Meet Thomas Wilson. Thomas is famous all over the World. He holds the world record for sleeping in(睡过头). One weekend, Thomas slept in for two days, three hours and fourteen minutes. It was unbelievable. No one in history had ever slept in for so long before.
Thomas was very proud of his world record. His friends were proud of him, too. Whenever Thomas walked down the street, people always came up to him and shook his hand. Thomas was a star.
The only person who wasn’t proud of Thomas’s world record was his father. Dad didn’t like it when Thomas slept in. He complained that whenever Thomas slept in, the lawns didn’t get mowed. He was worried about how high the grass was getting. Every weekend, it seemed to get higher and higher. “It’s like a jungle there.” Dad moaned(抱怨) to Thomas one day. But Thomas wasn’t worried about the grass getting higher. He had more important things on his mind—— like sleeping in.
One morning, Thomas was woken from a deep sleep by a loud roaring noise. It sounded like a wild animal pacing about under his bedroom window.
Thomas rushed over to the window and pulled the curtains back. His eyes bulged like basketballs. “What on earth…？” He gasped. There, in the middle of the backyard, was a lion! “Awesome!” cried Thomas. Suddenly, a giraffe poked its head through the window. It munched the leaves from a plant sitting by Thomas’s bed. Next, an elephant walked past the swimming pool and squirted(喷出) water all over Dad’s car! “Cool!” cheered Thomas. “Now I don’t have to wash Dad’s car today.”…(选自《新理念英语阅读》)

Monarch butterflies from eastern Canada make the most amazing journey in the insect world. Each year, this butterfly travels about 3000 miles to its winter home in central Mexico(墨西哥). How can it fly so far and why does it make this long and dangerous trip. Scientists still don’t have an answer.
For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange-and-black butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to follow and study the butterflies. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one butterfly started its journey in Canada. Four months later, it arrived in Mexico.
The length of the butterflies’ trip is only one part of the mystery. Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in central Mexico.
How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place. This is an interesting question because only every fourth generation (代) makes the trip south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great-great-grandchild of the butterfly that traveled there last year.
Each year, four generations of a Monarch butterfly family are born. Each generations of the family has a very different life. The first generation is born in the south in late April. It slowly moves north, reproduces(繁衍) , and then die. Each of these generations of butterflies lives for generations are born, reproduces, and die. Each of these generations of butterflies lives for only two or five weeks. In the autumn, the fourth generation of butterflies is born. This generation has a much longer life. It lives for about eight months. This generation of butterflies makes the amazing journey back to the winter there, and in the spring they reproduce and then die. Their offspring will be the first generation of the next circle of life.
Today, people are still studying the Monarch butterfly. But they are not clear about everything.

Today’s world is full of plastic goods, from water bottles to car parts. We make plastic toys, toothbrushes, and shopping bags. Plastic is so useful that it’s hard to imagine life without it, but it has not been around that long.
The first plastic was invented in 1869. That’s when American John Wesley Hyatt made a form of plastic from a plant material called cellulose. Before long, his discovery was used to make combs, eyeglasses, buttons, and film.
In the 1900s, petroleum products such as oil replaced cellulose. New kinds of plastic were discovered in the 1950s, and that’s when the real boom began. People started to use plastic in many fields instead of the old materials. Plastics quickly replace paper, glass, metal, and wood in a growing number of products. In 1960, the United States made 6 billion pounds of plastic. By 1988, the output had grown to 50 billion pounds. These days, almost 10 percent of the oil America uses every year is turned into plastic. That’s 2 million barrels of oil a day.
Most of the plastic ever made still exists. Unlike wood, metal, and paper, plastic does not break down easily. Some people think plastic will never break down. Others say it may take 500 or 1,000 years. No one knows for sure because it has been around for too short a time. But if George Washington had used plastic water bottles in the 1700s, those bottles would probably still be around.
Although plastic lasts a long time, we don’t keep plastic products very long. We use them and throw them away. Only about 5 percent of plastic is recycled. A huge amount of it ends up floating in the ocean. Then seabirds, seals, turtles, whales and fish eat it. Scientists often find sea animals that have starved（饿）to death with their stomachs full of plastic. And every time it rains, more trash from city streets flushes into the sea. Much of that trash is plastic.
What can we do about plastic? First, be aware. Oil takes millions of years to form. Should we use up this precious fuel to make flimsy shopping bags that are used once and thrown away? Should any animal pay for our convenience with its life? Each person’s actions can make a difference. It’s time to act now.
1.What can we know about plastic?
A. Plastic is now widely used in every area of our daily life.
B. America holds the leading position in the world-wide use of plastic.
C. Plastic can last for more than 300 years and will never break down.
D. About 95% of plastic is used once and then thrown away.
2.Which detail supports the idea that plastic can be dangerous?
A. Animals starve to death after eating plastic.
B. Much of that trash is plastic.
C. About 10 percent of the oil we use every year is made into plastic.
D. John Wesley Hyatt made the first plastic from cellulose.
3.The underlined word “replace” in paragraph 3 means “______”.
A. Take the charge of B. Increase in value C. Take the place of D. Decrease in value
4.What might be written in the following paragraph?
A. Reasons about why we should use less plastic.
B. Criticism on those who make and buy plastic.
C. Tips for using plastic in the environmental friendly way.
D. Difference between using plastic and other materials.
5.What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Amazing Plastic. B. Dangerous Plastic. C. Useless Plastic. D. New Plastic
1.D 2.A 3.C 4.C 5.B 【解析】短文介绍了塑料的发明与使用，给人们的生活带来极大的便利，由于塑料长时间不能腐烂，会造成环境污染，给人类和动物造成极大的危害。建议大家都行动起来，对垃圾袋进行循环利用，加入到保护环境的行列之中。 1.细节理解题。根据短文倒数第二段中的句子“Although plastic lasts a long time, we ...查看答案和解析>>

A. hadn’t she B. didn’t she
C. did she D. had she
C 【解析】 句意：贝蒂今天早上没有什么事，是吗？本题考查反意疑问句。反意疑问句的构成原则是：前肯定，后否定；前否定，后肯定。由于前半句中有表示否定意义的词nothing，故后面的附加问句部分为肯定形式，并由had可知应用一般过去时态，在反意疑问句中用相应的助动词did引导，主语Betty为女性，故用she代替；故答案选C。查看答案和解析>>
