19、has been making its way around the rumor mill for years. And while it seems to be reasonable, the science just doesnt back it up.According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the worlds volcanoes, both on land and undersea, generate about 200 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) annually, while our
20、automotive and industrial activities cause some 24 billion tons of CO2 emissions every year worldwide. Despite the arguments to the contrary, the facts speak for themselves: Greenhouse gas emissions from volcanoes compose less than one percent of those generated by todays human activities.Another in
21、dication that human emissions surpass those of volcanoes is the fact that atmospheric CO2 levels, as measured by sampling stations around the world, have gone up consistently year after year regardless of whether or not there have been major volcanic eruptions in specific years. “If it were true tha

31、析】本文为议论文。文章用事实来反驳多年来人们认为火山产生了大部分的温室气体的观点。证实了火山不仅没让地球变暖，而是一定程度上导致全球温度下降，起到冷却作用。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“The argument that human-caused carbon emissions(排放) are merely a drop in the bucket compared to greenhouse gases generated by volcanoes has been making its way around the rumor mill for years.” 多年来，与火山产生的
32、温室气体相比，人类造成的碳排放量只占很小的论调一直在坊间流传。由此可推断出，一些人认为是火山产生了大部分的温室气体。故选B。【5题详解】猜测词义题。第三段的内容：根据世界各地采样站的测量表明人类排放量超过火山排放量的一个迹象是大气中的二氧化碳水平年复一年地持续增加，而不管特定年份是否发生过重大的火山喷发。根据划线词的If it were true that individual volcanic eruptions dominated human emissions and were causing the rise in carbon dioxide concentrations, then
33、 these carbon dioxide records would be full of spikes one for each eruption,” says Coby Beck, a journalist writing for online environmental news. “Instead, such records show a smooth and regular trend.”可知“如果个别火山爆发时二氧化碳高于人类的排放，并导致二氧化碳浓度的增加，那么每一次火山喷发都会充满“spikes”，相反的是，记录显示出二氧化碳浓度增加是“平稳而有规律的”。 句中的“inste
34、ad”表示转折，表示前后意思相反。环境新闻的记者Coby Beck说二氧化碳浓度的增加“记录显示出平稳的”，那么，“spikes”应该就是与之相反的“突然”的增加。分析选项A. Sudden increases突然增加；B. Smooth trends平稳的趋势； C. Stable regularities稳定的规律；D. Sharp declines急剧下降。可知，A项符合题意，故选A。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“some scientists believe that volcanic eruptions, like that of Mt.St. Helens in 1980 a
35、nd Mt. Pinatubo in 1991, actually lead to short-term global cooling, not warming”一些科学家认为，火山喷发，像在1980和1991的火山爆发，实际上在短期内导致短期全球冷却，而不是变暖。由此可知，火山实际上在一定程度上冷却了地球表面。分析选项可知B项符合题意，故选B。【7题详解】推理判断题。本文第一段提出：多年来，人们认为与火山产生的温室气体相比，人为碳排放只是沧海一粟，非常小， 但在科学上却是错误的。接着下文对此进行批判的同时提出了新的发现，即火山的爆发却能一定程度地导致全球温度下降，起到冷却作用。即反驳了某些人
36、的观点。这篇文章的目的是反驳一些人所持的观点。故选B。【点睛】在阅读中我们经常会考查猜测词义题。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。运用逻辑推理猜测词义是使用最广考查最多也最易失分的猜词方式，这要求考生具备整合分散、复杂信息的能力，充分利用上下文（各种已知信息）并结合具体的语境推测、判断某些词或短语的词义。例如第2小题词义猜测题。第三段的内容：根据世界各地采样站的测量表明人类排放量超过火山排放量的一个迹象是大气中的二氧化碳水平年复一年地持续增加，而不管特定年份是否发生过重大的火山喷发。根据划线词的If it were true that individual vol

38、 trend.”可知“如果个别火山爆发时二氧化碳高于人类的排放，并导致二氧化碳浓度的增加，那么每一次火山喷发都会充满“spikes”，相反的是，记录显示出二氧化碳浓度增加是“平稳而有规律的”。 句中的“instead”表示转折，表示前后意思相反。环境新闻的记者Coby Beck说二氧化碳浓度的增加“记录显示出平稳的”，那么，“spikes”应该就是与之相反的“突然”的增加。分析选项A. Sudden increases突然增加；B. Smooth trends平稳的趋势； C. Stable regularities稳定的规律；D. Sharp declines急剧下降。可知，A项符合题意，故
39、选A。CTo move visual technology into the future, sometimes it helps to make a little noise. Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating 3-D images, create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.Since the 1940s, scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation(声悬浮), the us
40、e of soundwave vibrations to trap tiny things in midair. The technology has gained greater capabilities in the past decade. Some researchers believe this improvement could lead to applications such as contributing to novel 3-D printing methods, or creating displays that would be visible from any ang
41、le without requiring a screen.Other researchers have also worked on visual displays that use acoustic levitation. In addition to visuals, the system can also produce audible noise to give the display a soundtrack. And the ultrasound speakers can also concentrate vibrations in one spot so that a fing
42、er might feel a sense pushing backa little like the object shown by the floating image is really there. Soundwaves create a 3-D display!Display without a screen is remarkably useful. It means that everybody in the room can see the imageany angle, locationand thats extremely helpful. As a communicati
43、ons system, such a display might one day allow users to chat with a 3-D projection(投影) of a person who can turn his or her head to follow as they move around a room.The display will require a lot more work before you can install it in your living room, however. So far, this has been done in the rese
44、arch laboratory. We need to push it a little bit harder. We need to do more analysis to see if it would make sense to create a real display that people would have at home. The current system can only show simple graphics, such as a smiley face or figure eight, in real time.Still, we are optimistic a
45、bout the potential for this type of technology. If the system had only one speaker-covered surface instead of two, it could generate images that are bigger than the device itself. We cant make a TV image thats bigger than the TVeven a projector has to have a projection screen thats bigger than the i
46、mage itself. But with a volumetric(容积的) display, a small, portable device might produce a much larger picture. We can imagine, in the future, having volumetric displays in watches, for example, that create large images that just project out of your watch.8. From the first two paragraphs soundwave vi
47、brations can be used to _.A. catch very small objects in midairB. develop 3-D printers capabilitiesC. replace a creative display screenD. compose soundtracks by making no noise9. What do we know about display without a screen?A. It has resulted in visual technology.B. It is possible to see the image
48、 from any direction.C. It is already ripe to create a real one at home.D. It has yet to be tested in the research laboratory.10. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. Outlooks for the new technology.B. Situations of the modern technology.C. Praise for the cutting-edge technology.D. Room

Seeing is Believing3-D Printing Methods ArriveC Advancing Sense of Touch3-D Images Float in the AirD. Promoting TV TechnologyChat with 3-D Projections【答案】8. A 9. B 10
50、. A 11. A【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了研究人员利用声波产生漂浮的3-D图像，创造触觉，甚至提供背景音乐。使用声悬浮的视觉显示器可以让人们从任何方向看到图像。但是实现这一技术在家里安装仍然需要很多工作，尽管如此，人们仍然对这种技术的潜力持乐观态度。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句Since the 1940s, scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation, the use of soundwave vibrations to trap tiny things in midair.(自20
51、世纪40年代以来，科学家们一直在玩弄声悬浮的概念，即利用声波振动将微小物体困在半空中)以及前面两段的内容可知，声波振动可以用来捕捉空中的非常小的物体。故选A。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中It means that everybody in the room can see the imageany angle, locationand thats extremely helpful.(这意味着房间里的每个人都能看到图像任何角度、位置这非常有帮助)可知，没有屏幕的显示可以从任何方向看到图像。故选B。【10题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段中We can imagine, in the fu
52、ture, having volumetric displays in watches, for example, that create large images that just project out of your watch.(我们可以想象，在未来，在手表上有容量显示器，例如，可以创建大的图像，从你的手表里投影出来)以及首句Still, we are optimistic about the potential for this type of technology.(尽管如此，我们仍然对这类技术的潜力持乐观态度)可知，段落主要内容为讨论未来新技术的可能性，可知最后一段主要讨论了对
53、新技术的展望。故选A。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段中Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating 3-D images, create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.(研究人员利用声波产生漂浮的3-D图像，创造触觉，甚至提供背景音乐)以及文章主要内容为说明使用声悬浮视觉显示器，可以让人们从任何方向看到图像。故A选项“听觉就是视觉声波产生三维显示”概括文章大意，是最佳标题。故选A。【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关
54、键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。如第四小题，根据第一段中Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating 3-D images, create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.（研究人员利用声波产生漂浮的3-D图像，创造触觉，甚至提供背景音乐）以及文章主要内容为说明使用声悬浮视觉显示器，可以让人们从任何方向看到图像。故A选项“听觉

134、别人先走。所以后文应该是讲述飞机着陆后，作者和机长的对话，机长问作者穿几号的裤子，作者很困惑地回答了他。第二段开头是：听到这个消息，船长离开了，几分钟后带着他自己的蓝色牛仔裤回来了。本段应该写机长将自己的裤子给了作者，因为这次经历，作者感激他的好意，下定决心要善待他人。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。按要求完成写作任务。【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：because of, be full of care, make up ones mind等高级词汇；非谓语动词的运用As I was in my seat, I looked up and see the captain standing with a warm smile.；非限定性定语从句Then I looked at my wife, who smiled and, without saying a word, let me know it was OK.等高级句式。
