Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently，Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunk or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship lots of Ooho bubbles without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events such as marathons，music festivals，and sporting events，where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied for a patent for their new advancement. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet，but they cost about two cents to create a unit，which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London，San Francisco，Boston，at conferences，festivals，and so on.Ooho is catching many people's attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1，000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer's interest when the production machine is running. It is quickly making a rise, so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。由于塑料瓶的使用不但浪費(fèi)金錢，還造成環(huán)境污染，Skipping Rocks Lab發(fā)明了一種可以食用的包裝材料Ooho。本文介紹了Ooho的食用方法，運(yùn)輸方法以及制作成本，并展望了其市場(chǎng)前景。1How is most plastic dealt with in America?AIt's sold.BIt's recycled.CIt's buried.DIt's wasted.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句“Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year”可知，在美國(guó)只有23%的塑料最終回到回收站，這意味著價(jià)值超過10億美元的塑料被視為垃圾。據(jù)此可知，在美國(guó)，大部分塑料被當(dāng)成垃圾處理了，故D項(xiàng)正確。2Why did the team invent Ooho?ATo make a profit for a company.BTo protect the environment.CTo make people eat as they drink.DTo reduce the cost of the plastic bottle.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段尾句“And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention”可知，由于塑料瓶的使用污染了環(huán)境，故Skipping Rocks Lab發(fā)明了一種可以食用的包裝材料Ooho，故B項(xiàng)正確。3What can we infer about Ooho from the text?AIt is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.BIt has become popular since it began to be sold.CIt might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.DIt cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第二句“The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet，but they cost about two cents to create a unit，which is cheaper than plastic bottles”可知，該產(chǎn)品的制造成本比塑料瓶低；據(jù)此可推知，該產(chǎn)品的售價(jià)也可能比塑料瓶低，故C項(xiàng)正確。4What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?AOoho is to be a success in the future.BOoho is being supported by smart people.COoho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.DOoho is being produced to attract more investors.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)尾段第一句“Ooho is catching many people's attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1，000 investors in only three days”可知，Ooho吸引了很多人的注意，在三天時(shí)間內(nèi)就得到了1 000位投資者的關(guān)注，籌集到100多萬(wàn)美元；再結(jié)合最后一句“It is quickly making a rise，so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future”可推知，作者最后一段想要表達(dá)的是，在未來(lái)Ooho一定能獲得成功，故A項(xiàng)正確。B(2019·石家莊市高中畢業(yè)班模擬考試一)At 9：30 am. on a Wednesday morning, I received a notification(通知) that I'd already picked up my phone 30 times that day! “11 left until you go over your goal of 41 pickups，” my screen read. “Put your phone down until 9：52 am.! Enjoy your time living in the moment.”These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks the screen time, created by Kevin Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction. He was working as an independent app developer, spending hours each day staring at screens. After work, Holesh found that he was looking mindlessly online instead of talking to his wife or taking his dogs for a walk.“I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone，” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh found that he was spending 75 minutes on his phone a day. He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I'd go and do something else. It was like something pushing me in the right direction，” he said. Holesh figured that if the system worked for him, it would work for others, and later that year he made Moment a free app. To date, it has been downloaded 8 million times.Besides, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive，for $7.99 a month.“I am so much happier, I sleep better, I read more, I take better care of myself, and most of all I am present in my day­to­day life，” Jack, a user said. Similar comments on Moment reflect a growing consciousness around “digital wellness”， the name given to lifestyle practices that encourage healthy device use.【語(yǔ)篇解讀】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，主要介紹了一種名為“Moment”的手機(jī)軟件，該軟件可以對(duì)超時(shí)使用手機(jī)的人發(fā)出提醒，讓人們合理使用設(shè)備。文章主要介紹了這款軟件的發(fā)明過程和功能，以及用戶對(duì)它的評(píng)價(jià)。5What does the inspiration of Moment come from?AThe creator's own experience.BThe sound made by honey bees.CComplaints from family members.DThe widespread digital addiction.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks the screen time, created by Kevin Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction”，并結(jié)合該段其他內(nèi)容和第三段可知，該軟件的發(fā)明源于Kevin Holesh自己的經(jīng)歷，故A項(xiàng)正確。6What does Moment do at the expected screen time?AMonitor the screen and keep a record.BMake a noise to remind the user.CTurn off the phone immediately.DForce the user to take a rest.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes” “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I'd go and do something else”可知，如果超時(shí)使用手機(jī)，則這款軟件會(huì)使手機(jī)發(fā)出聲音來(lái)提醒使用者，故B項(xiàng)正確。7What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4?APersuade readers to buy the app.BProvide readers with some advice.CRecommend a coach to the readers.DIntroduce more information of the app.D寫作意圖題。根據(jù)第四段的內(nèi)容可知，該軟件還具有“教練”功能，提供一些指導(dǎo)方案，讓用戶注意力集中，更有效率，并結(jié)合上文介紹的該軟件的超時(shí)使用手機(jī)的提醒功能可推知，在第四段作者旨在介紹該軟件的更多信息，故D項(xiàng)正確。8In which part of a website will you find this text?AFashion and Business.BSports and Entertainment.CHealth and Lifestyle.DArt and Design.C推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，本文主要介紹了一種名為“Moment”的手機(jī)軟件，該軟件可以對(duì)超時(shí)使用手機(jī)的人發(fā)出提醒，讓人們合理使用設(shè)備，擁有更有益于健康的生活方式。據(jù)此可推知，本文最有可能摘自健康和生活方式版塊，故C項(xiàng)正確。.完形填空(2019·沈陽(yáng)市教學(xué)質(zhì)量監(jiān)測(cè)一)Jayce began noticing when he was in kindergarten that he looked different from his classmates.
