高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Each year, about 7 million tons of trash (垃圾) is found in the ocean. This trash consists of cigarette ends, medical waste, plastic, mile-long nets, etc... Those items of trash choke (窒息) many species of ocean life so quickly that they eventually become extinct. Ocean pollution harms the earth and animals, and we should stop the problem.

Some other causes of ocean pollution are waste, poisonous chemicals, and the biggest cause is littering (乱丢垃圾). How do these items end up in the ocean? Waste flows through rivers and drains (下水道) directly to the ocean, so ocean pollution continues to step up. The estimated amount of ocean pollution that floated in the sea in 2012 was 288 million tons. This huge number continues to increase by 4% each year. That means 11, 520, 000 tons of trash increase each year. Imagine the future of our ocean. Will there be any room to swim? Also 80% of the ocean is composed of plastic: plastic bottles, plastic bags, and some plastic toys.

How can ocean pollution be solved? Use fabric bags instead of plastic bags. This would reduce the plastic pollution in the ocean. Also for the waste water problem, we could use waste water treatment system. Lastly using renewable energy sources such as wind power or solar power would limit offshore drilling.

If we don’t stop the causes of ocean pollution, water temperatures will continue to rise and ocean life will become endangered. Please be mindful that what we do affects the people around us, the animals around us, and the habitats around us. So will you pay attention to this problem or wait for the next generation to?

1.What leads to the ocean pollution worst?

A.Cigarette ends. B.Littering.

C.Medical waste. D.Plastic.

2.How many ways are mentioned to solve the problem in Paragraph 3?

A.3 B.4

C.5 D.6

3.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A.To introduce what’s ocean pollution.

B.To make a survey about ocean pollution.

C.To make us know more about ocean pollution.

D.To call on everyone to fight against ocean pollution.

4.What is the best title for the text?

One Breath Away

One day, Daniel decided to finish the landscaping around a dam about 50 meters from his house. He'd been meaning to tidy up an old rock garden against the dam wall. However, while he was working, the wall of the dam gave way and the excavator (挖掘机) slid toward the water. The man and the machine crashed and were trapped into the muddy floor of the dam.

Daniel had to calm himself. Being a surfer of many years, he knew the only way to survive in the water was to slow down and think rationally. He pushed away the panic and began to think.

No one else was on the site, He regretted canceling the guy who was supposed to come and mow (割草) the grass that day. Most likely, the first people to miss him would be his son's teachers when he didn't show up for school pick-up. They wouldn't come to the house. Instead, they would just send his son to after-school care, and the alarm wouldn't be raised until after 6 p.m. and it was now just 11:30 a.m. "I have to stay alive for six or more hours". he thought.

His options were simple—he could either fight or die. There was nothing else he could do but keep pushing himself high enough to breathe.

As time dragged on and the excavator continued to slowly sink, Daniel felt the real danger when he remembered that rain was forecast that day. Just 20 millimeters would be enough to kill him. He could fight for hours, but there were some things over which he had no control. Daniel's ears were full of water and mud. He had no idea where the neighbors were at the moment, but he would have to start calling for help. At the very time, Daniel collected all the strength to push himself high enough out of the water to clear his mouth and yelled out for several times. "Help, help, help!"

Exhausted, he stopped, bursting with anger that no one could hear him. Then out of the corner of his eye, he caught a movement. It was Mel. There she was, running around the corner with her phone in her hand.

That was when he knew he was going to live.

Then within few minutes, the local rescue team arrived. Daniel watched them as they approached—he saw the look of total disbelief on their faces that he was still alive.

1.What is the biggest threat to Daniel s survival?

A. The mud and water.

B. The coming rain.

C. The broken machine.

D. No helper around.

2.Which is the best order to show Daniel’s change of emotion when trapped in the mud?

a. panic

b. scared

c. relieved

d. calm

e. angry

A. a-d-b-e-c

B. d-a-b-c-e

C. a-b-d-e-c

D. d-n-e-c-b

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.

B. Experience is the mother of wisdom.

C. God helps those who help themselves.

D. One false step leads to a huge loss.
