10to make

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章针对英国政府颁布的禁止在化妆品等产品中使用塑料微粒这一禁令,解释了其可以给环境带来的益处。

1考查动词的时态和语态。句意:塑料微珠或细小的固体塑料微粒在化妆品、洗面奶、牙膏和其他产品中被广泛使用。该段的主时态是一般现在时,Plastic microbeads or tiny solid plastic particlesuse之间是被动关系,故用一般现在时的被动语态。故填are used

2考查副词。句意:并最终流入海洋。此处用所给词的副词修饰动词短语end up。故填eventually

3考查介词。句意:海洋里的塑料会危害鱼类和植物,甚至导致它们死亡。“put…in danger”意为……置于危险的境地,为固定搭配。故填in

4考查主谓一致。句意:官方表明禁令将阻止水污染并同时帮助保护海洋生物。根据空后的谓语动词say可知,该空用所给名词的复数以符合主谓一致。故填Officials

5考查名词。句意:官方表明禁令将阻止水污染并同时帮助保护海洋生物。根据空前的the和空后的of可知,此处用所给词的名词。故填protection

6考查非谓语动词。句意:因此帮助保护我们珍贵的海洋。help与前面整个句子存在逻辑上的主谓关系,故用所给词的现在分词,作状语。故填helping

7考查形容词。句意:世界上的海洋是我们最有价值的自然资源。此处用所给词的形容词修饰natural things。故填valuable

8考查名词性从句。句意:而我们现在要做的就是处理掉那些对海洋生物造成严重损害的塑料。分析句子结构可知,该空引导的是一个主语从句,从句缺少宾语,故此处用连接代词what。故填what

9考查冠词。句意:事实上,自然中那些能加以利用来制造个人护理用品的绿色资源是很多的。此处“the amount of…”意为“……的数量。故填the

10考查非谓语动词。句意:事实上,自然中那些能加以利用来制造个人护理用品的绿色资源是很多的。此处用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to make

【题目】 On my fourth day in a self-driving car, I finally felt comfortable enough to let it stop itself. Before then, I'd allowed the car-a Volvo S90 sedan-to control the direction, with my hands still on the wheel, and to adjust speed in traffic. By Day 4, I was ready to make a jump into the future.

With the car traveling on a busy road, I activated the driverless mode. Soon, a traffic light turned red. For a split second, I prepared to get on the brakes. There was no need. The cameras and computers in the Volvo recognized the traffic conditions and smoothly began applying the brake.

If you're anything like most people, you're familiar with this anxiety. Almost 80 percent of Americans fear traveling in a self-driving car, a recent survey found.

Researchers at the University of Chicago have conducted some clever experiments studying the phenomenon. They asked participants to complete tasks and compare their performance with a computer system's. After the computer made a mistake, people were unwilling to use it again. After the people made mistakes, their self-confidence wouldn't change. It didn't matter that the human beings made more mistakes than the computer. So it is with driving. More than 37,000 Americans died in crashes last year, most from human error. The death count from cars goes beyond that from guns. So if you are shocked and angry by guns and want things to change, you should feel the same about car crashes.

Technology creates an opportunity to save lives. Computers don't get drunk or distracted by text messages, and they don't have blind spots. Just look at commercial airlines: Automation has helped all but get rid of deadly crashes among American air carriers. The last one happened in 2009.

The technology for self-driving cars still isn't good enough. But it is improving rapidly. Within a few years, many cars will have advanced crash-avoidance systems and driving will be revolutionized sooner than many people now understand.

1How does the author introduce the topic?

A.By offering a piece of news.B.By giving background information.

C.By describing an experience.D.By introducing a latest car.

2What can be learnt about the participants of the experiments?

A.They tended to accept the computer's faults.

B.They seemed to care little about their own mistakes.

C.They felt less confident after making mistakes.

D.They performed better than computer systems.

3The author mentioned commercial airlines___________.

A.to prove the advantage of technologyB.to assess the security of driverless cars

C.to find fault with computersD.to advertise for the commercial airlines

4What does the author expect of the self-driving car?

A.I'll avoid deadly crashes entirely.B.It'll occupy the market in a short time.

C.It'll be bettered in every possible way.D.It'll be popularized sooner than expected.

【题目】 With the news filled with frightening reports about a new coronavirus (冠状病毒),COVID-19, it's easy to feel anxious. However, you don't need to worry, especially when you're following professional guidelines for protecting yourself1

Get your information from trustworthy sources (来源).2, and some of them may contain inaccurate or outdated information. To make sure that you're getting accurate and reasonable information, stick to sources like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization.

【题目】 FLEA MARKETS (跳蚤市场)

For the best selection of flea market product, get there as soon as it opens on the first day of the market. If it’s open Saturday and Sunday all year round, go early on Saturday morning. For seasonal or annual flea markets, go early in the season, preferably the first weekend. You’ll have first pick of the goods the vendors (小贩) gathered during the year.

For the biggest discounts, it’s just the opposite. Shop mid to late afternoon during the final day, or days, of the flea market. The vendors are tired and ready to get home –and they might just cut you some fantastic deals if you ask. You may have to haggle a bit, but you’ll probably go home with some bargains, especially if you’re buying large, heavy pieces the tired sellers don’t want to pack and load.

YARD SALES

Yard sale shopping is a lot like flea market shopping. You’ll find the best selections when the sale first starts. Go early on the first day of the sale. If the sale starts at 7 am, be there a few minutes before – but not so early that you’re labeled an early bird. Don’t wait until Saturday to visit a yard sale that starts on Friday.

Like flea market vendors, yard sale sellers aren’t as willing to haggle early in the morning, but the prices are usually pretty low to start. Don’t wait until the afternoon bargain hours to shop at yard sales.

THRIFT STORES (旧货店)

For the best thrift store selections, ask the employees when the new product arrives. It could be a certain day of the week or a certain time each day. Find out, and then plan your visits for those days and times.

Thrift store prices are usually low, so you might want to snatch things up as soon as you find them. If the prices seem unusually high, ask about their sale structure. Thrift stores don’t always state their sales clearly and sometimes the sales are confusing. Find out when they discount the items that interest you. That’s when you’ll find the best deals.

1As for the biggest discounts in the Flea Markets, you’d better______.

A.get there about 6:50 am on Friday

B.go early on Saturday morning

C.ask the host when the new product arrives

D.buy items late afternoon during the last day

2The best Thrift Store selections should be taken_______.

A.after the sale startsB.as soon as you find them

C.when new items arriveD.before the afternoon bargain begins

3The text is most probably intended for ______.

A.antique collectorsB.economical shoppers

C.product vendorsD.wealthy people
