举一反三
Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.
The contemporary environmental movement is often said to have begun with the publication of Silent Spring by the zoologist and biologist Rachel Carson (1907–1964). This landmark work, which took Carson 4 years to complete, diligently detailed the relationship between animal death and the use— now understood as the abuse—of man-made chemicals used as pesticides, especially DDT. One of the claims of the book that she tried to demonstrate was that DDT had the effect of softening the eggshells of birds as well as interfering with their reproduction, and that such effects would lead to their extinction if use of DDT were to continue. It would eventually create a springtime of silence when the songs of birds would not be heard. Her studies also found DDT to be a cause of human cancers.
Born in Springdale, Pennsylvania, Carson graduated from the Pennsylvania College for Women in Pittsburgh (now Chatham College), where she majored in English until her junior year, when a course in biology inspired her to switch to zoology as her field of concentration. She earned a master’s degree in this area from Johns Hopkins University and became a biologist at the Bureau of Fisheries in 1936. During this time, she wrote for various national magazines, and her first book, Under the Sea-Wind, was published. Carson had concerns as early as 1945 about pesticides being used more and more by the government. But her cautionary claims in Silent Spring were met with anger by the pesticide and chemical industries. Her authority as a scientist were challenged, and it was held that her findings were just the roars of a hysterical(歇斯底里的) woman. She was even accused of being a member of the Communist Party. Some go so far as to say that she told a lie .
But She is often celebrated as the founder of the contemporary U.S. environmental movement. Yet her work in Silent Spring, warning about the misuse of pesticides and other chemicals, has not as yet taken firm hold. Americans likely use twice as much the volume of pesticides that they did at the time she published her seminal work, and globally, their use is ever increasing. Powerful pesticides are sold over the counter, and their use is so widespread that many environmentalists are fearful that chemical runoff into streams and rivers is still popullting the animals that humans eat and the water that they drink.
In short, while the main purpose of Silent Spring was to warn the public of the dangers of the overuse of pesticides and chemicals, nonetheless the public hasn’t refused such use. Isn"t it time that we firmly said no to pesticides?

The band that wasn’t
Have you ever wanted to be part of a band as a famous singer or musician? Have you ever dreamed of playing in front of thousands of people at a concert, at which everyone is clapping and appreciating your music? Do you sing karaoke and pretend you are a famous singer like Song Zuying or Liu Huan? To be honest, a lot of people attach great importance to becoming rich and famous. 1
Many musicians meet and form a band because they like to write and play their own music. They may start as a group of high-school students, for whom practising their music in someone"s house is the first step to fame. Sometimes they may play to passers-by in the street or subway so that they can earn some extra money for themselves or to pay for their instruments. 2 Of course they hope to make records in a studio and sell millions of copies to become millionaires!
3 It was called the Monkees and began as a TV show. The musicians were to play jokes on each other as well as play music, most of which was based loosely on the Beatles. The TV organizers had planned to find four musicians who could act as well as sing. They put an advertisement in a newspaper looking for rock musicians, but they could only find one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three members of the band.
4 So during the broadcasts they just pretended to sing. Anyhow their performances were humorous enough to be copied by other groups. They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them. Each week on TV, the Monkees would play and sing songs written by other musicians. However, after a year or so in which they became more serious about their work, the Monkees started to play and sing their own songs like a real band. Then they produced their own records and started touring and playing their own music. 5 . The band broke up about 1970, but happily they reunited in the mid-1980s. They produced a new record in 1996, with which they celebrated their formal time as a real band.
A.In the USA they became even more popular than the Beatles and sold even more records. |
B.The Monkees’ television show stayed on the air for years after the group broke up. . |
C.However, there was one band that started in a different way. |
D.But just how do people form a band? |
F. Most of us probably have our favorite performers, stars or bands, but many of us also want to discover new sounds and rhythms.
G. As some of these actors could not sing well enough, they had to rely on other musicians to help them.

小题1: Peter is fond of delicious food and he also wants to have some wonderful tea.
小题2:Penny likes stocks and she wants to appreciate some world-class musicals as well.
小题3: Catherine loves reading and she is crazy about Sherlock Holmes.
小题4: Helen prefers to visit a city which has not only a long history but also modern scenes.
小题5: Lee is a big fan of water sports and sunshine.
A.FROM a skyline featuring both minarets(尖塔) and church spires to the call to prayer competing with music in a hip cafe, Istanbul is the only major city to span two continents. While it is known for sights dating back thousands of years, it also has a fascinating, and often ignored, modern scene that is finally receiving international attention. As a 2010 European Capital of Culture, the city is showcasing local artists in both historic areas and new museums — yet another example of how Istanbul is among the world’s most visually exciting cities. |
B.WUHOU temple and surrounding areas are interesting and fun to walk through. It"s worth spending time in a tea house, perhaps one in Renmin Park, because Chengdu"s tea culture is worth experiencing. Chun Xi Lu, with its fluorescent lights and frenetic shoppers, is a good place to see the more modern China, especially at night. But the real attraction in Chengdu, and in Sichuan in general, is often the food. The hotpot, while not as spicy as in Chongqing, is worth trying. It is the same with chao shou, or dumplings. Maybe you should head over to the restaurant section right now. |
C.SUNNY, fashion-forward, Sydney is an energetic city bent on making its mark. Sydney in particular is graced with wonderful weather most of the year. Many people are water sports fanatics and can be found on any given day enjoying the beautiful weather on the bay. Sports like surfing are being celebrated in their national birthplace. Boating or Sailing is another great way to enjoy the magnificent weather that Sydney offers most of the year. |
D.THERE are many different Londons, and they appeal to people with many different passions: museum lovers, theatergoers, devotees of royalty, people who like to walk in the rain. But richest of all, perhaps, is the London for book lovers.Skip to next paragraphBecause the city is the star and the backdrop of so much great literature, it is possible to believe you know it intimately(亲切的)— how it looks, how it feels — without ever leaving your home country, or indeed your home. But it is better to visit, if only for the joy of seeing the landscape of your imagination come to life. How thrilling it is to wander along Baker Street, where Sherlock Holmes once fictionally solved the unsolvable! |
F. MANY districts and landmarks in New York have become well- known to outsiders. The Statue of Liberty greeted millions of immigrants as they came to America in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Broadway theater district is a major center of the world"s entertainment industry. Anchored by Wall Street, in Lower Manhattan, New York vies with London as the financial capital of the world and is home to the New York Stock Exchange, the world"s largest stock exchange by market capitalization of its listed companies. The original Manhattan Chinatown attracts a flood of tourists to its busy sidewalks and retail establishments.
