Some early recycling programs waste resources and lead to new trash. But the situation has improved as cities have gained experience. If managed correctly, recycling programs should cost cities and taxpayers less than garbage disposal for any given amount of material. Even though the benefits of recycling over disposal are various, individuals should keep in mind that it better serves the environment to reduce and reuse materials before recycling even bees an option.（1）John Tierney thought that recycling ___________. a waste of money to a lack of employers beneficial to the environment bee popular in the future（2）What39。 Environmental groups were quick to respond to Tierney by issuing reports detailing the benefits of recycling and showing how municipal (市政的) recycling programs reduce pollution and the use of resources while decreasing the amount of garbage and the need for landfill space — all for less, not more, than the cost of regular garbage collection and disposal(處置). 8．閱讀理解 故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“BitGym is also a smart virtual fitness app.”可知，你會(huì)接觸到虛擬的自然美景。由此推知，劃線(xiàn)詞的意思是“利益，好處”，故選B。 （2）考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第二段中的“This program helps you feel less threatened (受到威脅的) by targeting your specific stressors and then adjusts based on your interaction with the app.”可知，在第二段中提到Fitness Evolved的目的是為了展示衛(wèi)生技術(shù)是如何構(gòu)建的。作者對(duì)此進(jìn)行了舉例說(shuō)明。健身房和健身俱樂(lè)部不再局限于“四壁”。Another example is Zwift, an online multiplayer video game besed on indoor cycling. It allows you to join an online cycling group that includes members from over 150 countries. BitGym is also a smart virtual fitness app. As you train, you39。 s more, health technology is often built using principles of neuroscience, a science focused on studying the brain, Fitness Evolved, for example, focuses on stress and how you react to different stressors. This program helps you feel less threatened (受到威脅的) by targeting your specific stressors and then adjusts based on your interaction with the app. Today different online exercise programs are challenging the concept of traditional fitness models. Gyms and health clubs are no longer limited to “the four walls”. Digital extensions of traditional fitness are appearing, and to reach as many people as possible, the fitness industry is expanding its boundaries through virtual (虛擬的) fitness and accepting the latest scientific findings and technological advancements in health, technology. 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和主旨大意兩個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇人生感悟類(lèi)閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案?！弊罘衔恼轮行?。以及下文中作者將那次對(duì)家庭度假的價(jià)值的認(rèn)知，付諸實(shí)踐到自己的家庭生活中。 （3）考查主旨大意。故D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Involving the kids in planning the vacation makes sure that they have a great vacation too.”讓孩子們參與計(jì)劃假期，確保他們也有一個(gè)美好的假期。故選C。根據(jù)第一段中的“When I was a boy, my parents and I traveled from New York City to the Pennsylvania countryside for a weeklong taste of rural life.”當(dāng)我還是個(gè)男孩的時(shí)候，我的父母和我從紐約到賓夕法尼亞的鄉(xiāng)村旅行了一周，體驗(yàn)鄉(xiāng)村生活。這讓作者在后來(lái)給自己的家庭計(jì)劃假期的時(shí)候，也讓家人們參與其中，這樣確保每個(gè)人都有一個(gè)美好的假期。 Each year, setting aside vacation time to spend together is especially important to us. A relaxing environment opens the doors to all kinds of conversations—deep, silly or meaningful. There39。 Decades later I still have vivid memories of that trip which made me realize the value of a vacation, of seeing new things, meeting new people and sharing memorable experiences with family members. To this day, I still consider that family trip when I plan to take time off with my wife and kids. Vacations are a time for resting and connecting.

In our busy lives, family is what we should be saving our money and time for.6．閱讀理解 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】考查閱讀理解。A、C兩個(gè)選項(xiàng)說(shuō)的是主動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)，文中沒(méi)有提到，D選項(xiàng)說(shuō)被動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)在學(xué)者中不會(huì)出現(xiàn)，這和最后一段第一句故選A。It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and ，有時(shí)候甚至是傳聞或者謠言。通過(guò)第三段最后一句Typically, the original message has ，信息原始的意思已經(jīng)改變了。s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday munication with friends and coworkers可知這我們依賴(lài)的是前句所提的被動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)，故選D。 （2）推理判斷題。 （1）推理判斷題。Passive learning is not found among scholars.【答案】 （1）C（2）D（3）A（4）B 【解析】【分析】短文大意：本文主要主要介紹了被動(dòng)獲得知識(shí)所存在的一個(gè)嚴(yán)重的問(wèn)題——被告知的可能是謠言。Active learning occurs more frequently.B.Active learning is less important.To show that people may have problems with their sense of hearing.D.To show that a message may be changed when being passed on.B.D.C.B.Doing scientific reasoning（2）What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 2 refers to?
