Here’s the story behind four popular American fast food mascots.Ronald McDonald (McDonald’s)Ronald McDonald first appeared in 1963, though fans of today’s friendly cartoon clown (小丑) probably wouldn’t recognize the early version, based on a then-popular TV character called Bozo the Clown. When Bozo was canceled, McDonald’s hired the actor who played him to create another clown character whose costume was made of things then found in McDonald’s restaurants.Wendy (Wendy’s)Wendy’s is the third largest hamburger chain in the United States, behind McDonald’s and Burger King. Dave Thomas founded the first Wendy’s restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, in 1969. One of the fast food’s most famous logos, Wendy’s cartoon image of a smiling redheaded girl, was based on the appearance of Thomas’s daughter, who also inspired the company’s name.The Cows (Chick-fil-A)Chick-fil-A’s mascots have long been a pair of black-and-white Holstein cows with a strong sense of self-preservation and poor spelling skills, when they began urging people to “Eat Mor Chikin” instead of beef. The Cows made their first appearance in 1995 painting a billboard in Atlanta, but have since moved throughout the country and are featured on beautiful toys and calendars.Colonel Sanders (KFC)The Colonel isn’t just the KFC company mascot, but also its real-life founder-“Colonel” Harland David Sanders opened the first Kentucky Fried Chicken in 1930. He sold the company in 1964, strongly disapproving of various changes later made to his recipes. He died in 1980. In the late 1990s,an animated (动画片的) cartoon version appeared in KFC ads.21. Which character was McDonald’s early mascot based on A. Wendy. B. The Cows. C. Bozo the Clown. D. Colonel Sanders.22. Where did The Cows’ mascots first appear A. In Columbus. B. In Atlanta. C. In Kansas City. D. In Birmingham.23. When was the first KFC opened A. In 1930. B. In 1964. C. In 1969. D. In 1995.BExploring the peaks (山顶) of the world’s highest mountains or the secrets of space has become almost second nature for Poorna Malavath and Kavya Manyapu. It has taken Manyapu to NASA where her research has included designing space suits, and Malavath to the top of Mount Everest in 2014, when she became the youngest ever woman to climb the world’s highest mountain at the age of just 13.Now, the two women have channeled their exploring spirit into climbing some of the world’s most difficult mountains as part of their campaign, Project Shakthi, which raises money to fund girls’ education.At the end of August, they climbed a 6,012-meter virgin peak in Ladakh, India-one previously unmapped and untouched by humans, Never climbed before, the mountain presented difficult challenges for even an experienced mountaineer like Malavath, for there were neither routes to follow nor advice from previous climbers to cling to. “We have to prepare ourselves mentally to accept everything,” Malavath says.Every member of the team experienced some form of altitude sickness (高原反应) while climbing up the virgin peak. Rainy weather conditions that turned to snow at high altitudes added to the complexities of climbing the mountain. And for a relatively inexperienced climber like Manyapu, though she had trained extensively, the challenges were even greater.In the group’s darkest moments on the journey, they found motivation in Project Shakthi’s purpose: “We climb so that girls can read”, a deeply personal cause for both Malavath and Manyapu.In the meantime, the project has already begun selecting girls who will receive its sponsorship through the $12,000 it has raised so far. “Poorna and I actually visited our village back in India right after we completed our exploration of the virgin peak,” Manyapu says, “And we are starting the project in our village because that’s where our roots are.”Eventually, the project will aim to sponsor girls across the globe, empowering them and offering them opportunities to receive education.24. What is the purpose of Project Shakthi A. To design space suits. B. To map mountain peaks.C. To explore the secrets of space. D. To collect money for girls’ education.25. What does the underlined phrase “cling to” in paragraph 3 mean A. Ignore. B. Turn down. C. Rely on. D. Give.26. Which of the following best describes climbing the virgin peak A. Dangerous. B. Unnecessary. C. Unchallenging. D. Interesting.27 What is the best title for the text A. Kavya Manyapu’s Achievements in Studying SpaceB. Two Successful Women Climbed a Mountain for CharityC. Girls in the Villages Have Long Suffered Unfair TreatmentD. Difficulties Poorna Malavath Experienced When Climbing Mount EverestCAustrian-based food-tech startup Revo Foods announced this week that its 3D-printed vegan fish filet (素食鱼片) was heading to European grocery store shelves — a first for 3D-printed food. According to the company’s September 12 press release, the arrival of the “Filet” represents a key moment in sustainable food, with 3D-printed consumables ready for industrial mass production. Revo Foods Filet is likely to be just the first of many other such 3D-printed edible (可食用的) products to soon hit the market.“Despite dramatic losses of coral reefs and increasing levels of poisons and micro plastic polluting fish, consumer demand for seafood has skyrocketed in recent decades,” the company announcement explains, “One promising solution to provide consumers with sustainable alternatives that do not contribute to overfishing is vegan seafood. The key to the success of these products lies in recreating a real taste that appeals to consumers.”The composition of the Filet provides a meat-like texture (口感). 12 ingredients (成分) compose Revo’s Filet, such as pea proteins, plant oils and algae extracts. With its high protein and Ornega-3 contents, eating a Revo Filet is still very much like eating regular salmon. And thanks to its plant-based ingredients, the Filet has a three week shelf life, a significant improvement over regular salmon products.“With the milestone of industrial-scale 3D food printing, we are entering a creative food revolution, an era where food is being made exactly according to the customers’ needs,” Revo Foods CEO Robin Simsa said via this week’s announcement.While Revo’s products are currently only available for European markets, the company says it is actively working to expand its availability across the globe, with Simsa telling PopSci the company hopes to enter US markets around 2025.28. What can we infer from the second paragraph A. Revo’s Filet will be eco-friendly. B. Revo Foods is popular in Europe.C. Edible fish have decreased sharply. D. Most people refuse to accept seafood.29. What is special about Revo’s Filet A It is a kind of seafood. B. It has a longer shelf life.C. It has the same taste as salmon. D. It has no food quality problems.30. What is Simsa’s attitude to the future of 3D-printed food A. Doubtful. B. Disappointed. C. Optimistic. D. Worried.31. What is the text A. A short story. B. A research paper.C. An advertisement. D. A news report.DWhile temperatures continue to climb, visitors are still coming to see Death Valley National Park on the California-Nevada border. The park is known as the hottest place on Earth. This past weekend, the temperatures climbed to 53.33℃. Most visitors at this time of year make it only a short distance to any area in the park before returning to the cool air in their vehicles.Early information from the park service shows that across the nation’s 424 national parks, at least four people have died this year from heat-related causes. That includes a 65-year-old man from San Diego who was found dead at Death Valley earlier this month.Death Valley National Park suggests visitors be careful and not have expectations of rescue. While park rangers (护林员) drive on park roads and can aid tourists in need, it is unsure that lost visitors will get help in time.Physical activity can make the heat feel even worse and leave people exhausted. Alessia Dempster, who was visiting from Edinburgh, Scotland, said, “It’s very hot especially when there’s a gentle wind. You would think maybe that would give you some slight relief from the heat, but it just really does feel like an air blow dryer just going back in your face.”Death Valley is a narrow area that is below sea level and surrounded by high mountains, the park service’s website says. The dry air and small plant coverage let sunlight heat up the park surface. The heat then becomes trapped in the valley.Still, several areas in Death Valley continue to draw tourists. Badwater Basin, made up of salt flats, is considered the lowest point in all of North America. The 183-meter Ubehebe Crater dates back over 2,000 years. And Zabriskie Point is a great sunrise viewing spot.Josh Miller, a visitor from Indianapolis who has been to 20 national parks so far, shared that feeling. “It’s hot, but the scenery is awesome,” he said.32. What do most visitors do in Death Valley A. Cool themselves in time. B. Do lots of physical exercises.C. Stay away from park rangers. D. Carry dryers with themselves.33. Why does the author mention the 65-year-old man in paragraph 2 A. To encourage the elderly to travel more.B. To express admiration for mountain climbers.C. To advise people to tour Death Valley more often.D. To show the danger of traveling in Death Valley.34. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Death Valley A. Its covering area. B. Its attractive spots.C. The reason why it is so hot. D. The service of its park’s website.35. What can be inferred about Death Valley from the last two paragraphs A. It has a short history. B. It is worth visiting.C. It draws fewer and fewer tourists. D. It is unsuitable for viewing sunrise.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Body language can reflect our confidence level. ____36____ and another way when we’re nervous.

My children received almost everything on their wish lists when their father was alive, but things were different now. Blake was now thirteen years old and Allison twelve.

Mr. Godber said that he didn’t have any regrets about his three years at the club. He thought that perhaps it was time for someone else to take control and improve the team’s performance. He admitted that the situation hadn’t always been easy at the club. But he said that he had always tried his hardest and that some things hadn’t gone his way. When we asked him what he intended to do now, he said that he wanted to go abroad and take a few months off with his family, to relax and consider his future. The director of the club said that they would start looking for someone to replace Mr. Godber as soon as possible. Let’s hope they can find someone who can win a match now and again!第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。AMascots (店标) are a recognizable connection between consumers and brand identity for fast food chains. Here’s the story behind four popular American fast food mascots.Ronald McDonald (McDonald’s)Ronald McDonald first appeared in 1963, though fans of today’s friendly cartoon clown (小丑) probably wouldn’t recognize the early version, based on a then-popular TV character called Bozo the Clown. When Bozo was canceled, McDonald’s hired the actor who played him to create another clown character whose costume was made of things then found in McDonald’s restaurants.Wendy (Wendy’s)Wendy’s is the third largest hamburger chain in the United States, behind McDonald’s and Burger King. Dave Thomas founded the first Wendy’s restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, in 1969. One of the fast food’s most famous logos, Wendy’s cartoon image of a smiling redheaded girl, was based on the appearance of Thomas’s daughter, who also inspired the company’s name.The Cows (Chick-fil-A)Chick-fil-A’s mascots have long been a pair of black-and-white Holstein cows with a strong sense of self-preservation and poor spelling skills, when they began urging people to “Eat Mor Chikin” instead of beef. The Cows made their first appearance in 1995 painting a billboard in Atlanta, but have since moved throughout the country and are featured on beautiful toys and calendars.Colonel Sanders (KFC)The Colonel isn’t just the KFC company mascot, but also its real-life founder-“Colonel” Harland David Sanders opened the first Kentucky Fried Chicken in 1930. He sold the company in 1964, strongly disapproving of various changes later made to his recipes. He died in 1980. In the late 1990s,an animated (动画片的) cartoon version appeared in KFC ads.21. Which character was McDonald’s early mascot based on A. Wendy. B. The Cows. C. Bozo the Clown. D. Colonel Sanders.22. Where did The Cows’ mascots first appear A. In Columbus. B. In Atlanta. C. In Kansas City. D. In Birmingham.23. When was the first KFC opened A. In 1930. B. In 1964. C. In 1969. D. In 1995.【答案】21. C 22. B 23. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四个流行的美国快餐店标背后的故事。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据 Ronald McDonald (McDonald’s) 部分中“Ronald McDonald first appeared in 1963, though fans of today’s friendly cartoon clown (小丑) probably wouldn’t recognize the early version, based on a then-popular TV character called Bozo the Clown. (Ronald McDonald第一次出现是在1963年,尽管今天友好的卡通小丑的粉丝可能不认识早期的版本,它是根据当时很受欢迎的电视角色“Bozo the Clown”改编的。)”可知,Ronald McDonald的早期店标的形象是基于当时流行的电视角色Bozo the Clown创建的。故选C。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据The Cows (Chick-fil-A)部分中“The Cows made their first appearance in 1995 painting a billboard in Atlanta (1995年,“The Cows”第一次亮相是在亚特兰大的一个广告牌上)”可知,1995年它第一次出现在亚特兰大。故选B。【23题详解】细节理解题。根据Colonel Sanders (KFC)部分中“The Colonel isn’t just the KFC company mascot, but also its real-life founder-“Colonel” Harland David Sanders opened the first Kentucky Fried Chicken in 1930. (Colonel不仅是肯德基公司的店标,也是其现实生活中的创始人——“Colonel” Harland David Sanders在1930年开了第一家肯德基。)”可知,Colonel Sanders不仅是KFC的店标,也是其现实生活中的创始人。他于1930年开了第一家肯德基餐厅。故选A。BExploring the peaks (山顶) of the world’s highest mountains or the secrets of space has become almost second nature for Poorna Malavath and Kavya Manyapu. It has taken Manyapu to NASA where her research has included designing space suits, and Malavath to the top of Mount Everest in 2014, when she became the youngest ever woman to climb the world’s highest mountain at the age of just 13.Now, the two women have channeled their exploring spirit into climbing some of the world’s most difficult mountains as part of their campaign, Project Shakthi, which raises money to fund girls’ education.At the end of August, they climbed a 6,012-meter virgin peak in Ladakh, India-one previously unmapped and untouched by humans, Never climbed before, the mountain presented difficult challenges for even an experienced mountaineer like Malavath, for there were neither routes to follow nor advice from previous climbers to cling to. “We have to prepare ourselves mentally to accept everything,” Malavath says.Every member of the team experienced some form of altitude sickness (高原反应) while climbing up the virgin peak. Rainy weather conditions that turned to snow at high altitudes added to the complexities of climbing the mountain. And for a relatively inexperienced climber like Manyapu, though she had trained extensively, the challenges were even greater.In the group’s darkest moments on the journey, they found motivation in Project Shakthi’s purpose: “We climb so that girls can read”, a deeply personal cause for both Malavath and Manyapu.In the meantime, the project has already begun selecting girls who will receive its sponsorship through the $12,000 it has raised so far. “Poorna and I actually visited our village back in India right after we completed our exploration of the virgin peak,” Manyapu says, “And we are starting the project in our village because that’s where our roots are.”Eventually, the project will aim to sponsor girls across the globe, empowering them and offering them opportunities to receive education.24. What is the purpose of Project Shakthi A. To design space suits. B. To map mountain peaks.C. To explore the secrets of space. D. To collect money for girls’ education.25. What does the underlined phrase “cling to” in paragraph 3 mean A. Ignore. B. Turn down. C. Rely on. D. Give.26. Which of the following best describes climbing the virgin peak A. Dangerous. B. Unnecessary. C. Unchallenging. D. Interesting.27. What is the best title for the text A. Kavya Manyapu’s Achievements in Studying SpaceB. Two Successful Women Climbed a Mountain for CharityC. Girls in the Villages Have Long Suffered Unfair TreatmentD. Difficulties Poorna Malavath Experienced When Climbing Mount Everest【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了普尔纳·马拉瓦特和卡维亚·马尼亚二人的登山活动和为了慈善攀登一座山做出的努力。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Project Shakthi, which raises money to fund girls’ education. (Shakthi项目,筹集资金资助女孩教育)”可知, Shakthi 项目的目的是筹钱资助女孩接受教育。故选D。【25题详解】词义猜测题。根据画线词组前“for there were neither routes to follow nor advice from previous climbers to (因为既没有路线可走,也没有以前登山者的建议)”可推断,此处的意思是“没有以前登山者的建议可依靠”。A. Ignore忽略;B. Turn down把音量调低;C. Rely on依靠;D. Give给予。画线词组的意思和 Rely on 最接近。故选C。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“a 6,012-meter virgin peak in Ladakh, India-one previously unmapped and untouched by humans, Never climbed before, the mountain presented difficult challenges for even an experienced mountaineer like Malavath(这是印度拉达克6012米高的处女峰,以前从未被人类绘制过,也从未被攀登过,即使是像马拉瓦特这样经验丰富的登山者也面临着艰难的挑战)”和第四段中“Every member of the team experienced some form of altitude sickness (高原反应) while climbing up the virgin peak. Rainy weather conditions that turned to snow at high altitudes added to the complexities of climbing the mountain. (登山队的每个成员在攀登圣母峰时都经历了某种形式的高原反应。多雨的天气条件在高海拔地区变成了雪,这增加了攀登珠峰的复杂性。)”可推断,爬拉达克的处女峰十分危险。故选A。【27题详解】标题判断题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“Now, the two women have channeled their exploring spirit into climbing some of the world’s most difficult mountains as part of their campaign, Project Shakthi, which raises money to fund girls’ education. (现在,这两个女人把她们的探索精神引导到攀登世界上最困难的一些山峰上,这是她们的活动“Shakthi项目”的一部分,该活动为女孩的教育筹集资金。)”可知,本文主要讲的是两个成功的女人为了慈善攀登一座山。所以,用B项“Two Successful Women Climbed a Mountain for Charity”作为本文的题目与文章主题相符合。故选B。CAustrian-based food-tech startup Revo Foods announced this week that its 3D-printed vegan fish filet (素食鱼片) was heading to European grocery store shelves — a first for 3D-printed food. According to the company’s September 12 press release, the arrival of the “Filet” represents a key moment in sustainable food, with 3D-printed consumables ready for industrial mass production. Revo Foods Filet is likely to be just the first of many other such 3D-printed edible (可食用的) products to soon hit the market.“Despite dramatic losses of coral reefs and increasing levels of poisons and micro plastic polluting fish, consumer demand for seafood has skyrocketed in recent decades,” the company announcement explains, “One promising solution to provide consumers with sustainable alternatives that do not contribute to overfishing is vegan seafood. The key to the success of these products lies in recreating a real taste that appeals to consumers.”The composition of the Filet provides a meat-like texture (口感). 12 ingredients (成分) compose Revo’s Filet, such as pea proteins, plant oils and algae extracts. With its high protein and Ornega-3 contents, eating a Revo Filet is still very much like eating regular salmon. And thanks to its plant-based ingredients, the Filet has a three week shelf life, a significant improvement over regular salmon products.“With the milestone of industrial-scale 3D food printing, we are entering a creative food revolution, an era where food is being made exactly according to the customers’ needs,” Revo Foods CEO Robin Simsa said via this week’s announcement.While Revo’s products are currently only available for European markets, the company says it is actively working to expand its availability across the globe, with Simsa telling PopSci the company hopes to enter US markets around 2025.28. What can we infer from the second paragraph A. Revo’s Filet will be eco-friendly. B. Revo Foods is popular in Europe.C. Edible fish have decreased sharply. D. Most people refuse to accept seafood.29. What is special about Revo’s Filet A. It is a kind of seafood. B. It has a longer shelf life.C. It has the same taste as salmon. D. It has no food quality problems.30. What is Simsa’s attitude to the future of 3D-printed food A. Doubtful. B. Disappointed. C. Optimistic. D. Worried.31. What is the text A. A short story. B. A research paper.C. An advertisement. D. A news report.【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. D【解析】【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了3D打印纯素食鱼片的优点,它将进入欧洲杂货店货架,前景广泛。【28题详解】推理判断题。由第二段中“One promising solution to provide consumers with sustainable alternatives that do not contribute to overfishing is vegan seafood. The key to the success of these products lies in recreating a real taste that appeals to consumers. (为消费者提供可持续的替代品而不会导致过度捕捞的一个有希望的解决方案是纯素食海鲜。这些产品成功的关键在于重现吸引消费者的真正味道)”可知,Revo Foods公司为消费者提供了不会导致过度捕捞的可持续替代品3D打印素食鱼片,因此,Revo的素食鱼片是有利于生态环境的。故选A项。【29题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中“And thanks to its plant-based ingredients, the Filet has a three week shelf life, a significant improvement over regular salmon products. (由于其植物性成分,Filet的保质期为三周,比普通三文鱼产品有了显著改善)”可知,由于其植物成分,素食鱼片拥有三周的保质期,比普通三文鱼产品的保质期更长。故选B项。【30题详解】推理判断题。由倒数第二段中Simsa说的话“With the milestone of industrial-scale 3D food printing, we are entering a creative food revolution, an era where food is being made exactly according to the customers’ needs (随着工业规模3D食品打印的里程碑,我们正在进入一场创意食品革命,一个完全根据客户需求生产食品的时代)”和最后一段中“with Simsa telling PopSci the company hopes to enter US markets around 2025. (Simsa告诉PopSci,该公司希望在2025年左右进入美国市场)”可知,Simsa认为他们正在进入一场创意食品革命、完全根据客户需求生产食品的时代,以后公司在2025年左右还会进军美国市场,可得出他对公司的3D打印素食鱼片的未来是乐观的。故选C项。【31题详解】推理判断题。通读全文可知,食品科技初创公司Revo Foods开发的3D打印素食鱼片将登上欧洲杂货店的货架,这是3D打印食品的首例。由此推断,这是一篇有关科技食品介绍的新闻报道。故选D项。DWhile temperatures continue to climb, visitors are still coming to see Death Valley National Park on the California-Nevada border. The park is known as the hottest place on Earth. This past weekend, the temperatures climbed to 53.33℃. Most visitors at this time of year make it only a short distance to any area in the park before returning to the cool air in their vehicles.Early information from the park service shows that across the nation’s 424 national parks, at least four people have died this year from heat-related causes. That includes a 65-year-old man from San Diego who was found dead at Death Valley earlier this month.Death Valley National Park suggests visitors be careful and not have expectations of rescue. While park rangers (护林员) drive on park roads and can aid tourists in need, it is unsure that lost visitors will get help in time.Physical activity can make the heat feel even worse and leave people exhausted. Alessia Dempster, who was visiting from Edinburgh, Scotland, said, “It’s very hot especially when there’s a gentle wind. You would think maybe that would give you some slight relief from the heat, but it just really does feel like an air blow dryer just going back in your face.”Death Valley is a narrow area that is below sea level and surrounded by high mountains, the park service’s website says. The dry air and small plant coverage let sunlight heat up the park surface. The heat then becomes trapped in the valley.Still, several areas in Death Valley continue to draw tourists. Badwater Basin, made up of salt flats, is considered the lowest point in all of North America. The 183-meter Ubehebe Crater dates back over 2,000 years. And Zabriskie Point is a great sunrise viewing spot.Josh Miller, a visitor from Indianapolis who has been to 20 national parks so far, shared that feeling. “It’s hot, but the scenery is awesome,” he said.32. What do most visitors do in Death Valley A. Cool themselves in time. B. Do lots of physical exercises.C. Stay away from park rangers. D. Carry dryers with themselves.33. Why does the author mention the 65-year-old man in paragraph 2 A. To encourage the elderly to travel more.B. To express admiration for mountain climbers.C. To advise people to tour Death Valley more often.D. To show the danger of traveling in Death Valley.34. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Death Valley A. Its covering area. B. Its attractive spots.C. The reason why it is so hot. D. The service of its park’s website.35. What can be inferred about Death Valley from the last two paragraphs A. It has a short history. B. It is worth visiting.C. It draws fewer and fewer tourists. D. It is unsuitable for viewing sunrise.【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. B【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国的“死亡谷”,这里的气温非常高,但还是吸引了很多人前来参观。【32题详解】细节理解题,根据第一段“The park is known as the hottest place on Earth. This past weekend, the temperatures climbed to 53.33℃. Most visitors at this time of year make it only a short distance to any area in the park before returning to the cool air in their vehicles. (这个公园被认为是地球上最热的地方。上周末,气温攀升至53.33℃。在每年的这个时候,大多数游客只会到公园的任何一个地方很短的距离,然后就会回到他们的车里享受凉爽的空气)”可知,游玩死亡谷国家公园时,大部分游客都会及时给自己降温。故选A。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“Early information from the park service shows that across the nation’s 424 national parks, at least four people have died this year from heat-related causes. That includes a 65-year-old man from San Diego who was found dead at Death Valley earlier this month. (来自公园管理局的早期信息显示,在全国424个国家公园中,今年至少有4人死于与高温有关的原因。其中包括一名来自圣地亚哥的65岁男子,本月早些时候,他被发现死于死亡谷)”可推知,作者提及这位65岁的老人是为了说明在死亡谷国家公园游玩的危险之处,故选D。【34题详解】主旨大意题。根据第五段“Death Valley is a narrow area that is below sea level and surrounded by high mountains, the park service’s website says. The dry air and small plant coverage let sunlight heat up the park surface. The heat then becomes trapped in the valley. (公园管理局的网站上说,死亡谷是一个低于海平面的狭窄地区,周围环绕着高山。干燥的空气和小的植物覆盖让阳光加热了公园的表面。然后热量被困在山谷里)”可知,故本段主要讲的是死亡谷如此炽热的原因。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Still, several areas in Death Valley continue to draw tourists. Badwater Basin, made up of salt flats, is considered the lowest point in all of North America. The 183-meter Ubehebe Crater dates back over 2,000 years. And Zabriskie Point is a great sunrise viewing spot. (尽管如此,死亡谷的几个地区仍然吸引着游客。由盐滩组成的巴德沃特盆地被认为是整个北美的最低点。183米高的乌贝赫比陨石坑可以追溯到2000多年前。扎布里斯基角是观赏日出的好地方)”以及最后一段“Josh Miller, a visitor from Indianapolis who has been to 20 national parks so far, shared that feeling. “It’s hot, but the scenery is awesome,” he said. (来自印第安纳波利斯的游客Josh Miller也有这种感觉,他到目前为止已经去过20个国家公园了。“天气很热,但风景很棒,”他说)”可推断,Death Valley是一个值得游玩的地方。故选B。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Body language can reflect our confidence level. ____36____ and another way when we’re nervous.
