A new study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research reveals a surprising finding. The common practice of building seaside dams to prevent flooding may actually lead to more intense seaside flood events. Those massive projects are becoming increasingly popular globally. This is in part to prevent the effects of intensifying storms, seawater attack, and sea level rise due to climate change. However, the study challenges the assumption that all of the seaside dams are effective flood prevention measures.
By analyzing the data from Charleston Harbor in South Carolina, researchers found that seaside dams don’t necessarily reduce flooding. Dams can either increase or decrease flood risks, depending on factors like the length of time of a surge event and the shape of the basin. Lead author Steven Dykstra noted that the shape of the basin can cause storm surges to grow rather than decrease as one might expect when moving inland.
After using Charleston Harbor as a case study, researchers employed computer modeling to assess the flood response at 23 other sites, both dammed and natural. The models confirmed that the basin shape and its shortening by a dam are crucial in determining how storm surges move inland. In dammed environments, waves can accumulate and grow under the right length of time.
Steven Dykstra emphasized the concern that people might not realize they were in a seaside influenced zone. Sea level rise is making those far inland aware of their weakness to seaside effects, often through massive floods. Other contributors to the study included Enrica Viparelli, Alexander Yankovsky, Raymond Torres from the University of South Carolina, and Stefan Talke from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo.
1.How did people use to view the seaside dam
A.It decreased the frequency of storms. B.It protected seaside areas from threats.
C.It slowed down the rise in sea level. D.It prevented the river-ocean interaction.
2.Why do waves increase where there are seaside dams
A.Seaside dams extend the lasting time of waves
B.Seaside dams stop rivers from reaching the sea.
C.Seaside dams change the directions of waves.
D.Seaside dams decrease the length of a basin.
3.What was Steven Dykstra worried about
A.Seaside floods weren’t taken seriously by people.
B.The impact of floods was widespread.
C.Dams contributed to the occurrence of flooding.
D.Floods by the sea were difficult to prevent.
4.What’s the best title for the text
A.Seaside Dams Are Less Useful at Seaside Areas
B.Seaside Surges Impact More than Seaside
C.Seaside Dams Can Worsen Flood
D.The Latest Model Arises New Concerns
B
It was supposed to be an exciting adventure with my best friend Josh. We were hiking when the disaster struck. A boulder (巨石) suddenly shifted and crushed my leg beneath it. Extreme pain shot through my body. “Josh! Help!” I screamed, my voice trembling with panic.
Josh reacted instantly. But no matter what he tried, the boulder didn’t show the slightest movement. “Hold on! We’ll get help!” He said, grabbing his phone. He called emergency services and told the operator where we were. But we were kilometers from the nearest road, too far for rescue team to reach soon.
The hours passed slowly. The boulder hadn’t just crushed me, but it had knocked over almost all the water we carried. As the sun went down, the temperature dropped to near freezing. I trembled uncontrollably and sank into despair, but Josh kept encouraging me firmly. “Don’t lose hope!” He said, “We’ll get through this!” He gathered all the clothing he’d brought and piled them onto me. Then he collected wood and built a small fire, keeping it burning while we waited under the black, starless sky. Just when I thought we might not survive the night, the glow of rescuers’ headlamps appeared on the distant hillside.
The rescuers came on foot, driving to the closest spot they could find and then hiking in. Burdened by enormous packs and heavy tools, they moved through the darkness — every step a risk. Seeing the rescuers face to face allowed me to relax. After I’d been trapped for about five hours, they managed to pull my leg out from under the boulder.
But they delivered discouraging news: it was too dangerous to take me off the mountain in the dark. We must wait for the helicopter. Soon, I heard the distant sound of a helicopter. But despair returned when it flew away without stopping. Watching it disappear behind the hills, I feared my last hope was gone.
However, the rescue team never gave up, working tirelessly. They kept trying until finding a Navy helicopter crew brave enough to attempt our dangerous night-time rescue. The helicopter rushed me to the hospital, where doctors saved my life after multiple surgeries.
During my recovery, I had plenty of time to reflect. I was deeply grateful to everyone who not only gave me a second chance at life but also inspired me a lot. Their perseverance lighted my way through challenges. Three months after the accident. I found myself standing on the hiking trail once again, which was extremely tough for me. At one point, I wanted to stop. But I didn’t. I took another step. Then another. I would go slow, but I would keep going.
5.What did Josh do after the disaster had struck
A.He continuously tried to move the boulder.
B.He left to find the nearest road for help.
C.He built a shelter to keep the author warm.
D.He gave first aid to the author’s injured leg.
6.What difficulty did the author experience while waiting for rescue
A.Losing consciousness due to extreme pain and blood loss.
B.Losing all drinking water supplies for the entire night.
C.Suffering from extreme cold as the temperature dropped.
D.Being unable to contact emergency services directly.
7.During the rescue operation, the rescuers ______.
A.reached the accident site at once
B.had to hike with heavy equipment
C.felt relaxed after relieving the author’s leg
D.came along with a medical team
8.What can we infer from the helicopter’s first attempt
A.The situation was too dangerous for the night-time rescue.
B.The helicopter couldn’t land safely due to the bad weather.
C.The author’s injuries were too severe to be moved by air.

【答案】1.B 2.D 3.A 4.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明,用于防洪的沿海大坝可能因海湾形状和涨潮时间等因素,导致洪水更加严重,这挑战了沿海大坝作为有效防洪措施的传统认知。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段“The common practice of building seaside dams to prevent flooding may actually lead to more intense seaside flood events.(建造海滨水坝以防止洪水的常见做法实际上可能导致更严重的海滨洪水事件)”可知,人们过去认为沿海大坝可以保护沿海地区免受威胁。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段“By analyzing the data from Charleston Harbor in South Carolina, researchers found that seaside dams don’t necessarily reduce flooding. Dams can either increase or decrease flood risks, depending on factors like the length of time of a surge event and the shape of the basin. Lead author Steven Dykstra noted that the shape of the basin can cause storm surges to grow rather than decrease as one might expect when moving inland.(通过分析南卡罗来纳州查尔斯顿港的数据,研究人员发现,海边水坝不一定能减少洪水。大坝可以增加或减少洪水的风险,这取决于诸如浪涌事件的时间长短和盆地的形状等因素。该研究的主要作者史蒂文·戴克斯特拉指出,盆地的形状可能会导致风暴潮增加,而不是像人们预期的那样在向内陆移动时减少)”可知,沿海大坝改变了海湾的形状,导致风暴潮的波浪在特定时间下会聚集并变大。故选D。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Steven Dykstra emphasized the concern that people might not realize they were in a seaside influenced zone. Sea level rise is making those far inland aware of their weakness to seaside effects, often through massive floods.(戴克斯特拉强调,人们可能没有意识到自己身处受海边影响的地区。海平面的上升使那些遥远的内陆地区意识到他们对海边影响的弱点,通常是通过大规模的洪水)”可推知,他担心的是沿海的洪水没有提前引起人们足够的重视。故选A。
4.主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research reveals a surprising finding. The common practice of building seaside dams to prevent flooding may actually lead to more intense seaside flood events.(发表在《地球物理研究杂志》上的一项新研究揭示了一个令人惊讶的发现。建造海滨水坝以防止洪水的常见做法实际上可能导致更严重的海滨洪水事件)”可知,文章主要说明了一项新的研究表明,用于防洪的沿海大坝可能因海湾形状和涨潮时间等因素,导致洪水更加严重,这挑战了沿海大坝作为有效防洪措施的传统认知。由此可知,C选项“海滨水坝会加剧洪水”最符合文章标题。故选C。

【答案】10.G 11.A 12.F 13.B 14.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了非语言沟通(身体语言)的重要性,并从保持开放姿态、谨慎使用手势、善用面部表情、理解他人身体语言四个方面给出提升非语言沟通能力的方法。
10.根据上文“Good communication isn’t just about the words we say. Our body language, the non-verbal signals we send, is equally important. It can help us build trust, look confident, and connect better with others.(良好的沟通不仅仅是我们所说的话。我们的肢体语言,即我们发出的非语言信号,同样重要。它可以帮助我们建立信任,看起来自信,并更好地与他人联系)”可知上文提到了肢体语言很重要,可推理出此处是在引出关于肢体语言沟通的话题,与G项“Here are four simple ways to get better at non-verbal communication(这里有四个提高非语言沟通能力的简单方法)”相呼应,起到承上启下的作用,故选G项。
11.根据上文“Keep an open stance(姿态). Stand or sit straight with your shoulders loose and legs a bit apart.(保持开放的姿态。站直或坐直,肩膀放松,双腿稍微分开)”以及下文“Don’t cross your arms or legs, as it can make you seem defensive. Let your arms hang naturally to look friendly.(不要交叉双臂或双腿,因为这会让你看起来有防御性。让手臂自然下垂看起来更友好)”可知上下文说的是正确的做法,可推理出空白处表达的是正确的姿势的好处,与A项“This shows you’re confident(这表明你很自信)”表达的含义一致,故选A项。
12.根据上文“Use hand gestures carefully.(小心使用手势)”以及下文“Use clear hand movements, like opening your hands upward, to make important points stand out. Don’t fidget(坐立不安), like touching your face or clothes, as it shows you’re nervous. As you talk, use your hands to emphasize what you’re saying, or draw people’s attention to a certain area.(使用清晰的手部动作,比如向上张开双手,让重点突出。不要坐立不安,比如摸脸或衣服,因为这表明你很紧张。当你说话时,用你的手来强调你所说的话,或者把人们的注意力吸引到某个区域)”可知上文说的是要正确地使用手部动作,可推理出此处说的是手部动作会影响信息传达的效果,与F项“Hand movements can change how your message is received(手部动作可以改变你的信息被接收的方式)”表达的含义一致,故选F项。
13.根据下文“Your face can show a lot of feelings. A real smile makes you seem warm and easy to talk to. Be careful of small expressions on your face. Don’t raise your eyebrows too much, as it can make you seem angry or doubtful. Nodding your head a bit when others are talking to you shows that you’re listening.(你的脸可以表现出很多情感。一个真诚的微笑会让你看起来很温暖,很容易交谈。注意脸上的小表情。不要过度扬眉,因为这会让你看起来生气或怀疑。当别人和你说话时,稍微点头表明你在听)”可知下文说的是正确的面部表情会带来积极的效果,而不恰当的面部表情会让你看起来生气或怀疑,可推理出空白处说的是要正确地使用面部表情,与B项“Learn to use facial expressions well(学会很好地使用面部表情)”表达的含义一致,故选B项。
14.根据上文“Try to understand other people’s body language. Notice signs of stress, such as crossed arms or tapping feet. A relaxed body and open hands usually mean someone is calm.(试着理解别人的肢体语言。注意压力的迹象,比如交叉双臂或跺脚。放松的身体和张开的手通常意味着某人很平静)”以及下文“like shifting restlessly in their seat or checking the time.(比如在座位上不安地挪动或看时间)”可知上文提到了交叉双臂或跺脚,下文提到了在座位上不安地挪动或看时间,可推理出空白处说的是寻找别人不感兴趣的迹象,与D项“Look for signs that someone is not interested(寻找某人不感兴趣的迹象)”表达的含义一致,故选D项。

31 (face) with this issue, two language-loving foreign students decided to do something. Parker, a linguistics (语言学) student, studies Chinese dialects, while Hansen, fluent 32 multiple languages, has lived in Beijing for years. Together, they started a project which later 33 (become) a website called Phoemica, or Xiangyinyuan, 34 recordings of the dialects in danger of dying out are collected and displayed.
What you’re bound to notice on the Phonemica website is the 35 (present) of a large map which shows various dialects across China. In certain 36 (area), there are uploads of recordings of dialects which visitors to the site can listen to. Most of the recordings feature speakers 37 (tell) a story in their various dialects.
Unlike many similar websites focusing on text or professional research, Phoemica records ordinary people, helping create an oral history of Asia. The website’s detailed information about speakers, including ethnic background and education, makes it more engaging and 38 (access) than traditional language research platforms, aiming to preserve 39 unique appeal of each dialect.
【答案】
30.to preserve 31.Faced 32.in 33.became 34.where 35.presence 36.areas 37.telling 38.accessible 39.the
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍Phonemica网站,展示了两位外国学生如何通过现代技术手段保护中国丰富的方言文化。
30.考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,随着普通话在学校和公共场所越来越受欢迎,这些方言变得越来越难以保护。“主语+be+形容词+to do”是固定结构,在该结构中,动词不定式用主动形式表示被动意义。故填to preserve。
31.考查非谓语动词。句意:面对这个问题,两位热爱语言的外国学生决定做点什么。be faced with是固定短语,意为“面临,面对”,空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语,动词face与句子的主语two language-loving foreign students之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词作状语,句首单词首字母需大写。故填Faced。
32.考查介词。句意:帕克是一名语言学专业的学生,研究中国方言,而汉森精通多种语言,已经在北京生活多年。be fluent in是固定搭配,表示“在……方面流利;精通……”,这里说汉森精通多种语言。故填in。

34.考查定语从句。句意:他们一起启动了一个项目,这个项目后来变成了一个名为“乡音苑”的网站,在这个网站上,收集并展示了那些濒临消失的方言的录音。分析句子结构可知, 5 recordings of the dialects in danger of dying out are collected and displayed是一个非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a website,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。
35.考查名词。句意:你在“乡音苑”网站上一定会注意到有一张大地图,它展示了中国各地的各种方言。根据句意和空格前的is可知,空格处应该用名词presence作表语,the presence of表示“……的存在”,这里指网站上有一张大地图的存在。故填presence。
36.考查名词复数。句意:在某些地区,有上传的方言录音,网站的访问者可以收听。area是可数名词,此处应该用复数形式表示泛指。故填areas。
37.考查非谓语动词。句意:大多数录音以说方言的人讲故事为特色。空格处应该用非谓语动词作定语,修饰空格前的名词speakers,动词tell与speakers之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词telling作定语。故填telling。
38.考查形容词。句意:该网站提供了使用者的详细信息,包括种族背景和教育程度,使其比传统的语言研究平台更具吸引力和可访问性,旨在保留每种方言的独特吸引力。根据空格前的makes it more engaging and可知,空格处应该用形容词accessible与形容词engaging并列作补足语。故填accessible。
39.考查冠词。句意:该网站提供了使用者的详细信息,包括种族背景和教育程度,使其比传统的语言研究平台更具吸引力和可访问性,旨在保留每种方言的独特吸引力。appeal在这里表示“魅力”,是特指每种方言的独特魅力,所以用定冠词the。故填the。
