When Seymour Kankel,10,was getting in the car to go to the summer camp in 2020,he wasn’t exactly keeping an eye out for bears.But there it was,about 30 meters away,going calmly out of a dumpster(垃圾箱).Different from Seymour,the bear wasn’t at all shocked to see him.Seymour immediately ran away.
Encounters like the one Seymour had aren’t that shocking.People and black bears are running into each other more and more.That’s partly because people are spending more time in wild areas—hiking and camping.They’re also living in areas near forests and mountains,areas where bears like to hang out.And the number of black bears has been growing since they were protected.
Black bears don’t usually bother anyone.But if a bear feels threatened,it might do something like a bluff charge.That’s when a bear runs towards a person but doesn’t attack.Even if no one is hurt,it can be frightening.And authorities may kill the animal in response.
People might be afraid of bears,but that fear goes both ways.Black bears living near people live in fear too,especially when they want to eat human leftovers(剩饭).They’re weighing the high-calorie food against the risk of encountering people.
One way to reduce contact with bears is to remove the fast-food option.The hardest part is convincing people to do that.They need to keep bird feeders out of reach.They mustn’t leave pet food behind.Most importantly,they need to lock up the trash.Bears are changing their own behavior to coexist with people and their activities.And people will need to do the same—even if it means just locking up their trash.
8.How did Seymour Kankel react when seeing the bear
A.He was too scared to move.
B.He fled the spot instantly.
C.He remained calm as usual.
D.He became curious about the sight.
9.What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2
A.Encounters between humans and black bears occur frequently.
B.Black bears and humans now live in harmony.
C.The number of black bears has been increasing.
D.Humans are taking up black bears’ habitat.
10.Why does a black bear perform such an act as a bluff charge
A.To get the leftovers.
B.To attack the man.
C.To drive away the man.
D.To expand its own territory.
11.How can people avoid encountering black bears according to the author
A.By avoiding going to the wild.
B.By checking their trash carefully.
C.By putting away the black bears’ food.
D.By moving away from where bears live.
D
Five years ago,French navy officer Jér me Chardon was listening to a radio program about the journey of the bar-tailed godwit(斑尾塍鹬),which flies about 14,000 kilometers,moving from New Zealand to Alaska.Chardon knew how hard the journey would be,as heavy storms hit Pacificisland communities frequently.Yet,bar-tailed godwits pass through the area uninjured.Chardon wondered whether learning how godwits navigate could help us avoid disasters.
This January,a team from France’s National Museum of Natural History(NMNH) began to test Chardon’s idea.Researchers led by Frédéric Jiguet equipped 56 birds of five species with cutting-edge animal tracking technology.They attached tags(标签) to the birds in French Polynesia.These tags send the birds’ locations to the International Space Station,which sends the data back to scientists on Earth who can then follow the birds as they hunt for food,move and rest—all the while waiting to see how the birds respond to natural disasters.
The project is focusing on birds’ ability to hear the low-frequency sound that humans can’t hear,and researchers believe it might be the most likely signal birds would use to sense disasters.In a 2014 study,scientists tracking golden-winged warblers in America found that the birds flew up to 1,500 kilometers to escape from an outbreak of tsunami that killed 35 people and cost more than one billion dollars.This showed they’d heard the storm system in advance.“Tracking that behavior of birds may help us develop an early warning system,” Jiguet says.
Bernard,a famous tsunami scientist,said,“Don’t overstress the tsunami warning aspect of this project,because most tsunamis are harmlessly small,and false alarms cause economic damage.” “Even if the attempt to develop a bird-based tsunami early warning system fails,the project will still help scientists protect birds.In that sense,the research has already yielded results,”Jiguet said.“The first season’s tracking data has become a useful clue for bird experts to protect these species among rising seas and the changing climate.”
12.What is the researchers’ purpose in tracking birds of different species
A.To learn more about their lifestyles.
B.To know their reactions to disasters.
C.To test an animal tracking technology.
D.To help them adapt to the local environment.
13.Why is the 2014 study mentioned in paragraph 3
A.To prove birds can sense disasters in advance.
B.To prove tsunamis are common in America.
C.To show humans can’t hear low-frequency sounds.
D.To show natural disasters cause severe damage to people.
14.What would Jiguet think of their research
A.Successful. B.Challenging.
C.Rewarding. D.Meaningless.
15.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.How are natural disasters posing a threat to society
B.Is it necessary to develop an early-warning system
C.Why do we need to prepare for natural disasters
D.Can birds give a clue to natural disasters

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Any car accident is frightening,but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water,with you trapped inside,is absolutely terrifying. 16 However,most deaths result from panic,without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撑) position,acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞击力).As soon as you’re aware that you’re going off the road and into a body of water,adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle,so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.
Undo your seat belt. 17 Unfasten the children,starting with the oldest first.Forget the cell phone call.Your car isn’t going to wait for you to make the call.
18 Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car’s electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water,so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don’t think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window.If you aren’t able to open the window,or it only opens halfway,you’ll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counterintuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 19
Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 20 While there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you’re doing.
A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous due to the risk of drowning.
E.In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you will be safe.
F.This is the first thing to attend to,yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G.But the sooner the window is open,the sooner you can escape directly through it.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a pleasant Sunday as John had a walk in his uncle’s garden.His parents had moved to London.
“Your final examination is just a few weeks away,” John’s father had said.“We want you to stay with Uncle Tim and Aunt Melanie,complete your exams,and then join us in London.” Uncle Tim was John’s father’s cousin.He had a dog called Oliver.
From the first day,John realized that Oliver was unhappy in the house.
He was not given his meals on time.Nor was he taken for a walk.“Your uncle bought Oliver so that the dog could guard his house.Actually neither he nor his wife loves him,” the gardener told John one day.John felt sad.At night he could hear Oliver crying in the cold.“Why don’t you make a coat for your pet ” John said.“He feels cold.” His aunt said impatiently,“I have more important things to do.”
One day John went out for a walk with Oliver when the sky suddenly got dark.Heavy rain poured down.John ran to take shelter in a sweet shop.It was only after a few minutes that he realized that Oliver was not with him.
“The storm separated us,” John said returning home.“I searched the entire place with the help of the sweet shopowner after the rain stopped,but I couldn’t find him.” Uncle Tim placed an advertisement in the local newspaper.After all,he had paid a lot of money for the dog and did not want to lose him.
A few days later,a middle-aged lady and her husband answered the advertisement.John’s uncle was away on a business trip,so John was sent to check on the dog.
“He is asleep,” the lady said.“Come and have a look.Ever since our dog died,we decided not to keep any pets and then suddenly...” Her voice was trembling(颤抖).“When seeing the advertisement,for a moment we thought of not replying,”the gentleman said.“My wife has become attached to the dog in just a few days.”
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Yes,he was Oliver,his uncle’s dog.
John smiled as he shook his head.

8.B 细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句可知,Seymour Kankel见到熊后立刻跑开了。故选B项。
9.A 段落大意题。作者在第二段主要介绍人与黑熊相遇的事件并不少见。故选A项。
10.C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But if a bear feels threatened,it might do something like a bluff charge.That’s when a bear runs towards a person but doesn’t attack.”可知,黑熊的这种行为只是想把人吓跑。
11.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“They need to keep bird feeders out of reach.They mustn’t leave pet food behind.Most importantly,they need to lock up the trash.”可知,为了避免跟黑熊相遇,人应该把黑熊吃的食物收起来。
【语篇解读】鸟类能够帮助人类预警自然灾害吗 法国专家Frédéric Jiguet带领的研究团队正在展开研究。
12.B 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“Chardon wondered whether learning how godwits navigate could help us avoid disasters.”以及第二段中的“...began to test Chardon’s idea” 和“...all the while waiting to see how the birds respond to natural disasters”可推断出,研究人员追踪鸟类的目的是要观察鸟类是如何应对自然灾害的。
13.A 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“...the birds flew up to 1,500 kilometers to escape from an outbreak of tsunami that killed 35 people and cost more than one billion dollars.This showed they’d heard the storm system in advance.”可知,作者提到2014年的研究是为了证明鸟类确实可以提前感知自然灾害。
14.C 观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“‘Even if the attempt to develop a bird-based tsunami early warning system fails,the project will still help scientists protect birds.In that sense,the research has already yielded results,’Jiguet said.”可推断出,Jiguet认为他们的研究是值得的、有意义的。
15.D 主旨大意题。阅读文章内容可知,本文主要介绍了法国国家自然历史博物馆的一个团队正在使用追踪器观察鸟类,目的是发现它们能够提前感知自然灾害的原因并运用到人类生活中,因此D项(鸟类是否能给人类提供灾害预警 )符合题意,故选D项。
【语篇解读】本文为说明文。主要介绍了当遇到汽车掉入水中时,人们应该如何应对。
16.D 根据空前的“an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water”与D项中的“Such accidents”对应,可知这样的事故中的乘客会有被淹死的危险。而空格处句子与空格后一句为转折关系。故选D项。
17.F 根据空前“Undo your seat belt.”与F项中的“This is the first thing to attend to”对应,可知当汽车掉进水里的时候,首先我们要解开安全带,但是在惊慌的时候,人们经常会忘记这一点。故选F项。
18.A 根据本段中的“concentrate on the window”和“Many people don’t think about the window as an escape option either because of panic...”可知建议我们要注意窗户,因为我们可以把窗户当成逃生的地方。A项Open the window as soon as you hit the water.符合本段内容,window是关键词。故选A项。
19.G 首先空格前句与空格处为转折关系,本段仍旧围绕“window”进行阐述,G项“但窗户越早打开,你就能越早从里面逃走。”所表达的意思为打开窗户逃生,与本段主旨“Break the window.”一致。故选G项。
20.C 空格前的“car cabin has been filled with water”与C项中的“fill up with water”对应,而C项所表达的意思“通常一辆车装满水需要60到120秒。”也与空格后的“While there is still air in the car”相关联。故选C项。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了环境问题是我们在21世纪必须战胜的主要挑战之一,世界上所有的国家都应该联合起来,为改善环境而努力。
21.C 根据语境和生活常识可知,越来越差的环境对我们的生存造成了威胁(threat)。
22.A 此处表示为了解决这一问题,各国之间应该精诚合作,而不是(instead of)为了自己的利益而独自行动。
23.A 人们支持国际合作的原因是环境问题通常会在全球范围内造成影响(effect)。
24.C 我们人类生活在同一个生物圈内,这是常识。
25.B 根据常识可知,有时一条河流流经不止一个国家,如果一个国家倾倒污水,势必会影响邻(neighboring)国的河流。
26.A 此处表示一些国家没有足够的(adequate)资源来解决污染问题。
27.A 上句话提到有些国家没有足够的资源解决环境问题,紧接着本句话是对这些国家提出建议。根据常识可知,这些国家应与发达国家合作(cooperate)以获得技术和经验。
28.B 尽管(despite)国家之间的合作很重要,但本国内部还要采取措施做一些改变。根据语境可知此处表示让步。
29.A 恰当地说,各国都面临着不同的环境问题。此处“be faced with”表示“面临……”。
30.A 根据生活常识和语境可知,中国的温室气体主要(mainly)来自发电行业。
31.B 中国的温室气体主要来源于发电行业,而美国的温室气体则主要是由汽车使用的增加产生的。本句话前后两部分之间表示对比关系,故B项正确。
32.D 此处表示美国的温室气体主要是由汽车使用(use)的增加产生的。由常识可知汽车尾气的排放是导致温室效应的直接原因,而不是汽车的销售、市场或生产。
33.C 适用于大多数国家的措施可能在某些国家不会有效。
34.B raise one’s awareness意为“提高某人的意识”。
35.D 本文属于议论文,最后一段是总结归纳,指出各国应共同努力以解决全球环境问题。in conclusion意为“总之,最后”,符合语境。

41.how 考查疑问副词。此处表示方式,故应用“how+动词不定式”结构。
42.various 考查形容词。空白处所填词修饰challenges,故填various。
43.obtained 考查非谓语动词。obtain与其逻辑主语information为动宾关系,故填obtained。
44.who 分析句子结构可知,此处是who引导的非限制性定语从句,who在从句中作主语,修饰先行词Kids。
45.is 考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据空前的All of this可知,应用单数形式;此处描述的是一般情况,故用一般现在时,所以此处应填is。

第一节
Dear human beings,
It is known that at present more and more wildlife is being in danger of dying out.According to my research,there are many reasons which lead to it.Some people like wearing clothes made from animals’ fur and others hunt animals to make money,and even some endangered species become our dishes.
In order to prevent animals from extinction,we should first say no to the fur which is made into our clothes.In the second place,anyone who hunts animals for money should be punished.Finally,it’s necessary that the government set up more preserves to protect endangered species.
Last,I’d like to call on all of us to pay more attention to animals’ living conditions and work together to make sure they will not die out.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Yes,he was Oliver,his uncle’s dog.Wearing a cute coat,he was sleeping soundly.The bed on which Oliver was sleeping was covered with a warm blanket.A pot of milk stood in a corner of the room possibly for Oliver.The couple looked at Oliver,explaining how they found him.Oliver was so cute and they considered him a part of the family.Thinking about the life Oliver had lived with his uncle’s family,John made a decision.
John smiled as he shook his head.He told them that he was not his uncle’s Oliver.There was a cry of relief from the couple.They could keep him for their own.John would have to lie to his uncle but in return,Oliver would get a life of love and care,and never be left alone in the cold.John knew he had made the right decision.At the bus stop,he pulled out the letter sent in answer to his uncle’s advertisement and threw it into the dustbin before getting on the bus.

Around the World by Wheelchair
Rick Hansen was always an active kid and loved to fish.When returning in a truck one day from a fishing trip,he had an accident and suffered injuries to his spine (脊柱).This 15-year-old young man awoke to find that he had lost the use of his legs.However,he didn’t give up.Many months later he began to compete in wheelchair sports.At the age of 27,he decided to wheel around the world to raise awareness and money for spinal cord research.His tour took him through 34 countries around the world between 1985 and 1987.In this Man of Motion World Tour,he wheeled 24,901.55 miles,which is equal to the distance around the earth.
Bad weather and difficult,rocky roads often provided challenges for Rick,but he continued to push himself to complete the trip.He was determined to succeed.Even mountains did not stop Rick Hansen.He wheeled himself up the Rocky Mountains and several other major mountains in the world.He even wheeled himself along the Great Wall of China!

When Seymour Kankel,10,was getting in the car to go to the summer camp in 2020,he wasn’t exactly keeping an eye out for bears.But there it was,about 30 meters away,going calmly out of a dumpster(垃圾箱).Different from Seymour,the bear wasn’t at all shocked to see him.Seymour immediately ran away.
Encounters like the one Seymour had aren’t that shocking.People and black bears are running into each other more and more.That’s partly because people are spending more time in wild areas—hiking and camping.They’re also living in areas near forests and mountains,areas where bears like to hang out.And the number of black bears has been growing since they were protected.
Black bears don’t usually bother anyone.But if a bear feels threatened,it might do something like a bluff charge.That’s when a bear runs towards a person but doesn’t attack.Even if no one is hurt,it can be frightening.And authorities may kill the animal in response.
People might be afraid of bears,but that fear goes both ways.Black bears living near people live in fear too,especially when they want to eat human leftovers(剩饭).They’re weighing the high-calorie food against the risk of encountering people.
One way to reduce contact with bears is to remove the fast-food option.The hardest part is convincing people to do that.They need to keep bird feeders out of reach.They mustn’t leave pet food behind.Most importantly,they need to lock up the trash.Bears are changing their own behavior to coexist with people and their activities.And people will need to do the same—even if it means just locking up their trash.
8.How did Seymour Kankel react when seeing the bear
A.He was too scared to move.
B.He fled the spot instantly.
C.He remained calm as usual.
D.He became curious about the sight.
9.What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2
A.Encounters between humans and black bears occur frequently.
B.Black bears and humans now live in harmony.
C.The number of black bears has been increasing.
D.Humans are taking up black bears’ habitat.
10.Why does a black bear perform such an act as a bluff charge
A.To get the leftovers.
B.To attack the man.
C.To drive away the man.
D.To expand its own territory.
11.How can people avoid encountering black bears according to the author
A.By avoiding going to the wild.
B.By checking their trash carefully.
C.By putting away the black bears’ food.
D.By moving away from where bears live.
D
Five years ago,French navy officer Jér me Chardon was listening to a radio program about the journey of the bar-tailed godwit(斑尾塍鹬),which flies about 14,000 kilometers,moving from New Zealand to Alaska.Chardon knew how hard the journey would be,as heavy storms hit Pacificisland communities frequently.Yet,bar-tailed godwits pass through the area uninjured.Chardon wondered whether learning how godwits navigate could help us avoid disasters.
This January,a team from France’s National Museum of Natural History(NMNH) began to test Chardon’s idea.Researchers led by Frédéric Jiguet equipped 56 birds of five species with cutting-edge animal tracking technology.They attached tags(标签) to the birds in French Polynesia.These tags send the birds’ locations to the International Space Station,which sends the data back to scientists on Earth who can then follow the birds as they hunt for food,move and rest—all the while waiting to see how the birds respond to natural disasters.
The project is focusing on birds’ ability to hear the low-frequency sound that humans can’t hear,and researchers believe it might be the most likely signal birds would use to sense disasters.In a 2014 study,scientists tracking golden-winged warblers in America found that the birds flew up to 1,500 kilometers to escape from an outbreak of tsunami that killed 35 people and cost more than one billion dollars.This showed they’d heard the storm system in advance.“Tracking that behavior of birds may help us develop an early warning system,” Jiguet says.
Bernard,a famous tsunami scientist,said,“Don’t overstress the tsunami warning aspect of this project,because most tsunamis are harmlessly small,and false alarms cause economic damage.” “Even if the attempt to develop a bird-based tsunami early warning system fails,the project will still help scientists protect birds.In that sense,the research has already yielded results,”Jiguet said.“The first season’s tracking data has become a useful clue for bird experts to protect these species among rising seas and the changing climate.”
12.What is the researchers’ purpose in tracking birds of different species
A.To learn more about their lifestyles.
B.To know their reactions to disasters.
C.To test an animal tracking technology.
D.To help them adapt to the local environment.
13.Why is the 2014 study mentioned in paragraph 3
A.To prove birds can sense disasters in advance.
B.To prove tsunamis are common in America.
C.To show humans can’t hear low-frequency sounds.
D.To show natural disasters cause severe damage to people.
14.What would Jiguet think of their research
A.Successful. B.Challenging.
C.Rewarding. D.Meaningless.
15.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.How are natural disasters posing a threat to society
B.Is it necessary to develop an early-warning system
C.Why do we need to prepare for natural disasters
D.Can birds give a clue to natural disasters

Any car accident is frightening,but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water,with you trapped inside,is absolutely terrifying. 16 However,most deaths result from panic,without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撑) position,acting decisively and getting out fast,you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞击力).As soon as you’re aware that you’re going off the road and into a body of water,adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle,so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.
Undo your seat belt. 17 Unfasten the children,starting with the oldest first.Forget the cell phone call.Your car isn’t going to wait for you to make the call.
18 Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car’s electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water,so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don’t think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window.If you aren’t able to open the window,or it only opens halfway,you’ll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counterintuitive (有悖常理的) to let water into the car. 19
Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced,you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival. 20 While there is still air in the car,take slow,deep breaths and focus on what you’re doing.
A.Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B.Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C.It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D.Such accidents are particularly dangerous due to the risk of drowning.
E.In conclusion,if you know what to do in the water,you will be safe.
F.This is the first thing to attend to,yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G.But the sooner the window is open,the sooner you can escape directly through it.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a pleasant Sunday as John had a walk in his uncle’s garden.His parents had moved to London.
“Your final examination is just a few weeks away,” John’s father had said.“We want you to stay with Uncle Tim and Aunt Melanie,complete your exams,and then join us in London.” Uncle Tim was John’s father’s cousin.He had a dog called Oliver.
From the first day,John realized that Oliver was unhappy in the house.
He was not given his meals on time.Nor was he taken for a walk.“Your uncle bought Oliver so that the dog could guard his house.Actually neither he nor his wife loves him,” the gardener told John one day.John felt sad.At night he could hear Oliver crying in the cold.“Why don’t you make a coat for your pet ” John said.“He feels cold.” His aunt said impatiently,“I have more important things to do.”
One day John went out for a walk with Oliver when the sky suddenly got dark.Heavy rain poured down.John ran to take shelter in a sweet shop.It was only after a few minutes that he realized that Oliver was not with him.
“The storm separated us,” John said returning home.“I searched the entire place with the help of the sweet shopowner after the rain stopped,but I couldn’t find him.” Uncle Tim placed an advertisement in the local newspaper.After all,he had paid a lot of money for the dog and did not want to lose him.
A few days later,a middle-aged lady and her husband answered the advertisement.John’s uncle was away on a business trip,so John was sent to check on the dog.
“He is asleep,” the lady said.“Come and have a look.Ever since our dog died,we decided not to keep any pets and then suddenly...” Her voice was trembling(颤抖).“When seeing the advertisement,for a moment we thought of not replying,”the gentleman said.“My wife has become attached to the dog in just a few days.”
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Yes,he was Oliver,his uncle’s dog.
John smiled as he shook his head.

15.D 主旨大意题。阅读文章内容可知,本文主要介绍了法国国家自然历史博物馆的一个团队正在使用追踪器观察鸟类,目的是发现它们能够提前感知自然灾害的原因并运用到人类生活中,因此D项(鸟类是否能给人类提供灾害预警 )符合题意,故选D项。

16.D 根据空前的“an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water”与D项中的“Such accidents”对应,可知这样的事故中的乘客会有被淹死的危险。而空格处句子与空格后一句为转折关系。故选D项。
17.F 根据空前“Undo your seat belt.”与F项中的“This is the first thing to attend to”对应,可知当汽车掉进水里的时候,首先我们要解开安全带,但是在惊慌的时候,人们经常会忘记这一点。故选F项。
18.A 根据本段中的“concentrate on the window”和“Many people don’t think about the window as an escape option either because of panic...”可知建议我们要注意窗户,因为我们可以把窗户当成逃生的地方。A项Open the window as soon as you hit the water.符合本段内容,window是关键词。故选A项。
19.G 首先空格前句与空格处为转折关系,本段仍旧围绕“window”进行阐述,G项“但窗户越早打开,你就能越早从里面逃走。”所表达的意思为打开窗户逃生,与本段主旨“Break the window.”一致。故选G项。
20.C 空格前的“car cabin has been filled with water”与C项中的“fill up with water”对应,而C项所表达的意思“通常一辆车装满水需要60到120秒。”也与空格后的“While there is still air in the car”相关联。故选C项。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。主要讲述了环境问题是我们在21世纪必须战胜的主要挑战之一,世界上所有的国家都应该联合起来,为改善环境而努力。
21.C 根据语境和生活常识可知,越来越差的环境对我们的生存造成了威胁(threat)。
22.A 此处表示为了解决这一问题,各国之间应该精诚合作,而不是(instead of)为了自己的利益而独自行动。
23.A 人们支持国际合作的原因是环境问题通常会在全球范围内造成影响(effect)。
24.C 我们人类生活在同一个生物圈内,这是常识。
25.B 根据常识可知,有时一条河流流经不止一个国家,如果一个国家倾倒污水,势必会影响邻(neighboring)国的河流。
26.A 此处表示一些国家没有足够的(adequate)资源来解决污染问题。
27.A 上句话提到有些国家没有足够的资源解决环境问题,紧接着本句话是对这些国家提出建议。根据常识可知,这些国家应与发达国家合作(cooperate)以获得技术和经验。
28.B 尽管(despite)国家之间的合作很重要,但本国内部还要采取措施做一些改变。根据语境可知此处表示让步。
29.A 恰当地说,各国都面临着不同的环境问题。此处“be faced with”表示“面临……”。
30.A 根据生活常识和语境可知,中国的温室气体主要(mainly)来自发电行业。
31.B 中国的温室气体主要来源于发电行业,而美国的温室气体则主要是由汽车使用的增加产生的。本句话前后两部分之间表示对比关系,故B项正确。
32.D 此处表示美国的温室气体主要是由汽车使用(use)的增加产生的。由常识可知汽车尾气的排放是导致温室效应的直接原因,而不是汽车的销售、市场或生产。
33.C 适用于大多数国家的措施可能在某些国家不会有效。
34.B raise one’s awareness意为“提高某人的意识”。
35.D 本文属于议论文,最后一段是总结归纳,指出各国应共同努力以解决全球环境问题。in conclusion意为“总之,最后”,符合语境。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。机器学习是人工智能的核心,是使计算机具有智能的根本途径。
36.application 考查名词。根据空前的an以及空后的of可知,应填apply的名词形式application。
37.to 考查介词。access to sth.意为“使用某物的机会或权力”。
38.basically 考查副词。空白处所填词修饰动词getting,故 填basically。
39.to accomplish 考查动词不定式。此处是不定式短语作目的状语。
40.has been given 考查动词的时态和语态。这里表示“被给予”机器人的信息,并且是机器人在做决定之前就已经获得的信息,故应用现在完成时的被动语态。
41.how 考查疑问副词。此处表示方式,故应用“how+动词不定式”结构。
42.various 考查形容词。空白处所填词修饰challenges,故填various。
43.obtained 考查非谓语动词。obtain与其逻辑主语information为动宾关系,故填obtained。
44.who 分析句子结构可知,此处是who引导的非限制性定语从句,who在从句中作主语,修饰先行词Kids。
45.is 考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据空前的All of this可知,应用单数形式;此处描述的是一般情况,故用一般现在时,所以此处应填is。

第一节
Dear human beings,
It is known that at present more and more wildlife is being in danger of dying out.According to my research,there are many reasons which lead to it.Some people like wearing clothes made from animals’ fur and others hunt animals to make money,and even some endangered species become our dishes.
In order to prevent animals from extinction,we should first say no to the fur which is made into our clothes.In the second place,anyone who hunts animals for money should be punished.Finally,it’s necessary that the government set up more preserves to protect endangered species.
Last,I’d like to call on all of us to pay more attention to animals’ living conditions and work together to make sure they will not die out.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Yes,he was Oliver,his uncle’s dog.Wearing a cute coat,he was sleeping soundly.The bed on which Oliver was sleeping was covered with a warm blanket.A pot of milk stood in a corner of the room possibly for Oliver.The couple looked at Oliver,explaining how they found him.Oliver was so cute and they considered him a part of the family.Thinking about the life Oliver had lived with his uncle’s family,John made a decision.
John smiled as he shook his head.He told them that he was not his uncle’s Oliver.There was a cry of relief from the couple.They could keep him for their own.John would have to lie to his uncle but in return,Oliver would get a life of love and care,and never be left alone in the cold.John knew he had made the right decision.At the bus stop,he pulled out the letter sent in answer to his uncle’s advertisement and threw it into the dustbin before getting on the bus.
