第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
The Great Wall, China
Stretching over 21,000 kilometers, the Great Wall was built to prevent invasions and has a history of more than 2,000 years. UNESCO in February, 2019 called it an absolute masterpiece, not only because of the ambitious character of the undertaking but also because of the perfection of its construction.
But perfection isn't protection. 51.2 percent of the Great Wall either has already disappeared or is at significant risk of disappearing. Besides wind and rain erosion, the main reasons for the destruction of the Great Wall are human factors such as tourism, construction, and human contact.
Pamukkale, Turkey
Pamukkale, which means “cotton castle” in Turkish, is famous for its shining white calcite terraces (方解石阶地) with warm and mineral rich water flowing.
Before being listed as a World Heritage Site in 1988, Pamukkale had been severely damaged by human activities. People used hot spring water to fill swimming pools; some visitors stood on the rocks and some even bathed in the hot springs with soap and shampoo. To protect the terraces, the Turkish government has decided to pull down the hotels and require all tourists to visit this site barefoot.
The Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Home to over 400 types of coral and 1,500 species of fish, the Great Barrier Reef draws visitors to Australia from all over the world.
However, the Great Barrier Reef is expected to suffer increasingly frequent bleaching events, cases in which corals turn white and may die, according to a UNESCO report. The heatwaves caused by global warming have killed half of the coral here in the past two years, according to a CNN report. Pollution from industry development and harmful fishing practices are also big concerns.
The Dead Sea, on the Israel Jordan border
At 429 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is 8 times saltier than the ocean, meaning that the water is so dense that even tourists who can't swim will be able to float.
But the seaside resorts built in the 1980s now sit kilometers away from the edge of the water, which has lost half of its surface area in the past 40 years. The damage is irreversible due to the nature of the mineral industry and the type of the agricultural use that consumes lots of water.
21.Which of the following are you required to visit without shoes
A.The Great Wall, China.
B.Pamukkale, Turkey.
C.The Great Barrier Reef, Australia.
D.The Dead Sea, on the Israel Jordan border.
22.Which of the following statements is true
A.The main reason for the destruction of the Great Wall is wind and rain erosion.
B.Pamukkale was damaged by human activities after 1988.
C.Pollution and the heatwaves caused by global warming killed much coral in the Great Barrier Reef.
D.Half of the Dead Sea's surface area has disappeared in the past two decades.
23.What do the above spots have in common
A.They are all famous endangered natural spots.
B.They're damaged only by human activities.
C.They all draw the attention of the governments.
D.They're all seriously damaged.
B
Our warming world may be impacting on where birds show up during the winter. Scientists have found that the resident communities' birds that appear at eastern North America's backyard bird feeders (鸟食罐) in winter have changed as temperatures have increased.
For the average birdwatcher, seeing cardinals (红衣凤头鸟), chipping sparrows or Carolina wrens visiting their backyard bird feeders is nothing__out__of__the__ordinary. But in this warming world, these and other warm adapted species have greatly expanded their wintering range, a change that may have unforeseen consequences for North American ecosystems, according to the University of Wisconsin Madison wildlife biologists Benjamin Zuckerberg and Karine Prince.
In a newspaper published in the journal GlobalChangeBiology, Zuckerberg and Prince analyzed more than two decades of data on 38 species of birds gathered by thousands of citizen scientists.
“Fifty years ago, cardinals were rare in the northeastern United States,” Zuckerberg explained in a press release. “Carolina wrens even more so.”
The scientists measured the changes over time in the abundance of 38 bird species at feeders in eastern North America. More specifically, they examined the influence of changes in the winter minimum temperature over a 22 year period on the flocks of birds that gathered at backyard feeding stations.
“We've been able to prove in past studies that species are shifting in response to the climate change,” Zuckerberg said. “This study records changes in the community structure. If you have a species coming into a new area, it can change the composition of the community.”
And with climate models predicting temperatures to warm even more over the next century, milder winters with less snow could become normal, so we don't even recognize the bird species in our backyards any more.
24.What's the main idea of the passage
A.The warming world changes the homes of some birds.
B.North America sees fewer birds in winter.
C.The warming world leads to birds disappearing.
D.People can enjoy various kinds of birds at home.
25.What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 2
A.Strange. B.Common.
C.Convenient. D.Exciting.
26.By observing the bird species at feeders it is found that ________.
A.there are 38 bird species living in North America
B.there are 22 packs of birds gathering in the backyard
C.species are changing places according to the climate change
D.Carolina wrens have been used to the cold weather
27.In what section of a web can we read the passage
A.Advertisement. B.Economy.
C.Science. D.Environment.

For years I have had no idea what I have been doing with my life. I was a 30 year old lawyer in New York. But being a lawyer is never my dream or goal in life. I honestly wanted to be a writer. I have a good imagination and would write amazing stories in my mind. But I always knew that being a writer was never possible for me because it was a better financial decision to stay a lawyer.
Recently, I couldn't fall asleep at my usual time of 10 p.m. and when I did fall asleep I had the same dream over and over again. The dream starts with my trying to go for a swim in the ocean and searching for something, but then in the dream I start to drown and have no control over my body. Then a light shines through the water and when I look up all I can see is myself in a bright white room writing a novel. Then I hear a voice say repeatedly, “Now it is time to try something new!”
It wasn't just a dream; it was my opportunity to make something good out of my life. That afternoon, I quit my job at the law firm and I__couldn't__have__been__any__happier. My life started at 30, and since that point I haven't stopped enjoying life. I started to write and have been on the best seller list for the last two months. Things have definitely turned around.
Change is a good thing; it gives us an opportunity to take a chance. So my two favorite words I live by and so should you are “change” and “chance”.
28.What can we know from the first paragraph
A.The author is now 30 years old.
B.It is impossible for the author to become a writer.
C.A lawyer can be likely to earn more than a writer.
D.The author prefers to be a lawyer rather than be a writer.
29.The second paragraph mainly talks about the author's ________.
A.difficulty in sleeping at night
B.strong desire to become a writer
C.wish to have a swim in the ocean
D.terrible swimming experience in the ocean
30.The underlined part in the third paragraph probably means the author ________.
A.regretted having quit his job as a lawyer
B.was unhappy after giving up his job as a lawyer
C.was upset because he had to give up his job as a lawyer
D.was pretty happy after he quit his job as a lawyer
31.What's the best title of the text
A.Lawyer or Writer B.Change and Chance
C.Change and Regret D.Risk or Opportunity
D
Chocolate could soon be a thing of the past after scientists' warning that the cacao plant, from which chocolate is made, could be extinct within 32 years.
Over half of the world's chocolate comes from just two countries in West Africa—Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana—where the temperature, rain, and humidity provide the perfect conditions for cacao to grow. But rising temperatures over the next three decades caused by climate change are expected to result in a loss of water from the ground, which scientists say could upset this balance.
According to the related data, a temperature rise of just 2.1℃ could spell an end for the chocolate industry worldwide by 2050. Farmers in the region are already considering moving cacao production areas thousands of feet uphill into mountainous areas—many of which are currently preserved for wildlife. But a move of this scale could destroy the ecosystems that are already under threat from illegal farming and deforestation.
One of the problems, according to Doug Hawkins, is that cacao farming methods have not changed for hundreds of years. “Unlike other tree crops that have benefited from the development of modern, high yielding strains and crop management techniques to realize their genetic potential, more than 90% of the global cacao crop is produced by small farms with unimproved planting materials,” he said. “It means that we could be facing a chocolate decrease of 100,000 tons a year in the next few years.”
Now scientists at the University of California, Berkeley have teamed up with American candy company Mars to keep chocolate on the menu. Using the controversial (有争议的) gene editing technology known as CRISPR they are trying to develop a type of cacao plant capable of surviving in dryer, warmer climates. If the team's work on the cacao plant is successful, it could remove the need for farmers in West Africa to relocate to higher ground, and perhaps even allow cacao to be grown elsewhere in the world.
32.What do we know about chocolate from the text
A.Chocolate will disappear from the menu 30 years later.
B.Chocolate is mainly produced by African countries.
C.Chocolate will not be produced by 2050 because of climate change.
D.A new type of chocolate will be produced with the help of CRISPR.
33.What is the reason for the probable extinction of the cacao plant
A.The damaged ecosystems.
B.Water shortage caused by climate change.
C.The threat from illegal farming and deforestation.
D.The changeable farming method.
34.What is the writer's attitude to the application of CRISPR to develop a new type of cacao plant
A.Objective. B.Unconcerned.
C.Supportive. D.Negative.
35.Where does the passage probably come from
A.A poster. B.A leaflet.
C.An advertisement. D.A magazine.

I woke up earlier than my brother as every other day of the week. I jumped out of the bed, got dressed, brushed my teeth, and had breakfast. Saying goodbye to my mother, I got in the car no later than 7:05.I got to school on time, while my brother came out of the house late as he used to.
It was a Thursday. I was walking to the chemistry room when my phone in my left pocket vibrated(震动). I took it out and looked at the shiny screen. As soon as I saw my father's name on the screen I realized something was wrong.
He would not call me in the middle of a school day just to talk. He would want me to focus in school and do well. I answered the phone, and my father sounded worried. He told me to find my brother as soon as possible, walk with him to the school picking up zone and get in the car with my brother. Our driver would take us back home where my father was.
When I was in the car with my brother, my dad called the driver and told him to take us to the hospital. We were going to meet him and my mum there. As soon as my brother and I found out the change in plans, we looked at each other in the eyes. I immediately noticed the fear in my brother's eyes.
To be honest, I was really scared too, probably more than he was. But I did not say anything. We arrived at the hospital. I saw my dad waiting for us at the entrance. He was smoking. Seeing my dad smoking made me more worried. I had never seen him smoke before. He hated it. As soon as he recognized the white car, he threw the cigarette away. I looked at my brother; he was looking out of the other window. I did not tell him what I just saw. I did not want him to worry.

A jellyfish is a soft creature that swims slowly through water. They don't have bones, brains, eyes, ears, and hearts like true fish. However, jellyfish do well without these body parts. They live in every ocean in the world. There are hundreds of kinds of jellyfish. The number of jellyfish keeps increasing.
Jellyfish also need oxygen to live. Their skin is so thin that oxygen can pass through it and enter their bodies. If you ever see a jellyfish, look at it carefully. You can even see its stomach through the skin.
All animals must protect themselves against danger. And when a jellyfish touches an animal or person, it gives off poison. If you go swimming in the ocean, watch out for jellyfish, get out of the water if you see them. If you see a jellyfish on the sand, don't pick it up.
Sometimes, hundreds of jellyfish appear at once. These large groups are called “swarms” or “blooms”. Recently a “swarm” of jellyfish covered one end of the Gulf of Mexico.
Why are there more jellyfish now than in the past There are two possible reasons.First, adult fish and jellyfish eat much of the same food. In some places, too many adult fish have been caught by humans. This leaves more food for jellyfish. Second, farmers use fertilizer on their fields. When it rains, some fertilizer gets washed into rivers. It flows into the oceans. There, more plants grow and the oxygen in the water is reduced in the water. Jellyfish can live on less oxygen than fish.
