A. 求一篇關於環境保護的高一英語閱讀理解
A desert is a beautiful land of silence and space. The sun shines, the wind blows, and time and space seem endless. Nothing is soft. The sand and rocks are hard, and many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves. The size and location(分布) of the world』s deserts are always changing. Over millions of years, as climates change and mountains rise, new dry and wet areas develop. But within the last 100 yeas, deserts have been growing at a frightening speed. This is partly because of natural changes, but the greatest makers are humans.Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth. Algeria Mauritania is planting a similar wall around Nouakchott, the capital. Iran puts a thin covering of petroleum(石油) on sandy areas and plants trees. The oil keeps the water and small trees in the land, and men on motorcycles(摩托車) keep the sheep and goats away. The USSR and India are building long canals to bring water to desert areas.
1. In this passage, 「needles」 refers to ___.
A. small, thin pieces of steel. B. long, thinieces of branches.
C. small pointed growth on the stem(莖) of a plant. D. small, thin pieces of sticks.
2. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The greatest desert makers are humans. B. There aren』t any living things in the deserts.
C. Deserts have been growing quickly. D. The size of the deserts is always changing.
3. People in some countries are fighting a battle against __.
A. the growth of deserts B. the disappearance of desert plants
C. natural changes D. congenital climate
4. We can guess that Mauritania and Algeria belong to __.
A. Asian countries B. American countries
C. European counties D. African countries
【答案與解析】文章主要講的是人們正採取措施控制和治理沙漠。
1. C。詞彙猜測題。從instead of leaves可知needles是沙漠中植物的葉子，眾所周知沙漠中植物的葉子是針狀的, 再看steel(鋼) 、) branches(樹枝) 、stick(棒) 都不是與葉對應的物體, 只有C項(長在植物莖上的尖的小物體)是「是針狀葉」的意思，故答案選C。
2. B。細節題。從many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves可知B項錯誤。
3. A。細節題。從Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth(認為可能造成沙漠，但人類也可以防止沙漠的增長)可知答案A正確。
4. D。推斷題。根據常識非洲沙漠遠近聞名, 這說明那裡最需要治理, 作者舉例也會舉典型的, 增加文章的可信度，故答案選D。
B. 英語閱讀理解題
一,C. 二,C 三,A.
四選C.A不用我說了.關於B.文中是這么說的:"如果僅僅是買一點東西的話,請不要帶袋子內."B選項的意思容是:"如果你要買一些東西你就需要在購物的時候帶上袋子." 文中的原句是成立的,B的意思是基於原文的一種推測假設.這假設成立嗎?未必.文中沒有明確地告訴我們當要買一些東西的時候,就必須帶袋子.這是一種"無中生有".而C,在第二句就可以找得到佐證.即便你用了$200,000美金來買bottled water,依然有10美分是用來充當包裝費."Ten cents of every shopping dollar is used to pay for packing."
五選A.假如你這篇文章是整篇的話,選這個應該不錯.因為文章把Save money和environment聯系得很緊.B,C都是片面的總結.文章步步為營的闡述了如何既省錢,又環保.相信你也理解了.我就不多說了.
這是我的個人意見.PS:這是初中的閱讀?好簡單.

Environmental pollution is a term that refers to all the ways by which man pollutes his surrounding. Man dirties the air with gasses and smoke, poisons the water with chemicals and other substances, and damages the soil with too many fertilizers and pesticides. Man also pollutes his surrounds in various other ways. For example, people ruin natural beauty by scattering junk and litter on the land and in the water. They operate machines and motor vehicles that fill the air with disturbing noise. Nearly everyone causes pollution in some way.
Environmental pollution is one of the most serious problems facing mankind today. Badly polluted air can cause illness, and even death. Polluted water kills fish and other marine life. Pollution of soil reces the amount of land available for growing food. Environmental pollution also brings ugliness to man's naturally beautiful world.
Water pollution reces the amount of pure, fresh water that is available for such necessities as drinking and cleaning, and for such activities as swimming and fishing. The pollutants that affect water come mainly from instries, farm, and sewerage systems. Instries mp millions of tons of waste procts into bodies of water each year. These wastes include chemicals, wastes from animal and plant matter, and hundreds of other substances. Wastes from farms include animal wastes, fertilizers, and pesticides. Most of these materials drain off farm fields and into nearby bodies of water. Sewerage systems carry wastes from homes, offices, and instries into water.
People, however, may differ in what they consider to be a pollutant, on the basis of their assessment of benefits and risks to their health and economic well-being. For example, visible and invisible chemicals spewed into the air or water from a plant nearby pose a danger to the people nearby and other animals and plants. However, if the installation of expensive pollution controls leads to the rection of proctivity, the unemployed might feel that the risks from polluted air and water are minor weighed against the benefits of profitable employment. The same level of pollution can also affect two people quite differently --- some forms of air pollution might be a slight annoyance to a health person but life threatening to someone with emphysema or another respiratory disorder.
環境污染是指人們用各種方式污染周圍環境的一個術語。人們通過氣體和煙霧來污染空氣，用化學物質以及其他物質污染水源，還用大量的化肥和殺蟲劑破壞土壤。人們還通過其他的方式污染著他們的環境。例如，總有人在地面上和水裡扔垃圾，破壞自然美。 人們使用的一些及其和交通工具噪音很大。 可以說，幾乎每個人都在某種程度上對周圍環境造成了污染。
境污染是當今人們所面對的一個非常嚴重的問題。被嚴重污染的空氣將引起各種疾病，甚至死亡。 被污染的水源會引起魚類以及其他海洋生物的死亡，被污染的土壤會減少種植農作物的面積。同時。環境污染使得人們周圍美麗的自然環境日益變得醜陋。
水污染使得我們用來飲用和清洗的純凈新鮮的水資源不斷減少，用於游泳、垂釣的水源也在減少。水的污染源主要來自工業、農場以及排水系統。工業廢物每年數以千萬噸計地被傾倒水中，這些廢物包括化學原料，來自動植物的廢物，以及上百種其他的廢物。農場廢物包括動植物排泄，化肥和殺蟲劑。其中大部分物體都從田地里排出流入附近的水中。排水系統將來自每家每戶，辦公室和工業中的廢水排到水中。
基於環境污染對人類健康和生活所帶來的利弊的不同估計，人們對同一污染源持有不同的看法。例如，有形和無形的化學原料從附近的工廠排放到空氣或水中，這對於附近的人們和其他的生物構成危害。但是，如果該工廠裝備昂貴的控制污染的設備，導致生產成本提高，因此而失業的工人也許會覺得廢氣廢水所造成的危險與具有豐厚利潤的工作相比真是微乎其微。同種程度的污染對不同的人影響也不同。比如說，一些空氣污染對於一個健康的人來說只是小煩惱，而對患有肺氣腫或呼吸道疾病的人來說卻是生死攸關的。

導語：今年北京春天長久的霧霾天氣致使人們越來越關注環境問題、空氣質量問題。更多的人意識到環境問題刻不容緩。下面是一篇關於北京霧霾天氣的環保英語閱讀，幫助大家學習英語。
Hundreds of planes were grounded in Beijing on Monday and several freeways temporarily closed because of heavy smog and poor weather conditions, underscoring the growing cost of Beijing』s chronic air pollution.
周一，由於濃重的霧霾和糟糕的天氣條件，數百架飛機滯留北京，多條高速公路臨時關閉，凸顯出北京長期空氣污染所造成的成本日益升高。
By Monday evening, nearly 500 flights out of Beijing had been cancelled or delayed e to weather, according to the Beijing International Airport. Monday』s weather in Beijing was cloudy with a light snow and pollution readings described as 「hazardous」 by the US embassy』s pollution monitoring system.
據北京首都國際機場(Beijing International Airport)稱，至周一晚間，有近500個離京航班由於天氣原因而取消或延遲。北京周一的天氣為多雲見小雪，美國大使館的污染監測系統顯示的污染級別為「危險」。
Pollution has been a growing concern for China, which is home to 21 of the world』s 100 most polluted cities, as environmental degradation inflicts an ever higher economic and social cost. This year has been marked by a series of protests over pollution concerns, the largest of which in Dalian attracted more than 10,000 people.
隨著環境退化造成的經濟和社會成本日益上升，污染已經成為越來越受中國關注的問題。全球污染最嚴重的100個城市中，21個在中國。尤其在今年，針對污染問題，發生了一系列的抗議，其中規模最大的大連抗議吸引了1萬多人參加。
Smog is not uncommon in Beijing, however residents have grown increasingly vocal about air pollution in recent months because of a yawning discrepancy between Beijing』s official pollution data and the air pollution data published by the US embassy.
霧霾在北京並不罕見，但在最近幾個月，由於北京官方污染數據與美國大使館公布的空氣污染數據存在驚人的差異，居民對空氣污染發出了越來越強烈的質疑。
On Sunday, when heavy, acrid smog descended on Beijing, the municipal government described it as 「light pollution,」 although the US embassy』s data said it was off the charts. One reason for the difference is that Beijing monitors larger PM10 particles, while the US embassy monitors the small PM2.5 particles that are considered more dangerous to human health.
周日，北京突然籠罩在濃重、刺鼻的霧霾當中，市政府稱之為「輕度污染」，盡管美國大使館的數據表明污染指數已經「破表」。差異的一個原因是，北京方面監測的是較大的PM10顆粒(即粒徑在10微米以下的顆粒物——譯者注)，而美國大使館監測的是更小的、被認為對人體健康更加有害的PM2.5顆粒。
Environmentalist Ma Jun says that the public has become increasingly sceptical of the official data.
環境保護主義者馬軍表示，公眾對官方數據越來越持懷疑態度。
The health costs of China』s air pollution are also high. A 2007 study by the World Bank found that in China 350,000 people die prematurely each year from exposure to outdoor air pollution, with a further 300,000 premature deaths caused by indoor air pollution.
中國空氣污染的健康成本也非常高。世界銀行(World Bank) 2007年的一項研究發現，在中國，每年有35萬人由於室外空氣污染早亡，還有30萬人由於室內空氣污染早亡。
As China』s environmental problems mount, China』s leaders have described pollution as a 「threat to growth,」 but graal policy changes have yet to have a visible impact on reversing pollution trends.
隨著中國環境問題的加劇，中國領導人已經稱污染為一種「對增長的威脅」，但逐步的政策變化對扭轉污染趨勢尚未起到可見的作用。
China is in the process of revising air pollution monitoring guidelines and, e to increasing public pressure, announced last month that the new rules would require cities to monitor PM 2.5, the smaller, more dangerous particles.
中國正在修改空氣污染監測指引，並且，由於公眾壓力日益加大，中國在上個月宣布，新規則將要求各城市監測更小、更有害的PM2.5顆粒。
In another nod to the public outcry, Beijing recently opened its air pollution monitoring centre for public visits, albeit only once a week.
在公眾的質疑聲中，北京方面還做出了另一項舉動：最近向公眾開放了空氣污染監測中心，接受參觀，但每周僅開放一次。
G. 英語閱讀短文環保行動翻譯
As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can't see fish swimming in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink. So I think we must do something to protect the environment. But what can we do? How to protect our environment? For example, we can go to school on foot or by bike instead of taking a car. We had better use shopping basketbets instead of plastic bags when we go shopping. We should use both sides of the paper when we write. Do't use paper cups. At our school dinning room, use our own bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones. We can reuse the water and save the electricity.In a word, if everyone pays more attention to our environment, there will be less pollution and our life will be better.
"There is only one earth", I hope everyone will protect our environment well.
周所周知，我們周圍的環境變得越來越糟糕。有些地方我們看不到水了魚兒在游泳， 山上不再有樹。一些人甚至於沒有干凈的飲用水。因此我們必須做些事情來保護環境。我們能做什麼呢？如何保護環境？例如，我們可以走著或騎車去上學，而不乘車。我們賣東西最好使用購物藍而不用塑料袋。我們寫字時要兩面的紙張都用。不用紙杯子。在學校食堂，不用一次性筷子，要用自己的碗和筷子。我們再次用水，節約電。總之，如果人人都注意環境，污染會更少，我們的生活會更好。「只有一個地球」，我希望人人都能很好地保護環境。

中新網10月20日電 據中國政府網消息，國務院下發《關於加強環境保護重點工作的意見》，就加強環境保護重點工作提出16條意見。《意見》指出，將實施有利於環境保護的經濟政策，積極推進環境稅費改革，研究開征環境保護稅。
《意見》指出，繼續開展整治違法排污企業保障群眾健康環保專項行動，對環境法律法規執行和環境問題整改情況進行後督察。對未完成環保目標任務或發生重特大突發環境事件負有責任的地方政府領導進行約談，落實整改措施。
意見全文如下：
國務院關於加強環境保護重點工作的意見
各省、自治區、直轄市人民政府，國務院各部委、各直屬機構：
多年來，我國積極實施可持續發展戰略，將環境保護放在重要的戰略位置，不斷加大解決環境問題的力度，取得了明顯成效。但由於產業結構和布局仍不盡合理，污染防治水平仍然較低，環境監管制度尚不完善等原因，環境保護形勢依然十分嚴峻。為深入貫徹落實科學發展觀，加快推動經濟發展方式轉變，提高生態文明建設水平，現就加強環境保護重點工作提出如下意見：
一、全面提高環境保護監督管理水平
(一)嚴格執行環境影響評價制度。凡依法應當進行環境影響評價的重點流域、區域開發和行業發展規劃以及建設項目，必須嚴格履行環境影響評價程序，並把主要污染物排放總量控制指標作為新改擴建項目環境影響評價審批的前置條件。環境影響評價過程要公開透明，充分徵求社會公眾意見。建立健全規劃環境影響評價和建設項目環境影響評價的聯動機制。對環境影響評價文件未經批准即擅自開工建設、建設過程中擅自作出重大變更、未經環境保護驗收即擅自投產等違法行為，要依法追究管理部門、相關企業和人員的責任。
(二)繼續加強主要污染物總量減排。完善減排統計、監測和考核體系，鼓勵各地區實施特徵污染物排放總量控制。對造紙、印染和化工行業實行化學需氧量和氨氮排放總量控制。加強污水處理設施、污泥處理處置設施、污水再生利用設施和垃圾滲濾液處理設施建設。對現有污水處理廠進行升級改造。完善城鎮污水收集管網，推進雨、污分流改造。強化城鎮污水、垃圾處理設施運行監管。對電力行業實行二氧化硫和氮氧化物排放總量控制，繼續加強燃煤電廠脫硫，全面推行燃煤電廠脫硝，新建燃煤機組應同步建設脫硫脫硝設施。對鋼鐵行業實行二氧化硫排放總量控制，強化水泥、石化、煤化工等行業二氧化硫和氮氧化物治理。在大氣污染聯防聯控重點區域開展煤炭消費總量控制試點。開展機動車船尾氣氮氧化物治理。提高重點行業環境准入和排放標准。促進農業和農村污染減排，著力抓好規模化畜禽養殖污染防治。
(三)強化環境執法監管。抓緊推動制定和修訂相關法律法規，為環境保護提供更加完備、有效的法制保障。健全執法程序，規范執法行為，建立執法責任制。加強環境保護日常監管和執法檢查。繼續開展整治違法排污企業保障群眾健康環保專項行動，對環境法律法規執行和環境問題整改情況進行後督察。建立建設項目全過程環境監管制度以及農村和生態環境監察制度。完善跨行政區域環境執法合作機制和部門聯動執法機制。依法處置環境污染和生態破壞事件。執行流域、區域、行業限批和掛牌督辦等督查制度。對未完成環保目標任務或發生重特大突發環境事件負有責任的地方政府領導進行約談，落實整改措施。推行生產者責任延伸制度。深化企業環境監督員制度，實行資格化管理。建立健全環境保護舉報制度，廣泛實行信息公開，加強環境保護的社會監督。
(四)有效防範環境風險和妥善處置突發環境事件。完善以預防為主的環境風險管理制度，實行環境應急分級、動態和全過程管理，依法科學妥善處置突發環境事件。建設更加高效的環境風險管理和應急救援體系，提高環境應急監測處置能力。制定切實可行的環境應急預案，配備必要的應急救援物資和裝備，加強環境應急管理、技術支撐和處置救援隊伍建設，定期組織培訓和演練。開展重點流域、區域環境與健康調查研究。全力做好污染事件應急處置工作，及時准確發布信息，減少人民群眾生命財產損失和生態環境損害。健全責任追究制度，嚴格落實企業環境安全主體責任，強化地方政府環境安全監管責任。
二、著力解決影響科學發展和損害群眾健康的突出環境問題
(五)切實加強重金屬污染防治。對重點防控的重金屬污染地區、行業和企業進行集中治理。合理調整涉重金屬企業布局，嚴格落實衛生防護距離，堅決禁止在重點防控區域新改擴建增加重金屬污染物排放總量的項目。加強重金屬相關企業的環境監管，確保達標排放。對造成污染的重金屬污染企業，加大處罰力度，採取限期整治措施，仍然達不到要求的，依法關停取締。規范廢棄電器電子產品的回收處理活動，建設廢舊物品回收體系和集中加工處理園區。積極妥善處理重金屬污染歷史遺留問題。
