1 . 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Leo and Matt, both aged 16, are best friends who shared a passion for environmental sustainability. They were both students at a bustling high school in the heart of the city, a school that was infamous for its morning and afternoon traffic jams. The narrow streets leading to the school were always clogged (堵塞) with cars, buses, and bicycles, causing a great deal of inconvenience and pollution.

“Look what we are suffering every day!” complained Leo. “Isn’t there a solution to the problem?” Matt sighed.

They decided to take matters into their own hands and find a solution to the sticky problem. Initially, they made some speeches, distributed leaflets and volunteered to relieve the traffic congestion (拥堵), trying to persuade some parents to park their cars a little farther away the school and not to use cars too often. But two weeks passed, there was nothing better. Then they realized it was no easy work to deal with the trouble. They needed more hands for help and a well-thought-out plan for it.

They first gathered ten schoolmates who shared the same ambition. Then they started to conduct a thorough survey to understand the root causes of the traffic congestion. They interviewed students, teachers, and parents, as well as observed the traffic patterns during different times of the day. They learned that the majority of the congestion was caused by parents dropping off and picking up their children, as well as the lack of sufficient parking spaces.

Armed with this information, the team designed a detailed plan. They proposed the creation of a carpool system for students, encouraging them to share rides to reduce the number of vehicles on the road. They also suggested dedicated drop-off and pick-up zones, clearly marked with signage, to help streamline the process.

To further reduce congestion, they advocated for the construction of bike racks (架子) and encourage students to cycle to school. They even proposed a rewards system for those who chose sustainable modes of transportation.

注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

With their plan in hand, Leo and Matt presented it to the school authorities.

文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了种树造福人们的Jadav Payeng的故事。30多年前,Jadav Payeng开始在他出生地印度阿萨姆邦附近的一个贫瘠的沙洲上种树,而当时他的初衷是为了帮助快被晒死的被冲上岸的蛇,给它们提供荫凉。上游河流被村民改道,从而造成了一系列严重的后果,却也只有Jadav Payeng付诸行动开始种树。终于,30年后的今天,一切发生了改变,这都得益于Jadav Payeng种下的树。

3 . More than 30 years ago, Jadav Payeng started planting trees on a barren sandbar (贫瘠的沙洲) near his birthplace in India’s Assam region. That day, the then-16-year-old noticed many snakes washed up on the sandbar after a flood. They were dying due to heat exposure at a rapid rate. “How can I help them?” Then he had an idea: Trees can provide shade for them!

Jadav lives on an island, Majuli, which is in the middle of the Brahmaputra River. It begins at the base of the Himalayas, at the meeting of a fan of rivers that drain (流走) snowmelt. At one time, villages upstream had redirected the river, creating more forceful currents around the island and carrying away the soil, thus damaging the natural habitats of its wildlife. As a consequence, much of the island became barren sand, and an entire community was at risk of being displaced.

Jadav also noticed that nobody was doing anything about it besides watching their part of the world disappear. So, he started to put his idea into action — every day, one or two or three at a time. He took notes of how they grew, harvested their seeds, grew saplings (树苗) in his hut and planted before going off to work.

Now that once-barren sandbar is a 1,360-acre forest, home to many animals: deer, Bengal tigers, Indian rhinoceros and even a group of 100 elephants that visit every year. There are now native grasses that have taken root in the shade and varieties of native trees grown from seeds that have washed ashore. But most importantly, the island that is also home to a few hundred people is holding its own against the bad weather. Standing beside one of the first trees he planted 30 years ago, Jadav tells us: “It’s a little thing, something anyone can do.”

1. What was Jadav’s original aim to plant trees?
A.To save the snakes from heat exposure.B.To protect the snakes from extinction.
C.To produce materials to stop flooding.D.To use the leaves to create more shades.
2. What primarily made Majuli a barren island?
A.Villagers’ ignorance of ecology.B.Villagers’ redirecting the river.
C.The extreme weather conditions.D.Loss of wildlife’s natural habitats.
3. Which of the following can best describe Jadav?
A.Frank and learned.B.Subjective yet reliable.
C.Determined and careful.D.Smart but hot-tempered.
4. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.What the forest means to the wildlife.B.How ecology benefits the human kind.
C.How Jadav feels about his simple deeds.D.What difference Jadav’s efforts have made.

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要是讲科学家们发现人类在全球制造了数量惊人的塑料,我们正“迅速走向‘塑料星球’”,这正在造成严重的污染。文章对此进行了介绍。

4 . Scientists have calculated the total amount of plastic ever made: 8.3 billion tons. Looked at another way, that’s as heavy as 25, 000 Empire State Buildings or one billion elephants. And incredibly, almost all of it has been made in the last 65 years.

______ Much plastic is in the form of packaging which is used just once and then thrown away. According to a major new study from the University of California, 9% of this is recycled, 12% is completely burnt and 79% goes to landfill. And because most plastic is not easily disposed of, once it’s in the ground, it stays there.

It’s a situation that has led the paper’s lead author, ecologist Dr. Roland Geyer, to say that we are “rapidly heading towards ‘Planet Plastic’”. The team behind this report also estimate that eight million tons of plastic waste are escaping into the sea every year. This has caused concern that plastic is entering the food chain, through fish and other sea life which swallow the smaller fragments.

Of course, the reason why there’s so much plastic around is that it’s an amazingly useful material. It’s durable and adaptable, and is used for everything from yoghurt pots to spaceships. But it’s exactly this quality that makes it a problem. The only way to destroy plastic is to heat or burn it — although this has the side effect of harmful emissions.

So what’s the alternative, other than using less plastic? Oceanographer Dr. Erik van Sebille from Utrecht University says we’re facing a “tsunami” of plastic waste, and that the global waste industry needs to “get its act together”.

Professor Richard Thompson, a marine biologist from Plymouth University, says it’s poor design that’s at fault. He says that if products are currently designed “with recyclability in mind”, they could be recycled around 20 times over.

1. Which of the following is the best topic sentence for paragraph two?
A.So where does the plastic go?
B.So why is much plastic thrown away?
C.So what’s the problem?
D.So how is the plastic disposed of?
2. How might plastic enter the food we eat?
A.By being eaten and absorbed by sea creatures.B.By being used as useful materials.
C.By getting into the food market directly.D.By getting into the deep sea.
3. Which of the following might Richard Thompson agree with?
A.Plastic waste has caused tsunami.
B.The design of products should be environmentally friendly.
C.Plastics are currently recycled over 20 times.
D.Global waste industry is to blame for the plastic waste problem.
4. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Global Waste IndustryB.Recyclability of Plastics
C.Planet PlasticD.Plastic Waste into the Sea

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了野生动植物种国际贸易公约(CITES)组织发明了一种方法可以发现鲨鱼被非法捕获并出售的证据。

5 . In films and TV shows, police officers study fingerprints to catch bad guys. Now, conservationists (people who work to protect animals and the environment) are using a similar method to deal with the illegal overfishing of sharks.

Overfishing is when too many of a particular type of fish are caught, putting that species in danger. Many sharks are killed because of a high demand — and high price — for their fins. In some countries they are used to make shark fin soup, which some people believe is good for health. Around 100 species of sharks are protected by CITES — the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, which is an agreement between 184 countries that protects wildlife that is sold.

CITES has teams of people who visit ports and fish factories to look for evidence of protected species being illegally caught and sold. The idea is to punish those responsible and stop it happening, but finding evidence is difficult and can take a long time. Often, fish are sold before teams arrive and if a fish is cut up ready for sale, it’s hard to tell which species it was.

Scientists have come up with a process that studies “fish dust” — tiny traces of fish that get left on the floor at ports and factories, even after the fish have gone. Using a process called metabarcoding, they examine the DNA in it and can tell if the DNA is from a protected species. The scientists tested the method in Indonesia, where many sharks are caught and sold. They studied dust from seven sites and found evidence of 61 shark species — more than 80% of them CITES-protected. Dr. Andhika Prasetyo, the scientist who led the research, hopes the new method could soon be helping to protect endangered sea life.

1. What is the purpose of CITES?
A.To protect wildlife in the tradeB.To study the behavior of sharks.
C.To offer medical treatment to wildlife.D.To stop overfishing in dangerous waters.
2. What makes the work of CITES teams difficult?
A.Observing endangered sharks up close.B.Dealing with international problems.
C.Working with local fish factories.D.Finding timely and effective evidence.
3. What can we say about the new method?
A.It has met the need for shark research.B.It has begun to show promising results.
C.It has raised doubts in the fishing industry.D.It has been introduced to different countries.
4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.CITES: what it can tell usB.DNA uncovers shark secrets
C.DNA tests could save sharksD.The silent guardian of the sea: CITES

文章大意:本文是一篇新闻报道。100棵古树在未经协商的情况下被砍伐,村民们震惊不已。

6 . Not much happens in the sleepy village of Colaton Raleigh, where almost half of the residents are retired, so local walkers were horrified when they discovered 100 ancient beech trees were cut down.

Residents in the east Devon community are saddened by the loss of the beloved trees, which were cut down by a government agency without consulting the community or council. They were located in a special conservation area and site of special scientific interest, and were home to lots of local plants and animals.

An application was made by a local landowner to the Forestry Commission, a branch of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. It would not comment on individual cases, but said all decisions were taken in line with its standards. Alan Pearce, a local tree manager, said, “It certainly ought to be a fairly wide consultation because it’s part of our heritage. Once they’re gone you’re talking about 200 years to regrow. The stumps (树桩) look, nearly all of them, perfectly sound and solid. I can’t see they can say they were diseased or dying. We’re meant to be planting trees, not felling (砍) them.”

He said people were “absolutely horrified”, with one walker in tears over the felling, which he suggested may have been taken to improve grassland in the nearby field.

Resident Fiona Carroll said, “Many people walk in this area as it is part of a large expanse of heathland and they are at a loss as to why this has been allowed to happen. These were valuable landscape and wildlife trees situated along an extensive ancient Devon bank. The roots had grown into large supporting structures giving many a distinctive look.”

Ewan Macdonald, a research fellow at the University of Oxford, who studies how people engage with the environment, said he was not surprised the felling had caused such an emotional reaction because of the way people connected with trees. He said, “It highlights how intrinsically (内在地) bound up things like trees, the environment and conservation are with our culture.”

1. What happened in Colaton Raleigh?
A.Half of its residents retired from their jobs.
B.A government agency felled 100 ancient beech trees.
C.The Forestry Commission made an application to cut down trees.
D.The felling of the trees was done to improve their living conditions.
2. What can we know from the text?
A.The trees were cut down because of disease.
B.The local council didn’t approve of the application.
C.The local residents are eager to protect the environment.
D.The trees were cut down without consulting local villagers.
3. What’s Alan Pearce’s attitude to felling the trees?
A.Supportive.B.Opposed.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.
4. Which of the following may Ewan Macdonald probably agree with?
A.Protecting trees is protecting our culture.
B.The felling of trees doesn’t cause emotional reactions.
C.The environment, conservation, and trees are closely linked to our culture.
D.People’s engagement with the environment has no influence on their emotions.

7 . As a committed citizen, I would never exchange the industrial style of my home city of Wolverhampton, UK, for a view of rolling hills and valleys, let alone rainforests or mountain peaks. For me, the glories of untamed nature feel a planet away.

Wilderness with Simon Reeve, a four-part BBC travel documentary, aims to fill this gap. Reeve and his crew seek out corners of our rapidly urbanizing globe so far relatively untouched by humanity.

Travelling across rainforests and ice fields, deserts and oceans, including the Pacific Ocean’s Coral Triangle, and Patagonia, they reveal the pressures there and how we might protect them from us.

Travel programmes have a rather worrying relationship with conservation, predicated as they are on “selling” a destination. When it comes to the places least influenced by humans, I realize that travelogues can lead to mass tourism and damage.

Happily, based on its first episode (集), Wilderness with Simon Reeve seems more about finding a balance between “right” and “wrong” kinds of tourism. In this episode, we visit the Congo basin, home to the world’s second-largest tropical forest, which stretches for more than 2 million square kilometers across central Africa. The three-week journey begins along the Republic of the Congo’s Motaba river in search of the Baku, hunter-gatherers who live in the jungle. After an old-fashioned knees-up to welcome Reeve, several young Baku men agree to take a camera as they climb 20 metres into the top of the tree. One man puts his arm into a beehive (蜂箱) and collects the honey.

This is just one example of the extraordinary nature in the Congo rainforest. For me, it showed the joy and surprise I felt learning about this region and its people, who aren’t treated as guardians of mysterious knowledge, but as an adaptable, responsible community moving with the times.

All told, the first episode is informative and entertaining. I still have reservations about the impact of such travel shows on conservation, but the series makes a strong case that the first step to preserving an ecosystem is to see its value.

1. What does the underlined word “untamed” in Paragraph I probably mean?
A.Wild.B.Unpredictable.C.Distinctive.D.Complex.
2. What is the purpose of Wilderness with Simon Reeve?
A.To promote tourism in remote areas.
B.To encourage people to move to urban areas.
C.To show the beauty of rainforests and ice fields.
D.To raise awareness about the value of untouched nature.
3. Which of the following can best describe the Baku people?
A.Friendly but poor.B.Honest and generous.
C.Curious but backward.D.Adaptable and trustworthy.
4. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A.An introduction to a book.B.A review of a travel documentary.
C.A guidebook to a tourist destination.D.An essay on influence of mass tourism.

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了如今塑料垃圾已经严重地污染了我们的环境,尤其是海洋环境,人类应该采取错误改变这一现状。

9 . Plastic is everywhere in our environment, especially in the ocean. Actually, a large amount of plastic waste is floating around the world’s oceans today, waiting to be eaten by some fish or oyster, and finally perhaps by one of us.

Because plastic wasn’t invented until the late 19th century, and its production only really took off around 1950, we have a mere 9.2 billion tons of the stuff to deal with. Of that, more than 6.9 billion tons have become waste. And of that waste, a surprising 6.3 billion tons never made it to a recycling bin. No one knows how much unrecycled plastic waste ends up in the ocean. In 2015, Jenna Jambeck, an engineering professor, caught everyone’s attention with a rough estimate: between 5.3 million and 14 million tons of plastic waste each year just come from coastal regions.

Meanwhile, ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine (海洋的) animals every year. Nearly 700 species, including endangered ones, are known to have been affected by it. Some are stuck by abandoned things made of plastic. Many more are probably harmed invisibly. Marine species of all sizes, from zooplankton to whales, now eat microplastics. We are closely related to oceans so the consequences of throwing plastic away may return to affect us some day.

“This isn’t a problem where we don’t know what the solution is,” says Ted Siegler, a Vermont resource economist, “We know how to pick up garbage. Anyone can do it. We know how to deal with it. We know how to recycle.” It’s a matter of building the necessary systems, he says, ideally before the ocean turns into a thin soup of plastic.

1. What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A.To prove plastic was difficult to invent.B.To tell us what marine animals like eating.
C.To call on us to protect marine animals.D.To introduce the topic of the passage.
2. How is the second paragraph mainly developed?
A.By listing figures.B.By giving examples.
C.By analyzing reasons.D.By making comparisons.
3. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A.resultsB.functionsC.causesD.aims
4. What does Ted Siegler want to tell us?
A.Some people don’t know the solution of plastics waste.
B.It’s time to take measures to deal with plastic waste.
C.Plastics will turn the ocean into a soup of plastic.
D.People should avoid using plastics to protect the ocean.
