這篇文章主要講了帶走城市的垃圾是一件巨大的工程，垃圾被放到遠(yuǎn)離城市之外，垃圾都是放在低地或大坑里面，在這些垃圾的上面可以種草或建造房屋。在垃圾中有一部分是金屬可以回收利用，一些垃圾是可以成為其他植物的食物。

【1】根據(jù)上文Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job.可知下文是每天都有卡車進(jìn)城來(lái)收。collect動(dòng)詞，收集，動(dòng)詞不定式表示目的，后加動(dòng)詞原形。根據(jù)題意，故選C。

【2】這里詞句猜測(cè)題，根據(jù)上文The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces廚房垃圾被分解成小塊，可知下文是送入污水系統(tǒng)，這里是sewage的意思是“排污”，故選A。

【3】Rubbish would be a mountain if we didn’t take it away意思是“如果我們不把垃圾帶走，它將是座山。”文中第一段最后一句 If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.意思是“如果我們保留這些東西，很快就會(huì)有堆積如山的垃圾�！边@兩個(gè)句子是同義句，故填If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.

【4】The fire burns everything. ③but the metal.意思是“火把一切都燒了，除了是金屬�！�but在這里的意思是“除了”相當(dāng)于except，除了，排除在外的意思。根據(jù)題意，故填except。

【5】根據(jù)文中some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. 一些土被用來(lái)覆蓋新傾倒的垃圾；Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. 可以在滿是垃圾的土地上種草； Finally. a house or a school may be built there最后，一所房子或一所學(xué)�？赡軙�(huì)建在那里。這里的正確順序是A；C；B；故填1)A ;2); C3) B。

【6】根據(jù)文中Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole.可知，城市垃圾場(chǎng)通常放在地面較低或有大洞的地方。故填The city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole.。

明確任務(wù)后，要迅速閱讀全文來(lái)了解文章主要內(nèi)容，以及文章的感情基調(diào)、作者的意圖等。因?yàn)榇蠹抑�道在材料后的�?wèn)題設(shè)置中，經(jīng)常有對(duì)文章大意的考查。對(duì)于概括大意的題目，需要全篇考慮，這類題目有時(shí)可以從文中直接找到答案，但有時(shí)需要用自己的話來(lái)概括。這類題難度較大，對(duì)文章還得再讀一讀，才能總結(jié)出來(lái)。第2小題是詞句猜測(cè)題。這里詞句猜測(cè)題，根據(jù)上文The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces廚房垃圾被分解成小塊，可知下文是送入污水系統(tǒng)，這里是sewage的意思是“排污”，故選A。
