Chicago presented new studies showing how food and its production affect global warming.They offered some suggestions for how to eat in a more environmentally friendly way.For many years,scientists have warned us that our planet is getting warmer.If current trends continue,animals may start to die off and life could get very difficult for everyone.The temperature is rising because humans have been releasing massive amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere,which surround the planet and keep heat from escaping.One of these gases is carbon dioxide.Most carbon dioxide we produce comes from the process of making and eating food,the scientists reported in Chicago.The production of meat contributes to a lot of carbon dioxide.And much of meat’s contribution comes from beef,which is responsible for releasing even more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.The process of making a hamburger,for example,requires a lot of energy.A cow has to be fed and raised,and cow’s wastes are a major source of greenhouse gases.After the cow is killed,the meat has to be processed and shipped to a consumer,which takes fuel.And most of the cow won’t even be used for meat people eat.By the time a hamburger finally lands on a dinner plate,it has taken a heavy toll on the environment.It is believed that the process of making a half-pound all-beef burger adds about 19 times the weight of hamburgers in carbon dioxide.The message is clear:We can greatly reduce the production of greenhouse gases by eating less beef.Other kinds of meat like pork and chicken do less harm to the environment—at least in terms of the amount of greenhouse gases released.Nathan Pelletier,a scientist at Dalhousie University in Canada,reported that if everyone in industrial countries ate chicken instead of beef,we would cut the Earth’s greenhouse gases by more than half.All kinds of meat,the scientists reported,are harder on the planet than vegetables.To grow and eat a pound of potatoes,for example,sends less than one quarter pound of carbon dioxide into the air.So shifting our diet to less meat and more vegetables may do the world some good.36.The text mainly tells us ________.A.what we eat can affect the whole planetB.the way we live affects the environmentC.how we can save energy on the EarthD.how we can produce environment-friendly food37.What is likely to happen if the climate is getting warmer according to the passage?A.Sea level will continue to rise sharply.B.Human beings won’t have enough food.C.It would be very hard for man to survive.D.All the animals and plants will disappear.38.Why does the author mention the process of making a hamburger?A.To show meat is usually part of a hamburger.B.To illustrate that our food contributes to greenhouse gases.C.To prove making a hamburger is a complex process.D.To suggest a lot of energy is needed to make hamburgers.39.The author believes one effective way to fight global warming is ________.A.we should eat no pork and no chickenB.we should eat more chicken than beefC.we should eat not meat but vegetablesD.we should eat less meat and more vegetables40.Which of the following statements would Nathan Pelletier agree to?A.Eating pork and chicken is more environmentally friendly.B.Meat consumption is the main cause of greenhouse gases.C.People in industrial countries consume more beef than fish.D.Eating more beef is a more efficient way to save more energy.答案Ⅰ.单项填空1.D 2.B[burst(感情的)爆发。

(2019·绵阳市高中第一次诊断)German artist HA Schult is an unusual artist who uses trash (废物)to make sculptures.“We are living in the time of garbage,” says Schult.“I created a thousand sculptures of garbage.They are a mirror of ourselves.” Here,Schult was talking about his 1,000 trash sculptures in the form of humans.He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.“They are social sculptures,” he explains.“They are not only sculptu res for the eyes.They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage.” So far,Schult's social sculptures have been on show in Paris,in Moscow's Red Square,on the Great Wall of China,and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo.HA Schult's work is unforgettable.Although his work has had a big influence on the art world,Schult remains modest about his creations:“Artists have to learn every time.We are not important.All that counts is the time in which we are living.”Trash art has been around for years.But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash.Why can't common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art?Maybe it's because we all have our own preset ideas of what art is and isn't,or whom artists are or should be.You can be an artist like Schult if you try.Look at used metal cans.What might be done with them?Imagine them in any number of new uses,or imagine them simply as an art form.What about boxes or clothing? Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets.And clothing?Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organizers.1.What do we know about Schult's sculptures?A.They served as garbage containers.B.They reflected environmental issues.C.They were first shown in Paris,France.D.They were to raise economic awareness.2.HA Schult's artistic works also get the message across that an artist must ________.A.be socially responsibleB.be as modest as possibleC.make garbage recyclableD.take diverse artistic forms3.According to the last 2 paragraphs,the author probably agrees that ________.A.it takes talent to be a trash artistB.preset ideas are important to artistsC.trash art can't be seen as a real art formD.average people can also make trash artists4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Could You Be a Trash Artist?B.What Are Social Sculptures?C.Do You Know about Trash Art?D.How Can We Deal with Used Cans?【解题导语】本文主要讲述了一位德国艺术家利用垃圾创造艺术作品的故事,并以此鼓励读者行动起来,为环保出一份力。

think.Tipping,psychologists have found,is not just about service.Instead,studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiter’s choice of words,to how they carry themselveswhile taking orders,to the bill’s total.Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pock et by the end of the night.“Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker,”wrote Rick van Baaren,a social psychology prof essor.“These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimicks them.”So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups.He requested that half serve with a phrase such as,“Coming up!”Thos e in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers.Rick van Baaren then compared their takehome pay.The results were clear—it pays to mimic your customer.The copycat (模仿者) waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.Leonard Green and Joel Myerson,psychologists at Washington University in St.Louis,found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill.After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters,cabdrivers,hair stylists,they found tip percentage s in these three areas dropped as customers’ bills went up.In fact,tip percentages appear to plateau (稳定期) when bills topped $100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100.“That’s also a point of tipping,” Green says.“You have to give a little extra to the cabdriver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you.If they weren’t there,you’d never get any service.So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”1.Apart from service,how many other factors affecting the customers’tipping are mentioned in the passage?A.1. B.2. C.3. D.4.2.These studies show that________.A.tipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waiters B.pe ople who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics them C.the mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as those who don’t mimick othersD.mimicry makes the mimicker feel bad3.According to the passage,which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?4.We know from the passage that the writer seems to________.A.object to Mr Green’s idea about tippingB.think part of Mr Green’s explanation is reasonableC.give his generous tip to waiters very oftenD.support the opinions of Mr Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping课时作业(十八)Ⅰ.单项填空1.C 句意为:到他认识到已经中计的时候,再做任何事情也就不济于事了。
