【题目】One morning last week I looked out of my study window and saw that it was a fine day. No, it was a wonderful day: the sun shone down from a sky without even a single cloud. But later that day, hard at work at my desk, I heard a loud noise on the roof. Turning to the window, I saw that the sky was now the color of charcoal. Two minutes later the rain poured, making rivers of water.

1It’s extremely variable. Go ahead with your picnic in the local park by all means, but don’t suppose that because the sun is shining now, it will be when you open your pack of sandwiches. 2

The weather in Britain is not always bad. 3This is one of the biggest reasons why the British talk so often about the weather. Wherever there are strangers standing or sitting close together, and talk can not be avoided. The conversation focuses on the weather: “Yes, the weather has been good, hasn’t it?” or “4

The unexpected change of the weather is something that every British can agree on.5 Even those with different opinions on everything else in the world, such as the argument in the UK about membership of the European Union, can talk about the weather without leading to a quarrel.

A. It is just changeable.

B. That makes it a safe topic of conversation.

C. You’d better take an umbrella, just in case.

D. What shocking weather we’ve been having!

E. Strangers will choose to talk about the weather to break the ice.

F. This story will give you some idea about weather in Britain.

G. Are you going for a picnic?

【答案】

1F

2C

3E

4D

5A

【解析】 英国天气变化快,这是英国人都接受的。所以英国人的谈话离不开天气,甚至是陌生人在英国也能用谈论天气情况而打断僵局。

1F

考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据第二段中的描述可知英国的天气说变就变,变化快,再下文中的“The weather in Britain is not always bad.”可知上文的故事就是告诉我们英国的天气变大。分析选项F项(这个故事将使你对英国的天气有所了解)。就是上文与下文内容的一个衔接。故选F项。

2C

考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据 “It’s extremely variable”天气变化多端。可推断出不要认为现在阳光灿烂,就可以打开食物吃了,因为天所就变就变,所以最好要带把伞。分析选项可知C(你最好带把伞,以防万一)符合题意,故选C。

3E

考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据本段中的“This is one of the biggest reasons why the British talk so often about the weather. Wherever there are strangers standing or sitting close together, and talk can not be avoided. The conversation focuses on the weather:”这是英国人经常谈论天气的最大原因之一。每当有陌生人站在一起或坐在一起,关于天气的谈话都是不可避免的。分析选项可知E项(陌生人会选择谈论天气来打破僵局)符合题意,且E项与本段有词的复现。故选E项。

4D

考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。根据本段的内容可知,陌生人谈话的内容都是说天气如何的。分析只有D项与A项都与谈论天气有关。但陌生人肯定会对天气变化快而感到震惊的,故D项符合题意。

5A

考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。本段内容说:每个英国人都能同意英国天气的变化突然。即使是对世界上其他事物持有不同意见的人,比如英国关于欧盟成员国的论点,谈论天气时也不会引起争吵它只是可变的。因为天气只是多变的。这是大家都接受的。分析选项可知A项符合题意。

The water we drink and use was running short. We all have to learn how to stop wasted water. One of the step that we should take is to find ways of reusing them. Today in the most large cities, fresh water is used only once and then it runs in a waste system. But it is possibly to pipe the used water to a purifying factory, when the used water can be treated with chemical materials by the workers sothat it can be reused. But even if every large city purified and reused it's water, we still would have enough water.
