69、 more CO2 into the atmosphere.BTrees cant absorb the same CO2 as they did in the past.CBillions of trees are being cut down throughout the world.DThe greenhouse effect is extremely bad for the environment.解析：细节理解题。由文中第一段的“There is too much CO2 and there arent enough trees”可知，是因为树木越来越少，二氧化碳越来越多，所以才无法

70、像以前一样能吸收掉，而不是因为树木的吸收力不如以前了，B选项表述错误。故B选项正确。33Whats the main idea of the second paragraph？ D AThe reasons why we should plant more trees.BWays we can adopt to take heat from volcanoes.CMeasures to be taken to forbid the use of coal and oil.DThings we can do to stop or reduce the greenhouse effect.解析：主

72、d their family in return.解析：推理判断题。由文中倒数第二段的they plant many fruit trees.The fruit gives them vitamins for their families，diets可知，这些女性种植果树可以满足他们家庭的食物，这样有利于提高他们的生活水平。故D选项正确。35Whats the authors attitude towards the plan of planting trees in Guatemala？ C ACritical.BNeutral.CPositive.DDoubtful.解析：推理判断题。根据

73、文中倒数第二段的第一句“The trees are good for the earths atmosphere and for Guatemala(拉丁美洲国家危地马拉)”以及最后一段可知，作者对于在危地马拉种植树木的态度是积极、乐观的。故C选项正确。第二节(共5小题； 每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。In many societies the color white has been associated with purity and virtue, and that is one reason why s

79、 fact, other colors were chosen far more frequently than white.GThis was for reasons of being practical as much as anything else.文章大意：这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了新娘选择白色婚纱的原因。解析：36根据前文“ But, historically, white was not the only color considered for wedding dresses.”可知从历史上看，白色并不是婚纱的唯一颜色，因此设空句应对此进行进一步的解释或总结，应提及核心词“

80、color”，同时呼应前文的“not the only color”。选项F.In fact, other colors were chosen far more frequently than white.( 事实上，人们选择其他颜色的频率远远高于选择白色。)呼应了前文的白色不是唯一的选择，而且提及了其他颜色，符合语境分析。故选F项。37根据前文“For many centuries in Western societies, wedding dresses had different colors.”可知几个世纪以来，在西方社会，婚纱有不同的颜色，因此设空句应对此进行解释“为什么会有各种颜

81、色的婚纱”。选项G.This was for reasons of being practical as much as anything else.( 这既是出于实际考虑，也是出于其他考虑。)解释了原因，即实用性以及其他方面的因素。故选G项。38根据后文“They do so largely thanks to a trend that started with Queen Victorias 1840 wedding to Prince Albert(这在很大程度上要归功于1840年维多利亚女王与阿尔伯特亲王的婚礼)”解释了为什么“他们”会选择白色婚纱，因此设空句应是问句，问及关于选择白色

82、婚纱的问题。选项A.So why do so many of todays brides wear white？( 那么为什么现在这么多的新娘都穿白色呢？)为问句，且问及白色婚纱的选择，符合语境。故选 A项。39设空句为本段主旨句，根据后文“Although not in as many different media as we have now, they still had a tendency to be trendsetting.So Victoria chose to wear a white gownreportedly to show off the fine detailed

83、 Honiton lace produced by the British lace industry, which was depressed at the time.Her fashion choice was widely reported in newspapers and magazines.( 尽管没有我们现在拥有的那么多不同的媒体，他们仍然有引领潮流的趋势。因此，维多利亚选择了一件白色礼服据报道，这是为了炫耀由英国蕾丝工业生产的精细的霍尼顿花边，当时英国的蕾丝工业正处于萧条时期。她的时尚选择被报纸和杂志广泛报道。)”可知，通过媒体，维多利亚女王的婚纱受到了关注，因此本段主要讲述了
