D.Minerals.答案:D解析:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段后兩句的內(nèi)容可知,A、B、C三項均是危害的來源,而D項文中沒有提及。23Accordingtothetext,whatisthemainreasonfortherisksfromchemicals?A.Poormanagementofchemicals.B.Lackofresearchfundsonchemicals.C.Themassproductionofcementandtextiles.D.Contradictionsbetweenchemicalproducersandgovernments.答案:A解析:細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“Bettermanagementofchemicals...”和第二段中的“SylvieLemmet,directoroftheUnitedNationsEnvironmentProgramme,sayspoormanagementofchemicalshasahigheconomiccost.”可知應選A項。24Whatwouldbethebesttitleforthetext?A.ThetruthinSylvieLemmet’smentsB.AUNwarningaboutchemicaldangersC.TheunpredictablefutureofchemicalindustryD.Preventingismuchbetterthanfixing答案:B解析:主旨大意題。本文講的是聯(lián)合國環(huán)境規(guī)劃署號召我們要采取行動來減少日益增加的化學產(chǎn)品給人類帶來的危害。故B項做本文的標題最合適。BThepersonalputerhasovertakenthefamilydogasman’sbestfriend,accordingtoastudy.Researchersfoundthatjust6percentofusbelievethat“mostpeoplerelymoreontheirdogthantheydoontheirPC”,while67percentthinktheoppositetobetrue.Even38percentofdogownersadmitrelyingmoreontheirPCthanontheirdog,although36percentdisagreed.And71percentof18to24yearolddogownerssaidtheyreliedmoreontheirputer.PaulAllen,editorofputerActiveMagazine,whichconductedthepollwiththeRoyalSocietyForTheProtectionOfCrueltytoAnimals,said,“ThesedaysyoucaneventakeyourPCforawalk,providedyouhavealaptoportablet.”“It’sonlyamatteroftimeuntilthefirstPCthatfetchesyourslippers.”Researchersquestioned2,000Britishadultstofindoutaboutthechangemoderntechnologyhasbroughttotheirhomelife.Theyfoundthatmaledogownersarealmosttwiceaslikelyasfemaleownerstorelyontheirputerthanacaninepanion.Mr.Allensaid,“Withbroadbandbringingthemglobalnewsandnewspapersalesfalling,thefamilydogevenmissesoutonthepleasureoftakingthepapertohisowner.”Butit’snotallbadnewsforhonestdogs.“ThefamilyPChasgivendogownersaccesstoawealthofresourcesandinformationthatcanhelpwiththelongtermcarethatadogneeds,”Mr.Allensaid.25Accordingtothestatistic,relymoreontheirputers.

A.dogownersagedfrom18to24B.femaledogownersC.BritishadultsD.36%ofthepeople答案:A解析:細節(jié)理解題。從文章第四段“And71percentof18to24yearolddogownerssaidtheyreliedmoreontheirputer.”可以知道,18歲至24歲的寵物狗主人中,有71%表示更依賴電腦。26Whichofthefollowingistheadvantagethatputershavebroughttodogs?A.Theycangooutforawalkwiththeirowners.B.Theycanbebetterlookedafter.C.Theywon’thavetotakepapertotheirowners.D.Theycangetonwellwiththeirowners.答案:B解析:細節(jié)理解題。文章的最后一段向我們說明的是家庭電腦給寵物狗帶來的好處就是有利于主人對寵物狗的照顧。27Thefamilydogevenmissesoutonthepleasureoftakingthepapertohisownerbecause.

A.peoplegraduallylosetheirinterestinnewspapersB.familydogsdon’twanttodothatanymoreC.peopledon’twanttoreadnewspapersD.peopleprefertoputersfornewsandinformation答案:D解析:細節(jié)理解題。文章倒數(shù)第三段說的是隨著家庭電腦的普及使用,人們上網(wǎng)就可以看全球新聞,導致報紙銷售量下降,所以寵物狗也就減少了為主人叼報紙的樂趣了。28Theunderlinedword“provided”meansinthepassage.

A.offered B.supposedC.aslongas D.eventhough答案:C解析:詞義猜測題。provided相當于aslongas,意思是“只要”,表示條件。CHaveyoueverwishedyoucouldhaveacloneofyourselftodohomeworkwhileyouwentoutplayingwithyourfriends?Imagineifyoucouldreallydothat,wherewouldyoustart?Whatexactlyiscloning?Cloningisthecreationofanorganismthatisanexactgeneticcopyofanother.ThismeansthateverysinglebitofDNAisthesamebetweenthetwo!Youmightnotbelieveit,buttherearehumanclonesamongusrightnow.Theyweren’tmadeinalab,thoughthey’reidenticaltwins,creatednaturally.Below,we’llseehownaturalidenticaltwinsrelatetomoderncloningtechnologies.Howiscloningdone?Howdoesonegoaboutmakinganexactgeneticcopyofanorganism?Thereareacoupleofwaystodothis:artificialembryotwinningandsomaticcellnucleartransfer.Howdotheseprocessesdiffer?ArtificialembryotwinningArtificialembryotwinningistherelativelylowtechmethodofcloning.Asthenamesuggests,thistechnologyimitatesthenaturalprocessofcreatingidenticaltwins.Artificialembryotwinningusesthesameapproach,butitoccursinadishinsteadofinthemother’sbody.SomaticcellnucleartransferSomaticcellnucleartransfermeansusingadifferentmethodfromartificialembryotwinning,butitproducesthesameresult:anexactclone,orageneticcopyofanindividual.ThiswasthemethodusedtocreateDollythesheep.TomakeDolly,researchersseparatedasomaticcellfromanadultfemalesheep.Next,theytransferredthenucleusfromthatcelltoaneggcellfromwhichthenucleushadbeenremoved.Afterchemicalswereused,theeggcell,withitsnewnucleus,developedintoanembryo,whichwasimplantedintoamotherandcarriedtoterm.29Ifanorganismisclonedandaneworganismappears,.
