Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
Although our r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eliance on fossil fuels(化石燃料) has created global warming, we now have the opportunity to begin a_transformation towards a clean energy economy—one that is supported by highly efficient industries, fueled by clean, renewable resources, like wind, solar and geothermal (地热的) energy, and based on modern smart transportation planning.
A clean energy econo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )my is a win for American jobs. Studies by leading research institutions have shown that if we invest in clean energy over fossil fuels, we will create more American jobs. A report released by the United Steelworkers and the Sierra Club, for example, found that thanks to the growth of wind energy, about 5，200 manufacturing jobs could be created in Iowa alone over the next decade. Additional studies have found that thousands more jobs could be created in other states that have suffered industry job losses and that welcome the opportunity to train workers for the new energy economy.
But, in order to ful ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly transit to a clean energy economy，we need our elected officials to take action. Without policies from the government, the private field may continue to invest in old－fashioned, polluting technologies. More than 70 coal plants without technology to capture carbon pollution are now being considered. If these projects go ahead, this will be billions of dollars invested in technology that is outdated and not “clean coal”. We need effective policies to push growing clean energy industries forward.
Each of us can pla ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y a role in bringing about this much－needed transition. Tell your business and elected leaders that the next generation deserves to grow up in a world powered by clean energy. Tell your mayor that you want city planning that encourages more efficient new buildings and sidewalks and bike paths that make it easy to walk or ride a bike. Tell your state and national officials to invest in energy grids (电力网) that can deliver renewable energy to everyone. Tell your company that instead of old－style coal power you want to buy solar, wind, or geothermal energy. Tell your elected officials that you want national policies that encourage investors to make long－term commitments to clean energy.
1．The underlined part ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) “a transformation” in Paragraph 1 refers to “________”．
A．a change from fossil fuels to clean energy
B．a choice for fossil fuels
C．a chance of developing modern industries
D．a choice for global warming
2．According to Paragraph 2, a clean energy economy________．
A．has helped develop more wind energy
B．is quite beneficial to ordinary people
C．has developed fast in most states of the US
D．is valued by the governments around the world
3．Which of the follow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing is a major concern to the government according to the passage 21教育网
A．Investments in clean energy.
B．Coal plants without advanced technology.
C．Technology for capturing carbon pollution.
D．Policies on the good use of clean energy.
4．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．Everyone can contribute to the clean energy.
B．Citizens have the right to talk to the mayor.
C．Elected leaders should be responsible for the next generation.
D．More investments should be put into energy grids.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
5．If this passage is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) taken from a newspaper, in which part would you most probably find it
A．Culture. B．Society.
C．Economy. D．Nature.
B
Beijing had its ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) biggest snowfall since 1951.Britain is suffering through its longest cold snap(寒潮)since 1981.And freezing weather is hitting the Deep South，including Florida's orange groves and beaches.
Whatever happened to global warming
Such weather does ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n't seem to fit with warnings from scientists that the Earth is warming because of greenhouse gases.But experts say the cold snap doesn't contradict global warming at all—it's just a temporary phenomenon in the long－term heating trend.“It's part of natural variability，”said Gerald Meehl，a senior scientist.With global warming，he said，“we'll still have record cold temperatures.We'll just have fewer of them.”
Scientists say man－ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )made climate change does have the potential to cause more frequent and more severe weather extremes.But experts did not connect the current cold snap to climate change.
So what is going on
“We basically have see ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n just a big outbreak of Arctic air over populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere”，Arndt said.21cnjy.com
In the atmosphere ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，large rivers of air travel roughly west to east around the globe between the Arctic and the tropics.This air flow acts like a fence to keep Arctic air restricted.But recently，this air flow has become bent into a zigzag(之字形)pattern，wandering north and south.If you live in a place where it brings air up from the south，you get warm weather.In fact，record highs were reported this week in Washington state and Alaska.2·1·c·n·j·y
But in the east ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ern United States，like some other unlucky parts of the globe，Arctic air is coming from the north.And that's how you get a temperature of 3 degrees in Beijing，a reading of minus－42 in mainland Norway，and 18 inches of snow in parts of Britain.The zigzag pattern arises naturally from time to time，but it is not clear why it's so strong right now.
6．What is the BEST title of the text
A．Freezing weather is hitting the Deep South
B．We'll still have record cold temperatures
C．The air flow has become a zigzag pattern
D．Cold snap doesn't contradict global warming
7．With global warming，we will________．
A．also meet with severe cold snap
B．have more hot temperatures forever
C．never experience cold temperatures
D．have more cold temperatures
8．According to experts，the current cold snap ________．
A．suggests that the climate has changed greatly
B．is not related to the climate change
C．shows that the climate will turn cold
D．is affected by global warming
9．Beijing had its biggest snowfall since 1951 because of ________．
A．a fence from the Arctic
B．a cooling trend in climate
C．a big outbreak of Arctic air
D．its large population
10．We can conclude that________．
A．not all the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )parts of the Northern Hemisphere are cold in face of the cold snap
B．the zigzag pattern arises naturally accidentallywww.21-cn-jy.com
C．Beijing will get cold weather next year
D．Washington state and Alaska will not face cold weather next year

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
In a world with limit ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed land，water and other natural resources(资源)，the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise.Actually，the past decade has seen more and more forests disappearing and the globe becoming increasingly warm.People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed，and that we must be able to develop in sustainable(可持续的) ways.That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products.In other words，we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.【版权所有：21教育】
Today，sustaina ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ble development is a popular trend in many countries.According to a recent study，the global market for low－carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decade.China，for example，has set its mind on leading that market，hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution.It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy，and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high－speed trains.In addition，we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil(棕榈油)，which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest.In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.
Governments can ful ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly develop the potential of these new markets.First，they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions(排放)and targets for saving and reusing energy.Besides，stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally，governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction，and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.
The major challenge ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of a growing population within the limits of this single planet.That is no small task，but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.
36．The traditional b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )usiness model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that________．
A．it makes the world warmer
B．it consumes natural resources
C．it brings severe damage to forests
D．it makes growth hard to continue
37．What can we infer from Paragraph 2
A．China lacks wind and solar energy.
B．China is the leader of the low－carbon market.
C．High－speed trains are a low－carbon development.
D．Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.21·cn·jy·com
38．To fully develop the low－carbon markets，government can________．
A．cut public expenses
B．forbid carbon emission
C．develop public resources
D．encourage energy conservation
39．We can learn from t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he last paragraph that businesses have many chances to________．
A．develop sustainable products
B．explore new natural resources
C．make full use of natural resources
D．deal with the major challenge
40．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To introduce a new business model.
B．To compare two business models.
C．To predict a change of the global market.
D．To advocate sustainable development.
B
I have to say I u ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sually want to throw up when I hear someone say each of us has a purpose because I realize that as far as most people are concerned it is the cliche (陈词滥调). I do believe it is true that as humans we all feel that we must be here for a purpose, but I also know that most of us have no idea what that purpose is.
For most people the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) problem is that they don't believe that they have a passion. I know you hear it all the time：“find your passion”. The key step is hard to make if someone is so numb，that they don't know what their passion could possibly be. Somehow we seem to hang onto our failures and limits more than we do our success，which is just human nature. Stop and think about the things that you have always done well and loved to do，which will help you find your passion.21·世纪*教育网
We should know it's ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )easy to determine our purpose, but your purpose must be combined with your passion. For example, I have been involved in weight lifting and fitness since I was in my twenties and have a great deal of self－taught knowledge about bodybuilding. All I had to do was take an exam from a certifying organization to gain my certification and be a fitness trainer which is my purpose. I had a purpose and passion so I made it at last. 【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
Generally, your p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urpose must be in the area that you love, enjoy and are passionate(狂热的，热诚的) about and that is why you have chosen to spend time and energy to realize it. Your success will always be greater when you are working in an area that you are passionate about.
41．The author believes that________．
A．each of us has a purpose
B．few people have a purpose
C．most of us have a purpose
D．all of us need a purpose
42．Which of the fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )llowing is the most important to you according to the author
A．Finding your passion.
B．Hanging onto your success.
C．Giving up your failures.
D．Setting up your purpose.
43．Many people can't get rid of their failures because________．
A．they have become very numb
B．they don't know what success is
C．it's difficult to change their nature
D．many things limit their actions
44．The author uses ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )his own example in Paragraph 3 to show that________．
A．being a fitness trainer is promising
B．purpose and passion can lead to success
C．it's possible for you to find a purpose
D．all successful people have a purpose
45．You should choose your purpose in the area where
________．
A．you have expert knowledge，interest and passion
B．you have to work hard to make a living
C．you have interest and less special knowledge
D．you enjoy your work and have few skills

We have learned infor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mation about global warming，whether in school，from TV programs，or by overhearing the adults around us.The pieces of information and facts are everywhere，but where on earth does global warming come from？How does it relate to our lives？And what can we do to help
Let's check out The ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Down to Earth Guide to Global Warming，written by Americans Laurie David and Cambria Gordon.In the book，the concept of sustainability(可持续性的概念)is compared to the love of your pet.“Even though your cat might pee(撒尿)on your bedspread or your dog might chew your favourite shoes，you still keep it．You don't throw it away.”The planet is also compared to your messy room，and CO2 and temperature“go together like peanut butter and jelly(果酱)”．
While a mere one ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )degree increase in world temperature might seem small，a comparison of a popsicle(冰棒)you can lick(舔)and one you’d have to drink may make your concern for global warming grow.
The book，constru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cted from 100 percent recycled paper and printed with soy(黄豆)inks，has a chapter“What you can do to stop global warming”．There are tips you might have already known，but the book has more interesting ideas.For example，leading an unplugged(不通电的)life for a day，or considering your career ambitions in light of climate change.From hydrologist(水文工作者)to biofuel(生物燃料)engineer，they are careers that are sustainable and can be realized.

[1]“Show the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m the money！”That's what some people are saying for college athletes.They say students who play sports for their school should receive salaries(薪水)．
[2]Top athletes s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hould be paid because many of them practice full time，Mark Jameson argues. Rico Cannon，a former college football player，agrees.“Nonathletes can get a job for extra spending money，but many student athletes spend so many hours in training that they don't have time to work，”he explains.“Shouldn't athletes be able to earn extra money too？”
[3]College a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thletes are about honor and tradition，but they're also a business.With ticket sales, schools have money to build new athletic stadiums and give the coaches high salaries.The cash should be________athletes.They're the ones out on the field or the court working hard for their school.
[4]The money matt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er has others crying_foul,_though.Kaitlyn Rentala argues that colleges should not pay their athletes，Students are in school to get an education. Playing a sport is an extracurricular(课外的)activity，not a job.If athletes need extra money，they can apply for college scholarships(奖学金)．Michael Massett is a middle school teacher and a football and basketball coach.He agrees.“Athletes should be paid with scholarships，like non－athletes are，”Massett explains.
[5]In addition，i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f colleges pay their athletes，those students might focus more on sports than on their education.“Most students do not become professional athletes after college.If they focus too much on sports，they may not learn the skills they need to get good jobs，”Kate Macrae reasons. Plus，she says，many athletes have scholarships that help them pay for school.

【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。文章讲述的是 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )风靡全球的漫画人物“呆伯特”的创作者Scott Adams 在遇到挫折时，因受到鼓舞而坚持并最终获得成功的故事。对他来说，这份鼓励是一份永远无法偿还的礼物。www-2-1-cnjy-com
16．D
17．B 由段首的I was at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tracted by...“Funny Business”以及下文的all my questions about drawing material and requirements for submission可知，“我”一直都想“进入(get into)”卡通业，“但(but)”却不知该从何处入手。
18．C “我”是偶然间看到这个节目的，因此是抄下“地址(address)”给主持人写信。
19．B 由下文的answering all my questions 可知，“我”向主持人杰克征询专业的“建议(advice)”。
20．A 由下文的saying t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat my sample cartoons were...and worth publishing 以及I'm writing this note is to again encourage you可知，这是一封“鼓励(encouraging)”的信件。
21．C 由下文的But h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e went further，saying...的转折可知，杰克在夸“我”的漫画样品很棒，值得发表的同时，还“告诫(warned)”“我”最初的时候可能会遭到很多拒绝。
22．A 由worth publishing可知漫画样品很“棒(good)”。
23．B

31．C 由本句中的to again ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) encourage you 以及下句的I wish you lots of luck，sales，and good drawing可知，杰克再次来信是为了鼓励作者能“继续(keep)”画漫画，并把他的“想法(ideas)”画出来投给各个杂志社。ideas此处指画漫画的灵感、素材等。
32．D 根据本句的I took o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ut my art brushes and set to work on the sample cartoons now known as“Dilbert”可知，自从“我”放弃画画后，“又一次(Again)”拿起了画笔。
33．A 由known as “Dilbert”可知，漫画“呆伯特”很“成功(successful)”。
34．B 两封鼓励信对于杰克来说仅仅只是朴实简单的“善意之举(act of kindness)”，而对作者却产生了很大的影响。

Climate cha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nge will force exhausted birds migrating to Europe from Africa to travel further with possibly disastrous consequences，according to a study.
The annual voyage o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f some species，which fly north in search of food and suitable habitats，could increase by as much as 400 kilometers(250 miles)，the research found.“Marathon migrations for some birds are set to become even longer，”said Stephen Willis, a professor at Durham University in Britain and the main architect of the study.“This is bad news for birds like the Whitethroat，a common farmland bird.The added distance is a considerable threat.As temperatures rise and habitats change，birds will face their biggest challenge since the Pleistocene era(更新世：始于距今180万年)，which ended 11，000 years ago，”he said in a statement.
