一、完形(15空)(本大题共1小题)
Biodiversity is a concept that's commonly referenced, yet regularly misunderstood. The complex 1 not only refers to the unbelievable variety of life on Earth, but to how everything from genes to entire ecosystems interact to make the planet habitable. The bad news: science shows that biodiversity is 2 worldwide at a faster rate than at any time in human history. That’s obviously devastating for everything in nature--including us.
“If biodiversity disappears, so do people,” says Dr. Stephen Woodley, field ecologist and bio-diversity expert with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. “We are part of the 3 and we do not exist without it.”
Preventing such a catastrophe, says Woodley, begins with understanding why biodiversity is declining, and then taking action to 4 course.
“The two greatest 5 of biodiversity loss are habitat loss, primarily on land, and overexploitation, primarily in the ocean,” Woodley says. He explains that we can solve these problems by permanently 6 more lands and oceans and managing them for their conservation values.
That's the mission of the global Campaign for Nature, a partnership of the Wyss Foundation and the National Geographic Society. Instead of simply protecting 30 percent of the Earth, the 7 also encourages nations, in full partnership with local communities, to focus on the right 30 percent. Those areas, says Woodley, 8 the most important biodiversity, such as endangered species and ecosystems and rare species and ecosystems.
The campaign also recognizes the importance of 9 local rights. Local peoples manage or hold tenure(保有权) over lands that support about 80 percent of the world's biodiversity, making it 10 for these communities to be full partners in developing and implementing strategies.
11 , protecting the health of key biodiversity areas is vital for tackling climate change, says National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Enric Sala. Pairing the international Paris Agreement to combat climate change, Sala's paper asserts, “would 12 catastrophic(灾难性的) climate change, conserve species, and secure essential ecosystem services.”
“Biodiversity is stability,” says Sala. “Trees, wetlands, grasslands, peat bogs(泥炭沼泽), salt marshes(盐沼), healthy ocean ecosystems, mangroves(红树林), and plants 13 much of the carbon pollution humans put into the atmosphere. Yet, right now, less than half of the planet is in its natural state, which isn't enough.” Bottom line: Nature needs us to act-now. “Moving to Mars is not a(n) 14 ,” Sala adds. “The only conditions for our life and for the prosperity of human society are here on Earth ...we are 15 protecting it.”

Buildings with windows filled with water could save energy greatly, according to researchers backing the new technology.
Traditional glass windows increase the heat and temperature in the room in summers, and let the heat inside escape in winters, resulting in more electricity consumed for air-conditioners and more carbon emissions (排放). Now, researchers at Loughborough University (UK) have created a water-filled window that can overcome these problems.
The “water-filled glass” (WFG) system, designed by Dr. Matyas Gutai, involves a sheet of water being trapped between a panel (嵌板) of glass, and the water is practically invisible. The windows are connected to an indoor storage tank (箱) using pipes hidden in the walls, allowing water to flow easily between the windows and the tank.
This system allows the house to cool and reheat themselves automatically. When sunlight streams through the glass, the windows keep the buildings cool as the water takes in external and internal heat. This warm water then flows back to the tank. And when the outdoor temperature drops, the stored warm water is brought back to the walls to reheat the building using a monitoring system similar to central heating. The heated water can also be used for domestic (家用的) purposes. Although some electricity is required to pump the water back and forth, it uses much less energy than traditional air-conditioners or heaters.
Dr. Gutai claimed that WFG can save energy from 47% to 72% compared to when using traditional windows. Once launched into the market, the windows will surely make a real splash, appealing to a large crowd of environmentalists and contributing to reducing our carbon footprint. Currently, the inventor team is testing the windows in two areas with different weather conditions. The research reveals that WFG systems perform well in any inhabited climate—keeping buildings in hot climates cool and buildings in cool settings warm—without requiring an additional energy supply.;
16.What’s the weakness of traditional glass windows
A.They are easy to break into. B.They release carbon dioxide.
C.They fail to trap the heat. D.They lead to more energy consumption.;
17.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A.The structure of the WFG system.
B.The working process of the WFG system.
C.The advantages of water-filled windows.
D.The appearance of water-filled windows.;
18.What’s the characteristic of the WFG system
A.It is operated by man.
B.It needs no electricity at all.
C.It recycles the water in many ways.
D.It reheats the house via central heating.;
19.What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A.Make a big fortune. B.Draw lots of attention.

C
(2024·广东深圳高二调研)A “spark bird” is the species that inspires someone to start birdwatching, namely birding. For Trish O'Kane, that bird was the cardinal (红衣凤头鸟). Hearing cardinals' calls was an initial step towards over 1,960 hours of birding, 33 field notebooks and a career change. In her book, Birding to Change the World, Kane charts her transformation from a journalist to an environmentalist.
In 2005, a terrible hurricane hit O'Kane's hometown. After it, she had to cope with the loss of her home. In watching the cardinals and other birds, she found relief. Soon she started bringing her students along. “My students stared at me in disbelief when I told them I had never cared about birds before,” O'Kane writes. “I suddenly wondered how many creatures would die because of the way we lived.” She decided to pursue an environmentally conscious career. In 2007, she took a course to study environmental science.
Most of the book focuses on O'Kane's efforts to preserve Warner Park, an ideal location satisfying birding requirements for her class. She successfully campaigned to stop the construction of a parking lot. Her activism snowballed into a local bird watching and protecting organisation. It eventually became part of O'Kane's doctoral research, and launched a birding class that pairs middle school students with college student advisors.
The book shows readers that a good knowledge of nature doesn't require a degree. Take Jeremy, a seemingly uninterested boy in O'Kane's birding class. When reporters joined an outing, the normally quiet Jeremy started talking excitedly about the bunting, a small blue bird. O'Kane soon learnt that he had secretly taken to studying the field guide given to him by his advisor.
At its core, Birding to Change the World is about how people and birds today depend on one another. “For birds, that dependence is concrete. For thousands of years, our species has seen birds as a symbol of liberation,” O'Kane writes. In her case, it is liberation from the grief and depression that the hurricane brought. “Bird by bird, they carve a new pathway in my life, a joyful pathway.”
20.What made O'Kane pursue an environmentalist career
A.Her guilt about the serious harm to birds.
B.The desire to guide students to go birding.
C.The comfort from birding after the disaster.
D.Her students' disbelief in her ignorance of birds.
21.What can we learn about O'Kane from Paragraph 3
A.She worked hard on her latest book.
B.She protected Warner Park on her own.
C.Her birding class consisted of advisors.
D.Her activism led to positive chain effects.
22.What does Jeremy's experience suggest
A.Interest in nature differs between children and adults.
B.Children learn more from nature than from books.
C.Children are born curious about outdoor activities.
D.Potential in children can be released with proper guide.
23.Which is the best title for the text
A.A Joyful Experience of Birding
B.The Transformative Power of Birding
C.A Life Journey of an Environmentalist
D.The Self Appreciation of a Book Writer
Thanks to the 1999Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act, 26 endangered species in Australia have seen their populations recover.
It seems like that we’re always hearing about new animals that have become endangered, but there's some good news in Australia: 26 animal species no longer meet the criteria to be listed as threatened. Australia’s biodiversity has been in decline, with more than 1, 700 species and ecological communities known to beon the line. In 1999, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act was passed to introduce protections for endangered animals. The burrowing bettong is one of 26 Australian species that have returned from the edge of extinction.
Seemingly these are working, as a recent study published in the journalBiological Conservationreviewed the animals that were previously or currently listed as threatened between 2000 and December 2022, and discovered that 26 species had recovered to no longer meet the criteria. Species that have seen improvement include the charmingly named burrowing bettong, the golden bandicoot and the bulloo grey grasswren.
Factors behind this improvement include habitat management, control of introduced predators (捕食者) and translocation of endangered animals to predator-free islands. However, the species have not been officially delisted at this time. The EPBC Act only allows species to be delisted if doing so will not have a negative effect on their survival, and researchers believe that conservation gains could be lost should management efforts be stopped.
Dr Michelle Ward, a conservation scientist at WWF Australia, told The Guardian, “The key problem with delisting species is that then they no longer have monitoring and no longer need certain funding plans.”
However, it is promising that researchers have found signs of improvement. Hopefully this will continue among these and other species!
24. What do the underlined words “on the line” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Out of place. B.At risk.
C.Under control. D.On the increase.
25. What did a recent study find
A.Some animals are facing extinction.
B.Burrowing bettong is a charming species.
C.The criteria to be delisted were hard to meet.
D.26 endangered species’ populations are recovering.
26. The species haven’t been delisted officially because______.
A.their living situation is severe B.the delisting consequences are uncertain
C.the conservation gains are short D.the habitat management level is poor
27. What is the author’s attitude towards the researchers’ discovery
A.Unconcerned. B.Doubtful. C.Positive. D.Worried.

What’s Really Green
Most of us are aware that we must take care of the environment,and the majority of us take steps to save energy,and reduce waste and pollution.But recently,some“green truths” have been shown to be only half true,or even completely false. 1 
Paper shopping bags are better than plastic ones.
Plastic bags cause litter and are a danger to wild animals,which mistake them for food.It takes hundreds of years for plastic to break down,but much less time for paper.Because of this,people think paper bags are the better environmental choice.
However,making a paper bag uses four times as much energy as making a plastic bag and up to three times the amount of water. 2  In fact,both kinds of bags are bad for the environment.So,take a reusable bag with you when you go shopping.
 3 
It seems like common sense:eating local food should be better for the environment,because it does not need to be transported long distances and kept cold during transport. 4  It is the production of food,not its transport,that uses most of the energy and produces most of the greenhouse gases.In some cases,local food might have used more energy and produced more greenhouse gases than food grown a long way away,even taking into account its transport.
It’s better to take a shower than a bath.
 5  If you spend more than eight minutes in a shower,you’ll use as much water as in a bath—about 50 litres of water.Therefore,the key is to keep your shower time as short as possible.
Environmental awareness is now part of daily life.But it’s worth checking common ideas and opinions to see what’s really green.
A.So say no to plastic bags.
B.Here are some common ones.
C.Unfortunately,it is not that simple.
D.Eating local food is good for the environment.
E.The process also produces more greenhouse gases.
F.It’s time that we should take some measures to protect our environment.
G.It depends on how long you spend in the shower and how large your bath is.

36.G
【分析】本文是议论文。文章讲述了一些常见的环保误区,揭示了真正的环保理念。
【解析】32.分析语境可知,设空句起到引出下文的作用。结合后文提到的一些环保常识误区可知,选项B中“some common ones”与后文提到的例子相呼应。
33.根据前文可知,这里提及生产纸质购物袋的过程能源消耗大,是纸质购物袋的不环保之处,因此可推知,设空句应继续讲述其不环保之处。且选项E中“The process”与前文提及的生产过程相呼应,“also”与前文形成并列关系。
34.设空句为该部分标题句,根据后文“It seems like common sense:eating local food should be better for the environment,because...”可推知,该部分的常识误区为“吃当地食物是环保的”。
35.根据前文可知,这里提到了人们误认为吃当地的食物对环境更好的原因在于其不需要长途运输和冷藏,而后文提到了食物的不环保本质在于生产而不是运输过程,因此设空句作为中间句,应是一个转折句。
36.后文讲到淋浴时间超过八分钟所用的水与泡澡一样多,环保的关键在于缩短时间。而设空句作为该段首句,应引起下文,所以G项“关键在于你淋浴的时间和你的浴缸大小”符合语境。

To prevent tsunami-caused disasters, several countries worked together to expand the use of a tsunami-detecting system that had been developed in the United States by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The system 1 of an instrument installed on the seafloor — called a tsunameter — that measures pressure changes caused by a passing tsunami. The tsunameter sends a signal to a surface buoy(浮标), which sends the data to a satellite, which 2 the information to warning centers around the world.
By 2004 only six such detectors had been installed, all in the Pacific. There were 3 in the Indian Ocean, and many countries in the region had no national warning centers that could have 4 local communities. That policy mistake had tragic consequences. In Sumatra people had only a few minutes to run, 5 the tsunami took two hours to reach India, and some 16,000 people died there. “It was totally unnecessary,” says Paramesh Banerjee, a geo-physicist at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. “Technically it would have been relatively 6 to install a tsunami warning system for the Indian Ocean.”
There are now 53 detector buoys operating in the world’s oceans, including 6 of a planned 27 in the Indian Ocean. So a(n) 7 of the 2004 horror, in which the tsunami traveled for hours and still caught people by 8 is less likely. But buoys would not have helped in Sumatra. People living on coasts near a rupturing fault(地壳断层) can’t wait for 9 that a tsunami is on its way, which it often isn’t; they must flee as soon as the quake hits. The Japanese warning system relies not only on tsunameters but also on seismometers(地震测量仪) — a thousand of them 10 the country, the densest network anywhere — combined with a computer model that forecasts the scale of a tsunami from the magnitude(震级) and 11 of the quake.
In March, the system, which is run by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), did not work perfectly. JMA’s initial 12 , while the ground was still shaking, put the quake magnitude at 7.9 — but later analysis revealed a quake that, at magnitude 9, was 12 times larger. The tsunami forecast warned of waves of ten feet or more — but they reached 50 feet in Minanisanriku and in some places even 13 . But the human 14 to the warning was imperfect as well. “I think this time many people who lived above the high-water mark of the 1960 tsunami didn’t bother to run,” says Jin Sato, mayor of Minanisanriku. “Many of them died.” The town’s seawall, he thinks, also gave people a false sense of 15 .

The World Health Organization warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. Nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating as well as lighting.
These findings show that the use of deadly fuels in inefficient stoves, space heaters or lights is to blame for many of these deaths.
WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia and lung cancer. Women and girls are the main victims. These diseases can often result from the burning of solid fuels. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste, crop waste and charcoal.
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatermala and Peru,are also at risk.
Nigel Brace is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good cook-stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.There are already multiple technologies available for use in clean fuels.There is really quite an effective and reasonably low-cost alcohol stove made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company) that is now being tested out. LPG (Liquefield Petroleum Gas) cook is obviously widely available and efforts are under way to make those efficient. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves. WHO experts note that some new, safe and low-cost technologies that could help are already available. In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8.00. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.00.
But this,the agency says, is just a start. It is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances/devices.
16.What does the indoor pollution mainly result from
A.Poisonous fuels. B.High technology. C.Space heaters. D.Solar energy.
17.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed
A.By showing differences. B.By describing a process.
C.By making a list. D.By analyzing data.
18.What can we infer from the passage
A.Indoor pollution results in some deaths.
B.Most of the deaths are in developing countries.
C.The solid fuels are used in more effective ways.
D.There is no indoor pollution in developed countries.
19.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.LPG cooks are being tested out. B.Alcohol stoves are widely used now.
C.Electric induction stoves are expensive. D.Solar lamps are very cheap in Africa.
A lunch break—it’s an important and often necessary part of our working or school day. And now we’re spoilt (惯坏) with a lot of places to buy our lunch from, all offering attractive dishes and sandwiches to eat on the go.
But our appetite for buying our lunchtime fare is not just costing us money, there might be a cost in terms of damaging our planet too. Just grabbing a sandwich, crisps and maybe a cake and coffee can produce at least four items of waste. Paper boxes, cups, wrappers and plastic knives and forks are all part of our disposable feast in addition to the food waste we create. Some experts say throwing away food, which produces methane as it rots, is a bigger cause of climate change than plastics.
But regardless of what causes the most damage, the solution, according to an environmental campaign group called Hubbub, is to eat packed lunches. Tessa Tricks from the group says, “People are saying that they are buying food to take out because life has got busier.” And she says people think they are being more efficient; but she argues that it’s usually healthier and cheaper to make your own lunch. It means you can eat the things you really want and make the quantity that you actually need.
Of course, preparing your lunch is another thing to fit into your morning scramble (忙乱) of getting ready for work, so if you haven’t got time and you are going to buy lunch, an alternative that Hubbub suggests is to take your own container to a shop and ask them to put your food in it. The idea of using reusable coffee cups for hot drinks and refilling water bottles has already proved successful, so this could be another step in the right direction.;
20.What’s the second paragraph mainly about
A.Eating habits are suggested by experts. B.Buying lunch costs amounts of money.
C.Eating fast food does no good to health. D.Buying lunch causes damage to environment.;
21.What does Hubbub advise people to do
A.Eat what you like. B.Make lunch by yourself.
C.Stop eating packed lunches. D.Try to be more efficient in work.;
22.What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph mean
A.Eating packed lunches. B.Using reusable coffee cups.
C.Taking your own container. D.Using recyclable water bottles.;
23.What is the best title of the text
A.Is Lunchtime Fare More Tasty B.Is Your Lunch Costing the Earth
C.Are You Still Throwing Away Food D.Are You Ready to Prepare Your Lunch

Daniel Brush,an astonishing worker in gold,jewels and steel died on November 2022,aged 75.Students from a jewellery school once came to Brush’s studio,a loft in mid-Manhattan,awed to be meeting a figure who,to them,was a worker of miracles.
For 45 years in that loft,he had pursued his calling.His wife Olivia was the only company.He produced hundreds of objects of all sorts,most of them exquisite and many astonishingly small.Rather than use electricity,he laboured alone in a forest of antique machines and when tools frustrated him he made his own,displaying them in cupboards as art in themselves.
Above all else,he worked in gold.His obsession took fire when at 13 he saw an Etruscan gold bowl in the Victoria and Albert Museum.The ancient technique of applying gold beads as fine as sand-grains to a curved gold surface without solder(焊接),was stunning,but so was the lightness of spirit.
He resolved then that he would make such a bowl,and gold became the study of his life.Simply to watch it melt,turn to red-hot and white-hot,then glow purple,was magical.To hold pure gold grain and let it move slowly through his fingers restored his calm of spirit.His chief motivation,he said,was to understand the material and,through that,himself.He wondered why his heart had beaten so fast in the museum that day.Gold in particular had a message for him.His contact with this glorious metal might focus all his attention and help him to hear it.
He developed delicate craftsmanship,with each object virtually a museum piece.For Daniel Brush,he loved the idea that one might take a piece made by Brush out of a pocket,let its beauty pass from mind to mind,and smile.That too was what its maker was after.
24.What can we learn about Daniel Brush
A.Students visited him regularly.
B.He began to live in his loft in 1975.
C.He tended to use ancient crafts to produce objects.
D.Most objects he produced were of a surprisingly small size.
25.What is the main reason for his lifelong study of gold
A.He wanted to learn more about both gold and himself.
B.He wondered why his heart had beat fast in the museum.
C.His calm was restored when gold grain moved through fingers.
D.Gold had a particular message for him and he was eager to hear it.
26.Which of the following can best describe Daniel Brush
A.Stubborn. B.Wealthy.
C.Dedicated. D.Lonely.
27.What does the author try to emphasize in the last paragraph
A.Brush’s valuable works.
B.The admirers Brush expected.
C.Brush’s desire for fame.
D.The artistic ideal Brush pursued.
Old Problem, New Approaches
While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for some decades after CO emissions(排放) peak. So even if emissions were to begin to decrease today, we would still face climate change. Here I will stress some smarter and more creative examples of climate adaptation.
When it comes to adaptation, it is important to understand that climate change is a process. We are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard, but to a constantly shifting set of conditions. This is why, in part at least, the US National Climate Assessment says that: “There is no ‘one-size fits all’ adaptation.” Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost.
Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries. Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades. Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities. Rezwan is creating floating connectivity (连接) to replace flooded roads and highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.
Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in a mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man, The loss of glaciers there due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration came from seeing the waste of water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly timed irrigation(灌溉) water. Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has stored about 200,000 m of water. Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves will not last forever. Warming will overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will, perhaps, be able to find other means of adapting.
Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In southern Spain the sudden increase of greenhouses (which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and actually cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all cities. By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process.
In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World Bank has included the project on its list of “100 ideas to save the planet”.
More ordinary forms of adaptation arc happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area of land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been too wet for cropping. But during the past decade declining rainfall has allowed him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers in many countries are also adapting like this—cither by growing new produce or by growing the same things differently. This is common sense. But some suggestions for adapting are not. When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.
Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing ways. But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in that way, we may avoid the need to change in so many others.
28.What is special with regard to Rezwan’s project
A.The project receives government support.
B.Different organizations work with each other.
C.His organization makes the best of a bad situation.
D.The project connects flooded roads and highways.
29.What did the Ice Man do to reduce the effect of global warming
A.Storing ice for future use. B.Protecting the glaciers from melting.
C.Changing the irrigation time. D.Postponing the melting of the glaciers.
30.What do we learn from the Peru example
A.White paint is usually safe for buildings.
B.The global warming trend cannot be stopped.
C.This country is heating up too quickly.
D.Sunlight reflection may relieve global warming.
31.According to the author, polluting industries should .
A.adapt to carbon pollution B.plant highly profitable crops
C.leave carbon emission alone D.fight against carbon pollution
32.What’s the author’s preferred solution to global warming
A.Setting up a new standard. B.Reducing carbon emission.
C.Adapting to climate change. D.Monitoring polluting industries.

Why do women always feel cold
The “correct” temperature to be set often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men. Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences. 33 Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women “feel the cold ”more than men
Biological differences between men and women
At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat. 34 Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).
Women also tend to have a lower metabolic rate than men, which reduces heat production capacity during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops.
Hormonal differences
The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素) are found in large quantities in women. 35 Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.
Is it just humans
36 Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages. Therefore, the difference between heat- sensing mechanisms may provide an evolutionary advantage.
So how do we agree on the ideal temperature
In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. 37 These systems provide individualized thermal comfort to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space.
【选项】
A.The skin is the first line of defence.
B.They contribute to the core body and skin temperatures.
C.Animals have the same system to regulate body temperature.
D.They also have more fat between the skin and the muscles.
E.The preference for warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans.
F.Examples include desk fans, heated chairs or foot warmers.
G.Researches show women prefer a higher temperature to men, however.

16.细节理解题。根据第二段“These findings show that the use of deadly fuels in inefficient stoves, space heaters or lights is to blame for many of these deaths.(这些发现表明,在低效的炉子、空间加热器或照明中使用致命燃料是造成许多死亡的原因)”可知,室内污染的主要原因是有毒燃料。故选A。
17.推理判断题。根据第三段“WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia and lung cancer. Women and girls are the main victims. These diseases can often result from the burning of solid fuels. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste, crop waste and charcoal.(世卫组织官员说,室内污染会导致中风、心脏病和肺病、儿童肺炎和肺癌等疾病的过早死亡。妇女和女童是主要受害者。这些疾病往往是由燃烧固体燃料引起的。这些燃料包括木材、煤炭、动物粪便、作物粪便和木炭)”可推知,第三段主要是通过列举来展开的。故选C。

37.F
【详解】
〖导语〗这是一篇说明文,文章解释了女性比男性更能“感受到寒冷”的原因,这种现象也存在于动物界,最后文章也提到了解决办法;
33.根据上文“Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences.(两性之间的相似点总是多于不同点)”可知,两性之间的相似处点多于差异,下文“Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women ‘feel the cold’ more than men (人们普遍认为女性比男性更能‘感受到寒冷’,这一观点有科学依据吗 )”提到两性对温度的感知差异,故G项“然而,研究表明,女性比男性更喜欢更高的温度”符合语境,说明女性确实在室温的喜好上与男性有差异,与上文形成转折关系,且开启下文。故选G项;
34.根据本段主题句“Biological differences between men and women(男女之间的生理差异)”可知,此段分析女性的生理机制与男性的差异性而导致她们更怕冷,根据上文“At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat.(在体重大致相同的情况下,女性产生热量的肌肉往往较少)”及下文“Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).(因此,皮肤感觉更冷,因为它离血管略远)”推知,空处内容也和皮肤及肌肉有关,D项“她们的皮肤和肌肉之间也有更多的脂肪”最恰当,选项中的they指代上文提到的women。故选D项;
35.通过后文“Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.(雌激素会使四肢的血管扩张,这意味着更多的热量会流失到周围的空气中。黄体素会导致皮肤中的血管紧致,这意味着更少的血液流动来保持内部器官的温度,让女性感觉更凉爽)”对这两种物质“The hormones oestrogen (雌激素) and progesterone (黄体素)”的作用进行的分析可知,这两种物质主要是调节身体器官和皮肤的温度,B项“它们有助于提高身体核心和皮肤的温度”符合文意,引起下文,B项中的代词They指代上文的“The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素)”,故选B项;
36.通过下一句“Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages.(对许多种类的鸟类和哺乳动物的研究报告称,雄性通常聚集在阴凉的凉爽地区,而雌性和后代则呆在阳光充足的温暖环境中,因为幼雏在某些阶段无法调节自己的体温)”提到动物界雄性喜欢更凉爽的地方而雌性喜欢更温暖的地方可知,两性之间对温度偏好的差异性不仅仅局限于人类身上,动物界也有相似的例子,E项“对温暖温度的偏好并非人类所独有”符合语境。故选E项;
37.通过上一句“In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs.(在工作场所,个人舒适系统是加热或冷却的热系统,可以局部放置在单独的工作站上,如桌面、椅子或脚和腿附近)”提到在办公场所可以根据个人需要放置取暖设备可知,空处接着举例说明可以用哪些设备,F项“例如桌扇、加热椅或暖脚器”符合语境,且呼应下一句中的“These systems”。故选F项。

59.考查一般将来时的被动语态。句意:学生们一直在努力学习,他们相信他们的努力最终会获得成功。由句意可知,空处的内容为“回报”,短语:reward...with...“用……回报”。结合句中“success in the end”可知,最终会成功,因此空处的动作表示“将会发生”,所以时态用一般将来时;努力会得到回报,因而effort与动词reward为被动关系,所以用被动语态。因而空处填will be rewarded with,故填will be rewarded with。
60.考查短语和过去分词。句意:那本新出版的历史书以其生动的图片展现了古老的文明,深受读者的喜爱。短语:bring...to life“使苏醒”,根据空后“by many vivid pictures”可知,此处用过去分词短语作补语,故填brought to life。
61.考查短语和动名词。句意:帕特里克停下来参考了他的笔记,然后继续他后来关于俄罗斯和乌克兰之间紧张关系的示威。根据句意,空处的内容为“继续”,短语:proceed to“继续”,before此处为介词,所以空处用动名词,故填proceeding to。

64.考查动词短语。句意:新政策实施以来,失业率迅速下降。根据句意及空前since the new policy可知,空处应使用动词短语,作从句谓语,carry out意为“实施”,符合语境,since引导的时间状语从句,使用一般过去时,且policy与carry out之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,主语为单数,be动词用was。故填was carried out。
65.考查动词短语。句意:采取措施保护濒危动物是我们现在必须做的事。根据句意及空后to protect endangered animals可知,空处作句子的主语,take measures意为“采取措施”,符合语境,且需用动名词作主语,句首单词首字母大写。故填Taking measures。
66.考查动词短语。句意:这个聪明的女孩习惯了在她现在的职业中与各种各样的人打交道。根据句意及空后all kinds of people可知,deal with 意为“与……打交道,处理”,符合语境,be accustomed to doing sth.是固定搭配,意为“习惯于做某事”,故空处应使用动名词形式。故填dealing with。
67.考查固定短语。句意:飓风摧毁了几十个村庄,刮倒了成千上万棵树。根据句意及空前blew away和空后farming villages可知,空处应使用短语dozens of“几十,很多”,作定语,修饰可数名词复数。故填dozens of。

The World Health Organization warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. Nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating as well as lighting.
These findings show that the use of deadly fuels in inefficient stoves, space heaters or lights is to blame for many of these deaths.
WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia and lung cancer. Women and girls are the main victims. These diseases can often result from the burning of solid fuels. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste, crop waste and charcoal.
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatermala and Peru,are also at risk.
Nigel Brace is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good cook-stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.There are already multiple technologies available for use in clean fuels.There is really quite an effective and reasonably low-cost alcohol stove made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company) that is now being tested out. LPG (Liquefield Petroleum Gas) cook is obviously widely available and efforts are under way to make those efficient. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves. WHO experts note that some new, safe and low-cost technologies that could help are already available. In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8.00. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.00.
But this,the agency says, is just a start. It is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances/devices.
16.What does the indoor pollution mainly result from
A.Poisonous fuels. B.High technology. C.Space heaters. D.Solar energy.
17.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed
A.By showing differences. B.By describing a process.
C.By making a list. D.By analyzing data.
18.What can we infer from the passage
A.Indoor pollution results in some deaths.
B.Most of the deaths are in developing countries.
C.The solid fuels are used in more effective ways.
D.There is no indoor pollution in developed countries.
19.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.LPG cooks are being tested out. B.Alcohol stoves are widely used now.
C.Electric induction stoves are expensive. D.Solar lamps are very cheap in Africa.
Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
20.What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A.Help increase grocery sales.
B.Recycle the waste material.
C.Stop things falling off trucks.
D.Argue for the use of plastic bags.
21.What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.Bans on plastic bags.
B.Effects of city development.
C.Headaches caused by garbage.
D.Plastic bags hung in trees.
22.What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A.They are quite expensive.
B.Replacing them can be difficult.
C.They are less strong than plastic bags.
D.Producing them requires more energy.
23.What is the best title for the text
A.Plastic, Paper or Neither
B.Industry, Pollution and Environment
C.Recycle or Throw Away
D.Garbage Collection and Waste Control
When you walk on a sandy beach, it takes more energy than walking down a sidewalk—because the weight of your body pushes into the sand. It turns out that the same thing is true for vehicles driving on roads.
“The weight of the vehicles creates a very shallow indentation in the pavement—and it makes it such that it's continuously driving up a very shallow hill,” said Jeremy Gregory, a scientist at M. I. T...He modeled with his teammates how much energy could be saved-and greenhouse gases avoided—by simply hardening the nation's roads and highways.
And they found that hardening 10 percent of the nation's roads every year could prevent emissions equal to 440 megatons of carbon dioxide over the next 5 decades—that amount is equal to how much CO, you'd spare the planet by keeping a billion barrels of oil in the ground or by growing 7 billion trees for a decade. It reduces 0.5% of projected transportation emissions over that time period.
As for how to harden roads, Gregory says you could combine small amounts of certain fiber with high technology into paving materials. Or you could pave with specially-made concrete, which is harder than ordinary construction materials.
This system could also be a way to shave carbon emissions without some of the usual barriers. “Usually, when it comes to reducing emissions in the transportation department, you're talking about changing policies related to vehicles and also driver behavior, which involves millions and millions of people—as opposed to changing the way we design and preserve our pavements. That's just on the order of thousands of people who are working in transportation agencies.” And when it comes to improving our streets and highways-those agencies are where you might say the rubber meets the road.
24.How does the author develop Paragraph 3
A.By giving examples. B.By making classification.
C.By listing figures D.By analyzing causes.
25.What does Gregory suggest for hardening roads
A.Mixing fiber with special concrete. B.Changing regular paving materials.
C.Creating hi-tech computer models. D.Using ordinary building materials.
26.What is an advantage of the road-hardening system
A.It reduces construction costs. B.It profits transportation agencies.
C.It regulates driver behavior. D.It avoids involving too many people.
27.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Walking Down Beaches or Sidewalks B.Hardening Roads Helps Save Energy.
C.How to Cut Down Carbon Emissions D.A System of Hardening Roads.
Old Problem, New Approaches
While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for some decades after CO emissions(排放) peak. So even if emissions were to begin to decrease today, we would still face climate change. Here I will stress some smarter and more creative examples of climate adaptation.
When it comes to adaptation, it is important to understand that climate change is a process. We are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard, but to a constantly shifting set of conditions. This is why, in part at least, the US National Climate Assessment says that: “There is no ‘one-size fits all’ adaptation.” Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost.
Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries. Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades. Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities. Rezwan is creating floating connectivity (连接) to replace flooded roads and highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.
Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in a mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man, The loss of glaciers there due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration came from seeing the waste of water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly timed irrigation(灌溉) water. Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has stored about 200,000 m of water. Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves will not last forever. Warming will overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will, perhaps, be able to find other means of adapting.
Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In southern Spain the sudden increase of greenhouses (which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and actually cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all cities. By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process.
In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World Bank has included the project on its list of “100 ideas to save the planet”.
More ordinary forms of adaptation arc happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area of land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been too wet for cropping. But during the past decade declining rainfall has allowed him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers in many countries are also adapting like this—cither by growing new produce or by growing the same things differently. This is common sense. But some suggestions for adapting are not. When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.
Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing ways. But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in that way, we may avoid the need to change in so many others.
28.What is special with regard to Rezwan’s project
A.The project receives government support.
B.Different organizations work with each other.
C.His organization makes the best of a bad situation.
D.The project connects flooded roads and highways.
29.What did the Ice Man do to reduce the effect of global warming
A.Storing ice for future use. B.Protecting the glaciers from melting.
C.Changing the irrigation time. D.Postponing the melting of the glaciers.
30.What do we learn from the Peru example
A.White paint is usually safe for buildings.
B.The global warming trend cannot be stopped.
C.This country is heating up too quickly.
D.Sunlight reflection may relieve global warming.
31.According to the author, polluting industries should .
A.adapt to carbon pollution B.plant highly profitable crops
C.leave carbon emission alone D.fight against carbon pollution
32.What’s the author’s preferred solution to global warming
A.Setting up a new standard. B.Reducing carbon emission.

Why do women always feel cold
The “correct” temperature to be set often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men. Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences. 33 Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women “feel the cold ”more than men
Biological differences between men and women
At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat. 34 Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).
Women also tend to have a lower metabolic rate than men, which reduces heat production capacity during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops.
Hormonal differences
The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素) are found in large quantities in women. 35 Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.
Is it just humans
36 Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages. Therefore, the difference between heat- sensing mechanisms may provide an evolutionary advantage.
So how do we agree on the ideal temperature
In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. 37 These systems provide individualized thermal comfort to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space.
【选项】
A.The skin is the first line of defence.
B.They contribute to the core body and skin temperatures.
C.Animals have the same system to regulate body temperature.
D.They also have more fat between the skin and the muscles.
E.The preference for warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans.
F.Examples include desk fans, heated chairs or foot warmers.
G.Researches show women prefer a higher temperature to men, however.

16.细节理解题。根据第二段“These findings show that the use of deadly fuels in inefficient stoves, space heaters or lights is to blame for many of these deaths.(这些发现表明,在低效的炉子、空间加热器或照明中使用致命燃料是造成许多死亡的原因)”可知,室内污染的主要原因是有毒燃料。故选A。
17.推理判断题。根据第三段“WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia and lung cancer. Women and girls are the main victims. These diseases can often result from the burning of solid fuels. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste, crop waste and charcoal.(世卫组织官员说,室内污染会导致中风、心脏病和肺病、儿童肺炎和肺癌等疾病的过早死亡。妇女和女童是主要受害者。这些疾病往往是由燃烧固体燃料引起的。这些燃料包括木材、煤炭、动物粪便、作物粪便和木炭)”可推知,第三段主要是通过列举来展开的。故选C。
18.推理判断题。根据第四段“The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatermala and Peru,are also at risk.(联合国发现,撒哈拉以南非洲地区超过95%的家庭依靠固体燃料做饭。该组织说,印度、中国以及危地马拉和秘鲁等拉美国家的大量人口也面临风险)”可推知,大多数死亡发生在发展中国家。故选B。

24.
推理判断题。根据第三段“And they found that hardening 10 percent of the nation's roads every year could prevent emissions equal to 440 megatons of carbon dioxide over the next 5 decades—that amount is equal to how much CO, you'd spare the planet by keeping a billion barrels of oil in the ground or by growing 7 billion trees for a decade. It reduces 0.5% of projected transportation emissions over that time period.(他们发现,每年对全国10%的道路进行硬化,可以在未来50年内防止相当于440兆吨二氧化碳的排放——这个数量相当于你将10亿桶石油留在地下或在十年内种植70亿棵树,就可以使地球免受多少二氧化碳。它减少了该时间段内预计交通排放的0.5%)”可推知,作者通过列数字展开第三段。故选C。
25.

That's just on the order of thousands of people who are working in transportation agencies.”(这一系统也可能是一种减少碳排放的方法,而不存在一些常见的障碍。“通常,当涉及到交通部门的减排时,你谈论的是改变与车辆和司机行为相关的政策,这涉及到数百万人,而不是改变我们的设计和保护人行道的方式。这只是成千上万在运输机构工作的人的要求。” )”可知,道路硬化系统的优点是可以避免涉及太多的人。故选D。
27.
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“He modeled with his teammates how much energy could be saved-and greenhouse gases avoided—by simply hardening the nation's roads and highways.(他和他的队友们一起模仿,仅仅通过加固国家的公路和高速公路,就可以节省多少能源,并避免温室气体的排放)”结合文章主要说明了对道路进行硬化可以减少二氧化碳的排放,更节省能源。介绍了这种措施的优势和操作方式。可知,B选项“硬化道路有助于节约能源”最符合文章标题。故选B。

His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities.”(穆罕默德·雷兹万在别人只看到灾难的地方看到了机会。他的非营利组织经营着100艘河船,这些船可以作为漂浮的图书馆、学校和诊所,并配备了太阳能电池板和其他通讯设施。)可推知,雷兹万的项目的特别之处是他的组织能尽可能利用糟糕的情况。故选C项;
29.推理判断题。根据第四段中“He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring.”(他把浪费的水倒入浅盆里,在那里结冰,并储存到春天。)可推知,冰人储存冰以备将来使用,以此来减少全球变暖的影响。故选A项;
30.推理判断题。根据第五段中“By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process.”(通过将建筑物涂成白色,城市可能会减缓变暖的进程。)以及第六段中“In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice.”(在秘鲁,当地农民在一座冰川已经受到气候变化的影响的山上,开始把整个山峰涂成白色,希望增加的反光能恢复赋予生命的冰。)可推知,从秘鲁的例子可以得出阳光反射可以缓解全球变暖。故选D项;
31.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.”(当污染行业争辩说,我们已经失去了控制碳污染的战斗,别无选择,只能适应,这是一个无稽之谈,旨在为一切照旧。)可知,作者认为污染行业应该与碳污染作斗争。故选D项;

【详解】
〖导语〗这是一篇说明文,文章解释了女性比男性更能“感受到寒冷”的原因,这种现象也存在于动物界,最后文章也提到了解决办法;
33.根据上文“Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences.(两性之间的相似点总是多于不同点)”可知,两性之间的相似处点多于差异,下文“Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women ‘feel the cold’ more than men (人们普遍认为女性比男性更能‘感受到寒冷’,这一观点有科学依据吗 )”提到两性对温度的感知差异,故G项“然而,研究表明,女性比男性更喜欢更高的温度”符合语境,说明女性确实在室温的喜好上与男性有差异,与上文形成转折关系,且开启下文。故选G项;
34.根据本段主题句“Biological differences between men and women(男女之间的生理差异)”可知,此段分析女性的生理机制与男性的差异性而导致她们更怕冷,根据上文“At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat.(在体重大致相同的情况下,女性产生热量的肌肉往往较少)”及下文“Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).(因此,皮肤感觉更冷,因为它离血管略远)”推知,空处内容也和皮肤及肌肉有关,D项“她们的皮肤和肌肉之间也有更多的脂肪”最恰当,选项中的they指代上文提到的women。故选D项;
35.通过后文“Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.(雌激素会使四肢的血管扩张,这意味着更多的热量会流失到周围的空气中。黄体素会导致皮肤中的血管紧致,这意味着更少的血液流动来保持内部器官的温度,让女性感觉更凉爽)”对这两种物质“The hormones oestrogen (雌激素) and progesterone (黄体素)”的作用进行的分析可知,这两种物质主要是调节身体器官和皮肤的温度,B项“它们有助于提高身体核心和皮肤的温度”符合文意,引起下文,B项中的代词They指代上文的“The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素)”,故选B项;
36.通过下一句“Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages.(对许多种类的鸟类和哺乳动物的研究报告称,雄性通常聚集在阴凉的凉爽地区,而雌性和后代则呆在阳光充足的温暖环境中,因为幼雏在某些阶段无法调节自己的体温)”提到动物界雄性喜欢更凉爽的地方而雌性喜欢更温暖的地方可知,两性之间对温度偏好的差异性不仅仅局限于人类身上,动物界也有相似的例子,E项“对温暖温度的偏好并非人类所独有”符合语境。故选E项;
37.通过上一句“In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs.(在工作场所,个人舒适系统是加热或冷却的热系统,可以局部放置在单独的工作站上,如桌面、椅子或脚和腿附近)”提到在办公场所可以根据个人需要放置取暖设备可知,空处接着举例说明可以用哪些设备,F项“例如桌扇、加热椅或暖脚器”符合语境,且呼应下一句中的“These systems”。故选F项。

By 2004 only six such detectors had been installed, all in the Pacific. There were 3 in the Indian Ocean, and many countries in the region had no national warning centers that could have 4 local communities. That policy mistake had tragic consequences. In Sumatra people had only a few minutes to run, 5 the tsunami took two hours to reach India, and some 16,000 people died there. “It was totally unnecessary,” says Paramesh Banerjee, a geo-physicist at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore. “Technically it would have been relatively 6 to install a tsunami warning system for the Indian Ocean.”
There are now 53 detector buoys operating in the world’s oceans, including 6 of a planned 27 in the Indian Ocean. So a(n) 7 of the 2004 horror, in which the tsunami traveled for hours and still caught people by 8 is less likely. But buoys would not have helped in Sumatra. People living on coasts near a rupturing fault(地壳断层) can’t wait for 9 that a tsunami is on its way, which it often isn’t; they must flee as soon as the quake hits. The Japanese warning system relies not only on tsunameters but also on seismometers(地震测量仪) — a thousand of them 10 the country, the densest network anywhere — combined with a computer model that forecasts the scale of a tsunami from the magnitude(震级) and 11 of the quake.
In March, the system, which is run by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), did not work perfectly. JMA’s initial 12 , while the ground was still shaking, put the quake magnitude at 7.9 — but later analysis revealed a quake that, at magnitude 9, was 12 times larger. The tsunami forecast warned of waves of ten feet or more — but they reached 50 feet in Minanisanriku and in some places even 13 . But the human 14 to the warning was imperfect as well. “I think this time many people who lived above the high-water mark of the 1960 tsunami didn’t bother to run,” says Jin Sato, mayor of Minanisanriku. “Many of them died.” The town’s seawall, he thinks, also gave people a false sense of 15 .

The World Health Organization warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. Nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating as well as lighting.
These findings show that the use of deadly fuels in inefficient stoves, space heaters or lights is to blame for many of these deaths.
WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease, childhood pneumonia and lung cancer. Women and girls are the main victims. These diseases can often result from the burning of solid fuels. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste, crop waste and charcoal.
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of households in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatermala and Peru,are also at risk.
Nigel Brace is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good cook-stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.There are already multiple technologies available for use in clean fuels.There is really quite an effective and reasonably low-cost alcohol stove made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company) that is now being tested out. LPG (Liquefield Petroleum Gas) cook is obviously widely available and efforts are under way to make those efficient. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves. WHO experts note that some new, safe and low-cost technologies that could help are already available. In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8.00. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.00.
But this,the agency says, is just a start. It is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances/devices.
16.What does the indoor pollution mainly result from
A.Poisonous fuels. B.High technology. C.Space heaters. D.Solar energy.
17.How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed
A.By showing differences. B.By describing a process.
C.By making a list. D.By analyzing data.
18.What can we infer from the passage
A.Indoor pollution results in some deaths.
B.Most of the deaths are in developing countries.
C.The solid fuels are used in more effective ways.
D.There is no indoor pollution in developed countries.
19.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.LPG cooks are being tested out. B.Alcohol stoves are widely used now.
C.Electric induction stoves are expensive. D.Solar lamps are very cheap in Africa.
Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.
Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.
Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.
20.What has Steven Stein been hired to do
A.Help increase grocery sales.
B.Recycle the waste material.
C.Stop things falling off trucks.
D.Argue for the use of plastic bags.
21.What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.Bans on plastic bags.
B.Effects of city development.
C.Headaches caused by garbage.
D.Plastic bags hung in trees.
22.What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers
A.They are quite expensive.
B.Replacing them can be difficult.
C.They are less strong than plastic bags.
D.Producing them requires more energy.
23.What is the best title for the text
A.Plastic, Paper or Neither
B.Industry, Pollution and Environment
C.Recycle or Throw Away
D.Garbage Collection and Waste Control
With greater climate disasters lying ahead, it is natural for us to make every effort to stop a series of floods, unusual snowstorms, and alarming reports from scientists. For many of us, part of that means running out to buy reusable drinking tubes, organic cleaners, and packaging-free products.
However, before you are joyful of your “green” purchases, take a second to consider a principle that should be obvious: simply consuming less is better for the planet. After all, every new item a factory pumps out requires some resources to produce. But in the confusing stream of environmental news, this simple truth can get lost. Take plastic bag bans for instance. If your city is getting rid of single-use shopping bags, it can be tempting to pay for that fashionable organic cotton bag hanging in the check-outline of supermarkets. However, experts who have analyzed the data on environmental impact insist that growing cotton is actually no better for the Earth than producing the conventional plastic bag. Any bag you already own is your best bet for carrying your groceries if you care about sustainability.
It is not just the Earth that will be happier if you buy less. You will feel more contented too. There is a common view that green buying patterns mean people are going green. However, it doesn’t seem to be that way. Reduced consumption has positive effects on increased well-being, but you don’t see that with “green” consumption.
Many studies have shown that materialism in general makes us unhappy and lonely. It is perfectly possible to be a materialist and an environmentalist at the same time. Lusting (欲望) for every new “green” product on the market might make you feel good about yourself but it presents the same emotional traps as lusting for whatever the Joneses next door are buying. If you relieve yourself of that burden of ownership, most people report feeling a lot better and freer.;

Old Problem, New Approaches
While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for some decades after CO emissions(排放) peak. So even if emissions were to begin to decrease today, we would still face climate change. Here I will stress some smarter and more creative examples of climate adaptation.
When it comes to adaptation, it is important to understand that climate change is a process. We are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard, but to a constantly shifting set of conditions. This is why, in part at least, the US National Climate Assessment says that: “There is no ‘one-size fits all’ adaptation.” Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost.
Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries. Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades. Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities. Rezwan is creating floating connectivity (连接) to replace flooded roads and highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.
Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in a mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man, The loss of glaciers there due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration came from seeing the waste of water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly timed irrigation(灌溉) water. Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has stored about 200,000 m of water. Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves will not last forever. Warming will overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will, perhaps, be able to find other means of adapting.
Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In southern Spain the sudden increase of greenhouses (which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and actually cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all cities. By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process.
In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World Bank has included the project on its list of “100 ideas to save the planet”.
More ordinary forms of adaptation arc happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area of land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been too wet for cropping. But during the past decade declining rainfall has allowed him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers in many countries are also adapting like this—cither by growing new produce or by growing the same things differently. This is common sense. But some suggestions for adapting are not. When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.
Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing ways. But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in that way, we may avoid the need to change in so many others.
28.What is special with regard to Rezwan’s project
A.The project receives government support.
B.Different organizations work with each other.
C.His organization makes the best of a bad situation.
D.The project connects flooded roads and highways.
29.What did the Ice Man do to reduce the effect of global warming
A.Storing ice for future use. B.Protecting the glaciers from melting.
C.Changing the irrigation time. D.Postponing the melting of the glaciers.
30.What do we learn from the Peru example
A.White paint is usually safe for buildings.
B.The global warming trend cannot be stopped.
C.This country is heating up too quickly.
D.Sunlight reflection may relieve global warming.
31.According to the author, polluting industries should .
A.adapt to carbon pollution B.plant highly profitable crops
C.leave carbon emission alone D.fight against carbon pollution
32.What’s the author’s preferred solution to global warming
A.Setting up a new standard. B.Reducing carbon emission.
C.Adapting to climate change. D.Monitoring polluting industries.

Why do women always feel cold
The “correct” temperature to be set often forms the basis of office arguments between women and men. Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences. 33 Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women “feel the cold ”more than men
Biological differences between men and women
At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat. 34 Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).
Women also tend to have a lower metabolic rate than men, which reduces heat production capacity during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops.
Hormonal differences
The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素) are found in large quantities in women. 35 Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.
Is it just humans
36 Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages. Therefore, the difference between heat- sensing mechanisms may provide an evolutionary advantage.
So how do we agree on the ideal temperature
In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. 37 These systems provide individualized thermal comfort to meet personal needs without affecting others in the same space.
【选项】
A.The skin is the first line of defence.
B.They contribute to the core body and skin temperatures.
C.Animals have the same system to regulate body temperature.
D.They also have more fat between the skin and the muscles.
E.The preference for warmer temperatures isn’t unique to humans.
F.Examples include desk fans, heated chairs or foot warmers.
G.Researches show women prefer a higher temperature to men, however.

【解析】20.细节理解题。根据第一段中one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.和第二段中plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.可知,塑料袋生产商雇用Steven Stein是为了证明他们的产品并不像大多数人想象的那样对地球有害,为使用塑料袋进行辩护。故选D。
21.词义猜测题。上文介绍在许多美国大城市塑料袋被禁用,看到这种现状,塑料袋生产商雇用Steven Stein等科学家是为了证明他们的产品并不像大多数人想象的那样对地球有害。headwinds意为“逆风”,此处指塑料袋被禁用的现状,即Bans on plastic bags,故选A。
22.细节理解题。根据第四段中However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make.可知,生产耐用且能重复使用的袋子需要更多的能源,故选D。
23.主旨大意题。文章讲述了使用塑料袋会造成环境问题,纸袋容易回收,但生产和运输需要更多的能源,环保主义者希望消费者使用耐用可重复使用的袋子。对这三种方式进行了对比,Plastic, Paper or Neither既能概括全文,又能吸引读者,最适合作为标题。故选A。
【点睛】概括主旨的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句,要看懂全文的主要内容,明白了主要内容就能准确概括文章标题)。小题4要求概括标题,本文讲述了使用塑料袋造成的环境问题,纸袋容易回收,但生产和运输需要更多的能源,希望消费者使用耐用可重复使用的袋子。对这三种方式进行了对比,Plastic, Paper or Neither既能概括全文,又能吸引读者,适合作为标题。

【详解】本文是一篇议论文。文章认为减少消费比绿色消费更加环保,选择减少消费不仅对地球有益,而且可以提升个人的幸福感;
24.推理判断题。根据第一段“With greater climate disasters lying ahead, it is natural for us to make every effort to stop a series of floods, unusual snowstorms, and alarming reports from scientists. For many of us, part of that means running out to buy reusable drinking tubes, organic cleaners, and packaging-free products.(面对更大的气候灾难,我们很自然地要尽一切努力阻止一系列的洪水、不寻常的暴风雪和科学家们令人担忧的报告。对我们中的许多人来说,这部分意味着要去买可重复使用的饮用管、有机清洁剂和无包装产品。)”和第二段中“However, before you are joyful of your “green” purchases, take a second to consider a principle that should be obvious: simply consuming less is better for the planet.(然而,在你为你的“绿色”消费感到高兴之前,花点时间考虑一个显而易见的原则:简单地少消费对地球更好。)”可知,第一段介绍了目前的气候问题使得很多人会选择绿色消费,但实际上这种消费方式并不明智。由此可推知,第一段的作用是为了引出全文的话题:绿色消费不如少消费。故选A项;
25.推理判断题。根据第二段中“However, experts who have analyzed the data on environmental impact insist that growing cotton is actually no better for the Earth than producing the conventional plastic bag. Any bag you already own is your best bet for carrying your groceries if you care about sustainability.(然而,分析了环境影响数据的专家坚持认为,种植棉花实际上并不比生产传统的塑料袋对地球更好。如果你关心可持续性,任何你已经拥有的包都是你携带杂货的最佳选择。)”可知,受到禁塑令的影响很多人会选择购买有机的棉布袋,但实际上这种选择对地球并不友好,更好的选择是使用身边已有的袋子。由此推知,作者提到禁塑令是为了呼吁减少消费。故选B项;
26.细节理解题。根据第三段中“There is a common view that green buying patterns mean people are going green.(有一种普遍的观点认为,绿色购买模式意味着人们正在走向绿色。)”可知,大多数人相信购买绿色产品意味着具有环保意识。故选C项;
27.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章认为目前流行的绿色消费实际上不是明智的,更为环保的方式是减少消费,选择减少消费不仅对地球有益,而且可以提升个人的幸福感。由此可知,减少消费优于绿色消费,D项符合文章大意,适合作为文章标题。故选D项。

【详解】这是一篇议论文。对于全球变暖这种旧问题,作者认为应该用新方式去解决,最有效的方法是调整我们的能源系统,以减少碳污染的排放;
28.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities.”(穆罕默德·雷兹万在别人只看到灾难的地方看到了机会。他的非营利组织经营着100艘河船,这些船可以作为漂浮的图书馆、学校和诊所,并配备了太阳能电池板和其他通讯设施。)可推知,雷兹万的项目的特别之处是他的组织能尽可能利用糟糕的情况。故选C项;
29.推理判断题。根据第四段中“He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring.”(他把浪费的水倒入浅盆里,在那里结冰,并储存到春天。)可推知,冰人储存冰以备将来使用,以此来减少全球变暖的影响。故选A项;
30.推理判断题。根据第五段中“By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process.”(通过将建筑物涂成白色,城市可能会减缓变暖的进程。)以及第六段中“In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice.”(在秘鲁,当地农民在一座冰川已经受到气候变化的影响的山上,开始把整个山峰涂成白色,希望增加的反光能恢复赋予生命的冰。)可推知,从秘鲁的例子可以得出阳光反射可以缓解全球变暖。故选D项;
31.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.”(当污染行业争辩说,我们已经失去了控制碳污染的战斗,别无选择,只能适应,这是一个无稽之谈,旨在为一切照旧。)可知,作者认为污染行业应该与碳污染作斗争。故选D项;
32.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution.”(但最明智的适应方式无疑是调整我们的能源系统,以减少碳污染的排放。)可知,全球变暖最好的解决方法时减少碳排放。故选B项。

37.F
【详解】
〖导语〗这是一篇说明文,文章解释了女性比男性更能“感受到寒冷”的原因,这种现象也存在于动物界,最后文章也提到了解决办法;
33.根据上文“Between the sexes, there are always more similarities than differences.(两性之间的相似点总是多于不同点)”可知,两性之间的相似处点多于差异,下文“Is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women ‘feel the cold’ more than men (人们普遍认为女性比男性更能‘感受到寒冷’,这一观点有科学依据吗 )”提到两性对温度的感知差异,故G项“然而,研究表明,女性比男性更喜欢更高的温度”符合语境,说明女性确实在室温的喜好上与男性有差异,与上文形成转折关系,且开启下文。故选G项;
34.根据本段主题句“Biological differences between men and women(男女之间的生理差异)”可知,此段分析女性的生理机制与男性的差异性而导致她们更怕冷,根据上文“At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to generate heat.(在体重大致相同的情况下,女性产生热量的肌肉往往较少)”及下文“Thus, the skin feels colder, as it’s slightly further away from blood vessels(血管).(因此,皮肤感觉更冷,因为它离血管略远)”推知,空处内容也和皮肤及肌肉有关,D项“她们的皮肤和肌肉之间也有更多的脂肪”最恰当,选项中的they指代上文提到的women。故选D项;
35.通过后文“Oestrogen enlarges blood vessels at the extremities, meaning more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progestcrone can cause the vessels in the skin to tighten, meaning less blood will flow to keep the internal organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler.(雌激素会使四肢的血管扩张,这意味着更多的热量会流失到周围的空气中。黄体素会导致皮肤中的血管紧致,这意味着更少的血液流动来保持内部器官的温度,让女性感觉更凉爽)”对这两种物质“The hormones oestrogen (雌激素) and progesterone (黄体素)”的作用进行的分析可知,这两种物质主要是调节身体器官和皮肤的温度,B项“它们有助于提高身体核心和皮肤的温度”符合文意,引起下文,B项中的代词They指代上文的“The hormones oestrogen(雌激素) and progesterone(黄体素)”,故选B项;
36.通过下一句“Studies on many species of birds and mammals report that males commonly gather in cooler areas where there is shade, while females and offspring stay in warmer environments where there is sunlight, as the young are unable to regulate their own body temperature during some stages.(对许多种类的鸟类和哺乳动物的研究报告称,雄性通常聚集在阴凉的凉爽地区,而雌性和后代则呆在阳光充足的温暖环境中,因为幼雏在某些阶段无法调节自己的体温)”提到动物界雄性喜欢更凉爽的地方而雌性喜欢更温暖的地方可知,两性之间对温度偏好的差异性不仅仅局限于人类身上,动物界也有相似的例子,E项“对温暖温度的偏好并非人类所独有”符合语境。故选E项;
37.通过上一句“In the workplace, personal comfort systems are thermal systems that heat or cool and can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs.(在工作场所,个人舒适系统是加热或冷却的热系统,可以局部放置在单独的工作站上,如桌面、椅子或脚和腿附近)”提到在办公场所可以根据个人需要放置取暖设备可知,空处接着举例说明可以用哪些设备,F项“例如桌扇、加热椅或暖脚器”符合语境,且呼应下一句中的“These systems”。故选F项。

二、阅读单选(本大题共4小题)
From littering the highest mountain peak to the deepest sea, we have messed up the environment and not left a single spot clean. Plastic pollution was also the theme for the last year’s Environment Day, but has anything changed
With a “hope” to change things, a 150 feet long and 12 feet high “Wall of Hope” has been constructed using 15,000 discarded bottles collected from various sources such as streets and roads in Mussoorie and the surrounding region, which encourages the tourists to keep the surroundings clean.
Mussoorie attracts armies of visitors from neighboring cities every month so that it sometimes gets choked by over-tourism. But then, people hardly paid attention to the “saving the environment” cried these days. So, in order to convey this message in a meaningful and beautiful way, the locals of Mussoorie came up with this unique concept to remind travelers of the litter they leave behind.
The wall was built by over 50 volunteers that are basically school and college students who stepped forward to help bring this idea to life. For establishing this, plastic bottles of different shapes, sizes, and colors have been collected and fixed in this wall. Seeing their tireless efforts, the village locals also joined in later to help turn this project into a success story and then it spread like wildfire. They are actually admiring this new addition to the landscapes of Mussoorie, saying that the town looks even more beautiful now!
The wall was designed by Subodh Kerkar, founder of the private art gallery Museum of Goa. Talking to Hindustan Times, Kerkar said, “The wall will draw structural strength from steel pillars (柱子) being fixed two feet deep into the ground. The structure is completely rain and wind proof. I hope the wall will inspire a sense of beauty and will add color to the peaceful background of the hills.”

Darrell Blatchley, a marine biologist and environmentalist based in the Philippine city of Davao, received a call from the Philippines, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (渔业与水产资源局) early Friday morning reporting a death of a young whale.
When the necropsy (尸检) was performed, Blatchley told NPR, he was not prepared for the amount of plastic they found in the whale’s stomach. “It was full of plastic nothing but nonstop plastic.” he said “It was filled to the point that its stomach was as hard as a baseball.” That means that this animal has been suffering not for days or weeks but for months or even a year or more,” Blatchley added.
Blatchley is the founder and owner of the D’Bone Collector Museum, a natural history museum in Davao. In the coming days, the museum will display all the items found in the whale’s system. Blatchley and his team work with the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources and other organizations to assist in rescue and recovery of marine animals.
“Within the last 10 years, we have recovered 61 whales and dolphins just within the Davao Gulf,” he said. “Of them, 57 have died due to man whether they took plastic or fishing nets or other waste, or gotten caught in pollution — and four were pregnant.”
Blatchley said he hoped that the latest incident would launch the issue of plastic pollution in the Philippines and across the globe. “If we keep going this way, it will be more uncommon to see an animal die of natural causes than it is to see an animal die of plastic,” he said.

A new study suggests classic paintings by well-known Impressionists Joseph Turner and Claude Monet may have been influenced by air pollution during the Industrial Revolution.
Scientists don’t know exactly how polluted the cities were during that time for lack of data. However, researchers say that examining the works of Turner and Monet can give a picture of long-term environmental change with the air pollution.
The study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by authors from Harvard and Sorbonne universities, analyzed 60 oil paintings by Turner from 1796 to 1850 and 38 paintings by Monet from 1864 to 1901. Scientists successfully measured painters’ representation (再现) of nature, focusing on the colors as well as differences in local weather patterns which influenced coloring. They significantly found that paintings composed in Britain generally feature a greyer blue sky than works in other parts of Europe.
Researchers particularly believe changes in local sulfur dioxide (二氧化硫) emissions from burning coal may explain changes in the color contrast and intensity (亮度) of Turner’s and Monet’s works, even after taking into account the artistic trends and subject matter of the time.
Generally, artists can historically accurately represent their environment. Turner and Monet were chosen because they are famous for their landscape and cityscape paintings and also because they were active during the Industrial Revolution, when air pollution grew at a rate never seen before.
Additionally, researchers say that since the air in London was much polluted, the cities would appear grey and dull to the eyes as well as in photographs. By comparing the paintings of Turner and Monet to photos from the era, they were able to determine the painting works were definitely influenced by the change in emissions.
21. What did the researchers find in the works of Turner and Monet
A.Air pollution at that time. B.Change in subject matter.
C.Social trends of the period. D.Development of photography.
22. How did the researchers conduct the study
A.By referring to relevant historical records.
B.By examining the coloring of the paintings.
C.By comparing the paintings of Turner with Monet’s.
D.By analyzing the data during the Industrial Revolution.
23. What can we learn from the passage
A.European artists preferred landscape paintings.
B.Turner and Monet intended to present pollution.
C.The research focused on studying weather patterns.
D.Britain suffered most from air pollution in Europe.
24. What is the purpose of the text
A.To call on people to protect the environment.
B.To introduce air pollution in the Industrial Revolution.
C.To inform people of a new discovery in certain artworks.
D.To instruct people to admire classic paintings in new ways.
Almost a quarter of the UK’s sea swimmers may not swim in the ocean this year because of sewage (污水) dumping by water companies, according to a poll (民意调查). Sewage was dumped into waters near England’s most celebrated beaches for nearly 8,500 hours last year. And there were 1,504 discharges (排出) in 2022 on beaches supposed to be free from such pollution.
The poll spoke to 2,272 UK adults between 21 and 23 on July. Just over 30% said they typically went sea swimming during the summer, and of these 23% said they would not this year because of sewage dumping by water companies. More than two in five of the regular beachgoers also said they were less likely to visit the British seaside this summer because of sewage discharges.
The Department for Environment says government should allow the Environment Agency to charge unlimited fines on rule-breaking water companies. Fines are currently capped (上限) at 250,000. The Department for Environment has been calling for a sewage tax on annual profits and a ban on bonuses of water company managers. “Coastal communities are at the mercy of water companies who unapologetically discharge raw sewage into popular swimming spots,” Tim Farron, the Department for Environment’s spokesperson said. “The government needs to stop letting water companies off the hook and finally ban these terrible sewage discharges and defend our tourism sector.”
A Water UK spokesperson said standards at beaches had greatly improved since the 1990s but that the industry recognized it had been slow to deal with the harm to our seas caused by sewage overflows. “Over the next seven years, water and sewerage companies plan to spend 10bn — doubling current levels of investment — on sewage treatment,” they said. “As part of this, bathing waters will be among the first to receive funding.”
25.What does the poll show
A.Water companies dumped the most sewage into waters last year.
B.Many swimmers avoid the water over fears of sewage on UK beaches.
C.Waters near England’s most celebrated beaches are not seriously polluted.
D.Over two fifths of the regular beachgoers in UK are between 21 and 23.
26.What suggestion does the Department for Environment make to the government
A.Reducing bonuses of water company managers.
B.Shutting down those rule-breaking water companies.
C.Fining rule-breaking water companies at least 250,000.
D.Introducing a sewage tax on water companies’ yearly profits.
27.What does the underlined part “off the hook” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Develop slowly. B.Improve too fast.
C.Free of responsibility. D.Attract public attention.
28.In which section of the website can you probably read the text
A.Environment. B.Lifestyle. C.Fitness. D.Business.

【详解】
21. 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“However, researchers say that examining the works of Turner and Monet can give a picture of long-term environmental change with the air pollution. (然而,研究人员表示,研究特纳和莫奈的作品可以描绘出空气污染带来的长期环境变化。)”和第三段中“Scientists successfully measured painters’ representation (再现) of nature, focusing on the colors as well as differences in local weather patterns which influenced coloring. They significantly found that paintings composed in Britain generally feature a greyer blue sky than works in other parts of Europe. (科学家们成功地测量了画家对自然的表现,重点关注了色彩以及影响色彩的当地天气模式的差异。他们显著地发现,在英国创作的画作通常比在欧洲其他地区创作的画作呈现出更灰色的蓝天。)”可知,研究人员通过分析两位画家作品中的颜色使用以及与欧洲其他地区作品的比较,发现英国的作品通常描绘的天空更灰暗,这暗示了空气污染对画作的影响,研究人员在特纳和莫奈的作品中发现了当时的空气污染。故选A。
22. 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Scientists successfully measured painters’ representation (再现) of nature, focusing on the colors as well as differences in local weather patterns which influenced coloring. They significantly found that paintings composed in Britain generally feature a greyer blue sky than works in other parts of Europe. (科学家们成功地测量了画家对自然的表现,重点关注了色彩以及影响色彩的当地天气模式的差异。他们显著地发现,在英国创作的画作通常比在欧洲其他地区创作的画作呈现出更灰色的蓝天。)”可知,科学家成功测量了画家对自然的再现,特别是关注颜色以及影响着色的当地天气模式的差异。这表明他们主要通过分析画作的色彩来开展研究。故选B。
23. 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Scientists successfully measured painters’ representation (再现) of nature, focusing on the colors as well as differences in local weather patterns which influenced coloring. They significantly found that paintings composed in Britain generally feature a greyer blue sky than works in other parts of Europe. (科学家们成功地测量了画家对自然的表现,重点关注了色彩以及影响色彩的当地天气模式的差异。他们显著地发现,在英国创作的画作通常比在欧洲其他地区创作的画作呈现出更灰色的蓝天。)”和最后一段“Additionally, researchers say that since the air in London was much polluted, the cities would appear grey and dull to the eyes as well as in photographs. By comparing the paintings of Turner and Monet to photos from the era, they were able to determine the painting works were definitely influenced by the change in emissions. (此外,研究人员表示,由于伦敦的空气污染严重,城市在眼睛和照片中都会显得灰暗和沉闷。通过将特纳和莫奈的画作与那个时代的照片进行比较,他们能够确定这些绘画作品肯定受到了排放变化的影响。)”可知,与欧洲其他地区的画作相比,英国画作中的天空显得更灰暗,且由于伦敦空气质量极差,城市在人眼及照片中都会显得灰暗无光,说明英国在当时遭受的空气污染最为严重。故选D。
24. 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段“A new study suggests classic paintings by well-known Impressionists Joseph Turner and Claude Monet may have been influenced by air pollution during the Industrial Revolution. (一项新的研究表明,著名印象派画家约瑟夫·特纳和克劳德·莫奈的经典画作可能受到了工业革命期间空气污染的影响。)”可知,文章主要介绍了一项新的研究,这项研究发现工业革命时期,空气污染可能影响了著名印象派画家特纳和莫奈的作品,他们画中的英国天空更显灰蓝,揭示了长期环境变化及污染状况。选项C“To inform people of a new discovery in certain artworks.

【详解】
25.细节理解题。根据首段中的“Almost a quarter of the UK’s sea swimmers may not swim in the ocean this year because of sewage (污水) dumping by water companies, according to a poll (民意调查). (一项民意调查显示,由于自来水公司的污水排放,英国近四分之一的海泳者今年可能不会在海里游泳。)”以及第二段中的“Just over 30% said they typically went sea swimming during the summer, and of these 23% said they would not this year because of sewage dumping by water companies. (超过30%的人表示,他们通常在夏天去海里游泳,其中23%的人表示,由于自来水公司的污水排放,他们今年不会去游泳。)”可知,民意调查显示,由于担心英国海滩上的未经处理的污水,许多游泳者不愿下水游泳,由此可知,许多游泳者因为担心英国海滩上的污水而避免下水。故选B项。
26.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The Department for Environment has been calling for a sewage tax on annual profits and a ban on bonuses of water company managers. (英国环境部一直呼吁对年度利润征收污水税,并禁止发放水务公司经理的奖金。)”可知,环境部建议政府对水务公司的年度利润征收污水税。故选D项。
27.词义猜测题。根据划线短语前的“ ‘Coastal communities are at the mercy of water companies who unapologetically discharge raw sewage into popular swimming spots,’ Tim Farron, the Department for Environment’s spokesperson said. (英国环境部发言人蒂姆·法伦说:“沿海社区任由水务公司摆布,他们毫无歉意地将未经处理的污水排放到热门的游泳场所。”)”可知,水务公司毫无歉意地将未经处理的污水排放到热门的游泳场所,结合划线短语所在的句子“The government needs to stop letting water companies… (政府需要停止让水务公司……)”可知,政府应停止水务公司的这种“毫无歉意地”把污水排放到热门的游泳场所,由此可知,划线短语的意思与“毫无歉意的行为”的意义相近。“develop slowly”意为“缓慢发展”;“improve too fast”意为“发展太快”;“free of responsibility”意为“不负责任”;“attract public attention”意为“吸引公众注意”。可知,因为不想负责任,所以做这些事时毫无歉意。故选C项。
28.推理判断题。根据首段中的“Almost a quarter of the UK’s sea swimmers may not swim in the ocean this year because of sewage (污水) dumping by water companies, according to a poll (民意调查). Sewage was dumped into waters near England’s most celebrated beaches for nearly 8,500 hours last year. And there were 1,504 discharges (排出) in 2022 on beaches supposed to be free from such pollution. (一项民意调查显示,由于自来水公司的污水排放,英国近四分之一的海泳者今年可能不会在海里游泳。去年,污水被倾倒到英国最著名的海滩附近的水域近8500个小时。2022年,在本应没有此类污染的海滩上,有1,504次排放。)”可知,民意调查表明,由于税务局将未经处理的污水排放到海滩附近,致使游泳者远离英国的海滩,结合下文中的介绍的英国环境部向政府的提议可知,这类内容最可能出现在网站中关于“环境”的部分。A.Environment 环境;B.Lifestyle 生活方式;C.Fitness 健康;D.Business 商业。故选A项。

【解析】29.空前一句陈述了ChatGPT免费使用的优点,空后一句解释它的操作比较简单。由此推知,空处应陈述ChatGPT的另一个优点。因此A项“它的设计也更便于使用”符合语境,also表明与上文的并列关系,故选A。
30.空后两句描述了人们使用ChatGPT的各种情形,由此推知,有很多人使用ChatGPT。因此F项“在过去的一个月里,数百万人使用了这个工具”引起下文,符合语境,故选F。
31.空前一句提到纽约市教育部门正在限制ChatGPT的使用,空后一句说明了限制使用ChatGPT的另一个理由,下文的“has concerns regarding”与C项的“is worried about”呼应。因此C项“它担心对学生学习的负面影响”符合语境,故选C。
32.根据上文“Teachers are now trying to find out how to prevent students using the AI tool for cheating.”可知,在学校老师尽力阻止学生使用ChatGPT,但他们无法对学生在家的行为进行管控。因此B项“但是无法阻止学生在家里使用它”符合语境,与上文构成转折。故选B。
33.上文“but it doesn’t build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills”说明这款软件不足以培养学生的技能,因此E项“这些技能对于学业和终身成功至关重要”符合语境,These skills指代上文“critical-thinking and problem-solving skills”。故选E。
