Guernica is collected at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.BIt was a cold winter. The wind blew all night and the snow was blinding. When morning came, my three children and I
19、got up and made our way to the windows. As we looked out of the window, we saw that the hen house was gone. Our three hens had been blown away. I looked at the emptiness outside. Then I saw all three chickens sat around the edge of a white bucket. How was this violent wind not blowing them into the
20、field beyond? I quickly pulled on my husbands long snow pants and heavy winter coat, wrapped a scarf and stuck my feet into very large boots.I shouted at the wind as it blew. I was alone, except my children. They stared out of the window into the vast white sea of snow, their eyes peered for any sig

When I reached them, I saw that their little feet were holding on to the edge of the bucket, heads bent forwa

One by one I laid my chickens on the cold floor, and they began to cluck softly.As I shut the shed doors, my eyes went direc
23、tly to the window where my children were watching.They jumped up and down cheering, and so did I! I wasnt some dragon slayer（屠杀者）from a fairy tale.

26、berian landscape is not normally like hell. In winter it is blanketed in snow; in summer, its forests are lush (苍翠繁茂的). This year, however, the region is on fire, as are large parts of the Arctic Circle.The fires began in June, caused by an extremely hot and dry early summer. It was the hottest June
27、 on record globally. In the regions that are burning, temperatures peaked at 8-10 warmer than the average from 1981 to 2010. This has dried out the landscape, producing tinder (易燃物) for natural forest fires.So far, hundreds of above-ground fires have been recorded by satellites in the Arctic and sub
28、-Arctic. It is estimated that fires within the Arctic Circle have produced more than 100m tons of carbon dioxide in a year. That is a lot. But burnt vegetation can regrow within a decade, and in doing so reabsorbs much of the released carbon dioxide. It is what is happening below ground that most wo
29、rries ecologists and climate scientists.Global warming will melt Arctic permafrost (永久冻土), releasing large amounts of stored greenhouse gases. But if fires in the region become more common, that could have even bigger results. Wildfires will release much faster and bigger amounts of carbon, rather t
30、han melting permafrost. The fires also produce black carbon which, if dropped on the Arctic sea ice by favorable winds, will darken its surface, making it more likely to absorb sunlight and melt. This decreases the reflectivity of the region and further increases Arctic warming.Smog from the fires i
31、s blanketing much of Siberia. What is scary about the Arctic fires is that they are driven by climate change, and theres very little you can do, says Thomas Smith. Few natural fires this big have ever been successfully managed. The only way to deal with the spread of these fires is to slow the rate
32、of global warming. 28. What do we know about the wild fires in the Arctic Circle?A. They are common yearly phenomena. B. They come earlier than usual this year.C. They result from extreme weather. D. They destroy Siberian landscape.29. What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.
33、Hundreds of above-ground fires. B. 100m tons of carbon dioxide. C. Burnt plant life within a decade. D. Satellite distribution in the Arctic.30. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. The causes of fires. B. The results of fires.C. The working principles of global warming.D. The characteristic
34、s of Arctic warming.31. Which word best describes the authors attitude toward the Arctic fires?A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Optimistic. D. Worried.DMIT researchers have developed a way to put electronic sensors into fabrics (织物), allowing them to create shirts or other clothes that could be used
35、 to monitor vital signs such as temperature and heart rate. We can have electronic parts or lab-made electronics within the clothes that we wear every day, making them more comfortable, says Dagdeviren, a professor at MIT. His group set out to create clothes more similar to what we normally wear, us
36、ing a fabric that has removable electronic sensors in it.In our case, the fabric is not electrically functional. Its just a passive element of our clothes so that you can wear the devices comfortably during your daily activities, Dagdeviren says. Our main goal was to measure the physical activity of
37、 the body all from the same body part, without requiring any devices or any tape.The electronic sensors consist of long flexible strips(细条). These channels have small openings that allow the sensors to be exposed to the skin. For this study, the researchers designed a shirt with 30 temperature senso
38、rs and an accelerometer that can measure the wearers movement, heart rate, and breathing rate. The clothes can then transmit(传输)this data wirelessly to a smartphone.This kind of sensing could allow doctors to remotely monitor patients. You dont need to go to the doctor or do a video call, Dagdeviren
39、 says. Through this kind of data collection, I think doctors can make better assessments and help their patients in a better way.Last summer, several of the researchers spent time at a factory in Shenzhen, China, to experiment with the material used for the special clothes. “From the outside it look
40、s like a normal T-shirt, but from the inside, you can see the electronic parts which are touching your skin,” Dagdeviren says.32. Why do MIT researchers make the special clothes with sensors in it?A. To create clothes with medical functions.B. To satisfy customers personal need for fashion.C. To com
41、plete their academic tasks.D. To transform patents for benefits.33. What is the main function of the electronic sensors?A. Monitoring wearers behavior.B. Making the skin fully exposed.C. Adjusting wearers body temperature. D. Collecting and transmitting health information.34. What do the researchers
42、 expect of the clothes in the future?A. They will bring convenience to patients. B. They could be in mass-production soon.C. They might lead the new fashion. D. They may take the place of doctors.35. What can we infer about wearing the special clothes with sensors according to Dagdeviren?A. Its fash
43、ionable. B. Its skin-friendly.C. Its eco-friendly. D. Its awkward.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 Get a Healthy HomeMost of us have spent more time at home in 2020 than we ever imagined possible. _36_These tips can help make your home better for your body and mind.
