高中英语晨读小练素材 Every minute counts. 晨读小练58：选择性必修三 Unit 3 Using Language 课文翻译及语法填空 REDUCING WATER POLLUTION IN THE LI RIVER 减少漓江的水污染 Paragraph 1 The beautiful Li River and its amazing surrounding scenery is one of the most well-known tourist destinations in China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It attracts millions of domestic and foreign visitors each year. However, its reputation as a top destination has had negative effects on the river's water quality. This report looks at the problem of water pollution and some actions that have been taken to deal with it. 美丽的漓江及其迷人的风景是中国广西壮族自治区最著名的旅游胜地之一。它每年吸引数百万的国内外游客。然而，它作为顶级旅游胜地的声誉对河流的水质产生了负面影响。这份报告着眼于水污染问题以及为解决这个问题而采取的一些行动。 【重点必背】 one of the most well-known tourist destinations最著名的旅游目的地之一 have negative effects on对……产生负面影响 deal with处理；应对 Paragraph 2 Previously, water quality in the Li River had suffered greatly from an increasing volume of tourists, many of whom frequently threw garbage into the river. Many tour boats contributed to the problem too. Kitchens on board were using lots of oil, which was often thrown into the water. The growth in tourism also meant the local population rose rapidly, as well as the number of commercial and industrial enterprises. Water pollution levels increased, with more household and commercial waste ending up in the river. In order to feed more people, more chemicals were used to increase crop production. These chemicals led to severe water quality issues, causing a decrease in the number of fish species. Local officials were concerned that the pollution was damaging the natural environment and felt that urgent steps should be taken to restore the river's original beauty. 以往，漓江的水质因游客量的增长遭到了严重破坏，一些游客频繁将垃圾扔进江中。许多旅游船也导致了这个问题。船上的厨房用了大量的油，这些油经常被扔入水中。旅游业的增长也意味着当地人口以及商业和工业企业的数量迅速增加。水污染水平上升，更多的家庭和商业废物最终流入河中。为了养活更多的人，使用了更多的化学药品来增加农作物的产量。这些化学物质导致严重的水质问题，导致鱼类种类减少。当地官员担心污染正在破坏自然环境，并认为应采取紧急措施恢复河流的原始美景。 【重点必背】 suffer from遭受；因……而受苦 volume n. 量；体积；(成套书籍中的)一卷 garbage n. 垃圾；废物 contribute to有助于；导致 enterprise n. 公司；企业；事业 end up最终 restore vt. 恢复；使复原；修复 Paragraphs 3-4 A comprehensive initiative was started, with a number of measures that addressed the issues. The construction of waste water treatment facilities improved the water quality and water conservation. The collection and transport of household waste was also improved. Dozens of polluting enterprises were closed or moved. The local government set up strict regulations regarding further industrial development. New rules were also introduced regarding tour boat routes and garbage disposal methods. Furthermore, the local authorities began to use the media to spread environmental awareness and encourage greater use of clean energy. At the same time, they started to carry out inspections regularly and fine tourist organisations for abuses. With these measures, it is believed that the beauty of the Li River will be preserved for generations to come. In addition, the ambitious "Water Ten Plan" is also now tackling water pollution across the country. Other initiatives, such as the "River Chief System", hold senior officials responsible for reducing water pollution. With such campaigns in effect, China's waterways are heading towards a clean and sustainable future. 一项全面倡议启动了，采取了若干措施来解决这些问题。污水处理设施的建设改善了水质，节约了用水。生活垃圾的收集和运输也得到了改善。数十家污染企业被关闭或搬迁。地方政府对进一步发展工业制定了严格的规定。有关旅游船路线和垃圾处理方法的新规定也已出台。此外，地方当局开始利用媒体宣传环境意识，鼓励更多地使用清洁能源。同时，他们开始定期进行检查，并对旅游组织的陋习进行罚款。相信通过这些措施，漓江之美将得以世代相传。 另外，"水十条"的宏伟规划则是为了治理整个国家的水污染问题。例如"河长制"这样的举措让高级官员承担起减少水污染的责任。随着这些行动（的展开），中国的水资源正朝着洁净的、可持续发展的未来迈进。 【重点必背】 conservation n.（对环境、文物等）保护→ conserve v. 保护；保存 → conservative adj. 保守的 dozens of许多；很多 set up建立；开业；树立 carry out执行，实行；贯彻 inspection n. 检查；查看；视察→ inspect vt. 检查；视察 → inspector n. 检察员；督察员 fine vt. 对……处以罚款 preserve vt. 保存；保护；维持 campaign n. 运动；战役 vi.&vt. 参加运动；领导运动 【课文佳句】 With these measures, it is believed that the beauty of the Li River will be preserved for generations to come.（it is believed that...） 有了这些举措，相信漓江之美将得到保护并世代相传。 【重点短语】 1.on behalf of 代表(代替)某人 2.dozens of 许多；很多 3.refer to 参考；涉及；指的是 4.have an effect on 对……产生影响 5.lead to 导致；通向 6.end up 最终 7.contribute to 有助于；导致 8.set up 建立；开业；树立 9.carry out 执行，实行；贯彻 10.in effect 实际上；生效 【单元话题作文】 (2024·山东省新高考联合模拟)假定你是李华，你将参加一个以“Live a Green Life”为主题的英语演讲活动，现需写一篇英语演讲稿。内容包括：1.绿色生活的意义和方式；2.发出号召。 Ladies and gentlemen， Green is the symbol of life and living green has become the priority of many people. To achieve a green life style，we must adjust our behavior.For example， we could sort out our trash for better recycling and use electricity only when needed.Other simple steps that make a big difference include using public transportation instead of driving private cars，which not only relieves traffic jams but also reduces gas emission. Let's pull together to live in harmony with nature and contribute to the building of an ecological world. SMALL WASTE, BIG PROBLEM 小垃圾，大问题 Paragraphs 1-2 Many of us might not give a second thought to dropping a small piece of litter. After all, it is so small, it cannot possibly be that harmful, can it? In today's world, the answer is certainly "Yes it can!" With the growing use of plastic bags and the rising number of smokers, there is more litter being produced than ever before. Although cigarette butts are small, they are bad for the environment. Worldwide, about 4.3 trillion cigarette butts are littered every year. As well as spoiling the beauty of the environment, they contain toxic chemicals. These find their way into the water supply where they affect water quality and endanger plants and animals. Cigarette butts can take up to 25 years to break down, and the toxic chemicals add up to a large amount with so many littered. So, if people want to smoke they should dispose of the butts properly in a rubbish bin. 我们很多人往往不会多想就扔掉一小块垃圾。毕竟它这么小，不可能有那么大的危害吧？在当今世界，答案当然是"是的，有！"。随着塑料袋的使用和吸烟者的增加，产生的垃圾比以往任何时候都多。 烟头虽小，却对环境有害。全世界每年约有4.3万亿个烟头被乱扔。除了破坏环境的美丽，它们还含有有毒的化学物质。这些物质会进入水源，影响水质，危害动植物。烟头需要长达25年的时间才能分解，而有毒的化学物质会随着这么多烟头的乱扔而大量增加。所以，如果人们想吸烟，应该把烟蒂妥善地丢弃在垃圾箱里。 【重点必背】 after all毕竟；终究 as well as同(一样也)；和；还 find one's way into进入 break down消除；分解；打破 add up to累计达到 dispose of处理 Paragraphs 3-5 Plastic bags are another common form of litter that is dangerous to the environment. They are easily blown by wind and float in water, so they can travel long distances. They find their way to rivers, parks, beaches and oceans, killing many birds, mammals, fish, and sea animals each year worldwide. They can last for hundreds of years in the environment. We should not let plastic bags become litter. We should use fewer plastic bags, and reuse and recycle what we have already used. One way to reduce the use of plastic bags is to charge for them. Shops used to give plastic bags for free. But in some countries, including China, customers are now charged for each bag. Some shops also have a "bag-for-life" scheme. They sell stronger bags that can be reused, and they replace them for free if the bags ever break. Waste is a big problem for the environment, so we need to do something. Not littering at all or cleaning up "small waste" saves money spent on disposing of litter properly. However, it would be better not to smoke or use plastic bags at all. 塑料袋是另一种常见的对环境有危害的垃圾。它们很容易被风吹动，漂浮在水面上，所以它们可以长途跋涉。它们进入河流、公园、海滩和海洋，每年在世界各地杀死许多鸟类、哺乳动物、鱼类和海洋动物。它们可以在环境中持续数百年。我们不应该让塑料袋成为垃圾。我们应该减少使用塑料袋，并将已经使用过的塑料袋再利用和回收。 减少使用塑料袋的方法之一是收费。以前商店都会免费赠送塑料袋。但在包括中国在内的一些国家，现在却要向顾客收取每个袋子的费用。有些商店还实行"可重复使用的环保购物袋"计划。他们出售可以重复使用的更结实的袋子，如果袋子破损，他们会免费更换。 垃圾是环境的一个大问题，所以我们需要做点什么。完全不乱扔垃圾或清理"小垃圾"，可以节省用于妥善处理垃圾的费用。但是，最好不要吸烟或使用塑料袋。 【重点必背】 blown by wind被风吹动 mammal哺乳动物 last for持续 charge for对……收费 for free免费 clean up打扫(或清除)干净 【小练1】课文语法填空 （根据课文内容，用所给词的正确形式填空） 1.
