But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation(撤离)of an island nation. The citizens of T
26、uvalu will have to leave their homeland. During the 20th century, the sea level rose 812 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the countrys drinking water. Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute tha
27、t the nation has suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms. Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Ky
28、oto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their for
29、efathers have lived for thousands of years. ” Laupepa said. Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries. Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable(易受影响的)to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United N

33、valuC. allow Tuvaluans to move to the USD. believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real【解析】选A。细节理解题。由第四段第一句话可知, Laupepa对美国不满意的原因是美国拒绝签署号召工业化国家减少温室效应气体排放的国际性公约。故选A。 BGlobal warming threatens to hold back human progress, and make all UN targets unachievable to reduce poverty, according to some of the
34、worlds leading international and development groups. In a report published today, Oxfam, Greenpeace and other groups say rich governments must immediately address climate change to avoid even “unbearable levels” of worldwide poverty. “Food production, water supplies, public health and peoples liveli
35、hoods are already being damaged and weakened, ” the report says. “There is no approach possible. The world must meet its commitments to achieve poverty reduction and also deal with climate change, which are closely linked. ” The report, which draws on UN predictions of the effects of climate change
36、in poor countries over the next 50 years, says poor countries will experience more flooding, declining food production, more disease and the extinction of entire eco-systems on which many of the worlds poorest people depend. “Climate change needs to be addressed now. The poor will bear the great con
37、sequence of it. The frontline experience of many of us working in international development indicates that communities are having to fight more extreme weather conditions. ” Climate change will cause great damage to agriculture and water supplies and will increase diseases. “By 2025 the number of th

Which of the following is NOT related to global warming according to the p
40、assage? A. Fitness. B. Food production. C. Water supplies. D. Education. 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第三段中“Food production, water supplies, public health and peoples livelihoods are already being damaged and weakened”以及文章内容可知, 文中没有提到education。25. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Set
41、tle. B. Speak. C. Occupy. D. Write an address. 【解析】选A。词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知, 富裕的政府会解决气候变化来避免世界贫穷。address意为“解决”。26. Where may the passage be taken from? A. A diary. B. A novel. C. A magazine. D. A news report. 【解析】选C。文章出处题。文章主要是讲全球变暖加剧贫穷的问题, 这是一篇研究报告, 应该出自杂志。而不是日记、小说和新闻。27. Which of the following is the m
42、ain topic discussed in the passage? A. Global warming: causing damage to agricultureB. Global warming: causing damage to water suppliesC. Global warming: a bigger threat to humansD. Global warming: a bigger threat to the poor【解析】选D。主旨大意题。文章首句表述了全文的中心, 其意义是: 据全球主要的国际发展组织推测, 全球变暖不但威胁着人类发展的进程, 有可能使之倒退,
43、 而且也有可能使联合国所有减少贫穷的目标和计划都将无法实现。由此可简述为: 全球气候变暖加剧贫穷。CThere was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier: “Paper or plastic? ” Well, which type of bag would you choose? While all types of bags have some influence on the envi
44、ronment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. They are made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. However, the producing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true? Studies
45、 show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides, the influence on forests is very serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to
46、 be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling, the idea that paper bags are more environmental-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper. Even though paper bags might be
47、 more harmful than plastic ones, plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland, for example, a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags. People have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag, and as a result, their use has dropped qui
48、ckly. Theres no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However, we dont seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so, cloth bags are a better choice, but still, their production also has a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How shoul
49、d we answer the question of “Paper or plastic? ” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I do to help the environment? ”【文章大意】文章列举了一些数据来说明纸袋和塑料袋哪种更环保。不管怎样, 如何保护环境是我们所有人都需要关注的。28. The questions in Paragraph 1 are used to . A. express the authors doubtsB. tell
50、 readers how to save moneyC. introduce points for discussionD. show the kindness of the cashier【解析】选C。推理判断题。文章第一段说到“去超市购物, 售货员最后问我们用纸袋还是塑料袋”的问题, 引出下文关于环保的讨论。所以, 第一段的问题是被用来引出下文要介绍的话题。故选C。29. Compared with plastic bags, paper bags . A. need more water to produceB. require less energy to recycleC. take
51、 more time to break downD. have less influence on forests【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第三段前两句Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. 可知, 与塑料袋相比, 纸袋的生产需要更多的水。故选A。30. The underlined word “di
52、scarded” in Paragraph 3 probably means “”. A. shared B. given upC. discussed D. put forward【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据第三段最后两句可知, 就回收而言, 纸袋比塑料袋更环保的想法可以被很快放弃了。研究显示, 回收塑料比回收纸节省98%的能源。故选B。31. Which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask? A. Paper or cloth? B. Paper or plastic? C. A small bag or
53、 big one? D. A new bag or your own one? 【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知, 我们应该怎样回答“纸袋还是塑料袋”的问题呢? 似乎我们首先需要问自己一个更常规的问题“我应该做什么来改善环境呢? ”。所以, 作者希望收银员问的问题是“新袋子还是自己的袋子? ”。故选D。D(2021北京高二检测)Climate Change Requires the Worlds AttentionSeveral years ago, a lot of people were shocked by a news photo of a dead polar bear
54、 that was found on Norways Arctic island of Svalbard. According to the scientists who found its dead body all that remained of the polar bear was “skin and bones”. An expert who has studied polar bears for many years said that from the position of its dead body, the bear appeared to have starved and
55、 died. Experts claimed that low sea-ice levels caused by climate change meant the bear could not hunt seals as before, so it had to travel greater distances in order to find food. This alarming case showed how the increase in temperature had an impact on Earths ecology. Then what is causing the incr
56、ease in the global average surface temperature? Climate scientists often mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”, which has two common meanings: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man-made” greenhouse effect. The “natural” greenhouse effect, which helps keep the earth warm
57、 enough for people, plants and animals to live on, refers to the fact that heat from the sun enters the atmosphere and warms Earths surface as short-wave radiation. The heat is released back into space at longer wave lengths. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as methane (沼气) and carbon dioxid
58、e, trap some of the heat, keeping Earths climate warm and habitable. Without this process, Earth could not sustain life. However, the man-made greenhouse effect has now become a big problem. When people produce huge amounts of extra greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels, more heat energy is trapp
59、ed in the atmosphere and causes Earths surface temperature to rise quickly. There is strong and comprehensive evidence that the rise in temperature has led to an increase in extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide, not only causing serious damage, but also costing human lives. Climate scient
60、ists have warned that if we do not take appropriate actions, this warming trend will probably continue and there will be a higher price to pay. In fact, news reports are frequently broadcast about extreme rainstorms and heat waves causing deaths and economic losses. Continued greenhouse gas emission
61、s (排放) will result in further warming and long-lasting changes to the global climate. This requires the attention of people all over the world. Governments need to consider making policies and taking appropriate actions and measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We as individuals can also redu
62、ce our “carbon footprint” by restricting the amount of carbon dioxide our lifestyles produce. It is our responsibility to seize every opportunity to educate everyone about global warming, along with its causes and impacts, because it is all of us that share this planet. So what will you do to help?
63、【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了当今气候变化的原因, 气候变暖持续下去会造成的影响, 所以, 气候变化需要全世界的关注, 我们每个人都有责任。32. The dead polar bear was mentioned in the first paragraph to . A. show polar bears are endangeredB. raise the problem of global warmingC. raise the awareness of protecting animalsD. warn people of the damage caused by trave
64、lling【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句表明, 这个令人震惊的案例显示了气温升高对地球生态的影响。由此可知, 死去的北极熊被举例是为了证明气温升高对地球生态的影响。所以在第一段中提到死去的北极熊是为了提出全球变暖的问题, 故选B。33. What is causing the rise of Earths surface temperature? A. Methane. B. Carbon dioxide. C. Heat from the sun. D. Man-made heat energy. 【解析】选D。 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可以看出, 当人们燃烧化石燃料产生
65、大量额外的温室气体时, 更多的热能被困在大气层中, 导致地球表面温度迅速上升。由此可知, 是人为产生的热能导致了地球表面温度的上升。故选D。34. The rise of Earths surface temperature may result in . A. higher cost of livingB. better growth of plantsC. more extreme weather eventsD. speeding of animal reproduction【解析】选C。 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段前半部分可知, 有充分和全面的证据表明气温上升已导致世界范围内极端天气和
66、自然灾害增加, 不仅造成严重破坏, 而且造成人命损失。由此可以推出, 地球表面温度上升会在世界范围内导致更多的极端天气事件。故选C。35. The last paragraph mainly tells us that . A. policies are important to stop carbon dioxide emissionsB. the long-lasting effects of climate change is very seriousC. everyone should take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissionsD. i
67、t is the governments duty to control the process of global warming【解析】选C。主旨大意题。根据最后一段后半部分可知, 我们个人也可以通过限制我们的生活方式产生的二氧化碳量来减少我们的“碳足迹”。我们有责任抓住每一个机会, 教育每个人了解全球变暖及其原因和影响, 因为我们共享这个星球。由此可以推断出, 最后一段告诉我们, 我们每个人都应该采取行动以减少温室气体的排放, 这是我们共同的责任。故选C。 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。
68、Solar energy, which comes from the suns rays, is used for electricity, hot water, and cooking. 36When traveling a long way and entering the earths atmosphere they become dilute(稀薄的). Though solar energy is known to be environmentally friendly, it has not only some advantages but also some disadvanta
69、ges. Lets start with the simple advantage of solar energy. 37To make electricity or heat with solar energy you only need the suns rays and dont use oil. Solar energy is cheaper compared with electric heating. 38If you live in a faraway area where there are no power lines, using solar energy can be t
70、he answer. Even though all of the above is very useful, solar energy also has some disadvantages. The main disadvantage of solar energy is that its dilute. This means you have to have many solar collectors fixed around your house. 39Another disadvantage is that solar energy cant be produced in all t
71、he places. If youre living in a part of this beautiful planet where there is not much sunlight then using solar energy could be a problem. Of course if you live in desert areas, the sun produces much sunshine for the most part of the year and it is ideal for solar energy collecting. 40Therefore if y
