Saturday night, a global effort is set to take place to promote energy conservation—the Earth Hour. To join in on the effort, simply turn off your lights from 8:30-9:30 pm
in your local time zone. This worldwide effort is designed to demonstrate that each
person has a choice in their energy consumption—and at any time can simply choose
to use less. Some 2,400 cities in 82 countries have signed up to participate, six
times more than last year. Some of the landmarks scheduled to go dark include the
Great Pyramids and Sphinx in Egypt, Acropolis in Greece, Broadway Theater
marquees, etc. Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and
businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into
a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights.
This year, however, Earth Hour has been transformed from being just a sign of
solidarity regarding energy conservation, to a “global vote.” The organizers of this
year’s event are publicizing participation in the event as a vote “For Earth and Against
Global Warming”. According to Earth Hour sponsor the World Wildlife Fund(WWF),
“For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background
have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote—switching off your lights
is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging
the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be
presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen.
Some scientists are confident that the temperature increases we are experiencing are
all within normal heating and cooling trends that have been occurring for centuries,
long before industrialization was ever an issue. Other scientific bodies have stated
unequivocally that global warming is occurring, and people are causing it by burning
fossil fuels—and the only debate about global warming is about how much and how
fast warming will continue as a result of heat-trapping emissions. As a result of
this controversy, not everyone agrees with the message of Earth Hour—and at least
one counter-protest is planned for Saturday. Suburban Philadelphia ice cream shop
owner Bob Gerenser, 56, believes global warming is based on faulty science and calls
Earth Hour “nonsense.” The resident of New Hope, PA, and owner of Gerenser’s
Exotic Ice Cream planned to illuminate his store with extra theatrical lighting.
“I’m going to get everyone I know in my neighborhood to turn on every light they
possibly can to waste as much electricity as possible to underline the absurdity of this
action... by being absurd.” Despite the controversy over “global warming” or
climate change, I personally think that energy conservation is never a bad thing. So
the lights will go out in our house for an hour on Saturday, for no other reason than to
remind my family that at any time we can choose to reduce our energy usage by
simply flicking a switch.
正确答案： Conserving Energy: More Than One Hour a Year The article
above discusses this year’s Earth Hour movement to call for energy conservation by
encouraging people switching off their lights for one hour and vote for Earth to fight
against global warming. However, scientists and citizens who are convinced that
global warming has far been over-exaggerated don’t seem to appreciate this effort.
For me, Global warming is a real problem whose enormity and seriousness cannot be
underestimated, but there definitely are better ways to arouse people’s awareness of
conserving energy. Simply asking our parents how much warmer it has become
these years than the time when they were children we can understand what global
warming means to us. Plus, all those pictures and research studies on disappearing
icebergs, melting glaciers, and the desperate polar bears that have lost their habitats
are hard proof of it. It makes total sense that environmentalists try to arouse people’s
awareness, but urging everyone to switch off their lights at a certain time is too much
to ask. First, that one hour may be very important for small businesses and people
with special plans on that day. The inconveniences this event brings about might lead
to people’s repulsion and resistance in spite of its good intentions. Furthermore, if
energy conservation is only promoted once a year in this way, it’s very likely that
people only participate for one hour a year and go back to their daily routine of

1.The phrase \(A)
A. simile
B. metaphor
C. analogy
D. hyperbole
解析：修辞题。第二段第三句句意为：的确，这里肯定经常刮大风；只要看一看房屋一侧那几棵过度倾斜的矮小冷杉，以及那一排枯瘦的、全把枝条向着一个方向伸展，仿佛在向太阳乞求布施的荆棘，人们就可以猜想到北风刮过房檐的力量。此处本体是动作“全把枝条向着一个方向伸展”，喻体是“向太阳乞求布施”，比喻词是as if，故[A]“明喻”为正确答案。
2.What can be inferred from Para. 3 about the author?(B)
A. He found a date and a name on the door.
B. He had planned to express his opinions.
C. He listened to a brief introduction of the history of the house. D. He was welcomed to the house.
解析：推断题。第三段第二句提到，作者本想评论几句，并向板着面孔的主人请教这个地方的简短历史；但他在门口的态度似乎是要作者赶紧进屋或者干脆走人，而作者也不想在参观室内之前让他更加不耐烦。原文用了虚拟语气would have made a few comments，由此可知，作者本来想评论几句并向主人询问房子的历史，但实际上并未做出任何评论，也并未询问历史。[B]“作者本打算表达其意见(实际上并未表达)”符合文意，故为答案，同时排除[C]。该段第一句的后半句提到作者在门上一群残破的狮鹫和不知羞耻的小男孩中，发现了日期“1500”和名字“哈里顿-恩萧”，这在原文中直接提到，不用推断，故排除[A]；第二句提到主人想让作者要么赶紧进屋，要么干脆走人，这表达了主人不耐烦的心情，而不是欢迎作者进屋，[D]与原文不符，故排除。
