【解题导语】 父爱无语。离别时作为父亲的“我”该向儿子说些什么呢？简短而又略显不得体的话“假如让我选择的话，我会选择你”让儿子深深地懂得了父子情深。

(2009年安徽名校联考)As a foreigner，I don’t know the situation in the US well. Seeing all kinds of recent shooting incidents，I think it should be controlled more strictly than no Somebody said that the person who has it in mind to kill another can do it without a gun，so the causes of murders are not guns but the trend of despising(蔑视)life in the US. And they also insist that there is no clear evidence that the increasing number of murders is connected with possession of guns，so the personal rights should not be restricted by the reason that there is not enough evidence.
Several months ago，I agreed with that partly. But as we know，the private groups like NRA have used the public opinion and persuaded the government to protect their profit. Other weapons such as knives，razors，bats are made for their own usage. But guns are made for only one reason－to kill someone. Of course，there are people who have guns to protect themselves from the criminals. But crime is getting more cruel and severe nowadays，so actually even if someone has a gun，it is impossible to guard himself completely.
As a substitute，I think，if the possession of guns is controlled more strictly，people can live safer lives than no There are other reasons to oppose the gun control，e. g. the possession of guns is historical inheritance (继承)and represents that people’s resistance will be against tyrannical (专制的)government，but none of them can justify and explain today’s serious situation in the US.
1. The writer’s purpose is to give his opinion about ________.
A. personal possessions
B. American culture
C. personal rights
D. gun control
解析：选D。主旨大意题。本作者主要就该不该对枪支实施管制发表意见。
2. Which of the following supports the writer’s opinion?
A. The causes of crime are not guns.
B. People are accustomed to having guns.
C. People can live a safer life without guns.
D. Guns are used for selfdefence.
解析：选C。推理判断题。从最后一段的第一句“. . . if the possession of guns is controlled more strictly，people can live safer lives than now”可知答案。
3. What is the current situation in the US?
A. The number of murders is rising.
B. Everyone in the US possesses a gun.
C. NRA has ruled over the country.
D. No evidence is available after a crime.
解析：选A。事实细节题。第一段就提到“the increasing number of murders”，故选A。
4. According to the writer， ________should be banned in the society.
A. knives B. guns
C. knives and guns D. knives，razors and bats
解析：选B。推理判断题。从第二段中“Other weapons such as knives，razors，bats are made for their own usage. But guns are made for only one reason－to kill someone”可推断出答案。

(2009年浙江稽阳联谊学校联考)The sun is the world’s most powerful energy source. The huge ball gives off more power than people could use. Solar power is electricity made from sunlight.
Solar cells are used to collect the sun’s energy. Each solar cell then changes the sunlight into electricity. There are thousands of solar cells on a solar panel (太阳能电池板). A few of these solar panels can make enough electricity for a house.
Solar power has many advantages. For one thing，it is clean. It doesn’t make any air pollution. Fossil fuels，by contrast，are dirty to burn. They give off gases that are harmful to breathe. Air pollution from fossil fuels may even make our climate too warm.
Solar power is also sustainable. The supply of fossil fuels is limited. However，there is an unlimited supply of sunlight. It can be used forever.
There are still some problems with solar power，though. Solar cells work only on sunny days. At night or in cloudy weather，people need another power source. Solar panels also cause space problems. They are very large. any large solar panels are needed to make lots of electricity. It would be hard to find space for them all.
Solar energy is expensive. Solar panels cost a lot to build. So solar energy costs twice as much as power from fossil fuels.
Solar cells are not that efficient yet either. They do not use all the sunlight that hits them. Only 20 percent of the light can be turned into power. The rest of the energy is wasted. People need to invent more efficient cells that do not waste so much sunlight. Then the cost of solar energy will fall.
Solar power is cheaper than fossil fuels in some ways，though. Air pollution from fossil fuels causes expensive damage. People get sick from breathing dirty air. Gases from burning oil also hurt plants，animals，and buildings. Solar power would save us billions of dollars in these “hidden” costs.
