Due to the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), the social distancing commands separated family members from each other in 2020. However, it also resulted in some lifelong friendships between people who would have otherwise never met.
The unlikely friendship between 99-year-old Mary and her two-year-old neighbor, Benjamin began in May 2020. The lockdown was particularly hard for Mary, who has been living alone since her husband passed away 37 years ago. Her other family members are in other states. The 99-year-old spent her days watching television game shows. Benjamin, a then one-year-old who lived next door, was also stuck at home and unable to play with kids of his age.
The unusual friendship developed gradually. At first, Mary would wave at Benjamin from her window whenever she saw the young boy in the yard. Then, she began adventuring outside to greet him in person. The routine eventually expanded to daily gatherings by the fence that separated the two homes. The unlikely pair even invented a socially distanced game that Mary calls cane (手杖) ball. “I came out of the house one morning, and he threw his ball toward the fence,” she said. “I got my cane, and I reached over the fence and hit the ball toward him, and he’d throw it back. That’s how it started.”
When the weather turned cold, the two were unable to meet in the yard as regularly. But Benjamin’s mother, Sarah, kept the friendship alive by often stopping by Mary’s house with the kid. The friendship between the two has developed even further since Mary got vaccinated (接种疫苗) earlier this year. The two give each other hi-fives across the fence and often sit outside Mary’s house. This spring, Mary and Benjamin gifted each other with their favorite.
Benjamin now goes to daycare three times a week. But he still regularly makes time to visit his best friend who he refers to as “Mimi”. “Friendship really knows no boundaries,” Sarah said. “Certainly, you wouldn’t guess that a 99-year-old and a 2-year-old would be friends, but they can be. And they both get a lot out of it.”
4. What can we learn about Mary and Benjamin from paragraph 2?
A. They became neighbors. B. They were stuck at home.
C. They had to live alone. D. They wandered around freely.
5. What promoted the friendship between Mary and Benjamin?
A. Waving each other. B. Chatting in the yard.
C. Watching game shows. D. Playing cane ball.
6. Why did Benjamin and his mother often stop by Mary’s house?
A. To bring her warm clothes. B. To sit outside Mary’s house.
C. To maintain the friendship. D. To exchange their gifts.
7. What message is delivered in the text?
A. The pandemic brings people heartwarming friendship.
B. The lockdown establishes some lifelong friendship.
C. A big age gap isn’t a barrier to developing a friendship.
D The shutdown has resulted in great inconvenience.

Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the master died while still working on his 10th Symphony (交响曲). Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.
Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020. He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task. They included music composer Walter and Dr. Ahmed, the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market.
Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music, and then, narrowed it to just Beethoven’s work. Meanwhile, Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10th Symphony.
The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition. To stay true to Beethoven’s original composition, Ahmed’s team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated musical note variations every evening. Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written. The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions. And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony!
The composition was firstly released on October 9, 2021. Not surprisingly, it caused some controversy (争议). Critics believe technology should not be used to replicate the human creative process. Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.
8. What is the purpose of the writer in writing paragraph 1?
A. To voice his greatest respect for Beethoven.
B. To compare traditional music and AI music.
C. To present the team of music experts’ hard work.
D. To introduce an innovative method to create music.
9. Which can be used to best describe the team’s work?
A. Inspiring. B. Steady. C. Challenging. D. Boring.
10. What does the underlined word “replicate” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Question. B. Copy. C. Direct. D. Speed.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Beethoven’s 10 Symphonies Is Eventually Staged
B. AI Helps Complete Beethoven’s Unfinished Symphony
C. A Team of Experts Conduct a Mission Impossible
D. A Controversial Way Successfully Interprets Beethoven’s Music
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the master died while still working on his 10th Symphony (交响曲). Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.(贝多芬无疑是最伟大的音乐家之一。他完成了722部音乐作品。不幸的是，这位大师在创作他的第十交响曲时去世了。现在，一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了这位艺术家的最终作品。)”和文章第二段“Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019.(马蒂亚斯博士在2019年首次提出了完成这一合成的想法。)”可知，第一段的主要目的是为了介绍一种创新的音乐创作方法。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Ahmed and his colleagues started the process… that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10th Symphony.( 艾哈迈德和他的同事们首先让人工智能软件熟悉大量的古典音乐，然后把范围缩小到贝多芬的作品。与此同时，沃尔特和他的团队试图解读这些草稿和一些详细说明贝多芬第十交响曲计划的音符。)”和文章第四段“The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition… And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony!( 然后，该团队开始了一项缓慢而仔细的工作，将未完成的乐曲中的音符输入人工智能软件。为了忠实于贝多芬的原创作品，艾哈迈德的团队每天晚上都给沃尔特发送数百个人工智能生成的音符变体。沃尔特会听他们的作品，然后选择他认为最接近艺术家作品的一篇。人工智能团队将添加音乐，并重新运行软件生成下一个建议。一件一件地，这个团队完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲!)”可知，这个团队的工作是充满挑战性的。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.( 艾哈迈德和他的团队同意他们的观点，并表示他们的人工智能软件并不是要取代人类——它只是一个帮助艺术家以新的方式表达自己的工具。)”可知，划线词所在的句子意为“批评者认为，技术不应该被用来复制人类的创造过程。”，replicate意为“复制”。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.(现在，一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了这位艺术家的最终作品。)”可知，文章主要介绍了人工智能帮助完成贝多芬未完成交响曲。故选B。
D
On August 8, 2021, the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its first assessment of climate science since 2013. The news was not good. The report stated that this past decade was the hottest in 125,000 years and that the atmospheric carbon levels are the highest in at least 2 million years. Glaciers are melting faster than any time in over 2,000 years, and ocean levels are rising at twice the rate since 2006.
At the current pace, the researchers expect global temperatures to rise by at least 1.5°, compared to pre-industrial levels, within the next 20 years. The temperature increases will result in significant changes to the planet’s water cycle. Areas that currently receive a lot of rain will get significantly more, while dry regions will become increasingly likely to droughts.
The IPCC’s findings come as no surprise to the millions of people worldwide currently feeling the impacts of climate-related disasters. America and many European countries are battling wildfires. Meanwhile, an unprecedented (史无前例的) week-long storm in July 2021 caused flash floods and mudslides in Western Europe. Climate change is even impacting the Earths coldest and most remote regions which experienced the first rainfall event in recorded history.
The situation may sound hopeless. However, many experts believe it is still not too late to turn things around, if we all act now. While governments need to do their share by introducing and obey stricter carbon emission laws, individuals can also help. Driving less, conserving water, and reducing electricity usage are some great ways to start. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle will help conserve natural resources and energy. It will also save you and your community. Be sure to start doing your part to save our beautiful home today!
12. Why did IPCC release its first assessment of climate science?
A. To appeal to people to reduce carbon levels.
B. To state the earth’s temperature hits a record high.
C. To inform readers climate change is severe.
D. To report ocean levels are rising higher.
13. What may lead to great changes to the planet’s water cycle?
A. The rise of global temperatures. B. The fast development of industry.
C. The heavy rainfall of the earth. D. The terrible droughts in dry regions.
14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Effects of climate change. B. Facts of rainfall disasters.
C. Losses caused by natural disasters. D. Weather phenomena in many regions.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Fighting against climate change is relatively simple.
B. Stricter carbon emission laws has been tightened up.
C. The author is opposed to consuming natural resources.
D. The author urges immediate action on climate change.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了预计在未来20年内，全球气温将比工业化前的水平至少上升1.5°，这会带来相关气候灾难，但如果我们现在都采取行动，扭转局面还为时不晚。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中的“The news was not good. The report stated that this past decade was the hottest in 125,000 years and that the atmospheric carbon levels are the highest in at least 2 million years. Glaciers are melting faster than any time in over 2,000 years, and ocean levels are rising at twice the rate since 2006. (这消息并不好。报告指出，过去十年是12.5万年来最热的十年，大气中的碳含量是至少200万年来最高的。冰川融化的速度比2000多年来的任何时候都要快，海平面上升的速度是2006年以来的两倍)”可知，IPCC发布的第一份气候科学评估报告里呈现的消息并不好，报告中指出的东西是为了向读者显示气候变化问题很严重。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“At the current pace, the researchers expect global temperatures to rise by at least 1.5°, compared to pre-industrial levels, within the next 20 years. The temperature increases will result in significant changes to the planet’s water cycle. (按照目前的速度，研究人员预计在未来20年内，全球气温将比工业化前的水平至少上升1.5°。温度升高将导致地球水循环发生重大变化)”可知，全球气温上升可能导致地球水循环的巨大变化。故选A项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。由第三段“The IPCC’s findings come as no surprise to the millions of people worldwide currently feeling the impacts of climate-related disasters. America and many European countries are battling wildfires. Meanwhile, an unprecedented (史无前例的) week-long storm in July 2021 caused flash floods and mudslides in Western Europe. Climate change is even impacting the Earths coldest and most remote regions which experienced the first rainfall event in recorded history. (IPCC的发现对于目前感受到气候相关灾难影响的全球数百万人来说并不奇怪。美国和许多欧洲国家正在与野火作斗争。与此同时，2021年7月一场前所未有的长达一周的风暴在西欧引发了山洪和泥石流。气候变化甚至正在影响地球上最冷和最偏远的地区，这些地区经历了有史以来第一次降雨事件)”可知，第三段主要讲气候变化（带来的消极）的影响。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段中的“However, many experts believe it is still not too late to turn things around, if we all act now. While governments need to do their share by introducing and obey stricter carbon emission laws, individuals can also help. (然而，许多专家认为，如果我们现在都采取行动，扭转局面还为时不晚。虽然政府需要通过引入和遵守更严格的碳排放法尽自己的一份力量，但个人也可以提供帮助)”和“Be sure to start doing your part to save our beautiful home today! (今天一定要为拯救我们美丽的家园尽自己的一份力量！)”可知，作者建议组织和个人现在就要对气候变化立即采取行动，拯救我们的家园。故选D项。

In Bangladesh，a lot of people have to live on flat and near the sea, but the cyclones (旋风) there bring terrible floods. In 1970, Cyclone Bhola killed at least 300,000 people. ____17____ In 1991, the even stronger cyclone Gorky hit the country. This time, people could use special school buildings as emergency shelters. Unfortunately, many women and children didn’t go to them and around 140,000 people drowned.
After this, villages set up groups of emergency volunteers and teachers had to talk to children every week about the things which they should do if there was a cyclone warning.
____18____ It came in 2007. Twelve hours before cyclone Sidr reached land, a Bangladeshi scientist in the USA calculated (计算) the exact areas of danger on a computer. The emergency volunteers in the villages spread the warning fast.
____19____ “You must come to the school now,” they shouted. “You won’t be safe if you stay here.” All the buildings in the village were destroyed in the cyclone except for the school shelter.
Not everyone in Bangladesh was so lucky. ____20____ But this was a much smaller number than in the big cyclones of the twentieth century. With modem technology, planning and education, we don’t have to lose huge numbers of lives in natural disasters.

【16题详解】
根据空后“But we can reduce the number of people who die in them（但是我们可以减少洪灾中遇难的数量）”可知，A项“Sadly, we can’t stop the disasters.（遗憾的是，我们无法停止灾难）”是前句的顺义承接，虽然我们无法停止灾难，但我们可以减少遇害人的数量，故选A项。
【17题详解】
根据空前“In 1970, Cyclone Bhola killed at least 300,000 people.（在1970年的Bhola飓风导致了至少30万人遇难）”可知，此空进一步解释说明此飓风，E项“It was one of the worst natural disasters of the twentieth century.（它是20世纪最严重的灾难）”符合，故选E项。
【18题详解】
根据空后“It came in 2007（它2007年到来）”可知，空后it知道空格处的名词。故D项“They didn’t have to wait many years for the next big cyclone.（对于下一次飓风，它们不用等很多年）”可知，此处it指代the next big cyclone，在它到达来的前12个小时，科学家已经计算出了它具体的位置，故D项符合，故选D项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My knees started shaking, yet my body froze; it felt as though my soul departed (离开) my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the name list posted on the wall of the locker room; my heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends’ names on that list but could not find mine. John, Bryce, Ro, I thought, everybody is on here except me. At that moment, I froze; I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team but I was not.
I was so convinced there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey coach, are you sure that the name list you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously.
“Yes. Sorry if you did not make it this year. There is always next year,” the coach replied without the slightest bit of regret.
I could feel the hot, bitter tears building in my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. As soon as I walked out, I saw my friends crowding into the locker room to look at the team list. I heard them shouting and laughing as I slowly walked away, every one of them jumping around with excitement after seeing that they made the team.
I felt dead inside，like nothing mattered. I trudged (步履艰难) through the rest of school; walking was such a burden that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day; everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other.
After school, as I walked to the parking lot to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot，celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being one of the only people in our friend group to not make the team.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右。
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I saw my father’s red car pull up near the school lot.

After almost a year of training, I tried out for my seventh-grade team.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I saw my father’s red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at me, played the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my gloomy face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it’s just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me…” I stammered. “Well, what are you going to do about it?” he asked. Surprised, I didn’t know what to say. Nobody was going to give me a spot on that team. I would have to earn it. I decided to train for my goal of making the team. After all, I thought, hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
After almost a year of training, I tried out for my seventh-grade team. “Step, dribble, shoot,” I said to myself, “You got this!” After the tryout, I felt confident and congratulated myself. Regardless of the outcome, I knew that I had worked hard and learned something about mental toughness. The next day, I found out I made the team; seeing my name printed in large bold letters felt as though all my dreams came true in one wondrous moment. The greater the effort, the sweeter the reward, and by making the team, I had officially made a turnaround.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), the social distancing commands separated family members from each other in 2020. However, it also resulted in some lifelong friendships between people who would have otherwise never met.
The unlikely friendship between 99-year-old Mary and her two-year-old neighbor, Benjamin began in May 2020. The lockdown was particularly hard for Mary, who has been living alone since her husband passed away 37 years ago. Her other family members are in other states. The 99-year-old spent her days watching television game shows. Benjamin, a then one-year-old who lived next door, was also stuck at home and unable to play with kids of his age.
The unusual friendship developed gradually. At first, Mary would wave at Benjamin from her window whenever she saw the young boy in the yard. Then, she began adventuring outside to greet him in person. The routine eventually expanded to daily gatherings by the fence that separated the two homes. The unlikely pair even invented a socially distanced game that Mary calls cane (手杖) ball. “I came out of the house one morning, and he threw his ball toward the fence,” she said. “I got my cane, and I reached over the fence and hit the ball toward him, and he’d throw it back. That’s how it started.”
When the weather turned cold, the two were unable to meet in the yard as regularly. But Benjamin’s mother, Sarah, kept the friendship alive by often stopping by Mary’s house with the kid. The friendship between the two has developed even further since Mary got vaccinated (接种疫苗) earlier this year. The two give each other hi-fives across the fence and often sit outside Mary’s house. This spring, Mary and Benjamin gifted each other with their favorite.
Benjamin now goes to daycare three times a week. But he still regularly makes time to visit his best friend who he refers to as “Mimi”. “Friendship really knows no boundaries,” Sarah said. “Certainly, you wouldn’t guess that a 99-year-old and a 2-year-old would be friends, but they can be. And they both get a lot out of it.”
4. What can we learn about Mary and Benjamin from paragraph 2?
A. They became neighbors. B. They were stuck at home.
C. They had to live alone. D. They wandered around freely.
5. What promoted the friendship between Mary and Benjamin?
A. Waving each other. B. Chatting in the yard.
C. Watching game shows. D. Playing cane ball.
6. Why did Benjamin and his mother often stop by Mary’s house?
A. To bring her warm clothes. B. To sit outside Mary’s house.
C. To maintain the friendship. D. To exchange their gifts.
7. What message is delivered in the text?
A. The pandemic brings people heartwarming friendship.
B. The lockdown establishes some lifelong friendship.
C. A big age gap isn’t a barrier to developing a friendship.
D The shutdown has resulted in great inconvenience.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了由于2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行，社交距离命令在2020年让家庭成员分开。然而，它也为那些本来不可能相遇的人带来了终身的友谊。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The lockdown was particularly hard for Mary, who has been living alone since her husband passed away 37 years ago.(封锁对玛丽来说尤其艰难，自从37年前丈夫去世后，她一直独自生活)”和“Benjamin, a then one-year-old who lived next door, was also stuck at home and unable to play with kids of his age.( 当时一岁的本杰明住在隔壁，他也被困在家里，无法和同龄的孩子玩耍)”可知，我们可以从第二段了解到玛丽和本杰明，他们被困在家里。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The unlikely pair even invented a socially distanced game that Mary calls cane (手杖) ball.( 这对不太可能的搭档甚至发明了一种保持社交距离的游戏，玛丽称其为藤球)”可知，打藤球促进了玛丽和本杰明之间的友谊。故选D。

Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the master died while still working on his 10th Symphony (交响曲). Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.
Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020. He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task. They included music composer Walter and Dr. Ahmed, the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market.
Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music, and then, narrowed it to just Beethoven’s work. Meanwhile, Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10th Symphony.
The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition. To stay true to Beethoven’s original composition, Ahmed’s team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated musical note variations every evening. Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written. The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions. And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony!
The composition was firstly released on October 9, 2021. Not surprisingly, it caused some controversy (争议). Critics believe technology should not be used to replicate the human creative process. Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.
8. What is the purpose of the writer in writing paragraph 1?
A. To voice his greatest respect for Beethoven.
B. To compare traditional music and AI music.
C. To present the team of music experts’ hard work.
D. To introduce an innovative method to create music.
9. Which can be used to best describe the team’s work?
A. Inspiring. B. Steady. C. Challenging. D. Boring.
10. What does the underlined word “replicate” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Question. B. Copy. C. Direct. D. Speed.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Beethoven’s 10 Symphonies Is Eventually Staged
B. AI Helps Complete Beethoven’s Unfinished Symphony
C. A Team of Experts Conduct a Mission Impossible
D. A Controversial Way Successfully Interprets Beethoven’s Music
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. B

【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.( 艾哈迈德和他的团队同意他们的观点，并表示他们的人工智能软件并不是要取代人类——它只是一个帮助艺术家以新的方式表达自己的工具。)”可知，划线词所在的句子意为“批评者认为，技术不应该被用来复制人类的创造过程。”，replicate意为“复制”。故选B。
【11题详解】

On August 8, 2021, the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its first assessment of climate science since 2013. The news was not good. The report stated that this past decade was the hottest in 125,000 years and that the atmospheric carbon levels are the highest in at least 2 million years. Glaciers are melting faster than any time in over 2,000 years, and ocean levels are rising at twice the rate since 2006.
At the current pace, the researchers expect global temperatures to rise by at least 1.5°, compared to pre-industrial levels, within the next 20 years. The temperature increases will result in significant changes to the planet’s water cycle. Areas that currently receive a lot of rain will get significantly more, while dry regions will become increasingly likely to droughts.
The IPCC’s findings come as no surprise to the millions of people worldwide currently feeling the impacts of climate-related disasters. America and many European countries are battling wildfires. Meanwhile, an unprecedented (史无前例的) week-long storm in July 2021 caused flash floods and mudslides in Western Europe. Climate change is even impacting the Earths coldest and most remote regions which experienced the first rainfall event in recorded history.
The situation may sound hopeless. However, many experts believe it is still not too late to turn things around, if we all act now. While governments need to do their share by introducing and obey stricter carbon emission laws, individuals can also help. Driving less, conserving water, and reducing electricity usage are some great ways to start. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle will help conserve natural resources and energy. It will also save you and your community. Be sure to start doing your part to save our beautiful home today!
12. Why did IPCC release its first assessment of climate science?
A. To appeal to people to reduce carbon levels.
B. To state the earth’s temperature hits a record high.
C. To inform readers climate change is severe.
D. To report ocean levels are rising higher.
13. What may lead to great changes to the planet’s water cycle?
A. The rise of global temperatures. B. The fast development of industry.
C. The heavy rainfall of the earth. D. The terrible droughts in dry regions.
14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Effects of climate change. B. Facts of rainfall disasters.
C. Losses caused by natural disasters. D. Weather phenomena in many regions.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Fighting against climate change is relatively simple.
B. Stricter carbon emission laws has been tightened up.
C. The author is opposed to consuming natural resources.
D. The author urges immediate action on climate change.

【12题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段中的“The news was not good. The report stated that this past decade was the hottest in 125,000 years and that the atmospheric carbon levels are the highest in at least 2 million years. Glaciers are melting faster than any time in over 2,000 years, and ocean levels are rising at twice the rate since 2006. (这消息并不好。报告指出，过去十年是12.5万年来最热的十年，大气中的碳含量是至少200万年来最高的。冰川融化的速度比2000多年来的任何时候都要快，海平面上升的速度是2006年以来的两倍)”可知，IPCC发布的第一份气候科学评估报告里呈现的消息并不好，报告中指出的东西是为了向读者显示气候变化问题很严重。故选C项。
【13题详解】

Climate change is even impacting the Earths coldest and most remote regions which experienced the first rainfall event in recorded history. (IPCC的发现对于目前感受到气候相关灾难影响的全球数百万人来说并不奇怪。美国和许多欧洲国家正在与野火作斗争。与此同时，2021年7月一场前所未有的长达一周的风暴在西欧引发了山洪和泥石流。气候变化甚至正在影响地球上最冷和最偏远的地区，这些地区经历了有史以来第一次降雨事件)”可知，第三段主要讲气候变化（带来的消极）的影响。故选A项。

(今天一定要为拯救我们美丽的家园尽自己的一份力量！)”可知，作者建议组织和个人现在就要对气候变化立即采取行动，拯救我们的家园。故选D项。

【18题详解】
根据空后“It came in 2007（它2007年到来）”可知，空后it知道空格处的名词。故D项“They didn’t have to wait many years for the next big cyclone.（对于下一次飓风，它们不用等很多年）”可知，此处it指代the next big cyclone，在它到达来的前12个小时，科学家已经计算出了它具体的位置，故D项符合，故选D项。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My knees started shaking, yet my body froze; it felt as though my soul departed (离开) my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the name list posted on the wall of the locker room; my heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends’ names on that list but could not find mine. John, Bryce, Ro, I thought, everybody is on here except me. At that moment, I froze; I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team but I was not.
I was so convinced there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey coach, are you sure that the name list you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously.
“Yes. Sorry if you did not make it this year. There is always next year,” the coach replied without the slightest bit of regret.
I could feel the hot, bitter tears building in my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. As soon as I walked out, I saw my friends crowding into the locker room to look at the team list. I heard them shouting and laughing as I slowly walked away, every one of them jumping around with excitement after seeing that they made the team.
I felt dead inside，like nothing mattered. I trudged (步履艰难) through the rest of school; walking was such a burden that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day; everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other.
After school, as I walked to the parking lot to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot，celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being one of the only people in our friend group to not make the team.

【答案】I saw my father’s red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at me, played the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my gloomy face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it’s just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me…” I stammered. “Well, what are you going to do about it?” he asked. Surprised, I didn’t know what to say. Nobody was going to give me a spot on that team. I would have to earn it. I decided to train for my goal of making the team. After all, I thought, hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
After almost a year of training, I tried out for my seventh-grade team. “Step, dribble, shoot,” I said to myself, “You got this!” After the tryout, I felt confident and congratulated myself. Regardless of the outcome, I knew that I had worked hard and learned something about mental toughness. The next day, I found out I made the team; seeing my name printed in large bold letters felt as though all my dreams came true in one wondrous moment. The greater the effort, the sweeter the reward, and by making the team, I had officially made a turnaround.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在篮球队大名单落选之后心情很低落，放学后，当作者走到停车场去接人时，看到自己所有的朋友都聚集在停车场后面，庆祝和开玩笑。为了避开他们，作者在学校的一边绕道而行，尽量不去想自己是朋友圈里唯一一个没能加入的人。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“我看见爸爸的红色轿车停在学校停车场附近。”可知，第一段可描写作者和爸爸的对话以及作者的打算。
②由第二段首句内容“经过将近一年的训练，我参加了七年级队的选拔。”可知，第二段可描写作者经过努力，最终进了篮球队，作者意识到付出的努力越大，得到的回报就越丰厚。
2.续写线索：爸爸询问发生了什么——作者告知原因——爸爸询问作者的打算——作者惊讶自己无法回答——决定努力训练——选拔结束，感到自信——实现梦想
