(2025·江西)You can put a stamp on it, you can write an address on it, and you can send it through the mail. No, it's not a package. It's the amazing coconut(椰子)! The coconut is different from most other fruits because every part of it is useful. People have been using coconuts in many different ways. Here are some of them.
One exciting use of the coconut is as a kind of energy. Scientists are working on using coconuts for energy because they are cheap and clean. Coconut oil has already been made into fuel. It can power cars, trucks, ships and many more.
Students at Baylor University find that coconut husks(外壳) can take in water very well. So mixing coconut husks with dry soil helps the soil hold onto more of the water. The students also find that coconut husks can take the place of plastic in some cases. If this is possible, it will help people use less plastic.
The husk of the coconut is a perfect package. It protects the coconut from harm. That's why some countries allow people to send the coconut without any packaging. Each year, tourists post about 3,000 of these "coconut postcards".
Coconuts grow naturally in over 80 countries of the world. They require only sun and proper rain. No special care is needed. Every year, more than 61 million tons of coconuts are produced. It is not surprising, then, that people want to find so many uses for the coconut.

B
)72. What would be the best structure of the passage?答案:72. B 【解析】通读全文可知,第一段总述椰子的特点,第二、三、四段分述其用途(能源、环保、邮寄等),第五段总结产量和实用性,故文章结构为“总—分—总”。
解析:
【分析】
做这类语篇结构题,首先要逐段梳理每一段的核心作用,从宏观层面划分行文逻辑:第一步先读首段,发现首段通过趣味引入,点明椰子全部分都可利用、有很多不同使用方式,是全文的总起部分;第二步读中间段落,第二段讲椰子可作为能源,第三段讲椰子壳改良土壤、替代塑料的作用,第四段讲椰子可以作为明信片邮寄,这三段是分别从不同角度介绍椰子的用途,属于分述内容;第三步读尾段,尾段说明椰子种植门槛低、产量极高,对全文椰子实用性的内容做总结收尾。整体逻辑是总起-分述多个用途-总结,对应总-分-总结构,匹配对应示意图即可选出答案。
【解析】
1. 逐段划分功能:
第1段:开篇引出椰子的话题,总述椰子全株都有用、存在多种使用方式,属于全文的总起段落。
第2、3、4段:分别从能源利用、环保应用、特色邮寄三个不同维度,具体介绍椰子的实用价值,属于并列的分述段落。
第5段:说明椰子种植条件简单、产量高的特点,对全文内容进行总结收尾。
2. 匹配结构:全文为典型的“总-分-总”行文结构,对应选项B的示意图。
【答案】
B
【知识点】
阅读理解篇章结构,总-分-总行文逻辑
【点评】
本题考查英语阅读理解的宏观篇章梳理能力,不需要纠结零散的细节信息,重点是区分总起、分述、总结三类段落的功能,理清全文的逻辑框架,能帮助学生建立从整体把握语篇的良好阅读习惯。
