Sandy beaches are important habitats supporting a wide range of species. They also protect the coast from the effects of storms, so without sandy beaches
26、 other inland environments can be affected by the effects of waves and saltwater intrusion,” Vousdoukas added.Global sea levels have increased in recent decades. Major causes include melting ice. And water expands as it warms.Researchers examined satellite images showing shoreline changes during the
27、 past thirty years. They then used these trends in two different climate change situations. One situation predicted a small reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The other situation predicted high greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gas emissions have a link to climate change.By 2050, the research
28、ers projected beach losses of between 13 and 15 percent. By 2100, the projected losses are from 35 to 49.5 percent.

Out of nowhere, those two words came _22_ (dance) off the page in a quote by Gandhi, “In the midst of death life persists, in the midst of untruth truth persists, in the mid
42、st of darkness light persists.”After those words _23_ (read) again a dozen times, suddenly I was no longer bored. Outside in the sunshine, I kicked off my shoes and danced barefoot across a spring-green lawn.I love spring. And this year, I was especially hungry to see it. Flying home last weekend to
43、 Las Vegas, after 10 days in California, I looked down on hills that were so green that I _24_ almost taste them. When I approached Vegas, the green turned a dull desert brown. We landed after sunset, and the only green to be seen was neon(霓虹灯).But the next morning, to my surprise, I _25_ (awake) to
44、 find signs of spring all over my yard. _26_ my absence, all sorts of things had leafed and bloomed.

47、we 30. who【解析】【分析】本文是夹叙夹议文。这是一篇人生感悟,作者通过自身的经历,以及偶然读到的甘地的一段话联想到生命的意义与坚持。生命长存于寂静沙漠的植物中,长存于冬去春来的绿意中。冬去春来,生命依然长存,而我们也要继续前行。【21题详解】考查宾语从句的引导词。句意:我不记得自己正在研究什么。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导宾语从句,引导词在从句中作宾语并且指物,意为“东西”,应使用what引导宾语从句。故填what。【22题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:甘地语录:“在死亡中,生命依然坚持;在谎言中,真理依然长存;在黑暗中,光明依然永驻”。其中那两个词life persits突然映入作者
48、的眼帘。come后接现在分词可以表示“来”的方式。这两个词突然从书上的引语中映入作者的眼帘,dancing作为方式状语形象生动地描述了这两个词所富含的美好活力以及作者遇到它们的偶然性。故填dancing。【23题详解】考查时态和语态。句意:我读了那些话十几遍之后,突然之间我不再无聊了。由本句的was及语境可知,该句描述的是过去的事情,应使用一般过去时且主语承受谓语动词read的动作,即read应该使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were read。【24题详解】考查情态动词。句意:我低头看着那么绿的小山,我几乎可以闻到它们的味道。结合语境及sothat可知,that后面表示的是结果,使用情态动词
49、can表示“能够”,但该句描述的是过去的事情,应使用can的过去式。故填could。【25题详解】考查时态。句意:但是第二天早上,令我惊讶的是,我醒来后发现院子里到处都是春天的迹象。由本句的the next morning和语境可知,本句应使用一般过去时。可以使用awake的过去式awoke或者构成主系表的句子结构,使用was awkoen。故填awoke/was awoken。【26题详解】考查固定短语。句意:在我离开家出门的时候,各种各样的植物如雨后春笋般长出来。in/during ones absence:在某人不在的时候,它是固定短语。故填In/During。【27题详解】考查非谓语动
50、词。句意:有时我们需要提醒自己我们还活着。chance to do:做某事的机会。主语we承受动词remind的动作,因此chance后面的动词不定式应该使用被动形式作chance的后置定语。故填to be reminded。【28题详解】考查时间状语从句的引导词。句意:我丈夫去世后,一个朋友给我寄了一张卡片,上面写着:“当你认为自己再也不会微笑时,生活才回来。”分析句子结构,需填入引导状语从句的引导词,结合语境,使用when/as表示“当时候”合乎语境。故填when/as。【29题详解】考查人称代词。句意:生命一直存在,我们也是如此,在春天的绿色和隆冬中,在孩子的出生和亲人的离世中;在我们留
51、下的文字中和那些会记住我们的人的心中。由本句后面的we及us可知,此处使用we作主语,so do we是倒装句。故填we。【30题详解】考查定语从句的引导词。句意:生命一直存在,我们也是如此,在春天的绿色和隆冬中,在孩子的出生和亲人的离世中;在我们留下的文字中和那些会记住我们的人的心中。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导定语从句,先行词是those,指人,它在从句中作主语,通常使用who引导定语从句。故填who。【点睛】come后接现在分词可以表示“来”的方式,或者是伴随“来”还有另一个动作同时在发生。如:The children came running to meet us. 孩子们跑着来迎接我
52、们。come running 的意思是“跑来”,指的是以“跑”的方式“来”,或者说,在“来”的过程中同时还在“跑”。再如:She came crying as soon as she saw me. 她看到我就哭着走过来。come crying的意思是“哭着来”,指的是她一边走来一边在哭,或者说她在“来”的过程中还伴随在“哭”。小题2考查非谓语动词。句意:甘地语录:“在死亡中,生命依然坚持;在谎言中,真理依然长存;在黑暗中,光明依然永驻”。其中的那两个词life persits突然映入作者的眼帘。come后接现在分词可以表示“来”的方式。这两个词突然从书上的引语中映入作者的眼帘,dancing

Second, it gets the word out so that others can use what has been discovered. This is essential because science is a

People who work thousands of miles apart build with and upon each others discoveries.The communication of science begins with “peer review”, a process of _43_ an authors scholarly work, research or ideas to the inspection of other experts.

He or she must prepare a report describing the intended work, laying out background, hypotheses(假设), planned experiments, expected results, and even the _45_ impacts on oth

90、 I went deaf in my right ear and was left with 50 percent hearing in my left. Over time, my remaining hearing dropped to 20 percent, where it is today.

120、has risen by 30% since 2010. In 2020 the sports governing bodies are hoping to see an even bigger increase in interest. Along with skateboarding, surfing and karate(空手道), rock climbing will be making its first appearance as an Olympic sport at the summer games in Tokyo.The International Olympic Comm
121、ittee (IOC) is frank about the ambition to appeal to a younger crowd who may be less familiar with longer-standing sports such as athletics and weightlifting.

Bouldering and lead climbing feature new routes in each stage of a competition, in an effort to imitate the variety of real rock. But speed climbing takes place
126、 on a standard, unvarying course. Because of this, said Mr. Ondra, “speed is a kind of artificial discipline and this is against the soul of climbing.”Skateboarders, also notably rebellious, can be strikingly young.

150、transport trips than trains, tubes and trams put together. People love them, in theory: one poll by Transport Focus, a consumer group, found that 74% of young people think they are a good way of getting around and 85% believe it is important for a place to have a good bus service. There is just one
151、problem. In practice, Britions are taking buses less and less.Why are London buses emptier? One thing that has changed is young peoples behavior. The young are heavy bus users when they travel. But, increasingly, they do not travel. According to Transport for London, the average 17 - to 24-year-old
152、took 2.3 transport trips per day in the year 2011- 12 but only 1.7 in 2018 - 19. The National Travel Survey confirms that no group has cut back harder on travel since the early 2000s than teenagers. Young people are more diligent these days, and stay in school for longer. They can do the things that
153、 young people love to do on their phones, without going out.The other big bus users are the poor and the old, especially outside London, but both are turning away from buses to cars.

155、here is the gig economy(零工经济). Online shopping and Uber probably substitute of bus trips as well as private car journeys. And they put new vehicles on the roads, which slows everything down. The number of light-goods vehicles in London has risen by 28% since 2012. Tony Travers of the London School o

The average London bus now travels at 9.3 miles per hour. Just as people become less inclined to run after buses, they are becoming easier to catch._
157、【答案】Fewer people take buses in the UK. The first reason is that young people use their mobile phones to do their favorite things instead of going out. Secondly, heavy bus users especially those poor and old people who live outside London start to use private cars. Lastly, online shopping and Uber ma
