11.Want to save the environment?You probably can't fix everything on your own,but by taking small steps and keeping the environment in mind every day,you can make a difference,
1Think Green.Challenge yourself to think about the environment as you live your life.If you shut off lights when you leave the room,turn off your TV when you're not watching it,you'll save energy.If you take shorter showers,you'll save water.
2Shop Green.Shopping is fun,but buying things you don't need is wasteful and bad for the earth.Before you buy something,ask yourself how much you'll really use it.Keep yourself away from buying products with unnecessary packaging (包裝),and whenever possible,buy things that were locally made instead of those shipped from far away.
3Dress Green.Wear green trousers and T-shirts if you want.But what really matters isn't the colour,it's how the clothes were made.If you want to help the environment,the best place to find clothes is at a vintage store,but you might not want to buy everything used.No matter where you shop,keep an eye out for products made from environmentally friendly materials like organic(有機的) cotton,which is grown without the use of pesticides ( 殺蟲劑).
4Study Green.What's better than learning about the environment?Save it while you learn,It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it,or reusing an old textbook:instead of buying a new one.If you want to do more,join an environmental group at your school,and encourage your friends to join,too.

分析 你想拯救環(huán)境嗎?也許你自己一人不可能改變一切,但是每天做出點滴努力,將環(huán)境保護時刻記在心上,那么你就會大有所為.
1、綠色思想.在你日常生活里,督促自己去時刻環(huán)保.如果你離開了房間,就把燈給關(guān)了,電視不看了,就關(guān)上,這樣會節(jié)約能源.如果你縮短淋浴的時間,那就會節(jié)約水源.
2、綠色購物.購物是件有趣的事,但是你要是買了你不需要的東西,那不僅浪費,而且對地球有所傷害.在買東西前,問一下自己,你真正能使用它多少次.不要買那些有無用包裝的產(chǎn)品.無論什么時候,盡可能買本地出產(chǎn)的商品,別買從很遠地方運來的.
3、著裝綠色.如果你愿意的話,就穿綠色的褲子和T恤.但我們真正想強調(diào)的不是顏色,而是衣服制造的過程.如果你想保護環(huán)境,去找衣服的最好的地方是舊式(二手)商店.但你不可能什么都買舊的.以后無論在哪買都要留意一下那些環(huán)保型材料制造的衣服.例如有種材料:有機棉,就是不用殺蟲劑培養(yǎng)出來的.
4、綠色學(xué)習(xí).還有比學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)環(huán)境的知識更好的做法了嗎?當(dāng)你學(xué)習(xí)時,你就可以做,做起來很簡單,在你回收紙張前,先把紙張的另一面也利用起來.或者不用買新的筆記本,重復(fù)使用舊的.如果你還想多做一些,那就參加學(xué)校里的環(huán)保社團吧,同時也鼓勵你的朋友加入進來.
解答 54.C. 詞義猜測題.根據(jù)下文but you might not want to buy everything used可知但是你可能不想買一切用過的東西,從這里可以判斷在a vintage store可以買到二手的衣服,這里a vintage store的意思是舊式(二手)商店.故選C.
55.B.細節(jié)理解題.從下文Keep yourself away from buying products with unnecessary packaging這里的意思是遠離買不必要的包裝產(chǎn)品,可知B選項Buying products with unnecessary packaging的說法是錯誤的.故選B.
56.D.主旨大意題.從下文的Think/shop/guess/studyGreen可知,講的是一些關(guān)于綠色生活的方法,故選D.
點評 做題時要在理解好文意的基礎(chǔ)上,與題目有機的結(jié)合,從文章中找到相關(guān)細節(jié)性的句子與選項細細比對,進行選擇或推理判斷,選出符合文章內(nèi)容的正確選項.做題注意靈活,有時可采用排除法或直選法確定出最終答案.
