46、newest and most alternative school is in session. The weather is fine so a bout of (一次) fishing is in order, followed by lunch cooked on an open fire. Homework and classes? Indefinitely dismissed.“We are called a school but we look nothing like any school out there,” says Joey Moncarz, cofounder and
47、 head teacher at Deep Green Bush School. “We dont do things like telling kids it is time to write or learn math. When they are interested in doing it, they do it.”Moncarz is an exmainstream teacher. After five disappointing years in mainstream schools in New Zealand he quit to found Deep Green Bush
48、School, which has a roll of eight, and no classroom walls, time out chairs (罚坐椅) or tests.Concerned that mainstream schools were not preparing children for the global problems of the future such as climate change Moncarz imagined a totally different kind of education, rooted in the primal skills of
49、hunting, gathering and survival. If the weather allows, pupils spend the majority of their day outdoors, exploring the New Zealand bush, learning to fish and hunt, trapping possums and learning about the plants and animals of their home. The more traditional school skills, such as reading, writing a
50、nd arithmetic, are acquired at their own pace, after they begin showing an interest in them.“We dont have what youd traditionally consider problem kids,” says Moncarz. “Our parents saw their kids were unhappy and stressed in mainstream education and they started questioning: Is it normal or right fo
51、r kids to come home stressed and unhappy? Having taught in a mainstream school, Id say most kids are stressed and unhappy.”Bush School is registered with the Ministry of Education as an independent school, and therefore does not have to abide_by the standard New Zealand curriculum, although it is su

We want to replace mainstream schools,” said Moncarz.语篇解读:本文为一篇说明文

We want to replace mainstream schools”可知,Moncarz想让Deep Green Bush School替代主流学校。综上可知,他创办Deep Green Bush School是为了改革传统的学校制度。43What does the underlined part “abide by” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?AObey. BAssess.CMonitor. DReplace.解析:选A词义猜测题。根据画线部分前的“Bush School is registered
58、 with the Ministry of Education as an independent school”和下文中的“although it is subject to ministerial regulation”可知,虽然该学校要接受教育部的监管,但是它在教育部登记为私立学校,因此不必遵循标准的新西兰课程。故abide by意为“遵守,遵循”,和A项含义最为接近。44What is the education system of Deep Green Bush School like?AUnpractical and rigid.BUnsatisfactory but strict
59、.CUnremarkable but fruitful.DUnconventional and popular.解析:选D推理判断题。根据全文的内容,尤其是文中的“newest and most alternative school”“Homework and classes? Indefinitely dismissed”“We are called a school but we look nothing like any school out there”“which has a roll of eight, and no classroom walls, time out chairs
60、 (罚坐椅) or tests”等信息可知,该学校与传统的学校不同,即它是非传统的(unconventional);再根据倒数第二段中的“since launching in January Moncarz has been fielding requests from around New Zealand and abroad to open chapters of Bush School in places as far a field as China and Europe”可知,自该校成立以来,Moncarz便一直收到其他国家或地区希望开设分校的请求,由此可知,它是广受欢迎的(popu

73、to redo it,” he said. In virtual reality, “all I do is hitting reset on the computer.I dont have to actually use chemicals.”Both Lamb and Evans stressed using the technology to have similar experience to their real world, where any number of subtle factors can affect an outcome.“We_have_to remain_an

77、 Lamb认为学生体验虚拟现实(技术)有益于提高他们的兴趣、理解力和记忆力,即他认为让学生体验虚拟现实(技术)对他们是有益的。故选B。47Virtual reality is rarely used in classrooms mainly because _.Astudents show little interest in itBrules for it havent been made so farCusers will spend much money applying itDit isnt good enough to be operated by students解析:选C细节理解
78、题。根据第七段中的“experts say its still relatively rare largely due to the fact that, while individual headsets that require a users phone can cost as little as D|S20 or D|S30, systems and software for classes run into thousands of dollars”可知,虚拟现实(技术)很少被运用到课堂上很大程度上是因为与其相关的系统和软件耗资巨大。故选C。48What does David Eva
79、ns think of virtual reality?AIt imitates the real world perfectly.BIt features many unpractical life skills.CIt shouldnt refer to dangerous things.DIt offers guidance for users on real life.解析:选D推理判断题。根据第八段中的“However, the ability to do dangerous things . represents a huge learning opportunity”可知,在与真
80、实的物理空间相反的模拟空间中学习做危险的事情和掌控许许多多其他更常见的情况的能力提供了一个很好的学习机会,由此可推断出,David Evans认为虚拟现实(技术)为用户提供了关于现实生活的指导。故选D。49What benefit does Lamb stress about virtual reality?ASaving lots of time.BReducing resource waste.CMinimizing experimental errors.DImproving experimental success rate.解析:选B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中Lamb所说的话,尤其
81、是“And if you dont get that outcome, you did something wrong, but we dont have enough resources for you to redo it” “all I do is hitting reset on the computer. I dont have to actually use chemicals”可知,Lamb认为跟在实验室做实验相比,虚拟现实(技术)更能节省资源,即减少资源浪费。故选B。50. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragr

This was mainly driven by a 19% decline in coal use. It follows a 5.8%
85、fall in 2016, which saw a 52% drop in coal use. The figure is doubly striking as emissions from cars have been going up. The analysis is based on government energyuse figures.Last year, Carbon Briefs assessment of carbon dioxide proved accurate. This years assessment shows that the UKs total carbon
86、dioxide emissions are currently 38% below 1990 levels. They have been decreasing steadily since 2012, with big falls in 2014 and 2016. The decline continued in 2017. Oil and petrol use increased slightly, though not enough to offset (抵消) the falls in carbon dioxide associated with other fuels.Leo Hi
87、ckman, editor of Carbon Brief, said: “The data shows the dramatic influence that the rapid decline of coalfired power plants is having on the UKs emissions. The drop was not as pronounced as in 2016, but in 2017 coal was joined by a fall in the use of gas due to a milder winter.” But he warned: “If
88、the UK is to meet its climate targets over the next few decades, this rate of decline will need to be maintained, even sped up. Action the government takes needs to be focused on the transport, where emission reductions remain difficult to understand.”Vehicles are creating a real carbon dioxide head
89、ache for the government, with average emissions for new cars rising for first time since 2000. The motor industry blamed the public backlash against diesel (柴油) vehicles driven by concern about local air pollution. But environmentalists said it was also caused by a manufacturing trend towards SUVs.A
90、lex Buttle, from the website Motorway, said: “Clearly, the government hasnt thought through the environmental influence of their antidiesel campaign.” He called for new tax breaks for electric and hydrogen cars.Another key factor is a change in tax policy. Previously, lowemission vehicles used to be
91、 rewarded by zero car tax, but in 2015 the then Chancellor George Osborne lumped (把归并一起) everything including electric and hydrogen cars into the tax band. That left the owner of a Porsche paying as much as the owner of a Toyota Prius.The head of the AA, Edmund King, forecast at the time: “This is r

Drivers will not be given the same encouragement to go for cleaner cars, so there wont be the same pressure on manufacturers to produce those cleaner models.” It appears he was right.Title: Cars (51) _ back the falling CO2 emission trendThe facts about Britains CO2 emissions

Therefore, I hold a positive attitude toward overseas study tours.
