He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp（煤油灯）. Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar（太阳能的）light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 6. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Leaving school. B. Doing homework. C. Having eye problems. D. Having a bright idea. 7. How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2? A. 6. B. 5. C. 4. D. 3. 8. Put the following information into correct order according to the passage. a. Evans went to a university. b. Thousands of people had safe light. c. His first solar lamp was invented. d. Kerosene lamps hurt Evans’ eyes. e. Recycled materials were used in the lamps. f. People from many countries gave away money. A. d-a-c-e-f-b B. d-f-b-a-e-c C. a-d-f-e-c-b D. a-e-c-d-f-b 9. Why does the writer give Julia’s example in Paragraph 5? A. To share Julia’s experience. B. To show Evans’ influence. C. To describe Evans’ feelings. D. To introduce Evans’ invention. 10. What is Evans like according to the passage? A. Polite, talented and humorous. B. Quiet, smart and honest. C. Humorous, clever and friendly. D. Hard-working, loving and creative. 【答案】6. C 7. C 8. A 9. B 10. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了Evans发明并制作太阳能灯的过程。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult.”可知，Evans的眼睛疼，这使学习很困难。因此this指代“眼睛疼”这件事。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据“First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food.”可知，首先，它会导致咳嗽等疾病。此外，光线会伤害人们的眼睛。此外，它还可能导致火灾。最后，煤油很贵，所以家庭买食物的钱更少。因此，文章一共提到使用煤油灯的4个问题。故选C。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult.”可知，煤油灯让Evans的眼睛疼。根据“Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university.”可知，尽管学习非常艰难，Evans是个优秀的学生，并进入了大学。根据“Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked.”可知，Evans制作了第一台太阳能灯。根据“First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free.”可知，Evans使用回收材料制灯，志愿者也来制灯，最后，来自许多国家的人给他的团队捐款。因此，事件的正确顺序为d-a-c-e-f-b。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, ‘Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.’ The solar lamps made a big difference.”可知，成千上万的人有安全的照明。Julia是三个孩子的母亲，她说：“多亏了Evans，我的孩子们有了读书的灯，我也有了做饭的灯。”太阳能灯起到了很大的作用。举Julia的例子是为了说明Evans的发明创造给人们带来的影响。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。通读本文可知，Evans在艰苦的学习环境下还上了大学，说明他非常勤奋，他为了解决使用煤油灯带来的一系列问题，发明创造了太阳能灯，说明他富有创造性，他想方设法降低太阳能灯的制作成本，让穷人也能用得上太阳能灯，说明他富有爱心。故选D。 C There are some easy things you can do to protect (保护) the earth in your everyday life. ·Plant flowers, grass or trees. ·When you visit a park or the beach, take away what you take there.

He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp（煤油灯）. Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult. It was common in his village. Many children left school for this reason, so they remained poor for the rest of their lives. Although studying was difficult, Evans was an excellent student and went to a university. He continued to worry about the kerosene lamp. By this time, he realized it was not just bad for schoolchildren but for the whole family. First, it can cause illnesses such as coughs. Also, the light can hurt people’s eyes. Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive, so families have less money for food. It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment. Yet Evans did not give up. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar（太阳能的）light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp, and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost $20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned around $34 a week, so Evans made sure he kept the cost down. First, Evans used recycled materials. Next, volunteers built the lamps. Finally, people from many countries gave away money to his team, so the lamps were usually free. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 6. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A Leaving school. B. Doing homework. C. Having eye problems. D. Having a bright idea. 7. How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph 2? A. 6. B. 5. C. 4. D. 3. 8. Put the following information into correct order according to the passage. a. Evans went to a university. b. Thousands of people had safe light. c. His first solar lamp was invented. d. Kerosene lamps hurt Evans’ eyes. e. Recycled materials were used in the lamps. f. People from many countries gave away money. A. d-a-c-e-f-b B. d-f-b-a-e-c C. a-d-f-e-c-b D. a-e-c-d-f-b 9. Why does the writer give Julia’s example in Paragraph 5? A. To share Julia’s experience. B. To show Evans’ influence. C. To describe Evans’ feelings. D. To introduce Evans’ invention. 10. What is Evans like according to the passage? A. Polite, talented and humorous. B. Quiet, smart and honest. C. Humorous, clever and friendly. D. Hard-working, loving and creative. C There are some easy things you can do to protect (保护) the earth in your everyday life. ·Plant flowers, grass or trees. ·When you visit a park or the beach, take away what you take there. Keep rubbish in a bag until you can put it in a dustbin (垃圾桶). ·Turn off the lights and TV set when you leave the room.
