　　.阅读理解

　　(2024·北京市东城区高三期末)Most of the 20th century has been a development on the Industrial

　　Revolution taken to a4n extreme: people now own more products than ever before; there are enough unclear weapons to destroy the earth several times over; there is hardly any forest left and pollution has got to the point where we buy water. Within a few years I predict you will be able to buy air. (There once was a time when you didn't need to buy food or shelter either. )

　　Important developments in the last century are the breaking down of the class structures left over from the Industrial Revolution stage, bringing with it the empowerment of the “common man”： the working day is set by law to only 8 hours a day; everyone has the vote; the media has less obvious government control; people have landed on the moon, sent spacecrafts to Mars and so on. Families have also shrunk drastically(强烈的); the nuclear family came about, and especially in the last half of the 20th century, one-parent families are becoming more common. This shrinking in the size of the family shows the increased independence of people—once upon a time people had to live in large groups to survive.

　　As humans have “become the gods”， they have realized their individuality and independence and taken their control of the world to an extreme. In many countries the land is almost completely used in the production of food and as living space and they live in small cities which are entirely human constructed, made from materials which are also entirely human constructed (concrete bricks) with hardly any remains of nature.Weeds are poisoned because they are messy; even parks have trees grown in tidy lines; grass is mowed to keep it short and so on. I think the massive drug “problem” troubling people is a result of too much of this influence, humans needing to escape the stark world they have created by entering fantasy worlds.

　　Over the last 100 years, the 20th century consciousness has spread throughout the world; most of Asia has been thoroughly “Westernized”，and most of the Third World is being overrun by Western ways of doing things and living.

　　语篇解读：作者通过本文告诉我们，随着现代社会的发展，人类对自然环境造成了很大的破坏，人们生活在一个枯燥无味的世界里……

　　1．What's the author most concerned about?

　　A．The influence of pollution.

　　of humans as gods.

　　解析：由第一段可以得出答案，即现代社会的快速发展带来了很多强烈的影响。这正是作者所担心的问题。因此B项符合题意。

　　2．What is the author's attitude towards the changes of the 20th century?

　　A．Objective.

　　答案：D

　　3．What does the underlined word “stark” in Paragraph 3 mean?

　　A．Unfair.

　　B．Illegal.

　　C．Dull.

　　D．Violent.

　　解析：unfair意思是“不公平的”；illegal意思是“违法的”；dull意思是“枯燥无味的；无趣的”；violent意思是“暴力的”。根据前面几句话中对现实世界的描述可知，C项符合语境，即由于现代社会的快速发展，世界变得很枯燥，完全脱离了自然的影子。

　　答案：C

　　4．What can be inferred from the passage?

　　A．Men's individuality is over controlled.

　　B．People have damaged nature too much.
