During the last five years,a large
29、number of clothing companies,businesses and environmental organizations have started turning plastics into fabric to deal with plastic pollution.But theres a problem with this method.

30、ra,California,has been studying plastic pollution and microfibers for 10 years now. He explains that every time synthetic (合成的)clothes go into a washing machine,a large number of plastic fibers fall off. Most washing machines cant collect these microfibers. So every time the water gets out of a wash
31、ing machine,microfibers are entering the sewers and finally end up in the sea.In 2011,Browne wrote a paper stating that a single piece of synthetic clothing can produce more than 1,900 fibers per wash. Browne collected samples from seawater and freshwater sites around the world,and used a special wa
32、y to examine each sample.He discovered that every single water sample contained microfibers.This is bad news for a number of reasons. Plastic can cause harm to sea life when eaten. Studies have also shown that plastic can absorb other pollutants.Based on this evidence,it may seem surprising that com
33、panies and organizations have chosen to turn plastic waste into clothing as an environmental“solution”Even though the science has been around for a while,Browne explains that hes had a difficult time getting companies to listen. When he asked wellknown clothing companies to support Benign by Designh
34、is research project that seeks to get clothes that have a bad effect on humans and the environment out of the market,Browne didnt get a satisfying answer. Only one womens clothing company,Eileen Fisher,offered Browne funding.【语篇解读】在过去的五年里,大量的服装公司、企业和环保组织已经开始将塑料变成织物来处理塑料污染。但是这种方法有一个问题:现在的研究表明,微纤维可能是海
35、洋中塑料的最大来源。来自加州圣巴巴拉的马克布朗博士的研究也证实了这一点。12What has happened during the past five years?AFabric has become much stronger.BPlastic pollution has been less serious.CMany plastic bottles have been reused.DMicrofibers have been greatly improved.C推理判断题。由第一段中的“ During the last five years,a large number of clot
36、hing companies,businesses and environmental organizations have started turning plastics into fabric to deal with plastic pollution”可知,在过去的五年里,许多服装公司、企业和环境组织已经开始将塑料转变成织物来处理塑料污染。所以判断出在过去的五年里许多塑料瓶已被重新利用。故C选项正确。13What does Browne think of washing synthetic clothes?AIt is adding microfibers to the clothe
37、s.BIt is worsening environmental problems.CIt is making synthetic clothes last longer.DIt is doing great damage to washing machines.B推理判断题。由第二段中的“He explains that every time synthetic clothes go into a washing machine,a large number of plastic fibers fall off. Most washing machines cant collect thes
38、e microfibers. So every time the water gets out of a washing machine,microfibers are entering the sewers and finally end up in the sea.”可知,布朗解释说,每次合成纤维衣服放入洗衣机,都会有大量塑料纤维脱落。大多数洗衣机无法收集这些微纤维。因此,每当水从洗衣机中流出时,微纤维就会进入下水道,最终流入大海。所以通过布朗的解释可以判断出布朗认为洗合成纤维衣服正在使环境恶化。故B选项正确。14What can be inferred about Brownes Ben
39、ign by Design research project?AIt has achieved great success.BIt hasnt got anything done.CIt is known to very few people.DIt is facing some difficulties.D推理判断题。由最后一段中的“When he asked wellknown clothing companies to support Benign by Design,.Browne didnt get a satisfying answer”可知,当他要求知名服装公司来支持他的研究项目
40、Benign by Design时,Browne并没有得到令人满意的答案。所以通过didnt get a satisfying answer,可以判断出Browne要使服装公司支持他的研究项目,这是很困难的,故推断出布朗的Benign by Design正面临一些困难。故D选项正确。15Whats the best title for the text?AIts important to learn to recycleBIts never easy to solve pollution problemsCRecycled plastic clothing: solution or pollu
41、tion?DAre human beings moving forward or backward?C标题归纳题。通读全文可知,在过去的五年里,大量的服装公司、企业和环保组织已经开始将塑料变成织物来处理塑料污染。但是这种方法有一个问题。现在的研究表明,微纤维可能是海洋中塑料的最大来源。来自加州圣巴巴拉的马克布朗博士的研究也证实了这一点。所以短文主要是围绕着“回收塑料服装:是解决方案还是污染”而展开的。故短文最佳标题是“回收塑料服装:是解决方案还是污染”。故C选项正确。.阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)Teenagers earning moneyIn the United
