Ⅰ.阅读理解
When Barcelona’s citizens emerged from a six-week lockdown at the end of April last year,they found that while the city had lain inactive,nature had been busy transforming the streets and parks into a wilderness. “The parks were shut,so no gardening was carried out,” says Margarita Pares,who heads the city’s biodiversity programme. “It was spring and it rained a lot more than usual. The result was an explosion in plant growth. And there were many more butterflies,as they are a species that reacts very quickly to changes in the environment. ”
Once the gardeners went back to work,the question was whether to return everything to its neat and tidy state,or let nature take its course?The answer is neither. Pares says the council spent the previous two years working on plans to “naturalise” or “rewild” the city—and was about to announce this change of policy when the pandemic struck. By the time the lockdown ended,it was a lot easier to sell rewilding to the public desiring fresh air and open space. When it comes to embracing nature in its cities,Spain falls behind many countries. But it is hoped that Barcelona’s new policy will go some way to correcting that.
“In a city like Barcelona,it’s a case of replacing what exists with green infrastructure(基础建设),” says Lorena Escuer who has worked in Barcelona on a pilot scheme called Alcorques Vivos,which plants wildflowers at the base of trees in the streets rather than surrounding them with pavement. “It’s not having a park surrounded by asphalt(沥青)but introducing nature into the city,” she says. “People need re-educating. Their idea of a clean space is where there’s no life and the ecosystem is dead. There’s this idea that nature is something outside and that what’s natural for the city is for there to be nothing. ”
“Rewilding has made us look at how we live and how we want to live. There’s no going back from here. The lockdown gave us a glimpse of nature in the city and it surprised us,” says Margarita Pares.
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。春天的“封城”让巴塞罗那的街道和公园变成了一片充满野趣的田园,并激发了人们对城市与大自然关系的重新构想。
1.What happened to Barcelona after a six-week lockdown last year?__A__
A.The environment became wild. B.Plants stopped growing.
C.Gardening was abolished. D.Fewer butterflies emerged.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“they found that while the city had lain inactive,nature had been busy transforming the streets and parks into a wilderness. ”(他们发现,虽然这座城市一直处于闲置状态,但大自然一直在忙于将街道和公园改造成一片荒野。)可知,在去年6周的封锁期间巴塞罗那的环境变成了荒野。故选A。
2.What does the underlined phrase “new policy” in paragraph 2 refer to?__C__
A.Returning Barcelona to neatness and tidiness.
B.Filling open space with fitness facilities.
C.“Naturalising” or “rewilding” Barcelona.
D.Developing economy to shake off backwardness.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“Pares says the council spent the previous two years working on plans to ’naturalise’ or ’rewild’ the city—and was about to announce this change of policy when the pandemic struck. ”(帕里斯说,该委员会在过去的两年里一直在制定计划,将这座城市“自然化”或“再野化”——委员会正准备宣布这一政策变化时,疫情爆发了。)可知,过去两年巴塞罗那一直在研究让城市“自然化”或“再野化”的政策,因为疫情搁置。由此可知划线词指的新政策就是上文提到的“naturalise” or “rewild” the city。故选C。
3.Which of the following will Lorena Escuer probably support?__B__
A.Surrounding trees with pavement.
B.Promoting green infrastructure.
C.Building park roads with asphalt.
D.Keeping the city empty and clean.
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“’In a city like Barcelona,it’s a case of replacing what exists with green infrastructure(基础建设),’ says Lorena Escuer”(“在巴塞罗那这样的城市,这是一个用绿色基础设施取代现有基础设施的案例”,Lorena Escuer说)可知,Lorena Escuer 支持用绿色基础设施替换现有的基础设施。故选B。
4.What is Margarita Pares’s attitude to “rewilding”?__D__
A.Doubtful. B.Intolerant.
C.Unclear. D.Favorable.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段Margarita Pares 说的话“There’s no going back from here. The lockdown gave us a glimpse of nature in the city and it surprised us”(从这里没有回头路。封锁让我们得以一窥这座城市的自然风光,这让我们感到惊讶)推知,Margarita Pares对再野化的态度是支持的。故选D。
Ⅱ.七选五
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
People of all ages and nationalities are opening Twitter,Facebook,and LinkedIn accounts to connect with friends,celebrities,and those who share similar interests as them. __1. B__ Small businesses and corporations are also using it to develop closer relationships with their fans and attract new customers.
__2. E__ For starters,it can be an effective way to conduct market research. In the past,companies often spent millions on studies to determine what their customers wanted. However,they often had difficulties locating people who were interested in their products or services. Nowadays social media has simplified this process as many customers will follow or like the companies they purchase products from. Furthermore,online advertising campaigns through social media allow companies to specifically target people who like similar products as the ones they are selling.
__3. F__ It allows fans and customers to leave comments about companies,their products,or their services. In turn,these companies can evaluate this feedback and respond in a way that shows they truly care.
However,companies shouldn’t jump into social media without a carefully-planned strategy,as this can cause more harm than good. A common mistake is putting new hires or outside consultants in charge of social media accounts. __4. D__ Another mistake is using conservative,corporate language in posts and updates. On social media,people are looking for personalities they can connect with,so companies shouldn’t shy away from using humor or being colorful. Finally,social media accounts should always provide value and other share-worthy content to fans,for that is the primary reason they became followers. __5. G__
A.Social media has swept across the globe.
B.Social media isn’t just for individuals,though.
C.One company called Zippos does this extremely well.
D.The person controlling these accounts must be knowledgeable.
E.There are many ways that organizations can benefit from social media.
F.Social media also gives companies greater control over their brand image.
G.Only by following these tips,organizations can take their businesses to the next level.
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述小企业和公司如何通过Twitter,Facebook和LinkedIn这些社交媒体与粉丝建立更密切的关系,吸引新客户。
解析:
1.根据后文“Small businesses and corporations are also using it to develop closer relationships with their fans and attract new customers. ”(小企业和公司也在利用它与粉丝建立更密切的关系,吸引新客户。)可知,这些社交媒体不仅仅是对个人开放,而且也为小企业和公司服务。B项“然而,社交媒体并不仅仅针对个人。”符合句意。故选B。
2.此处是段落首句。根据下文“For starters,it can be an effective way to conduct market research. ”(首先,这可能是进行市场研究的有效方式。)以及“Furthermore,online advertising campaigns through social media allow companies to specifically target people who like similar products as the ones they are selling. ”(此外,通过社交媒体开展的在线广告活动允许公司专门针对那些喜欢与他们销售的产品类似的产品的人。)可知,本段介绍了公司利用社交媒体所获得的好处。E项“公司可以通过多种方式从社交媒体中受益。”适合做段首句。故选E。
3.根据空后“It allows fans and customers to leave comments about companies,their products,or their services. ”(它允许粉丝和客户对公司、产品或服务发表评论。)可知,它会让顾客对公司,产品或服务进行评价,因而前文中需告诉读者代词it指的是社交媒体以及社交媒体对企业的影响。F项“社交媒体也让企业对其品牌形象有了更大的控制。”符合语境。故选F。
4.根据上文“A common mistake is putting new hires or outside consultants in charge of social media accounts. ”(一个常见的错误是让新员工或外部顾问负责社交媒体账户。)可知,让新员工或外部顾问负责社交媒体账户是错误的,所以要说明他们不能很好的处理问题。D项“控制这些账户的人必须知识渊博。”符合语境,说明学识渊博的人正好弥补了新员工所带来的不足,符合语境。故选D。
5.根据段首句“However,companies shouldn’t jump into social media without a carefully-planned strategy,as this can cause more harm than good. ”(然而,如果没有精心策划的策略,公司不应该跳进社交媒体,因为这可能弊大于利。)可知,这段主要围绕怎样精心策划一些策略,才能让公司在社交媒体上受益。空处为段落总结句,G项中的“these tips”和前面的“a carefully-planned strategy”相呼应,而且总结了只有遵循这些技巧,组织才能将其业务提升到一个新的水平。故选G。
