问答题
下面的短文有5处空白,短文后有6个句子,其中5个取自短文,请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有位置,以恢复文章原貌。
Resources Resources are found in nature.They make a better quality of life for humans.Soil, air, water, sunlight and divees are all examples of resources that humans use every day, whether they know it or not. 26
A natural resource is a material found in nature and used by living things.Air, rocks, metals, oil and salt are all natural resources.Renewable (可再生的) resources are resources that can be replaced. 27 Trees that are cut down can be replaced quickly when seeds or baby divees are planted.Water from our bathtubs (浴盆) can be cleaned for use.Plants, wind and rain can help clean the air to make it safe to breathe even if it comes out of a car or a factory.
Sometimes resources cannot be replaced after they are used. 28 Once nonrenewable resources are all used up, nature will not be able to replace them.Oil, natural gas, soil and metals are all examples of nonrenewable resources.
Coal is another example of a nonrenewable resource. 29 Humans mine the coal underground and use it as an energy source.Once humans have mined all the coal from inside Earth, there will be no more for us to depend. 30 For example, wind and water turbines (涡轮机) are now being used to produce energy.
【正确答案】【文章导读】文章主要围绕自然资源介绍了资源的重要性和资源的分类——可再生和不可再生。
26.D 句意:没有资源,人类就无法在地球上生存。由上文“Soil, air, water, sunlight and trees are all examples of resources that humans use every day”可知,人们每天都要用到资源,资源对人来说是不可或缺的,所以此处想表达的应该是资源对人的重要性,D项符合语境,故选D。
27.E 句意:树、空气和太阳能都是可再生资源。上文“Renewable (可再生的) resources are resources that can be replaced.”给出了可再生能源的定义,故此处应该会举例说明哪些资源是可再生的,E项符合题意,故选E。
28.A 句意:有时候资源使用后就不能被替代了,这些资源被称为不可再生资源。由下文“Once nonrenewable resources are all used up, nature will not be able to replace them.”可知,本段主要介绍的是不可再生资源,此处应该介绍它的定义,A项符合题意,故选A。
29.C 句意:煤炭是另一种不可再生资源,它是从地表深处而来的。由下文“Humans mine the coal underground and use it as an energy source”可知,煤炭是在地下开采的,与C项意思相近,故选C。
30.F 句意:幸运的是,人们正在寻找能够替代煤炭的方法。由下文“For example wind and
water turbines are now being used to produce energy.”可知,人们已经可以利用风能和水能来发电,因此风能、水能都是替代煤炭作能源的新方法,F项符合语境,故选F。
