12、ean drinking water is a major problem worldwide. The World Health Organization says more than one billion people live in areas where fresh water resources are not available.The problem is especially serious in Asia and the Pacific. A United Nations report says water availability in that area is the
13、second lowest in the world，after Africa.Nearly half a billion people in Asia and the Pacific dont have enough safe drinking water. The United Nations report notes that the worlds poor countries are also the ones that use the most water for agriculture. Agriculture uses about 80% of the water in the
14、AsiaPacific area. There has also been an increase in water used for industry. India used three times more industrial water between 1999 and 2009 than in the past.The shortage of clean drinking water around the world forces millions of people to drink unsafe water. This leads to an increase in diseas
15、es like diarrhea (腹泻)，the second leading cause of death in children. Floods，pollution and climate change have made the water crisis more serious.The Millennium Development Goals for 2015 plans a 50% decrease in the number of people without safe drinking water. Scientists，governments and aid organiza
16、tions around the world are increasing their efforts to meet these goals. Still the United Nations says there is much work to be done. During this World Water Day celebration it called on other organizations to work together to fight against the water crisis.The American researchers are designing a n
17、ew technology for turning sea water into drinking water. The process uses electricity to help bring salt out from sea water to make it drinkable.The technology removed 99% of the salt and other harmful materials from sea water.So far the method has purified only small amounts of water.But the resear

22、 ways to reduce the water wasteDthe water crisis humans meet withBSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It
23、is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that“ reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to
24、create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of print
25、ed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable ,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest（探索）for knowledge? Smith has one princ
26、ipal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. ”When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of
27、 the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.31. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is
28、that _.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading32. The teaching of reading will be successful if _.A. teachers can improve conditions at school for
29、the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable33The underlined word“ scrutiny” most probably means“_”.A. inquiry B. observationC. control D. suspicion
30、34According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when _.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches childrens experience35The main idea of the passage is th
31、at _.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated that generally believedCMillions of people die of hunger in s
32、outhern Africa every year, but when Zambia was offered thousands of tons of free maize（玉米） by the US, the government politely paid no. “We dont know whether the food is safe,” said Zambias commerce, Trade and Industry Minister Dipak Patel. His worries are shared by countries around the world that ar
33、e in two minds about Americas genetically modified（GM,转基因的）cropsJust last week, EU（欧盟）member nations were discussing whether or not to import GM sweet corn from the US Ever since people started farming, they have tried to crossbreed（杂交）plants to make them stronger or better tasting. At one time, onl
34、y related plants could be crossed with each other But when GM techniques were developed in the 1970s, scientists were able to put a single gene from a living creature into an unrelated creature. This means they can make crops more productive and resistant to disease by adding genes from other specie
35、sThey can also create food with special characteristics, such as “golden rice”, which is enriched with vitamin A. But many people believe GM foods are a health risk. At the moment, the official argument is that GM foods “are not likely to present risks for human health”. But there are still many que
36、stions to be answered as the foods are produced in different ways. Some experts believe the genetic material added to plants can transfer to humans and give damage to our bodies. Further harm could be caused by the genes from GM plants crossbreeding with naturally produced cropsPeople in China are a
37、lso getting worried about GM foods. More than 70 percent of the countrys soybean oil is produced from imported GM soybeans. Meanwhile, an investigation last November found that 12 of 60 famous foods sold across the country were GM products. The government has begun to introduce a marking system for
38、GM goods so that people can choose whether or not to eat them. 36. Which is the best title for the passage ? A. GM foods in China B. Advantages of GM foods C. the techniques of GM foods D. GM foods, a health risk?37. Why has Zambia refused the American free maize? A. they worry about the safety of G
39、M foodsB. they decide to follow EU members advice C. Their problem of starvation is not serious D. they are too proud to accept free offer38. It has been proved that _. A. GM techniques can increase the production of crops B. GM food is better than naturally produced foods C. only related plans coul
40、d be crossed with each other D. GM foods are harmful to peoples health 39. Which of the following statement is TRUE? A. There is no GM foods in China. B. Some experts believe human bodies can absorb genetic material from GM foods. C. Chinas government doesnt do anything about GM foods. D. Only Zambi
41、a worries about the safety of GM foods.40. Whats the authors attitude towards GM foods? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Neutral. D. Critical.D Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitant of a count
42、ry. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects tou
43、rists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants. Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer. On the other h
44、and, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Business can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels , airports, air terminals ,first-class roads ,and other support facilities(设施) needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism
45、 hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money. Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity ,sewers (阴沟) to handle waste
46、,and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.41. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage? A. It is extremely important to develop tourism B. Bu
47、ilding roads and hotel is essentialC. Support facilities are highly necessaryD. Planning is of great importance to tourism42. Too many tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT _.A. a bad impact on other industries B. a change of tourists customsC. over crowdedness of interest D. pressure in traff
48、ic43. Not enough tourism can lead to _.A. an increase of unemployment B. a decrease in tourist attractionsC. the higher cost of support facilities D. a rise in price and a fall in pay44. It is good for local people to be well aware that tourism will _.A. use up a large amount of water B. weaken thei
49、r economyC. help establish their traditions D. help improve their life45. The word “ handle” in the last paragraph most probably means _ A. carry away B. pick up C. get in D. take down 第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）首先请阅读下列各类大学的基本信息：A.

68、于贫困，去找算命先生自然是询问如何致富。2A四个选项中只有A项anxiously可以表示他迫不及待的心情。3D根据下文“You use them to see this world.”可知应为eyes。4B算命先生言外之意是让年轻人珍惜自己拥有的健康，故应是用一种感恩知足的眼光看世界，看到的东西都是“美好的”。5A根据后面的“You can go to any places.”可知应为legs。6D根据后面的“I am willing to give you.”及willing的用法可知选D项。7Ccharge和change意思不符；buy后不跟for, 所以用exchange。exchang
69、e for交换。8A根据前面的一句“I am not going to exchange my eyes for money！”可知年轻人不愿意交换，可以推断眼睛对他来说是重要的、宝贵的。所以选A。9D从年轻人说话的语气推断他应该很生气，所以冲着算卦先生大声嚷道。yelled符合文中的情形。10B根据上文，很多人和年轻人一样不能“意识到”并珍惜这些财富。11A对上苍赐给我们的财富我们应该心怀感激。grateful感激的，符合文意。12D算命先生问年轻人是否要“失去”后才懂得珍惜。13Atake.for granted把想当然，是固定搭配。14B根据上文“We need to treasure
70、our wealth, take care of them.”推断应选B项。15C联系下一句“.they are gone forever.”可知应选gone。此处gone是形容词，意为“离开的；用光的；死去的”。 .语法填空【答案】16.inlive in意为“居住”，live in的宾语为a small old house。17wearing逻辑主语Hugh与wear之间为主动关系，故用现在分词wearing，在句中作伴随状语。18was amazed句意：当Hugh穿着一套新的品牌西装出现在村庄广场时，每个人都很惊讶。amazed指人感到惊讶，且文章的时态为过去时，故填was amaze
71、d。19have stolen此处指人们认为他一定是从哪儿偷了这套衣服，对过去发生事情的肯定的推测用must have done，故填have stolen。20that/which_everyone was wondering about为定语从句，修饰先行词the fine new house，画线部分在从句中充当宾语，故填that或which。21his句意：并且他补充说山坡上正在建造的那座每个人都想知道的很好的新房子就是他的。根据句意可知应填his，指代his house。22When/After_questioned where he got the money为过去分词短语作时间状
72、语，故填when或after。23With“with宾语宾语补足语”是复合结构，在句中作状语。24simplysave为动词，应该用副词修饰，故填simply，意为“仅仅，只是”。25those句意：他微笑着，然后把数百美元散发给那些曾经对他友善的人们。由此可知，应填those。26-30 BCADD 31-35 DBBAC26【解析】细节理解题。由第一段“A United Nations report says water availability in that area is the second lowest in the world，after Africa.”可知，亚太平洋地区的淡
73、水可利用率是世界第二低，仅次于非洲，由此可知答案。【答案】B27【解析】细节理解题。由第二段“The United Nations report notes that the worlds poor countries are also the ones that use the most water for agriculture.”可知，贫穷国家的大部分淡水都用在农田灌溉上。【答案】C28.29【解析】细节理解题。由最后一段内容可知，这种技术的提纯过程会消耗电量；这种技术不能把海水中全部的盐提取出来；目前还没有利用这种技术从海水中提取出大量的可饮用的水；这种技术也没有被广泛应用，故可知正确
74、答案。【答案】D30【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要向我们介绍了世界范围内人类所面临的水危机问题。【答案】D 全解全析 本文是一篇议论文，在对传统的阅读教学方式进行批判的同时，论述了作者自己阅读的教学观：阅读的教与学是两个完全不同的过程。教学的任务是为学生能够找出自己最有效的自学阅读的方法创造条件和氛围。学生的阅读能力并不是通过教师教就能掌握的；教师应做的是给学生创造一个好的环境和条件，激发学生阅读的渴望，培养出良好的阅读习惯、方法。只有这样，学生才能掌握阅读技能，提高阅读水平。31D。推理判断题。依据文章第一自然段第3行“It is certainly not endless ho
75、urs spent in activities about reading.”（教学生如何阅读当然不是带着学生花费大量的时间去一点一点地读）。可以看出，作者认为现在教阅读的时间太多了，这当然是因为教而不教法。所以选项D正确。32B。细节理解题。依据文章第二自然段第2行开始的句子：“The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching t
76、hemselvesto read”（教学的任务是为学生能够找出自己最有效的自学阅读的方法创造条件和氛围），B项符合上述意思，为正确答案。33B。意义猜测题。该题为猜测词义。inquiry“询问”。observation“观察”。control“控制”。suspicion“怀疑”。该词出现在第三自然段最后一句“process is not open to public scrutiny”，考生可从该句的上文作出推测。最明显的提示出现在第二自然段最后一句“Teaching is also a public activity；it can be seen and observed”所以，scruti
77、ny最可能的词义应该是observation，故B项正确。34A。细节理解题。依据文章第四自然段、第五自然段所提供的信息，特别是第5段第3行“Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading”（当教师们创造了一种环境，使孩子们有机会自己通过阅读解决所遇到的问题时，学习阅读就变得容易多了），可以看出A项与之最为相近。35C。主旨
78、大意题。依据文章第一自然段第4行“reading cannot be taught directly and”说明学生的阅读能力并不是通过教师教就能掌握的。教师应做的是给学生创造一个好的环境和条件，激发学生阅读的渴望，培养出良好的阅读习惯、方法。只有这样，学生才能掌握阅读技能，提高阅读水平。所以选项C正确。其他选项与文章讨论的范围不符。36-40: DAABC 41-45 DBADA信息匹配4650 D AB F E汕尾市林伟华中学2014届高三第二次月考1-5CADBA 6-10 DCADB 11-15ADABC16in 17 wearing 18.was amazed 19have sto
