Starting in 2012, now the global event that is celebrated annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving is the brainchild of 92nd Street Y, a cultural center in New York City and the United Nations Foundation.‎ As the name indicates，“Giving Tuesday” is meant to restart the charitable season and therefore observed by raising funds for local nonprofits and schools, organizing food and clothing drives, and conducting random acts of kindness. In 2015，700,000 people from 71 countries came together to donate D|S116.7 million in cash. An additional D|S1.08 million was spent on gifts.‎ While the easiest way to participate is by donating to your favorite charity, this day can be celebrated in many other ways too. You can give back by volunteering at your local shelter or food bank, or even by donating blood. If all else fails, a purchase from the growing number of organizations that give a portion of their sales to charity will do the trick.‎ But perhaps the best way to celebrate the day is by helping those nearest and dearest to you. Assist a family member with a simple chore like folding laundry, cooking dinner, or even reading to a younger sibling. No matter what you do, be sure to share your good deed on social media and inspire others to celebrate “Giving Tuesday” as well!‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了Giving Tuesday(“给予星期二”)这项慈善活动的初衷和做法，号召人们通过做各种力所能及的活动来献爱心。‎ ‎4．Which of the following has the shortest history?‎ A．Cyber Monday.　　　　 　B．Giving Tuesday.‎ C．Black Friday. D．Thanksgiving Day.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，Giving Tuesday出现在Black Friday和Cyber Monday之后；再根据第一段第二句可知，Giving Tuesday是2012年才出现的，而Thanksgiving Day(感恩节)的历史非常悠久。故答案选B。‎ ‎5．What's the main purpose of “Giving Tuesday”？‎ A．To persuade more people to shop online.‎ B．To make Thanksgiving Day enjoyable.‎ C．To encourage more people to do charity.‎ D．To get voluntary work better known.‎ 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词purpose定位到文章的第二段。根据第二段第一句可知，这项活动是为了重启慈善季，募集资金、食物、衣服等帮助有需要的人们。故答案选C。 ‎ ‎6．Why does the author advise sharing good deeds on social media?‎ A．To donate money to local schools.‎ B．To keep a record of one's experience.‎ C．To help people make new friends.‎ D．To make “Giving Tuesday” more popular.‎ 解析：‎ 选D　细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词sharing定位到文章的最后一段。根据最后一段最后一句可知，作者主张把做的好事共享到社交媒体上，是为了鼓励其他人来参与“给予星期二”活动。故答案选D。‎ ‎7．Which section of a website does the text probably come from?‎ A．Business. B．Lifestyle.‎ C．Education. D．Culture.‎ 解析：选D　文章出处题。文章着重介绍了一项慈善活动Giving Tuesday，这不属于生意、生活方式及教育，而属于文化风俗类，故答案选D。‎ C ‎(2019·成都诊断)Food blogs, celebrities, and nutritionists all advocate the benefits of eating organic (有机的) fruits and vegetables. But a new study published in Science Advances paints a more complex picture. While organic produce is likely slightly healthier to eat and, in some ways, more sustainable to grow, there are also downsides.‎ Organic fruits and vegetables typically cost more than conventional ones. To get a certificate as organic, farmers must meet specific criteria, including growing produce without the use of genetic engineering and chemical inputs. Without these methods, the growing process typically requires more labor, time, and money, a cost that is passed down to consumers.‎ It's true that in many ways, organic farming is more sustainable than conventional farming. But when it comes to environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas output and water loss, the comparison gets complex. Organic farms produce less greenhouse gas output per acre. However, because they are barred from using genetic engineering, pesticides (杀虫剂), and other methods that increase efficiency (效率), organic farms also produce an estimated 19% to 25% less yield than conventional farms.‎ ‎ While there isn't a whole lot of research on the topic, the few studies that do exist suggest greenhouse gas output and water loss might actually be higher on organic farms, on a per unit basis, says study author Verena Seufert.‎ In addition, while organic produce is likely more nutritious than conventional fruits and vegetables, there's not a lot of evidence to support the claim that these often slight differences influence consumer health. The same is true for the pesticide remainder. In developed countries, where pesticide use is tightly regulated, there's no scientific consensus on how these often slight differences influence human health.‎ Still, Seufert stresses that if you can afford to eat organic produce, you should do so. Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity. The real takeaway from her study is not that organic produce is bad but that the practice needs more studies to increase the yield without lowering sustainability.‎ But if you can't afford to buy organic produce, don't stress too much, particularly from a nutritional perspective.‎ ‎8．What does the underlined word “downsides” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?‎ A．Dangers. B．Drawbacks.‎ C．Benefits. D．Differences.‎ 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据第一段画线词所在句可知，虽然有机农产品可能稍微健康些，但在某些方面，也有其缺点。再结合语境和下文陈述的有机农产品的缺点可以判断，画线词应指有机农产品不好的一面，B项意为“缺点”，故B项正确。‎ ‎9．Which key factor makes it hard to compare organic farming with conventional farming when it comes to environmental concerns?‎ A．The yield. B．The price.‎ C．The water loss. D．The labor.‎ 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第三段第二句可知，当涉及诸如温室气体排放和水资源损失等环境问题时，比较传统农业和有机农业就困难了；且根据第三段的其他内容可知，虽然有机农业与传统农业相比更可持续，但因为不能使用基因工程技术、杀虫剂及其他提高效率的方法，有机农业的产量相对低，故产量是使得两者之间的比较变得困难的重要因素，故A项正确。‎ ‎10．Which of the following will the author most probably agree with?‎ A．Farmers' work environment should be improved.‎ B．Organic produce should be made more efficiently.‎ C．It isn't wise for consumers to buy organic products.‎ D．The pesticide remainder do no harm to people's health.‎ 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第三段第四句可知，由于禁止使用基因工程技术和杀虫剂等，有机农场的产量估计会比传统农场的产量低19%至25%。据此可以判断，应当提高有机农业的生产效率，故B项正确。倒数第二段的最后一句亦是提示。‎ ‎11．In the author's opinion, why should we support organic produce?‎ A．It's environmentally friendly.‎ B．It's more nutritious.‎ C．It helps keep the variety of plants.‎ D．It's safer for consumers.‎ 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段第二句“Organic farms provide safer work environments for workers, plus they support great biodiversity.”‎ 可知，有机农场为工人提供更安全的工作环境，而且有机农场有助于保持生物多样性。据此可以判断，我们应当提倡有机农产品的原因之一是能保持生物的多样性，故C项正确。‎ Ⅱ.阅读七选五 ‎(2019·成都市毕业班摸底测试)Everyone dreams.
