一、閱讀理解(1-20)

Where do pesticides(殺蟲劑)fit into the picture of environmental disease? We have seen that they now pollute soil, water, and food, that they have the power to make our streams fishless and our gardens and woodlands silent and birdless. Man, however much he may like to pretend the contrary, is part of nature. Can he escape a pollution that is now so thoroughly distributed throughout our world?

We know that even single exposures to these chemicals, if the amount is large enough, can cause extremely severe poisoning. But this is not the major problem. The sudden illness or death of farmers, farm workers, and others exposed to sufficient quantities of pesticides is very sad and should not occur. For the population as a whole, we must be more concerned with the delayed effects of absorbing small amounts of the pesticides that invisibly pollute our world.

Responsible public health officials have pointed out that the biological effects of chemicals are cumulative over long periods of time, and that the danger to the inpidual may depend on the sum of the exposures received throughout his lifetime. For these very reasons the danger is easily ignored. It is human nature to shake off what may seem to us a threat of future disaster. "Men are naturally most impressed by diseases which have obvious signs," says a wise physician, Dr.Rene Dubos, "yet some of their worst enemies slowly approach them unnoticed."

1. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the sentence "Man, ... is part of nature."(Line 3,Para.1)?

A. Man appears indifferent to what happens in nature.

B. Man acts as if he does not belong to nature.

C. Man can avoid the effects of environmental pollution.

D. Man can escape his responsibilities for environmental protection.

答案：B。詞匯題。答題關(guān)鍵在于正確理解"like to pretend the contrary"幾個(gè)詞的含義，這幾個(gè)詞字面原意為：喜歡假裝相反。把它與原句結(jié)合起來看，這一句的意思是：人類，盡管常常表現(xiàn)得恰好相反，卻是自然的一部分。據(jù)此句意來套四個(gè)選擇項(xiàng)，就可看出B)(人類表現(xiàn)得好像他不屬于自然)是正確答案。

2. What is the author's attitude towards the environmental effects of pesticides?

A. Pessimistic.

B. Indifferent.

C. Defensive.

D. Concerned.

答案：D。觀點(diǎn)題。本文就作者對殺蟲劑的環(huán)境后果的態(tài)度提問。縱觀全文可知，作者在文中一一描述了殺蟲劑明顯和潛在的兩方面危險(xiǎn)，提醒人們重視其緩慢的長期效應(yīng)，可見作者對這一問題是“關(guān)切的”D)項(xiàng))，而非是“漠不關(guān)心的”B)項(xiàng))。同時(shí)，作者在文中并未悲天憫人，認(rèn)為殺蟲劑的危害已不可救藥，所以A)項(xiàng)“悲觀的”也不符合題意。而C)項(xiàng)“防御性的”，在文中并無根據(jù)，因?yàn)樵谖闹凶髡卟⑽刺岢鲈撛鯓咏鉀Q殺蟲劑的環(huán)境后果問題，因此只有D)是最符合題意的正確答案。

3. In the author's view, the sudden death caused by exposure to large amounts of pesticides _____.

A. is not the worst of the negative consequences resulting from the use of pesticides

B. now occurs most frequently among all accidental deaths

C. has sharply increased so as to become the center of public attention

D. is unavoidable because people can't do without pesticides in farming

答案：A。推斷題。本題的答案主要見于第二段。從"But this is not the major problem".(但這并不是主要問題)及"..., we must be more concerned with the delayed effects...，(我們必須更關(guān)切由于小劑量地吸收無形中污染了我們世界的殺蟲劑而造成的延遲的后果)”我們可從中推斷出作者認(rèn)為“由于大劑量吸入殺蟲劑而突然致死”還不是最糟糕的情況，故A)是正確的。而B)、C)、D)項(xiàng)的內(nèi)容在文中均未提及，所以無法判斷是否是作者的觀點(diǎn)，因而不能入選正確答案。

4. People tend to ignore the delayed effects of exposure to chemicals because _____.

A. limited exposure to them does little harm to people's health

B. the present is more important for them than the future

C. the danger does not become apparent immediately

D. humans are capable of withstanding small amounts of poisoning

答案：C。推斷題。本題可用篩選法，一一排除錯(cuò)誤答案。人們?nèi)菀缀鲆曃胗卸净瘜W(xué)物質(zhì)所帶來的延遲后果，到底是因?yàn)槭裁茨?先看A)：有限的吸收不會(huì)給人類健康帶來危害。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容可知，有毒化學(xué)物質(zhì)的生物效果是累積的，而且累積越多，危險(xiǎn)越大，因此，即使是有限的吸收，也會(huì)有潛伏的危險(xiǎn)，可見A)項(xiàng)內(nèi)容錯(cuò)誤。同樣D)項(xiàng)“人類能經(jīng)受住小劑量有毒物質(zhì)危害”顯然也不對。再看B)：現(xiàn)在比將來重要。根據(jù)最后一段第三句，人類的本性是會(huì)忽略將來的危險(xiǎn)的，但這并不等于說現(xiàn)在就更重要，所以B)項(xiàng)也沒有正確解釋本題中的原因。只有C)項(xiàng)“危險(xiǎn)并沒有立刻顯示出來”，符合原文意旨，特別是最后一句的句意，所以C)是正確答案。

5. It can be concluded from Dr.Dubos'remarks that _____.

A. people find invisible diseases difficult to deal with

B. attacks by hidden enemies tend to be fatal

C. diseases with obvious signs are easy to cure

D. people tend to overlook hidden dangers caused by pesticides

答案：D。推斷題。本題關(guān)鍵在于正確理解Dr.Dubos的評(píng)論。原句意為：人類很自然地最容易對那些具有征兆的疾病印象深刻，然而有些最致命的疾病卻是慢慢地毫無察覺地?fù)糁兴麄兊?。?jù)此句意，可以容易地推斷出D)為正確答案。
