Question

【題目】3-2-1 GREEN!

You already know an environmentalist’s three R’s: reduce, reuse, recycle. 【1】 Here are three things you can do for the Earth Day.

Be a real cut-up

The next time you’re about to throw out the plastic rings that hold a six-pack of soda together, reach for a pair of scissors.

As a young turtle, Peanut got stuck in one of these rings. As she grew, the ring stayed put（原地不動）, forcing her shell to grow around it. By the time someone found her and cut her free, her shell was permanently deformed（成畸形的）. Thanks to her hard shell, Peanut is alive and well. She now lives at a nature center in Missouri. But most animals that get caught in six-pack rings die.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Easy! 【2】

Hunt for vampires（吸血鬼）

You know all those electronic inventions you’ve got at home? Even when you switch them off, they are really still on. 【3】 Anything with a glowing LED off/on light, a remote control, or a clock display is always on.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Just pull out the plugs（插頭） or tap the OFF switch till you really need the electronics.

【4】

Matt Damon really cares about clean water. So in February, he announced that he was going on strike against toilets. “ Until everybody has access to clean water and sanitation（衛(wèi)生設(shè)備）,” he said. “ I will not go to the bathroom!” He was kidding but to make a serious point. Around the world, he said, “780 million people lack access to clean water; 2.5 billion people lack access to a toilet.”

【2】 C

【3】 B

【4】 A

【5】 F

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章作者說明了你可以為世界地球日做的三件事情。

【1】文章下文Here are three things you can do for the Earth Day.說你可以為世界地球日做三件事情，該空與下文相呼應(yīng)，E選項“但是，你能幫些什么忙？”切題，故選E。

【2】上文But most animals that get caught in six-pack rings die.說但是，大多數(shù)被困在放六個罐子的環(huán)狀物中的動物都死了，該空與上文相呼應(yīng)，C選項“在你丟棄它們之前，把環(huán)形物剪碎”切題，故選C。

【3】下文Anything with a glowing LED off/on light, a remote control, or a clock display is always on.說明了識別魔鬼電器的方法，該空與下文相呼應(yīng)，B選項“如何識別魔鬼電器”切題，故選B。

【4】第四段介紹了如何用水的問題，所以這一段的標(biāo)題應(yīng)該是“明智地用水”，故選A。

【5】上文Just don’t waste water.指出了不要浪費水，下文Take shorter showers.指出短時間的淋浴，該空承上啟下，F(xiàn)選項“刷牙的時候，不要一直開著水”切題，故選F。

七選五題型要求考生從整體上把握文章的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)和內(nèi)容上的聯(lián)系，理解句子之間、段落之間的關(guān)系，對諸如連貫性、一致性等語段特征有較強(qiáng)的意識和熟練的把握。所以懂得整篇文章的基本結(jié)構(gòu)或段落的語篇結(jié)構(gòu)對解題很有用。例如小題4是要求選擇本段的小標(biāo)題，結(jié)合其它三個小標(biāo)題可知，小標(biāo)題都是短小精悍的句子，再結(jié)合其段落的內(nèi)容就不難選出正確的答案。
