8、change is a continuing process，so Norhels ice reserves will not last forever.Warming will overtake them.But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will，perhaps，be able to find other means of adapting.Increasing Earths reflectiveness can cool the planet.In southern Spain the sudden incr

15、th timeCglobal warming affects adaptation forms Dadaptation to climate change is challenging【答案】 A 推理判断。onesize fit all 意为“通用的，万全之策”，句意：不存在通用的适应性方法。下句 Nevertheless 表转折，再根据“there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost”可知，没有放之四海而皆准的方法，即适应是需要根据情况不断做出调整，而非一成不变的。2What is special w
16、ith regard to Rezwans project?AThe project receives government support. BDifferent organizations work with each other.CHis organization makes the best of a bad situation.DThe project connects flooded roads and highways.【答案】 C 细节理解题。根据第四段“Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster

21、rol carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt，its a nonsense”可知，作者不赞成“我们已经在与碳污染的斗争中失败了”这样的说法，说明作者建议污染企业行动起来。6Whats the authors preferred solution to global warming?Asetting up a new standard. BReducing carbon emission.CAdapting to climate change.DMonitoring polluting industries.【答案】 B 推理判断题。根
22、据最后一段“But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution.”可知，作者认为，最合理的方法仍然是减少二氧化碳的排放。.阅读七选五321 GREEN!You already know an environmentalists three Rs：reduce， reuse，recycle._ 1_ Here are three things you can do for the Earth Day.Be a real cutupT

28、 things that can help with good living conditions.【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。你能为绿色环保生活做什么？文章告诉你的3 件事你一定能做到。1【答案】 E 注意前后两句中反复出现的 you，以及下文出现的WHAT YOU CAN DO。很明显，文章的中心思想是让“你”能够做到文章中提到的 3 点，因此答案为 E。本题容易错选 G，其在衔接前后两句时并不显得突兀，但其含义却有失偏颇，提到的仅仅是生活条件，与主题不符，故不选 C。2【答案】 C 对比下文中两个 WHAT YOU CAN DO 可知，设空处提出的是具体的解决办法。本题指怎样做才能避免像
29、海龟 Peanut 一样的悲剧，因此答案为 C。3【答案】 B 这里用 vampire 比喻那些被忽略的耗电设备，B 切题。4【答案】 A 这里缺一个标题，由后面的内容可知，节约用水是中心思想。美国电影 Matt Damon 通过自己的例子告诉大家不要浪费水，因此答案为A。5【答案】 F 本题干扰项较多，选择正确答案的方法是把握住中心思想。中心思想是节约用水，同时注意后一句中出现的 Just 一词，这里提示与设空处的语意有一定的转折关系，由此可以筛选出正确答案为 F。.语法填空(2018唐山二模 )St.Patricks Day is one of those _1_(wonder)days

34、ful 设空处后为名词，由此可判断设空处应为形容词。2【答案】 him 作 catch 的宾语应用 he 的宾格形式。3【答案】 were greeted 根据设空处后的 by 可推知主语 we 与 greet 为被动关系，故用被动语态；根据上下文可知设空处需用一般过去时，故答案为were greeted。4【答案】 whether 句意：孩子们中没有一个人对那个妖精是真是假感到怀疑。根据句末的 or not 可知设空处应为 whether(是否)。由于本宾语从句作的是介词的宾语，故不可用 if。5【答案】 hoping 主语 they 与 hope 为逻辑上的主动关系且表示伴随，故用 hop
35、ing。6【答案】 caught get caught in“被困在”，为固定短语。7【答案】 a card 为可数名词，在本句中表泛指，故用不定冠词 a。8【答案】 wishes wishes“祝愿，祝福”，专指写在书信或卡片中的祝愿。9【答案】 best 根据上下文及设空处前的 the 可推知本空需用形容词最高级。10【答案】 on 表示“脸上的微笑”需用介词 on。.短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有 10 处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号()，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多
