Extensive green roofs use mosses, grasses and herbs, which are tolerant to droughts.These plants do not need much maintenance, can be grown in a layer of substratum (底土层) that can be as shallow as 1.5 inches, and generally are inaccessible to the public. In contrast,a wide range of species of plants are grown on intensive green roofs, such as bushes and even trees, which require deeper substratum layers, and are usually grown on flat roofs.They need intensive maintenance, and are usually areas that resemble parks which are accessible to people.There are several benefits of adopting green roof technologies. Apart from the obvious psychological and artistic benefits of garden like environments surrounding you, some of the common economic and ecological benefits are: a reduction in making use of energy; air and water purification; recovering green spaces; and the lessening of the heat island effect in urban areas.The green roof research that is currently ongoing is focused on evaluating the species of plants that are suitable to be grown on roofs, the method of establishment, nutrient and water requirement, substrata, and the quantity and quality of water runoff. The evaluation criteria of plant species are: at what rate they can be established; their ability to survive invasive weeds; tolerance of cold and heat; tolerance of drought conditions; ability of survival.Green roof technology is representative of a completely new market for landscape contractors (承包人), and all roofs that currently exist and the future ones to be constructed are the potential market a market that is too huge to be ignored.语篇解读:随着无休止的建筑对原本美好的绿色空间的日益破坏,绿色房顶概念应运而生。在屋顶种植绿色植物可以美化空间、净化空气、节省能源,好处不胜枚举。1Why do people think of the idea of green roofs?ATo save more space.BTo recover green spaces.CTo avoid being stepped on.DTo simplify the maintenance.解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第一句后半局部中的内容可知绿色屋顶的创意是为了恢复绿色空间。答案:B2. We can infer that _.Abushes and trees are less tolerant to droughtsBbushes and trees do not need much maintenanceCyou can't find mosses, grasses or herbs on flat roofsDpeople can get close to mosses, grasses and herbs on roofs解析:推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知苔藓、草以及草本植物可以忍受干旱,而灌木和树木与它们不同,需要保养,由此可推测灌木和树木忍受干旱的能力不太强。答案:A3We can learn from the passage that green roof technologies can _.Aproduce water Bbring more rainChelp save energy Dcause traffic jams解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中间局部的“.a reduction in making use of energy .可知绿色房顶技术可以帮助节省能源。答案:C4Who are most probably interested in this research besides the researchers?AHouse owners. BGovernment officials.CBusiness people. DConstruction workers.解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的内容可推知对这项研究最感兴趣的人除了研究人员之外还有“商人。答案:C.任务型读写No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people:as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage it if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and trains. How would you cope with it if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic?But there are other barriers:prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the ablebodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability that counts.Title:(1) The _(2)_ number of the disabled around the worldOver 450 millionSome countries with the disabledIndia:(3) more than _ the total population of Canada.The UK: one in ten people with (4)_(5)_ for disabilitiesSome are born with disabilities.Many others become (6)_ as they get older.There are many (7)_disabling diseases.(8)_ make people disabled.(9)_ to the disabled(10)_ in daily life. Prejudice and ignorance.以下为专用题型.阅读理解(A篇同)B(·皖南八校第三次联考)If a business wants to sell its products internationally, it had better do some market research first. This is a lesson that some large American corporations have learned the hard way.What's in the name?Sometimes the problem is the name. When General Motors introduced its Chevy Nova to Latin America, it overlooked the fact that Nova in Spanish means “It doesn't goSure enough, the Chevy Nova never went anywhere in Latin America.Translation problemsSometimes it is the slogan that doesn't work. No company knows this better than Pepsi Cola with its “Come alive with Pepsi ! campaign. The campaign was so successful in the United States that Pepsi translated its slogan literally for its international campaign. As it turned out, the translations weren't quite right. Pepsi was begging Germans to “Come out of the grave and telling the Chinese that “Pepsi brings your ancestors back from the graveA picture's worth a thousand wordsOther times, the problem involves packaging. A picture of a smiling baby has helped sell countless jars of Gerber baby food. When Gerber started selling baby food in Africa, they used the same packaging as in the US, with the smiling baby on the label. Later they learned that in African countries, the picture on the jar shows what the jar has in it, for many people there can't read.Twist of fateEven culture, religious factors and pure coincidence can be involved. Thom McAn shoes have a Thom McAn signature inside.To people in Bangladesh, which is a Muslim country, this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah. In that country,feet are considered unclean, and Muslims felt the company was offending God's name by having people walk on it.语篇解读:如何在剧烈的商战中立足?如何才能拓展国际市场?文章告诉我们首先一定要做一些市场调查。5From the text we learn that _.AChevy Nova was brought to Latin AmericaBGeneral Motors did the best market research of all companiesCPepsi still sold well in China owing to the translation problemsDthe “Come alive with Pepsi campaign worked well in the US解析:细节理解题。由文章Translation problems中的“The campaign was so successful in the United States可知D项正确。答案:D6What was Gerber's problem?AA translation problem.BCultural factors.CReligious factors.DThe picture on the jar.解析:细节理解题。由文章A picture's worth a thousand words中提到的“the picture on the jar shows what the jar has in it, for many people there can't read可知问题出在包装图案上,答案选D项。答案:D7For what reason were Thom McAn shoes turned down in Bangladesh?AThey are not designed attractively.BTheir advertisements are not persuasive.CA signature looking like the word Allah was in the shoes.DProblem For Thom McAn was the company's name.解析:推理判断题。由文章Twist of fate中的“this signature looked like Arabic script for the word Allah可知Thom McAn鞋在Bangladesh滞销的原因,所以答案选C项。答案:C8What does the text mainly tell us?ALessons from some large corporations.BHow to make use of advertisements. CThe importance of market research.DThe importance of packaging.解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文讲述了市场调查的重要性,答案选C项。答案:C.短文填词Nowadays a lot of schools keep their students in school all day long.Students have different oSome of the students think they enjoy lchances to get in touch with society.
