The
Biggest
Stadiums
in
the
World
People
have
been
pouring
into
stadiums
since
the
days
of
ancient
Greece.
In
around
8
A.Q.,
the
Romans
built
the
Colosseum,
which
remains
the
world's
best
known
stadium
are
continues
to
inform
contemporary
design.
Rome’s
Colosseum
was
157
feet
tall
and
had
80
entrances,
seating
50,000
people.
However,
that
was
small
fry
compared
with
the
city’s
Circus
Maximus,
which
accommodated
around
250,000
people.
These
days,
safety
regulations-not
to
mention
the
modern
sports
fan’s
desire
for
a
good
view
and
a
comfortable
seat-tend
to
keep
stadium
capacities(容量)slightly
lower.
Even
soccer
fans
tend
to
have
a
seat
each;
gone
are
the
days
of
thousands
standing
to
watch
the
match.
For
the
biggest
stadiums
in
the
world,
we
have
used
data
supplied
by
the
World
Atlas
list
so
far,
which
ranks
them
by
their
stated
permanent
capacity,
as
well
as
updated
information
from
official
stadium
websites.
All
these
stadiums
are
still
functional,
still
open
and
still

When
almost
everyone
has
a
mobile
phone,
why
are
more
than
half
of
Australian
homes
still
paying
for
a
landline
(座机)
These
days
you'd
be
hard
pressed
to
find
anyone
in
Australia
over
the
age
of
15
who
doesn’t
own
a
mobile
phone.
In
fact,
plenty
of
younger
kids
have
one
in
their
pocket.
Practically
everyone
can
make
and
receive
calls
anywhere,
anytime.
Still,
55
percent
of
Australians
have
a
landline
phone
at
home
and
only
just
over
a
quarter
(29%)
rely
only
on
their
smartphones,
according
to
a
survey
(调查).
Of
those
Australians
who
still
have
a
landline,
a
third
concede
that
it's
not
really
necessary
and
they're
keeping
it
as
a
security
blanket
-
19
percent
say
they
never
use
it
while
a
further
13
percent
keep
it
in
case
of
emergencies.
I
think
my
home
falls
into
that
category.
More
than
half
of
Australian
homes
are
still
choosing
to
stick
with
their
home
phone.
Age
is
naturally
a
factor
(因素)-only
58
percent
of
Generation
Ys
still
use
landlines
now
and
then,
compared
to
84
percent
of
Baby
Boomers
who've
perhaps
had
the
same
home
number
for
50
years.
Age
isn't
the
only
factor;
I'd
say
it's
also
to
do
with
the
makeup
of
your
household.
Generation
Xers
with
young
families,
like
my
wife
and
I,
can
still
find
it
convenient
to
have
a
home
phone
rather
than
providing
a
mobile
phone
for
every
family
member.
That
said,
to
be
honest
the
only
people
who
ever
ring
our
home
phone
are
our
Baby
Boomers
parents,
to
the
point
where
we
play
a
game
and
guess
who
is
calling
before
we
pick
up
the
phone
(using
Caller
ID
would
take
the
fun
out
of
it).
How
attached
are
you
to
your
landline?
How
long
until
they
go
the
way
of
gas
street
lamps
and
morning
milk
deliveries?
24.
What
does
paragraph
2
mainly
tell
us
about
mobile
phones?
A.
Their
target
users.
B.
Their
wide
popularity.
C.
Their
major
functions.
D.
Their
complex
design.
25.
What
does
the
underlined
word
"concede"
in
paragraph
3
mean?
A.
Admit.
B.
Argue.
C.
Remember.
D.
Remark.
26.
What
can
we
say
about
Baby
Boomers?
A.
They
like
smartphone
games.
B.
They
enjoy
guessing
callers’
identity.
C.
They
keep
using
landline
phones.
D.
They
are
attached
to
their
family.
27.
What
can
be
inferred
about
the
landline
from
the
last
paragraph?
A.
It
remains
a
family
necessity.
B.
It
will
fall
out
of
use
some
day.
C.
It
may
increase
daily
expenses.
D.
It
is
as
important
as
the
gas
light.
C
You’ve
heard
that
plastic
is
polluting
the
oceans—between
4.8
and
12.7
million
tonnes
enter
ocean
ecosystems
every
year.
But
does
one
plastic
straw
or
cup
really
make
a
difference?
Artist
Benjamin
Von
Wong
wants
you
to
know
that
it
does.
He
builds
massive
sculptures
out
of
plastic
garbage,
foreign
viewers
to
re-examine
their
relationship
to
single-use
plastic
products.
At
the
beginning
of
the
year,
the
artist
built
a
piece
called
"Strawpocalypse,
"
a
pair
of
10-foot-tall
plastic
waves,
frozen
mid-crash.
Made
of
168,000
plastic
straws
collected
from
several
volunteer
beach
cleanups,
the
sculpture
made
its
first
appearance
at
the
Estella
Place
shopping
center
in
Ho
Chi
Minh
City,
Vietnam.
Just
9%
of
global
plastic
waste
is
recycled.
Plastic
straws
are
by
no
means
the
biggest
source
(来源)
of
plastic
pollution,
but
they’ve
recently
come
under
fire
because
most
people
don’t
need
them
to
drink
with
and,
because
of
their
small
size
and
weight,
they
cannot
be
recycled.
Every
straw
that'
s
part
of
Von
Wong's
artwork
likely
came
from
a
drink
that
someone
used
for
only
a
few
minutes.
Once
the
drink
is
gone,
the
straw
will
take
centuries
to
disappear.
In
a
piece
from
2018,
Von
Wong
wanted
to
illustrate
(说明)
a
specific
statistic:
Every
60
seconds,
a
truckload's
worth
of
plastic
enters
the
ocean.
For
this
work,
titled
"Truckload
of
Plastic,
"
Von
Wong
and
a
group
of
volunteers
collected
more
than
10,000
pieces
of
plastic,
which
were
then
tied
together
to
look
like
they’d
been
dumped
(倾倒)
from
a
truck
all
at
once.
Von
Wong
hopes
that
his
work
will
also
help
pressure
big
companies
to
reduce
their
plastic
footprint.
28.
What
are
Von
Wong’s
artworks
intended
for?
A.
Beautifying
the
city
he
lives
in.
B.
Introducing
eco-friendly
products.
C.
Drawing
public
attention
to
plastic
waste.
D.
Reducing
garbage
on
the
beach.
29.
Why
does
the
author
discuss
plastic
straws
in
paragraph
3?
A.
To
show
the
difficulty
of
their
recycling.
B.
To
explain
why
they
are
useful.
C.
To
voice
his
views
on
modern
art.
D.
To
find
a
substitute
for
them.
30.
What
effect
would
"Truckload
of
Plastic"
have
on
viewers?
A.
Calming.
B.
Disturbing
C
Refreshing
D.
Challenging.
31.

the
following

be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.

Safety
B.

C.

D.

D
During
an
interview
for
one
of
my
books,
my
interviewer
said
something
I
still
think
about
often.
Annoyed
by
the
level
of
distraction
(干扰)
in
his
open
office,
he
said,
"That’s
why
I
have
a
membership
at
the
coworking
space
across
the
street
-so
I
can
focus.
"
His
comment
struck
me
as
strange.
After
all,
coworking
spaces
also
typically
use
an
open
office
layout
(布局).
But
I
recently
came
across
a
study
that
shows
why
his
approach
works
The
researchers
examined
various
levels
of
noise
on
participants
as
they
completed
tests
of
creative
thinking.
They
were
randomly
divided
into
four
groups
and
exposed
to
various
noise
levels
in
the
background,
from
total
silence
to
50
decibels
(分贝),
70
decibels,
and
85
decibels.
The
differences
between
most
of
the
groups
were
statistically
insignificant;
however,
the
participants
in
the
70
decibels
group—those
exposed
to
a
level
of
noise
similar
to
background
chatter
in
a
coffee
shop-significantly
outperformed
the
other
groups.
Since
the
effects
were
small,
this
may
suggest
that
our
creative
thinking
does
not
differ
that
much
in
response
to
total
silence
and
85
decibels
of
background
noise.
But
since
the
results
at
70
decibels
were
significant,
the
study
also
suggests
that
the
right
level
of
background
noise-not
too
loud
and
not
total
silence-may
actually
improve
one’s
creative
thinking
ability.
The
right
level
of
background
noise
may
interrupt
our
normal
patterns
of
thinking
just
enough
to
allow
our
imaginations
to
wander,
without
making
it
impossible
to
focus.
This
kind
of
"distracted
focus"
appears
to
be
the
best
state
for
working
on
creative
tasks.
So
why
do
so
many
of
us
hate
our
open
offices?
The
problem
may
be
that,
in
our
offices,
we
can't
stop
ourselves
from
getting
drawn
into
others’
conversations
while
we’re
trying
to
focus.
Indeed,
the
researchers
found
that
face-to-face
interactions
and
conversations
affect
the
creative
process,
and
yet
a
coworking
space
or
a
coffee
shop
provides
a
certain
level
of
noise
while
also
providing
freedom
from
interruptions.
32.
Why
does
the
interviewer
prefer
a
coworking
space?
A.
It
helps
him
concentrate.
B.
It
blocks
out
background
noise.
C.
It
has
a
pleasant
atmosphere.
D.
It
encourages
face-to-face
interactions.
33.
Which
level
of
background
noise
may
promote
creative
thinking
ability?
A.
Total
silence.
B.
50
decibels.
C.
70
decibels.
D.
85
decibels.
34.
What
makes
an
open
office
unwelcome
to
many
people?
A.
Personal
privacy
unprotected.
B.
Limited
working
space.
C.
Restrictions
on
group
discussion.
D.
Constant
interruptions.
35.What
can
we
infer
about
the
author
from
the
text?
A.
He’s
a
news
reporter.
B.
He’s
on
office
manager.
C.
He’s
a
professional
designer.
D.
He's
a

According
to
Jessica
Hagy,
author
of
How
to
Be
Interesting,
it's
not
difficult
to
make
yourself
interesting
at
a
dinner
party.
___36___,
if
you're
out
of
your
comfort
zone
or
if
you're
wandering
into
somebody's
house
for
the
first
time.
So
the
main
thing
is
just
to
show
up
and
be
adventurous,
trying
different
foods
and
talking
to
strangers.
People
love
to
talk
about
themselves.
If
you
can
start
the
conversation
with
a
question
other
than
“What
do
you
do
for
a
living?",
you'll
be
able
to
get
a
lot
more
interesting
conversation
out
of
whomever
it
is
you're
talking
to.
____37
___.
it
can
bring
in
"I
have
this
old,
broken-down
vehicle"
or
"I
rode
the
bus
with
these
crazy
people
who
were
laughing
at
silly
jokes
in
the
back."
It
just
opens
up
conversation.
____38___?
If
you
can't
take
their
wine
away,
you
should
certainly
try
to
take
away
their
soapbox
(讲台).
If
you're
the
host,
you
can
ask
them
to
help
you
in
the
kitchen
with
something
and
just
remove
them
from
the
situation.
___39_____
And
what
about
that
other
dinner-party
killer:
awkward
silence?
If
you're
faced
with
an
awkward
silence
at
a
dinner
party,
the
only
thing
that
always

I
was
considering
this
while

Just
a

weeks
ago.
And
it

express

Ecotourism
is
commonly
regarded
as
low
impact
(影响)travel
to
undisturbed
places.
It
is
different
from
traditional
tourism
because
it
allows
the
traveler
to
become
61
(educate)
about
the
areas
-
both
in
terms
of
geographical
conditions
and
cultural
characteristics,
and
often
provides
money
for
conservation
and
benefits
the
62
(develop)
of
the
local
areas.
Ecotourism
has
63
(
it
)
origin
with
the
environmental
movement
of
the
1970s.
It
was
not
widely
accepted
as
a
travel
concept
64
(
)
the
late
1980s.
During
that
time,
increasing
environmental
awareness
made
it
desirable.
Due
to
65
(
)
growing
popularity
of
environmentally-related
and
adventure
travel,
various
types
66(
)
trips
are
now
being
classified
as
ecotourism.
Actually,
a
true
eco-friendly
trip
must
meet
the
following
principles:
Minimize
the
impact
of
67
(visit)
the
place.
Build
respect
for
and
awareness
of
the
environment
and
cultural
practices.
Provide
68
(finance)
aid
and
other
benefits
for
local
peoples.
Make
sure
that
the
tourism
provides
positive
experiences
for
both
the
visitors
and
the
hosts.
Komodo
National
Park,
officially
recognized
in
1980,
is
popular
for
ecotourism
because
of
its
unique
biodiversity.
69
(activity)
there
range
from
whale
watching
to
hiking
(远足)
and
accommodations
aim

(have)

I
love
doing
housework.
I
always
assist
my
parents
in
doing
the
dish
after
meals.
I
also
water
the
flowers
in
the
yard
and
tidying
up
my
own
bedroom
whatever
necessary.
In
my
opinion,
students
can
benefit
a
lot
doing
some
housework.
Firstly,
doing
housework
was
helpful
for
us
to
be
a
responsible
person.
Also,
it
gives
our
parents
more
time
to
do
what
they
are
like
and
it
improves
the
family
relationship.
What's
most,
doing
housework
can
be
a
form
of
mentally
relaxation
from
study.
That’s
our
view
on
housework.
And
hopes
this
can
inspire
more
thinking
on
the
topic!

The
Biggest
Stadiums
in
the
World
People
have
been
pouring
into
stadiums
since
the
days
of
ancient
Greece.
In
around
8
A.Q.,
the
Romans
built
the
Colosseum,
which
remains
the
world's
best
known
stadium
are
continues
to
inform
contemporary
design.
Rome’s
Colosseum
was
157
feet
tall
and
had
80
entrances,
seating
50,000
people.
However,
that
was
small
fry
compared
with
the
city’s
Circus
Maximus,
which
accommodated
around
250,000
people.
These
days,
safety
regulations-not
to
mention
the
modern
sports
fan’s
desire
for
a
good
view
and
a
comfortable
seat-tend
to
keep
stadium
capacities(容量)slightly
lower.
Even
soccer
fans
tend
to
have
a
seat
each;
gone
are
the
days
of
thousands
standing
to
watch
the
match.
For

D
细节理解题。“However,
that
was
small
fry
compared
with
the
city’s
Circus
Maximus,
which
accommodated
around
250,000
people.”
然而，与容纳了大约25万人的城市马戏团Maximus相比，这只是小菜一碟。
22.
C细节理解题。题干问的是“which
is
the
oldest?”，所以答案是Ohio
Stadium。
23.
A细节理解题。根据“All
these
stadiums
are
still
functional,
still
open
and
still
hosting
the
biggest
events
in
world
sport.”可知，所列举的这些体育场都仍然在举办世界上最大的赛事。
【文章大意】
从古希腊时代起，人们就开始涌入体育场。大约在公元前8时，罗马人建造了斗兽场，它仍然是世界上最著名的体育场，并继续为当代设计提供信息。罗马斗兽场高157英尺，有80个入口，可容纳5万人。然而，与容纳了大约25万人的城市马戏团Maximus相比，这只是小菜一碟。
如今，安全法规（更不用说现代体育迷对良好视野和舒适座位的渴望）往往会保持体育场的容量稍微低一点。即使是足球迷也倾向于每人都有一个座位；成千上万人站着看比赛的日子一去不复返了。
对于世界上最大的体育场馆，我们使用了迄今为止由世界地图集列表提供的数据，该列表根据其规定的永久容量对它们进行了排名，以及来自官方体育场网站的最新信息。
所有这些体育场仍然是功能性的，仍然开放，仍然举办世界体育最大的事件。
?朝鲜平壤的5.1体育场，1989年5月1日开放，容纳15万人。
?美国密歇根州安娜堡市密歇根体育场，1960年9月17日开放，容纳107601人。
?美国宾夕法尼亚州州立学院海狸体育场，1927年10月1日开放，容纳106572人。
?美国俄亥俄州哥伦布市俄亥俄体育场，1922年10月7日开放，容纳104944人。
?美国得克萨斯州大学站凯尔场，1927年9月24日开放，容纳102512人。

When
almost
everyone
has
a
mobile
phone,
why
are
more
than
half
of
Australian
homes
still
paying
for
a
landline
(座机)
These
days
you'd
be
hard
pressed
to
find
anyone
in
Australia
over
the
age
of
15
who
doesn’t
own
a
mobile
phone.
In
fact,
plenty
of
younger
kids
have
one
in
their
pocket.
Practically
everyone
can
make
and
receive
calls
anywhere,
anytime.
Still,
55
percent
of
Australians
have
a
landline
phone
at
home
and
only
just
over
a
quarter
(29%)
rely
only
on
their
smartphones,
according
to
a
survey
(调查).
Of
those
Australians
who
still
have
a
landline,
a
third
concede
that
it's
not
really
necessary
and
they're
keeping
it
as
a
security
blanket
-
19
percent
say
they
never
use
it
while
a
further
13
percent
keep
it
in
case
of
emergencies.
I
think
my
home
falls
into
that
category.
More
than
half
of
Australian
homes
are
still
choosing
to
stick
with
their
home
phone.
Age
is
naturally
a
factor
(因素)-only
58
percent
of
Generation
Ys
still
use
landlines
now
and
then,
compared
to
84
percent
of
Baby
Boomers
who've
perhaps
had
the
same
home
number
for
50
years.
Age
isn't
the
only
factor;
I'd
say
it's
also
to
do
with
the
makeup
of
your
household.
Generation
Xers
with
young
families,
like
my
wife
and
I,
can
still
find
it
convenient
to
have
a
home
phone
rather
than
providing
a
mobile
phone
for
every
family
member.
That
said,
to
be
honest
the
only
people
who
ever
ring
our
home
phone
are
our
Baby
Boomers
parents,
to
the
point
where
we
play
a
game
and
guess
who
is
calling
before
we
pick
up
the
phone
(using
Caller
ID
would
take
the
fun
out
of
it).
How
attached
are
you
to
your
landline?
How
long
until
they
go
the
way
of
gas
street
lamps
and
morning
milk
deliveries?
24.
What
does
paragraph
2
mainly
tell
us
about
mobile
phones?
A.
Their
target
users.
B.
Their
wide
popularity.
C.
Their
major
functions.
D.
Their
complex

25.
What
does
the
underlined
word
"concede"
in
paragraph
3
mean?
A.
Admit.
B.
Argue.
C.
Remember.
D.
Remark.
26.
What
can
we
say
about
Baby

A.
They
like
smartphone

B.
They

identity.
C.
They
keep
using

D.
They
are

27.
What
can
be
inferred
about

A.
It
remains
a

B.
It

【参考答案】(24-27)
BACB
【试题解析】
本文为论说文。论述的主要内容是：随着手机的普及，座机使用率越来越低，但是澳大利亚的很多家庭还在许纳泽使用固定电话。这种现象是否会退出历史舞台，文章作者结合自身经理对其原因进行了阐述。
24.
B
推理判断题。根据“These
days
you'd
be
hard
pressed
to
find
anyone
in
Australia
over
the
age
of
15
who
doesn’t
own
a
mobile
phone.
In
fact
plenty
of
younger
kids
have
one
in
their
pocket.
Practically
everyone
can
make
and
receive
calls
anywhere,
anytime.”可知，你很难在澳大利亚找到15岁以上没有手机的人。事实上，很多年年龄更小一些的孩子口袋里都有手机。几乎每个人都可以随时随地拨打和接听电话。
25.
A词义猜测题。根据“Of
those
Australians
who
still
have
a
landline,
a
third
concede
that
it's
not
really
necessary
and
they're
keeping
it
as
a
security
blanket”可知，在那些仍然有固定电话的澳大利亚人中，三分之一的人承认这并不是真的必要，他们把它当作一张安全的保障。Concede的一丝的承认。
26.
C细节理解题。根据“58
percent
of
Generation
Ys
still
use
landlines
now
and
then,
compared
to
84
percent
of
Baby
Boomers
who've
perhaps
had
the
same
home
number
for
50
years.”可知84%的Baby
Boomers一直在使用固定电话。Baby
Boomers指第二次世界大战后生育高峰期出生的人。
27.B
推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话，“How
long
until
they
go
the
way
of
gas
street
lamps
and
morning
milk
deliveries?”固定电话会在多久之后重蹈走煤气路灯和早上送牛奶服务的覆辙。go
the
way
of，意思是：走……的路/重蹈……覆辙。
【文章大意】
当几乎每个人都有手机的时候，为什么超过一半的澳大利亚家庭仍然在为固定电话付费。
现在你很难在澳大利亚找到15岁以上没有手机的人。事实上，很多年龄耕地的孩子口袋里都有手机。几乎每个人都可以随时随地拨打和接听电话。
不过，一项调查显示，55%的澳大利亚人在家里有固定电话，只有略高于四分之一（29%）的人只依赖智能手机。在那些仍然有固定电话的澳大利亚人中，三分之一的人承认这并不是真的必要，他们把它当作一张安全的保障—19%的人说他们从不使用它，还有13%的人保留它是为了在紧急情况下使用。我在考虑我的家属于那一类呢。
超过一半的澳大利亚家庭仍然选择坚持使用固定电话。年龄自然是一个因素-只有58%的Y一代仍然时不时地使用固定电话，相比之下，婴儿潮一代中有84%的人可能已经有50年相同的家庭号码了。年龄不是唯一的因素；我想这也和你家的妆容有关。
像我和妻子这样的年轻家庭的X一代人，仍然可以发现拥有一部家庭电话比为每个家庭成员提供一部手机更方便。也就是说，老实说，唯一打过我们家电话的人是婴儿潮一代的父母，以至于我们玩游戏，在拿起电话之前猜谁在打电话（使用来电显示会让我们失去乐趣）。
你和你的座机有多少联系？固定电话会在多久之后重蹈走煤气路灯和早晨送牛奶服务的覆辙呢？

You’ve
heard
that
plastic
is
polluting
the
oceans—between
4.8
and
12.7
million
tonnes
enter
ocean
ecosystems
every
year.
But
does
one
plastic
straw
or
cup
really
make
a
difference?
Artist
Benjamin
Von
Wong
wants
you
to
know
that
it
does.
He
builds
massive
sculptures
out
of
plastic
garbage,
foreign
viewers
to
re-examine
their
relationship
to
single-use
plastic
products.
At
the
beginning
of
the
year,
the
artist
built
a
piece
called
"Strawpocalypse,
"
a
pair
of
10-foot-tall
plastic
waves,
frozen
mid-crash.
Made
of
168,000
plastic
straws
collected
from
several
volunteer
beach
cleanups,
the
sculpture
made
its
first
appearance
at
the
Estella
Place
shopping
center
in
Ho
Chi
Minh
City,
Vietnam.
Just
9%
of
global
plastic
waste
is
recycled.
Plastic
straws
are
by
no
means
the
biggest
source
(来源)
of
plastic
pollution,
but
they’ve
recently
come
under
fire
because
most
people
don’t
need
them
to
drink
with
and,
because
of
their
small
size
and
weight,
they
cannot
be
recycled.
Every
straw
that'
s
part
of
Von
Wong's
artwork
likely
came
from
a
drink
that
someone
used
for
only
a
few
minutes.
Once
the
drink
is
gone,
the
straw
will
take
centuries
to
disappear.
In
a
piece
from
2018,
Von
Wong
wanted
to
illustrate
(说明)
a
specific
statistic:
Every
60
seconds,
a
truckload's
worth
of
plastic
enters
the
ocean.
For
this
work,
titled
"Truckload
of
Plastic,
"
Von
Wong
and
a
group
of
volunteers
collected
more
than
10,000
pieces
of
plastic,
which
were
then
tied
together
to
look
like
they’d
been
dumped
(倾倒)
from
a
truck
all
at
once.
Von
Wong
hopes
that
his
work
will
also
help
pressure
big
companies
to
reduce
their
plastic
footprint.
28.
What
are
Von
Wong’s
artworks
intended
for?
A.
Beautifying
the
city
he
lives
in.
B.
Introducing
eco-friendly
products.
C.
Drawing
public
attention
to
plastic
waste.
D.
Reducing
garbage
on
the
beach.
29.
Why
does
the
author
discuss
plastic
straws
in
paragraph
3?
A.
To
show
the
difficulty
of
their
recycling.
B.
To
explain
why
they
are
useful.
C.
To
voice
his
views
on
modern
art.
D.
To
find
a
substitute
for
them.
30.
What
effect
would
"Truckload
of
Plastic"
have
on
viewers?
A.
Calming.
B.
Disturbing
C
Refreshing
D.
Challenging.
31.
Which
of
the

本文是一篇新闻报道，关于环境保护的问题。讲的是艺术家Benjamin
Von
Wong用废弃的塑料建造了巨大的雕塑，希望人们重新审视人与一次性塑料制品的关系，旨在引起大家对塑料垃圾的关注与重视。
28.
C
细节理解题。根据“He
builds
massive
sculptures
out
of

foreign
viewers

re-examine
their
relationship
to
single-use
plastic

Von
Wong用塑料垃圾建造了巨大的雕塑，希望人们重新审视人与一次性塑料制品的关系。
29.
A
推理判断题。根据“Just
9%
of
global
plastic
waste
is
recycled.”和“Once
the
drink
is
gone,
the
straw
will
take
centuries
to
disappear.”可知，文中提到的塑料吸管很难被回收。答案B意思与其相悖，其它两项答案未涉及，均排除。
30.
B
推理判断题。根据“which
were
then
tied
together
to
look
like
they’d
been
dumped
(倾倒)
from
a
truck
all
at
once.”可知，作品"Truckload
of
Plastic"是用一万件塑料废品连在一起的，看起来就好像是从卡车里一下子倾倒出来似的，其视觉效果会令观看者感到焦虑、不安。
31.
D
标题归纳题。本文主要是介绍了艺术家Benjamin
Von
Wong用废弃的塑料建造了巨大的雕塑，希望人们重新审视人与一次性塑料制品的关系，旨在引起大家对塑料垃圾的关注与重视。所以答案D为最佳答案。答案A说的是塑料安全内容；答案B谁的谁媒体对现代艺术的兴趣；答案C说的是大公司被要求承担责任，显然没有概括全篇内容。
【文章大意】
你听说过塑料污染海洋每年有480万到1270万吨进入海洋生态系统。但一根塑料吸管或一个塑料杯子真的能起作用吗？艺术家Benjamin
Von
Wong想让你知道这是真的。他用塑料垃圾建造了巨大的雕塑，希望人们重新审视人与一次性塑料制品的关系。
年初，艺术家创作了一幅名为“Strawpocalypse”的作品，一对10英尺高的塑料波浪，半死不活的僵在那里。这座雕塑由从几次海滩清理志愿者那里收集的16.8万根塑料吸管制成，首次出现在越南胡志明市的埃斯特拉广场购物中心。
全球只有9%的塑料废料被回收利用。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染来源，但这些塑料吸管最近受到冲击，因为大多数人不需要他们，因为他们的体积和重量小，不能回收。Benjamin
Von
Wong作品中的每一根吸管都可能来自一种饮料，而这种饮料只有几分钟的时间。一旦饮料消失，吸管需要几个世纪才能消失。
在2018年的一篇文章中，Von
Wong想说明一个具体的统计：每60秒，一卡车的塑料进入海洋。在这项名为“一卡车塑料”的工作中，Von
Wong和一组志愿者收集了1万多块塑料，然后把它们连在一起，看起来像是从卡车上下来被倾倒下来一样。
Von
Wong希望他的工作能帮助大公司减少塑料使用。
D
During
an
interview
for
one
of
my
books,
my
interviewer
said
something
I
still
think
about
often.
Annoyed
by
the
level
of
distraction
(干扰)
in
his
open
office,
he
said,
"That’s
why
I
have
a
membership
at
the
coworking
space
across
the
street
-so
I
can
focus.
"
His
comment
struck
me
as
strange.
After
all,
coworking
spaces
also
typically
use
an
open
office
layout
(布局).
But
I
recently
came
across
a
study
that
shows
why
his
approach
works
The
researchers
examined
various
levels
of
noise
on
participants
as
they
completed
tests
of
creative
thinking.
They
were
randomly
divided
into
four
groups
and
exposed
to
various
noise
levels
in
the
background,
from
total
silence
to
50
decibels
(分贝),
70
decibels,
and
85
decibels.
The
differences
between
most
of
the
groups
were
statistically
insignificant;
however,
the
participants
in
the
70
decibels
group—those
exposed
to
a
level
of
noise
similar
to
background
chatter
in
a
coffee
shop-significantly
outperformed
the
other
groups.
Since
the
effects
were
small,
this
may
suggest
that
our
creative
thinking
does
not
differ
that
much
in
response
to
total
silence
and
85
decibels
of
background
noise.
But
since
the
results
at
70
decibels
were
significant,
the
study
also
suggests
that
the
right
level
of
background
noise-not
too
loud
and
not
total
silence-may
actually
improve
one’s
creative
thinking
ability.
The
right
level
of
background
noise
may
interrupt
our
normal
patterns
of
thinking
just
enough
to
allow
our
imaginations
to
wander,
without
making
it
impossible
to
focus.
This
kind
of
"distracted
focus"
appears
to
be
the
best
state
for
working
on
creative
tasks.
So
why
do
so
many
of
us
hate
our
open
offices?
The
problem
may
be
that,
in
our
offices,
we
can't
stop
ourselves
from
getting
drawn
into
others’
conversations
while
we’re
trying
to
focus.
Indeed,
the
researchers
found
that
face-to-face
interactions
and
conversations
affect
the
creative
process,
and
yet
a
coworking
space
or
a
coffee
shop
provides
a
certain
level
of
noise
while
also
providing
freedom
from
interruptions.
32.
Why
does
the
interviewer
prefer
a
coworking
space?
A.
It
helps
him
concentrate.
B.
It
blocks
out
background
noise.
C.
It
has
a
pleasant
atmosphere.
D.
It
encourages
face-to-face
interactions.
33.
Which
level
of
background
noise
may
promote
creative
thinking
ability?
A.
Total
silence.
B.
50
decibels.
C.
70
decibels.
D.
85
decibels.
34.
What
makes
an

unwelcome

many
people?
A.
Personal
privacy
unprotected.
B.
Limited
working

A.
He’s
a

He’s

【参考答案】(32-35)
ACDD
【试题解析】
本文是一篇说明文，介绍了七十分贝的背景音乐不仅不会影响人的注意力，而且还会提升人的创造性思维。
32.
A
细节理解题。根据第一段"That’s
why
I
have
a
membership
at
the
coworking
space
across
the
street
-so
I
can
focus.
"可知，他的采访者对自己在开放的办公室工作分心的程度而感到恼火，他说：“这就是我成为街对面合作工作空间会员的原因——这样我就可以集中精力工作了。答案A选项concentrate与文中focus为同义词。所以排除B、D选项，选项C文中未提及。
33.
C
细节理解题。根据第二段“the
participants
in
the
70
decibels
group—those
exposed
to
a
level
of
noise
similar
to
background
chatter
in
a

outperformed
the
other

the

also
suggests
that
the
right
level
of
background
noise-not
too

34.
D
细节理解题。根据最后一段“So
why
do
so

The
problem
may
be
that,
in
our
offices,
we
can't
stop
ourselves
from
getting
drawn
into
others’
conversations
while
we’re
trying
to
focus.”可知，很多人不喜欢开放办公室，因为当他们努力集中注意力时，无法阻止自己被别人的谈话所吸引。题干中unwelcome与文中hate是近义词。
35.
D
推理判断题。根据文章一开始的“During
an
interview
for
one
of
my
books”可推断出，文章作者是一位已经有出版作品的作家。
【文章大意】
在我对我的一本书采访中，我的采访者说了一些令我仍然经常想起的话。他对自己在开放的办公室工作分心的程度感到恼火，他说：“这就是我成为街对面合作工作空间会员的原因——这样我就可以集中精力工作了。他的评论使我感到奇怪。毕竟，合作工作空间通常也使用开放式办公室布局，但我最近遇到了一项研究，它说明了为什么他的方法有效。
研究人员检查了参与者在完成创造性思维测试时的各种噪音水平。他们被随机分成四组，他们都在不同的背景噪音中，从完全安静到50分贝,
70分贝和85分贝，各组间差异无统计学意义。然而，在70分贝组中，那些在类似于咖啡店背景喋喋不休的噪音中的参与者的表现明显优于其他组。由于影响很小，这可能表明我们的创造性思维在完全沉默和85分贝的背景噪音下没有太大的不同。
但是，70分贝的结果是显著的，研究还表明，适当的背景噪音不要太大，也不要完全沉默，实际上可能会提高一个人的创造性思维能力。适当水平的背景噪音可能会打断我们正常的思维模式，足以让我们的想象力四处游荡，而不会让我们无法集中注意力。这种“注意力分散”似乎是从事创造性工作的最佳状态。
为什么我们这么多人讨厌我们的办公室？问题可能是，在我们的办公室里，当我们努力集中注意力时，我们无法阻止自己被别人的谈话所吸引。事实上，研究人员发现，面对面的互动和对话会影响创作过程，然而，一个合作工作的空间或咖啡馆在提供一定程度的噪音的同时，也提供了免受干扰的自由。

According
to
Jessica
Hagy,
author
of
How
to
Be
Interesting,
it's
not
difficult
to
make
yourself
interesting
at
a
dinner
party.
___36___,
if
you're
out
of
your
comfort
zone
or
if
you're
wandering
into
somebody's
house
for
the
first
time.
So
the
main
thing
is
just
to
show
up
and
be
adventurous,
trying
different
foods
and
talking
to
strangers.
People
love
to
talk
about
themselves.
If
you
can
start
the
conversation
with
a
question
other
than
“What
do
you
do
for
a
living?",
you'll
be
able
to
get
a
lot
more
interesting
conversation
out
of
whomever
it
is
you're
talking
to.
____37
___.
it
can
bring
in
"I
have
this
old,
broken-down
vehicle"
or
"I
rode
the
bus
with
these
crazy
people
who
were
laughing
at
silly
jokes
in
the
back."
It
just
opens
up
conversation.
____38___?
If
you
can't
take
their
wine
away,
you
should
certainly
try
to
take
away
their
soapbox
(讲台).
If
you're
the
host,
you
can
ask
them
to
help
you
in
the
kitchen
with
something
and
just
remove
them
from
the
situation.
___39_____
And
what
about
that
other
dinner-party
killer:
awkward
silence?
If
you're
faced
with
an
awkward
silence
at
a
dinner
party,
the
only
thing
that
always
gets
everyone
talking
again
is
to
give
the
host
a
compliment
(赞扬).__40___.
Just
quickly
tun
around
and
say,
"This
cake
is
extremely
delicious
and
you
have
to
tell
me
all
about
it.”
So
being
interesting
at
a
dinner
party
isn’t
that
hard.
A.
How
do
you
know
the
host
B.
The
first
step
is
to
go
exploring
C.
If
you
ask
the
question
"How
did
you
get
here？"
D.
Be
prepared
to
have
awkward
conversations
with
strangers
E.
Or
turn
the
conversation
into
a
topic
where
they
have
little
to
say
F.
What
about
that
person
who
has
had
too
much
to
drink
or
won't
stop
talking
G.
He
or
she
is
the
person
who
is
feeling
the
weight
of
that
awkwardness
the
most

B.
The
first
step
is
to
go
exploring。在第二段的段落之首，有承上启下的作用。根据第一段中“it's
not

to
make
yourself
interesting
at
a
dinner
party”和后面的“just
to
show
up
and
be
adventurous,
trying
different

exploring”与“be
adventurous,
trying
different
foods
and
talking
to
strangers”前后呼应。
37.
C.
根据空格后“it

vehicle"
or
"I
rode
the
bus
with
these
crazy
people
who
were
laughing
at
silly
jokes
in
the
back."”可知，选项C符合语境，C选项中“If
you
ask
the
question”与上文“If
you
can
start
the
conversation
with
a
question”构成了英文中的排比句子。
38.
F.
在段落之首，并且是问句，选项中A、F是问句；根据空格后“If
you
can't
take
their
wine
away,
you
should
certainly
try
to
take
away
their
soapbox”可知，F选项符合语境。
39.
E.
该题在段尾，根据空格前“If
you're

(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分
)
Ecotourism
is
commonly
regarded
as
low
impact
(影响)travel
to
undisturbed
places.
It
is
different
from
traditional
tourism
because
it
allows
the
traveler
to
become
61
(educated)
about
the
areas
-
both
in
terms
of
geographical
conditions
and
cultural
characteristics,
and
often
provides
money
for
conservation
and
benefits
the
62
(development)
of
the
local
areas.
Ecotourism
has
63
(its)
origin
with
the
environmental
movement
of
the
1970s.
It
was
not
widely
accepted
as
a
travel
concept
64
until
the
late
1980s.
During
that
time,
increasing
environmental
awareness
made
it
desirable.
Due
to
65
the
growing
popularity
of
environmentally-related
and
adventure
travel,
various
types
66
of
trips
are
now
being
classified
as
ecotourism.
Actually,
a
true
eco-friendly
trip
must
meet
the
following
principles:
Minimize
the
impact
of
67
(visiting)
the
place.
Build
respect
for
and
awareness
of
the
environment
and
cultural
practices.
Provide
68
(finance去掉e+ial)
aid
and
other
benefits
for
local
peoples.
Make
sure
that
the
tourism
provides
positive
experiences
for
both
the
visitors
and
the
hosts.
Komodo
National
Park,
officially
recognized
in
1980,
is
popular
for
ecotourism
because
of
its
unique
biodiversity.
69
(activity去掉y+ies)
there
range
from
whale
watching
to
hiking
(远足)
and
accommodations
aim
70
(to
have)
a
low
impact
on
the
natural
environment.

Be
smart
online
learners
Good
afternoon!
everybody!
I
am
very
honored
to
be
here
to
share
my
topic
with
you.
Today
I'd
like
to
talk
something
about
Be
smart
online
learners.
I
like
learning
on
line,
because
it
convenient
to
learn.
And
it
has
some
advantages.
Firstly,
learning
on
line
can
save
time,
and
it
breaks
the
geographical
boundaries.
We
can
learn
online
at
any
time
and
place.
Online
courses
can
be
recorded
and
saved
to
facilitate
learning
and
review
after
class.
Therefore,
learning
on
line
is
efficiency
Secondly,
online
learning
greatly
reduces
the
cost
of
learning.
It
can
save
the
cost
of
transportation,
board
and
lodging.
And
all
courses
or
learning
materials
can
be
obtained
online,
creating
a
cost-effective
paperless
learning
environment.
But,
it
has
some
disadvantages.
The
quality
of
courseware
is
sometimes
affected
by
the
network
environment,
the
interaction
between
students
and
teachers
is
relatively
poor.
And
personal
learning
progress
is
not
easy
to
control,
there
are
too
rash
or
procrastination.
This
is
my
opinion.
OK,
thank
you
for
listening.
【参考范文译文】
大家下午好！
我很荣幸能在这里与大家分享我的话题。今天我想谈谈如何成为聪明的在线学习者。我喜欢网上学习，因为网上学习很方便。它有一些优点。
首先，在线学习可以节省时间，它打破了地理界限。我们可以随时随地在线学习。在线课程可以记录和保存，以方便学习和课后复习。因此，在线学习是一种高效的学习方式
其次，在线学习大大降低了学习成本。它可以节省交通、食宿费用。而且所有课程或学习资料都可以在网上获得，创造了一个成本效益高的无纸化学习环境。
但是，它也有一些缺点。课件的质量有时会受到网络环境的影响，师生之间的互动性相对较差。而个人的学习进度不易控制，存在过于草率或拖沓。
这仅仅是我的个人看法，谢谢各位的聆听！
