Question

【題目】 Pollution means adding dirty or harmful things to land, air, water and so on. As a result, they are no longer pleasant or safe to use. Pollution is bad for animals and plants, and it even makes people's health in danger. In our daily life, we can see different kinds of pollution in many places. There are three main forms of pollution: land pollution, air pollution and water pollution.

Land pollution is caused by solid waste, such as cans, bottles and some plastic things which aren't broken down quickly. It makes the environment look very bad. However, air pollution is more serious than land pollution. It is much worse in cities and towns because of the fumes(廢氣)from traffic and the waste from human activities. When people drive their cars, fumes which are most made up of CO2, NO2 and SO2 are given off. After the gases get into the air, they may mix with clouds. Then they will become some harmful chemicals falling on the ground with rain. It is one of the reasons for soil erosion(土壤侵蝕)which is one example of water pollution.

Various kinds of pollution will cause many health problems. People have realized they must change this serious situation. There are many ways to control pollution. To develop alternative energy(替代能源)is very popular in many countries. China, for example, has made up its mind to be a leader in this field. It is trying hard to make full use of energy from the sun and wind. It has paid plenty of money to make electric cars and trains instead of traditional traffic. We should also take action to make our environment cleaner every day. Take cloth bags while going shopping and drive cars less. We have only one earth. We must take small steps now to help protect our environment for the future wherever we are.

【解析】

這篇短文介紹的是污染對(duì)我們的危害，介紹了污染的三種形式：土地污染、空氣污染和水污染，并提醒我們要注意保護(hù)我們的環(huán)境。

【1】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)劃線單詞所在的語境Land pollution is caused by solid waste, such as cans, bottles and some plastic things which aren't broken down quickly.“土地污染是由……廢物引起的，如罐頭、瓶子和一些不能很快分解的塑料制品”，由句中所舉的例子可知，這些都是固體的廢物。因此solid意為“固體”。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段中Pollution is bad for animals and plants, and it even makes people's health in danger.以及最后一段Various kinds of pollution will cause many health problems.可知，污染對(duì)于動(dòng)物、植物以及人們的健康都是有害的。故選B。

【3】主旨大意題。根據(jù)短文第一段There are three main forms of pollution: land pollution, air pollution and water pollution.和第二段的內(nèi)容可知，短文先介紹了污染的幾種形式；再由最后一段People have realized they must change this serious situation. There are many ways to control pollution.可知，文章還介紹了如果控制污染。B選項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容符合文章的大意，故選B。
