Do you know you could get sick just by walking past a building? The bacteria(细菌) that cause Legionnaire"s disease grow very fast in large modern buildings. They are carried by air through the buildings and outside. Legionnaire s disease is only one of the illnesses that are caused by "sick buildings".
Some buildings can make you ill because their heating and air-conditioning(空调调节系统) are controlled(控制). Air from outside cannot get in through the closed windows; This indoor air pollution is a growing problem.
Legionnaire"s disease may be the most serious result of sick buildings, but other unpleasant illnesses can appear.People who work in some buildings suffer （受苦）from tiredness, feeling sick and headaches. Their offices look bright and clean, but invisible(无形的) and dangerous bacteria are in the air around them.
There is an answer to the problem. The air-conditioning and heating can be tested for bacteria. Once the tests are finished, the sick buildings can be cured. This is expensive to do, but the results are good. The people in the buildings no longer get sick, and everybody is happier.

试题分析：本文介绍我们并不熟知的一种疾病叫做“建筑物疾病”。密闭严实的大楼可能会使我们不舒服，因为空气不流通，新鲜空气进不来。这样会使人们头痛，疲乏等。
小题1:词义猜测题。根据文章第一段第一句Do you know you could get sick just by walking past a building? “你知道你只是经过一个建筑物就会生病吗？”可知sick building指的是可以让你生病的建筑物。故选B。
小题2:细节理解题。文章第二段最后一句Air from outside cannot get in through the closed windows; This indoor air pollution is a growing problem.“外面的空气从关着的窗户进不来，这就使得室内空气污染。”可知室内污染是因为缺乏新鲜空气，故选C。
小题3:推理判断题。文章第三段最后两行.People who work in some buildings suffer （受苦）from tiredness, feeling sick and headaches. Their offices look bright and clean, but invisible(无形的) and dangerous bacteria are in the air around them.“在一些大楼里工作的人们遭受着疲劳、头痛的痛苦。他们的办公室看起来很亮很干净，但是却有无形的危险的细菌弥漫在空气中。”可知如果一幢楼里的人们有各种各样的疾病时，说明这是一个sick building。故选D。
小题4:细节理解题。文章第三段第一句话Legionnaire"s disease may be the most serious result of sick buildings,可知A正确；选项B文章没有提及；文章第三段最后一句话Their offices look bright and clean, but invisible(无形的) and dangerous bacteria are in the air around them.可知C错误；根据最后一段第二行This is expensive to do, but the results are good.可知D错误。故选A。
小题5:句意理解题。划线句意为：一旦测试完成，建筑物疾病就可能被治愈。故选D。 |
举一反三
You can be proud of yourselves, even if you can only make one or two of these green changes. The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely connected to the big problem of global-warming (全球变暖).
WAY 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks. You’ll get a 10-cent discount, and it’s one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won’t create more waste when they throw away a cup.
WAY 2: Turn off your computer. When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor (显示器) for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds.
WAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile.
WAY 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom. Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests. If every family replaced(替换)one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424,000 trees would still be standing.
WAY 5: Plant a tree. Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing. Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5, 000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year.
小题1:How many ways are mentioned(提及) in the passage?| A．Two. | B．Three. | | C．Four. | D．Five. |
小题2:What will happen if our PC is turned off when it isn’t in use?| A．It will help to save a large amount of money. | | B．It will help to reduce a great deal of CO₂. | | C．It will save the amount of oil that runs your car for a mile. | | D．It will be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees. |
小题3:Which ways suggest recycling or reusing of things?| A．Ways 3 & 4. | B．Ways 2 & 3. | | C．Ways 3 & 5. | D．Ways 2 & 4. |
小题4:How do these ways do good to our environment?| A．They all help reduce the use of energy like electricity. | | B．They all cut down the number of the use of paper. | | C．They all produce less greenhouse gases as a result. | | D．They all help protect our trees and forests. |
小题5:What is the best title for the passage?| A．Ways toSave Money | B．Waysto Be Earth-Friendly | | C．Ways to End Global-Warming | D．Waysto Limit Carbon Dioxide |
