课时作业B：能力层面

Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

(2019·山西六校第二次阶段性测试)World Environment Day is celebrated annually on June 5th and was created to inspire people around the globe to take an active part in environmental protection and learn more about ways we can help to guarantee the future of our planet is safe.

The very first World Environment Day took place in 1974，established by the United Nations General Assembly on the first day of the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment that took place in 1972.Each year the United Nations pick a theme and a host city where anyone who is concerned about the environment can talk about environmental topics with others，followed by different kinds of exhibits to promote environmental awareness.Environmentalists，academics and scientists come together to bring new ideas on the table concerning the environment.

The 2018 World Environment Day is hosted by India，and the theme is Beat Plastic Pollution.It urges people to explore and choose supportable alternatives like paper or cloth bags to reduce the production and use of disposable plastic，which makes up 10% of all of the waste.Even though the United Nations pick a specific host city every year，people around the world still celebrate World Environment Day in their hometowns with parades(游行)，concerts，cleaning up and tree planting and all kinds of green actions to work towards having a beautiful planet and battling pollution.

World Environment Day is not a public holiday，so you won't be getting the day off work or school，but if you want to celebrate，why not bring it to the attention of your parents，friends，colleagues or classmates？World Environment Day is all about working together to take action for the planet，so try to get everyone you know interested in helping do something.Things as small as making sure people have a way to recycle can make a difference.You could also try beautifying your neighborhood by planting gardens，learn about green foods，raise money for a local wildlife conservation group or simply learn about the effects of different products on the earth.

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界环境日的由来和情况，呼吁全员行动起来帮助保护地球。

1．Why is World Environment Day set up?

A．To make people know more about nature.

B．To ask people to help to protect the globe.

C．To warn people of the danger of air pollution.

D．To encourage people to plan the earth's future.

B　[细节理解题。从第一段中的“to inspire people around the globe to take an active part in environmental protection and learn more about ways we can help to guarantee the future of our planet is safe”可以看出，世界环境日的目的是鼓励人们积极参与环境保护并学会很多方法来帮助确保地球将来的安全，故选B。]

2．What do people do on World Environment Day?

A．Decide a host city.

B．Hold a theme party.

C．Discuss environmental ideas.

D．Show some plastic products.

C　[细节理解题。从第二段中的“where anyone who is concerned about the environment can talk about environmental topics with others”以及“Environmentalists，academics and scientists come together to bring new ideas on the table concerning the environment”可以看出，人们主要是在这一天讨论环境问题。]

3．Which of the following words is the closest in meaning to “disposable” in Paragraph 3?

A．High­cost.　　 B．Poor­quality.

C．Second­hand. D．Single­use.

D　[词义猜测题。从第三段中的“Beat Plastic Pollution”可以看出，2018年的主题是“塑战速决”，再结合画线词前面的“It urges people to explore and choose supportable alternatives like paper or cloth bags”和后面的“which makes up 10% of all of the waste”可知，“disposable plastic”造成大量资源浪费，所以“一次性的”符合语境，故选D项。]

4．What's the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．Every bit of effort counts.

B．Doing is better than saying.

C．Many hands make light work.

D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

A　[段落大意题。根据最后一段的内容可知，世界环境日不是公共节日，所以人们不放假。但如果你想庆祝的话，为何不让你周围的人关注它。所以最后一段主要是讲每个人都可以从身边小事做起，行动起来保护地球，每个人的微小努力都很重要，故选A项。Doing is better than saying“行胜于言”；Many hands make light work“众人拾柴火焰高”；Nothing is impossible to a willing heart“有志者事竟成”。]

(2019·济南市模拟)We humans love to stare into our smart devices. We gaze for hours—about 10 hours and 39 minutes a day—at our computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions. Is all this staring bad for us? It might be, mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.

Blue light is a type of electromagnetic (电磁的) radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy. While it's true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances, there's no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue­light­blocking glasses are so popular. So do the glasses work?

“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye, but there's no evidence that it may be causing serious damage，” Dr. Rahul Khurana, clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology, told Business Insider.

Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light. But if blue light isn't harmful, then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when we're looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain (眼疲劳): More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain. And blue light, it seems, isn't the cause. Instead, our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices. So if eyestrain is the issue, blue­light­blocking glasses are probably of little use.

【语篇解读】　该文主要探讨了蓝光是否对我们的眼睛有害的问题。

5．What do we know about blue light?

A．It is a kind of nuclear radiation.

B．It has the shortest wavelength.

C．It may come from electronic devices.

D．It consumes a great deal of energy.

C　[推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“It might be, mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light”可推知，电子设备会发出蓝光。]

6．What causes the popularity of blue­light­blocking glasses?

A．Evidence of their benefits to eyes.

B．Belief in blue light's harmful effect.

C．Widespread use of smart devices.

D．Scientific understanding of blue light.

B　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“there's no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue­light­blocking glasses are so popular”可知，防蓝光眼镜流行的原因是人们认为蓝光会对眼睛有害。]

7．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A．Blue light exposure is hardly avoidable.

B．Eye problems are not easy to deal with.

C．Blue light may connect with tired eyes.

D．Rubbing eyes makes people strained.

A　[推理判断题。根据第四段的前三句“Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light”可知，阳光是蓝光最大的来源，而且蓝光也存在LED灯中。由此可推知，接触蓝光几乎是不可避免的。]

8．According to the text, wearing blue­light­blocking glasses may be         ．

A．tiring B．harmful

C．useless D．beneficial

C　[细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“So if eyestrain is the issue, blue­light­blocking glasses are probably of little use”可知，戴防蓝光眼镜可能是没有用处的。]
