12.Every day  we are bombarded with images,videos,music and news.In this age of  visual and aural hyper-stimulation,the medium of radio is making a phenomenal  comeback.
"We're at the dawn of a golden age of audio,"said US-based podcaster Alex  Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald.In the last month alone,15  percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast.These statistics,released by Edison  Research,reveal the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present  day's digital podcast format.The term"podcast,"was coined in 2004,but the trend only  started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years.Since the leap in consumer  demand for smartphones and tablets,podcast subscription rates have only accelerated.
The appeal of the podcast partially resides in its multiplatform delivery and  on-demand capabilities.You can tune in during those extra minutes of the day when  you're walking to the shops,waiting in a queue or riding the subway.Similar to television shows,podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content  every week.
Donna Jackson,22,Sydney university media graduate,listens to podcasts two or three times a week,via iTunes."I listen while I'm pottering around the house doing  something else.It makes completing a boring task a lot more enjoyable…And it's an  easy way of keeping in touch with what's going on in the rest of the world,"she said.
Unlike television and music,the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers.Blumberg says this comes down to the podcast's ability"to  create intimacy and emotional connection."Sydney University undergraduate Hazel  Proust,major in social work and arts,agrees."When you're tuned in,it feels as if the voice of the podcast's narrator is talking directly to you.It's comforting,"said Proust.

21.From the passage,we can learn thatB.
A.Radio is developing more quickly than mediums with images,videos,music and news.
B.Podcast has its origin in the traditional radio broadcasts.
C.In the last month alone,15percent of world adults listened to a radio podcast.
D.Podcast was becoming popular from 2004.
22.By saying"We're at the dawn of a  golden age of audio,"Alex Blumberg wants to
Tell us thatC
A.Traditional radio broadcasts will be loved by people again.
B.Radio has attracted more people than TV and other forms of media.
C.Radio will be more and more popular in the form of podcast.
D.The Sydney Morning Herald will help radio become popular again.

B.You can download it without pay.
C.You can learn new content every week from it.
D.You can listen to it according to your own demand.
24.From the last paragraph,we can inferC
A.television and music has become less popular
B.Hazel Proust has different opinions with Blumberg
C.podcast can build up close relationship with listeners
D.using podcast the narrator can talk to listeners directly.

分析 播客是什么?现如今有很多人开始玩播客了.传统广播已成功转型,变成了如今数字播客的形式.当你听播客时,你 会感觉播主在直接与你交流. 这让人感觉很舒心.

解答 21.B.推理判断题.由第二段中的"In the last month alone,15percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast.These statistics,released by Edison Research,reveal the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present day's digital podcast format"可知,现在的博客是由传统的收音机广播发展转变来的.即博客起源于传统的收音机广播;故选B.
22.C.推理判断题.由该段中的数据和介绍可知,收音机以播客形式出现,越来越受欢迎.Alex Blumberg所说的话印证了播客愈来愈受欢迎的趋势.故选C.
23.A.推理判断题.由第三段中的"The appeal of the podcast partially resides in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities"可知,博客可以按消费者的需求播放,故D选项说法正确.由"Similar to television shows,podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week"可知,B、C选项说法正确.故用排除法,故选A.
24.C.推理判断题.由最后一段中的"the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers.Blumberg says this comes down to the podcast's ability"to create intimacy and emotional connection"可知,播客能给听众留下深刻印象.它能制造出一种亲密感、能建立起(与听众的)精神纽带.故选C.

点评 考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.

2.These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint.Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses,factories,and offices.
Green building means"reducing the effect of the building on the land",Taryn Holowka of the U.S.Green Building Council(评议会) in Washington,D.C.,said.According to Holowka,building accounts for 65percent of total U.S.electricity use.
But green buildings can reduce energy and water use.Also,the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways,so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment,because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land,so that the buildings don't destroy forests.
Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that puts these ideas into action.The Solaire has been called the country's first green high-rise building.According to Dettling,"We've reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50percent."
The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power."On the face of the building we have solar panels(光板) which change the sun's energy into electricity,"Dettling explained.
The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room.In addition,the building has lots of windows,allowing people to use the sun for light during the day.The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.
Not everyone is eager to move into a green building,however.Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources.Anyhow,Holowka said,"It's going to be big."

32.A green building meansC.
A.a building that uses no electricity         
B.a building occupying less land
C.a building that saves energy and water      
D.a green-colored building
33.A green building is often built on an area of landA.
A.which has already been for buildings
B.which has thick forests around
C.where people of high income live
D.where traveling around by car is most convenient
34.When Holowka says inthe last paragraph,"It's going to be big",she means that green buildingsB.
A.will be more comfortable 
B.will become popular in future
C.will be more environmentally friendly    
D.will take the place of traditional buildings
35.Which is the main idea of the passage?C
A.Dettling designed the first green building in the U.S.
B.The Solaire serves as a model of high buildings.
C.Green buildings help save the environment.
D.Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.
