Answer 1

【主旨大意】本篇短文通过讲述污染的情况，来倡导人们争做“greener people”。

36. A  根据后面的并列成份“air pollution, soil pollution, noise pollution and light pollution”可推断在举例，故选A。

37. C  固定短语。be bad for ... 是固定短语，故选C。

38. D  词形辨析。breath 名词，意思是“呼吸”；breathe 动词，意思是“呼吸”；breathed 是动词breathed的过去式或过去分词；breathing是breathe动词的现在分词或者动名词。由名词problems可推断应用动名词来修饰它，故选D。

39. B   chemical形容词“化学的”，或作名词“化学制品;化学药品”；chemist名词，“化学家”；chemistry

名词，“化学”。由many+可数名词复数可推断应选B项。

40.C 根据句子“people may lose their hearing if...”可以推断应该是“噪音问题可能使人们聋了。”故选C。

A.          B  根据前后句意可推断应该是“一个噪音的地方”；noise名词，意思是“噪音”，noisy形容词“噪音的”，故选B。

42.  A  四个选项的意思都是“也”。as well只能放在句末；too放在肯定句句末且前面要有逗号隔开；also放在句中或句末；either放在否定句句末且前面有逗号隔开。故选A。

43. D  情态动词的用法。must意为“必须”（主观意志）；need意为“需要”；should意为“应该”（某件事宜于做）；may意为“可能，可以”；根据句意可推断出D项。

44. C  由系动词feel可知后跟形容词，构成系表结果；再根据句子“is especially bad for the eyes.”可推断应选C项。

45 B 根据句子“our planet will become greener and our health will be better. ”可知“更少的污染”；由pollution是不可数名词可推断选B项。
