Some experts put forward practical suggestions as follows: for one thing, more money ought to be put into tree planting and forest protection so as to keep more water resources within the surface of the earth.For another, governments of all countries should make laws on environmental protection.For example, banning the use of throwaway chopsticks and punishing illegal tree cutting.Scientists should also study and find ways to cut down the degree of its destruction and to improve the whole environment.How people look forward to sunny days with little breeze(微风) touching their faces now and forever! Nevertheless, I am fully confident that the golden days can come back so long as everyone tries his best to protect natural environment from today on.1From the first paragraph, we can infer_.AChina has taken few measures to prevent sandstormsBthe sandstorm is the most dangerous natural disaster to human beingsCsandstorms can cause much damage to human beings and their daily livesDmore sandstorms will happen in the near future in North China【解析】推理判断题。第一段主要是列举沙尘暴造成的破坏。【答案】C2How many ways do some experts put forward to fight against sandstorms?A2.B3.C4.D5.【解析】细节理解题。综合第二段(“for one thing”,“for another”,“also”)可知提到了三种方法。【答案】B3What's the author's attitude towards the solution to the problem of sandstorms?AUnconfident.BOptimistic.CRegretful.DSatisfied.【解析】作者态度题。由文章的最后一句中的关键词“confident”可以判断作者对沙尘暴问题的解决持乐观态度。【答案】BBA few months before I was born, my dad met a stranger who was new to our small town.From the beginning, my dad was fascinated with this newcomer and soon invited him to live with our family.The stranger was quickly accepted and was around to welcome me into the world a few months later.As I grew up, I never questioned his place in my family.He was our storyteller.He would keep us spellbound for hours on end with adventures, mysteries and comedies.If I wanted to know anything about politics, history or science, he always knew the answers about the past, understood the present and even seemed able to predict the future!
