A
Soon enough. we will lose some of the most amazing sites on Earth!
The Great Barrier Reef
Rising air temperatures will cause sea temperatures to rise as well. All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem. Coral are some of the most vulnerable(易受伤害的) marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear. The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise！These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving，but they will soon disappear!
Venice
Sprawling across(横跨) hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy, Venice is at extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea. Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level. Lucky for us, however, Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.
Glacier(冰川)National Park
Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27. Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population. As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.
The Amazon
The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places finally comes down to humans. Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials, but rarely considers the consequences. These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet!
What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations？
21.According to the text, what is causing coral's death?
A. Rising sea levels.
B. Humans' diving activities.
C. Rising sea temperatures.
D. The shrinkage(缩小) of their habitats.
22. What can we learn about Glacier National Park from the text?
A. It covers a large area in Montana.
B. It is covered by over 150 glaciers.
C. Plant species and animals in it have died out.
D. It doesn't support any living thing for its cold.
23. Which site's shrinking reason differs from the other sites?
A. The Great Barrier Reef. B. Venice.
C. Glacier National Park. D. The Amazon.
B
David Rees runs a truly distinctive business. He charges customers $15 to sharpen their pencils to perfection, using a variety of tools.
I know what you’re thinking—is this a joke？The 39-year-old gets asked that question a lot. To clarify everything, he even created a special section on his website telling everyone he’s actually providing a real service.
You can supply your own pencil or you can have Rees sharpen one of his own favorite 2B pencils. After that, he mails it to you in a display tube with the shavings in a separate bag, and an authentic certificate which just happens to mention the pencil is so sharp as to be a dangerous object.
To achieve the desired result, the master sharpener uses all kinds of tools, including general sandpaper, pocket knives and even a special $450 sharpening machine.“It depends on what the customer wants to use his/her pencil for,” he says. That determines the most appropriate pencil sharpening technique. Some customers buy pencils as inspirational symbols while others buy them because of their special memories of classic 2B pencils.
$15 to have a pencil sharpened is a bit expensive though, right？You’re not the only one who feels that way, and David’s unique business has really angered lots of people, who talk of inequality in America, saying it is so insane for the wealthy to pay $15 to sharpen a pencil. But others will say, “This is just our urge to put an end to the welfare state because new ideas arise along with the business.”
David admits his trade is sort of unusual. But there are those who actually value his service, as is proven by the over 500 orders he has gotten.
- How could David make money by sharpening pencils?
A. He invented new tools for the job.
B. He promoted his skill on his website.
C. He saved lots of time for other people.
D. He provided quality service for his customers.
25. From his words, we can infer that David Rees ________.
A. knows all kinds of pencil users
B. provides personalized services
C. values ideas behind the pencils
D. always writes in pencil
26. What does the underlined word “insane”(in Paragraph 5) mean?
A.Deliberate. B.Rewarding.
C.Unreasonable. D.Irresponsible.
27. What seems to be the author’s attitude to David Rees’ trade?
A.It’s a fancy service.
B.It has a good reputation.
C.It’s awfully expensive.
D.It wastes time and money.
C
In the most southern part of our planet, there’s a place that’s covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南极洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (恶劣的) place on the Earth.
As the world’s least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. In 1983, China joined the Antarctic Treaty (《南极条约》). The treaty made Antarctica a peaceful place for member countries to do scientific research. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.
Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen (速冻) food which can be heated easily is people’s daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Therefore, scientists often eat dried or canned vegetables.
Sleep is also troublesome. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”.
Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七级以上的) winds. Sometimes the wind is even stronger than a typhoon. It can easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.
Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists’ passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.
- From Paragraph 1, we learn that the Antarctica ______.
A. is covered with snow and ice.
B. rains heavily from time to time.
C. has little wind most of the time.
D. has sunshine during every night.
29. Scientists from China go to Antarctica to _____.
A. find out ways to control water pollution
B. research climate change and marine biology
C. grow plants and vegetables in special condition
D. stop the hunters from killing the marine biology
30. In order to sleep well in Antarctica, the scientists have to _____.
A. wear more clothes to keep warm
B. cover the windows with black cloth
C. connect research stations with ropes
D. eat more fried and canned vegetables
31. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. view of the Antarctica
B. exploring the Antarctica
C. how to survive in the Antarctica
D. climate changes of the Antarctica
D
What would you like to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? An astronaut? What do you need to do to achieve your dream job? Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want. We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.
But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder. Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity. So are the connections that you have more important than your education?
76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success. They believe that if you are privileged from birth, you are more likely to have a successful career, especially if your family is wealthy.
Even if you don’t have a privileged background, the people you know can still make a difference to your career. Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers. Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people, to communicate and build relationships. It’s a valuable skill.
But the survey also showed something quite interesting. Although most people believed that networks are more important than education, many people put their own career success down to talent, rather than background. 41% of the people said that their parents’ income had influenced their life, but at the same time, another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success.
So which is more important, what you know or who you know? It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections, the answer may be that both are very important.
32. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Nothing is impossible.
C. Hope for the best. D. No pains, no gains.
33. According to the government survey, the most important factor to help people move up the ladder is _________.
A.hard work B.education
C.social relationship D.social activity
34. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. 76% of the people think social relationship is most important.
B. 41% of the people believe parents’ income is most important.
C. 76% of the people think family background ranks first.
D. 41% of the people believe they gained their own success.
35. From the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article to _____.
A. stress the importance of education
B. challenge the traditional belief
C. make lots of social connections
D. encourage people to work hard
