(2021·西安市标准化考练,C)
On a visit to Japan, Wangari Maathai learned the story of the hummingbird (蜂鸟) and the forest fire. While the other animals run in fear, the hummingbird flies above the fire time and again, leaving a few drops of water from its beak.
“Why do you bother?” the other animals shout at the hummingbird. “I'm doing the best that I can,” the hummingbird replies.
“It's such a beautiful story,” Ms. Maathai says, thinking of the world's environmental problems. “There's always something we can do with our little beak like the little hummingbird.”
In 2004 Maathai was honored with a Nobel Peace Prize for her work founding the Green Belt Movement (GBM), which hires villagers, especially women, to improve the environment. Since then, she's realized that people's values are what inspire them. If the values are good ones, good actions will follow.
“If you don't have good values, you'll develop vices (恶劣行径),” says Maathai. “And if we give in to the vice, we destroy ourselves. We destroy the environment.” That's the message of her new book.
In 1971, Maathai received a doctor's degree from the University of Nairobi, the largest university in Kenya. She's now back in her homeland beginning work on the Wangari Maathai Institute for Peace and Environmental Studies (WMI) at the University of Nairobi. “They want to call it after me,” she says.
WMI will pay more attention to “learning by doing” and use knowledge to deal with real problems. “What Africa needs is people who are willing to get their fingers dirty and work with the people,” says Maathai.
Planting trees is one way people connect with the natural world. She continues to inspire others. “There is no lasting peace until we have peace with the earth itself,” she says.
文章大意:本文是一篇报道。疼惜环境人人有责,文章主要叙述了诺贝尔和平奖获得者Maathai疼惜环境的一些具体活动以及她关于疼惜环境的一些看法。
9.Why does Wangari Maathai think highly of the hummingbird?
A.It can create water from its beak.
B.It helps the other animals run away.
C.It tries its best to put out the fire.
D.It finds out a way to save the forest.
答案:C 细节理解题。依据其次段中“I'm doing the best that I can”和第三段“... thinking of the world's environmental problems. ‘There's always something we can do with our little beak like the little hummingbird.’”可知,Maathai对蜂鸟评价很高的缘由是蜂鸟会尽自己的全力去扑灭大火。故C项正确。
10.Those who work for GBM are mainly ________.
A.environmental experts
B.women villagers
C.people who had good values

答案:B 细节理解题。依据第四段第一句“... which hires villagers, especially women, to improve the environment.”可知,B项正确。

12.According to Wangari Maathai, ________.
A.good actions lead to good values
B.people's values influence their actions
C.everybody has a possibility to develop vices
D.people who have bad values may have good actions
答案:B 细节理解题。依据第四段最终一句和第五段内容可知,Maathai认为,假如你没有好的价值观,就会有不良行为;假如我们屈从于错误的价值观的话,就会损害自己,破坏环境。故B项正确。
阅读理解。阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳答案。
Many people think a telephone is essential. But I think it is a pest and a time waster. Very often you find it impossible to escape from some idle or curious chatter-box, or from somebody who wants something for nothing. If you have a telephone in your own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when you are taking your bath. Are you strong minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself,“Ah, well, it will all be the same in a hundred years’ time” You are not. You think there may be some important news or messages for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you never rushed dripping from the bath, or chewing from the table, or dazed from the bed, only to be told that you are a wrong number?
But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isn’t it important to have a telephone in case of emergency—illness, an accident, or fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly populated country like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.
I think perhaps I had better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different circumstances—if I were a tycoon(business VIP),for instance, or bed ridden I might find a telephone essential. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car essential.
Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular talent; one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. My own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them. For I have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.
1.The passage is mainly discussing _______.
A. that we should be strong enough to ignore a phone call
B. that important message will reach you sooner or later
C. whether it’s necessary to answer all phone calls
D. whether it is necessary to have a telephone
提示:通读全文,尤其是文章的第一段和最终一段可以得出此结论。
答案:D
2.Judging from the passage, who is strong-minded enough to ignore a phone call?
A. The author. B.A tycoon.
C.A taxi-driver. D. Hardly anyone.
答案:D 大意理解,文章的其次段第三段可以看出
3.According to the passage, the author________.
A. thinks the telephone should go out of our life
B. likes to be different from other people
C. thinks the telephone is annoying
D. speaks favourably of a telephone
提示:文章的其次句就说明白作者的观点,后面又作了进一步的补充说明。
答案:C
4.In the author’s opinion, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Nearly everyone has been told a wrong number.
B. It’s necessary for everyone to have a telephone.
C. He himself can not decide whether to answer a call.
D.A telephone directory may bring in unexpected calls.
提示:从文章的其次段得出答案。
答案:B
