Cmmercial airlines alne cntribute arund 3 percent f ttal glbal carbn emissins. But the industry is actively lking fr green slutins in the frm f sustainable (可持续发展的) airline fuel, and in ne case, that fuel may have had a previus life as yur husehld fd waste. In a study released this week in the Prceedings f the Natinal Academy f Sciences, researchers detail a methd f transfrming fd waste int sustainable airline fuel.
Bimass (生物质), such as animal and fd waste, can be transfrmed int bifuels, which are renewable liquid fuels made frm rganic matter. Derek Vardn, a senir research engineer at the Natinal Renewable Energy Labratry (NREL), says that their fuel wrked as a mixture f 90 percent cnventinal petrl airline fuel and 10 percent alternative airline fuel required by the industry currently. They als shw they culd push it t a 70/30 mixture with mre time and testing available.
Majr cmpanies are eager t participate in sustainable airline fuel because sme sustainable slutins, such as battery-perated cmmercial planes, just aren’t pssible yet with current battery technlgy. A battery-pwered plane wuld be t heavy t fly lng distances, s fuel that wrks in the same way as the fuel we have is a simpler way t trade ut emissin-heavy fssil fuels.
Vardn says that because the wet waste used in the prcess wuld nrmally g t a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and break dwn t release greenhuse gases, the prcess f making and using sustainable airline fuel culd actually have a negative carbn ftprint when scaled up.
Cmmercial airlines are als n bard t find an affrdable and sustainable slutin t the carbn-intensive prcess f air travel. Airlines are lking t hit aggressive sustainability gals by 2050, including decreasing net carbn dixide emissins by 50 percent.
12、Which f the fllwing is used fr sustainable airline pwer?
A. Bimass.B. Liquid fuel.C. Battery pwer.D. Fssil fuel.
13、Why are cmmercial planes still fuel-pwered?
A. Bifuel prves less cstly and easier t prduce.
B. It’s cnvenient t create the prper fuel mixture.
C. Bifuel is envirnmentally friendly and sustainable.
D. Fuel-pwered planes are likely t travel lighter and farther.
14、What des the underlined phrase “n bard” in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Taking ff.B. Participating in.
C. Hlding a meeting.D. Appearing n stage.
15、Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Alternative Energy t Fssil Fuel
B. Hw t Get Fssil Fuel Sustainable
C. Changing Fd Waste int Airplane Fuel

32、答案：①arrival②falls③significantly④where⑤T prevent⑥was thught⑦turning⑧a⑨frm⑩mre
解析：这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国传统的二十四节气之一——寒露。
①考查名词。句意：随着气温的持续下降，金色的秋天似乎即将结束，预示着寒露时节的到来。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填名词作宾语，arrive的名词形式为arrival，不可数。故填arrival。
②考查时态和主谓一致。句意：Cld Dew，就是中文的“寒露”，在今年开始于10月8日，结束于10月23日。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中与ends并列作谓语，此处叙述的是客观事实，句子应用一般现在时，且主语Cld Dew为第三人称单数。所以应填falls。故填falls。
③考查副词。句意：在寒露期间，气温明显下降，太阳不能彻底到达深水区。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填副词修饰drp，significant的副词形式为significantly。故填significantly。
④考查定语从句。句意：因此，鱼在浅水区游，这里水温相对较高，使寒露成为撒网或钓鱼的最佳季节。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填非限制性定语从句的引导词，先行词为shallw waters，且从句中缺少地点状语，所以应填where。故填where。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意：为了防止秋燥，中国许多地区都有喝菊花酒的习俗。分析句子结构以及句意可知，空格处应填动词不定式作目的状语，所以应填t prevent，放句首时首字母大写。故填T prevent。
⑥考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：在古代，喝菊花酿的酒被认为可以永葆青春。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中作谓语，且与主语drinking wine made with chrysanthemums之间的关系为被动；根据所给时间状语In ancient times可知，应用一般过去时，且动名词短语作主语时谓语动词用单数，所以应填was thught。故填was thught。
⑦考查非谓语动词。句意：枫叶变红，绚丽的色彩欢迎大自然的爱好者。分析句子结构可知，此处考查“with+宾语十宾语补足语”的复合结构，宾语leaves与turn之间的关系为主动，所以应填turning。故填turning。
⑧考查冠词。句意：重阳节那天，通常在寒露前后，人们经常爬上长着茱萸的山，茱萸是一种植物。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填冠词，结合句意可知，此处表示泛指，意为“一种植物”，所以应用不定冠词，且kind的首字母发音为辅音音素，所以应填a。故填a。
⑨考查介词。句意：这个习俗起源于东汉(公元25-220年)，目的是辟邪。date frm为固定搭配表示“追溯到，起源于”，所以应填frm。故填frm。
⑩考查副词比较级。句意：寒露让我们告别设计精美的金秋，同样也给了我们一个机会，让我们了解更多节气背后的文化。分析句子结构以及句意可知，空格处应填much的比较级mre表示“更多，进一步”。故填mre。

34、答案：
When Susan arrived there later, she lked at the children in surprise. They were playing with what Susan cnsidered bring happily. Seeing this, Susan understd that althugh there was n y-y, they culd als enjy themselves. Jim asked her t jin them playing tgether instantly he saw Susan. It was at that mment that Susan realized she had fcused t much n what she didn’t have but ignred what she had.
That night after the guests left, Susan sat alne in her rm. On her bed was the purple dress given t her as a birthday gift. She thught t herself, “It seems that the dress desn’t lk that bad. Actually, I like all the clthes Mm bught fr me.” She was srry fr having shuted at her mther. S she ran t Mms rm and said, “Srry, Mm. I shuld be satisfied with what I wn.” Hearing the wrds, her mther hugged her in arms tightly, happy and tuched abut Susan’s change.
解析：续写部分情节合理,语言流畅。第一段描述了孩子们玩得很开心,与原文最后一段中的 there is nthing interesting t play 形成强烈对比,呼应开头语中的 in surprise,并为后文 Susan有新的认知做铺垫。其中 she had fcused t much n what she didn't have but ignred what she had 与原文描述的 Susan固执地想要悠悠球以及第三段中的I dn't think there is anything interesting t play in the huse 呼应。第二段继续点题,描述妈妈送的紫色裙子,也是Susan 所拥有的东西之一,通过描述 Susan 的心理变化过程,并展现 Susan 向妈妈吐露心声的一幕,突显了文章的主题本文恰当运用了诸如 think t neself, jin sb in ding sth 等短语,以及时间状语从句(instantly he saw Susan)、强调句和多重宾语从句的复合句式(It was at that mment that Susan realized she had fcused t much n what she didn't have but ignred what she had.)与倒装句(On her bed was the purple dress given t her as a birthday gift.)等句式,使画面跃然纸上,实现了故事情节的多样化表达。

The rbt is als used t remtely interview individuals wh have tested psitive.
The cmpany that makes the rbts, Bstn Dynamics, says it’s trying t d a gd jb f explaining t the public and its custmers what Spt can and cannt d. “One f the mst difficult tasks is accurately explaining the state f the technlgy t peple wh have never had persnal experience with it,” said Michael Perry, vice president f the cmpany.

Cmmercial airlines alne cntribute arund 3 percent f ttal glbal carbn emissins. But the industry is actively lking fr green slutins in the frm f sustainable (可持续发展的) airline fuel, and in ne case, that fuel may have had a previus life as yur husehld fd waste. In a study released this week in the Prceedings f the Natinal Academy f Sciences, researchers detail a methd f transfrming fd waste int sustainable airline fuel.
Bimass (生物质), such as animal and fd waste, can be transfrmed int bifuels, which are renewable liquid fuels made frm rganic matter. Derek Vardn, a senir research engineer at the Natinal Renewable Energy Labratry (NREL), says that their fuel wrked as a mixture f 90 percent cnventinal petrl airline fuel and 10 percent alternative airline fuel required by the industry currently. They als shw they culd push it t a 70/30 mixture with mre time and testing available.
Majr cmpanies are eager t participate in sustainable airline fuel because sme sustainable slutins, such as battery-perated cmmercial planes, just aren’t pssible yet with current battery technlgy. A battery-pwered plane wuld be t heavy t fly lng distances, s fuel that wrks in the same way as the fuel we have is a simpler way t trade ut emissin-heavy fssil fuels.
Vardn says that because the wet waste used in the prcess wuld nrmally g t a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and break dwn t release greenhuse gases, the prcess f making and using sustainable airline fuel culd actually have a negative carbn ftprint when scaled up.
Cmmercial airlines are als n bard t find an affrdable and sustainable slutin t the carbn-intensive prcess f air travel. Airlines are lking t hit aggressive sustainability gals by 2050, including decreasing net carbn dixide emissins by 50 percent.
12、Which f the fllwing is used fr sustainable airline pwer?
A. Bimass.B. Liquid fuel.C. Battery pwer.D. Fssil fuel.
13、Why are cmmercial planes still fuel-pwered?
A. Bifuel prves less cstly and easier t prduce.
B. It’s cnvenient t create the prper fuel mixture.
C. Bifuel is envirnmentally friendly and sustainable.
D. Fuel-pwered planes are likely t travel lighter and farther.
14、What des the underlined phrase “n bard” in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Taking ff.B. Participating in.
C. Hlding a meeting.D. Appearing n stage.
15、Which can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Alternative Energy t Fssil Fuel
B. Hw t Get Fssil Fuel Sustainable
C. Changing Fd Waste int Airplane Fuel
D. Hw t Decrease Carbn Dixide Emissins

32、答案：①arrival②falls③significantly④where⑤T prevent⑥was thught⑦turning⑧a⑨frm⑩mre
解析：这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国传统的二十四节气之一——寒露。
①考查名词。句意：随着气温的持续下降，金色的秋天似乎即将结束，预示着寒露时节的到来。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填名词作宾语，arrive的名词形式为arrival，不可数。故填arrival。
②考查时态和主谓一致。句意：Cld Dew，就是中文的“寒露”，在今年开始于10月8日，结束于10月23日。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中与ends并列作谓语，此处叙述的是客观事实，句子应用一般现在时，且主语Cld Dew为第三人称单数。所以应填falls。故填falls。
③考查副词。句意：在寒露期间，气温明显下降，太阳不能彻底到达深水区。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填副词修饰drp，significant的副词形式为significantly。故填significantly。
④考查定语从句。句意：因此，鱼在浅水区游，这里水温相对较高，使寒露成为撒网或钓鱼的最佳季节。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填非限制性定语从句的引导词，先行词为shallw waters，且从句中缺少地点状语，所以应填where。故填where。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意：为了防止秋燥，中国许多地区都有喝菊花酒的习俗。分析句子结构以及句意可知，空格处应填动词不定式作目的状语，所以应填t prevent，放句首时首字母大写。故填T prevent。
⑥考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：在古代，喝菊花酿的酒被认为可以永葆青春。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中作谓语，且与主语drinking wine made with chrysanthemums之间的关系为被动；根据所给时间状语In ancient times可知，应用一般过去时，且动名词短语作主语时谓语动词用单数，所以应填was thught。故填was thught。
⑦考查非谓语动词。句意：枫叶变红，绚丽的色彩欢迎大自然的爱好者。分析句子结构可知，此处考查“with+宾语十宾语补足语”的复合结构，宾语leaves与turn之间的关系为主动，所以应填turning。故填turning。
⑧考查冠词。句意：重阳节那天，通常在寒露前后，人们经常爬上长着茱萸的山，茱萸是一种植物。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填冠词，结合句意可知，此处表示泛指，意为“一种植物”，所以应用不定冠词，且kind的首字母发音为辅音音素，所以应填a。故填a。
⑨考查介词。句意：这个习俗起源于东汉(公元25-220年)，目的是辟邪。date frm为固定搭配表示“追溯到，起源于”，所以应填frm。故填frm。
⑩考查副词比较级。句意：寒露让我们告别设计精美的金秋，同样也给了我们一个机会，让我们了解更多节气背后的文化。分析句子结构以及句意可知，空格处应填much的比较级mre表示“更多，进一步”。故填mre。

解析：续写部分情节合理,语言流畅。第一段描述了孩子们玩得很开心,与原文最后一段中的 there is nthing interesting t play 形成强烈对比,呼应开头语中的 in surprise,并为后文 Susan有新的认知做铺垫。其中 she had fcused t much n what she didn't have but ignred what she had 与原文描述的 Susan固执地想要悠悠球以及第三段中的I dn't think there is anything interesting t play in the huse 呼应。第二段继续点题,描述妈妈送的紫色裙子,也是Susan 所拥有的东西之一,通过描述 Susan 的心理变化过程,并展现 Susan 向妈妈吐露心声的一幕,突显了文章的主题本文恰当运用了诸如 think t neself, jin sb in ding sth 等短语,以及时间状语从句(instantly he saw Susan)、强调句和多重宾语从句的复合句式(It was at that mment that Susan realized she had fcused t much n what she didn't have but ignred what she had.)与倒装句(On her bed was the purple dress given t her as a birthday gift.)等句式,使画面跃然纸上,实现了故事情节的多样化表达。
