(2023· 石家庄质量检测) There are few places on Earth that humans haven't messed up.Now even Antarctica, the only continent with no permanent human inhabitants, is being altered by us.A study found that the increasing human presence in Antarctica is causing more snow melt — bad news for a frozen world already battling the effects of human-caused global warming.
Black carbon, the dark, dusty pollution that comes from burning fossil fuels has settled in locations where tourists and researchers spend a lot of time, scientists found.Even the smallest amount of the dark pollutant can have a significant impact on melting because of its very low reflectiveness: Things that are light in colour, like snow, reflect the sun's energy and stay cool; things that are dark, like black carbon, absorb the sun's energy and warm up.
“The snow albedo (反照率) effect is one of the largest uncertainties in regional and global climate modeling right now，” Alia Khan, a snow and ice scientist at Western Washington University, told CNN.“That's one of the motivations for the study, to quantify the impact of black carbon on regional snowmelt, which is important for quantifying the role of black carbon in the global loss of snow and ice.”
“Antarctica is sitting there pretty much silently all year.But, if it weren't there, in the state that it is meant to be, the balance that we have in the climate system will no longer be，” Marilyn Raphael, a geography professor said.“Antarctica's sea ice is also important to maintain a balance in atmospheric circulation，” he added.As waters get warmer, some Antarctic creatures are finding their homes more and more unlivable.
“Everything we do has consequences，” Raphael said.“We need to educate ourselves about those consequences, especially in systems that we know relatively little about.We have to be careful that we don't upset the climate balance.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了科学家发现燃烧化石燃料后留下的炭黑会加速南极洲的冰雪融化，并呼吁人们停止破坏气候平衡。

A．It is highly reflective.
B．Its dark colour absorbs heat.
C．It produces vast energy.
D．It causes much pollution.

A．The change caused by Antarctic melting.
B．The methods of stopping Antarctic ice melting.
C．The significance of the Antarctic being in its state.
D．The sufferings Antarctic creatures are experiencing.
解析：选C 段落大意题。根据第四段中Raphael的话以及最后一句可知，本段主要讲了南极洲变暖对南极洲的生态平衡、大气环流和生物的影响。故C项“保持南极洲本来状态的重要性”能概括本段大意。
4．What does Raphael advise people to do
A．Reduce tourist numbers.
B．Face the consequences.
C．Acquire professional education.
D．Stop disturbing the climate balance.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“We have to ... don't upset the climate balance.”可知，Raphael建议人们不要破坏气候平衡。

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新型的垃圾处理方法——智能垃圾桶在城市的试用，并有望得到推广，有助于中国的绿色发展得到转型。
5．解析：选C 根据上文可知，新型的垃圾处理办法已经出现了。根据下文可知，接下来文章主要介绍智能垃圾桶的特点及使用，所以空处应该讲的是这种智能垃圾桶的使用前景。故C项“它将在未来变得更受欢迎”承上启下，符合上下文语境。且C项中的it指代下文的the smart garbage can。
6．解析：选E 根据上文可知，环境问题亟待解决，所以空处应该讲怎么解决这一令人头疼的问题。E项“因此，鼓励垃圾分类已成为一种有效的方法”指出解决这一问题的办法，与上文构成因果关系，符合上下文语境。
7．解析：选G 上文提到智能垃圾桶正在投入使用，所以空处应该讲智能垃圾桶投入使用的例子。故G项“例如，在北京，人们可以看到一个配备LED屏幕的智能垃圾桶”承接上文，而且空后的“It not only shows ...”与选项的“LED screen”呼应。
8．解析：选B 根据上文可知，此处是在介绍另外一种智能垃圾桶；根据下文可知，空处应该讲这种新型智能垃圾桶的特点。故B项“它配备了一些内部传感器”承上启下，其中的“some internal sensors”和下文的“the internal sensors”呼应，符合上下文语境。
9．解析：选D 根据下文可知，垃圾处理问题就社会而言是个大问题；由“however”可知，空前后内容为转折关系，故D项“垃圾处理是一个每天都涉及到每个人的小问题”与后文意思相对，其中的“small”对应空后的“big”，符合上下文语境。
Ⅲ.语法填空

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。
(2023·衡水中学调研) My senior year of high school was an extremely busy one, to say the least.If I wasn't studying and worrying about my grades, I was taking part in multiple extracurricular activities or attempting to make preparations for college.
Finally, as my senior year began to wind down, I got a part-time job at the local cafe.I had figured that the job would be easy and, for the most part, stress-free.I pictured myself pouring excellent coffee, making delicious cakes and becoming close friends with the regular customers.
What I hadn't counted on were the people with great orders who chose to use the drive-through window, or the women who felt that the coffee was much too creamy, or the men who wanted their iced coffee remade again and again until it reached a certain level of perfection.There were moments when I was annoyed with the human race as a whole, simply because I couldn't seem to please anyone.Nevertheless, I kept at it.
One miserable rainy day, I spent my afternoon handing people their orders and waiting as they slowly counted their pennies.I tried to smile as the customers complained about the rain, but it was difficult to smile as they sat in their temperature-controlled cars with the windows rolled up while I dealt with huge droplets of water hanging from my visor (帽舌)．On top of that, no one was tipping.Every time I looked into my nearly empty tip jar, I grew more depressed.
Around four o'clock, one of my regular customers named Hank came in looking depressed and defeated.My coworker and I asked what the problem was and if we could help, but he wouldn't reveal any details.He just said he felt like crawling into bed, pulling the sheets up over his head and staying there for a few years.I knew exactly how he felt.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1：
Before Hank left, I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee.

参考范文：
Paragraph 1：
Before Hank left, I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee.He looked at me questioningly because he hadn't ordered anything but the coffee.He opened the bag and saw that I had given him his favorite type of cake.“It's on me，” I told him.“Have a nice day.” He smiled and thanked me before turning around and heading back out into the rain.
Paragraph 2：
Around seven o'clock the next evening, Hank drove up to the window.Instead of ordering anything, he handed me a single pink rose.He said that not too many people took the time to care about others, and he was glad there were still people like me in the world.I was very touched and almost forgot what had happened the previous day.I happily thanked him.As the day passed, I had plenty of complaining customers, but any time I felt depressed, I thought of Hank and his kindness.I would smile, hold my head up high, clear my throat and politely ask, “How can I help you？”

(2023·沈阳质量监测) Danish architecture studio Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) has designed Terminus AI City Operating System as a campus in Chongqing, China, which will be operated by an artificial intelligence system.Everything in the city will be operated by this system.
BIG has drawn up the plans for Terminus Group, which will have its headquarters at the centre of the AI-run city campus.
The development will be located in Chongqing Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone and will include Cloud Valley, the campus-style headquarters of Terminus Group.“We have over the recent years worked with several of the world's leading technology companies.We are thrilled to bring our experience to Chongqing，”said Bjarke Ingels, founder of BIG.“Cloud Valley is imagined as a city where people, technology and nature live together in harmony with spaces designed for all types of life: human life, animal life, plant life and even artificial life.”
BIG's design for Cloud Valley is intended to demonstrate the environmental goals of the project.Green roof panels will create open-air courtyards throughout the campus.These courtyards will host art exhibitions and sports events.At night, the underside of the roof panels will be transformed into what BIG describes as “the largest digital display in China”．
In the AI City, people will live in homes with self-adjusting solar panels and have a digital assistant to run their lives.Buildings will have power systems controlled by Terminus Group software.
“As sunlight hits the houses, bedroom windows become transparent to allow the natural light to wake sleepy residents，” said Terminus Group.“Once the light has filled the room, an AI housekeeper selects your breakfast, matches your outfit with the weather, and presents a full schedule of your day using Terminus Group's smart transportation solution.”
The AI City will have e-bikes and self-driving cars to cut down on traffic jams.
