4．In our modern world，when something wears out，we throw it away and buy a new one．The（36）problem is that countries around the world have growing mountains of（37）rubbishbecause peopleare throwing out more rubbish than ever before．
How did we （38）becomea throwaway society？First of all，it is now easier to（39）replace an object than to spend time and money to repair it．（40）Thanksto  modern manufacturing （制造業(yè)） and technology，companies are able to produce products quickly and inexpensively．Products are plentiful and（41）cheap．
Another cause is our（42）love of disposable （一次性的） products．As（43）brave  people，we are always looking for（44）ways  to save time and make our lives easier．Companies（45）produce thousands of different kinds of disposable products：paper plates，plastic cups，and cameras，to name a few．
Our appetite for new products also（46）contributes to the problem．We are（47）addictedto  buying new things．Advertisements persuade us that（48）neweris better and that we will be happier with the latest products．The result is that we（49）throwaway  useful possessions to make room for new ones．
All around the world，we can see the（50）consequences  of this throwaway lifestyle．Mountains of rubbish just keep getting bigger．To（51）decrease  the amount of rubbish and to protect theenvironment52environment，more governments are requiring people to recycle materials．（53）However，this is not enough to solve （解決） our problem．
Maybe there is another way out．We need to repair our possessions（54）insteadof throwing them away．We also need to rethink our attitudes about（55）repairing．Repairing our possessions and changing our spending habits may be the best way to reduce the amount of rubbish and take care of our environment．

9．When I was growing up in America，I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English．Because of her English，she was often treated unfairly．People in department stores，at banks，and at restaurants did not take her seriously，did not give her good service，pretended not to understand her，or even acted as if they did not hear her．
     My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well．When I was fifteen，she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she．I was foxed to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rode to her．One time I had to call her stockbroker （股票經(jīng)紀(jì)人）．I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing，"This is Mrs．Tan．"
     And my mother was standing beside me，whispering loudly，"Why he don't send me cheek，already two week late．"
     And then，in perfect English I said，"I'm getting rather concerned．You agreed to send the check two weeks ago，but it hasn't arrived．"
     Then she talked more loudly．"What he want？I come to New York tell him front of his boss．"And so I turned to the stockbroker again，"I can't tolerate any more excuse．If I don't receive the cheek immediately，I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week．"
     The next week we ended up in New York．While I was sitting there red-faced，my mother，the real Mrs．Tan，was shouting to his boss in her broken English．
     When I was a teenager，my mother's broken English embarrassed me．But now，I see it differently．To me，my mother's English is perfectly clear，perfectly natural．It is my mother tongue．Her language，as I hear it，is vivid，direct，and full of observation and wisdom．It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things，expressed ideas，and made sense of the world．

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2017屆山東省淄博市高三第二次模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Where should an adventurous tourist go? After you’ve done sightseeing in London, shopping in New York, enjoyed the local food in Paris, and danced to your heart’s content at the Brazilian carnival, where else can you go? What attractive tourist destination awaits you?

Well, Antarctica sounds like the holiday of a lifetime! It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Just a few scientists in research stations share the icy landscape with penguins and other animals which can struggle with the low temperatures.

Tourism began in Antarctica in the 1950s and it's still small part. About 37,000 tourists are expected there this season, but many won't even leave the boat.

The BBC’s Juliet Rix visited the frozen continent and asked herself if she should be there at all, causing potential problems to such a sensitive environment. Her tour guide admitted that all visitors leave a footprint and they all go to the same places, the accessible coastline, which is also where the penguins and seals go to raise.

But some people believe that if carefully controlled, tourism can be good for Antarctica. It has no native population and it needs advocates. Visitors to the icy continent might be ready to support and even to fund its preservation. And they're likely to engage in the discussion about global warming, which has led to the melting of glaciers.

According to Rix, guidelines are followed when you’re about to set foot in Antarctica and tourists have to disinfect（消毒）their boots to make sure no alien species are introduced.

And once on land, there's no eating or smoking. Rocks, bone fragments—nothing should be taken as a souvenir and nothing should be left behind.

Tourists fortunate enough to visit the Antarctic must be aware that this is not their home and keep their fingers crossed that future generations will also be able to enjoy such breathtaking views.

1.Who lives in Antarctica?

A. 37,000 tourists.

B. The BBC's Juliet Rix.

C. A few scientists and animals.

D. People in London and Paris.

2.Why can tourism be good for Antarctica?

A. People can bring some animals into it.

B. People may take interest in the protection of it.

C. People can give advice to the native population.

D. People will go to the coastline to play with the seals.

3.What are the guidelines when you go on the shore?

A. You can leave rubbish on the shore.

B. You can smoke and eat on the shore.

C. You can take something as souvenirs.

D. You can help to protect the environment.

4.What is the author’s attitude towards the tourists going to Antarctica?

A. Positive. B. Ambiguous.

C. Subjective. D. Negative.
