A number of street artists around the world have started expressing themselves through a practice known as reverse g
25、raffiti (涂鸦). They find dirty surfaces and paint them with images or messages using cleaning brushes or pressure hoses (高压水管). Either way, its the same principle: the image is made by cleaning away the dirt. Each artist has their own individual style but all artists share a common aim: to draw atten
26、tion to the pollution in our cities.The UKs Paul Curtis, better known as Moose, operates around Leeds and London and has been appointed by a number of companies to make reverse graffiti advertisements. Brazilian artist, Alexandre Orion, turned one of Sao Paulos transport tunnels into an amazing wall
27、 painting in 2006 by getting rid of the dirt. Made up of series of white skulls (颅骨), the painting reminds drivers of the effect their pollution is having on the planet. “Every motorist sits in the comfort of their car, but they dont give any consideration to the price their comfort has for the envi
28、ronment and consequently for themselves,” says Orion.The anti-pollution message of the reverse graffiti artists confuses city authorities since the main argument against graffiti is that it spoils the appearance of both types of property: public and private. This was what Leeds City Council said abo
29、ut Mooses work: “Leeds residents want to live in clean and attractive neighborhoods. We view this kind of advertising as environmental damage and will take strong action against it.” Moose was ordered to “clean up his act.” How was he supposed to do this: by making all property he had cleaned dirty
30、again?As for the Brazilian artists work, the authorities were annoyed but could find nothing to charge him with. They had no other option but to clean the tunnel but only the parts Alexandre had already cleaned. The artist merely continued his campaign on the other side. The city officials then deci
31、ded to take further action. They not only cleaned the whole tunnel but every tunnel in Sao Paulo.4. What do we learn from the passage about reverse graffiti?A. It uses paint to create anti-pollution images.B. It creates a lot of trouble for local residents.C. It causes lots of distraction to drivers

33、y about Leeds City Councils decision?A. It is simply absurd.B. It is well-informed.C. It is rather unexpected.D. It is quite sensible.7.

34、l reverse graffiti.C. They charged him with polluting tunnels in the city.D. They made it impossible for him to practice his art.【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. D【解析】这是一篇议论文。本文主要讨论涂鸦是否犯罪，讲述在涂鸦方面艺术家们和政府之间的矛盾：艺术家们为了呼吁环保而涂鸦，而政府因为保护环境禁止涂鸦。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“to draw attention to the pollution in our cities(关注我们城市的污
35、染)”及第三段“The anti-pollution message of the reverse graffiti(反污染意义的涂鸦)”可知，艺术家们涂鸦是为了创造反污染的概念。故选A项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Brazilian artist, Alexandre Orion, turned one of Sao Paulos transport tunnels into an amazing wall painting in 2006 by getting rid of the dirt.(在2006年，巴西艺术家Alexandre Orion把Sao Paulo的交通隧道变
36、成令人惊奇的涂鸦墙，使交通隧道摆脱尘土)”可知，Alexandre Orion在交通隧道里涂鸦。故选B项。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段 “We view this kind of advertising as environmental damage and will take strong action against it.(我们认为这种广告会破坏环境，所以要强力反对)”及“Moose was ordered to “clean up his act.”(Moose被命令“改过自新”)”可知，前文讲述艺术家为了呼吁环保而涂鸦，但是当局却认为涂鸦是污染环境的行为，禁止艺术家涂鸦。再根据
37、“How was he supposed to do this: by making all property he had cleaned dirty again?(该怎么做呢？要把他所有干净的杰作再弄脏吗？)”可推知，作者提出这样的问题是为了表达对当局做法的否定。故选A项。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“They not only cleaned the whole tunnel but every tunnel in Sao Paulo.(他们不仅要清除这个隧道的涂鸦，还有Sao Paulo里的每一个隧道)”可推知，圣保罗市的官员们让亚历山大奥利翁的涂鸦成为不可能。故选D项。CCli
38、mate change leads to a threat to the worlds sandy beaches, and as many as half of them could disappear by 2100, a new study has found. Even by 2050 some coastlines could be unrecognizable from what we see today, with 10% to 12% facing severe erosion (侵蚀).Using updated sea level rise predictions, the
39、 researchers analyzed how beaches around the world would be in a future with higher seas and more damaging storms. They also considered natural processes like wave erosion, as well as human factors-like coastal building developments, all of which can affect a beachs health. The study found that sea
40、level rise is expected to outweigh these other factors, and that the more heat-trapping gases humans put into the atmosphere, the worse the influences on the worlds beaches are likely to be.Its hard to overstate just how important the worlds beaches are. They cover more than one third of the worlds
41、coastlines, and protect coastal areas from storms. Beaches are also important economic engines, supporting relaxation, tourism and other activities. And in some areas, the beach is more than a vacation destination. In places like Australia, life near the coast revolves around the beach for much of t
42、he year.Some of the worlds most popular beaches are already taking action. Places like Miami Beach are trucking in thousands of tons of sand to patch up (修复) badly eroded shorelines, while others have built sea walls and breakwaters in an attempt to hold precious sand in place. But the financial and
43、 environmental costs of these projects are huge, and scientists say rising seas and more powerful storms, supercharged by a warmer climate, will make this a losing battle.However, the researchers did find that humans have some control over what happens to the worlds beaches. If the worlds government
44、s are able to stick to modest cuts to heat-trapping gas pollution, the researchers found that 22%of projected beach losses by 2050 could be prevented, a number that grows to 40%by 2100 if greenhouse gases are limited.8. Which is the biggest contributor to severe beach erosion?A. Damaging storms.B. W

48、根据第三段Its hard to overstate just how important the worlds beaches are. They cover more than one third of the worlds coastlines, and protect coastal areas from storms. Beaches are also important economic engines, supporting relaxation, tourism and other activities得知很难夸大世界上的海滩有多重要。它们覆盖了世界三分之一以上的海岸线，并保护
49、着海岸线，保护沿海地区免受风暴的侵袭。海滩也是重要的经济引擎，支持休闲、旅游和其它活动。第三段强调了沙滩对人类生活非常重要。故选C。【10题详解】词义猜测题。根据第四段while others have built sea walls and breakwaters in an attempt to hold precious sand in place.

51、ould disappear by 2100, a new study has found.得知文章首句就点明主题。一项新研究显示：气候变化对世界上的沙滩造成了威胁，到2100年将有一半的沙滩消失。所以最佳标题是“到2100年，一半的沙滩将会消失”。故选A。DThe idea that having narrow local focus leaves little room for anything but a selfish mindset is a misconception, according to a new study that found that concern for loc
52、al affairs could help with global environmental conservation.You might have heard of NIMBY which means “not in my back yard” and describes an individual or group opposed to a new addition to the neighborhood, typically a factory, roadway or power station. Nimbyism and parochialism(眼界狭小), which is a
53、focus on a local area, can go hand in hand, and there are concerns that parochialism paves the way for prejudice, narrowmindedness, and selfishness.But researchers found the exact opposite to be true in a new study published. The researchers argue that positive parochialism can inspire a larger awar
54、eness of global environmental problems and encourage people to action.“We did not find evidence that parochialism was necessarily negative and inward -looking,” said Patrick, a researcher for the study. “It can be those things, but theres no necessary conflict between feeling connected to your local
55、 area and feeling connected to the wider world. ”For the study, the researchers reviewed documents from the 1987 Parish Maps project. The researchers showed how the Parish Maps project also demonstrated a passion for the environment and conservation. The researchers say that the Parish Maps project
56、is a strong example of “positive parochialism”, and shows that thinking locally can influence a global mindset.“For a long time, it has been generally agreed that if we want people to think about global affairs they need an international worldview-but this may not be the case,” said Patrick. “Given
57、where we are now in terms of trying to encourage people to make changes to help the environment, positive parochialism offers something that has been overlooked.”12. Which behavior can best illustrate NIMBY?A. Criticizing a friend for his selfish action.B. Accepting a proposal beneficial to locals.C
58、. Supporting a neighborhood construction plan.D. Objecting to building an airport in the neighborhood.13. Why does the author mention the Parish Maps project?A. To explain how to protect the environment.B. To offer an example of positive parochialism.C. To encourage people to take part in the projec
59、t.D. To stress the importance of global mindset.14. How does Patrick feel about “positive parochialism phenomenon”?A. Appreciative.B. Cautious.C. Negative.D. Puzzled.15. What may be the best title for the text?A. Parochialism, a better practice?B. International view, more popular?C. Thinking locally
60、, acting globallyD. Bigger thinking, better environment【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项新的研究发现，关注地方事务有助于全球环境保护，认为狭隘的地方关注只会让人产生自私的心态，是一种误解。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段“You might have heard of NIMBY which means “not in my back yard” and describes an individual or group opposed to a new addition t
61、o the neighborhood, typically a factory, roadway or power station.”（你可能听说过NIMBY这个词，意思是“不在我的后院”，它指的是一个人或一个团体反对在社区内新建新设施，通常是工厂、道路或发电站。）可知， NIMBY反对在附近建设一些项目。由此推知，反对在附近建机场能属于NIMBY。故选D。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段“For the study, the researchers reviewed documents from the 1987 Parish Maps project. The researcher
62、s showed how the Parish Maps project also demonstrated a passion for the environment and conservation. The researchers say that the Parish Maps project is a strong example of “positive parochialism” ,and shows that thinking locally can influence a global mindset.”（在这项研究中，研究人员回顾了1987年教区地图项目的文件。研究人员还展
63、示了教区地图项目如何表现出对环境和保护的热情。研究人员表示，教区地图项目是“积极狭隘主义”的一个强有力的例子，表明本地思维可以影响全球思维。）可知，作者提到Parish Maps project是为了提供一个积极狭隘主义的例子。故选B。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“For a long time, it has been generally agreed that if we want people to think about global affairs they need an international worldview-but this may not be the
64、case,” said Patrick. “Given where we are now in terms of trying to encourage people to make changes to help the environment,4 positive parochialism offers something that has been overlooked.”（帕特里克说:“长期以来，人们普遍认为，如果我们想让人们思考全球事务，他们需要一种国际世界观。但事实可能并非如此。”“考虑到我们现在在鼓励人们做出改变来帮助保护环境方面所做的努力，积极的狭隘主义提供了一些被忽视的东西。
65、”）可推知，Patrick对“积极的狭隘主义”是持欣赏的态度的。故选A。15题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段“The idea that having narrow local focus leaves little room for anything but a selfish mindset is a misconception, according to a new study that found that concern for local affairs could help with global environmental conservation.”（一项新
66、的研究发现，关注地方事务有助于全球环境保护，认为狭隘的地方关注只会让人产生自私的心态，这是一种误解。）可知，文章讲述了一项新的研究发现，关注地方事务有助于全球环境保护，认为狭隘的地方关注只会让人产生自私的心态，是一种误解。故C项：Thinking locally, acting globally（立足本地，放眼全球）可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选C。第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，共12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Profitable Senior Service Businesses You Can Start TodayThi

75、年，人口将超过7500万。）”说明美国人口现状。下文In fact, the U.S. Department of f Labor forecasts that senior service jobs will be the fastest-growing part of the job market for many years to come.（事实上，美国劳工部预测，在未来许多年，高级服务职位将是就业市场增长最快的部分。）表示了对未来就业情况的预测。E项中的“That”指代的是上文的美国人口现状，“senior service jobs”与下文一致。故选E项。【17题详解】根据设空处下文
76、“As most seniors want to stay independent as long as possible, they, or their grown-up children, plan to use that increased wealth to make their lives better in their senior years.（由于大多数老年人希望尽可能长时间保持独立，他们或他们的成年子女计划利用这些增加的财富，让他们的老年生活得更好。）”可知设空处说的是老年人的收入情况。F项中的“Seniors are richer”与下文“increased wealth”
77、一致。故选F项。【18题详解】通过上文“Because most seniors want to age in place in their own homes, they often need help with daily tasks like meal preparation and housekeeping.

89、ring comes when its good and ready; sometimes well before, sometimes well after.”可知，春天的到来或早或迟，很容易在不经意间溜走，故选A项。【22题详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：我不确定，为什么要依靠日历来宣布春天的到来，因为这和这件事没有关系。A. put away收拾起来；B. learn about了解；C. depend on依靠；D. make up构成。根据下一句“since it has so little bearing on the matter.”可知，此处是指作者不明白既然春天和日历没什么关系
90、，为什么大家还要依靠日历。故选C项。【23题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：春天有时按时到来；有时早来，有时晚来。A. working工作的；B. closing关闭的；C. equipped配备的；D. appointed约定的，指定的。根据上文“circle the first day of spring on our calendar.”及“Spring comes when its good and ready; sometimes well before, sometimes well after.”可知，大家都先在日历上做记号，标注日期。但是有时春天按时到来，有时在指定日期前来，有
91、时在指定日期后来，故选D项。【24题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：多年来，我们镇都是由Leon和Jo Martin提示春天的到来。A. ignored忽视；B. indicated表明，暗示；C. celebrated庆祝；D. interrupted插嘴。根据“It was as.an indication of spring as any calendar,”可知，Leon和Jo Martin可以暗示我们春天来了。故选B项。【25题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：每年他们都会在他们的招牌上张贴用“Now Hiring”（现在开始招租）的字样。A. post张贴，宣布；B. receive接收

93、7题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这种春天的暗示如同日历一样准确。A. general普通的；B. accurate精确的；C. casual随意的；D. invisible看不见的。结合上下文可知，此处是指Leon和Jo Martin春季开门营业的时间就如同Dairy Queen的作用一样，能精确的提示春天的到来，故选B项。【28题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在Dairy Queen被卖给外地的某个团队之后，这个店面全年开业。这影响了我们的昼夜节律。A. open打开的；B. neat干净的；C. stylish时髦的；D. fresh新鲜的。根据 “it threw off our
94、towns circadian rhythms”可知，原来Dairy Quee只有招租时才提示镇民春天要来了，而卖出去之后却起不到提示春天的作用了，可推测新店和Dairy Queen开业时间不一样，故选A项。【29题详解】考查副词词义辨析。句意：幸运的是，当Johnston的杂货店停止出售扫雪机，开始卖割草机时，那就预示着冬天要过去了。A.

96、 sign迹象；B. chance机会；C. function功能；D. preparation准备。根据“starts selling lawn mowers”可知，商店已经开始卖割草机了，所以预示着春天要来了，故选A项。【32题详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但是我们可以设想一下，如果Johnston不尽职责，那么我们就意识不到春天到了。A. clear清楚的；B. guilty愧疚的；C. worthy值得的；D. unaware无意识的。根据“suppose Johnstons store ignores its duty”可知，当Johntson闭店时，就没有什么可以让大家意识到春天
97、的迹象了，故选D项。【33题详解】考查连词词义辨析。句意：当第一片树叶在秋天枯干落到地上时，Bill会穿上他的棕色Carhartt大衣，直到明年春天才脱下来。A. Although虽然；B. When当时；C. Because因为；D.
