?、?1.毫無疑問,地球是在變暖,而且全球轉(zhuǎn)暖是人為的,而不是隨意的自然現(xiàn)象?!?1)Thereisnodoubtthatthepriceofwheatwillgoup. (2)ItwasakeythatIfoundinhispocket.
2.所有的科學(xué)家贊同這種觀點:人們?yōu)榱松a(chǎn)能量而燃燒化石燃料(如煤、天然氣和石油等),從而引起了地球溫度的升高?!?1)Wedon’tsubscribetotheviewthatwehavefailed. (2)thathewonascholarship
3.如果沒有這種‘溫室效應(yīng)’,地球的溫度將比現(xiàn)在的溫度還要低33攝氏度左右?!?1)Withoutelectricity,lifewouldbequitedifferenttoday. (2)Withoutyourhelp,Iwouldn’thavesucceededanyway.
4.即使我們開始減少二氧化碳和其他溫室氣體的含量,在未來的幾十年或幾個世紀內(nèi),氣候仍會持續(xù)轉(zhuǎn)暖。
(1)Evenif (Iam) invited (2)eveniftheweatherisbad
?、?1.D [句意為:溫室里面的空氣是暖和的,因為玻璃能使來自陽光的熱量留住并阻止它流失。]
2.A [在表示時間、地點、條件等的狀語從句中,如果主句的主語和從句主語一致,且從句謂語含有動詞be時,可省略從句的主語和be動詞。因compare與主語之間是被動關(guān)系,故此處的完整形式為:when it is compared to other changes。]
3.C [句意為:全球轉(zhuǎn)暖是人為的,而不是隨意的自然現(xiàn)象。rather than而不是,符合題意。more than多于,超過;other than除了;except for除了(用于肯定主體,否定局部)。]
4.D [考查強調(diào)句型,it is/was...that/who...,當強調(diào)人時,可用that或who。此處強調(diào)主語a scientist called Charles Keeling。]
5.D [第一空用subscribe to表示“同意,贊成”;第二空用不定式表目的。apply to申請,應(yīng)用于;correspond to符合,與……一致;cater to滿足于;迎合。]
6.C [the most important one of...是一個非限制性定語從句,修飾先行詞“greenhouse” gases。因先行詞是物,故排除B項;that和these不能用于引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句。]
7.B [句意為:這意味著更多的熱能將被困在大氣層中,從而引起了全球氣溫上升。go up上升,增長,符合題意。grow up成長,長大;build up增進;加強;bring up養(yǎng)育,撫養(yǎng)。]
8.A [句意為:正是由于越來越多的燃燒化石燃料導(dǎo)致了二氧化碳的增加。result in導(dǎo)致,符合題意。lead to導(dǎo)致;result from由……引起,因……而產(chǎn)生;as a result因此,結(jié)果,在句中作狀語。]
9.B [be opposed to反對,符合題意。object to反對;be supposed to do sth.應(yīng)該做某事;be determined to do sth.決心做某事。]
10.A [even if即使,縱然,符合題意。as if好像;now that既然;as long as只要。]
?、?1.B [主旨大意題,綜觀全文可以看出,文章開篇點題,在第一段點明了文章的主題:泰國首都曼谷(Bangkok)為了提高人們對全球變暖的認識在周三關(guān)燈15分鐘。然后下文對這一活動的情況作了詳細的介紹,故選B項。這里要注意題目和原文中同義詞的替代問題:raise awareness=remind...of。]
2.D [計算題。由倒數(shù)第三段的“...more than 26 million tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year,or nearly 20 percent of Thailand’s total CO2 emissions.”可以計算出泰國整個二氧化碳的排放量是130 million tons。]
3.C [推理判斷題。由文章第三段中描述的“...with some malls and hotels ignoring the request...”可知,并不是所有的人都贊成這次活動。]
4.A [細節(jié)判斷題。用排除法。由第一段可以判斷C項正確;由倒數(shù)第二段可以判斷D項正確;由倒數(shù)第四段可以判斷B項正確。文章沒有提到不關(guān)燈的市民要被罰款(be fined)。]
