22、 阅读下列短文 ,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C、和D)中 ,选出最佳选项。
To extinguish (熄灭) different kinds of fires, several types of fire extinguishers have been invented. They must be ready for immediate use when fire breaks out. Most portable (手提式的) kinds operate for less than a minute, so they are useful only on small fires. The law requires ships, trains, buses and planes to carry extinguishers.
Since fuel, oxygen and heat must be present in order for fire to exist, one or more of these things must be removed or reduced to extinguish a fire. If the heat is reduced by cooling the material below a certain temperature, the fire goes out. The cooling method is the most common way to put out a fire. Water is the best cooling material because it is low in cost and easy to get.
Another method of extinguishing fire is by cutting off the oxygen. This is usually done by covering the fire with sand, steam or some other things. A blanket may be used to cover a small fire.
A third method is called separation, which includes removing the fuel, or material easy to burn, from a fire, so that it can find no fuel.
The method that is used to put out a fire depends upon the type of fire. Fires have been grouped in three classes. Fires in wood, paper, cloth and the like are called Class A fires. These materials usually help keep the fire on. Such fires can be stopped most readily by cooling with water.
【1】If a fire breaks out on a bus, which of the follow should be ready there for you to use?
A. Sand. B. Water.
C. A blanket. D. An extinguisher.
【2】To cover a small piece of burning wood with a basin(盆) in order to stop the fire is an example of ________.
A. cutting off the oxygen B. reducing the heat
C. removing the fuel D. separating the fire
【3】In choosing how to put out a fire, we should first be clear about ________.
A. when it breaks out B. what kind it is
C. how it comes about D. where it takes place
【4】What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. Another type of extinguishers B. Another class of fires
C. How fires break out. D. How fires can be prevented.
23、Regardless of liking or disliking a book, a detailed and honest review will help people know about different kinds of books and find those that interest them. However, writing a book review is different from writing a book report. 【1】
1. Describe the Book
Write a few lines to describe the book. However, be careful when you are giving the description of the book, do not give away any plot twists and spoil the book for the readers. A better way is to refer to similar books. 【2】
2. 【3】
It is essential that you talk about what you liked in the book. You can talk about a certain chapter or quote. Some other things include: your favorite character, event, quote, and scene. After talking about all the things that you like in the book, it is time you talk about the parts of the book that you disliked.
3. Conclude Your Review
Conclude the review by summarizing some of your thoughts on the book. 【4】 When it comes to more facts and science-related books, you can talk about how the book is more suitable for readers.
4. Rate the Book
This is an optional part. You can give the book a rating out of 10. At times there is an audience who are in a rush, and all they want is to know the ratings. 【5】
5. Remember to Proofread
Once you are done with writing, proofread it and make sure your grammar and spellings are on point. Keep in mind that a review with language mistakes may not be taken seriously.
A.Express What You Prefer.
B.Discuss Your Point of View.
C.Mention them so the reader can get an idea of what the book is all about.
D.Below is a step-by-step guide on how to write a book review.

24、A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference.【1】
Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways. 【2】 After a while, it collects in the sea. And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradable — destroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead, it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time. The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants. 【3】 That means harmful material may get into our food supply.
【4】Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also works — where old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.
The report also calls on panies to improve methods for using plastics. 【5】And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a special reason to clean up the environment. But all of the companies must join to deal with the problem.
A.The plastic eventually reaches coastal areas and ocean waters.
B.But people can make a big difference.
C.Plastics should be gathered together and reused.
D.Then, fish may eat the plastics.
E.It is convenient to use plastic bags in everyday life.
F.It asks for them to better measure and direct plastic use.
G.The report tells about harm to sea life and what might be done to improve the situation.
