一、阅读选择
A
It was October 2005, and the catastrophic earthquake killing some 79,000 people in Pakistan had reduced the valley to mud and ruins.
Yasmeen Lari, a 65-year-old architect, was there to help lead the reconstruction of settlements, but she had never done disaster work before. Lari was known for designing smooth towers of glass and concrete. But here, she’d be drawing plans for earthquake-resistant homes using stone and timber debris(木材碎片). With each passing day, she felt deeply right to do disaster-relief work. So she made it her new mission, spending the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers from Pakistan and abroad.
Inspired by local buildings made with sustainable materials such as timber debris, bamboo and mud, Lari’s shelters can better withstand disasters. Lari says this local, cost-effective and zero-carbon approach is creating an ecosystem. Anyone can learn by watching DIY videos on Lari’s Zero Carbon Channel on YouTube.
The design won a UN World Habitat Prize in 2018.“We need to believe in people’s capacity to bring about change. I treat displaced people as partners, not victims. They know what to do,” says Lari.
Over the decades, Yasmeen Lari has won many awards as architect and environmentalist. While it may seem like an unlikely path for a girl who was born into a well-to-do family in1941, she had an unconventional upbringing. At home, her father would talk about the desperate need for housing. Listening to her father talk about the housing crisis and need for architects made an impression on Lari. On a family visit to London when she was 15, she applied to architecture school at Oxford Brookes University. She laughs as she recalls her bravery.
At age 83, Yasmeen Lari is still full of ideas about zero-carbon designs, skills building and self-sustaining villages. “Architects can no longer work for just the one percent,” she says. “That doesn’t allow them to serve humanity as much as they could.”

2.How did Lari make her design practical and environmental
A.By creating an ecosystem. B.By strengthening local buildings.

B.Her father encouraged her to path unusual.
C.Her father talked about the demand for architects.
D.Her rich family allowed her to pursue the most of dream.
4.Which of the following best describes Yasmeen Lari
A.Sensitive and brave. B.Determined and cooperative.
C.Honest and generous. D.Sympathetic and eco-responsible.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.C 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了巴基斯坦女性建筑师Yasmeen Lari努力改进村庄的房屋设计以更好地抵御自然灾害,突显其体恤村民和倡导环保的精神。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中“It was October 2005, and the catastrophic earthquake killing some 79,000 people in Pakistan had reduced the valley to mud and ruins.(那是2005年10月,巴基斯坦发生了灾难性的地震,造成约7.9万人死亡,山谷变成了泥泞和废墟。)”以及第二段中“But here, she’d be drawing plans for earthquake-resistant homes using stone and timber debris(木材碎片). With each passing day, she felt deeply right to do disaster-relief work. So she made it her new mission, spending the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers from Pakistan and abroad.( 但在这里,她会用石头和木屑来设计抗震房屋。每过一天,她都深深感到做救灾工作是正确的。因此,她把它作为自己的新任务,在接下来的四个月里,她与来自巴基斯坦和国外的志愿者建筑师和工程师一起工作。)”可知,在巴基斯坦发生了灾难性的地震之后,Lari会用石头和木屑来设计抗震房屋,她把它作为自己的新任务,在接下来的四个月里,她与来自巴基斯坦和国外的志愿者建筑师和工程师一起工作,由此可知,Lai开始了一段全新的志愿者工作经历。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Inspired by local buildings made with sustainable materials such as timber debris, bamboo and mud, Lari’s shelters can better withstand disasters. (受到当地用木材碎片、竹子和泥土等可持续材料建造的建筑的启发,拉里的避难所可以更好地抵御灾害。)”可知,Lari设计的房屋就地取材,低成本、零碳,实用环保即这些材料是可持续的材料。故选C。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段中“Listening to her father talk about the housing crisis and need for architects made an impression on Lari. On a family visit to London when she was 15, she applied to architecture school at Oxford Brookes University. (听父亲谈论住房危机和对建筑师的需求给拉里留下了深刻的印象。15岁时随家人去伦敦旅游,她申请了牛津布鲁克斯大学(Oxford brooks University)的建筑学院。)”可知,Lari申请建筑学院的原因是因为听父亲谈论住房危机和对建筑师的需求给其留下了深刻的印象。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“At age 83, Yasmeen Lari is still full of ideas about zero-carbon designs, skills building and self-sustaining villages.( 83岁高龄的Yasmeen Lari仍然对零碳设计、技能培养和自给自足的村庄充满了想法。)”以及““Architects can no longer work for just the one percent,” she says. “That doesn’t allow them to serve humanity as much as they could.”(“建筑师不能再只为那1%的人工作了,”她说。“这让他们无法尽其所能为人类服务。”)”可知,Yasmeen Lari仍然对零碳设计、技能培养和自给自足的村庄充满了想法以及她认为建筑师应该尽全力为所有人服务,故体现出她是富有同情心和环保意识的。故选D。
B
Electric bicycles have established themselves as an important mode of transportation worldwide, and their fame continues to improve as the electric vehicle revolution (革命) is slowly spreading over the world. Embracing the advantages of electric bikes not only benefits the economy but also improve the general well-being of the population.
Germany, in particular, has witnessed a remarkable upswing in the e-bike industry, displaying no signs of slowing down despite initial hesitations earlier this year. In May, favorable weather made it more convenient to ride e-bikes, which contributed to the increase of e-bike sales. By the end of May this year, Germany had produced over one million electric bikes, marking a significant five-percent growth compared to the same period last year. This growth is particularly impressive considering the challenging economic climate the country has faced.
Burkhard Stock, the Managing Director of the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV), discussed this unbelievable turn of events in a report published by German e-bike publication E-Bike News. He mentioned that they had anticipated a slowdown in the market throughout the first half of the year. However, it turned out that a positive change in the industry was seen in May.
ZIV, a famous organization in the German and international bicycle industries, plays a key role as a governing body and major stakeholder (股东) in the European e-bike field. About 90 percent of all electric bikes produced by German companies are made by ZIV member companies. Their presence ensures the industry’s steady growth and development.
In addition to the market within the country, German-made electric bicycles have gone to other parts of the world. In the first quarter of this year, an astonishing 190, 000 electric bikes were sold abroad, meaning a significant 28-percent increase compared to the previous year. A majority of these electric bikes were transported to European Union and European Free Trade Association member countries. It is expected that the German e-bike market will produce a total of two million electric bicycles by the end of this year.
5.What resulted in a better e-bike market in May
A.Effective marketing strategies. B.Favorable turn of economic climate.
C.Improved environmental awareness. D.Weather conditions suitable for cycling.
6.What does the underlined word “anticipated” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Prevented. B.Guaranteed. C.Encountered. D.Expected.
7.What do the numbers of German-made e-bikes in the last paragraph show
A.A greater demand for electricity. B.A complete hold of the global market.
C.A strong export performance of e-bikes. D.A higher political rank in the United Nations.
8.Which part does this text probable appear on the website

【答案】5.D 6.D 7.C 8.B
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了德国电动自行车的销量显著增长。
5.细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“In May, favorable weather made it more convenient to ride e-bikes, which contributed to the increase of e-bike sales.”(5月份,有利的天气使得骑电动自行车更加方便,这也促进了电动自行车销量的增长。)可知,适宜骑行的天气条件促使电动自行车销量增长。故选D项。
6.词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Burkhard Stock, the Managing Director of the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV), discussed this unbelievable turn of events in a report published by German e-bike publication E-Bike News.”(Zweirad-Industrie-Verband董事总经理Burkhard Stock在德国电动自行车出版物《e-bike News》发表的一份报告中讨论了这一令人难以置信的转折。)及第二句后半部分“a slowdown in the market throughout the first half of the year”(整个上半年的市场放缓。)及最后一句“However, it turned out that a positive change in the industry was seen in May.”(然而,事实证明,5月份该行业出现了积极的变化。)可知,他们之前认为上半年市场销量会下降,但结果却出人意料。可推知anticipated意为“预计,预想”。故选D项。
7.细节理解题。根据最后一段前两句“In addition to the market within the country, German-made electric bicycles have gone to other parts of the world. In the first quarter of this year, an astonishing 190, 000 electric bikes were sold abroad, meaning a significant 28-percent increase compared to the previous year.”(除了国内市场,德国制造的电动自行车还销往世界各地。今年第一季度,电动自行车在国外的销量达到了惊人的19万辆,与去年相比增长了28%。)可知,这些数字显示了电动自行车强劲的出口业绩。故选C项。
8.推理判断题。通读全文,并根据第二段前两句“Germany, in particular, has witnessed a remarkable upswing in the e-bike industry, displaying no signs of slowing down despite initial hesitations earlier this year. In May, favorable weather made it more convenient to ride e-bikes, which contributed to the increase of e-bike sales.”(尤其是德国,该国的电动自行车行业出现了显著的增长,尽管今年早些时候出现了最初的犹豫,但没有显示出放缓的迹象。5月份,有利的天气使得骑电动自行车更加方便,这也促进了电动自行车销量的增长。)可知,文章讲述了德国电动自行车的销量显著增长。这是与制造业相关的话题,由此可知,本文出自网站的“Industry”部分。故选B项。

拓展突破练
1. (2023年浙江卷.阅读理解B篇) My dad commented on how silly it was for me ___________(carry) jars everywhere.
【答案】to carry
【详解】考查it用法。句意:我的爸爸评价我说,把这些罐子搬得到处都是多傻啊。根据结构it is/was +adj. +to do, 在句中commented on为谓语动词,how引导的宾语从句为一句感叹句,将其变回陈述句,应该说it was silly for me to carry jars everywhere。所以填to carry。
2. (2023年浙江卷.阅读理解C篇)As Kristian Hammond, professor of electrical engineering and computer science at Northwestern University, put ____________: “There’s never a stage at which the system knows what it’s talking about.”
【答案】it
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意:正如Kristian Hammond,西北大学的电气工程和计算机科学专业的教授所说,从没有一个阶段这个系统知道它在谈论什么。这里Put it是固定搭配,表示“说”, 即as sb. put it=as sb. said, 所以填it。

6. (2023年新课标全国II.七选五)I do remember, though, what it was like ___________(be) a complete beginner.

【详解】考查it的固定结构。句意:然而,我确实记得做一名完全的新手是怎样的。remember后面的宾语从句由what引导,表达“…怎么样?”应该用what is it like to do , 因为此处是宾语从句,应该用陈述语气,即what it is like to do。所以填to be。

一、阅读选择
A
It was October 2005, and the catastrophic earthquake killing some 79,000 people in Pakistan had reduced the valley to mud and ruins.
Yasmeen Lari, a 65-year-old architect, was there to help lead the reconstruction of settlements, but she had never done disaster work before. Lari was known for designing smooth towers of glass and concrete. But here, she’d be drawing plans for earthquake-resistant homes using stone and timber debris(木材碎片). With each passing day, she felt deeply right to do disaster-relief work. So she made it her new mission, spending the next four months working with volunteer architects and engineers from Pakistan and abroad.
Inspired by local buildings made with sustainable materials such as timber debris, bamboo and mud, Lari’s shelters can better withstand disasters. Lari says this local, cost-effective and zero-carbon approach is creating an ecosystem. Anyone can learn by watching DIY videos on Lari’s Zero Carbon Channel on YouTube.
The design won a UN World Habitat Prize in 2018.“We need to believe in people’s capacity to bring about change. I treat displaced people as partners, not victims. They know what to do,” says Lari.
Over the decades, Yasmeen Lari has won many awards as architect and environmentalist. While it may seem like an unlikely path for a girl who was born into a well-to-do family in1941, she had an unconventional upbringing. At home, her father would talk about the desperate need for housing. Listening to her father talk about the housing crisis and need for architects made an impression on Lari. On a family visit to London when she was 15, she applied to architecture school at Oxford Brookes University. She laughs as she recalls her bravery.
At age 83, Yasmeen Lari is still full of ideas about zero-carbon designs, skills building and self-sustaining villages. “Architects can no longer work for just the one percent,” she says. “That doesn’t allow them to serve humanity as much as they could.”

Electric bicycles have established themselves as an important mode of transportation worldwide, and their fame continues to improve as the electric vehicle revolution (革命) is slowly spreading over the world. Embracing the advantages of electric bikes not only benefits the economy but also improve the general well-being of the population.
Germany, in particular, has witnessed a remarkable upswing in the e-bike industry, displaying no signs of slowing down despite initial hesitations earlier this year. In May, favorable weather made it more convenient to ride e-bikes, which contributed to the increase of e-bike sales. By the end of May this year, Germany had produced over one million electric bikes, marking a significant five-percent growth compared to the same period last year. This growth is particularly impressive considering the challenging economic climate the country has faced.
Burkhard Stock, the Managing Director of the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV), discussed this unbelievable turn of events in a report published by German e-bike publication E-Bike News. He mentioned that they had anticipated a slowdown in the market throughout the first half of the year. However, it turned out that a positive change in the industry was seen in May.
ZIV, a famous organization in the German and international bicycle industries, plays a key role as a governing body and major stakeholder (股东) in the European e-bike field. About 90 percent of all electric bikes produced by German companies are made by ZIV member companies. Their presence ensures the industry’s steady growth and development.
In addition to the market within the country, German-made electric bicycles have gone to other parts of the world. In the first quarter of this year, an astonishing 190, 000 electric bikes were sold abroad, meaning a significant 28-percent increase compared to the previous year. A majority of these electric bikes were transported to European Union and European Free Trade Association member countries. It is expected that the German e-bike market will produce a total of two million electric bicycles by the end of this year.
