【综合训练】【阅读理解】About 4 million children worldwide develop asthma each year because of nitrogen dioxide air pollution,according to a study published today by researchers at the George Washington University.The study estimates that 64 percent of these new cases of asthma occur in urban areas.The study is the first to quantify the worldwide burden of new pediatric(儿科的) asthma cases linked to traffic-related nitrogen dioxide by using a method that takes into account high exposures to this pollutant that occur near busy roads,said Susan C.Anenberg,PhD,the senior author of the study.“Our findings suggest that millions of new cases of pediatric asthma could be prevented in cities around the world by reducing air pollution,” said Anenberg.“Improving access to cleaner forms of transportation,like electrified public transport,cycling and walking,would not only bring down NO2 levels,but would also reduce asthma,enhance physical fitness,and cut greenhouse gas emissions.”Asthma is a disease that makes it hard to breathe when the lungs airways are inflamed.An estimated 235 million people worldwide currently have asthma,which can cause wheezing as well as life-threatening attacks.The World Health Organization calls air pollution “a major environmental risk to health” and has established Air Quality Guidelines for NO2 and other air pollutants.The researchers estimate that most children lived in areas below the current NO2 guideline.They also found that about 92 percent of the new pediatric asthma cases that were caused by NO2 occurred in areas that already meet the WHO guideline.“That finding suggests that the WHO guideline for NO2 may need to be re-evaluated to make sure it is sufficiently protective of childrens health,” said Pattanun Achakulwisut,PhD,lead author of the paper.Additional research must be done to more persuasively identify the factors leading to asthma within complex traffic emissions.This effort will help to improve the estimates of new asthma cases tied to traffic emissions.1.According to the study,how should the new cases of pediatric asthma be stopped?A.Invent new drug.B.Cut air pollution.C.Raise peoples awareness.D.Reduce electrified public transport.2.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Struck.B.Enlarged.C.Swollen.D.Broken.3.What do we know about the Air Quality Guidelines of WHO?A.The Air Quality Guidelines are not reasonable.B.WHO established Air Quality Guidelines only for NO2.C.The minority of childrens living environment meet the current WHO guidelines.D.According to the guidelines,92 percent of the new pediatric asthma cases are caused by NO2.4.What does the text mainly talk about?A.Asthma is threatening childrens life.B.WHO established Air Quality Guidelines.C.Air pollution is a serious problem nowadays.D.Air pollution makes children suffer from asthma.【概要写作】阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。Science cant explain the power of pets,but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure(血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack,reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings.For some,an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife.A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress(紧张) levels and blood pressure in peoplehalf of them pet ownerswhile they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic(心算) or held a hand in ice water.Subjects completed the tasks alone,with a husband/wife,a close friend or with a pet.People with pets did it best.Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates.With pets in the room,people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions.It seems people feel more released (放松) around pets,says Allen,who thinks it may be because pets dont judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits.Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs who were put on diet-and-exercise programs;a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program.On average,people lost about 11 pounds,or 5% of their body weight.Their dogs did even better,losing an average of 12 pounds,more than 15% of their body weight.Dog owners didnt lose any more weight than those without dogs but,say researchers,got more exercise overallmostly with their dogsand found it worth doing. 【应用文】假设你是李华,新年即将来临,你的英国笔友Jack和你交流新年的打算。你回信说你们搬入新校,为了更好地建设“绿色校园”,你打算号召同学们一起努力。1.多植树,美化校园;2.回收废物(瓶子、报纸等);3.节约能源。注意:1.词数80左右;2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。参考词汇:回收recycle 参考答案:【单句语法填空】1. 答案distant2. 答案is

Jack,Thank you for your letter and telling me your new plan of the year 2021.Our new school has been set up and we moved into it.In order to build a “green school”,I would like to call on my classmates to make it.First,to add beauty to our school,we are going to plant more trees on campus.Recycling is always the best method to protect the environment.So,second,we will recycle bottles,plastic bags and waste newspapers.Furthermore,we will make an effort to save energy at school.For example,we will turn off electrical appliances the moment they are not being used.I believe united efforts can make our school a real “green school”.Do you think so?Yours,Li Hua
