I was required to read one of Bernie Siegel’s books in college and was hooked on

his

positivity from that moment on. The stories of his unconventional

36 and the exceptional

patients he wrote about were so

37 to me and had such a big

38 on how I saw life from

then knew that so many years later I would look to Dr. Bernie and his CDs again

to

39 my own cancer experience?

I’m an ambitious

40, and when I started going through chemo (

化疗

) , even though I’m

a very

41 person, I lost my drive to write. I was just too tired and not in the

day,while waiting to go in for

B

In the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year.

Cell-phones

are

part

of

a

growing

mountain

of

electronic

waste

like

computers

and

personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster

than traditional garbage as a whole.

Electronic

devices

contain

valuable

metals

such

as

gold

and

silver.

A

Swiss

study

reported

that while

the

weight of electronic goods represented

by precious

metals was

relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (

含量

) of gold and other

precious metals was higher in

So-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.

Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are

recycled

and

the

harmful metals removed, the recycling

process

often

is carried

out in

poor countries, in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances

to escape into the environment.

Creating

products out of raw materials creates much more

waste material, up

to

100

高考真题及答案

times

more,

than

the

material

contained

in

the

finished

products.

Consider

again

the

cell- phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to

make the box and packaging(

包装

) it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing

process are harmful as well.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that

“the

production,

distribution,

and

use

of

products

—

as

well

as

management

of

the

resulting

waste

—

all

result

in

greenhouse

gas

release.”

Individuals

can

reduce

their

contribution by creating less waste at the start

—

for instance, buying reusable products

and recycling.

In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered

or

has

been

put

in

place

as

an

incentive

(

动机

)

for

reducing

waste.

If

producers

are

required

to take back packaging

they use

to

sell their products, would

they reduce the

packaging in the first place?

Governments’

incentive

to

require

producers

to

take

responsibility

for

the

packaging

they

produce

is

usually

based

on

money.

Why,

they

ask,

should

cities

or

towns

be

responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (

气泡垫

) that encased your television?

From

the

governments’

point

of

view,

a

primary

goal

of

laws

requiring

extended

producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste

management from the government and tax- payers back to the producers.

58. By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _________ .

A. the weight of e-goods is rather small

B. E-waste deserves to be made good use of

C. natural minerals contain more precious metals

D. the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste

59. The responsibility of e-waste treatment should be extended _________ .

A. from producers to governments B. from governments to producers

C. from individuals to distributors D. from distributors to governments

60. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. The increase in e-waste. B. The creation of e-waste.

C. The seriousness of e-waste. D. The management of e-waste.

C

Suppose y

ou become a leader in an organization. It’s very likely that you’ll want to have

volunteers to help with the organization’s activities. To do so, it should help to understand

why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.

Let’s

begin

with

the

question

of

why

people

volunteer.

Researchers

have

identified

several

factors

that

motivate

people

to

get

involved.

For

example,

people

volunteer

to

express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences,

and

to

strengthen

social

relationships.

If

volunteer

positions

do

not

meet

these

needs,

people may not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need to understand the

motivations of the people you wish to attract.

People

also

volunteer

because

they

are

required

to

do

so.

To

increase

levels

of

community

service,

some

schools

have

launched

compulsory

volunteer

programs.

Unfortunately,

these

programs

can

shift

people’s

wish

of

participation

from

an

internal

factor

(e.g.,

“I

volunteer

because

it’s

important

to

me”)

to

an

external

factor

(e.g.,

“I
