Question

Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. That means that we’re always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn’t like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid? That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.

Here are some other ways to help save resources (資源)for the society:

★Use the other side of the paper.

★Use rechargeable (可再充電的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.

★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups.

★Take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping.

★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.

And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.

【解析】【主旨大意】：本文是說明文。本文介紹了節(jié)約能源的幾種方式。

1.詞義猜測題    根據(jù)下文內(nèi)容可知“拋棄社會”指的是“我們的社會”。故此處句意：有時(shí)候人們叫我們的社會一個(gè)拋棄社會�？膳袛噙xA。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題    由第二段 “Here are some other ways to help save resources for the society.”可知上文所提到的是為社會節(jié)約資源。故選D。

3.邏輯推理  本文主要要講了節(jié)約資源的一些方式，提倡我們把自己不用的東西送給別人，我們可以使用一些可循環(huán)利用的物品。所以C 選項(xiàng)錯誤。

4.主旨大意題    本文只要講了一些節(jié)約資源的一下方式，提倡盡可能的把自己不用的送給需要的人，提倡我們使用可循環(huán)利用的物品，盡可能的減少浪費(fèi)。

難句釋解: That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. 那就少買一個(gè)他們需要的塑料玩具汽車。

It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy show. 那也就少了一個(gè)需要生產(chǎn)，包裝與運(yùn)送到玩具展的一個(gè)塑料小汽車了。
