The results of failing to keep the world’s temperature down are beginning to show.Extreme weather events are likely to become more frequent, and the world’s peoples and their governments are being urged to do more to handle climate change.
Ma Jun, director of the Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs, an environmental group in Beijing, said the consensus among scientists now is that “climate change has resulted in an increase in extreme weather events across the globe, including temperature extremes, heavy rains, river floods, droughts, storms, as well as compound events”.
Over the past few years heat waves have occurred in places that had previously enjoyed mild weather, higher temperatures have occurred in normally colder regions, and places that are hot are now frequently enduring wildfires, he said, citing a report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) that includes a whole chapter on weather extremes.
The IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report said it is an“established fact”that human-caused greenhouse gas emissions have led to an increased frequency of some weather and climate extremes since preindustrial times.
The global surface temperature is now about 1.09C higher than in the preindustrial period(1850-1900) with stronger warming over land (1.59 C) than over oceans.
Extreme weather events have continued to hit the glebe this year and have killed many people, disrupted (扰乱) the lives of millions and disrupted production.
In Europe, after a summer of extremely high temperatures, violent thunderstorms and hurricane-force winds have hit the continent, leaving at least 13 people dead in Austria, France and Italy by Friday, authorities said.
The Netherlands is one of many European countries that have suffered drought this summer, bringing water shortages in the low-lying country as inland rivers and lakes have fallen to historically low levels.
4. What is the consensus among scientist
A. Increased extreme weather events resulted from climate change.
B. There will be more extreme weather events in the near future.
C. The government are to blame for the increased extreme weather.
D. The government should reach a consensus on climate change.
5. What can we conclude from the third paragraph
A. People in tropical areas will have to endure more wildfires.
B. Places enjoying mild weather will always have heat waves.
C. Cold regions normally have experienced higher temperatures.
D. The IPCC report places great emphasis on weather extremes.
6. How do you understand“an established fact”mentioned by the IPCC
A. It means the fact has to be proved through experiments.
B. It means the fact has been agreed on commonly by scientists.
C. The fact is that green gas is to blame for more extreme events.
D. Scientists have to establish the fact by doing more experiments.
7. What might be the best title of the article
A. An SOS Goes out as Globe Burns and Drowns
B. More Disasters will Happen around the World
C. The Global Surface Temperature is Higher than Ever
D. Governments are being Urged to Do More
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述的是极端高温、暴雨、河流洪水、干旱、风暴等极端天气变得越来越频繁，地球正在遭受淹没和燃烧，由此呼吁世界各国人民采取更多的措施来应对气候变化。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“the consensus among scientists now is that“climate change has resulted in an increase in extreme weather events across the globe, including temperature extremes, heavy rains, river floods, droughts, storms, as well as compound events”(科学家们现在的共识是，“气候变化导致全球极端天气事件的增加，包括极端温度、暴雨、河流洪水、干旱、风暴，以及复合事件。”)”可知，科学家们的共识是极端天气事件增多是气候变化造成的。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“he said, citing a report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) that includes a whole chapter on weather extremes.( 他引用了IPCC的一份报告，其中有一整章都是关于极端天气的。)”可知，IPCC的这份报告中专门有一章论述有关“极端天气”的内容，故IPCC的报告非常强调极端天气。故选D。
【6题详解】
词义意猜测题。根据第四段中“The IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report said (IPCC AR6综合报告说)”可知，后面的内容为报告中陈述的内容，同时根据an “established fact”后面的内容“that human-caused greenhouse gas emissions have led to an increased frequency of some weather and climate extremes since preindustrial times.(自前工业化时代以来，人为造成的温室气体排放已经导致一些极端天气和气候的频率增加。)”可知，该项事实的内容是报告中陈述的内容，故可以推断an “established fact”表示“既定的事实”即意味着这一事实已被科学家们普遍认同。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Extreme weather events are likely to become more frequent, and the world’s peoples and their governments are being urged to do more to handle climate change.(极端天气事件可能会变得更加频繁，世界各国人民及其政府被敦促采取更多措施应对气候变化。)”可知，本文主要讲述的是极端天气变得越来越频繁，世界各国人民采取更多的措施来应对气候变化。同时根据第二段中“the consensus among scientists now is that“climate change has resulted in an increase in extreme weather events across the globe, including temperature extremes, heavy rains, river floods, droughts, storms, as well as compound events”(科学家们现在的共识是，“气候变化导致全球极端天气事件的增加，包括极端温度、暴雨、河流洪水、干旱、风暴，以及复合事件。”)”以及通读全文，这些极端天气具体体现在极端温度、暴雨、河流洪水、干旱、风暴，以及复合事件即整个地球在不断地遭受燃烧和淹没等极端天气，从而向全世界人们发出求救信号，敦促各国人民采取更多措施应对气候变化。故A选项“An SOS Goes out as Globe Burns and Drowns(随着地球的燃烧和淹没，SOS信号发出)”符合文章的标题。故选A。
C
Gaelic had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the culture continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were leaving for English-speaking cities.
Iain Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic culture when he moved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mòr Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where the revival of Scotland’s Gaelic culture started.
Of course, the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local jobs and help make the area known to tourists.
Noble’s wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tried hard to find people who had left Skye, “Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were working in Aberdeen, in London and further afield,” said Lucilla.
“Now I’ve seen some cool youngsters who are very proud of their Gaelic, and they are fascinated by the culture,” she said.
One such youngster is 15-year-old Emily Macdonald. She not only speaks Gaelic fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.
“I feel like we’re even more wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive, because it is really important to our nation,” she said. “And to have this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite special.”
8. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about
A. The fall of Gaelic. B. The future of Gaelic.
C. The influence of Gaelic. D. The advantages of Gaelic.
9. What is the key to the college’s success
A. Having the best Gaelic teachers. B. Teaching students professional skills.
C. Receiving much government support. D. Being open to both natives and foreigners.
10. What did Lucilla tell us about Noble
A. He made much money from the college.
B. He traveled a lot to spread Gaelic culture.
C. He spared no effort to do his cultural work.
D. He became world-famous because of his college.
11. What does Emily Macdonald think of Gaelic language
A. It is the pride of their nation. B. It is hard to learn for youngsters.
C. It has changed a lot over the years. D. It attracts fewer local young people.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了由于一些原因，盖尔语在苏格兰文化中的地位被削弱。作为商人的伊恩·诺布尔为了恢复这种文化，他建立大学，寻求教师，教授学生学习这种语言。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Gaelic had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its power. ”（盖尔语一直是苏格兰的主要文化，但许多势力试图削弱它的力量。）可知，由于多方势力的原因，盖尔语在苏格兰文化中的力量被削弱。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in industries like media and business.”（这所大学教授语言和文化。但是取得如此令人印象深刻的文化成就的秘诀是给语言学习者提供诸如在媒体和商业等行业中的技能。）可知，这所大学的成功在于它教授学生相关领域的技能。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Noble’s wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tied hard to find people who had left Skye, “Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were working in Aberdeen, in London and further afield,” said Lucilla.”（诺布尔的妻子露西拉夫人说，他恢复文化的渴望是显而易见的。在花了很多钱建立这所大学之后，诺布尔不得不花费很大的精力去寻找有价值的老师。有时他会努力寻找离开斯凯的人，“伊恩会邀请那些家人来自斯凯，但在阿伯丁、伦敦和更远的地方工作的人,”露西拉说。）可知，对于恢复文化，诺布尔除了花钱建立大学外，他还花费精力去寻找老师。由此可知，诺布尔对于文化的恢复是不遗余力的。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“She not only speaks Gaelic fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.”（她不仅能和朋友们流利地讲盖尔语，而且对此感到兴奋。）最后一段““I feel like we’re even more wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive, because it is really important to our nation,” she said. “And to have this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite special.””（她说：“我觉得我们甚至更想说盖尔语，为了保持它的活力，因为它对我们的国家真的很重要。”“拥有这种我们可以用来交流的特殊语言是非常特别的。”）可知，在 Emily Macdonald认为，讲盖尔语不但让她觉得这对自己的国家重要，而且让她觉得兴奋，即讲盖尔语对她而言是自豪的。故选A。
D
Earthquakes have rocked the planet for many years. Studying the quakes of the past could help scientists better understand modern earthquakes, but tools to do such work are exiguous.
Enter zircons. Researchers used this special means to home in on the temperatures within a fault (地壳断层) during earthquakes millions of years ago. The method offers insights into the strength of long-ago quakes, and can improve the understanding of how today’s earthquakes release energy, the researchers reported in the April Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.
“The more we understand about the past, the more we can understand what might happen in the future,” said Emma Armstrong, a professor specializing in earthquakes at Utah State University in Logan. Armstrong and his colleagues focused on California’s Punchbowl Fault. That now-quiet portion of the larger San Andreas Fault was probably active between 1 million to 10 million years ago, Armstrong said.
Heat from friction (摩擦) is generated in a fault when it slips and touches off an earthquake. Previous analyses of preserved organic material suggested that temperatures within the Punchbowl Fault peaked between 465℃ and 1065℃. The researchers suspected that zircons in rocks from the fault could narrow that broad window. Zircons often contain the radioactive chemical elements uranium (U) and thorium ( Th), which decay (衰变) to helium (He) at a predictable rate. That helium (He) then builds up in the crystals. But when a zircon is heated past a temperature criticality value—the size of which depends on the zircon’s composition—the accumulated helium (He) escapes.
Measuring the amounts of the three elements in zircons from the fault suggests that the most in-tense earthquake generated temperatures lower than 800℃. That roughly halves the range previously reported. The finding provides useful clues to the amount of heat released by quakes, something difficult to measure for modern earthquakes because they often occur at great depths. Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons, in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.
12. What does the underlined word “exiguous” in Paragraph 1 mean
A. Scarce. B. Difficult. C. Pricey. D. Extraordinary.
13. What are the researcher’s assumptions about the zircons in rocks
A. They can lead to various earthquakes. B. They determine how much of their energy.
C. They can reduce the fault temperature range. D. They would decay over long periods.
14. What might Emma Armstrong study next
A. Impact of changing earthquakes on zircons.
B. Origin and development of enter zircons.
C. Difference between modern and ancient quakes.
D. More ways to use zircons for ancient quake study.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Earthquakes Bring about Global W arming
B. Ancient Zircons Help to Unearth Earthquakes
C. An Innovative Means Makes a Hit in Studying
D. Zircons Changed Our Views of Earthquakes
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员利用锆石这种特殊的工具来研究古代地震，从而揭示关于现代地震的新见解。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Studying the quakes of the past could help scientists better understand modern earthquakes”（研究过去的地震可以帮助科学家更好地了解现代地震）引出话题，以及之后的but转折和最后一段中“The finding provides useful clues to the amount of heat released by quakes, something difficult to measure for modern earthquakes because they often occur at great depths. Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons, in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.”（这一发现为地震释放的热量提供了有用的线索，而对于现代地震来说，这是很难测量的，因为它们经常发生在极深的地方。阿姆斯特朗计划继续研究锆石，希望找到更多利用它们的方法来了解古代地震的细节。）说明对于现代地震来说测量工作的难度，故可猜测，exiguous为“缺乏的、罕见的”意思，结合选项A项Scarce“稀缺的”意思一致。故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Previous analyses of preserved organic material suggested that temperatures within the Punchbowl Fault peaked between 465℃ and 1065℃. The researchers suspected that zircons in rocks from the fault could narrow that broad window.”（此前对保存下来有机物质的分析表明，Punchbowl断层内的温度峰值在465℃至1065℃之间。研究人员怀疑，断层岩石中的锆石可能会缩小这一峰值范围。）可知，研究人员猜想，断层处岩石中的锆石可能会缩小温度范围。故选C项
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons, in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.”（阿姆斯特朗计划继续研究锆石，希望找到更多利用它们的方法来了解古代地震的细节。）可知，阿姆斯特朗计划继续研究锆石，希望能利用它们找到更多的方法来了解古代地震的细节。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一句“Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons, in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.”（阿姆斯特朗计划继续研究锆石，希望找到更多利用它们的方法来了解古代地震的细节。）可知，文章主要讲的是研究过去的地震可以帮助研究人员更好地理解现代地震，研究人员利用特殊的工具——锆石，了解数百万年前地壳断层达到的温度，从而对现代地震有新的了解。故可知，文章最好的标题为“古代锆石有助于揭示地震”。故选B项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The science teacher, Mr. Moose, decided that the school would have a paper airplane contest. Each student would design a paper airplane. And then they would take turns throwing their airplanes. The student whose airplane flew the farthest would win.
When Mr. Moose announced the paper airplane contest, all the students were very excited. Paul, who was on the wrestling team, said to other students: “I am the strongest. And I will be able to throw my airplane the farthest.”
However, another student, Brian, was thinking how he could win. He did not play any sports and was not very strong. But he loved airplanes and really wanted to win the contest.
Brian knew what he had to do. He went to the store and bought a big stack of paper. When he got home, he took the paper into the backyard. He took a piece of paper and folded an airplane. It didn't go very far, so Brian took another sheet and folded another airplane and threw it. This airplane went a little farther. Brian kept folding different kinds of airplanes and throwing them. Some went very far and some did not. Finally, when Brian had used all the paper, he walked up to the airplane that had flown the farthest and picked it up.

【答案】
第一段：
Finally, it was Brian's turn. Brian took the airplane that he had folded the day before. He walked up to the line and,with all his strength, he threw the plane. It went flying, farther and farther, until finally it landed 10 feet past Paul's plane! The whole school cheered. Brian won the contest. Mr Moose gave him a prize:a toy airplane.
第二段：
Brian won because he tried out many solutions to the problem of how to make an airplane fly very far. He did this by testing out many different designs and comparing the results. When he found the design that worked best and the paper airplane that flew the farthest, he was happy to use it.

The results of failing to keep the world’s temperature down are beginning to show.Extreme weather events are likely to become more frequent, and the world’s peoples and their governments are being urged to do more to handle climate change.
Ma Jun, director of the Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs, an environmental group in Beijing, said the consensus among scientists now is that “climate change has resulted in an increase in extreme weather events across the globe, including temperature extremes, heavy rains, river floods, droughts, storms, as well as compound events”.
Over the past few years heat waves have occurred in places that had previously enjoyed mild weather, higher temperatures have occurred in normally colder regions, and places that are hot are now frequently enduring wildfires, he said, citing a report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC) that includes a whole chapter on weather extremes.
The IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report said it is an“established fact”that human-caused greenhouse gas emissions have led to an increased frequency of some weather and climate extremes since preindustrial times.
The global surface temperature is now about 1.09C higher than in the preindustrial period(1850-1900), with stronger warming over land (1.59 C) than over oceans.
Extreme weather events have continued to hit the glebe this year and have killed many people, disrupted (扰乱) the lives of millions and disrupted production.
In Europe, after a summer of extremely high temperatures, violent thunderstorms and hurricane-force winds have hit the continent, leaving at least 13 people dead in Austria, France and Italy by Friday, authorities said.
The Netherlands is one of many European countries that have suffered drought this summer, bringing water shortages in the low-lying country as inland rivers and lakes have fallen to historically low levels.
4 What is the consensus among scientist
A. Increased extreme weather events resulted from climate change.
B. There will be more extreme weather events in the near future.
C. The government are to blame for the increased extreme weather.
D. The government should reach a consensus on climate change.
5. What can we conclude from the third paragraph
A. People in tropical areas will have to endure more wildfires.
B. Places enjoying mild weather will always have heat waves.
C. Cold regions normally have experienced higher temperatures.
D. The IPCC report places great emphasis on weather extremes.
6. How do you understand“an established fact”mentioned by the IPCC
A. It means the fact has to be proved through experiments.
B. It means the fact has been agreed on commonly by scientists.
C. The fact is that green gas is to blame for more extreme events.
D. Scientists have to establish the fact by doing more experiments.
7. What might be the best title of the article
A. An SOS Goes out as Globe Burns and Drowns
B. More Disasters will Happen around the World
C. The Global Surface Temperature is Higher than Ever
D. Governments are being Urged to Do More
C
Gaelic had been the major culture in Scotland. But many forces tried to weaken its power. The final straw came in 1609, when some laws required Highland Scottish leaders to send their children to English-speaking schools. Naturally, the culture continued to weaken through the 20th century. Though Gaelic still existed in some rural areas, a lack of jobs meant young people in Gaelic areas were leaving for English-speaking cities.
Iain Noble was a wealthy businessman from Germany. He quickly fell in love with Gaelic culture when he moved to Scotland. So he set up the college of Sabhal Mòr Ostaig in 1973 on the Isle of Skye. Today, it has more than 1,000 students and is officially the National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture. It is where the revival of Scotland’s Gaelic culture started.
Of course, the college teaches the language and culture. But the secret to making such impressive cultural achievements is giving language learners skills in industries like media and business. The skills allow students to create local jobs and help make the area known to tourists.
Noble’s wife Lady Lucilla said his eagerness to revive the culture was clear. After spending much money setting up the college, Noble had to go to great lengths to find worthwhile teachers. Sometimes he tried hard to find people who had left Skye, “Iain would invite those whose families were from Skye but who were working in Aberdeen, in London and further afield,” said Lucilla.
“Now I’ve seen some cool youngsters who are very proud of their Gaelic, and they are fascinated by the culture,” she said.
One such youngster is 15-year-old Emily Macdonald. She not only speaks Gaelic fluently with her friends, but is excited to do so.
“I feel like we’re even more wanting to speak Gaelic, just to keep it alive, because it is really important to our nation,” she said. “And to have this special language that we can speak to each other in is quite special.”
8. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about
A. The fall of Gaelic. B. The future of Gaelic.
C. The influence of Gaelic. D. The advantages of Gaelic.
9. What is the key to the college’s success
A. Having the best Gaelic teachers. B. Teaching students professional skills.
C. Receiving much government support. D. Being open to both natives and foreigners.
10. What did Lucilla tell us about Noble
A. He made much money from the college.
B. He traveled a lot to spread Gaelic culture.
C. He spared no effort to do his cultural work.
D. He became world-famous because of his college.
11. What does Emily Macdonald think of Gaelic language
A. It is the pride of their nation. B. It is hard to learn for youngsters.
C. It has changed a lot over the years. D. It attracts fewer local young people.
D
Earthquakes have rocked the planet for many years. Studying the quakes of the past could help scientists better understand modern earthquakes but tools to do such work are exiguous.
Enter zircons. Researchers used this special means to home in on the temperatures within a fault (地壳断层) during earthquakes millions of years ago. The method offers insights into the strength of long-ago quakes, and can improve the understanding of how today’s earthquakes release energy, the researchers reported in the April Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems.
“The more we understand about the past, the more we can understand what might happen in the future,” said Emma Armstrong, a professor specializing in earthquakes at Utah State University in Logan. Armstrong and his colleagues focused on California’s Punchbowl Fault. That now-quiet portion of the larger San Andreas Fault was probably active between 1 million to 10 million years ago, Armstrong said.
Heat from friction (摩擦) is generated in a fault when it slips and touches off an earthquake. Previous analyses of preserved organic material suggested that temperatures within the Punchbowl Fault peaked between 465℃ and 1065℃. The researchers suspected that zircons in rocks from the fault could narrow that broad window. Zircons often contain the radioactive chemical elements uranium (U) and thorium ( Th), which decay (衰变) to helium (He) at a predictable rate. That helium (He) then builds up in the crystals. But when a zircon is heated past a temperature criticality value—the size of which depends on the zircon’s composition—the accumulated helium (He) escapes.
Measuring the amounts of the three elements in zircons from the fault suggests that the most in-tense earthquake generated temperatures lower than 800℃. That roughly halves the range previously reported. The finding provides useful clues to the amount of heat released by quakes something difficult to measure for modern earthquakes because they often occur at great depths. Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons, in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.
