
things from abroad.
Reuse means "use again". Use things as long as possible. When we buy tings, make sure that
they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and (9)_______________.
Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because they
can be used again.
Recycle means“change things into something else". Although it takes energy, (10)_________.
Find out what can be recycled and take part in recycling programs. We should also buy products
made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
