19、nd pollute the environment.In order to make all the 29 billion bottles，producers use 17 million barrels of oil，which is enough to keep a million cars going for 12 months.So why dont people drink water straight from the tap?

27、 that she has lost the ability of labour.1C短语be worth后面要求跟动名词形式，且用主动形式表示被动的意思，而be worthy后的结构为of being done或to be done。2B考查动词的辨析。前一句话说明自行车闸松了，因此这里使用动词fix，表示“加固；拧紧”的意思。3B短语stand out的意思为“突出；显眼；醒目”。4A句意：对面墙上挂着十几张画，其中包括两张中国地图。5D考查同位语从句的引导词的用法。根据句子“has not been cleared up yet”判断，此处使用whether，表示“是否”的意思。6B句意
28、：几年前没有人能够想象到计算机在市场中将会扮演的角色。be to do sth表示将来的动作。7Areason后面是个定语从句，was后面是个表语从句。reason作先行词时，关系副词用why；reason作主语时，后面的表语从句只能用that引导，故答案为A。8A句意：1959年见证了世界上第一艘飞船的出现。此处为拟人的手法。9Bnot only.but(also)连接的并列句，not only放到句首引起倒装。10Abe tired of“厌倦；厌烦”； be tired with“因而疲劳”。not only.but also句型的主谓一致遵循就近一致的原则，故该句话的主语为Jane。1
29、1A第一空为that引导的主语从句，陈述事实，it为形式主语。名词permission为不可数名词，表示“许可，同意”的意思，而permit为可数名词，意思为“通行证”。12Afamiliar熟悉的；similar相似的。13A动词win的宾语为“比赛；奖项”等，而beat的宾语为“人或运动队”。14Crather than的前后为对比的并列关系，所以应根据前面的谓语动词spend来使用动名词形式，构成spend money doing sth结构。15C此处为动名词形式作伴随状语。.1D细节理解题。根据第一段第一句和第三段可知答案。2A推理判断题。根据第三段：“Thanks，but no，”
30、 Alex said firmly and swiftly ，“Ill never lose heart but keep writing.”可知答案。3A推理判断题。根据全文尤其是最后一段可知答案。4C主旨大意题。根据全文尤其是第二和倒数第二段可知答案。5D细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知答案。6D推理判断题。根据第四段：People love the convenience of bottled water.知很多美国人选择瓶装水是因为图方便和自认为瓶装水比自来水更好。7C词义猜测题。根据第五段和本句可知需要几百年才能把塑料瓶(自然地)分解。8A推理判断题。结合全文可知作者希望人们能够从环保节能的角度出发，少喝瓶装水，多喝自来水。
