試題分析:本文講述的是做志愿者的好處。

【1】B 根據(jù)上文提到When it comes to benefits of volunteering, a lot of people think it’s all about the warm feelings after helping someone.(當(dāng)談起志愿者的好處時,很多人認(rèn)為做志愿者的好處就是幫助別人過后的那種說不出來的溫暖的感覺),故B事實上,這遠(yuǎn)不是唯一的一個好處而已符合語境

【2】F 根據(jù)上文提到volunteering can really be almost anything.再根據(jù)空格下句through overcoming these you learn and start to master completely new skills.可知此句的意思是“你將面對很多挑戰(zhàn)”。故選F。

【3】C 根據(jù)上句experience often seems to be a prerequisite (必備條件) for some jobs.經(jīng)驗似乎是一些工作的必備條件;再根據(jù)空格下句There’s many a journalist that gets his or her start through volunteering for a college or university paper很多記者都是通過為大學(xué)做志愿者寫文章而開始的)可知此處的意思是Volunteering can actually help you get the experience you need.志愿工作實際上能讓你擁有工作經(jīng)驗,幫你得到工作的敲門磚),故選C。

【4】D 根據(jù)上句One of my close friends has completely transformed since she started working for disabled kids.我有一位非常親密的朋友,她在開始為殘疾人孩子工作后,完全變成了另外一個人。再根據(jù)空格下句It allows you to see the world and other people from a whole different point of view允許你以一個完全不同視角去看世界和他人。可知此處要表達(dá)的意思是Volunteering helps you look outside yourself and your problems.志愿工作能幫你從自己和自己的問題中跳出來)。故選D。

【5】G 根據(jù)上文提到One of the great things for volunteering is that you meet a wide variety of people.志愿服務(wù)的一大好處是,你會接觸到很多人。再根據(jù)空格下句Sometimes it’s very convenient to have a broad network.有時有廣泛的人脈網(wǎng)絡(luò)是非常方便的。可知此處要表達(dá)的意思是You’re getting to know people involved in many different walks in life that you wouldn’t have had the opportunity to meet otherwise.你會認(rèn)識各行各業(yè)的人,要是不參加志愿服務(wù)你根本就沒有機(jī)遇和這些人相逢。故選G。

【題目】A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover,these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere, warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns,potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.

In the past hundred years,humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(資源): land for crops,wood for paper and other products,land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example,a lot of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.

There are two main reasons for this. Firstly,when people cut down trees,generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly,cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now,but in the long run it actually reduces the world’s wood supply.

Rainforests are often called the world’s drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However,fewer than l%of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world’s shrinking (萎縮的) rainforests.

【1】Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they .

A. reflect more heat into the atmosphere

B. bring about high rainfall throughout the world

C. rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than l6℃

D. reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth

【2】What does the word “this” underlined in the third paragraph refer to?

A. We will lose much more than we can gain.

B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.

C. People have a strong desire for resources.

D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.

【3】It can be inferred from the text that __________________.

A. we can get enough resources without rainforests

B. there is great medicine potential in rainforests

C. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land

D. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns

【4】What might be the best title for the text?

A. How to Save Rainforests

B. How to Protect Nature

C. Rainforests and the Environment

D. Rainforests and Medical Development
