学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________
一、阅读理解
Climate Science fiction (cli-fi) authors have been exploring the impact of weather-gone-wild for decades. Here are a few of them that still ring true today.
The Crystal World
J. G. Ballard is often considered the godfather of cli-fi. The famous British author’s novels of the 1960s, including The Burning World, The Drowned World and The Wind From Nowhere, imagine terrible climate-based disasters.
But they’re all too gentle in nature compared with his first truly mature work, The Crystal World. In a sense, The Crystal World is a horror novel-instead of the horror happening to a person, it’s happening to Earth.
Hothouse
Brian Aldiss’ Hothouse — a series of short stories published in 1962 — remains one of the most extreme visions of climate change. In it, Earth of the furthest future has changed so completely that it’s nearly unrecognizable. Humans struggle to survive in this strange world of heat waves — which, admittedly, isn’t very scientifically possible but is all the more wonderful because of Aldiss’ unbound imagination.
The Ice Schooner
The climate change in Michael Moorcock’s 1969 novel The Ice Schooner is man-made in a different way: It’s caused by a long, extreme winter that settles around Earth following a nuclear war. The book presents a world where a new ice age has resulted in a frozen planet. There’s nothing scientific about Moorcock’s setting. But it does warn, in its own way, of the disastrous climate change that humanity can bring to the world.
Ice
Anna Kavan’s Ice, like Ballard’s The Crystal World, is filled with far more symbolism than the typical early cli-fi novel. In the freezing environment of Kavan’s 1967 book, a nuclear war has led to massive global climate change that has turned the world into another Siberia.
1．Which book contains the most frightening scenes?
A．The Burning World. B．The Drowned World.
C．The Crystal World. D．The Wind From Nowhere.
2．Who wrote Hothouse?
A．Anna Kavan. B．Brian Aldiss.
C．J. G. Ballard. D．Michael Moorcock.
3．What do the last two novels have in common?
A．They are based on scientific evidence. B．They were published in the same year.
C．They are about heat waves in the world. D．They imagine the results of a nuclear war.
【答案】1．C
2．B
3．D

3．
细节理解题。根据 The Ice Schooner部分“It’s caused by a long, extreme winter that settles around Earth following a nuclear war.(它是由核战争后在地球周围定居的漫长而极端的冬天造成的。)”以及Ice部分“In the freezing environment of Kavan’s 1967 book, a nuclear war has led to massive global climate change that has turned the world into another Siberia.(在卡万1967年书中的寒冷环境中，一场核战争导致了大规模的全球气候变化，把世界变成了另一个西伯利亚。)”可知，这两本书都想象了核战争带来的后果。故选D项。
Back in September, I took a small team from Motor Trend to see the Tesla Cybertruck. Tesla told us that we were the first outsiders, and the only newspaper to see the vehicle. So it’s fun for me to disclose how some of us reacted after seeing it for the first time.
Christian Seabaugh, Kim Reynolds, Mark Williams, Sean Holman, and I spent hours with the Tesla’s design team on a warm Friday afternoon, at Tesla’s design studio in Hawthorne, California.
When we left the studio and walked back to our car at the parking lot, everyone was quiet, lost in thought. We remained absolutely silent until we pulled out onto a busy street and saw regular cars and trucks, in traffic.
I was the first one to break the ice, “Can you imagine how crazy it will look when that truck is on the road, with regular cars?”
And with that, my colleagues unburdened themselves. Here are some choice thoughts.
“As a traditional truck person, I was dumbstruck when I walked in. What is that? Origami? A military vehicle or SUV? I wonder how will you see out of it? Wait, where’s the bed? I am still too surprised to think. I need a shower, a cigarette or a nap, in no particular order,” said Sean Holman.
“My first thought after entering the design studio was that the only thing missing in the space was anything remotely looking like what I would consider a Tesla truck. Nothing else but the military-styled video game concept in the center of the floor,” said Mark Williams.
“I’m impressed by how far Tesla was willing to go away from their existing design language. It is a high-risk design. It will dominate the conversation when it appears, and get good presale orders, but I wonder for how long?” said Kim Reynolds.
”When I first looked at the Tesla truck, my first thought was that I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Are they images!? Wow, it’s really beautiful,” said Christian Seabaugh.
What is your reaction to Tesla’s Cybertruck? Love it? Hate it? Will you buy it?
4．Which of the following best explains “dumbstruck” underlined in paragraph 6?
A．Shocked. B．Scared. C．Worried D．Excited.
5．What does the Tesla Cybertruck most probably look like?
A．An ugly toy. B．A military car.
C．A traditional truck. D．A foldable bed.
6．What does Christian Seabaugh think of the truck?
A．Amazing. B．Ugly. C．Unpractical. D．Powerful.
7．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．The Investment Risks in Tesla B．Our First Impressions of Cybertruck
C．My First Visit to Tesla’s Design Studio D．The Design Problems With Cybertruck
【答案】4．A
5．B
6．A
7．B

6．
细节理解题。根据第九段中“Wow, it’s really beautiful(哇，真漂亮)”可知，Christian Seabaugh认为这车真的很酷。故选A。
7．
主旨大意题。根据第一段“So it’s fun for me to disclose how some of us reacted after seeing it for the first time.(所以对我来说，揭示我们中的一些人在第一次看到它时的反应是很有趣的)”结合文章主要记述了四名记者首次参观Tesla公司的电动卡车后的不同感受，可知，B选项“我们对Tesla公司电动卡车的第一印象”最适合作标题。故选B。
Male cockatoos (风头鹦鹉) might be the rock stars of the animal kingdom — but unsurprisingly, they mainly just do it for the female.
The Australian bird is the only animal other than humans known how to make tools to compose music, a new study says. While other animals, such as chimpanzees, enjoy drumming on sticks and logs, they don’t make their own musical tools to do it.
Robert Heinsohn, a biologist at Australia National University, first witnessed the behavior in male cockatoos in northern Australia in 1997. Then, he spent the next two decades videotaping the shy animals to find out if their drumming was truly music — defined as regular beat production, repeated components, and, of course, personal style. By analyzing the beats made by the birds, he found that the sounds were highly predictable, just like human music that had a unique style. “The cockatoo was holding what looked like a stick and beating it on the tree branch, and every so often he would pause and let out either a long whistle or a sharp scream,” he said.
Importantly, male cockatoo primarily started drumming when they were around females — about 70 percent of the time, according to his research, published this week in the journal Science.
But Heinsohn did not found the females’ reactions to the males’ music and the male cockatoos didn’t dance, either, while they produced their own unique beats — an activity that usually goes hand in hand with music for many animals in love, such as swans, cranes and birds of paradise.
So Heinsohn thought such behavior may not be learned for courtship (求爱). “It seems that they are open to the pleasure of rhythm, just like humans,” he says. “As soon as one male works out a pleasing drumming rhythm that gets the approval from the females, they would stay together to enjoy it.”
8．What can we learn about the cockatoos?
A．The females are the only birds that can sing.
B．The males can make tools to compose music.
C．The females don’t enjoy listening to rock music.
D．The males dance to music when they are in love.
9．The music made by the male cockatoos __________.
A．was unpredictable B．was very sharp
C．had irregular beats D．had unique styles
10．What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．Why cockatoos make music. B．How cockatoos make tools.
C．When cockatoos make music. D．What are cockatoos’ reactions.
11．From which is the text probably taken?
A．A survey. B．A zoo guide book.
C．A news report. D．A lab test report.

这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了最新研究发现雄性凤头鹦鹉不但能制造乐器还能很纯粹地演奏与欣赏音乐。
8．
细节理解题。根据第二段“The Australian bird is the only animal other than humans known how to make tools to compose music, a new study says.(一项新的研究表明，这种澳大利亚鸟是除人类之外唯一知道如何制作工具来作曲的动物)”可知，雄性风头鹦鹉可以制作工具来作曲。故选B。
9．
细节理解题。根据第三段“By analyzing the beats made by the birds, he found that the sounds were highly predictable, just like human music that had a unique style.(通过分析鸟类发出的节奏，他发现这些声音是高度可预测的，就像人类的音乐有独特的风格一样)”可知，雄性鹦鹉奏出的音乐具有自己独特的风格。故选D。
10．
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“So Heinsohn thought such behavior may not be learned for courtship (求爱)(因此，海因索恩认为这种行为可能不是为了求偶而习得的)”可知，本段主要是推测鹦鹉奏乐的原因：鹦鹉奏乐主要是为了娱乐，而不是为了求偶。故选A。
11．
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第四段“Importantly, male cockatoo primarily started drumming when they were around females — about 70 percent of the time, according to his research, published this week in the journal Science.(重要的是，根据他本周发表在《科学》(Science)杂志上的研究，雄性凤头鹦鹉主要是在与雌性鹦鹉在一起时开始打鼓的——大约70%的时间是这样)”可知，本文主要是用比较大众的语言介绍了《科学》杂志最新发表的一篇科研论文，故很可能是选自新闻报道。故选C。
This week, both the US and the European Union (EU) announced their goals for reducing carbon dioxide. The EU’s newly approved goal is 55% below 1990 levels and the new US goal is 50% to 52% below 2005 levels.
Their goals sound very ambitious. However, the numbers aren’t quite what they seem, depending on what baseline year for those cuts. If you convert (换算) the European goal to the American-preferred 2005 baseline, it translates to 51% below 2005 levels. But if you compare them using Europe’s preferred 1990 as the baseline, the 50% minimum US cut is only 41%, far shy of the 55% EU goal. If you compare the numbers to 2019, the minimum the US would be cutting is about 40% from today’s level and the EU only 35%.
Why different baselines?
The idea behind different baselines goes back to the climate talks in 2009. Since developed countries have already put lots of carbon pollution into the air and they still wanted developing nations that were counting on fossil fuels for economic development to abandon the dirtier fuels, a solution was struck for the 2015 Paris agreement that allowed nations to voluntarily choose their own goals suitable to each country. Those nationally designed goals also included countries choosing their own baseline years. Naturally, countries tend to choose years in which they peaked (达峰) or near peaked on carbon emissions. For example, Europe, which took early action after the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, chose to keep that agreement’s 1990 baseline. This way, Europe gets credit for acting early.
“However, we should not just look at their numbers,” said Professor Nate Hultman from University of Maryland. The US goal includes methane (甲烷) and HFCs (氟烷) that trap more heat but don’t last as long as carbon dioxide. He said including those in the goals allows the US to pick low-hanging fruit to better reach its goal.
“Reducing methane and HFCs gets results more quickly than cutting carbon dioxide. But cutting them just buys us a little more time,” Nate said.
12．What can we know about the goals for reducing carbon dioxide?
A．They can be very misleading. B．They are just influenced by baselines.
C．They can be compared directly. D．They are too complex to be compared.
13．When did the US most probably peak or near peak on carbon emissions?
A．In 1990. B．In1997. C．In 2005. D．In 2019.
14．What does the underlined word “those” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A．The US's and EU's goals. B．Methane and HFCs.
C．Carbon dioxide and HFCs. D．The different baselines.
15．How did Nate Hultman most probably feel about the US’s goal?
A．Disappointed. B．Satisfied. C．Unconcerned. D．Overjoyed.
【答案】12．A
13．C
14．B

本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了美国及欧盟本周相继公布了各自的温室气体减排目标。表面看来十分接近的数字，却因为各自的减排基线及减排气体的种类不同而可能呈现出十分不同的解读结果及减排效果。
12．
细节理解题。根据第二段“However, the numbers aren’t quite what they seem, depending on what baseline year for those cuts.(然而，这些数字并不完全像看上去的那样，这取决于削减的基准年份)”可知，这些看来十分接近的数字，却因为减排基线不同而误导人。由此可知，减少二氧化碳的目标可能非常具有误导性。故选A。
13．
推理判断题。根据第一段“…and the new US goal is 50% to 52% below 2005 levels.(……美国的新目标是在2005年的基础上减少50%到52%)”及第四段“Naturally, countries tend to choose years in which they peaked (达峰) or near peaked on carbon emissions.(自然，各国倾向于选择碳排放达到或接近峰值的年份)”可推断，在2005年美国的温室气体排放很可能已经或接近达峰，因此美国选了这个年份作减排基线。故选C。
14．
词句猜测题。根据画线词前“The US goal includes methane (甲烷) and HFCs (氟烷) that trap more heat but don’t last as long as carbon dioxide.(美国的目标包括甲烷和氢氟碳化合物，它们能吸收更多热量，但不会像二氧化碳那样持续太久)”可知，画线词those指的是methane及HFCs这两种温室气体。故选B。
15．
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“He said including those in the goals allows the US to pick low-hanging fruit to better reach its goal.(他说，将这些纳入目标可以让美国更好地实现目标)”及最后一段““Reducing methane and HFCs gets results more quickly than cutting carbon dioxide. But cutting them just buys us a little more time,” Nate said.(“减少甲烷和氢氟碳化合物的效果比减少二氧化碳更快。但砍掉它们只是为我们多争取了一点时间。”Nate说)”可推断，Nate Hultman对美国有点失望，因为美国在钻空子，专挑简单的做，追求的是短期减排目标。故选A。

17．
根据上文“Most managers will agree that dressing too trendy and flashy can be a bad thing. (大多数经理都会同意，过于时尚和浮华的着装可能是一件坏事)”可知，在工作场合穿得过于时尚和浮华并非好事。由此推知，工作场合的着装应简单大方。C项“因此，让你的着装保持经典和优雅”符合题意。故选C。
18．
空处位于段末，应承接上文。根据上文“Even the nicest suit, shirt and tie can look out of place if you forget to pay attention to the little details such as shoes, socks and belt.

(如果你忘记注意鞋子、袜子和皮带等小细节，即使是最好的西装、衬衫和领带也会显得不协调。确保你的袜子和裤子相配，腰带和鞋子的颜色相配)”可知，上文指出在着装方面要注意细节。由此推知，空处继续陈述其他需要注意的细节。G项“除了你的衣服，还要确保修建指甲和梳理头发”符合题意，是对上文的补充说明。故选G。
19．
根据上文“After each day, hang the suit on a hanger in a well-aired area. (每天结束后，把衣服挂在通风良好的地方)”推知，下文陈述这样做的目的：让衣服看起来整洁且没有异味。E项“衣服会再次变得直挺，气味也会消失”符合题意。故选E。
20．
空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Casual Friday does not mean that you can dress like you do on vacation. It is always better to slightly overdress than showing up too casual. (便装星期五并不意味着你可以穿得像度假时一样。稍微穿得正式一点总比穿得太随便要好)”可知，本段提醒我们即使星期五可以穿便装，也不要穿得太随意。A项“糟糕的周五便装”可以作为本段小标题。故选A。

本文是一篇记叙文。不惑之年的Harris在高中时也和其他同学一样一门心思想上大学。几十年后，她成了电工，且收入不错，她说她希望自己在高中时就找到了这条道路。
41．
考查代词。句意：每个人，包括她自己，都只想上大学。结合语境可知，此处指Harris“她自己”应用反身代词herself。故填herself。
42．
考查介词。句意：44岁的哈里斯回忆说：“高中时，我们太专注于上大学了。”结合句意表示“专注于……”可知短语为be focused on/upon。故填on/upon。
43．
考查非谓语动词。句意：在做了几十个不同的工作之后，哈里斯报名参加了一个课程，目的是让她在建筑行业找到工作。分析句子结构可知，design在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语course构成被动关系，故用过去分词。故填designed。
44．
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：她偶尔会在一个新的建筑工地工作，目前的工作是在地板下铺设低压电线，连接空调。根据前一句Now she’s可知为一般现在时，主语为she，故谓语用第三人称单数形式。故填spends。
45．
考查定语从句。句意：她偶尔会在一个新的建筑工地工作，目前的工作是在地板下铺设低压电线，连接空调。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词site，故此处用“介词+which”作地点状语。故填which。
46．
考查非谓语动词。句意：她偶尔会在一个新的建筑工地工作，目前的工作是在地板下铺设低压电线，连接空调。分析句子结构可知，connect在句中应用非谓语动词形式，此处用所给动词的不定式作目的状语。故填to connect。
47．
考查形容词。句意：她全职工作每年每小时的收入约为10万美元。作income的定语，故用所给名词的形容词形式hourly。故填hourly。
48．
考查虚拟语气。句意：Harris说她希望自己能在读高中时就发现这条路。表示对过去发生的事的遗憾，从句应用过去完成时。故填had found。
49．
考查冠词。句意：我认为，对于技术工人以及短期培训实际上可以提供与大学学位相同的生活方式，人们一直存在很大的误解。结合句意表示“相同的”可知短语为the same。故填the。
50．
考查名词。句意：但是在一天结束的时候，你回头看，你可以看到你每天都在完成你前一天做的事情。作宾语，应用名词accomplishment，此处为特指。故填accomplishment。

2.考查冠词。句意：我对英语感兴趣，将来想成为一名口译员。interpreter是发音以元音音素开头的单词，应用冠词an。故a改为an。
3.考查时态。句意：自然，学好英语对我来说很重要。描述目前的情况应用一般现在时。故was改为is。
4.考查最高级。句意：众所周知，记忆词汇是学习语言中最困难的部分之一。hardest已经为形容词最高级形式，前面不需要most。故删除most。
