Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.Dead SeaThe most famous of the lot, the Dead Sea—also known as the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): Bring some reading material to the waters and lie back—nature will do the rest.Lake AssalSurrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the centre of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.Great Salt LakeThe biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere, and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but also Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park, both offering super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.Don Juan PondDon Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but it is worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.21. What can visitors probably do in Lake Assal A. Read books. B. Have a hike.C. Enjoy small fishes. D. Take a bath in the lake.22. What is the Great Salt Lake famous for A. Its great parks. B. Its scientific value.C. Its highest salinity. D. Its specific location.23. Which lake is valuable for space exploration A. Dead Sea. B. Lake Assal.C Don Juan Pond. D. Great Salt Lake.BBesides “wow” and “great”, what else would you say when flying over the Earth in space Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian female astronaut in space, posted several lines of a famous ancient Chinese composition on Twitter to share her joy.She first wrote in Chinese, and then attached an accurate translation of the lines in both Italian and English to help more people understand. “Looking up, I see the immensity of the cosmos; bowing my head, I look at the multitude of the world. The gaze flies, the heart expands, the joy of the senses can reach its peak, and indeed, this is true happiness,” it says. Two days before she landed on Earth, the beauty of space and Chinese literature resonated on her Twitter account. Before long, her posts went viral on Twitter with thousands of retweets, likes and replies.The text she quoted is from the Preface to Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion,a Chinese calligraphy masterpiece by Wang Xizhi (303-361) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420). She also attached three photos taken in space of China’s Bohai Bay and the day-night view of Beijing. “The poem and views are both magnificent as well as healing. If everyone could enjoy the same sight, a lot of pain in the world would be ‘dissipated’,” one user comments.As the first Italian female astronaut in space, Cristoforetti carried out her first space mission on Nov 23, 2014. In 2022, she started the second mission in April and returned to Earth on Friday night after a 127-day stay in orbit.Cristoforetti has also been active in Sino-European cooperation in the field of manned spaceflight. She was a working group member with Chinese counterparts to define and implement cooperation in the field of astronaut operations. When not traveling for work, she is an eager reader and has a great passion for languages. Speaking clear Chinese, Cristoforetti once told the media that the teams from China and Europe were working very well together in the field of astronaut training.24. What is the result of Cristoforetti’s post online A. The birth of a masterpiece.B. A trend of journey to space.C. An instant hot issue on Twitter.D. Different translations of the lines.25. Which word below can be used to replace the underlined word “dissipated” in Paragraph 3 A Relieved. B. Caused.C. Increased. D. Recognized.26. What can we learn from the last paragraph A. Cristoforetti’s devotion to her career.B. Cristoforetti’s language learning strategies.C. The leadership Cristoforetti plays in her team.D. The possible motivation for Cristoforetti’s post.27. What can be the best title of the passage A. A female astronaut becomes online starB. A Chinese poem gets popular abroadC. Literature conveys the beauty of spaceD. An Italian astronaut promotes Sino-European cooperationCIn the 1990s and 2000s, Costa Rica and Panama experienced a rise in malaria(疟疾) cases. The massive loss of amphibians (两栖动物) in the region from a fungal (真菌的) disease may have contributed to the malaria increase.The spread of the fungal disease was a slow-motion disaster, leading to a decades-long wave of amphibian declines globally. From the 1980s to the 2000s, the wave moved from northwest to southeast across Costa Rica and Panama. An analysis of ecological surveys, public health records and satellite data suggests a link between the amphibian die-offs and an increase in human malaria cases.On average, each county had 0.8 to 1.1 additional cases of malaria per 1,000 people per year for about six years, beginning several years after the amphibian losses, Michael Springborn, an environmental economist of the University of California, Davis, and colleagues found.Springborn and colleagues wondered if the impacts that the fungal disease has on the decline of at least 500 species globally stretched to humans. The team turned to Costa Rica and Panama, where the fungus moved through ecosystems in a somewhat uniform way along the narrow area of land on which the two countries sit, Springborn says. The researchers worked out when the fungus arrived at a given place and then looked at the number of malaria cases in those places before and after the die-offs. Malaria cases rose in the first couple of years after the decline and remained high for six years or so before going down again for unknown reasons.Studies on the connections between biodiversity loss and health might “help motivate conservation by highlighting the direct benefits of conservation to human well-being,” says Hillary Young, a community ecologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara. “Humans are causing wildlife to be lost at a rate similar to that of other major mass extinction events,” she says. “We are increasingly aware that these losses can have major impacts on human health and well-being- and, in particular, on risk of infectious disease.”28. What directly brought about the rise in malaria cases A. The extinction of fungus. B. The death of amphibians.C. The spread of a fungal disease. D. The lack of wildlife conservation.29. What can we infer from Springborn and colleagues findings A. The number of amphibians dropped dramatically.B The fungus has little impact on human well-being.C. The county’s population multiplied after the amphibian decline.D. Malaria cases show relevant changes when amphibians became fewer.30. How did the scientists carry out the research A. By studying the features of the fungus.B. By comparing the number of malaria cases.C. By finding out the track of fungus’ movement.D. By working out the reason for the amphibian die-offs.31. Which statement is Hillary Young most likely to approve of A. Humans should keep wildlife at a distance.B. Humans cause the major mass extinction events.C. Human well-being is closely connected with wildlife.D. Human health has no relationship with conservation.DThe deep-sea oil and gas industry has vast and costly facilities to maintain. Wells, other equipment, and thousands of kilometers of pipelines must be inspected and repaired.Now, cutting-edge underwater drones(无人机)and robots are being developed that could make the work safer and cheaper. Among them is Eelume, a six-meter-long, snake-like robot equipped with sensors and a camera at each end. It can be kept at a station at depths of up to half a kilometer for six months, without being brought back to the surface. The robot can travel up to 20 kilometers before needing to return to its station to recharge.Maintenance work at many deep-water wells and pipeline systems is already carried out by unmanned vehicles. But these vehicles typically need to be transported to the offshore site on a fully crewed ship and then remotely operated from onboard the surface ship. That can cost up to $100,000 per day, according to P l Liljeb ck, chief technology officer with Eelume Subsea Intervention, which developed the robot. Liljeb ck says that by “enabling the robot to become a subsea resident living at a station, it can be mobilized at any time to do inspections, thereby reducing the need for costly surface ships”.Eelume can work autonomously on tasks assigned from a control room onshore, and send back video and data. Its snake-like design allows it to work in small spaces and wriggle(扭动)its body to stay in place in strong currents. By staying under the sea, it can carry out tasks whatever the conditions on the surface of the ocean.The global underwater robotics market is expected to be worth around $7 billion in 2025, according to analysts, and other companies are in the process of commercializing new deep-sea drone and robot technology. Eelume Subsea Intervention will carry out final testing on the seabed later this year at the sgard oil and gas field. It expects to put its first snake robots into use next year and hopes to have up to 50 in oceans around the world by 2027.32. What is one feature of Eelume A. It can travel nearly 40 kilometers before recharging. B. It can dive as deep as 1000 meters.C. It works mainly around the station. D. It works for 6 months on one charge.33. What is the problem with unmanned vehicles A. They are too costly to maintain.B. They are hard to operate remotely.C. They require transportation to and from work.D. They have to work on a fully crewed ship all the time.34. What can be expected of Eelume in the future A. It will require no further tests. B. It will be worth around $ 7 billion.C. It will be put on the market in 2027. D. It will possibly face some competitors.35. What is the main idea of the passage A. A snake robot is on its way for underwater tasks.B. Eelume is the new choice for constructing pipelines.C. Maintenance work on the ocean floor is a risky job.D. Unmanned vehicles are perfect choices for oil and gas industry.第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项.If you are someone who struggles with exam anxiety, know that you aren’t alone.Some levels of stress are normal, and they do serve a purpose.

Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.Dead SeaThe most famous of the lot, the Dead Sea—also known as the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): Bring some reading material to the waters and lie back—nature will do the rest.Lake AssalSurrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the centre of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.Great Salt LakeThe biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere, and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but also Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park, both offering super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.Don Juan PondDon Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep it’s little more than a pond, but it is worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.21. What can visitors probably do in Lake Assal A. Read books. B. Have a hike.C. Enjoy small fishes. D. Take a bath in the lake.22. What is the Great Salt Lake famous for A. Its great parks. B. Its scientific value.C. Its highest salinity. D. Its specific location.23. Which lake is valuable for space exploration A. Dead Sea. B. Lake Assal.C. Don Juan Pond. D. Great Salt Lake.【答案】21. D 22. A 23. C【解析】【导语】本文是应用文。文章介绍了世界各地的四个著名的盐湖。【21题详解】推理判断题。根据Lake Assal部分中的“Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the centre of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.(被黑色的火山岩包围着,是非洲最低点的称号。广阔的盐田标志着它的边缘,该湖长期以来一直是该地区食盐贸易的中心,该地区的非洲当地人仍然依赖于此。虽然该地区可能不适合居住,但水中富含矿物质,对健康有益。)”可知,这个盐是非洲最低点,且湖水含有丰富的矿物质,对身体有益,由此可推知,游客或许可以在Assal湖洗澡。故选D。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据Great Salt Lake部分中的“What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but also Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park, both offering super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.(使湖闻名的不仅是湖的蓝色和绿色的海水和白色的沙滩,还有大盐湖州立公园和羚羊岛州立公园,都提供超级徒步旅行和自行车道,以及绝佳的远景。)”可知,大盐湖以它的公园们而闻名,故选A。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据Don Juan Pond部分中的“Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.(其含盐量近40%,使其成为地球上含盐量最高的水体之一,这意味着即使南极气温降至-50℃,它也不会结冰。有迹象表明火星上可能存在类似形式的水,科学家们研究这个迷人的干燥寒冷环境的原因不止一个。)”可知,唐璜塘对太空探索很有价值。故选C。BBesides “wow” and “great”, what else would you say when flying over the Earth in space Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian female astronaut in space, posted several lines of a famous ancient Chinese composition on Twitter to share her joy.She first wrote in Chinese, and then attached an accurate translation of the lines in both Italian and English to help more people understand. “Looking up, I see the immensity of the cosmos; bowing my head, I look at the multitude of the world. The gaze flies, the heart expands, the joy of the senses can reach its peak, and indeed, this is true happiness,” it says. Two days before she landed on Earth, the beauty of space and Chinese literature resonated on her Twitter account. Before long, her posts went viral on Twitter with thousands of retweets, likes and replies.The text she quoted is from the Preface to Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion,a Chinese calligraphy masterpiece by Wang Xizhi (303-361) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317-420). She also attached three photos taken in space of China’s Bohai Bay and the day-night view of Beijing. “The poem and views are both magnificent as well as healing. If everyone could enjoy the same sight, a lot of pain in the world would be ‘dissipated’,” one user comments.As the first Italian female astronaut in space, Cristoforetti carried out her first space mission on Nov 23, 2014. In 2022, she started the second mission in April and returned to Earth on Friday night after a 127-day stay in orbit.Cristoforetti has also been active in Sino-European cooperation in the field of manned spaceflight. She was a working group member with Chinese counterparts to define and implement cooperation in the field of astronaut operations. When not traveling for work, she is an eager reader and has a great passion for languages. Speaking clear Chinese, Cristoforetti once told the media that the teams from China and Europe were working very well together in the field of astronaut training.24. What is the result of Cristoforetti’s post online A. The birth of a masterpiece.B. A trend of journey to space.C. An instant hot issue on Twitter.D. Different translations of the lines.25. Which word below can be used to replace the underlined word “dissipated” in Paragraph 3 A. Relieved. B. Caused.C. Increased. D. Recognized.26. What can we learn from the last paragraph A.

What can be the best title of the passage A. A female astronaut becomes online starB. A Chinese poem gets popular abroadC. Literature conveys the beauty of spaceD. An Italian astronaut promotes Sino-European cooperation【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一位意大利女性宇航员将中国一首诗歌放在网上,得到众多网友的喜爱和转发。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Two days before she landed on Earth, the beauty of space and Chinese literature resonated on her Twitter account. Before long, her posts went viral on Twitter with thousands of retweets, likes and replies.(在她登陆地球的前两天,太空之美和中国文学在她的推特账户上引起了共鸣。不久,她的帖子就在推特上疯传,被转发、点赞和回复了数千次)”可知,Cristoforetti在推特上的帖子立即成为热门话题。故选C项。【25题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The poem and views are both magnificent as well as healing.(这首诗和风景既壮丽又治愈)”可知,这首诗和风景很治愈,所以如果每个人都能欣赏到同样的景象,那么世界上的许多痛苦就会“缓解”。由此可知,划线词dissipated与relieved“缓解,治愈”意思接近。故选A项。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“When not traveling for work, she is an eager reader and has a great passion for languages. Speaking clear Chinese, Cristoforetti once told the media that the teams from China and Europe were working very well together in the field of astronaut training.(在不出差的时候,她热衷于阅读,对语言有着极大的热情。克里斯托弗雷蒂曾用一口流利的中文告诉媒体,中国和欧洲的团队在宇航员训练领域合作得非常好)”可知,克里斯托弗雷蒂和中国的宇航员合作的很好,而且是一个热衷阅读的语言爱好者。由此推知,这也许就是她发这个帖子的初衷。故选D项。【27题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian female astronaut in space, posted several lines of a famous ancient Chinese composition on Twitter to share her joy.(第一位进入太空的意大利女宇航员萨曼莎·克里斯托弗雷蒂在推特上发布了几行中国古代名曲来分享她的喜悦)”及下文陈述可知,文章主要讲述了一位意大利女性宇航员将中国一首诗歌放在网上,得到众多网友的喜爱和转发。由此可知,A female astronaut becomes online star(一名女宇航员变成网络明星)适合作本文最佳标题。故选A项。CIn the 1990s and 2000s, Costa Rica and Panama experienced a rise in malaria(疟疾) cases. The massive loss of amphibians (两栖动物) in the region from a fungal (真菌的) disease may have contributed to the malaria increase.The spread of the fungal disease was a slow-motion disaster leading to a decades-long wave of amphibian declines globally. From the 1980s to the 2000s, the wave moved from northwest to southeast across Costa Rica and Panama. An analysis of ecological surveys, public health records and satellite data suggests a link between the amphibian die-offs and an increase in human malaria cases.On average, each county had 0.8 to 1.1 additional cases of malaria per 1,000 people per year for about six years, beginning several years after the amphibian losses, Michael Springborn, an environmental economist of the University of California, Davis, and colleagues found.Springborn and colleagues wondered if the impacts that the fungal disease has on the decline of at least 500 species globally stretched to humans. The team turned to Costa Rica and Panama, where the fungus moved through ecosystems in a somewhat uniform way along the narrow area of land on which the two countries sit, Springborn says. The researchers worked out when the fungus arrived at a given place and then looked at the number of malaria cases in those places before and after the die-offs. Malaria cases rose in the first couple of years after the decline and remained high for six years or so before going down again for unknown reasons.Studies on the connections between biodiversity loss and health might “help motivate conservation by highlighting the direct benefits of conservation to human well-being,” says Hillary Young, a community ecologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara. “Humans are causing wildlife to be lost at a rate similar to that of other major mass extinction events,” she says. “We are increasingly aware that these losses can have major impacts on human health and well-being- and, in particular, on risk of infectious disease.”28. What directly brought about the rise in malaria cases A. The extinction of fungus. B. The death of amphibians.C. The spread of a fungal disease. D. The lack of wildlife conservation.29. What can we infer from Springborn and colleagues, findings A. The number of amphibians dropped dramatically.B. The fungus has little impact on human well-being.C. The county’s population multiplied after the amphibian decline.D. Malaria cases show relevant changes when amphibians became fewer.30. How did the scientists carry out the research A. By studying the features of the fungus.B. By comparing the number of malaria cases.C. By finding out the track of fungus’ movement.D. By working out the reason for the amphibian die-offs.31. Which statement is Hillary Young most likely to approve of A. Humans should keep wildlife at a distance.B. Humans cause the major mass extinction events.C. Human well-being is closely connected with wildlife.D. Human health has no relationship with conservation.【答案】28. B 29. D 30. B 31. C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述的是两栖动物的死亡是导致疟疾增长的重要原因。【28题详解】细节理解题。由第一段中的“The massive loss of amphibians (两栖动物) in the region from a fungal (真菌的) disease may have contributed to the malaria increase.( 该地区两栖动物因真菌疾病而大量死亡,可能是导致疟疾病例增加的原因之一。)”可以看出是由于两栖动物的大量死亡导致疟疾的增长。故选B项。【29题详解】推理判断题。通过第三段 “On average, each county had 0.8 to 1.1 additional cases of malaria per 1,000 people per year for about six years, beginning several years after the amphibian losses, Michael Springborn, an environmental economist of the University of California, Davis, and colleagues found.( 加州大学戴维斯分校(University of California, Davis)的环境经济学家迈克尔·斯普林伯恩(Michael Springborn)及其同事发现,在两栖动物消失几年后,平均而言,每个县每1000人每年增加0.8到1.1例疟疾病例,持续了大约6年。)”可推测出当两栖动物变少时,疟疾病例显示出相关的变化。故选D项。【30题详解】推理判断题。由第四段中的“The researchers worked out when the fungus arrived at a given place and then looked at the number of malaria cases in those places before and after the die-offs.( 研究人员计算出了这种真菌何时到达一个特定的地方,然后观察了这些地方在真菌死亡前后的疟疾病例数量。)”可以推断出,科学家是通过对比前后疟疾病例的数量来判断的。故选B项。【31题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段“Studies on the connections between biodiversity loss and health might “help motivate conservation by highlighting the direct benefits of conservation to human well-being,” says Hillary Young, a community ecologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara. “Humans are causing wildlife to be lost at a rate similar to that of other major mass extinction events,” she says. “We are increasingly aware that these losses can have major impacts on human health and well-being- and, in particular, on risk of infectious disease.”(加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的社区生态学家希拉里·杨(Hillary Young)说,对生物多样性丧失与健康之间联系的研究可能“通过强调保护对人类福祉的直接好处,有助于促进保护”。她说:“人类造成野生动物灭绝的速度与其他重大物种灭绝事件相似。”“我们越来越意识到,这些损失可能对人类健康和福祉产生重大影响,特别是对传染病的风险。”)”可以得出人的生命健康与野生生物是息息相关的。故选C项。DThe deep-sea oil and gas industry has vast and costly facilities to maintain. Wells, other equipment, and thousands of kilometers of pipelines must be inspected and repaired.Now, cutting-edge underwater drones(无人机)and robots are being developed that could make the work safer and cheaper. Among them is Eelume, a six-meter-long, snake-like robot equipped with sensors and a camera at each end. It can be kept at a station at depths of up to half a kilometer for six months, without being brought back to the surface. The robot can travel up to 20 kilometers before needing to return to its station to recharge.Maintenance work at many deep-water wells and pipeline systems is already carried out by unmanned vehicles. But these vehicles typically need to be transported to the offshore site on a fully crewed ship and then remotely operated from onboard the surface ship. That can cost up to $100,000 per day, according to P l Liljeb ck, chief technology officer with Eelume Subsea Intervention, which developed the robot. Liljeb ck says that by “enabling the robot to become a subsea resident living at a station, it can be mobilized at any time to do inspections, thereby reducing the need for costly surface ships”.Eelume can work autonomously on tasks assigned from a control room onshore, and send back video and data. Its snake-like design allows it to work in small spaces and wriggle(扭动)its body to stay in place in strong currents. By staying under the sea, it can carry out tasks whatever the conditions on the surface of the ocean.The global underwater robotics market is expected to be worth around $7 billion in 2025, according to analysts, and other companies are in the process of commercializing new deep-sea drone and robot technology. Eelume Subsea Intervention will carry out final testing on the seabed later this year at the sgard oil and gas field. It expects to put its first snake robots into use next year and hopes to have up to 50 in oceans around the world by 2027.32. What is one feature of Eelume A. It can travel nearly 40 kilometers before recharging. B. It can dive as deep as 1000 meters.C. It works mainly around the station. D. It works for 6 months on one charge.33. What is the problem with unmanned vehicles A. They are too costly to maintain.B. They are hard to operate remotely.C. They require transportation to and from work.D. They have to work on a fully crewed ship all the time.34. What can be expected of Eelume in the future A. It will require no further tests. B. It will be worth around $ 7 billion.C. It will be put on the market in 2027. D. It will possibly face some competitors.35. What is the main idea of the passage A. A snake robot is on its way for underwater tasks.B. Eelume is the new choice for constructing pipelines.C. Maintenance work on the ocean floor is a risky job.D. Unmanned vehicles are perfect choices for oil and gas industry.【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍研究人员正在研发一款蛇形机器人,用于深海石油和天然气开采设备的维护。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的“It can be kept at a station at depths of up to half a kilometer for six months, without being brought back to the surface. The robot can travel up to 20 kilometers before needing to return to its station to recharge. (它可以在深度达半公里的站点保留六个月,而不用被带回地面。该机器人可以行驶20公里,然后需要返回站点充电)”可知,它在再次充电前可以运行大约40公里。故选A。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But these vehicles typically need to be transported to the offshore site on a fully crewed ship and then remotely operated from onboard the surface ship. (但这些工具通常需要用一艘满载船员的船运输到海上现场,然后在海面舰艇上远程操作)”可知,这些无人设备需要被运送到作业现场。故选C。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“and other companies are in the process of commercializing new deep-sea drone and robot technology. (其他公司正在将新的深海无人机和机器人技术商业化)”推知,Eelume将面临很多的竞争对手。故选D。【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其第二段的“Now, cutting-edge underwater drones (无人机) and robots are being developed that could make the work safer and cheaper. Among them is Eelume, a six-meter-long, snake-like robot equipped with sensors and a camera at each end. (现在,尖端的水下无人机和机器人的开发可以使工作更安全、更便宜。其中包括六米长的蛇形机器人Eelume,它的两端都装有传感器和摄像头)”可知,本文介绍研究人员正在研发一款蛇形机器人,用于深海石油和天然气开采设备的维护,即一款在水下执行任务的蛇形机器人。故选A。第二节(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项.If you are someone who struggles with exam anxiety, know that you aren’t alone.Some levels of stress are normal, and they do serve a purpose.
