11、c word orka which means energy.Orca can pull carbon dioxide out of the air and send it deep into the ground,where it is turned into stone.The device is made up of four sections which look like giant air conditioners stacked together.Each section contains 12 large fans that suck air from outside into
12、 steel compartments.Inside,the air passes through a filter(过滤器) which gathers the carbon dioxide.It is then heated to a high temperature so the carbon dioxide can be collected from the filter.Then,the carbon dioxide is mixed with water and put deep in the ground into a type of rock called basalt.Bas
13、alt causes the carbon dioxide mixture to turn into stone after two or three years.Orca is an experimental device.It was built to demonstrate that it is possible to permanently remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.It can remove 4,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the air each year.Thats abo
14、ut the same amount as the emissions produced by 850 cars in a year.In order to remove enough carbon dioxide to make a big difference to global warming,much larger devices like Orca would have to be built in many countries around the world.Some environmental activists say governments should spend mor
15、e time and money on reducing the amount of greenhouse gas we produce each year,instead of investing in carbon capture methods.But others say that,in order for countries to meet their goal of net zero emissions by 2050,they will need to do both:reduce new emissions and remove the carbon dioxide alrea
16、dy in the air.5.Whats the purpose of designing Orca?A.To conserve energy.B.To achieve zero emissions.C.To protect natural resources.D.To remove carbon dioxide in the air.6.What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 2?A.Orca.B.The basalt.C.The air.D.Carbon dioxide.7.How does Orca work?a

18、is not mature.D.It doesnt work efficiently.Passage 3(2022湖南岳阳二模)In February of 1942,Mexican farmer Dionisio Pulido thought he heard thunder coming from his cornfield.However,the sound wasnt coming from the sky.The source was a large smoking break sending out gas and pushing out rocks.This opening wo
19、uld come to be known as the volcano Paricutin,and over the next 9 years,its lava and ash would cover over 200 square kilometers.But where did this new volcano come from,and what caused its unpredictable eruption?One of the most common causes of an eruption is an increase in magmastatic pressure.Magm
20、a(岩浆) contains various elements and compounds.At high enough concentrations,compounds like water or sulfur(硫) form high-pressure gas bubbles.When these balls of gas reach the surface,they can burst with the force of a gunshot.And when millions of bubbles explode,the energy can send ash into the air.
21、But before they pop or burst,they act like bubbles of CO2 in a shaken soda.Not all eruptions are due to rising magmastatic pressuresometimes the weight of the rock above can become dangerously low.Landslides can remove massive quantities of rock from atop a magma chamber or room,dropping the pressur
22、e and instantly touching off an eruption.This process is known as “unloading” and its been responsible for numerous eruptions,including the sudden explosion of Mount St.Helens in 1980.But unloading can also happen over longer periods of time due to heating ice or melting glaciers.In fact,many geolog
23、ists are worried that glacial melt caused by climate change could increase volcanic activity.Unfortunately,knowing what causes eruptions doesnt make them easy to predict.While scientists can roughly determine the strength and weight of the Earths crust(地壳),the depth and heat of magma chambers makes
24、measuring changes in magmastatic pressure very difficult.But volcanologists are constantly exploring new technology to overcome this rocky field.Advances in thermal imaging(热成像) have allowed scientists to detect underground hotspots.Spectrometers can analyze gases escaping magma.Hopefully,these tool
25、s will help us better understand these gas breaks and their explosive eruptions.9.Why does the author mention the story of a farmer in the first paragraph?A.To show the power of volcano eruption.B.To introduce the topic.C.To introduce the volcano Paricutin.D.To explain the reason.10.What does the un
26、derlined word “they” in paragraph 2 refer to?A.The bubbles of CO2.B.The ash of the volcano.C.Gas bubbles of compounds.D.The elements of a soda.11.Which of the following is true about the eruption of Mount St.Helens?A.Landslides should be responsible for its eruption.B.It began to explode over a long
27、 period of time.C.The process of “unloading” occurred after its explosion.D.The weight of the rock above it increased as to cause its eruption.12.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Scientists can determine the eruption of the volcano in advance.B.It is quite difficult to measure the weight
28、of the Earths crust.C.Spectrometers can help scientists to detect underground hotspots.D.Scientists are positive about further study of volcano eruption.考点分类练(八)词句猜测题代词指代类Passage 1【语篇导读】本文是一篇人物传记。文章介绍中国出生的钢琴家傅聪。他以其对肖邦、德彪西和莫扎特作品的细致诠释而闻名,他的国际知名度为中国艺术在西方赢得了一席之地。1.C解析 推理判断题。根据第二段的最后一句话“To prepare for th
