water out of air could become the greatest househo1d invention since the microwave.using the same technology as a dehumidifier（除湿器），the water mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water because it can always get it from an unlimited sourcethe airthe company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water indeveloped countries, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortagethe machine works by drawing in wet air through a filter（过滤器）and over a cooling instrument which changes it into water dropletsit can produce up to 1 2 liters a daythe water mill will also produce more water when storms pass over, as the amount of water which is contained in the air increases. in keeping with its eco-development, the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three lights.inventor jonathan ritchey said: “the demand for water is off the chart. so people are looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable.”the machine, which is about 3 feet wide, is likely to cost 800 when it goes on sale here in the spring. its maker, canadian firm element four, roughly calculates that a litre of water cost around 20p to produce.environmentalists state that half the worlds population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080. one in five is said to lack access to safe drinking.the water mill is not effective in areas where the amount of water contained in the air is below about 30 percent, but in britain that wont be much of a problem.56what does the underlined word “it” refer do?adrinking water.binvention.cmicrowave.dwater mill.57what do we learn about the machine?ait works in the same way as microwaves.bit is very expensive for families to afford.cit absorbs steam and turns it into water.dit helps to make the water clean to drink.58what does the passage lead us to believe?athe cost of water will go up.bbottled water will disappear sooner.cthe machine is energy saving.dthe machine will be popular worldwide.59whats the best title for the passage?aa new way to solve water problem.ba machine to make water out of air.ca dehumidifier to produce water.dan absolutely new inventionbamong all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. sometimes its a hot topic discussed by people. the greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. and to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. but if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. in addition, human life span(寿命)can be prolonged. gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. some families, with the english imperial(皇帝的)family being a good example, have hereditary(遗传的)diseases. this means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. in the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. but gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. scientists just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born. some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture(生产)human beings in large quantities. in the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep; therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. but i believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.60. what does these two killers in the second paragraph refer to? a. gene technology and another treatment of the two diseases. b. the two murderers who killed the cloned baby. c. the two diseases of cancer and heart disease. d. hereditary diseases and cancer.61. whats the main idea of the third paragraph? a. gene technology can help people to give birth to a baby. b. gene technology can be used to clone human babies. c. how gene technology can be used to treat hereditary diseases. d. gene technology can solve all the problems of the english imperial family.62. in what way can gene technology help to treat hereditary diseases? a. gene technology helps people with hereditary diseases to live longer. b. using gene technology, scientists find the wrong gene and correct it. c. using gene technology, human babies can be cloned. d. doctors can cure cancer and heart disease with the help of gene technology.63. what is the main purpose of writing this passage? a. expressing the writers idea that gene technology will benefit people. b. telling people the advantages and disadvantages of gene technology. c. telling the readers that gene technology will not benefit people. d. explaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanity.（福建省晋江市四校2012届高三第二次联合考试） cwith eco-tourism on the rise, eco-hotels are fast becoming the darling of the travel industry. these days, however, staying at an eco-hotel doesnt necessarily mean vacationing in a tree house in the costa rican jungle, although that is certainly a choice.the majority of eco-hotels fall into one of several categories: hotels and resorts that conserve ecologically important habitats; “green” hotels that reduce, recycle, minimize waste, and protect water; sustainable hotels that harvest food from gardens on the hotel property or get part of all their power from renewable energy; hotels that encourage community involvement such as guests taking part in trail clearing; and hotels that offer some form of environmental education to their guests.as such, eco-hotels are a various group. stylish urban hotels like the willard inter-continental washington focus on energy conservation whereas the rosario resortspa on orcas island in washington state offers a wildly popular “green” vacation package where guests can “take a hike, clear a trail”.no matter what you call them, eco-hotel, eco-lodge, eco-resort, or green hotel, theyre part of the “greening” of the tourism industry.part of what drives this greening of the hotel industry is no doubt competition. going green is yet another way to distinguish a hotel from the mass of other excellent hotels that consumers have to choose from. but for many hotels, its also part of their philosophy. with the concept of “going green” firmly rooted in consumers minds, eco-hotels have taken it to the next level, and whether or not money is the driving factor behind the greening of the hotel industry doesnt matter so much as its good for the planet.64. the underlined part in the first paragraph means _.a. lovers like staying at an eco-hotel when travelingb. eco-hotels are very much loved by the travel industryc. people choose to stay in a tree house while vacationingd. romantic love stories often happen in eco-hotels65. according to the passage, which of the following can be part of the idea of eco-hotel?a. it has wall of glass.b. it is comfortable and fashionable.c. it uses renewable energy.d. its home to endangered species.66. from the passage, we know the rosario resortspa is a kind of hotel that_.a. conserves ecologically important habitats.b. encourages its guests to participate in its greening activities.c. harvests food from its own garden on its propertyd. has courses on the environment for its guests.67. people who choose to stay at eco-hotels _.a. love to take a hikeb. enjoy the green atmospherec. have environmental awareness. d. want to live comfortably dscientists have found that human eyes are more likely to be damaged by uv rays (紫外线) while skiing in the snow-covered areas than sitting on the beach, according to a report by the uk newspaper the telegraph.the researchers at kanazawa medical university, japan and american company johnson conducted the study together. they looked at the effects of light reflection on newly fallen snow on a ski trail (a rough path) in ishikawa district, northern japan. they compared the results with the levels of uv rays on a sand beach in southern japans okinawa district. they found that on the beach, eyes are exposed to a daily 260 kilojoules (千焦耳) of uv a square meter compared to 658 kilojoules in snow-covered areas.the findings are supported by the japan meteorological agency. according to the agency, the reflection rate of uv light on beaches is often between 10 and 25 percent, compared to 80 percent in the new snow areas. the amount of light increased 4 percent with a 300-meter rise in height.most of us know that uv rays can harm the skin. thats why we wear sunscreen on our skin before we get out in the sun. but many of us may not realize that uv rays are also harmful to the eyes.if your eyes are exposed to large amounts of uv radiation over a short period of time, you may experience a kind of sunburn of the eye, which is harmful. your eyes will become red and feel a strange feeling. they may be sensitive to light. fortunately, this is usually temporary and seldom causes permanent damage to the eyes.long-term exposure to uv radiation, however, can be more serious. scientific studies and researches have shown that exposure to small amounts of uv radiation over a period of many years increases the chance of eye damage, which could lead to total blindness.68. you would most likely find the article in _.a. a medical magazine b. a travel journal c. a doctors diaryd. a physics textbook69. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. too much eye exposure to uv rays may cause total blindness.b. short-time exposure of the eyes to uv rays doesnt harm them at all.c. most people know that uv rays harm the eyes as well as the skin.d. the study was conducted by researchers from japan, the usa and the uk.70. the underlined word sunscreen in paragraph 5 most probably means _.a. sunglasses b. suncream c. sunhat d. sunburn71. what will the passage most probably talk about next?a. never ski on newly fallen snow in japan.b. take some measures to protect your eyes while skiing in new snow areas.c. wearing a hat can provide protection while skiing in new snow areas.d. go to hospital to have your eyes examined. eif women are mercilessly exploited(剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame. because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. many women spend large sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time changing their old-fashioned dresses. skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.no one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. fashion designers are rarely concerned with necessary things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). they are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. there can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or picking her way through deep snow
