文章大意:本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了圣赫勒拿(St Helena)这个位于南大西洋中部的英国海外领土,包括其地理位置、大小、人口、气候以及可达性等信息。

1 . Location

St Helena is one of the remotest islands on Earth. The subtropical (亚热带的) British Overseas Territory sits in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, 1,200 miles from the west coast of Africa and 1,800 miles from the east coast of South America.

Size Population

St Helena is only 16 km long and 9 km wide and the population is 5,000. This is 1/3 the size of the Isle of Wight, and the same size as Disney World Orlando. This is also the same size as San Francisco-yet the island has just 0.5% of San Francisco’s population. With an extremely low-crime community, you can freely explore the island’s natural and built attractions in peace.

Climate

As a subtropical island, St Helena’s temperature is 15-28℃ all year round. While the four seasons are not recognized on St Helena, the “cooler months” are generally June to September and the “hotter months” are December to March. St Helena is free from extreme weather events, with even thunderstorms only occurring perhaps once a decade.

Accessibility

Until 2017, St Helena did not have an airport and was only accessible by sea. Reaching the island meant a five-day ship voyage from Cape Town, South Africa. However, since October 2017, the island’s first and only airport has enabled passengers to reach the island in just a six-hour flight.

1. In what aspect are St Helena and San Francisco alike?
A.Climate.B.Population.C.Crime rate.D.Area.
2. What can best describe the climate of St Helena?
A.Tropical.B.Mild.C.Dry.D.Extreme.
3. How could visitors gain entry into St Helena before 2017?
A.By plane.B.By car.C.By ship.D.By train.

Adrift (漂流) in a Sea of Green

Living in the forest of steel-and-cement structures, urbanites are impatient to embrace nature on weekends. A natural forest in     1     people in Sichuan province tend to spend leisure time is the Southern Sichuan Bamboo Sea in Yibin. The 120-square-kilometer Bamboo Sea is the     2     (large) primitive bamboo park in China.

The Bamboo Sea     3     (recognize) as one of the country’s 10 most beautiful forests has served as a popular tourist attraction since scenes from the Oscar-winning Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon     4     (shoot) there. The bamboo forest got an ecotour rating when it was listed as     5     world-class bamboo reserve in December 2003, the fourth tourism destination in China to get the Green Globe 21 certification, allowing itself     6     (admire) by more people around China and worldwide.

Located in Australia, Green Globe sets the global benchmark (基准) for certification of environmentally friendly tourism sites.       7     (reflect) the principles for sustainable development and based on Agenda 21, the certification was approved by     8     (represent) of 182 countries and regions from around the world during the United Nations Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit in 1992.

Amazed     9     its vast expanse, Huang Tingjian, a poet from the Song Dynasty (960- 1279), described it as “bamboo waves”. As Huang was an     10    (influence) man of letters, his description gave rise to the forest's popular nickname — the Bamboo Sea.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。从科学的角度对被戏称为“魔鬼三角”的百慕大三角进行了揭秘。

5 . Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

The Mystery is No Mystery

The area of ocean between Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda, known as the Bermuda Triangle, is the source of much mystery. Over the centuries, reports of ships and planes disappearing     1     a trace have seized the public attention, leading the zone     2     (nickname) “The Devil’s Triangle.” Suggested causes for these mysterious disappearances range front supernatural powers to underwater alien bases. However, there is a more basic question to ask: Do more craft really disappear in the Bermuda Triangle than in any similarly trafficked area? The answer,     3     it turns out, is no.

The Bermuda Triangle covers a vast 700,000 square-kilometer swathe of ocean. Close to the equator(赤道)and near the United States, it is a particularly busy patch of sea with heavy traffic. According to Lloyd’s of London and the U. S. Coast Guard,     4     you were to compare the number of disappearances to the large quantity of ships and planes that have passed through the Bermuda Triangle, you would find that there     5     (be) nothing out of the ordinary about the area.

These days, new theories are being put forward, with a bit of scientific truth to them. Some have attributed Bermuda Triangle disappearances to explosive releases of methane (甲烷) gas,     6     (trap) as methane hydrate inside water molecules beneath the cold seabed of the deep ocean. Such blowouts could potentially release a giant amount of gas that could cause the sea to bubble like it was boiling, which could possibly sink ships because the resulting bubbles would be much     7     (thick) than the water on which large ships normally float. The gas could also rise into the sky,     8     (produce) a mixture of five to 15 percent methane which could explode on contact with the engine exhaust of a hot airplane.

The only problem with this theory is that scientists won’t be able to tell with much certainty if this is a factor       9     the ocean floor is mapped in greater detail. It remains to be seen     10     they will succeed in their attempt to clear up the Bermuda Triangle “mystery” this time around.

The Lights of Aurora

On the night of 2 September1859, the dark sky over Europe and North America was suddenly full of light! The light did no come from the sun or the moon and it had a strange colour. The light moved across the sky,     1     (come) and going, like clouds in a strong wind in the United States, a man in Boston was using the telegraph to speak to a man in Portand 160km away. They both turned off the electricity for the telegraph, but     2     could still speak to each other for the next two hours. The electricity was coming from the light in the sky. How was this possible? And what was the light in the sky?

The light is called the aurora. Usually, you can see it only at the very north of the earth,     3     it is called aurora borealis or Northerm Lights, or at the very south, where it is the aurora australis or Southern Lights. But in 1859, something happened in the sun — a very large storm — and it moved the aurora across the middle of the earth. We do not think that his ever happened before 1859, and we know that it     4     (not happen) since then.

Why does the aurora happen? And why can we only see it at the top or bottom of the earth? The aurora is made by something     5     (call) the ‘solar wind’( wind from the sun). We cannot see this wind, or touch it. It is a wind of particles that travel away from the sun at the time at about 400 kilometers a second. Most of the particles never touch the earth. The earth has a kind of ‘wall’ around it that defends it     6     these particles. This wall is called the earth’s magnetic field, and it pushes the particles away on either side. But the earth's magnetic field has two “windows” in it: the magnetic north, and the magnetic south. At these places. the earth’s magnetic field turns down into the earth. And some of the particles from the solar wind come through these magnetic ‘windows’. These solar particles crash is to the particles tat are already in our sky. And     7     this happens, we see the beautiful lines or clouds of light of the aurora.

Alaska is a good place     8     (see) the auurora borealis, and you can also go to places like Iceland, Siberia, the north of Greenland, Norway, Sweden, and Scotland to see the aurora australis, go to the south of Australia, Tasmania, or New Zealand.

People travel thousands of kilometers to see the aurora, and they can never be sure     9     it will happen. But     10     do see it says that they will never forget it.

文章大意:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述的是今年秋天自然界将呈现出特别炫目的色彩,报道了多位专业人士对此的期待和看法,并指出了气候变化对树木和园林的影响。

10 . Rainy Summer Brings Forecast of Bright Colours for the Autumn

Nature lovers can look forward to particularly dazzling displays of reds, ambers, butter yellows and russet browns this autumn, said the National Trust.

Andy Jasperhead of gardens and parklands at the National Trust,

“UK is about to be wrapped in a “warm blanket” of beautiful colours. This year’s summer weather has helped resist the trend of recent dry ones, so our plants and trees finally had a chance to hydrate(补水) and are now gearing up for a dazzling show. The autumn spectacle is likely to start in Scotland, where temperatures typically drop the fastest, followed by the north of England and Northern Ireland, with a domino effect down the rest of England and Wales through to the southwest.”

John Lanyon, Glendurgan’s head gardener,

“We have really high hopes for a spectacular autumn display, which will make up for last year’s poor season. In 2022 the lack of rain and high temperatures put our trees under huge stress before we experienced strong winds that blew the leaves off before they had a chance to turn.”

Tom Hill, a trees and woodland adviser for southeast England,

“I was hoping for the first “normal autumn” in a while. Our gardens and woodlands in the southeast are directly facing the impacts of climate change in this country. The older trees that we care for in London are particularly vulnerable to suffering from prolonged droughts.”

Luke Barley, the trust’s national trees and woodland adviser,

“The charity was identifying trees with stress caused by years of drought and increasingly warm winters.”

1. Which region is predicted to experience the start of the autumn spectacle first?
A.Wales.B.North of England.C.Scotland.D.Nor them Ireland.
2. What contributes to this year’s spectacular autumn display?
A.Lack of rain.B.High temperatures.C.Strong winds.D.Wet summer.
3. Which are most sensitive to long droughts?
A.The older trees in London.
B.The trees with stress.
C.The gardens in the southeast.
D.The woodlands in the southeast.
