Leah Brown aged 36 fell several hundred feet from Oregon’s highest mountain right before the eyes of a group of volunteer rescue workers who rushed to her aid and helped save her life.
The woman was coming down a popular path (小路) on Mt. Hood, about 70 miles east of Portland, on Saturday morning, according to the local police. Mt. Hood is the highest in Oregon, standing at around11.240 feet.
The fall was seen by members of Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), a volunteer organization focused on helping people in mountainous areas. The group called 911 and rushed to the woman, providing medical care. They helped keep the woman warm for seven hours as the police worked to get her off the mountain safely. Finally, the woman was evacuated (转移) to a parking lot at 9:30 pm and taken to a hospital.
The climber, Leah Brown, said she didn’t know what caused her fall. “I can only guess it was either an ice tool or a crampon (冰爪) that didn’t land and stick like it should have, so I became detached from the mountain,” Brown said. “The thing I’d like to most stress is my appreciation for the members of PMR who evacuated me and took good care of me the whole time,” Brown added. “They saved my life. ”
In a statement after the rescue, PMR warned of the dangerous winter conditions at the mountain. “The short days and lower temperatures mean that the snow tends to be very hard and icy, and the conditions tend to be much steeper. Climbing the mountain in icy conditions is much more difficult,” the group said.
4. What happened to Brown on Saturday morning
A. She lost her way in a forest. B. She hurt her eye unexpectedly.
C. She failed to call her family. D. She fell down on a downhill path.

Our two-year investigation into caged (关在笼中) tigers in America sent us through 32 US states—with some truly shocking experiences. But as the deadline neared, I still needed a powerful and hopeful image.
When we began our reporting in 2017—Sharon, writing; me taking photos; and our son, NickRuggia, filming—more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild. The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, but without strict government oversight, no one knew for sure.
Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机). Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.
While we documented the unpleasant part of this industry, we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have. With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.
There I met Clay, Daniel, and Enzo, three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma. These nearly grown cats raced beside our car, which I’d seen only in the wild. It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off. The third rested beside them on the ground. I crossed the road to take a picture of them. Then quietly, I came up close, trying not to disturb (打扰) them. I had the shot.
8. Why did the author start her reporting
A. To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B. To explore the amazing land in the country.
C. To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D. To share the happy moment during the trip.
9. What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text
A. Forest fires. B. Climate change. C. Roadside zoos. D. Water pollution.
10. What can we learn about these young tigers from paragraph 3
A. They prefer to stay indoors. B. They are badly treated.
C. They get used to the changes. D. They are traded legally.
11. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary
A. To praise her family for their effort. B. To explain what the animals suffered.
C. To introduce a special kind of tigers. D. To show some tigers lead an easy life.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者对美国笼中的老虎进行了为期两年的调查,走访了美国32个州,发现在美国,生活在笼子里的老虎可能比野外的老虎要多。

Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.(允许游客给小老虎拍照的路边动物园是造成美国老虎危机的主要原因。关在笼子里的老虎经常被非法野生动物交易。幼虎一出生就与母亲分开,喂养不良,被数百人抚摸。当它们在大约12周大的时候长得太大、太危险而不能被爱抚时,幼虎就会被展出,或者干脆消失)”可推断,作者开始她的报道之旅是为了揭露圈养老虎的真实情况。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机).(允许游客给小老虎拍照的路边动物园是造成美国老虎危机的主要原因)”可知,路边圈养动物是引发美国老虎生存危机的主因。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.(幼虎一出生就与母亲分开,喂养不良,被数百人抚摸。当它们在大约12周大的时候长得太大、太危险而不能被爱抚时,幼虎就会被展出,或者干脆消失)”可知,老虎幼崽备受虐待。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.(在离最后期限还有两周的时候,我去了丹佛附近的野生动物保护区,在那里,被照顾得很好的猫科动物在它们的栖息地自由地散步)”可推断,作者在此提及丹佛附近的这处野生动物保护区是为了说明这些老虎生活很舒适。故选D。

People tend to use trees for papermaking. But maybe electronics (电子) engineers are missing out on something here. “It turns out that two major building blocks of wood have a lot of electrical qualities,” says Magnus Berggren, a professor at Link ping University.
His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity.
Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in.
Batteries cause electrons to flow from one place to another, which can produce electricity. In a typical battery, one material must give electrons. The other must accept them. Lignin can do both. A weak acid (酸) encourages lignin to produce electrons. “With a metal wire (金属线) to guide those electrons, you’ll have electricity,” says Berggren.
Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.
This natural material can serve as a wire-like path for electrons. To make it work well, Berggren lines them with another chemical known as PEDOT, which isn’t from a tree. But when PEDOT is added to cellulose, they can conduct electricity like a wire. “With a weak acid, now you have a battery,” Berggren says. “And two of its three materials come from the forest.”
Berggren can imagine one day having mobile phone batteries made largely from forest products. Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.
12. What is cellulose used to do in the study
A. Act as a weak acid. B. Collect rainwater.
C. Produce electricity. D. Make quality paper.
13. Which best describes the new battery
A. Well-received. B. Eco-friendly. C. Harmful. D. Heavy.
14 What can we expect of tree-based electronics
A. They may change farming practices. B. They might save a lot of wood.
C. They would serve the elderly. D. They could light the rooms.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Green Way to Make and Store Energy B. An Attempt to Raise Power Production
C. Practical Suggestions on Planting Trees D. Recent Advances in Mobile Phones
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了利用森林产品制作电子产品的科技新闻,介绍了研究人员利用木材中的纤维素和木质素,开发出新的基于木质素的电池,并探讨了这种电池的原理和未来应用前景。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity. (第一种材料是纤维素,它可以制造能量。第二种材料木质素可以像电池一样储存能量。研究小组发现,当被挤压时,纤维素可以发电。)”可知,纤维素可以用来发电。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.( Berggren的团队利用这种品质创造了新的木质素基电池。典型的电池使用金属线作为引导电子流入或流出设备的路径。但既然Berggren想要用森林做电池,他就寻找一种自然的方式。他再一次转向纤维素。)”可推断出,Berggren的团队所创造的新的电池是环保的。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.(基于树木的电子设备可能在照明方面也很有用。)”可知,利用木质纤维素产生的电能可用于照明。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity. (他的团队一直致力于用森林制造电子元件。现在,他们专注于两种材料的树木。第一种材料是纤维素,它可以制造能量。第二种材料木质素可以像电池一样储存能量。研究小组发现,当被挤压时,纤维素可以发电。)”以及第三段“Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in. (一些设备必须储存电能,以备不时之需。电池可以做到这一点。但是电池并不是很环保。他们有有害物质。这就是木质素的用武之地。)”再结合全文内容可知,文章要讲述了利用森林产品制作电子产品,尤其是利用木质素制作电池,这种电池既环保又可持续,因此A选项“A Green Way to Make and Store Energy(一种制造和储存能源的绿色方式)”最符合文章主旨,是最佳标题。故选A。

47. 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。
Yesterday I was in a bad mood because of losing my job. I tried to find something else to do to make myself feel better. I went shopping for a pair of trainers to replace the old pair I have been wearing for too long. I would have replaced them months ago but I am one of those women who hate shopping. I hate the crowds and the heat in the shops, but mostly I hate the waiting line.
I was happy as I found my trainers very quickly, but my happiness soon disappeared when I found myself in a very long line for the payment.
This line was long and snaking around a corner. I do hate waiting but I find the best way to pass the time is to talk to the person behind me.
So I turned around and told the woman behind me that the line was looking very long and joked that I hoped we could all hang on.
She laughed and agreed. I caught an English accent(口音)as she spoke, so being a person from Liverpool in England myself, I immediately asked her where she was from.
She rewarded me with a sharp look and said, “England. ”
Immediately I realized that I had accidentally offended(冒犯)her—she was black and thought I was referring to her colour. I told her I was from Liverpool and had noticed her English accent.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
She laughed then and continued chatting.

The line seemed to disappear slowly as we exchanged some information about our life.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
She laughed then and continued chatting. The woman said she was a high school teacher in Liverpool. She had a lot of naughty students in the school, and she had been under great pressure in her life recently as well, so she had decided to take these days off to escape from the school for a little while by visiting her friend here. I was able to understand her because we were under the same roof. I poured out all my pain in life, too.
The line seemed to disappear slowly as we exchanged some information about our life. In chatting, time is not as long as I first imagined, and waiting is not so boring. Soon it was our turn to pay the bill and say goodbye. I carried my trainers out of the shop happily. Never did I have a sense of relief like this time. Not because of getting my trainers, but because of the relaxation and freedom to chat with a stranger who I would never meet again. Talking to strangers can help bring us back down to earth. Why not seize the chance to be pleasantly surprised

Leah Brown aged 36 fell several hundred feet from Oregon’s highest mountain right before the eyes of a group of volunteer rescue workers who rushed to her aid and helped save her life.
The woman was coming down a popular path (小路) on Mt. Hood, about 70 miles east of Portland, on Saturday morning, according to the local police. Mt. Hood is the highest in Oregon, standing at around11.240 feet.
The fall was seen by members of Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), a volunteer organization focused on helping people in mountainous areas. The group called 911 and rushed to the woman, providing medical care. They helped keep the woman warm for seven hours as the police worked to get her off the mountain safely. Finally, the woman was evacuated (转移) to a parking lot at 9:30 pm and taken to a hospital.
The climber Leah Brown, said she didn’t know what caused her fall. “I can only guess it was either an ice tool or a crampon (冰爪) that didn’t land and stick like it should have, so I became detached from the mountain,” Brown said. “The thing I’d like to most stress is my appreciation for the members of PMR who evacuated me and took good care of me the whole time,” Brown added. “They saved my life. ”
In a statement after the rescue, PMR warned of the dangerous winter conditions at the mountain. “The short days and lower temperatures mean that the snow tends to be very hard and icy, and the conditions tend to be much steeper. Climbing the mountain in icy conditions is much more difficult,” the group said.
4. What happened to Brown on Saturday morning
A She lost her way in a forest. B. She hurt her eye unexpectedly.

Our two-year investigation into caged (关在笼中) tigers in America sent us through 32 US states—with some truly shocking experiences. But as the deadline neared, I still needed a powerful and hopeful image.
When we began our reporting in 2017—Sharon, writing; me taking photos; and our son, NickRuggia, filming—more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild. The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, but without strict government oversight, no one knew for sure.
Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机). Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.
While we documented the unpleasant part of this industry, we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have. With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.
There I met Clay, Daniel, and Enzo, three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma. These nearly grown cats raced beside our car, which I’d seen only in the wild. It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off. The third rested beside them on the ground. I crossed the road to take a picture of them. Then quietly, I came up close, trying not to disturb (打扰) them. I had the shot.
8. Why did the author start her reporting
A. To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B. To explore the amazing land in the country.
C. To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D. To share the happy moment during the trip.
9. What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text
A. Forest fires. B. Climate change. C. Roadside zoos. D. Water pollution.
10. What can we learn about these young tigers from paragraph 3
A. They prefer to stay indoors. B. They are badly treated.
C. They get used to the changes. D. They are traded legally.
11. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary
A. To praise her family for their effort. B. To explain what the animals suffered.
C. To introduce a special kind of tigers. D. To show some tigers lead an easy life.
D
People tend to use trees for papermaking. But maybe electronics (电子) engineers are missing out on something here. “It turns out that two major building blocks of wood have a lot of electrical qualities,” says Magnus Berggren, a professor at Link ping University.
His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity.
Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in.
Batteries cause electrons to flow from one place to another, which can produce electricity. In a typical battery, one material must give electrons. The other must accept them. Lignin can do both. A weak acid (酸) encourages lignin to produce electrons. “With a metal wire (金属线) to guide those electrons, you’ll have electricity,” says Berggren.
Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.
This natural material can serve as a wire-like path for electrons. To make it work well, Berggren lines them with another chemical known as PEDOT, which isn’t from a tree. But when PEDOT is added to cellulose, they can conduct electricity like a wire. “With a weak acid, now you have a battery,” Berggren says. “And two of its three materials come from the forest.”
Berggren can imagine one day having mobile phone batteries made largely from forest products. Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.
12. What is cellulose used to do in the study
A. Act as a weak acid. B. Collect rainwater.
C. Produce electricity. D. Make quality paper.
13. Which best describes the new battery
A. Well-received. B. Eco-friendly. C. Harmful. D. Heavy.
14. What can we expect of tree-based electronics
A. They may change farming practices. B. They might save a lot of wood.
C. They would serve the elderly. D. They could light the rooms.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Green Way to Make and Store Energy B. An Attempt to Raise Power Production
C. Practical Suggestions on Planting Trees D. Recent Advances in Mobile Phones

47. 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。
Yesterday I was in a bad mood because of losing my job. I tried to find something else to do to make myself feel better. I went shopping for a pair of trainers to replace the old pair I have been wearing for too long. I would have replaced them months ago but I am one of those women who hate shopping. I hate the crowds and the heat in the shops, but mostly I hate the waiting line.
I was happy as I found my trainers very quickly, but my happiness soon disappeared when I found myself in a very long line for the payment.
This line was long and snaking around a corner. I do hate waiting but I find the best way to pass the time is to talk to the person behind me.
So I turned around and told the woman behind me that the line was looking very long and joked that I hoped we could all hang on.
She laughed and agreed. I caught an English accent(口音)as she spoke, so being a person from Liverpool in England myself, I immediately asked her where she was from.
She rewarded me with a sharp look and said, “England. ”
Immediately I realized that I had accidentally offended(冒犯)her—she was black and thought I was referring to her colour. I told her I was from Liverpool and had noticed her English accent.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
She laughed then and continued chatting.
