17、 800 people to 8 million.But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time.Boomtowns grow from nothing almost overnight.In 1896,Dawson,Canada,was unmapped wilderness(荒野).Butgold was discovered there in 1897,and two years later,it was one of the largest cities in the West,with apopulation

18、of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris.People went there forgold.They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers.The path toDawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning.An a

20、 comfortable.Necessities like food and wood werevery expensive.But soon,the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found.The city was crowded withdisappointed people with no interest in setting down,and when they heard there were new gold discoveries inAlaska,they left Dawson City as quickly as t

25、ron and zinc(not that fruits have much protein).Blueberries areparticularly high in antioxidants(抗氧化物质).The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high inthe carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants.As for cherries(樱桃),they are so deliciouswho cares?However,they are

26、rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries of slices of other fruits,frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick,cooling fruit shakes and low fat“ice cream”.For this purpose,select ripe bananas for freezing as they are muchsweeter.Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers an

27、d freeze.If you like,a squeeze of freshlemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.Frozen bananas will last several weeks,depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer,you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit.Out come

31、 measure of influence our activities have on the environment,in particular climate change.It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives.Fortunately,nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than,lets say,20 years ago.Butone question has been o

32、n my mind a lot lately:is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionallyproduced goods?After doing some research,I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used.Letme try to explain.A carbon footprint is made up of two parts,the primary footprint and the s

33、econdary footprint.The primaryfootprint is a measure of our direct emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide(CO2)from the burning of fuels,including household energy consumption and transportation.The secondary footprint is a measure of theindirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use thos

34、e related to their production andbreakdown.Based on this understanding,we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint.Things like dishes,clothes and furniture fall into the“secondary footprint”group,so less is more and we canfocus on finding used goods to avoid the added

35、 production.However,for the car and the other appliances(设备)that we need we can go with new,energy-saving models.I heard somewhere that electronics andappliances give off 90%of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory.So it seems most reasonable to gofor the energy-saving models.The main

36、concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of newproducts and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.32.What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint?A.It is related to our consumption of fuels.B.It is made when we

37、 are buying the products.C.It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.D.It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.33.Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author?A.Using second-hand textbooks.B.Using old and expensive cars.C.Buying new but che

38、ap clothes.D.Buying new wooden furniture.34.The footprint underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in _.A.using the productB.recycling the productC.making the productD.transporting the product35.What is the text mainly about?A.What appliances to buy to save energy.第 4 页共 6 页B.What

39、a carbon footprint means in our life.C.How to identify different carbon footprints.D.How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。If you are already making the time to exercise,it is good indeed!With such busy lives,it can be har
