　　Nowadays,leaders the world over are busy mapping out blueprints for a new age with environmental protection high on their agenda. Sustainable development hits headlines almost every day. It is of utmost importance to restore the harmonious balance between man and nature,given the damage we've already done to it.

　　First of all, we must realize that man and nature are interactive.To begin with, we derive everything fromnature. Among other things,I'm sure you've all tasted natural produce that is otherwise known as green food. And you must have noticed that nearly all beautifying products boast of being natural creams,natural lotions or natural gels. For man,nature has an irresistible appeal.

　　But on the other hand we must also realize that nature can be unruly.Nature is indeed like a riddle,some areas of which are beyond the reach of science and technology,at least in the foreseeable future. Nevertheless,the advancement of science and technology will still characterize the next millennium. The coming new age will provide many opportunities,but it will be likewise run of challenges. For instance,United Nations'demographers predict that global population could soar from its current 5.9 billion to as many as 11.2 billion by 2050.This will aggravate the current scarcity of natural resources caused by environmental degradation.More conflicts over this scarcity may occur with the ghost of nuclear wars always hiding in the background. To prevent this nightmare from coming true,governments need to work closely with each other and back up their verbal commitment by actions. However, it is not enough only to ask what governments can do toachieve the harmony between man and nature. We must ask ourselves what we as individuals can do.

　　Can we all be economical with food,water,electricity or other resources? Can we,or rather,some greedy ones among us,stop making rare plants and animals into delicious dishes? Can we stop using the unrecyclable style of lunch boxes? If not,one day they may bury us in an ocean of white rubbish.After all,the earth is not a dustbin;it's our common home.

　　1."Green food"is a name we give to______________________.

　　2.Beautifying products boast of being natural because___________________.

　　3.What will the next millennium be characteristic of,according to the author?

　　4.The current scarcity of natural resources will be aggravated by_______________.

　　5.If we don't give up using the unrecyclable lunch boxes,they may accumulate to be__________________.

　　答案：

　　1.[natural produce]

　　[定位]根據(jù)green food查找到第2段第3句。

　　解析：原文該句中的otherwise表明natural produce和green food是同一概念，因此natural produce為本題答案。

　　2.[for man,nature has an irresistible appeal]

　　[定位]根據(jù)beautifying products boast of being natural及because查找到第2段最后兩句。

　　解析：第2段倒數(shù)第2句開頭的And表明該句與該段To begin with引出的第2句并列，因此，對倒數(shù)第2句的解釋不能在之前的句子尋找，而應(yīng)該在末句尋找，事實(shí)上，這兩句存在隱含的因果關(guān)系，由此可見，末句就是本題答案。

　　3.[The advancement of science and technology.]

　　[定位]根據(jù)nest millennium和characteristic查找到第3段第3句。

　　解析：從原文該句中的characterize和題目中的be characteristic of可以看出，原文與題目同義，區(qū)別只在于characterize和be characteristic of要求的主語和賓語位置互換，因此原文的主語即為be characteristic of的賓語，即本題答案。

　　4.[the soaring global population]

　　[定位]根據(jù)題干內(nèi)容查找到第3段第5、6句。

　　解析：第3段第6句表明自然資源匱乏的問題會因?yàn)椤皌his”而變得更嚴(yán)重，而this指的是該段第5句描述的內(nèi)容，從第5句可以知道this指的是“全球人口的急劇增加”，用原文的詞語可表達(dá)為the soaring global population。

　　5.[an ocean of white rubbish]

　　[定位]根據(jù)題干內(nèi)容查找到末段第3、4句。

　　解析：本題詢問如果不停止使用不可回收利用的午餐飯盒，不可回收飯盒最終會堆積成什么。從末段第3句和第4句可以推斷不可回收飯盒最終會堆積成白色垃圾的海洋，因此，第4句中的an ocean of white rubbish為本題答案。
