7、he beauty of the ocean.”和“I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side”可知，作者认为大海很美，自己很幸运能经常看到海，故画线句应是对半月湾的赞美。D项符合文意。故选D。2According to the second paragraph, Australian marine life _.Ais escaping from the Coral Sea graduallyBdepends on reefs for living greatlyCmay be faced with dangerDis protec

8、ted better than that in other oceans解析：选C推理判断题。根据第二段最后三句“When I learned that only 1 percent of Australias Coral Sea was protected . only 45% of the worlds reefs are considered healthy.”可推知，澳大利亚的海洋生命可能面临危险。故选C。3Angus and the author created a little video to _.Aurge more people to take action to prote

9、ct the marine speciesBinspire more people to explore the secret of the oceanCshare their childhood experiences about the oceanDbring back to people their memory of ocean species解析：选A细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be a part of the mo

Although Charles Darwin

11、 thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their cooperation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of und

12、erground fungi (真菌) networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Sima

13、rd talks about “mother trees”， usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no aware

14、ness of these highly complex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“We didnt take any notice of it，” Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them a chance.” If we

15、could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了树和树之间不是你死我活的竞争关系，而是相互依赖的互助关系。快要死的树会将自己的营养传给小树让它们更好地成长。如果人们知道这些现象，就可以更好地保护这些树。4What would be the best title for the passage?AOld Trees

16、Communicate Like HumansBYoung Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionCTrees Are More Complex Than You ThinkDTrees Contribute To Our Society解析：选C标题归纳题。根据第一段和第二段第一句并结合全文内容可知，文章介绍了树和树之间不是你死我活的竞争关系，而是相互依赖的互助关系。快要死的树会将自己的营养传给小树让它们更好地成长，所以树木比我们想象的更复杂。故答案选C。5We can learn from the passage that _.A“mother trees” are

17、 usually of no use to other treesBCharles Darwin had the same thought as SimardCpeople know much about the complex “tree societies”Dif “mother trees” are cut down, the survival for the entire forest will be affected解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段第三句“When humans cut down mother trees with no awareness of these high

18、ly complex tree societies or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.”可推断出，砍掉“母亲树”会影响整片森林的生存状况。故答案选D。6The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to _.Ahow trees grow oldBhow “tree societies” workChow forestry industry developsDhow you

19、ng trees survive解析：选B代词指代题。画线词出现在第五段段首，所以应该到上一段段末寻找it所指代的内容。上段最后一句指出，砍掉“母亲树”会影响整片森林的生存状况，由此可推断出，it指的是“树的社会”是如何运转的。故答案选B。CThere was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier：“Paper or plastic？” Well, which type of bag woul

20、d you choose?While all types of bags have some influence on the environment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. They are made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. However, the producing process behind paper bags uses

21、more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides, the influence on forests is very serious. It takes about fourtee

22、n million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling, the idea that paper bags are more environmentfriendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to rec

23、ycle plastic than it does paper.Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones, plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland, for example, a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags. People have to pay 22 cents fo

24、r every plastic bag, and as a result, their use has dropped quickly.Theres no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However, we dont seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so, cloth bags are a better choice, but still, their production also ha

25、s a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How should we answer the question of “Paper or plastic？” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I do to help the environment？”语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。购物时应该选用纸袋还是塑料袋，还是其他更加环保的方式呢？本文主要就不同的购物袋的利弊进行了讨论。7The questions i

26、n Paragraph 1 are used to _.Aexpress the authors doubtsBtell readers how to save moneyCintroduce points for discussionDshow the kindness of the cashier解析：选C推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，超市购物结束后，收银员会问你一个问题：要哪种购物袋？而第二段提到纸质购物袋的好处，接着提出质疑。由此可推知，第一段的问题是为了引出下文讨论的话题。故C项正确。8Compared with plastic bags, paper bags _.Aneed m

27、ore water to produceBrequire less energy to recycleCtake more time to break downDhave less influence on forests解析：选A细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher.”可知，与塑料袋相比，生产纸质袋所需要的水量更多。故A项正确。9The underlined word “discarded” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”Ashared

28、Bgiven upCdiscussedDput forward解析：选B词义猜测题。根据下文“Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.”可知，就回收利用而言，纸袋比塑料袋更加环保这种观念显然是错误的，应该予以抛弃。故画线词“discarded”应意为“抛弃，放弃”。given up意思与之更接近，符合语境。故B项正确。10Which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask?APaper or cloth?BPaper or plastic?CA small bag or big one?DA new bag or your own one?解析：选D推理判断题。根据最后两段内容可知，与纸袋相比，塑料袋依然被人们认为更有害，不管是选择纸袋还是塑料袋，危害都很大。因此毫无疑问，重新使用这些袋子更有意义。由此可知，作者很有可能希望收银员的问题是“用新袋子还是你自己的袋子”。故D项正确。
