You are walking down the street, minding your own business when you see a snowball. No big deal, right? Except the snowball is as tall as you are. And weighs about a ton. Did we mention that it is June?
That’s the experience thousand of Londoners had when they crossed paths with “ Snowball in Summer,” Goldsworthy makes sculpture （雕塑）from all sorts of things he finds outside – leaves, earth, and rocks, as well as ice and snow. He wanted to find out how busy people would react to an unexpected snowball melting in their midst.
During the winter of 2008, he rolled 13 giant snowballs near his home in Scotland. He filled each one with a surprise in the center – such as berries, feathers, little stones or sheep’s wool – which would appear as the snow melted. The finished snowballs were stored in a deep freeze until summer, then transported to London in refrigerated trucks. At midnight on June 21, 2008, while the city slept, Goldsworthy and his helpers rolled their snowballs into place.
People walking to work or school must have thought the sky was falling when they stumbled across snowballs the size of baby elephants. Some of them had never even seen snow in real life, and they couldn’t help touching them in great surprise. As the snow started to melt, things got even more interesting. The perfectly round snowballs took on different shapes as the stuff inside began to poke through. Two days later, most of Goldsworthy’s snowballs were gone, and their fillings scattered. But Londoners were left with a really good story about that odd summer day when the snowball came.
What is really special about the snowballs is that ______________________.
A. they lie in the street
B. they are in the shape of baby elephants.
C. they have berries, feathers, little stones and feathers in them.
D. they appear in June.
What was the purpose of Goldsworthy in making the snowballs?
A. To find out people’s reactions to them
B. To call up people’s memory of the cold winter.
C. To show off his skills in sculpture.
D. To let people experience the cold winter.
Why did Goldsworthy and his helpers roll their snowballs into place at mid-night?
A. They didn’t want to disturb other people.
B. It was quite at that time.
C. They wanted to avoid the traffic jam.
D, They wanted to give people a surprise.

科目：高中英语 来源：2014届江西省赣州市高二下学期第二次月考英语卷（解析版） 题型：阅读理解
“Why should I care about the environment?” some people ask. There is a very simple reason: We live on the earth, and it is the only place we can live on right now, as we cannot live in space yet. If we treat the earth like a garbage dump, it will become dirty and unlivable. If we treat it well by being eco-conscious, the earth will stay clean and suitable for living, for ourselves and for our children.
What is “being eco-conscious”?
Being eco-conscious means being aware of your actions, and what you do to the environment. For example, you might think, “Using hairspray is great for fixing my hair.” However, if you are eco-conscious, you would ask, “Does this hairspray have CFCs in it? Could I be destroying the earth by using hairspray?”
How can I be eco-conscious?
You can find many simple ways to help the environment in your everyday life.
When you go shopping, bring a bag or a basket with you. Please try not to use plastic bags as much as you can.
You can go to work by bike or on foot if it is not far from your home.
You can put your rubbish into different bags, which makes it convenient for recycling.
You can eat less chewing gum.
You can use your own chopsticks instead of the disposable ones in your company or in restaurants.
You can put batteries in a special box instead of in garbage bins.
You can use the water which has been used for washing vegetables or fruits to clean the floor and the toilet or to water your garden.
You can turn off the decorative lights in your room when watching TV.
You can turn down your air conditioner by one degree, as this will cause a 10% reduction in energy use.
You can use recycled paper. Every ton of recycled office paper saves 380 gallons of oil. You can also use recycled glass instead of glass made from raw materials. This will reduce the related air pollution by 20%, and the related water pollution by 50%.
Please believe that. If you do a little, it will make a big difference.
1.Human beings should care about the environment because _________ .
A．if we make the earth unlivable, we’ll have to live in space
B．it can help our children live better
C．if we don’t, the earth will become a garbage dump
D．it will help to make the world a good living place
2.If your deskmate is an eco-conscious person, he should __________.
A．be aware of the importance of protecting the environment
B．use plastic bags when he buys something
C．know nothing about CFCs
D．turn his air conditioner to a higher degree
3.If you want to help the environment, you should do all the following EXCEPT ________.
A．share a car with your colleagues
B．use paper bags instead of plastic bags
C．use hairspray containing CFCs
D．use recycled glass instead of glass made from raw materials
4.It can be inferred from the passage that _________.
A．it’s very hard for human beings to keep the earth clean and comfortable
B．protecting the environment is the duty of everybody
C．we should protect the environment together, as it’s no use doing it individually
D．it’s very easy to be eco-conscious
5.According to the author, which of the following statements is WRONG?
A．Being eco-conscious means you should know much about the environment.
B．The more we care, the better the environment will be.
C．If each of us just does a little, we can’t make any difference.
D．If we treat the earth badly, we’ll make a lot of trouble for ourselves.
