Wisconsin, also called “America's Dairyland”， is famous for its cheese. The state produced 2.8 billion pounds of cheese last year! As a result, there was a lot of leftover cheese brine. Disposing of (处置) the brine can be expensive. So what should cheese makers do with the waste Normally, towns use rock salt to de-ice streets. The salt lowers water's freezing point, causing ice to melt (融化). But using cheese brine could help both cheese producers and cities save money, while keeping roads safe. Cheese brine has salt in it, which, like the rock salt, helps lower water's freezing point. In addition to saving money, cheese brine could also be a more eco-friendly option. Many people suspect that all the rock salt used every winter is harming the environment. Rock salt is made of sodium chloride, the same compound (化合物) in ordinary table salt. Sounds harmless, right But while you probably add only a small amount of salt to your food, road crews spread about 20 million tons of salt on U．S. roads every year! The chemical washes off roads and goes into the ground. There it can pollute drinking water, harm plants, and eat away soil. By spreading cheese brine on streets before adding a layer of rock salt, Milwaukee may be able to cut its rock salt use by 30 percent. Cheese brine has a downside too — a smell similar to that of bad milk. “I don't really mind it，” Emil Norby told Modern Farmer magazine. He works for one of Wisconsin's county highway commissions and came up with the idea of using cheese brine. “Our roads smell like Wisconsin！” he said. ?好题不厌百回做，每做一次都有新发现 1．Why can cheese brine help keep winter roads ice-free A．It is soft. B．It contains salt. C．It is warm. D．It has milk in it. 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的“cheese brine, the salty liquid used to make soft cheeses”和第三段最后一句可知，因为奶酪盐水含有盐，所以可以被用来除冰。故答案选B项。 答案：B 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国威斯康星州密尔沃基市变废为宝，用剩余的奶酪盐水为道路除冰。 2．What is a benefit of using cheese brine on roads A．Improving air quality. B．Increasing sales of rock salt. C．Reducing water pollution. D．Saving the cheese industry. 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第一句和倒数第二段第二句可推断，利用奶酪盐水来除冰更加环保，比用其他化学制品更能够减少对水的污染。故选C项。 答案：C 3．Milwaukee's new way to de-ice streets may be an example of _____ . A．barking up the wrong tree B．putting the cart before the horse C．robbing Peter to pay Paul D．killing two birds with one stone 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的“But usin ... ...
