解析試題分析：本文主要從人口增多談?wù)摥h(huán)境問題。今天人口的不斷增長使得地球越來越擁擠，食物缺乏，同時也帶來了諸如森林消失、魚類滅絕等問題，并提醒人們說如果繼續(xù)下去勢必會危及人們的生命。后面通過幾個 if 提出了幾種改變目前環(huán)境現(xiàn)狀的建議。
【小題1】B。由上句的“過去人們不必去想環(huán)境保護(hù)問題”及與下文的對比可知，此處說的是人們在過去的一種傾向——“地球上人少，自然資源似乎是無限的”。unlimited 意為“無限的，無窮盡的”。
【小題2】D。與上面說的“自然資源似乎是無限的”的傾向不同，“現(xiàn)在情況不同了，人口已越來越多”。
【小題3】A。由上文的人口增多聯(lián)想到“世界變得很擁擠”。
【小題4】C。前面有“我們很快就會用盡自然資源”，順此話意可推測后句應(yīng)為“同時我們正在用有毒的化學(xué)物質(zhì)污染著我們的環(huán)境”。
【小題5】B。針對上面出現(xiàn)的情況而作出的一種假設(shè)：如果繼續(xù)這樣做，人類生活將會在地球不復(fù)存在。continue to do this 在這里是接著上文提到的“我們正在用有毒的化學(xué)物質(zhì)污染著我們的環(huán)境”來說的。
【小題6】B。從下文的…there will be none left 及…more and more fish are caught 可看出，此處說的是“……如果太多的魚從海里捕撈上來，不久將不會再剩下魚了”。take 在這里指“打/捕撈(魚)”。
【小題7】C。句意為：使用現(xiàn)代的捕魚方法，越來越多的魚被捕撈到。若選 D，fishing poles 意為“釣魚桿”，在此不符合上下文。
【小題8】D。前面說過分捕魚會導(dǎo)致魚類消失，與此相似，如果過分砍伐樹木將會導(dǎo)致森林的消失。cut down 意為“砍伐”，其他選項不符合語境。
【小題9】A。前面說的是我們知道的砍伐樹木的事實及后果，而這里用 Yet道出現(xiàn)在人們不顧這些事實及后果，繼續(xù)使用大型有力的機(jī)器砍伐樹木的事實。
【小題10】D。從下文…in most countries wastes are ___12___ put into rivers or into the sea 等來看，此處說的是“我們意識到如果河水被從工廠排出的廢物污染的話，我們將會死亡”。
【小題11】B。前面說“我們意識到如果從工廠排出的廢物污染了河水的話，我們將會死亡”，這與下文的“在多數(shù)國家廢物仍排放到河流或大海中”構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，故用 however(然而)。
【小題12】 A。盡管人們已意識到污染這個問題，但人們?nèi)匀煌蠛＠锶永?br />【小題13】 D。上面說“人們?nèi)韵虼蠛＠锏估�，此處說是產(chǎn)生這種現(xiàn)象的因素，即“很少有法律阻止人們這樣做”。
【小題14】C。此處說的是對人口繼續(xù)增長的后果，即如果世界人口繼續(xù)以現(xiàn)在的速度增長，將沒有足夠的食物吃了。
【小題15】C。從…if that the population of the world continues to __14__ at the present rate 等可推測，此處說的是“食物”問題。即“幾年后將不會有足夠的吃的(東西)”，另外，從下一段的內(nèi)容也可得到提示。
【小題16】 B。從下句可知，“如果我們多吃蔬菜，少吃肉，將會給大家提供更多的糧食”。這也可從 vegetables 上得到啟發(fā)，此處說的是吃的，故用 meat。
【小題17】A。從上下文及后面的…if we learn to recycle them 來看，此處說的是“我們的自然資源將持續(xù)更長的時間”。last 表示“持續(xù)，延續(xù)”。
【小題18】D動詞辨析。A使用B保持，逗留C維持D持續(xù)�！拔覀兊淖匀毁Y源將持續(xù)更長的時間”。last 表示“持續(xù)，延續(xù)”。
【小題19】A。如果人們利用現(xiàn)代方法來進(jìn)行計劃生育的話，世界人口就不會提高那么快。birth control 指“計劃生育”。
【小題20】 C。針對上面的問題，最后提出一點建議或思考：如果我們教育人們來思考這個問題的話，我們將會有一個更好的世界。think about 為“思考，考慮”。
考點：考查環(huán)保類短文閱讀
點評：本文主要從人口增多談?wù)摥h(huán)境問題。本文要求考生具有扎實的英語詞組、短語、習(xí)慣用法等英語搭配的知識，這對于理解文章的邏輯關(guān)系特別有利。文章的邏輯關(guān)系不外乎列舉、原因、結(jié)果、讓步、對照、補(bǔ)充、目的、條件等關(guān)系。解題時應(yīng)聯(lián)系上下文尋找相關(guān)線索，如某一個詞的原詞、指代詞、同義詞、近義詞、上義詞、下義詞和概括詞等。但由于我們在做題時不可能總是重復(fù)地閱讀文章，因此，在做完形填空時要培養(yǎng)一種捕捉并記憶相關(guān)信息的能力。

The A-level question Have 22 continuous years of rises in A-level pass rate made the exam worthless? David Miliband, the minister for School Standards, insists the answer is a firm " no". And he said it was wrong that " more will mean worse and more educa??tion for more people will mean lower standards". Figures show that — despite the rise in A-grades to 21. 6 per cent — only 22,000 out of 600,000 18-year-olds gain three A-grade pas??ses. Put another way, that means — in a primary class of 30 pupils — only one will get three A-grades. The center right Bow Group, in a pamphlet published today, however, says nine out of ten scholars believe A-grades have been devalued over the past ten years.
Two inquiries (調(diào)查) — both set up by the Government’s exams watchdogs — one of which included in??dependent teaching experts, refused to accept that there had been any " dumping down" of A-level standards. But while they conclude that the exam questions have not become easier, changes in examining methods have almost certainly made it easier to gain top-grade passes.
As a result of the exams shake-up introduced in 2000, students sit six different types of exams to make up an A-level during the course of their two years of study. Only 20 per cent of the marks are set for the end-of-term exam. This makes it easier for teachers to help their pupils with the right answers.
Mr Miliband said yesterday, " My argument is not that to??day ‘s generation of pupils are cleverer than their parents; it is that schools and teachers are getting better at getting the best out of them. "
5. From the writer’s point of view, the rise in A-grades to 21. 6 per cent shows ______.
A. it is generally thought more education means lower standards
B. the rise in the A-level pass rate has made the exam worthless
C. the quality of the 18-year-olds has become lower
D. it is still hard for the general pupils to get three A-grade passes
6. The underlined word " they" in the second paragraph refers to ______.
A. the exams watchdogs B. the independent teaching experts
C. the A-level standards D. the two inquiries
7. As a result of the exams shake-up introduced in 2000 ______.
A. the pass rate for A-levels was set to rise continuously
B. the exam became easier than it had been before 2000
C. pupils could have many more choices of test after 2000
D. it soon became popular with teachers and pupils
8. What does this passage mainly discuss?
A. How reliable and effective the A-level grading system is.
B. How the A-level system helps universities select pupils.
C. How the pass rate has been increased in recent years.
D. How the A-level grading system has changed over the years.

Of all the jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me．Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions．Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience．If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone．I can put up with many things, but not with people who steal．If one of my players were caught stealing, he'd be gone．
