Conquering The Economist:A Reader’s Dilemma
Reading English journals has been a big headache for me recently,so I’m writing to seek your specific advice.Three months ago,I began my journey with The Economist but I soon felt overwhelmed when exposed to so many unfamiliar words.Hard as I tried to refer to dictionaries,sometimes I couldn’t make sense of the whole sentence,let alone the whole passage.Meanwhile,I have worked hard to enlarge my vocabulary by reading varieties of classic novels. Despite attempts and efforts,those English journals defeat me and I am now still a struggling reader in a sea of new words.Given your expertise in language teaching,I would appreciate it if you could give me some guidance.

(2025全国一卷,阅读D)
Microplastics have become a common source of pollution across the Earth—they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas,stuck inside volcanic rocks,filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow.They are even appearing inside humans.
Now,new research suggests that a simple,cheap measure may significantly reduce the level of microplastics in water from your tap(水龙头): boiling and filtering(过滤) it.In a study published Wednesday in Environmental Science & Technology Letters,researchers from China found that boiling tap water for just five minutes—then filtering it after it cools—could remove at least 80 percent of its microplastics.
Crucially,this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate(碳酸钙) to trap the plastics.In the study,boiling hard water containing 300 milligrams of calcium carbonate led to an almost 90 percent drop in plastics.But in samples with less than 60 milligrams of calcium carbonate,boiling reduced the level of plastics by just 25 percent.Additionally, the research didn’t include all types of plastics.The team focused only on three common types—polystyrene,polyethylene and polypropylene—and they didn’t study other chemicals previously found in water such as vinyl chloride.
Still,the findings show a potential path forward for reducing microplastic exposure—a task that’s becoming increasingly difficult.Even bottled water, scientists found earlier this year,contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought.
Scientists are still trying to determine how harmful microplastics are—but what they do know has raised concerns.The new study suggests boiling tap water could be a tool to limit intake.“The way they demonstrated how microplastics were trapped through the boiling process was nice,” Caroline Gauchotte-Lindsay,an environmental engineer at the University of Glasgow in Scotland who was not involved in the research,tells New Scientist.“We should be looking into upgrading drinking water treatment plants so they remove microplastics.”
一、理清脉络

二、真题再做
32.How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph?
A.By quoting an expert.
B.By defining a concept.
C.By giving examples.
D.By providing statistics.
√
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“they have settled in the deep sea and on the Himalayas,stuck inside volcanic rocks,filled the stomachs of seabirds and even fallen in fresh Antarctic snow.They are even appearing inside humans.(它们沉积在深海和喜马拉雅山,嵌入火山岩中,填满海鸟的胃部,甚至落在南极的新雪上。它们甚至出现在人类体内。)”可知,作者通过举例提出微塑料污染的问题。
33.What determines the effectiveness of trapping microplastics in water?
A.The hardness of water.
B.The length of cooling time.
C.The frequency of filtering.
D.The type of plastic in water.
√
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Crucially,this process relies on the water containing enough calcium carbonate (碳酸钙) to trap the plastics.(至关重要的是,这一过程依赖于含有足够碳酸钙的水来捕捉塑料)”并结合下文的研究数据可知,决定在水中捕捉微塑料的有效性的是水的硬度。
34.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning bottled water in paragraph 4?
A.The importance of plastic recycling.
B.The severity of the microplastic problem.
C.The danger in overusing pure water.
D.The difficulty in treating polluted water.
√
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Even bottled water,scientists found earlier this year,contains 10 to 1,000 times more microplastics than originally thought. (今年早些时候,科学家们发现,即使是瓶装水,其微塑料含量也比原先想象的高出10到1000倍。)”可知,作者提到瓶装水是为了说明微塑料污染问题的严重性。
35.What is Gauchotte-Lindsay’s suggestion about?
A.Choice of new research methods.
B.Possible direction for further study.
C.Need to involve more researchers.
D.Potential application of the findings.
√
细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知,研究发现了煮沸自来水可以减少微塑料这一成果,而Gauchotte-Lindsay建议升级饮用水处理厂来去除微塑料,这就是在探讨如何将这个研究结果应用到实际的饮用水处理中,属于研究结果的潜在应用,所以D项正确。
