B.AswearesoaccustomedtoC.Accustomedasweareto

D.Accustomedasareweto参考答案：C句意：虽然我们习惯于将1927年以前拍摄的电影称之为“无声电影”，但是电影一词从完整意义上来说从来都不是无声的。分析句子成分并结合句意可知，本题应用as引导的让步状语从句，表示“尽管，虽然”。as引导让步状语从句时，从句要用部分倒装语序。故选C。12.—Theairwouldcertainlybecleaneriftherewerefewercarsrunninginthecity. —_____.

【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在《持疑的环保主义者》一书中，统计学教授约恩隆伯格抨击了环保主义者的“星球灭亡”说，他指出世界环境正在改善。8．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“BjornLomborg,professorofstatisticsattheUniversityofAarhusinDenmark,isanattackonthemisleadingclaimsofenvironmentalgroups,andthe“badnews”culturethatmakespeoplebelieveeverythingisgettingworse.”可知，统计学教授比约恩隆伯格抨击了环保组织的误导性言论以及让人们相信一切都在恶化的坏消息文化，由此可知，在《持疑的互保主义者》一书中，约恩隆伯格争论的是世界环境正在改善，故B项正确。9．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Theaccusationisthat,althoughtheenvironmentisimproving,greengroups—withprofitsofhundredsofmillionsofpoundsayear—areusingscaretactics(战术)togaindonations.”可知，有人指责说，尽管环境正在改善，但每年获利数亿英镑的绿色组织正在运用恐吓战术来获得捐款，故C项正确。10．词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“AccordingtoUNfigures,theareaofforestshasremainedalmoststeady”可知，森林面积已经很稳定，此处是说森林减少现象已经结束，由此可知画线词词义为“减少”，故D项正确。11．主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段中的“Environmentalistssaidourplanetwasboundtodie.Nowonemansaystheyarewrong.”可知，本文介绍了在《持疑的环保主义者》一书中，统计学教授约恩隆伯格抨击了环保主义者的“星球灭亡”说，故C项正确。19.It’s5:00inthemorningwhenthealarmringsinmyears.Irolloutofbedandwalkblindlythroughthedarkintothebathroom.Iturnonthelightandputonmyglasses.ThehouseisstillasIwalkdownstairswhilemyhusbandandthreekidssleeppeacefully.UsuallyIgoforalongrun,buttodayIchoosemyfavoriteexerciseDVDinsanity.Sweatpoursdownmyfaceandintomyeyes.MyheartracesasIfacemybodytofinisheachmovement.AsIneartheendoftheexercise,Ifeelextremelytired,butasmileisofmyface.It’snotasmilebecausetheDVDisover,butasmileofsuccessfrompushingmybodytoitsextremelimit.Somepeopleenjoyshopping,smoking,food,work,orevenchocolate.ButIneedexercisetogetthrougheachday.Someshakeheadswhentheyseemerunthroughthetown.OthersgethurtwhenIrefusetotryjustonebiteoftheirgrandmother’schocolatecake.Theyraisetheireyebrows,surprisedbymy“nothankyou,”orbymychoicetohaveasalad.Overtheyears,Ihavelearnedit’sokaytojustsay
