24、potatoes or rice, because the main meal for almost everyone was bread. But there was a problem with bread: in those days, sometimes the wheat didnt grow very well, people, especially poor people, would have nothing to eat. So when the king called Frederick heard about the potato, he immediately orde
25、red everyone in the country to start growing potatoes. But to his surprise, they refused. Frederick was a very clever man, and although there were no psychologists in 1774, he certainly had a talent for understanding the psychology of his people. So he soon came up with a very interesting plan. Firs
26、t, he planted potatoes in his palace garden. Next, he sent soldiers to guard it. As soon as people saw the garden and the soldiers, they started asking each other “What could be in that field that is worth so much?” And of course, as soon as they found out that the field was full of potatoes, they a

35、r researchers to develop professional skills.(大四期间,优等生要学习两门研究经验课程。 参与这些课程包括每周至少12小时的研究项目工作,以及每周与其他研究人员的会议,以发展专业技能)”可知,荣誉课程的要求是应该上两门相应的课程。故选A项。【22题详解】推理判断题。由文章最后一段“However, only honors students are guided and helped through the process of writing an essay.(然而,只有优秀学生在写作过程中得到指导和帮助)”可知,只有优秀学生才能得到论文指导,由此

49、 In total around 3,300 million tons of carbon dioxide (about three-quarters of the worlds emissions in 2019) are locked away in the planets blue-carbon sinks.

51、that underwater forests are thicker than the land-based woods. They can also trap floating pieces and organic matter, which settles on the sea floor and can double the amount of carbon stored away.(蓝碳生态系统产生如此有效的碳汇的一个原因是水下森林比陆地森林更厚。它们还能捕获漂浮在海底的碎片和有机物,从而使碳的储存量增加一倍)”可知,蓝碳生态系统能产生如此有效的碳汇因为他们有更强的吸收能力。故选D。
52、【27题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“Blue-carbon ecosystems may not be fired, but they remain affected by other sorts of disasters. In May 2020 cyclone Amphan destroyed 1,200 square kilometers of mangrove forests.

The University f Florida offers a sports media program.(一些大学正在采取行动,佛罗里达大学提供体育媒体课程。)”可知,大学给学生们提供了专门的课程。故选B项。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段 “She says her experience makes her more interested in a journalism career, not less.
66、 Her optimism comes from knowing that people still need news.

68、个问题。C项“新闻业还有未来吗?”符合题意,适合做标题。故选C项。DThis is going to ruffle(激怒) a few feathers.PepsiCo purposely packs fewer chips into its flavoured chip bags, Hugh Johnston, the companys CFO, told the Associated Press.“There might be an ounce or two less in those bags, ” Johnston said. Actually, its half an ounce l
69、ess. Regular Lays are sold in 10ounce bags; flavoured Lays are sold in 9.5ounce bags; and both are sold for the same $4.29 price. That might not sound like a lot, but it will sound like a lot with a bit of simple maths.Americans buy some $1.6 billion worth of Lays potato chips every year. Much of th
70、at is sold in bulkor merely in bags bigger than the standard ones mentioned above. But lets assume for a second that those 10ounce bags are the only ones Lays sells. That would mean the company sells more than 372 million bags of Lays in the US each yearor 3.72 billion ounces of chips, at about 43 c
71、ents per ounce. It would also mean that that halfounce difference is worth about 21.5 cents per bag, and about $80 million in total per year.That number is likely a good deal lower, but its not entirely unreasonable. If Lays is charging an extra payment for the smaller flavoured chip bags, its likel
72、y doing the same for the bigger ones, too. That tiny halfounce difference might only mean a potato chip or two to you, but its probably worth tens of millions of dollars to PepsiCo annually.PepsiCo confirmed that flavoured and unflavoured Lays chips are sold for the same price, but not in the same q
73、uantity. “This allows us to keep the same price point across the brand, ” Jeff Dahncke said in an email. He also suggested that the chip difference has nothing to do with extra profit.“The reason why there is a slightly higher price per ounce for flavoured chips is the added seasonings(调味品),” he sai
74、d. But that doesnt appear to be the case.Some of the markups are simply meant to make up for the added input costs of cheese, barbecue, sour cream and onion, and other flavourings. But some of them are also there(or not there) to increase the potato chip makers profits. PepsiCo has a soft spot for i
75、ts specialty potato chips, because its specialty potato chips are more profitable than its regular ones, according to Johnston.Perhaps thats why Lays is getting ready to launch a mass of new specialty potato chip flavours. The launch is part of PepsiCos annual “Do Us a Flavour” contest, in which it
76、lets customers participate in the flavour creation process.32. What did PepsiCo do to arouse public dissatisfaction?A. They raised the price of their flavoured chips.B. They gave short weight to their flavoured chips.C. They changed the flavours of their potato chips.D They put more seasonings into
77、their potato chips.33. How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?A. By listing figures.B. By giving examples.C. By analysing causes.D. By making comparisons.34. Why do Lays flavoured chips charge more per ounce according to Jeff Dahncke?A. To make more profits.B. To upgrade their products.C. To balance ad
78、ditional costs.D. To satisfy more peoples taste.35. What does the underlined phrase “has a soft spot for” in the last but one paragraph mean?A. Has a say in.B. Has a look at.C. Has access to.D. Has affection for.【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文。百事对单包风味薯片偷偷减少分量,其辩解说是为了弥补原料上的额外费用,但作者认为并不是那样
79、,其实质就是为了提高利润。【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段内容及第二段中的“PepsiCo purposely packs fewer chips into its flavoured chip bags, Hugh Johnston, the companys CFO, told the Associated Press.( 百事公司首席财务官休约翰斯顿(Hugh Johnston)告诉美联社说,公司特意减少了调味袋里的薯条数量。)”可知,百事在单包风味薯片上减少分量,这导致争议。give short weight是固定用法,意为“缺斤少两”。故选B。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段
80、的内容,尤其是其中的“some $1.6 billion” “10ounce bags” “more than 372 million bags”“3.72 billion ounces of chips,at about 43 cents per ounce” “about 21.5 cents per bag” “about $80 million”可知,作者主要是通过列数据的方式来陈述第三段的内容。故选A。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The reason why there is a slightly higher price per ounce for flavoured
81、 chips is the added seasonings(调味薯片每盎司价格略高的原因是添加了调味料。)”,并结合倒数第二段中的“to make up for the added input costs(以弥补增加的投入成本)”可知,据Jeff Dahncke所言,风味薯片每盎司要价提高是因为添加了调味品,而百事不足量地包装其薯片是为了弥补由此造成的额外费用。故选C。【35题详解】词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中的“because its specialty potato chips are more profitable than its regular ones(因为它的特色薯片比普通薯片
82、更有利可图)”及最后一段第一句“Perhaps thats why Lays is getting ready to launch a mass of new specialty potato chip flavours. (也许这就是为什么乐事准备推出一大批新的特色薯片口味。)”可知,百事公司卖特色薯片比卖普通薯片更赚钱,而且他们亦准备推出一大批新的特色薯片口味,并举行比赛让顾客参与其创造过程。由此可推知,百事公司对自己的特色薯片应是情有独钟的,画线短语has a soft spot for应是“喜欢某人(或某物) ”之意。故选D。第二节 阅读七选五 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5

He called the project Basic English _37_ Ogden arrived at his 850-word list through experimentation, rephrasing texts over and over until he was satisfied. The words he finally included were not necessarily the
