5、ading Compr(总题数:0,分数:0.00)The process of recycling can give things not only a new life but, in some cases, a different one. Glass bottles, for example, can become drinking glasses. First, the base is removed from the bottle. Then the bottle is turned upside down and the neck is attached to the base.
6、 The used bottle that would have been thrown away has now become a good-looking drinking glass. It is not easy to make this happen, though. The biggest problem is how to attach the base to the neck of the bottle turned upside down. Two South African businessmen, Sean Penrith and Philip Tetley, looke
7、d for a large glass manufacturer that could do it. But they had no luck. So they experimented for eight months. After many bottles were broken, they found a way. Their company, called Green Glass, won a Business of the Year award in 1994. It was voted among the best new businesses in South Africa. T
8、he inventors received worldwide patent rights to own the process they developed. More recently, the Green Glass idea has expanded into markets in Europe and the United States. Green Glass U.K. says on its Website that it now makes 150,000 glasses per year. The factory in Cornwall, England, employs 1
9、0 people. The company says it saves 90 percent of the energy normally used to make recycled glasses. The energy is saved because the glass is not melted. The glass is heated, however, to strengthen it. The Green Glass process takes about three hours to make a bottle into a drinking glass. The bottle
10、 goes through seven machines, all designed and built by the company itself. Broken bottles cannot be used. So Green Glass U. K. says it must find bottles anywhere it can.(分数:4.00)(1).What is the main idea of the passage?(分数:0.80)A.An Energy-saving way to recycle bottles into drinking glasses.B.How t

46、故 B错误。主语 some animals 应该是受到保护的,因此谓语应用被动语态;而 A,B 均为主动语态,故应排除。三、Section B(总题数:5,分数:5.00)6.Have you found your (lose) 1 watch?

48、eloping 解析 动名词 近些年来,人们越来越注重培养学生的创造能力。 put emphasis on doing sth表示重视、强调某事,介词。n 后面要求接动名词形式,因此此处应该填developing。10.If you look to the left, you will see a river of great (wide) 1. (分数:1.00)解析:width解析 句意:如果你朝左边看,你将会看到一条宽阔的河流。该题考查的是词性转换。原句空格中应填写一个名词作介词宾语,所以根据所给的形容词 wide,应填写其派生的名词 width。四、Part Reading Compr(总题数:0,分数:0.00)The process of recycling can give things not only a new life but, in some cases, a different one.
