Question

20．In most situations，light helps us see．But when it comes to looking at the night sky，light is actually a kind of pollution．It prevents our view of some of life's most striking sights：stars，planets，and even galaxies（銀河系）．
"When I was a little boy，I loved the night sky．I remember looking up and the sky was filled with stars．I became an astronomer because I was amazed by their beauty，"says Robert Gent，"Now in most big cities kids can't see the stars like I did．"
      Normally，about 2，500 individual （單個的） stars are visible to the human eyes without using any special equipment．But because of light pollution，you actually see just 200 to 300 and fewer than a dozen from some cities．Only one in three Americans can see our own galaxy with the naked eyes．Those people live far away from the lights of big cities，office buildings，and shopping malls．
      Fortunately，there's an inexpensive and useful way．If we shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky，and use lower brightness levels，we can save big amounts of energy and keep the beauty of the night sky．Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night，making sure enough shine for safety without creating much light pollution．
      Light pollution affects more than our view of the heavens and can harm wildlife．Migrating birds（候鳥） sometimes fly over cities and become confused by the brightness，flying in circles until they drop from exhaustion．  Sea turtles need dark beaches for nesting and won't approach bright lights．Too much light at night may even affect human health．For all these reasons，researchers are working on ways to use lights only when and where they are truly needed．Everyone deserves to look up at the sky．

Answer 1

分析 本文主要講述的是被很多人遺忘的光污染，在文章中列舉了多個事例進行了詳細(xì)說明．

解答 ADBBA
71   A   細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章第三段最后3行Only one in three Americans can see our own galaxy with the naked eyes．Those people live far away from the lights of big cities，office buildings，and shopping malls．可知只有在遠(yuǎn)離城市的地方，人們可以用肉眼看到我們的銀河系．也就是說生活在遠(yuǎn)離城市的地方，人們看到的星星比生活在城市里的人要多．故A正確．
72  D    細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)文章第4段最后2行Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night，making sure enough shine for safety without creating much light pollution．可知很多城市通過了很多的法律，目的在于避免太多的光污染．故D正確．
73   B   段落大意題．根據(jù)本段第一句和最后一句Fortunately，there's an inexpensive and useful way．和Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night，making sure enough shine for safety without creating much light pollution可知本段主要講述的是減少光污染的方法，一個是個人采取的，另外一個是政府采取的措施．故B正確．
74   B   推理題．根據(jù)本句Migrating birds（候鳥） sometimes fly over cities and become confused by the brightness，flying in circles until they drop from exhaustion．可知很多候鳥都因為光污染而無法辨明方向，一直在繞圈飛行，直到最后精疲力竭掉到地上．故該詞是指B項含義．
75   A   主旨大意題．根據(jù)文章主題段第一句    In most situations，light helps us see．But when it comes to looking at the night sky，light is actually a kind of pollution．可知本文主要講述的是光污染的話題，在下面幾段里做了詳細(xì)的舉例說明．故A正確．

點評 做閱讀理解時要快速的瀏覽全文，把握文章主旨大意，帶著問題回到原文，尋找細(xì)節(jié)或概括相應(yīng)的答案，最后要理清作者寫作思路．
