27、ns of tourists crowded the countrys most popular spots like Florence, Rome and Venice. Then, with the pandemic, tourists disappeared.According to most estimates, the tourism sector is not expected to recover to pre-pandemic levels until late 2023 or early 2024, but political leaders and many working
28、 in the sector are taking steps now to assure that, as the tourism strengthens, it avoids the former overcrowding problems in tourist centers.“Italy should not emphasize the dependence on big tour buses that all pull into parking lots and overwhelm a small town for a few hours, but promote more high

36、ration work for Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which are expected to begin on Feb 4, 2022, has entered its final stage. In January, 2021, the ice-making work on the “Ice Ribbon”, a landmark venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics, was completed.In the Winter Olympics, where races can be won or lost by
37、a small time gap, tiny imperfections in the ice can make all the difference. “Its not just a hunk of ice like youd normally think of, like ice cubes sitting in your freezer,” told Kenneth Golden, a US mathematician who studies the structures of ice. “Its a much more fascinating and complex substance
38、 than people would normally think.”The first step for building any ice rink is to purify the water to remove dissolved solids like salts and minerals. Such impurities dont fit in the regular hexagonal (六边形的) structure of ice that forms as water freezes. The more pure the water is, the more consisten
39、t the ice surface.In addition to the need for excellence in the raw materials of ice-making technology is also very important. As one of the most advanced technologies for winter sports venues, a carbon dioxide (CO2) cooling technology has been applied on a large scale for the Beijing Winter Olympic
40、 Games. CO2 is not new when it comes to ice-making. However, it has been gradually replaced by the man-made refrigerant, like Freon.With increasing attention toward climate change, the old refrigerant has come into use again. As an element of the atmosphere, CO2 doesnt damage the ozone layer. Althou
41、gh CO2 is a greenhouse gas, its greenhouse effect is much lower than that of other synthetic refrigerants. The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making, which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.“We believe these technological innovations will bring
42、 Beijing 2022 to spectators all over the world in a more impressive way,” told Gao Bo from the Media Operations Department of the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.32. What is the result of impurities in water for ice-making?A. The water isnt able to freeze completely.B. The q

Why has CO2 cooling technology been applied for the Winter Olympic Games?A. Its the most advanced technologies for ice-making.B. CO2 is more efficient than other refrigeran
44、ts.C. CO2 is more environmentally-friendly than Freon.D. CO2 has already existed in the atmosphere.34. What is Gao Bos attitude to CO2 being applied to ice-making?A. Unclear.B. Opposed.C. Doubtful.D. Favourable.35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Beijing Winter Olympic
45、 Games.B. Beneath Olympic Ice.C. The Use of Refrigerants in Olympic Games.D. The Structure of Ice.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，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。Tim Cook gets up at 3:45 a.m. Pepsi CEO Indra Nooyi gets up at 4 a.m. Disney CEO Bob Iger is a 4:30 kind of guy. Jack Dorsey sleeps in
46、until 5:30. So does my buddy Richard Branson. Rarely do night owls get good press. Because successful people wake up early. Well, at least some of them do. As Adam Grant says,“The worlds most successful people arent worried about what time others wake up. They wake and work on the schedule that work
47、s for them.” 36 While you might think becoming an early bird is a simple matter of willpower and persistence, research shows that whether youre an early riser or a night owl is predominately(主要地) biological. 37 . They are night owls.While studies show that morning people tend to be more persistent,
48、self-directed and tend to be better planners，night owls tend to perform better on tests that measure memory, processing speed and cognitive ability. 38 And, strange enough, they tend to be a little more financially successful. So if you want to set higher goals for yourself, should you try to become
49、 a morning person? Or if you want to be more open to new experiences, should you try to become a night owl? No. 39 Relationship isnt causation(因果关系). Successful people who are early risers arent necessarily successful as a result of waking up early. Theyre successful because theyve matched their bod
50、y clocks to their schedules. When you start working doesnt matter. What matters is what you get done in the hours between when you stop and start working. Success is all about what you accomplish. 40 A. Science agrees. B. They tend to be more creative. C. Its not the time of day you accomplish it. D
51、. In short, they didnt decide to be night owls. E. If you arent a morning person, stop trying to be one. F. You should be who you are and stop trying to be something youre not. G. However, success is about what you accomplish, not when you accomplish it. 第三部分：语言运用 （共两节，满分30分）第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）
