A

[2022·郑州市高三质检]Praised as “Edgar Snow in the New Era”， British journalist Andrew Moody devoted himself to accurately reporting on China for over a decade. Born in Nottinghamshire in September, 1960, Moody's interest in journalism began at age 15. What came next was a storied career that would last 4 decades. A visit to Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, in 1997 turned his attention to China. During that visit, he was surprised by the great changes that had taken place in China. Moody began working for China Daily in 2008. In his 13 years at the paper, he published more than 1 million words in the newspaper group's different publications.

“These stories aim to explain the strategies (策略) and aims of the Chinese government to a wider audience, and also look at the challenges and difficulties it faces，” Moody wrote. “I also attach importance to issues which go largely ignored in the mainstream Western media, which often fail to provide a full or true image (形象) of China.”

To better cover China, Moody read a lot. In his Beijing apartment, there were more than 160 books about the nation. Su Qiang, a China Daily editor who worked with Moody for 8 years, said, “He read all the books that top experts had written about China, and he closely followed how the world viewed China.” Moody also learned to speak putonghua, traveled to most provinces and autonomous regions throughout China and exposed himself to the Chinese way of life.

“China is moving into a new era in which it is much more confident about its position and status in the world. I have a definite sense of history in the making，” said Moody. He hoped that he could be one of the witnesses and reporters of this historic time.

“So even when he was suffering from a serious disease, Moody still soldiered on. All he cared about was whether he could keep on working，” said Wang Liping, Moody's attending doctor.

When he passed away in June, 2021, many people were sad. “His death will be a huge loss to those who are working hard on the dialogue between China and the outside world，” said Kerry Brown, a professor of Chinese Studies at King's College London.

[2022·石家庄市高三质检]At just 19 years old, Akiša Peters teaches at a college. He specializes in a language that is thousands of years old, the Dakota language, spoken by the Dakota people.

“The Dakota language is ‘the most important aspect’ of Dakota culture. Without it, our Dakota culture would no longer exist，” Peters claimed. “I was lucky to grow up around many first­language Dakota speakers. But now the elderly continually passed away and at the end of their lives, they just wanted to know their families would continue to have the language. One of the problems our people have is finding ways to get at­length and consistent exposure to the language.”

Aside from giving instruction at the college level, Peters uses social media to share videos that integrate humor, culture, and basic­level conversation to help teach Dakota. In his free time, he visits Dakota elders. He also started an online group of the youth to converse and share the knowledge of the language in a safe and supportive space.

Akiša Peters wants to tell the youth that if they want to learn their own language, sit with their elders and learn from them. Endless vocabulary sheets could discourage them from learning. Standards created by non­speakers could also do that. “Within the next decade, I assume, I, my colleagues, and other Dakota­learning relatives will have children and start a new generation of Dakota. I also hope my brothers and sisters will take the path we laid out for them and continue to learn and speak Dakota. On my reservation there are numerous young people working on the comeback of the language. I'm hopeful because I'm definitely not alone，” Akiša Peters told Teen Vogue.

5．Why does Akiša Peters teach the Dakota language?

A．To enrich his experience.

B．To record its written form.

C．To prevent it dying out.

D．To make it known globally.

6．What can we say about Akiša Peters according to Paragraph 3?

A．Learned.    B．Creative.

C．Approachable.    D．Cooperative.

7．What does Akiša Peters expect the young people to do?

A．Deal with vocabulary sheets.

B．Sustain the given standards.

C．Communicate with their elders.

D．Learn from their teachers.

8．Which section of a website is the text probably taken from?

A．Research.    B．Business.

C．Fashion.    D．Culture.

[2022·保定市高三模拟]A new UN report is set to reveal that up to 1 million species face extinction because of human actions. We are causing a mass extinction event, and critically we cannot separate one environmental crisis from another. Biodiversity loss cannot be separated from climate change, or from human population growth or pollution or plastics in our oceans. These challenges are all interconnected. If we continue to consider these problems separately, solutions will continue to emerge far too slowly.

The connections between these crises make solutions seem all too difficult. But in fact, a solution to one problem will inevitably make a positive impact on many others too. More than 28，000 people are dying because of polluted air each year in Britain and air pollution is linked to psychotic (精神病的) experiences and a reduction in educational achievement. It's not rocket science: improving air quality in our cities by cutting polluting vehicles will bring a vast range of benefits to human health, and help deal with climate change too.

George Monbiot advocates taking land out of food production and rewilding it. This will not only boost biodiversity enormously but will also deal with global warming because those rewilded, rewetted lands will capture significantly more carbon. If these lands are also opened up for us to enjoy, our physical and mental health will flourish. Thus we repair the ecology of destruction.

It can be difficult to know what we can do as individuals—but at least we all possess an increased understanding of how farming, consumption and energy­use impact upon the planet. If everyone makes a small change, that will make a difference to our planet.

We're not struggling to find ideas to solve problems either globally or locally. It's action that we're lacking, in government and beyond, as individuals and together as a species. If we act now we may be surprised at how these seemingly vast problems decrease quicker than we imagine.

9．What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?

A．The age of mass extinction has arrived.

B．Environmental crises are interrelated.

C．Humans are to blame for mass extinction.

D．Environmental crises should be solved separately.

10．Why are rewilded lands beneficial to controlling global warming?

A．They attract tourists.

B．They provide habitat for birds.

C．They take in carbon.

D．They boost biodiversity.

11．What does the author call on people to do?

A．Take action now.

B．Find a better idea.

C．Cooperate with others.

D．Turn to the government.

12．Where does this text probably come from?

A．A news report.

B．A scientific journal.

C．A climate handbook.

D．A biology textbook.
