Question

【題目】 When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world's paper is used for books and newspapers.

Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men sleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland, it is sometimes-40℃ in winter. The farmers wear paper boots(靴子)in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.

Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. Besides paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you may throw them away and buy new ones.

The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.

【解析】

本文介紹了紙張的用途，除了用來印刷報紙和書之外，還有很多其他的用途。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。print(印刷)newspapers and books印刷報紙和書；help the homeless people幫助無家可歸的人；make chairs, tables and beds做椅子，桌子，床。根據(jù)第一段“Only half of the world's paper is used for books and newspapers.”可知只有一半的紙是用來印刷報紙和書的。故選A。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。to feel much cooler感覺更涼快；to keep their feet warm讓腳保暖；to save a lot of money省錢。根據(jù)第二段“The farmers wear paper boots(靴子)in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.”，可知紙靴能保暖，故選B。

【3】推理判斷題。big and strong enough to live in for many years足夠大和結(jié)實來住上很多年；made for children to play in or for homeless men to live in用來讓孩子們在里面玩或讓無家可歸的人��；not expensive and easy to build up不貴且易建造。根據(jù)“you can use it for about five years.”，可知A選項錯誤；根據(jù)“These are not small houses for children to play in,”可知B選項錯誤；根據(jù)“You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours,”可知紙房子不貴且易建造，C選項正確，故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。use it for a long time使用很長一段時間；lend it to others把它借給別人；throw it away扔掉。根據(jù)第三段“When you have used them once, you may throw them away and buy new ones.”可知，在使用一次后可以扔掉它再買新的。故選C。

【5】主旨大意題。依據(jù)第三段的主旨句“more and more things are made of paper.”可知選擇B；A,C選項只是總括的基礎(chǔ)上所舉的例子。故選B。
