56、第四段第一句“The bottom part of the shoes is covered with Kevlar fibers, a kind of strong material, reducing normal wear and tear.”可知,鞋子的底部附着凯芙拉合成纤维,这是一种增强材料,可以减少正常的磨损;据此可知,由于使用了特殊的材料,这种鞋子的鞋底耐磨,故C项正确。2What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?AHow the sneakers are charged.BHow the sneakers can work well.CWh
57、at images the sneakers show.DWhat technology the sneakers carry.A解析:段落大意题。通读第三段可知,该段第一句“According to Coelho, the sneakers will keep their charge forever if only images are displayed.”为该段的主题句,并结合全段内容可知,该段主要介绍了这种鞋子是如何充电的:活跃的用户可以通过走路来充电,不活跃的用户也可以不用电线充电,故A项正确。3The varied prices of the sneakers mainly de

62、h. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship lots of Ooho bubbles without arriving with a very wet truck.

63、argeting large outdoor events such as marathons,music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter.

64、een working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied for a patent for their new advancement. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is
65、 cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London,San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many peoples attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep

67、 America?AIts sold. BIts recycled.CIts buried. DIts wasted.D解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year.”可知,在美国只有23%的塑料最终回到回收站,这意味着价值超过10亿美元的塑料被视为垃圾。据此可知,在美国,大部分塑料被当成垃圾处理了,故D项正确。6Why did the tea
68、m invent Ooho?ATo make a profit for a company.BTo protect the environment.CTo make people eat as they drink.DTo reduce the cost of the plastic bottle.B解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.”可知,由于塑料瓶的
69、使用污染了环境,故Skipping Rocks Lab发明了一种可以食用的包装材料Ooho,故B项正确。7What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?AOoho is to be a success in the future.BOoho is being supported by smart people.COoho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.DOoho is being produced to attract more investors.A解析:推理
70、判断题。根据最后一段中的“Ooho is catching many peoples attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days.”可知,Ooho吸引了很多人的注意,在三天时间内就得到了1 000 位投资者的关注,筹集到100多万美元;再结合文章最后一句“It is quickly making a rise, so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.”可推知,作者最后一段想要表达的是
71、,在未来Ooho一定能获得成功,故A项正确。【难句分析】It is targeting large outdoor events such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter.分析:本句是一个主从复合句。句中“where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter”为where引
72、导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词“outdoor events”,where在从句中作地点状语。译文:该产品是针对诸如马拉松、音乐节和体育赛事等大型户外活动而发明的,在这些活动中,会使用数吨塑料瓶,并且这些塑料瓶经常被当作垃圾扔下。.完形填空When I was a freshman in college, I had some seniors telling me, “You should not really try to get the highest grades.
