A rare snowfall in the Taklimakan Desert, northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, has created very beautiful views. Because of the cold front, the snow hit the desert on November 28, turning the rolling desert dunes(连绵起伏的沙丘) into what appear like snow-capped mountains.
The city of Chicago has continued its 60-year tradition of dyeing(染色) the Chicago River green for St. Patrick’s Day. The river was painted by boats on a three-quarter-mile stretch(一段) from Orleans Street to Columbus Drive with a more eco-friendly powder made from vegetables.
The Mu Us Desert, one of China’s four major deserts, covers an area of 42,200 square kilometers, which used to be completely short of trees and farmland. From 1959 on, local people planted trees to stop sandstorms, extending the green area 400 kilometers northward after years of efforts(努力). Today, the desert has almost disappeared from the map as about 93 percent of it has turned green.
1.What was the weather like in the Taklimakan Desert on November 28?
A.Warm. B.Rainy. C.Snowy. D.Cool.
2.Why was the Chicago River green in color?
A.Because there were lots of green boats.
B.Because it was polluted by waste water.
C.Because lots of trees were planted near the river.
D.Because it was painted by the powder made from vegetables.
3.Why has the Mu Us Desert turned green?
A.Because people planted many trees there.
B.Because the weather gets better and better.
C.Because there is lots of snow these years.
D.Because people dug a green river.
4.What does the underlined word “extending” mean in Chinese?
A.缩小 B.延伸 C.期待 D.提高
5.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Two deserts are mentioned in the material.
B.The Mu Us Desert has disappeared completely.
C.The Taklimakan Desert is in the northwest of China.
D.Keeping planting trees in the desert can make it get smaller and smaller.
1.C 细节理解题。由第一则材料的第二句可知,11月28日,塔克拉玛干沙漠下起了雪。故选C。
2.D 细节理解题。由第二则材料的最后一句可知,芝加哥河之所以是绿色的,是因为它被由蔬菜制成的粉末染色了。故选D。
3.A 细节理解题。由第三则材料的第二句可知,毛乌素沙漠之所以变绿是因为人们在那里种了很多树。故选A。
4.B 词义猜测题。由该词前“从1959年起,当地人种植树木以阻止沙尘暴”和该词后句“经过多年的努力”可推出此处表达的是“绿化区向北延伸了400公里”,所以extend意为“延伸”。故选B。
5.B 细节理解题。由第三则材料的最后一句可知,如今,毛乌素沙漠的93%已经变绿。由此可知93%的沙漠消失了,但整个沙漠没有完全消失。故B项表述错误。故选B。
