Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. That means that we’re always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn’t like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid? That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.
Here are some other ways to help save resources (資源)for the society:
★Use the other side of the paper.
★Use rechargeable (可再充電的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.
★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups.
★Take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping.
★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.
And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.
【小題1】The underlined word "ours" in the passage refers to (指代) _______.
A．our societyB．our old things
C．our lifeD．our throwaway things
【小題2】According to the writer, if we give a second - hand toy car to a neighbor kid, we can____.
A．buy another new oneB．help toy business develop
C．make the family very thankful to usD．help save resources for the society
【小題3】 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．We should buy things that can be reused in our daily life.
B．We can exchange some things with others for further use.
C．It's good for us to throw away old things and buy new ones.
D．We are supposed to give the things we no longer need to our neighbors.
【小題4】What should we do in our daily life after reading the passage?
A．Try to throw as few old things as we can.
B．Use as many disposable things as possible.
C．Drink bottled water even though there is tap water around.
D．Buy everything we need instead of exchanging them with others.

【小題1】A
【小題1】D
【小題1】C
【小題1】A解析:
【主旨大意】：本文是說明文。本文介紹了節(jié)約能源的幾種方式。
【小題1】詞義猜測題根據(jù)下文內(nèi)容可知“拋棄社會”指的是“我們的社會”。故此處句意：有時候人們叫我們的社會一個拋棄社會。可判斷選A。
【小題1】細節(jié)理解題由第二段“Here are some other ways to help save resources for the society.”可知上文所提到的是為社會節(jié)約資源。故選D。
【小題1】邏輯推理  本文主要要講了節(jié)約資源的一些方式，提倡我們把自己不用的東西送給別人，我們可以使用一些可循環(huán)利用的物品。所以C 選項錯誤。
【小題1】主旨大意題本文只要講了一些節(jié)約資源的一下方式，提倡盡可能的把自己不用的送給需要的人，提倡我們使用可循環(huán)利用的物品，盡可能的減少浪費。
難句釋解: That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. 那就少買一個他們需要的塑料玩具汽車。
It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy show. 那也就少了一個需要生產(chǎn)，包裝與運送到玩具展的一個塑料小汽車了。

科目：初中英語 來源：2012屆浙江省寧波市初三3月月考英語試卷 題型：閱讀理解


Computers can injure you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example, if you fall off a bike and break your arms, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries slowly.
You probably know how to ride a bike safely. Now learn to use a computer safely.
Your eyes
Too much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be at least 50 centimeters from the screen. Remember to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.
When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect on (反射) the screen. If the window is in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.
Your hands and wrists (手腕)
Hand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long time, follow these three rules: 1) Rest your wrists on something. 2) Keep your elbows at the same height as the keyboard. 3) Stop something and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way.
Your back
Some people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in the wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you should sit with your back straight. The top part of the screen should all be in front of your eyes. Your forearms, wrists, hands and the upper part of your legs should all be parallel (平行) to the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every 30 minutes and exercise your arms, legs and necks.
Enjoy your computer, but use it safely.
