"I didn't feel my last job gave me self-worth and general happiness,so I decided to change and do something completely different," she says. "I decided to be a binman.It doesn't bother me that men are mainly doing it," Crystal adds. "It can be smelly some days,but go home and have a shower,you'll be all right."
    "When householders put the wrong material in the recycling bins,it makes me feel angry that they are just putting it out there.We're doing our job to serve them.We are providing service to take their rubbish away and they can't do their part to put the right things in," said Richard.

(1)细节理解题。根据第二段 "I am that annoying person at a party who will get everyone's recycling and make sure everything goes in the right bin," she admits. "That's my job.That's my mission.That's what I need to do.It allows me to find my leadership style."(她承认:"我是派对上那种让人讨厌的人,我会帮每个人收废品,并确保所有东西都放进正确的垃圾箱。""这是我的工作。这是我的使命。这就是我要做的。这让我找到了自己的领导风格。")可知,在聚会时,Fran会收起每个人的垃圾,并做好垃圾分类的工作,这让聚会中的人感到不舒服。故选B项。
(2)细节理解题。根据第三段中"'I didn't feel my last job gave me self﹣worth and general happiness,so I decided to change and do something completely different,' she says. 'I decided to be a binman.It doesn't bother me that men are mainly doing it,' Crystal adds. ('我觉得上一份工作并没有给我带来自我价值和快乐,所以我决定改变,做一些完全不同的事情。'她说,'我决定当一名清洁工。主要是男性在做这件事,我并不介意这一点,'克里斯托补充道。)"可知,Crystal认为自己的上一份工作没有让她感受到快乐和自我价值的实现,而离职后她选择当一个垃圾倾倒工,可推知,这是一份能使她感受到自我价值和快乐的工作,对她来说,这是一份有意义的工作。故选C项。
(3)细节理解题。根据第四段的"'When householders put the wrong material in the recycling bins,it makes me feel angry that they are just putting it out there.We're doing our job to serve them.We are providing service to take their rubbish away and they can't do their part to put the right things in,' said Richard. ('当住户们把错误的材料放入回收箱时,我感到愤怒,因为他们只是把它放在那里。我们在尽我们的职责为他们服务。我们提供服务把他们的垃圾运走,而他们却不能尽自己的一份力把正确的东西放进去。'理查德说道。)"可知,住户们不把垃圾正确地分类,放在正确的地方,这让Richard很生气。故选C项。
(4)推理判断题。根据第二段She says, 'Some think it's a discouraging thing,but for me personally,it is a huge responsibility.' Fran,who started to do the job at the age of 26,takes her job very seriously. (她说:'有些人认为这是一件令人沮丧的事情,但对我个人来说,这是一项巨大的责任。'弗兰从26岁开始做这份工作,她非常认真地对待她的工作。)可知,Fran对工作很负责;根据最后一段"Any problem has a solution—therefore I'm not afraid of a pile of waste,"Fran says. "To any normal person,this might be intimidating (令人生畏的).It's a challenge.But this will be gone by Monday morning." ("任何问题都有解决的办法,所以我不怕一堆垃圾。"Fran说,"对于任何一个正常人来说,这可能令人生畏。这是一个挑战。但到周一早上就会没了。")可知,尽管垃圾很多,但Fran对于这个挑战能很乐观地面对。故选D项。

212686. (2025•莲湖区•高一下期中)        Migratory birds (候鸟) rely on a network of habitats across continents (洲).Today,scientists with the National Audubon Society published a study in which they propose a new way to identify where conservation efforts are most needed to ensure the survival for migratory birds that travel between Canada and South America.
       The study integrates movement data from more than 329,000 birds of 112 species to identify the areas where migratory birds face the greatest threats from climate change and habitat loss.Researchers introduce a new way called multispecies migratory connectivity to measure these threats.Despite a growing understanding of how birds connect across different places and seasons,by combining connectivity patterns across many species with future climate changes and habitat changes,researchers find out the migration paths at the highest risk throughout the Americas.
       The findingow that migration paths between some breeding (繁殖) regions in Canada and non-breeding regions in South America are particularly vulnerable,suggesting the threats faced by long-distance migrants.Alarmingly,over half of the migration paths at very high risk involve breeding regions in the eastern United States. "Bird migration is one of the most incredible and impressive phenomena in nature.This new science highlights the need for continued investment and international efforts to reduce the dangers migratory birds meet across the entire continents," said Dr.Jill Deppe,senior director of Audubon's Migratory Bird Initiative.
       A 2019 study determined that there are nearly three billion fewer birds in North America than in the year 1970,with two-and-a-half billion of those birds considered migratory birds.The survival of many of these migratory species remains uncertain if countries do not take action to reduce climate pollution and the impacts of human activities that threaten birds and their habitats.By learning more about the threats these birds are facing during their annual cycle,we can focus on the places and actions that will have the biggest impact for securing their future.
(1)What is multispecies migratory connectivity used to do?       
A.Track the migration paths of many species.
B.Identify suitable habitats for breeding birds.
C.Measure the risks faced by migratory birds.
D.Guess future populations of migratory birds.
(2)What does the underlined word "vulnerable" in paragraph 3 mean?       
A.Easily damaged.
B.Equally improved.
C.Well protected.
D.Widely spread.
(3)Why is the 2019 study mentioned in the last paragraph?       
A.To praise the success of conservation efforts.
B.To stress the necessity of conservation action.
C.To compare migration patterns of different bird species.
D.To explain the causes of climate change affecting birds.
(4)What can be the best title for the text?       
A.The Role of Global Efforts in Bird Conservation
B.New Scientific Tools for Tracking Bird Migration
C.How Climate Change Is Reshaping Bird Migration Pattern
D.Scientists Identify Key Areas for Protecting Migratory Birds

204356. (2023•铁一中学•高一上期末)      Friday and Saturday were full of surprises for Chinese,as two places in China were listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.The first,a World Natural Heritage,is composed of a series of migratory bird sanctuaries (候鸟保护地) along the coast of the Yellow Sea in Yancheng,East China's Jiangsu Province.The second,the Liangzhu Archaeological Site in Hangzhou,East China's Zhejiang Province,was listed as a World Cultural Heritage site.
     China began the application process for the bird sanctuaries in 2017.It only took two years to successfully complete the process.The migratory bird sanctuaries are the central node of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and many endangered species,especially threatened migratory birds including red-crowned cranes and flamingos,go there to hunt for food during the migration season.The birds usually take a month to finish their migration.At about 10 days into their migration,they must stop and find food in order to have the energy to continue their journey.
    Compared to the short turnaround for the World Natural Heritage's application,the Liangzhu application was far more complicated.The application team spent six years making their dream a reality.The site in Liangzhu is evidence of the existence of an early regional state in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River during the late Neolithic period in China,which helps fill in the gaps in the history of the rice-cultivating civilizations of China and East Asia more than 5000 years ago.The site was one of the 20th century's most important archaeological discoveries in China.
    With these two new additions,China now has 55 World Heritage sites,the highest number in the world.The successful application means greater responsibility and obligations (义务).Protecting these places is much more important and is our future work.

(1)What is special about the migratory bird sanctuaries?        
A.It's the first China's world natural heritage on the sea.
B.It provides safe habitats for endangered species.
C.It's located along the coast of the Yellow River.
D.It supplies abundant fresh water to migratory birds.
(2)According to Paragraph 2,how do migratory bird sanctuaries protect birds?        
A.By creating warm places to produce baby birds.
B.By preventing them from being killed by hunters.
C.By providing food supplies during their migration.
D.By curing the endangered birds after their journey.
(3)Why is Liangzhu chosen for the world heritage site?        
A.It shows the long history of China.
B.It proves the wisdom of the people.
C.It witnesses the civilization of an age.
D.It reveals the food of the late Neolithic.
(4)What is the last paragraph mainly talking about?        
A.The application success's promotion of tourism.
B.Chinese responsibilities after the successful application.
C.The two places' influence on Chinese history.
D.Chinese challenge of protecting birds' migration.

215204. (2015•西安一中•高三上期中) Here are four pieces of news from China Daily:
SHANGHAI---The Huachen Group,which has put 83 million yuan in the development of the commerce market since its official registration late last year,recently held a meeting in Shanghai to show the use of its newly opened tourism business payment network.The network aims to serve tourists from all over the world,but especially from Europe and the United States where credit cards are popularly used.After opening the www.ehinaeonet.com website,netizens can get information about hotels and tourism services on tourism page.Hotels and services can be reserved and payment made through credit cards.The network opened in February in Beijing.
SYDNEY---The Sydney Olympic flame will travel underwater on Australia's Great Barrier Reef during the torch relay following a successful test.
Scuba diver Wendy Craig,a marine biologist,will carry the torch on three-to-four-minute underwater journey at Agincourt Reef on June 27,creating Olympic history,organizers said yesterday.
Burning at 2,000 degrees,the torch is expected to remain alight three meters underwater because of a special kind of technology which creates a "fierce flame"--- too powerful to be drowned out by water.Charles Tegner,managing director of torch creator,said the flame would burn like a flame from oxygen-producing chemicals.
BEIJING---The election of a new leader in Taiwan cannot change the fact that Taiwan is part of China. "Taiwan Independence" in whatever form will never be allowed,according to a statesman of China's central government.
"We should listen to what the new leader in Taiwan says and watch what he does.We will observe where he will lead Cross-Straits relations.We are willing to exchange views on Cross-Straits relations and peaceful reunification(统一) with all parties,organizations and people in Taiwan who favor the one-China principle," says the statesman,from Taiwan Affairs Office of the CPC Central Committee.
HAIKOU---Customs officers in Haikou,capital of South China's Hainan Province,recently stopped a boat loaded with 781 cases of foreign-brand cigarettes being smuggling into China.The cigarettes are estimated to be worth more than 1.8 million yuan,said a customs officer.They discovered the smuggling boat as they were going around the northern sea area of Yangpu Port.
The smuggled cigarettes cases,packed into two containers,were disguised to avoid being examined.The boat was registered in the coastal city Xiamen in East China's Fujian Province.All eight suspects aboard the boat were kept by the police in Haikou.

A.Because they are from developed countries.
B.Because the payments of hotels and services are usually made through credit cards in these places.
C.Because people in these countries travel much more than those in other countries.
D.Because they have more computers than others.
(2)Which is the best title for the third piece of news?

205426. (2020•西安中学•高二下期末) Recently there was a major discovery in the scientific research-the mapping of all DNA in a human gene is complete.Several years ago,it seems an impossible task for scientist to accomplish.All this progress in science leads us to believe that the day when human being will be cloned is not far away.Human cloning has always been a topic of argument in terms of morality (道德) or religion.
   Taking a look at why cloning might be beneficial,among many cases,it is arguable that parents who are known to be at risk of passing a genetic limitation to a child could make use of cloning.Moreover,cloning would enable women who can't get pregnant to have children of their own.
   Cloning humans would also mean that organs could be cloned,so it would be a source of perfect transfer organs.This surely would be greatly beneficial to millions of unfortunate people around the world who are expected to lose their lives due to organ problems.It is also arguable that a ban on cloning may be unlawful and would rob people of the right to reproduce and limit the freedom of scientists.
   However,arguments against cloning are also on a perfectly practical side.Primarily,I believe that cloning would step in the normal "cycle" of life.There would be a large number of same genes,which reduce the chances of evolution,since it may be difficult for living creatures to naturally adapt to the ever-changing environment,which will result in ultimate disappearance.Furthermore,cloning would make the uniqueness that each one of us possesses disappear.Thus,leading to creation of genetically engineered groups of people for specific purposes and,chances are that those individuals would be regarded as "objects" rather than people in the society.
   Scientists couldn't surely guarantee that the first cloned humans will be normal.Thus this could result in introduction of additional limitations in the human "gene-pool".
   Regarding such arguable topics in "black or white" approach seems very innocent.We should try to look at all "shades" of it.I believe that cloning is only legal if its purpose is for cloning organs;not humans.Then we could regard this as for "saving life" instead of "creating life".It is believed that cloning humans is morally and socially unacceptable.

(1)What's the author's opinion on cloning?       
A.Cloning should be entirely banned.
B.Cloning should be used in creating life.
C.Cloning will take away the right to reproduce.
D.Cloning is acceptable if it is used for cloning organs.
(2)Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?       
A. 德优题库B. 德优题库
C. 德优题库D. 德优题库
(3)Where is the text probably from?       
A.A story book.

212933. (2023•周至六中•高二上期中) Plants are very important living things.Life could not go on if there were no plants.This is because plants can make food from air,water and sunlight.Animals and man cannot make food from air,water and sunlight.Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals.Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live.This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.
If you look carefully at the plants around you,you will find that there are two kinds of plants:flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
Flowering plants can make seeds.The seeds are protected by the fruits.Some fruits have one seed,some have two,three of four,and some have many seeds.But a few fruits have no seeds at all.An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit.
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds.They grow from spores(胚种).Spores are very small.Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air.We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds.When these spores are all on wet and shady places,they usually grow into new plants.

(1)The main idea of the first paragraph is that        
A.plants are important for life.
B.plants cannot grow without air.
C.there are many plants in the world.
D.we cannot live without water.
(2)Plants can make food from        
A.flower,water and air

206054. (2016•七十中•高一下期末) It is believed by experts that a weather pattern called El Nino caused the drought in Australia.EL Nino,referring to the Christ son in Spanish,was first used by people in Peru to show the abnormal weather conditions along the eastern Pacific coast around Christmas.EL Nino causes different weather in different parts of the world.It causes a lot of rain and floods in some places.It causes droughts in other places.Droughts can badly affect people and the land.El Nino lasts about a year.
In normal weather conditions,warm winds from South America blow from east to west across the Pacific Ocean.The winds bring early storms to Australia.These storms bring rain to Australia.
During an El Nino weather pattern the winds change direction.They blow from west to east across the Pacific Ocean.The storms no longer move across Australia.So Australia gets very little rain during El Nino.
The drought began in January,1982.El Nino often occurs at this time of year.But that year,El Nino was stronger than usual.There was very little rainfall in eastern Australia.There was also very little water in the rivers.The drought was at its worst in February,1983.At that time,the weather was very hot.The forests and fields were very dry.Cotton growers couldn't plant their cotton.Sheep farmers had no grass for their animals to eat.So many of them died.Because the forests were dry,forest fires started quickly.Some of the fires burned for a month.Many forests were destroyed.Over 2,000 people lost their houses in the fires and 75 people died.
The Australian drought of 1982-1983 affected thousands of people and animals.The drought cost the country over 3,000,000,000.It was a reminder to Australians of how the weather could change their lives.
(1)From the passage we know El Nino is        
A.a powerful storm
B.a place in Australia
C.a cute boy
D.a weather pattern
(2)The underlined word"occurs"in the passage means"        "in Chinese.

206027. (2016•长安区一中•高二下期末) On May 3,2002,archaeologists in England found a grave of a man dating back to around 2300 BC.Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior.There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat.He carried a copper knife on his breast.The most amazing find was two gold earrings.That would have made him a man of distinction.Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay,tools and materials to make arrows,a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second,smaller copper knife.Next to them lay a cushion stone,upon which the man could work metal.
His grave is the richest of any found from that period,because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC).Besides,he was buried three miles from Stonehenge.Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.
Stonehenge was begun around 3,000 BC.In about 2300 BC the huge stone circles were built.The biggest stone weighed approximately 20 tons.But the smaller blue stones,still weighing 4 tons on average,came from west Wales.It is not yet known how these were conveyed over a distance of 380km.It is also a mystery how early man was able to construct Stonehenge without the use of modern construction machines and lorries.
He is an example of people who brought culture and new techniques from the European mainland to Britain.In terms of technical development people were going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and then to the Iron Age.
(1)Which are not included in the things that are found in the grave of a man?        
A.Tools,a bone pin,a bow and a cushion stone.

205999. (2016•长安区一中•高一下期末) In America the first newspaper appeared in Boston in 1690.Published without permission,it was immediately banned,and all copies were destroyed.Indeed,it remained forgotten until 1845 when the only surviving example was discovered in the British Library.
The first successful newspaper was the Boston News-Letter,begun by John Campbell in 1704.Although it was heavily supported by the government,the experiment was nearly a failure,with the limited number of published newspapers.Two more papers were published in the 1720s,in Philadelphia and New York.Just before the Revolutionary War,some two dozen papers were published in all the colonies(殖民地),although Massachusetts,New York,and Pennsylvania would remain the centers of American printing for many years.Articles in colonial papers were a major force that affected public opinion in America to be fully independent.
When the war ended in 1783 there were forty-three newspapers in print.The newspapers played an active role in the affairs of the new nation.Many more newspapers were started,representing all kinds of political opinions,and America's newspapers began to take on a central role in national affairs.Growth continued in every state.By 1814 there were 346 newspapers.
The price of a year's worth of newspapers was usually over a full week's pay for a worker.It had to be paid in full and in advance.This cheap,interesting reading material helped to make almost everyone in America develop the habit of reading,which is now taken for granted.
(1)The main force to affect public opinion in America for America's independence was        
A.different kinds of newspapers
B.the appearance of more papers

205979. (2016•西安一中•高二下期末) All hotels redecorate regularly.However,very few do it as frequently as Sweden's Ice hotel.As the name indicates,the hotel that is located in the remote village of Jukkasjarvi,is built entirely from ice and,therefore,has to be rebuilt annually!The 26th version of Ice hotel,which welcomed its first visitors on December 11th,features 69 rooms.To make them affordable for everyone,they range from expensive luxury suites to basic accommodations.
Among this year's unique suite offerings is the"Elephant in the Room",which features a massive 3-m tall sculpted African elephant overlooking an ice-framed bed.The"Counting Sheep"suite features frozen sheep that may help those who don't sleep well get a good night's rest.Though the atmosphere between the luxury suites and the budget rooms may differ,they are all subject to the bone-chilling-5℃temperatures.To get a good night's rest guests have to lie inside sleeping bags and keep their gloves and hats on.Though that seems a little uncomfortable,visitors say it is an experience like none other.
The hotel also features a beautifully crafted ice church where over 100 couples will get married this year and an Ice Bar that will serve drinks in ice glasses.Though dining options are limited to the hotel's only restaurant,guests will have little to complain about with Michelin-trained chef Alexander Meier.To keep customers entertained,the hotel offers a variety of fun activities like snowshoeing,moose or snowmobile safaris,dog sledding,and even overnight wilderness camping.
The 26-year-?old tradition began accidentally in 1989 when locals organized an art exhibition to draw winter visitors to the remote village that lies 200km north of the Arctic Circle.Among the many tourists was an adventurous group and they announced their intention of spending the night in the place where the exhibition was being held.That's when the idea of building the icy accommodations dawned on the locals.

205961. (2016•西安一中•高一下期末) LONDON(Reuters)--Organic fruit,delivered right to the doorstep.That is what Gabriel Gold prefers,and he is willing to pay for it.If this is not possible,the 26-year-old computer technician will spend the extra money at the supermarket to buy organic food.
"Organic produce is always better,"--Gold said."The food is free of pesticides(农药),and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms.And more often than not it is locally(本地)grown and seasonal,so it is more tasty."Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend,and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.But how many shoppers really know what they are getting,and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic produce?Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete.For example,small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products.And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported(进口)to meet growing demand."The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year,so it is a very fast-growing market,"said Sue Flock,a specialist in this line of business.

205842. (2017•西安中学•高二上期末) WASHINGTON:NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon,Ganymede,has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface.The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface,according to new Hubble observation.
   New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon,which is the largest in our whole solar system,is home to a subsurface ocean.
   Scientists estimate the ocean is 95 kilometres thick,which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans.But unlike our salty waters,Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometres of ice.
   While scientists have speculated (推测) since 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede - the largest moon in our solar system - until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft,which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.
   This discovery marks an important milestone,highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish.In its 25 years in orbit,Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system.A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.
    Scientists have already confirmed the existence of an ocean on Europa,another moon orbiting Jupiter,and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.
   Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth,but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets.Using these same principles,scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant planets as well.

(1)What can we learn about the Ganymede from the passage?        
A.It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.
B.Its ocean adds to people's excitement about life beyond Earth.
C.It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.
D.Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.
(2)Which of the following best describes the writer's attitude towards Hubble?        
A.Cautious
B.Doubtful
C.Negative
D.Favourable
(3)What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 mean?        
A.An underground ocean has been found in Europa.
B.The presence of an underground ocean in Europa is not possible.
C.It is now certain that there is an ocean on Europa.
D.No evidence haown the existence of an ocean on Europa.
(4)What type of writing does this passage belong to?        
A.A term essay
B.A news report
C.An experiment report
D.An exploration review

205508. (2020•莲湖区•高二下期末) Denmark is only about half the size of South Carolina,but it produces more of its electricity from wind than any other country in the world.Denmark now gets 47% of its electricity from wind,and there will be more to come,thanks to a combination of history and policy.
   Paul la Cour was a scientist and inventor who experimented with early wind power machines at the start of the 20th century.So it's not surprising that Denmark invested in building wind power the earliest.Since the 1970s,Denmark has been investing in wind energy all over the country.In the 1980s,due to a strong movement opposing nuclear power plants,Denmark increased its production of clean energy even before many other countries considered it.
   Even back in 2002,Denmark took climate change warnings seriously.They drew up policies,aiming to cut fossil-fuel emissions by 20%,which they did via renewable energy investment.Some of the world's largest companies in the field-including Vestas,which builds turbines(涡轮机),and Orsted,which specializes in offshore wind projects-are Danish,so the country has an impact beyond its borders.
   The huge impact of Denmark's wind industry is important.But Denmark is a small country,so while almost 50% of its electricity from wind is admirable,it's also minor in terms of entire global impact.
   While Denmark gets half its electricity from 5,758 megawatts (MW) of capacity,Spain's 23,000 MW covers just 18 percent of its electricity supply as it's a much bigger country.China is the leader in wind energy at 221,000 MW,and the U.S.is the second in the world at about 96,000 MW.
   At the end of 2019,lawmakers in Denmark set a new goal:increasing the share of electricity coming from renewable power to 100%.

(1)What can we know about Denmark?       
A.It is a leader in solar energy.
B.It is a pioneer in clean energy.
C.It is a victim of climate change.
D.It is an advocate of nuclear energy.
(2)What is Denmark government's attitude towards fossil-fuel energy projects?       
A.Indifferent.
B.Ambiguous.
C.Positive.
D.Opposed.
(3)Which country produces the most wind energy in the world?       
A.Denmark.
B.China.
C.The U.S.
D.Spain.
(4)What is the best title for the text?       
A.Almost Half of Denmark's Electricity Comes from Wind Power
B.Denmark's Government Pushes ahead with Fossil-fuel Projects
C.Denmark Has a Great Effect on World's Wind Power Equipment
D.Denmark Has a Long History of Developing Renewable Power
