About three decades ago, China was known as the "Bicycle Kingdom". But later on, bikes were replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.
But recent months have seen a recovery of the humble bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.
People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the "last mile" problem,which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.
" In places where the subway doesn't extend, where it's difficult to change from one kind of transport to another, it's so easy to get where you want to go with Mobike," Hu Hong,29,told AFP. She pedals(骑车)to her Shanghai real-estate job.
However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, vandalism(故意毁坏) and theft. Last month,two nurses in Beijing were placed under administrative punishment for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes. And in December, a man who stole a shared bike was sentenced to a 3-month detention(拘留),and fined 1 ,000 yuan by the Shanghai Minhang People's Court.
" Bike-sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a user-friendly experience,"said Liu Xiaoming,vice-minister of transport.
" But it's a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems."
Now, Chinese service operators are trying to solve the problems. For example, a bike- sharing company called Mobike sets a 100-point credit score for each user, with points taken in the case of bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80,bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes, up from 0.5 - 1 yuan.
8. Which of the following belongs to the "last mile" problem
A. Missing the business plane for the traffic jam.
B. To get to somewhere the subway can reach.
C. Having troubles in changing from bus to taxi.
D. To remove the last rock in the way.
9. What reason causes many problems in bike-sharing
A. Some people make damage to the bikes on purpose.
B. Operators lack offline business experience.
C. The bike-sharing business is too complicated to run.
D. There are no relative laws on this business.
10. Why are the bike-sharing systems popular
A. They are very effective. B. They can be picked up anywhere.
C. They are equipped with GPS. D. They help solve the last mile problem.
11. What's the best title for this passage
A. Bickes Pedaling Back Into Styles
B. A New Way of Transportations
C. Riding a Mobicycle for Free
D. Bicycle Kingdom Became Famous Again
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】文章讲述了近期中国的“共享单车”受欢迎现象,并陈述了其受欢迎的原因。共享单车是一种更环保的交通方式,但也有很多问题。中国的服务运营商正在积极地解决这些问题。
【8题详解】
C
细节理解题。根据题干"last mile"problem,锁定信息源为第三段"which refers to the final leg of a person's journey".再细读这一段可以知道"In places where the subway doesn't extend""在地铁不延伸的地方,故B项不正确;"where it's difficult to change from one kind of transport to another, it's so easy to get where you want to go with Mobike,"(当很难从一种运输方式转变到另一种运输方式,骑自行车很容易去你想去的地方),故C项正确;D项(移除路上的岩石)及A项(由于交通堵塞,商务飞机误点了)都不属于最后一程(last mile"problem)。因此正确答案为C项。
【9题详解】
B
细节理解题。根据最后一段"Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems."可以推断出导致共享单车系统出现问题的原因是lack offline business experience,所以解决这个问题就需要增加线下运营经验。故正确选项为B。
【10题详解】
D

【答案定位】根据第三段They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.可知,共享单车受欢迎是因为它有效地解决了人们最后一英里的问题。
【推理关系】题干Why are the bike-sharing systems popular 文章内容They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.
【答案】provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem. D选项They help solve the last mile problem. 关键词 an effective solution to和solve the last mile problem

Rachel Carson was concerned about what was happenig to the environment. So in her book Silent Spring, she warned that some chemicals were poisoning the air, the water, the earth, and all its creatures. She imagined a time when spring would not bring the rebirth of flowers, trees, and the songs of birds. The book became a bestseller, and Ms. Carson was in great demand as a speaker. People lisened to her because what she said made sense, and because she was a scientist who knew her facts.
Rachel Carson was primarily interested in the world of sea and shore, so she became a marine biologst for the government. She studied and recorded facts about the sea' s plant and animal life, their special characteristics, and the nature of their environments. In 1951, she wrote The Sea Around Us, which brought her honors, fame, and respect around the world.
Ms. Carson then devoted herself full-time to research and writing. One thing much on her mind was the effect of modern technology on the natural environment. One day, a distressed friend wrote her to say that a plane spraying(喷洒) DDT had flown over her yard, and the next day several birds lay dead. Carson decided to act.
For four years she studied the use of pesticides(杀虫剂) in the United States, and then she wrote Silent Spring.
In her book Ms. Carson said that these pesticides would harm much more than insects. She explained that these poisons would pollute the environment. “Even if their effects are not immediately observable, they remain for years in the water and the soil, and they become part of the food eaten by animals and humans.
Besides, after a time, insects develop immunity to pesticides,” she said.
Recent studies have shown that pesticides can affect human brainwave activity and cause loss of memory and inability to concentrate. We should still remember Rachel Carson’s words, “I think we are challenged as we have never been challenged before to prove our mastery, not of nature, but of ourselves.”
12. Silent Spring is a book that__________
A. aims to raise people’s environmental awareness
B. stresses the importance of the cycle of nature
C. describes the author' s childhood experiences
D. asks people to enjoy the beauty of spring
13. The underlined word “distressed” in Paragraph 3 probably means________
A. curious B. humorous C. excited D. worried
14. According to the text, Rachel Carson________
A. became world-famous due to Silent Spring
B. warned against the use of chemicals to kill insects
C. had a good knowledge of the planets in the universe
D. created a system for improving human brainwave activity
15. What Rachel Carson said in the last paragraph suggests that________
A. we should prove ourselves to be the ruler of this world
B. it's a chance for us to prove our mastery of nature
C. it's time for us to think about what we have done
D. settling on the earth is a challenge for humans
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了瑞秋·卡森很关心环境的变化,一直致力于保护环境,她写还了一本书——《寂静的春天》来提高人们的环保意识。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Rachel Carson was concerned about what was happenig to the environment. So in her book Silent Sping, she warned that some chemicals were poisoning the air, the water, the earth, and all its creatures.”可知,瑞秋·卡森很关心环境的变化。所以在她的书《寂静的春天》中,她警告说,一些化学物质正在毒害空气、水、地球及其所有生物,由此可知,《寂静的春天》是一本旨在提高人们环保意识的书,故A项正确。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“a plane spraying(喷洒) DDT had flown over her yard, and the next day several birds lay dead.”可知,一架喷洒杀虫剂的飞机飞过她的院子,结果第二天就有几只鸟死掉了,因此这个朋友一定会闷闷不乐(很担心),由此可知画线词词义为“担心的、闷闷不乐的”,故D项正确。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的“In her book Ms. Carson said that these pesticides would harm much more than insects. She explained that these poisons would pollute the environment.”可知,卡森女士在书中说,这些杀虫剂对人体的危害远大于对昆虫的危害,她解释说这些毒药会污染环境,由此可知,她警告不要使用化学药品杀虫,故B项正确。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Recent studies have shown that pesticides can affect human brainwave activity and cause loss of memory and inability to concentrate.”可知,最近的研究表明,杀虫剂会影响人的脑波活动,导致记忆丧失和无法集中注意力,因此瑞秋·卡森说的“我认为我们受到了挑战,因为我们受到前所未有的挑战,去证明我们掌握了自己,而不是掌握了自然”,可推断,我们是时候该考虑一下我们的所作所为(不仅对环境,而且还对我们自己造成的影响)了,故C项正确。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项,其中有两项为多余选项。
If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping, I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. ___16___
The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. ____17____ We slept in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom.

I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. ____18____ Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己近三年来逐渐改变了对野营的看法,从以前对野营活动嗤之以鼻,经过几次野营后慢慢喜欢上了野营,最后表达野营将逐渐成为人类回归自然的很好方式,建议人们找到属于自己的方式。
【16题详解】
上文 They had nothing in common with me 说明作者原来认为他不会成为野营者.而下文主要描述的是"我"从最开始进行"rough travel"到有了"pop-up camper"再到有了 trailer 的过程,在这过程中作者对野营的爱好逐步增加,对野营的相关知识也在逐步增长,上下文呈转折关系.D项意为"然而在那之后我将会学到关于野营的很多知识",起到转折作用,引出下文,符合语境.故正确答案为D。
【17题详解】
由下文 We sleep in a tent,cooked over an open fire,and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom 可知,"我"的野营条件非常艰苦.C项意为"他们带我去的旅途非常艰苦",引出下文,符合语境.故正确答案为C。
【18题详解】
由下文 Instead,we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner 可知,空格处是与下文形成转折的内容,而"我"此次旅行用了展开式营房.A项意为"这一次没有帐篷",与下文形成转折,符合语境.故正确答案为A。
【19题详解】
由第三段第一句 going on another fun-filled holiday 可知,"我"对这次旅行非常满意,而由下文 We have done a lot of it since 可知,"我们"都爱上了野营.F项意为"从这里旅行后,我全家都对野营产生了巨大的兴趣",承上启下,符合语境.故正确答案为F。
【20题详解】
由下文 sooner or later,everyone finds his or her way back to nature 可知,"我"希望每个人都能找到回归自然,也就是野营的个性化选择.形成这一观点的前提是"我"自己已经爱上了野营.E项意为"我必须承认我已经开始享受野营了",引出下文,符合语境.故正确答案为E。

About three decades ago, China was known as the "Bicycle Kingdom". But later on, bikes were replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.
But recent months have seen a recovery of the humble bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.
People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They're popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the "last mile" problem,which refers to the final leg of a person's journey.
" In places where the subway doesn't extend, where it's difficult to change from one kind of transport to another, it's so easy to get where you want to go with Mobike," Hu Hong,29,told AFP. She pedals(骑车)to her Shanghai real-estate job.
However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, vandalism(故意毁坏) and theft. Last month,two nurses in Beijing were placed under administrative punishment for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes. And in December, a man who stole a shared bike was sentenced to a 3-month detention(拘留),and fined 1 ,000 yuan by the Shanghai Minhang People's Court.
" Bike-sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a user-friendly experience,"said Liu Xiaoming,vice-minister of transport.
" But it's a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems."
Now, Chinese service operators are trying to solve the problems. For example, a bike- sharing company called Mobike sets a 100-point credit score for each user, with points taken in the case of bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80,bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes, up from 0.5 - 1 yuan.

A. Missing the business plane for the traffic jam.

C. Having troubles in changing from bus to taxi.
D. To remove the last rock in the way.
9. What reason causes many problems in bike-sharing
A. Some people make damage to the bikes on purpose.
B. Operators lack offline business experience.
C. The bike-sharing business is too complicated to run.
D. There are no relative laws on this business.
10. Why are the bike-sharing systems popular

C. They are equipped with GPS. D. They help solve the last mile problem.

A. Bickes Pedaling Back Into Styles

C. Riding a Mobicycle for Free
D. Bicycle Kingdom Became Famous Again

Rachel Carson was concerned about what was happenig to the environment. So in her book Silent Spring, she warned that some chemicals were poisoning the air, the water, the earth, and all its creatures. She imagined a time when spring would not bring the rebirth of flowers, trees, and the songs of birds. The book became a bestseller, and Ms. Carson was in great demand as a speaker. People lisened to her because what she said made sense, and because she was a scientist who knew her facts.
Rachel Carson was primarily interested in the world of sea and shore, so she became a marine biologst for the government. She studied and recorded facts about the sea' s plant and animal life, their special characteristics, and the nature of their environments. In 1951, she wrote The Sea Around Us, which brought her honors, fame, and respect around the world.
Ms. Carson then devoted herself full-time to research and writing. One thing much on her mind was the effect of modern technology on the natural environment. One day, a distressed friend wrote her to say that a plane spraying(喷洒) DDT had flown over her yard, and the next day several birds lay dead. Carson decided to act.
For four years she studied the use of pesticides(杀虫剂) in the United States, and then she wrote Silent Spring.
In her book Ms. Carson said that these pesticides would harm much more than insects. She explained that these poisons would pollute the environment. “Even if their effects are not immediately observable, they remain for years in the water and the soil, and they become part of the food eaten by animals and humans.
Besides, after a time, insects develop immunity to pesticides,” she said.
Recent studies have shown that pesticides can affect human brainwave activity and cause loss of memory and inability to concentrate. We should still remember Rachel Carson’s words, “I think we are challenged as we have never been challenged before to prove our mastery, not of nature, but of ourselves.”
12. Silent Spring is a book that__________
A. aims to raise people’s environmental awareness
B. stresses the importance of the cycle of nature
C. describes the author' s childhood experiences
D asks people to enjoy the beauty of spring
13. The underlined word “distressed” in Paragraph 3 probably means________
A. curious B. humorous C. excited D. worried
14. According to the text, Rachel Carson________
A. became world-famous due to Silent Spring
B. warned against the use of chemicals to kill insects
C. had a good knowledge of the planets in the universe
D. created a system for improving human brainwave activity
15. What Rachel Carson said in the last paragraph suggests that________
A. we should prove ourselves to be the ruler of this world
B. it's a chance for us to prove our mastery of nature
C. it's time for us to think about what we have done
D. settling on the earth is a challenge for humans
