A. 求一篇关于环境保护的高一英语阅读理解
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(摩托车) 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(茎) 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
【答案与解析】文章主要讲的是人们正采取措施控制和治理沙漠。
1. C。词汇猜测题。从instead of leaves可知needles是沙漠中植物的叶子，众所周知沙漠中植物的叶子是针状的, 再看steel(钢) 、) branches(树枝) 、stick(棒) 都不是与叶对应的物体, 只有C项(长在植物茎上的尖的小物体)是“是针状叶”的意思，故答案选C。
2. B。细节题。从many of the plants even have hard needles instead of leaves可知B项错误。
3. A。细节题。从Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth(认为可能造成沙漠，但人类也可以防止沙漠的增长)可知答案A正确。
4. D。推断题。根据常识非洲沙漠远近闻名, 这说明那里最需要治理, 作者举例也会举典型的, 增加文章的可信度，故答案选D。
B. 英语阅读理解题
一,C. 二,C 三,A.
四选C.A不用我说了.关于B.文中是这么说的:"如果仅仅是买一点东西的话,请不要带袋子内."B选项的意思容是:"如果你要买一些东西你就需要在购物的时候带上袋子." 文中的原句是成立的,B的意思是基于原文的一种推测假设.这假设成立吗?未必.文中没有明确地告诉我们当要买一些东西的时候,就必须带袋子.这是一种"无中生有".而C,在第二句就可以找得到佐证.即便你用了$200,000美金来买bottled water,依然有10美分是用来充当包装费."Ten cents of every shopping dollar is used to pay for packing."
五选A.假如你这篇文章是整篇的话,选这个应该不错.因为文章把Save money和environment联系得很紧.B,C都是片面的总结.文章步步为营的阐述了如何既省钱,又环保.相信你也理解了.我就不多说了.
这是我的个人意见.PS:这是初中的阅读?好简单.

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.
环境污染是指人们用各种方式污染周围环境的一个术语。人们通过气体和烟雾来污染空气，用化学物质以及其他物质污染水源，还用大量的化肥和杀虫剂破坏土壤。人们还通过其他的方式污染着他们的环境。例如，总有人在地面上和水里扔垃圾，破坏自然美。 人们使用的一些及其和交通工具噪音很大。 可以说，几乎每个人都在某种程度上对周围环境造成了污染。
境污染是当今人们所面对的一个非常严重的问题。被严重污染的空气将引起各种疾病，甚至死亡。 被污染的水源会引起鱼类以及其他海洋生物的死亡，被污染的土壤会减少种植农作物的面积。同时。环境污染使得人们周围美丽的自然环境日益变得丑陋。
水污染使得我们用来饮用和清洗的纯净新鲜的水资源不断减少，用于游泳、垂钓的水源也在减少。水的污染源主要来自工业、农场以及排水系统。工业废物每年数以千万吨计地被倾倒水中，这些废物包括化学原料，来自动植物的废物，以及上百种其他的废物。农场废物包括动植物排泄，化肥和杀虫剂。其中大部分物体都从田地里排出流入附近的水中。排水系统将来自每家每户，办公室和工业中的废水排到水中。
基于环境污染对人类健康和生活所带来的利弊的不同估计，人们对同一污染源持有不同的看法。例如，有形和无形的化学原料从附近的工厂排放到空气或水中，这对于附近的人们和其他的生物构成危害。但是，如果该工厂装备昂贵的控制污染的设备，导致生产成本提高，因此而失业的工人也许会觉得废气废水所造成的危险与具有丰厚利润的工作相比真是微乎其微。同种程度的污染对不同的人影响也不同。比如说，一些空气污染对于一个健康的人来说只是小烦恼，而对患有肺气肿或呼吸道疾病的人来说却是生死攸关的。

导语：今年北京春天长久的雾霾天气致使人们越来越关注环境问题、空气质量问题。更多的人意识到环境问题刻不容缓。下面是一篇关于北京雾霾天气的环保英语阅读，帮助大家学习英语。
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，由于浓重的雾霾和糟糕的天气条件，数百架飞机滞留北京，多条高速公路临时关闭，凸显出北京长期空气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.
据北京首都国际机场(Beijing International Airport)称，至周一晚间，有近500个离京航班由于天气原因而取消或延迟。北京周一的天气为多云见小雪，美国大使馆的污染监测系统显示的污染级别为“危险”。
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.
随着环境退化造成的经济和社会成本日益上升，污染已经成为越来越受中国关注的问题。全球污染最严重的100个城市中，21个在中国。尤其在今年，针对污染问题，发生了一系列的抗议，其中规模最大的大连抗议吸引了1万多人参加。
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.
雾霾在北京并不罕见，但在最近几个月，由于北京官方污染数据与美国大使馆公布的空气污染数据存在惊人的差异，居民对空气污染发出了越来越强烈的质疑。
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，北京突然笼罩在浓重、刺鼻的雾霾当中，市政府称之为“轻度污染”，尽管美国大使馆的数据表明污染指数已经“破表”。差异的一个原因是，北京方面监测的是较大的PM10颗粒(即粒径在10微米以下的颗粒物——译者注)，而美国大使馆监测的是更小的、被认为对人体健康更加有害的PM2.5颗粒。
Environmentalist Ma Jun says that the public has become increasingly sceptical of the official data.
环境保护主义者马军表示，公众对官方数据越来越持怀疑态度。
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.
中国空气污染的健康成本也非常高。世界银行(World Bank) 2007年的一项研究发现，在中国，每年有35万人由于室外空气污染早亡，还有30万人由于室内空气污染早亡。
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.
随着中国环境问题的加剧，中国领导人已经称污染为一种“对增长的威胁”，但逐步的政策变化对扭转污染趋势尚未起到可见的作用。
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.
中国正在修改空气污染监测指引，并且，由于公众压力日益加大，中国在上个月宣布，新规则将要求各城市监测更小、更有害的PM2.5颗粒。
In another nod to the public outcry, Beijing recently opened its air pollution monitoring centre for public visits, albeit only once a week.
在公众的质疑声中，北京方面还做出了另一项举动：最近向公众开放了空气污染监测中心，接受参观，但每周仅开放一次。
G. 英语阅读短文环保行动翻译
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，我们周围的环境变得越来越糟糕。有些地方我们看不到水了鱼儿在游泳， 山上不再有树。一些人甚至于没有干净的饮用水。因此我们必须做些事情来保护环境。我们能做什么呢？如何保护环境？例如，我们可以走着或骑车去上学，而不乘车。我们卖东西最好使用购物蓝而不用塑料袋。我们写字时要两面的纸张都用。不用纸杯子。在学校食堂，不用一次性筷子，要用自己的碗和筷子。我们再次用水，节约电。总之，如果人人都注意环境，污染会更少，我们的生活会更好。“只有一个地球”，我希望人人都能很好地保护环境。
H. 环保税的英语短文练习
中新网10月20日电 据中国政府网消息，国务院下发《关于加强环境保护重点工作的意见》，就加强环境保护重点工作提出16条意见。《意见》指出，将实施有利于环境保护的经济政策，积极推进环境税费改革，研究开征环境保护税。
《意见》指出，继续开展整治违法排污企业保障群众健康环保专项行动，对环境法律法规执行和环境问题整改情况进行后督察。对未完成环保目标任务或发生重特大突发环境事件负有责任的地方政府领导进行约谈，落实整改措施。
意见全文如下：
国务院关于加强环境保护重点工作的意见
各省、自治区、直辖市人民政府，国务院各部委、各直属机构：
多年来，我国积极实施可持续发展战略，将环境保护放在重要的战略位置，不断加大解决环境问题的力度，取得了明显成效。但由于产业结构和布局仍不尽合理，污染防治水平仍然较低，环境监管制度尚不完善等原因，环境保护形势依然十分严峻。为深入贯彻落实科学发展观，加快推动经济发展方式转变，提高生态文明建设水平，现就加强环境保护重点工作提出如下意见：
一、全面提高环境保护监督管理水平
(一)严格执行环境影响评价制度。凡依法应当进行环境影响评价的重点流域、区域开发和行业发展规划以及建设项目，必须严格履行环境影响评价程序，并把主要污染物排放总量控制指标作为新改扩建项目环境影响评价审批的前置条件。环境影响评价过程要公开透明，充分征求社会公众意见。建立健全规划环境影响评价和建设项目环境影响评价的联动机制。对环境影响评价文件未经批准即擅自开工建设、建设过程中擅自作出重大变更、未经环境保护验收即擅自投产等违法行为，要依法追究管理部门、相关企业和人员的责任。
(二)继续加强主要污染物总量减排。完善减排统计、监测和考核体系，鼓励各地区实施特征污染物排放总量控制。对造纸、印染和化工行业实行化学需氧量和氨氮排放总量控制。加强污水处理设施、污泥处理处置设施、污水再生利用设施和垃圾渗滤液处理设施建设。对现有污水处理厂进行升级改造。完善城镇污水收集管网，推进雨、污分流改造。强化城镇污水、垃圾处理设施运行监管。对电力行业实行二氧化硫和氮氧化物排放总量控制，继续加强燃煤电厂脱硫，全面推行燃煤电厂脱硝，新建燃煤机组应同步建设脱硫脱硝设施。对钢铁行业实行二氧化硫排放总量控制，强化水泥、石化、煤化工等行业二氧化硫和氮氧化物治理。在大气污染联防联控重点区域开展煤炭消费总量控制试点。开展机动车船尾气氮氧化物治理。提高重点行业环境准入和排放标准。促进农业和农村污染减排，着力抓好规模化畜禽养殖污染防治。
(三)强化环境执法监管。抓紧推动制定和修订相关法律法规，为环境保护提供更加完备、有效的法制保障。健全执法程序，规范执法行为，建立执法责任制。加强环境保护日常监管和执法检查。继续开展整治违法排污企业保障群众健康环保专项行动，对环境法律法规执行和环境问题整改情况进行后督察。建立建设项目全过程环境监管制度以及农村和生态环境监察制度。完善跨行政区域环境执法合作机制和部门联动执法机制。依法处置环境污染和生态破坏事件。执行流域、区域、行业限批和挂牌督办等督查制度。对未完成环保目标任务或发生重特大突发环境事件负有责任的地方政府领导进行约谈，落实整改措施。推行生产者责任延伸制度。深化企业环境监督员制度，实行资格化管理。建立健全环境保护举报制度，广泛实行信息公开，加强环境保护的社会监督。
(四)有效防范环境风险和妥善处置突发环境事件。完善以预防为主的环境风险管理制度，实行环境应急分级、动态和全过程管理，依法科学妥善处置突发环境事件。建设更加高效的环境风险管理和应急救援体系，提高环境应急监测处置能力。制定切实可行的环境应急预案，配备必要的应急救援物资和装备，加强环境应急管理、技术支撑和处置救援队伍建设，定期组织培训和演练。开展重点流域、区域环境与健康调查研究。全力做好污染事件应急处置工作，及时准确发布信息，减少人民群众生命财产损失和生态环境损害。健全责任追究制度，严格落实企业环境安全主体责任，强化地方政府环境安全监管责任。
二、着力解决影响科学发展和损害群众健康的突出环境问题
(五)切实加强重金属污染防治。对重点防控的重金属污染地区、行业和企业进行集中治理。合理调整涉重金属企业布局，严格落实卫生防护距离，坚决禁止在重点防控区域新改扩建增加重金属污染物排放总量的项目。加强重金属相关企业的环境监管，确保达标排放。对造成污染的重金属污染企业，加大处罚力度，采取限期整治措施，仍然达不到要求的，依法关停取缔。规范废弃电器电子产品的回收处理活动，建设废旧物品回收体系和集中加工处理园区。积极妥善处理重金属污染历史遗留问题。
