Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn’t always easy. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product, even after it’s of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind. The materials of a product are usually our first focus. What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health. Packing (包装) is important. How is a product packed? Is it over-packed? We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packing, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packing or even choose unbagged products whenever possible. Location matters. Where was a product produced? Where are we buying it? Think about how much energy was used to get it to us. Try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmers, shop at markets and buy fruits in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice, because we can go there without driving a car. Look into what the company tells us about their product. It’s easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural”, but the words may be too good to be true. So, much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally responsible. The greenest thing is certainly the one we don’t buy. Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. Better than buying is choosing to leave an unnecessary product in the store and doing without. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces waste and keeps the planet healthy. 1. What do we know from Paragraph 1? A. Green is just a kind of color. B. Green also means taking actions to protect the environment. C. Deciding if a product is green is easy. D. It is a big step to buy a green product. 2. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Why we first focus materials of a product. B. What green products are made of. C. How a product is packed. D. Where a product is produced. 3. We’d better choose this kind of packing except ____ . A. glass B. metal C. paper D. plastic 4. According to the writer, we should choose a product that is ____ . A. made of unnatural materials B. produced abroad C. locally produced D. over packed 5. What is the best title for the passage? A. Reducing Energy Use. B. Keeping Healthy. C. Recycling Waste. D. Buying Green. 【答案】BADCD 【解析】 1. 题干意思：从第1段我们知道什么？A. 绿色只是一种颜色；B. 绿色还意味着采取行动保护环境；C. 判断一个产品是否是绿色的很容易；D. 购买绿色产品是一大进步。根据第1段“What does it mean to be green? Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment.（绿色意味着什么？绿色不仅仅是一种颜色。这也意味着采取特殊措施来保护环境。）”可知，绿色也意味着采取行动保护环境。故选B。 2. 题干意思：第2段主要谈论关于什么？A. 为什么我们首先关注产品的材料；B. 什么是绿色产品；C. 产品是如何包装的；D. 产品生产地。根据第2段“Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health.（绿色产品是由更天然的材料，不含有害化学物质，所以它们可以对我们的身体健康有好处。）”可知，第2段主要讲述了为什么我们首先会关注产品的材料。故选A。 3. 题干意思：除了 ____ ，我们最好选择这种包装。根据第3段“We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packing, as these can be reused or more easily recycled.（我们最好选择玻璃包装、金属包装和纸质包装，因为这些包装可以重复使用或更容易回收。）”可知，我们最好选择玻璃包装、金属包装和纸质包装。故选D。 4. 题干意思：根据作者的说法，我们应该选择 ____ 的产品。A. 由非天然材料制成；B. 国外生产；C. 本地生产；D. 过度包装。根据第4段“Try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmers, shop at markets and buy fruits in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice, because we can go there without driving a car.（尽量选择当地产品。说到食物，最好直接从当地农民那里订购，在市场上购物，购买当季水果。从我们家附近的商店购买也是一个不错的选择，因为我们可以不用开车去那里。）”可知，我们应该选择当地生产的产品。故选C。 5. 题干意思：这篇文章的最佳标题是什么？A. 减少能源使用；B. 保持健康；C. 废物回收；D. 购买绿色。根据第1段“Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn’t always easy. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product, even after it’s of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind.（然而，决定一个产品是否绿色并不总是那么容易。我们需要考虑产品的整个生命周期，甚至在它毫无用处之后。以下是我们应该记住的。）”以及通读全文可知，本文主要围绕购买绿色产品展开论述，并介绍了如何购买绿色产品的方法，所以本文的最佳标题是“绿色购物”。故选D。 C I saved the grain carefully and finally had enough to plant. I built a wall around my garden to keep the wild goats away. Then when my crop bore its fruit, the birds discovered it. The birds were not afraid of my dog at all. I shot them but as soon as I walked away, they returned. At last, I killed some birds and hung them among the crop, hoping they would serve as the scarecrows, which turned out to be successful. By harvest time, I had nearly two bushels of rice and two and a half bushels of wheat. With my new grain to store, I found a new problem. The fine grain ran through my baskets. It took me nearly two months to form and dry two ugly pots — one for rice and one for wheat. Next I formed a clay oven and made some other tools from hard wood and cloth to bake bread. I made and baked bread in my oven. I spent the third year on the island in farming and baking. Soon after that, I began to think of my days sailing in a tidy boat with Xury. I wished to have a boat and explore the island by sea. I tried to turn over the ship’s boat that I had seen washed up, but failed. I was still determined to have a boat. So I chose a strong tree and spent weeks cutting it down. Then it took me months to turn it from tree to boat. When it was time to launch (下水), I realized I had made my boat too far from the nearest stream. The boat was far too heavy for me to move. I tried bringing the water to the boat instead of the boat to the water. I soon saw it would take me twenty years of constant labor. I celebrated my fourth year on the island with two boats, but I was no closer to a sea journey. —Taken from The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe 1. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us ____ . A. how much rice and wheat the writer harvested B. how many tools the writer made to bake bread C. how the writer protected his crop from the birds D. how the writer kept the wild goats away from his crop 2.

A. he was getting closer and closer to the sea B. he was getting farther and farther from the sea C. it was possible for him to have a sea journey in his boats D. it was still impossible for him to explore the island by sea 4.

It is a practice called shinrin-yoku, which can be translated as “taking in the medicine or air of the forest”. It has recently grown more popular worldwide. When people take time in the natural green world to “be” in a fully present way, studies show it does good to health. ②One of the good points of taking a walk in nature is getting away from screens. When we enjoy nature, we keep ourselves away from computers or mobile phones. We take a break and allow ourselves to get strength and energy back. During forest bathing, we are all slowing down, stopping making quick decisions, experiencing the pleasure of nature through all of our senses, enjoying being alive, and enjoying just being in the present moment. ③In fact, forest bathing is also becoming a more and more popular way of treating stress (压力). Forest bathing is believed to help those experiencing stressful situations. In one recent study, people who formed the habits of walking through forests had lowered blood pressure (血压), and got rid of worries. ④At the same time, bathing in forest air produces more natural killer (NK) cells (细胞) in our blood. Our body uses these NK cells to fight illness. One Japanese study showed a rise in the number and activity of these NK cells among people who forest bathe. Plants and trees in forests can also send out something called phytoncides (芬多精). This tree oil can not only protect plants and trees themselves, but also help people sleep well, bring joy and boost health. ⑤Forest bathing needs repeated practice. It’s not a one-and-done quick fix. Studies in England on green spaces showed spending at least 120 minutes a week in nature helps with good health. It doesn’t matter whether you break up the two hours into shorter walks in a local park filled with lots of trees or spend an afternoon in a forest. ⑥Taking a quick walk through nature and rushing through the activity to get back to work, let’s say, may not be as helpful. Nor is it advised to play loud music as you walk. ⑦Forest bathing shows a different way of life. You’re walking through nature in a forest and taking your time. You’re noticing feelings and starting more of a relaxing and meaningful life. 1. According to the passage, during forest bathing, people may ____ . A. get back to work quickly B. make decisions more quickly C. use less energy when exercising D. keep themselves away from worries 2. What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Risk. B. Improve. C. Harm. D. Develop. 3. About forest bathing, the writer might agree that ____ . A. people should form a habit of walking in nature B. playing light music while walking can be helpful C. walking for at least 2 hours each time is necessary D. both NK cells and phytoncides are produced by plants 4. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ B. ①②/③④⑤/⑥/⑦ C. ①/②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ D. ①②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How can we enjoy forest baths in nature? B. Is forest bathing helpful or unhelpful? C. Forest bathing is a great help from nature. D. Forest bathing is a way to change nature. 【答案】DBAAC 【解析】这篇短文主要介绍了森林浴的概念和好处。 1. 题干意思：根据文章，在森林沐浴期间，人们可能 ____。A. 赶快回去工作；B. 更快地做决定；C. 运动时少消耗能量；D. 让自己远离烦恼。根据第3段“In one recent study, people who formed the habits of walking through forests had lowered blood pressure (血压), and got rid of worries.（在最近的一项研究中，那些养成了在森林里散步的习惯的人血压降低了，也摆脱了烦恼。）”可知在森林浴期间，人们可以让自己远离烦恼，故选D。 2. 题干意思：第四段中下划线的“boost”可能是什么意思？根据第4段“One Japanese study showed a rise in the number and activity of these NK cells among people who forest bathe.

This tree oil can not only protect plants and trees themselves, but also help people sleep well, bring joy and boost health.（日本的一项研究表明，在森林浴的人群中，这些自然杀伤细胞（NK细胞）的数量和活性都有所增加。森林里的植物和树木也会释放出一种叫做杀植物剂的物质。这种树油不仅可以保护植物和树木本身，还可以帮助人们睡得好，带来快乐，……健康。）”可推知此处是指睡得好，就能提高我们的健康，可知boost意思是“提高，促进”，与“improve”同义，故选B。 3. 题干意思：关于森林浴，作者可能会同意 ____ 。A. 人们应该养成在大自然中散步的习惯；B. 走路时播放轻音乐会有所帮助；C. 每次步行至少2小时是必要的；D.

If you ask people from the UK, most of them will tell you it’s “autumn”. But if you go to the US, you will find that people use both “autumn” and “fall”. __1__________ According to Dictionary.com, both words have been around for a long time, but they were not the first to describe this season. During this season, crops would become ripe and farmers would have a big harvest. __2__________ Then, in the 1600s, more people left their farms and moved to cities. With fewer people farming, the word “harvest” became less useful. English speakers needed a different name for the season. __3__________ So people started calling it “the fall of the leaf”, or “fall” for short. __4__________ More and more people started to use “autumn”. It slowly replaced “fall” as the word for this season. At the same time, British people were making their first trips to North America. __5__________ That’s why today’s Americans have two names for one season. A. But at the end of the 1600s, the word “autumn” came to England. B. They brought both the words “fall”and “autumn” with them. C. So in Old English, this season was simply called “harvest”. D. They knew leaves fell from trees during the season. E. Why does this season have two names in English? F. However, they had no idea what name to use. G. People held kinds of activities to celebrate for best wishes. 【答案】ECDAB 【解析】 1. 细节推理题。根据上文“If you ask people from the UK, most of them will tell you it’s “autumn”. But if you go to the US, you will find that people use both “autumn” and “fall”.（如果你问英国人，大多数人会告诉你现在是‘autumn’。但是如果你去美国，你会发现人们同时使用‘autumn’和‘fall’。）”可知说的是秋天的两个英文名字，E选项“Why does this season have two names in English?（为什么这个季节在英语中有两个名字。）”符合题意。故选E。 2. 细节推理题。根据上文“During this season, crops would become ripe and farmers would have a big harvest. （在这个季节，庄稼会成熟，农民会有大丰收。）”可知说的是秋天是个收获的季节，C选项“So in Old English, this season was simply called “harvest”.（所以在古英语中，这个季节被简单地称为‘harvest’。）”符合题意。故选C。 3. 细节推理题。根据下文“So people started calling it “the fall of the leaf”, or “fall” for short.（所以人们开始称它为‘落叶’，或者简称为‘fall’。）”可知此处说的是人们为秋天起了“fall”这个名字的原因，D选项”They knew leaves fell from trees during the season.（他们知道在这个季节树叶会从树上掉下来。）”符合题意。故选D。 4. 细节推理题。根据下文“More and more people started to use “autumn”. It slowly replaced “fall” as the word for this season.（越来越多的人开始使用‘autumn’。它慢慢取代了‘fall’，成为这个季节的代名词。）”可知此处是指人们开始使用“autumn”这个词，A选项“But at the end of the 1600s, the word “autumn” came to England.（但是在17世纪末，“autumn”这个词来到了英国。）”符合题意。故选A。 5. 细节推理题。根据上文“At the same time, British people were making their first trips to North America.（与此同时，英国人第一次去北美旅行。）”结合下文“That’s why today’s Americans have two names for one season.（这就是为什么今天的美国人对一个季节有两个名字。）”可知说的是秋天有两个名字的原因，B选项“They brought both the words “fall”and “autumn” with them.（应说他们把‘fall’和‘autumn’两个词都带来了。）”符合题意。故选B。 五、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In China, there are many amazing intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产).

For the first time in history, people could talk to someone far away just like they were in the same room. But today, phones can do much more than just make calls! The story of mobile phones began with two-way radios. These early devices (设备) had a big problem — they only worked when people were close to each other. In the 1940s, smart scientists found a way. They built tall radio towers across the country to pass signals (信号) easily. Everything changed in 1973 when Dr. Martin Cooper made the first real mobile phone call. During the 1980s, mobile phones became smaller but were still very expensive. Only rich business people could afford them, and the phones looked like big plastic bricks. The 1990s brought another big change. Phones became cheaper and smaller, fitting easily in pockets. Soon, almost everyone had one. Text messaging became popular. People started writing short messages instead of making phone calls. Meeting time became more flexible (灵活的) because you could just text “I’ll be 15 minutes late.” Now we have smartphones — like powerful mini-computers in our pockets. We use them to take photos, watch videos, play games, and even help with housework! Messaging apps let us send videos and long messages easily. While phones help us stay connected, some people worry that we spend too much time on them. Looking back, it’s amazing how phones have changed. From Bell’s simple telephone to today’s smartphones, this has truly changed our lives. What will phones be able to do next? Only time will tell! 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超8个词 1.

It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn’t always easy. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product, even after it’s of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind. The materials of a product are usually our first focus. What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health. Packing (包装) is important. How is a product packed? Is it over-packed? We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packing, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packing or even choose unbagged products whenever possible. Location matters. Where was a product produced? Where are we buying it? Think about how much energy was used to get it to us. Try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmers, shop at markets and buy fruits in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice, because we can go there without driving a car. Look into what the company tells us about their product. It’s easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural”, but the words may be too good to be true. So, much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally responsible. The greenest thing is certainly the one we don’t buy. Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. Better than buying is choosing to leave an unnecessary product in the store and doing without. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces waste and keeps the planet healthy. 1. What do we know from Paragraph 1? A. Green is just a kind of color. B. Green also means taking actions to protect the environment. C. Deciding if a product is green is easy. D. It is a big step to buy a green product. 2. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Why we first focus materials of a product. B. What green products are made of. C. How a product is packed. D. Where a product is produced. 3. We’d better choose this kind of packing except ____ . A. glass B. metal C. paper D. plastic 4. According to the writer, we should choose a product that is ____ . A. made of unnatural materials B. produced abroad C. locally produced D. over packed 5. What is the best title for the passage? A. Reducing Energy Use. B. Keeping Healthy. C. Recycling Waste. D. Buying Green. C I saved the grain carefully and finally had enough to plant. I built a wall around my garden to keep the wild goats away. Then when my crop bore its fruit, the birds discovered it. The birds were not afraid of my dog at all. I shot them but as soon as I walked away, they returned. At last, I killed some birds and hung them among the crop, hoping they would serve as the scarecrows, which turned out to be successful. By harvest time, I had nearly two bushels of rice and two and a half bushels of wheat. With my new grain to store, I found a new problem. The fine grain ran through my baskets. It took me nearly two months to form and dry two ugly pots — one for rice and one for wheat. Next I formed a clay oven and made some other tools from hard wood and cloth to bake bread. I made and baked bread in my oven. I spent the third year on the island in farming and baking. Soon after that, I began to think of my days sailing in a tidy boat with Xury. I wished to have a boat and explore the island by sea. I tried to turn over the ship’s boat that I had seen washed up, but failed. I was still determined to have a boat. So I chose a strong tree and spent weeks cutting it down. Then it took me months to turn it from tree to boat. When it was time to launch (下水), I realized I had made my boat too far from the nearest stream. The boat was far too heavy for me to move. I tried bringing the water to the boat instead of the boat to the water. I soon saw it would take me twenty years of constant labor. I celebrated my fourth year on the island with two boats, but I was no closer to a sea journey. —Taken from The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe 1. Paragraph 2 mainly tells us ____ . A. how much rice and wheat the writer harvested B. how many tools the writer made to bake bread C. how the writer protected his crop from the birds D. how the writer kept the wild goats away from his crop 2. What does “a new problem” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. How to plant grain. B. How to make pots. C. How to store grain. D. How to fix the baskets. 3. By the last sentence “I was no closer to a sea journey”, the writer means ____ . A. he was getting closer and closer to the sea B. he was getting farther and farther from the sea C. it was possible for him to have a sea journey in his boats D. it was still impossible for him to explore the island by sea 4. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. The writer managed to turn over the ship’s boat. B. The writer spent months bringing the boat to the nearest stream. C. The writer tried to solve the problems with his courage and wisdom. D. The writer spent the third year on the island in farming and baking. 4. Where can we see the passage? A. In a story book. B. In a map. C. In a fashion magazine. D. In a guidebook. D ①Forest bathing began in Japan in the 1980s. It is a practice called shinrin-yoku, which can be translated as “taking in the medicine or air of the forest”. It has recently grown more popular worldwide. When people take time in the natural green world to “be” in a fully present way, studies show it does good to health. ②One of the good points of taking a walk in nature is getting away from screens. When we enjoy nature, we keep ourselves away from computers or mobile phones. We take a break and allow ourselves to get strength and energy back. During forest bathing, we are all slowing down, stopping making quick decisions, experiencing the pleasure of nature through all of our senses, enjoying being alive, and enjoying just being in the present moment. ③In fact, forest bathing is also becoming a more and more popular way of treating stress (压力). Forest bathing is believed to help those experiencing stressful situations. In one recent study, people who formed the habits of walking through forests had lowered blood pressure (血压), and got rid of worries. ④At the same time, bathing in forest air produces more natural killer (NK) cells (细胞) in our blood. Our body uses these NK cells to fight illness. One Japanese study showed a rise in the number and activity of these NK cells among people who forest bathe. Plants and trees in forests can also send out something called phytoncides (芬多精). This tree oil can not only protect plants and trees themselves, but also help people sleep well, bring joy and boost health. ⑤Forest bathing needs repeated practice. It’s not a one-and-done quick fix. Studies in England on green spaces showed spending at least 120 minutes a week in nature helps with good health. It doesn’t matter whether you break up the two hours into shorter walks in a local park filled with lots of trees or spend an afternoon in a forest. ⑥Taking a quick walk through nature and rushing through the activity to get back to work, let’s say, may not be as helpful. Nor is it advised to play loud music as you walk. ⑦Forest bathing shows a different way of life. You’re walking through nature in a forest and taking your time. You’re noticing feelings and starting more of a relaxing and meaningful life. 1. According to the passage, during forest bathing, people may ____ . A. get back to work quickly B. make decisions more quickly C. use less energy when exercising D. keep themselves away from worries 2. What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Risk. B. Improve. C. Harm. D. Develop. 3. About forest bathing, the writer might agree that ____ . A. people should form a habit of walking in nature B. playing light music while walking can be helpful C. walking for at least 2 hours each time is necessary D. both NK cells and phytoncides are produced by plants 4. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ B. ①②/③④⑤/⑥/⑦ C. ①/②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ D. ①②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ 5. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How can we enjoy forest baths in nature? B. Is forest bathing helpful or unhelpful? C. Forest bathing is a great help from nature. D. Forest bathing is a way to change nature. 四、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 What season is it in October? If you ask people from the UK, most of them will tell you it’s “autumn”. But if you go to the US, you will find that people use both “autumn” and “fall”. __1__________ According to Dictionary.com, both words have been around for a long time, but they were not the first to describe this season. During this season, crops would become ripe and farmers would have a big harvest. __2__________ Then, in the 1600s, more people left their farms and moved to cities.

It slowly replaced “fall” as the word for this season. At the same time, British people were making their first trips to North America. __5__________ That’s why today’s Americans have two names for one season. A. But at the end of the 1600s, the word “autumn” came to England. B. They brought both the words “fall”and “autumn” with them. C. So in Old English, this season was simply called “harvest”. D. They knew leaves fell from trees during the season. E. Why does this season have two names in English? F. However, they had no idea what name to use. G. People held kinds of activities to celebrate for best wishes. 五、阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In China, there are many amazing intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产).
