10、,满分 25 分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、 B、 C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 A In 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719 but nobody wanted to do it professionally.
11、The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy (识字 ) rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.” Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or just plain bad. I
12、n 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an 5 explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim were held up as moral touchstones. Today Dickens g
13、reatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon (名人堂 ) of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa. How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremel
14、y difficult to pass. Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to 1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of them. Its partly true that Dickens style of writing attracted audiences from all walks of life. Its partly that his writings rode a wave of
15、social, political and scientific progress. But its also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a distinguished writer. But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is p

They were difficult to understand. B. They were popular among the rich. C. They were seen as nearly worthless. D. They were writ
17、ten mostly by women. 22. Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress _. A. his reputation in France B. his interest in modern art 6 C. his success in publication D. his importance in literature 23. What is the authors purpose in writing the text? A. To remember a great writer. B. To
18、 introduce an English novel. C. To encourage studies on culture. D. To promote values of the Victorian age. B Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that hes an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall
19、off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Steins jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag. Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing n
20、umber of cities do not allow them at checkouts (收银台 ). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
21、 Among the bag makers arguments: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today. The ind
22、ustry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its 7 replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cot
23、ton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic. Environmentalists dont dispute (质疑 ) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years. 24. What has Steven Stein been hired to do? A. Help increase

26、dustry, Pollution and Environment C. Recycle or Throw Away 8 D. Garbage Collection and Waste Control C As cultural symbols go, the American car is quite young. The Model T Ford was built at the Piquette Plant in Michigan a century ago, with the first rolling off the assembly line (装配线 ) on September
27、 27, 1908. Only eleven cars were produced the next month. But eventually Henry Ford would build fifteen million of them. Modern America was born on the road, behind a wheel. The car shaped some of the most lasting aspects of American culture: the roadside diner, the billboard, the motel, even the ha
28、mburger. For most of the last century, the car represented what it meant to be American going forward at high speed to find new worlds. The road novel, the road movie, these are the most typical American ideas, born of abundant petrol, cheap cars and a never-ending interstate highway system, the lar
29、gest public works project in history. In 1928 Herbert Hoover imagined an America with “a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage. ” Since then, this society has moved onward, never looking back, as the car transformed America from a farm-based society into an industrial power. The cars that d
30、rove the American Dream have helped to create a global ecological disaster. In America the demand for oil has grown by 22 percent since 1990.
