THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD
1 How would you like to spend six months living on an island and looking after the Great Barrier Reef①?The working hours are flexible and accommodation② is provided.Key duties include exploring the islands of the reef and finding out what the area has to offer.[1] You'll need to report back via③ weekly blogs,photo diaries and video updates④.You'll also be asked to promote⑤ the islands through newspapers,magazines and TV interviews.
[1]本句为主从复合句。include后是两个并列的动词-ing形式短语作宾语;finding out后是what引导的宾语从句,what在从句中作宾语。
2This call for an island caretaker attracted interest from all over the world. It was actually a very clever means⑥ to highlight the importance of⑦ the Great Barrier Reef and the need to protect it.
3Located off the coast of North-east Australia,the Great Barrier Reef is the largest living thing on the planet. About the size of Japan,it even can be seen from outer space⑧.More than 25 million years old,the Great Barrier Reef is made up of⑨ living coral growing on dead coral.It is host⑩ to many species of birds and sea creatures.But this unique and delicate place is now under threat⑪ from pollution and climate change.
4To get this job,the candidates⑫ had to make a short video showing how much they knew about the reef.They also needed to prove⑬ why they were the best person to do the job.Out of the thousands of applicants⑭,eleven were selected,including a young woman from China.Eventually,the job was offered to Ben Southall from the UK.
5Ben did a lot during his time as an island caretaker.In addition to⑮ blogging,taking photos and writing articles about the reef,he made a number of⑯ appearances⑰ on television to argue in favour⑱ of its defence⑲.He also worked as a presenter⑳ for the National Geographic
学生用书第150页
Channel,before going on to write a book about his experiences.Ben later joked that the job should have been advertised㉑ not as the “best”,but the “busiest job in the world”![2]
[2]本句为主从复合句。that在此引导宾语从句,作joked的宾语;该宾语从句中,should have been advertised属于 “情态动词 + have done”结构。
6Whether it was a genuine job offer or an eye-catching marketing event isn't really important. The most important thing was that people all over the world became aware of the beauty of the ocean in the area.What's more,they came to understand the delicate balance that the environment exists in and what can,and must,be done to protect the reef.That way,it will remain a safe habitat for wildlife,as well as a dream destination for the millions of tourists who visit it each year.
[文化采风]
大堡礁是世界上最大、最长的珊瑚礁群。它纵贯澳洲的东北沿海,北起托雷斯海峡,南至南回归线以南,绵延伸展约2 000千米,最宽处约160千米。大堡礁包含2 900个珊瑚礁,自然景观非常独特。大堡礁在1981年被列入《世界遗产名录》。

全世界最好的工作
你觉得在岛上生活6个月,照看大堡礁怎么样?工作时间灵活,提供住宿。主要职责包括探索礁岛,了解该地区都有些什么。你将要通过每周博客、照片日记和视频更新汇报工作。你还要通过报纸、杂志和电视采访宣传这些岛屿。
这一招聘岛屿管理员的呼吁引起了全世界的兴趣。这确实是一种强调大堡礁的重要性和保护它的必要性的非常高明的手段。
大堡礁位于澳大利亚东北海岸,是地球上最大的生物。大堡礁的面积与日本(的面积)大致相当,从外太空都能看到它。它有着2 500多万年的历史,由生长在死珊瑚上的活珊瑚组成。众多鸟类和海洋生物栖息于此。然而,这个独特又脆弱的地方正在遭受污染和气候变化带来的威胁。
要得到这份工作,候选人必须制作一个短片,展示他们对于大堡礁了解多少。他们还需要证明为什么自己是做这项工作的最佳人选。在数以千计的申请人当中11人被选中,其中包括一名来自中国的年轻女性。最终,来自英国的本·索撒尔获得了这份工作。
本在当岛屿管理员期间做了很多事。除了写博客、拍照和撰写有关大堡礁的文章以外,他还多次在电视上露面,为保护大堡礁辩护。他也是国家地理频道的主持人,随后还着手写了一本关于个人经历的书。本后来开玩笑说,这份工作不应宣传为“最好的”,而应是“世界上最繁忙的工作”!
不管这是一份真诚的工作邀请还是一次引人注目的营销活动并不重要。最重要的是,世界各地的人开始意识到这片地区的海洋是多么美丽。此外,他们开始理解当地环境平衡的脆弱性,以及人们可以,并且必须做些什么来保护大堡礁。那样,它将会继续成为野生动物的安全栖息地和每年来此参观的数百万游客的梦想目的地。

(2024·福建省南平市高二上期中)
There is hope for our planet's survival. Innovative products are being designed to reduce our dependence on plastic, single-use plastic in particular.
One such innovation comes from international design firm Carlo Ratti Associati with its “Feel the Peel” machine, an experimental rounded juice bar that not only makes freshly squeezed orange juice, but also 3D prints a recyclable bio-plastic cup with the leftover orange peels (果皮) .
Designed with global energy company Eni, the juicer is 10 feet tall and topped with a massive dome (圆顶), feeding the juicer with oranges on demand. The dome is made up of round tracks that hold up to 1, 500 oranges. A 3D printer is set up in the base of the machine.
The machine goes like magic. When an order is placed, the oranges slide down the tracks to a squeezer, and the juice is then deposited (使沉积) into an “orange peel” bio-plastic cup, ready to enjoy. Meanwhile, the freshly squeezed peels fall down a tube and gather at the bottom of the machine where they are dried, milled and mixed with Poly lactic Acid, creating a bio-plastic material. The bio-plastic is then heated and melted into a filament (细丝) and the 3D printer then creates recyclable bio-plastic cups, ready to be filled with freshly squeezed juice.
How cool that is! It seems that Carlo Ratti Associati and Eni have plans to take “Feel the Peel” beyond just orange juice.
“The principle of recycling is a must for today's objects,” says Carlo Ratti, “Working with Eni, we tried to show recycling in a very tangible way, by developing a machine that helps us to understand how oranges can be used well beyond their juice. The next improvement of “Feel the Peel” might include new functions, such as printing fabric for clothing from orange peels.”
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个名为“Feel the Peel”的机器,不仅可以制作新鲜压榨的橙汁,还可以用剩余的橙子皮3D打印出可回收的生物塑料杯子。

(2024·广东省佛山市高二上期中)
In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let's say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately: is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods?
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide(CO2)from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use—those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the “secondary footprint” group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances(设备)that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了作者一直努力减少生活中的碳足迹,但是新型环保产品和使用过的传统生产的产品,哪一种更能减少碳足迹呢?作者通过研究和对比给我们找到了答案:他们各有千秋。
5.What is the text mainly about?
A.What appliances to buy to save energy.
B.What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C.How to identify different carbon footprints.
D.How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
答案:D
解析:主旨大意题。根据文章第一段最后一句“But one question has been...traditionally produced goods?”及全文内容可知,文章主要探讨了如何降低碳排放量,介绍了如何正确做出一些环境友好的生活选择。故选D。
6.What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint?
A.It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B.It is made when we are buying the products.
C.It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D.It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中“The secondary footprint is a measure of...related to their production and breakdown.”可知,第二种碳足迹虽然不是我们直接产生的,但是也是我们使用的产品释放出来的,也是要归结到我们身上的。故选D。
7.Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author?
A.Using second-hand textbooks.
B.Using old and expensive cars.
C.Buying new but cheap clothes.
D.Buying new wooden furniture.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段“Things like dishes...goods to avoid the added production.”可知,像盘子、衣服和家具这样的物品是属于 “第二类型的足迹”,所以是越少越好,我们应该注重寻找用过的物品来避免额外的生产。二手书是属于和衣服等可以二次使用的物品,符合题意。故选A。
8.“The footprint”underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in .
A.using the product
B.recycling the product
C.making the product
D.transporting the product
答案:A
解析:词义猜测题。根据第四段最后一句可知,footprint在其后定语从句the product will make once it gets to you充当make的宾语,意思是“这种碳足迹就是产品到你手里之后,你使用中所产生的”。由此推知,画线词组the footprint指的是“产品使用过程中产生的二氧化碳”。故选A。

1.答案:strength
解析:考查词性转换。空处应用名词,作build的宾语。strength意为“体力,力量”,为不可数名词。故填strength。
2.答案:their
解析:考查代词。根据空后的home可知,空处应用形容词性物主代词,作定语。故填their。
3.答案:to ensure
解析:考查非谓语动词。这里表示目的,在湿地巡逻是为了确保鸟类有一个安全的环境,所以应用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to ensure。
4.答案:and
解析:考查连词。conducting...和monitoring...之间是并列关系,故填and。
5.答案:arrivals
解析:考查名词的单复数。arrival意为“到达者”,为可数名词,且空前有these,所以这里应用名词复数。故填arrivals。
6.答案:what
解析:考查名词性从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导宾语从句,作created的宾语,且从句中缺少calls的宾语。故填what。
