B．coinsC．people D．papers答案：D解析：依據文章第一段第一句中的carryingsomenewspapersunderhisarm及第五句中carryingthepapers________money可知仍舊有20份報紙，且最終一段最終一句中的lostthesaleoftwentypapers和該題呼應，故選D項。2．A.open B．heavyC．pure

D．So答案：B解析：依據其次段最終一句可知查德的賣報秘訣是趁著買報人還沒來得及看內容就抓緊拿錢跑掉，這說明查德宣稱的有最新消息事實上是編造的，故賈森的回答與前句相反，有轉折意義，故選B項。8．A.before B．sinceC．though D．unless答案：A解析：因查德宣稱的有最新消息事實上是編造的，故得在買報人發(fā)覺之前抓緊拿錢跑掉，before作連詞時，意為“在……之前”，故選A項。9．A.call B．dropC．sell

D．Universityprofessors.答案：A解析：細微環(huán)節(jié)理解題。依據其次段其次句中的．..andespeciallymillionsofgrass-rootsAmericansaretakingpartinthemovement.可知，數(shù)百萬的基層群眾是環(huán)境愛護的主要支持者，故選A項。3．WhathaveAmericansachievedinenvironmentalprotection?A．Theyhavecutcaremissionstothelowest.B．Theyhavesettledtheirenvironmentalproblems.C．TheyhaveloweredtheirCOlevelsinfortycities.D．Theyhavereducedpollutionthrougheffectivemeasures.答案：D解析：推理推斷題。依據第三段及第四段可知，降低汽車尾氣排放量，再循環(huán)工程的數(shù)量大幅增加，更先進的照明、引擎及建筑設計，這些都有助于削減污染。由此可以推斷，美國人通過實行一系列的有效措施削減了污染。故選D項。4．Whatisespeciallyimportantforenvironmentalprotectionaccordingtothelastparagraph?A．Education. B．Planning.C．Greenliving. D．COreduction.答案：A解析：推理推斷題。依據最終一段可知，25年前幾乎沒有關于環(huán)境的教化課程，而現(xiàn)在幾乎每一所學校都有這樣的課程，結合最終一句中的Untilwedothat,nothingelsewillchange！可知，在環(huán)保問題上，教化尤其重要。故選A項。Ⅴ.語法填空Thestoryaboutthemonsteris__1__(close)relatedtotheroyalfamily.__2__issaidthattheemperor'srobeshaveasymbolofagolddragonwithfiveclaws.Othermembersoftheroyalfamilywereallowed__3__(wear)dragonsymbols，too，__4__withfewerclawsand__5__adifferentcolour.Butinthewest，thereddragon__6__appearsontheWelshflagisapositivesymbol，__7__(indicate)asense
