Some have suggested that it is (29) ______ the characters are always striving for happiness. But the truth probably lies in their origin.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)I live in a second - floor flat with an ancient tree right on the corner of the house. House and tree have beenhere, side by side, for well over a century. No one really knows how old the tree is, butit was already there when builders started on the house at the beginning of the 1900s.It was still rather young and flexible back then, so it easily welcomed the new structure into its path.it bent and adjusted itself to make room, and to find the space to grow big and strong and wise. Whichmeans that some hundred years later, the solid, strong branches of the tree reach around two full(苔藓), which is, in turn, crawling with all sortssides of my home. It’s covered in massof inseets. I have never seen the insects, by the way, I just know that they’re there because of all the birds trying to pick them out. They are always hopping around, looking for this and that and singingsongs.I feel like I have become part of the ecosystem. When I’m eating breakfast or making dinner in the ki I can look out and see a bird hopping around skillfully, gathering its own meal while I tend to mine. WhenI’m sitting in the living room, reading or drinking tea, I can suddenly find myself face to face withanother bird. We’ll be staring at each other and, after some time, decide we can both carry on withour business. Living side by side. Even as I write this -- the large windows open to a lovely, soft evening --a white feather comes floating down by my side. Probably from one of the resident pigeons.As I don’t have the luxury of a garden, this tree makes me fell connected to the outdoors. Such anancient tree, a tree that is itself home to many other creatures -- that feels different.

Our collective tiredness has promoted a $41 billion market for devicespromising more -- and higher - quality -- sleep. In my everlasting search for downtime, Itested some of the most promising ones. Here’s how they stacked up.Eight sleep tracker$299This mattress (床垫)topper fits under asheet and “turns any bed into a smart bed,” according to Eight. While I slept, the sensor - decorated pad gathered data like heart rate,periods of deepest sleep, and number of turns.

Nightingale Smart Home Sleep System(C)An epidemic is the occurrence of a disease which affects a very large number of people living in an area andwhich spreads quickly to other people. Like infectious diseases, ideas in the academic world are spreadable.But way some travel far and wide while equally good ones remain in relative insignificance has been a mystery. Nowa team of computer scientists has used an epidemiological model to imitate how ideas move from one academicinstitution to another. The model showed that ideas originating at famous institutions caused biggerequally good ideas from less well-known places, explains Allison Morgan, a computer scientist atthe University of Colorado Boulder and lead author of the new study. “This implies that where an idea is how far it spreads, holding the quality of the idea constant.” says senior author Aaron Clauset,alsoat Boulder.” says Simon DeDeo, Not only is this unfair -- “it reveals a big weakness in how we’re doing science,a professor of social and decision sciences at Carnegie Mellon University, who was not involved in thestudy. There are many highly trained people with good ideas who do not end up at top institutions. “They areproducing good ideas, and we know those ideas are getting lost, ” D eDeo says. “Our science,our scholarship, is not as good because of this.”The Colorado researchers analyzed an existing data set of computer science department hires in NorthAmerica, as well as a database of publications by these hires. First they looked at how five big ideas incomputer science spread to new institutions. They found that hiring a new member accounted for this movement alittle more than a third of the time -- and in 81 percent of those cases, transfers took place from higher- tolower-status universities. Then the team imitated the broadcasting of ideas using an infectious disease model andfound that the size of an idea “epidemic” (as measured by the number of institutions that published studies on anafter it originated) depended on the status of the originating institution. The findings were published online lastOctober in EPJ Data Science.The researchers’ model suggests that there “may be a number of quite good ideas that originate in the m of the pack, in terms of universities, ” Clauset says. DeDeo agrees. There is a lot of good workcoming out of less famous places, he says: “You can learn a huge amount from it, and you canlearn things that other people don’t know because they’re not even paying attention.”63. The word “this” in paragraph 2 refers to the fact that _________.A. the time when good ideas were born decides how far they may spreadB. the quality of the original ideas tends to be not easy to maintainC. good ideas from less important institutions lack influenceD. scholars in insignificant institutions consider their ideas valueless64. The case of some hires in paragraph 3 is used to indicate _________.A. the statistics the epidemological model provides for the researchersB. why the originating institutions transfer their new findingsC. how they carry the ideas from lower - to higher - status institutionsD. the way the movements of some new ideas happen and their effects65. Researchers such as Clauset are very much concerned about _________.A. losing quite a number of great and creative thoughtsB. missing the opportunities of getting more well-knownC. misusing the epidemiological model in scientific research areasD. having difficulty in finding more proper science department hires66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Infectious DiseasesB. Original IdeasC. Idea EpidemicD. Epidemiological ModelSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentencecan be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. So we try to push back the tide and keep up by multi - tasking.B. No wonder people say they’re too busy to see friends, exercise or sleep.C. Would it surprise you to hear that we have more leisure time today than ever?D. How can we learn to spend time in a way that’s more likely to lead to happiness and success?E. It’s something that economist have been puzzling over and they’ve identified several reasons.F. Then you will have fewer empty experiences and far ore that are worthy of your precious time.The Fullness of TimeMost of us think we have very little time, but the truth is we actually have a lot - on average,five hours 49 minutes each day, which means we typically have somewhere between 36 and 40 hoursavailable to be spent every week however we want. So why don’t we feel time - rich? ______67______ One is that we earn more, so time feels more expensive. Then there’s the way we’ve come busyness as a status symbol: important people are busy, so we want to be busy, too. Add to thatthe flood of incoming emails and texts, along with the endless ocean of possibilities, and it’s easyto see where time goes.A second factor is the comparison we make between what we can do and what others are doing,making us anxious. _____68______ This fools us into thinking we’re being more productive with our work tim so we try to do it with our leisure time, too. When we’re playing with out kids, we check Facebook.When we’re hanging out with one group of friends, we post pictures to show another. This is somethingsociologists call ‘polluted time’.We’re also addicted to our devices. In 2007, the amount of leisure time we spent on devices likesmart-phones could be measured in minutes. Now, we spend on average 3.5 hours a day online._____69_____You might be wondering why you need help deciding how to spend your free time -- after all you know thesort of things you enjoy, so what could be so difficult? Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has asurprising opinion on it. “The p opular assumption is that no skills are involved in enjoying free time,anybody can do it. Yet the evidence suggests the opposite; free time is more difficult to enjoy than work.scientists have found that people are often no happier after a holiday than if they’d never taken o The question still remains unsettled.Ⅳ.Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no morethan 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Cryptocurrency(加密货币)Making payments online is very easy these days if you have a credit card or a bank card that used a paymentnetwork. Sending money online to a friend, you have to use a payment service like Google Pay or PayPal,or make a bank transfer. However, there is usually a significant delay before the receiver can use themoney, and transfers can have sizeable fees.In 2008, a group of people published a paper describing a process that would use crypto-graph(密码学)to create a secure electronic cash system, known as a cryptocurrency. Person - to - personpayments could be made online using a shared network of computers instead of a bank or other financialorganization. Each transaction could happen very quickly. The shared network of computers would also serve as themeans to confirm those transactions safely. Getting rid of the need for a centralized banking system would open upthe possibility for anyone to become part of the digital economy.Today, there are over a thousand different cryptocurrencies. Most are still trying to be valid globalpayment systems like Bitcoin. They are held back by problems affecting the entire cryptocurrency industry. Oneissue is weak security on cryptocurrency websites where users either store their electronic cash. The websites arestruggling to protect their users from such thefts.Another problem is the large number of false cryptocurrencies advertised on the Internet. Theadvertisements invite Internet users to visit websites offering new cryptocurrencies. Many visitors are persuaded tobuy their cryptocurrencies using actual money. Later, the websites disappear along with the victims’ money. In response to this problem, companies like Facebook and Google are limiting cryptocurrencyadvertising on their websites.Ⅳ. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 我真的应该为自己失礼的行为向你道歉。

In the last decade or so, (32) ______in technology have allowed mass-market labels such as Zara, H&M, and Uniqlo to react to trends more quickly and predict demand more(33) ______.

Nezha was born a devil(恶魔),5(fate) to cause mischief(恶作剧), but he decides to overcome his fate and to save the people of his hometown from being destroyed by Ao Bing, the third son of the Dragon King.6the ancient myth being very clear about the differences between the good and the bad guys, in Yang's film, all of the characters are treated with empathy, and even the "bad" people are also victims of their fate,7, actually, have the potential to change and become good.Over the years, I have come across a few students labeled as "devils". Although some misbehaved simply8they were not mature enough, others were trouble-making and uncooperative when they were in a bad mood. Those students need to know they were not doomed to be bad. As they grew up, they would have the power to change their circumstances.If you have seen Nezha, you know9 a terrific, entertaining film it is. But an important lesson is also conveyed in the film10we should not judge ourselves or others too harshly, so as not to allow those negative judgements to control our fate.二、选词填空Flood-hit Venice's shrinking population faces mounting problemsVenetians(威尼斯人) are fed up with what they see as inadequate response to the city's mounting problems: record-breaking flooding, environmental and safety threats from cruise ship traffic and the burden on services from over-tourism.They feel largely left to their own devices, with ever-fewer Venetians living in the historic part of the city to1its interests and keep it from becoming mainly a tourist land.The historic flooding this week—marked by three floods over 1.5 meters (nearly 5 feet) and the highest in 53 years at 1.87 meters(6 feet, 1 inch)—has2calls to create an administration that recognized the uniqueness of Venice, for both its concentration of treasuries andits3vulnerability.Flood damage has been4estimated at hundreds of millions of Euros (dollars), but the true range will only become clear with time. The frustration goes far beyond the failure to complete and5underwater barriers that were designed to prevent just the kind of damage that Venice has6this week. With the system not yet completed or even7tested after 16 years of work and 5 billion Euros ($5.5 billion) invested, many are suspicious it will even work.At the public level, proposals for better administering the cityincluding8some level of autonomy(自制) to Venice, already enjoyed by some Italian regions like Trentino-also-adage with its German-speaking minority, or offeringtax9to encourage Venice's repopulation.Just 53, 000 people live in the historic part of the city that tourists know as Venice, down by a third from a generation ago and dropping by about 1, 000 people a year. That means fewer people watching the neighborhood, monitoring for public maintenance10or neighbors in need. Many leave because of the increased expense or the daily difficulties in living in a city of canals, which can make even a simple errand a hard journey.三、完形填空Ecology is a complicated thing. Given the facts that elephant damage often kills trees and bush fires often kill trees, it would be1to assume that a combination of the two would make things worse. Contrary to this assumption,2, as the recently-published research by Benjamin Wigley shows, if a tree has already been damaged, firecan3help to make things better.One common way in which elephants harm trees is by stripping(剥)them of their bark(树皮). Dr Wigley, who did indeed start from the obvious4, set off to find out how much worse bush fires would make the effects of this bark stripping. To serve this purpose, he set up a study in the Kruger National Park. Since 1954, the Kruger has been the site of experiments in which plots of land have been burned5, to understand the effects of fire on plain ecology. In these experiments, Dr Wigley looked at trees in three different zones, in one of which, the trees were burned every year; in the second, they were burned every other year, while the third zone, by contrast, was actively6fire. To keep things consistent, he looked at the fate of the same tree species, the marula(马鲁拉树), in all three zones. He picked marulas because they areparticular7of elephant activity. Their fruit are delicious, and prized by elephants and people alike. But elephants also seem to enjoy eating their bark. In July 2016 he and his colleagues identified 20 marulas in every zone and used special toolsto8from each of them a circular section of bark 5cm in diameter. Having imposed this damage, they9the wounds over the course of the following two years, to see what would happen. To their10, they discovered that the wounds of trees in fire zones recovered far better than those of trees that had seen no fires at all. Wounded trees in the annual burn zone re-grew 98% of their lost11during the two years of the study. Those living in the biennial(两年一次的)burn zone re-grew 92% of it. But those in the zone where fires were12re-grew only 72%.The researchers also found something else when they were measuring the trees' wounds: ants. Ten of the 20 trees in the fire-prevention zone developed ant colonies in their wounds. The ants in question were a species that is known to damage trees and is supposed to13tissue healing. By contrast, only five trees in the biennial burn zone and three in the annual zone developed ants' eats in their wounds. It looks, therefore, as if bush fires are treating trees' wounds by killing ants thatmight14colonize and damage them. Though such fires are surely harmful to healthy trees, it seems, in an example of two negatives making a positive, as if they areactually15to sick ones.A. difficultB. reasonableC. necessaryD. awfulA. howeverB. thereforeC. furthermoreD. somehowA. uniquelyB. barelyC. actuallyD. merelyA. phenomenonB. evidenceC. imaginationD. assumptionA. equallyB. regularlyC. severelyD. purposelyA. burnt withB. protected fromC. covered byD. exposed toA. participantsB. partnersC. victimsD. friendsA. markB. removeC. hitD. measureA. regulatedB. checkedC. healedD. monitoredA. disappointmentB. surpriseC. joyD. reliefA. vitalityB. heightC. barkD. strengthA. controlledB. preventedC. startedD. boostedA. disturbB. promoteC. impactD. quickenA. thereforeB. neverthelessC. thenD. otherwiseA. beneficialB. unbelievableC. effectiveD. cruel四、阅读理解4、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模(A篇)第56~59题There was something in the elderly woman's behavior that caught my eye. Although slow and unsure of step, the woman moved with deliberation, and there was no hesitation in her gestures. She was as good as anyone else, her movements suggested. And she TAL#NBSP had a job to do.The elderly woman had walked into the store along with a younger woman who I guessed was her daughter. The daughter was displaying a serious case of impatience, rolling her eyes, huffing and sighing, checking her watch every few seconds. If she had possessed a belt, her mother would have been fastened to it as a means of dragging her along to keep step with the rush of other shoppers.The older woman detached from the younger one and began to glance over the DVDs on the nearest shelf. After the slightest hesitation, I walked over and asked if I could help her find something. The woman smiled up at me and showed me a title scrawled(潦草地写)on a crumpled piece of paper. The title was unusual and a bit unfamiliar. Clearly a person looking for it knew a little about movie's, about quality.Rather than rushing off to locate the DVD for the woman, I asked her to walk with me so I could show her where she could find it. Looking back, I think I wanted to enjoy her company for a moment. Something about her deliberate movements reminded me of my own mother, who'd passed away the previous Christmas.As we walked along the back of the store, I narrated its floor plan: old television shows, action movies, cartoons, science fiction. The woman seemed glad of the unrushed company and casual conversation.We found the movie, and I complimented her on her choice. She smiled and told me it was one she'd enjoyed when she was her son's age and that she hoped he would enjoy it as much as she had. Maybe, she said with a hint of eagerness, he could enjoy it with his own young children. Then, reluctantly, I had to return the elderly woman to her keeper, who was still tapping her foot at the front of the store.I accompanied the older woman to the queue at the cash register and then stepped back and lingered near the younger woman. When the older woman's turn in line came, she paid in cash, counting out the dollars and coins with the same sureness she'd displayed earlier…(1) What does "she had a job to do" (Para. 1) mean according to the context?A. She had a regular job in the store.B. She wanted to ask for help.C. She wanted to buy a DVD.D. She was thinking of what to buy.(2) What does the title of the DVD reveal according to the shop assistant?A. The elderly woman had some knowledge about movies.B. The elderly woman liked movies for young children.C. The elderly woman preferred movies her son liked.D. The elderly woman liked both old and new movies.(3) While looking for the DVD with the old woman, the shop assistant was.A. hesitantB. casualC. cautiousD. considerate(4) What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To describe what a movie nut is like.B. To remind readers to spending more time accompanying family.C. To stress the importance of company and understanding.D. To explore the key aspects of current parental-child relationship.5、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模(B篇)第60~62题As unpleasant emotions go, anxiety is the roughest. It's a vague, pit-of-the-stomach fear that sneaks up to you—that unease you get when your boss says that she needs to talk to you right away, when the phone rings at 4:00 a.m., or when your dentist looks into your mouth and says "Hmm" for the third time.Lingering anxiety can keep you up at night, make you irritable, undermine your ability to concentrate, and ruin your appetite. And the constant state of readiness generated by anxiety—adrenaline pumping, heart racing, palms sweating—may contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease.How to prevent anxiety then?Meditate.Maybe you're just high-strung. If so, meditation(冥想) is worth a try. It cultivates a calmness that eases anxious feelings and offers a sense of control. A study at the University of Massachusetts found that volunteers who took an 8-week meditation course were considerably less anxious afterward. People who are high-strung find that they are dramatically calmer with 20 minutes of meditation in the morning and another 20 minutes after dinner.Jog, walk, swim, or cycle. If you can't make time for meditation, be sure to make time for regular exercise. Exercise can have the same calming effect as meditation, particularly if it's something repetitive like running or swimming laps.Treatment?Remember to breathe. When you're anxious, you tend to hold your breath or breathe too shallowly. That makes you feel more anxious. Breathing slowly and deeply can have a calming effect. To make sure that you're breathing correctly, place your hand on your diaphragm(横膈膜), just below your rib cage (胸腔). Feel it rise with each inhalation(吸气) and fall with each exhalation.Let's say you are anxious about your competence on the job. Ask yourself "What, in particular, am I afraid that I'll mess up? " Maybe you're afraid that you get further behind and miss your deadlines. Or maybe you're worried that you're blowing it whenever you present your ideas in meetings. Are your worries founded? Have you had several near misses with deadlines? Are your suggestions routinely rejected? If not, the anxiety is needless. If there is a real problem, work on a solution: Pace yourself to better meet deadlines, or join a public speaking class.(1) Which of the following symptoms is NOT directly caused by anxiety?A. Lower in concentration.B. No appetite.C. Heart racing.D. High blood pressure.(2) According to the passage, what can be done to avoid anxiety?A. Exercising regularly.B. Keeping breath steady.C. Breathing with the help of hands.D. Adjusting the pace of life.(3) What is the last paragraph about?A. Anxiety at work and its solutions.B. People's anxiety about their capabilities.C. The reason for someone's incompetence.D. The function of public speaking class.6、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模(C篇)第63~66题Archaeologists used DNA taken from a broken clay pipe stem found in Maryland to build a picture of an enslaved woman who died around 200 years ago and had origins in modern. day Sierra Leone. One researcher called the work "a mind-blower.""In this particular con text, and from that time period, I think it's a first, " team member Hannes Schroeder told The Washington Post. "To be able to get DNA from an object like a pipe stem is quite exciting. Also it is exciting for descendant(后裔)communities… Through this technology, they're able to make a connection not only to the site but potentially back to Africa."The pipe stem was found at the Belvoir plantation in Crownsville, Maryland, where enslaved people lived until 1864 and where a likely slave cemetery was recently found. DNA taken from the pipe linked back to a woman either directly from or descended from the Mende people, who lived in west Africa, in an area now part of Sierra.Julie Schablitsky, the chief archaeologist with the Maryland state highway administration, told The Post the discovery, based on saliva(唾液)absorbed into the clay pipe, was a "mind-blower". She alsosaid records show the existence of a slave trade route Sierra Leone to Annapolis, plied(定期往来)by British and American ships. "As soon as people stepped on those slave ships in Africa, " she said, "whether they were from Benin or whether they were from Sierra Leone, wherever they were from, that identity was lost. Their humanity is stripped from. Who they are as a people has gone."The new analysis is part of ongoing research around Belvoir that has given descendants of the people enslaved there new insight into the lives of their ancestors. Speaking to The Post, Nancy Daniels, a genealogist from Laurel, Maryland, who thinks she is a descendant of enslaved families from Belvoir but was not linked to the research on the pipe, called the discovery "overwhelming." "I'm sitting here about ready to cry, " she said. "I'm sorry. I'm so happy … Thank God for the DNA."This year, events and ceremonies are being held to mark the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved people in America, at Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619. Slavery was effectively abandoned in the US on 1 January 1863, with the issue by Abraham Lincoln of the Emancipation Proclamation. It formally ended in December 1865, after the civil war, with the approval of the 13th amendment(修正案).(1) What does the phrase "a mind-blower" in paragraphs 1 and 4 refer to?A. A surpriseB. A confusionC. An excitementD. A fascination(2) According to Hannes Schroeder, the pipe stem was of great significancebecause.A. it was the first direct evidence that slaves living in Maryland were originally from Africa.B. it helped the archaeologists to draw a portrait of the enslaved woman.C. it might contribute to identifying the birthplace of the descendant communities.D. it contained genic clues to the ancestral background of its owner.(3) What can be inferred from the passage?A. The owner of the pipe once lived in what is now an area in west Africa.B. The history of slavery in America is an ongoing topic of concern.C. African slaves lost their identities when they arrived at the Belvoir plantation.D. Nancy Daniels, a genealogist was sorry for not being involved in the research.(4) Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. DNA from an old pipe throws lights on the origins of the enslavedB. A new research reveals the origins of enslaved African womanC. The descendants of enslaved people seek their identitiesD.

But in 2008, Cowan's Auctions in Cincinnati sold a lemon blackened with age for $2, 350.What was so special about this lemon?1According to a handwritten note in ink attached to a partly sealed bottle containing the lemon, the fruit was picked in May 1842 by Washington's "old gardener" some 43 years after the first president's death.Two thousand dollars is a lot to pay for produce, even from the estate of a founding father. This sale, however, just might be considered a bargain compared with prices paid for other historical collectibles in recent years.2Collecting a piece of history, or an object associated with a famous person, is not brand new. Ordinary objects with extraordinary stories have increasingly been coming to auction and achieving high prices, says Thomas veining, director of christine's department of books and manuscripts in London. Prices are being driven up, he says, by collectors in the U.S. And, increasingly, in Asia. The Hawking wheel chair, for example, was purchased by a private museum in China.3For one thing, their history of ownership is both crucial and sometimes difficult to prove. Photographs of the famous person with the object, as well as documentation(such as letters, diaries or re collections by acquaintances referring to the object) can alsohelp.4To evaluate the value of a Picasso painting, one can look at recent prices paid for other Picasso paintings of the same period, similar size or style. Finding another recent sale of a lemon planted by George Washington is a different matter.Katie Horstman, head of Cowan's American History department, says she could find no comparable items for the lemon as she prepared the piece for its auction. Ms. Horstman nevertheless eventually arrivedat the estimated value at $3, 000 to $4, 000, she says, by researching auction records for objects somehow associated with Washington that had appeared on the market.Cowans ended up estimating the value of the lemon at $3, 000 to $4, 000, according to description on its website. Objects associated with Washington these days, Ms. Horstman says, can sell for anywhere from 1, 000 up to tens of thousands of dollars.A. Stephen Hawking's wheelchair fetched 296, 750 at a sale at Christine's in London last November.B. Yet determining potential values of such objects isn't easy.C. It was said to be from a tree planted by George Washington at Mount Vernon.D. The auction result surely drew the attention from both the business and economics worlds.E. The uniqueness of many of these objects further complicates efforts to put a value on them.F. Therefore the unique value of many objects proved the worth of collection.六、短文缩写8、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模第71题Directions: Read the following passage.

Use your own words as far as possible.Lower Oxygen Levels Threaten Marine LifeOxygen in the oceans is being lost at an alarming rate, with "dead zones" expanding rapidly and hundreds more areas showing oxygen dangerously exhausted, putting sharks, tuna, marlin and other large fish species at particular risk. Dead zones, where oxygen is effectively absent, have quadrupled(翻两番) in extent in the last half-century, and there are also at least 700 areas where oxygen is at dangerously low levels, up from 45 when research was undertaken in the 1960s.The reasons behind this environmental collapse are multiple. Among all, pollutants generated by the industrial world have been the most destructive force to cause the unbalance, including a rising tide of plastic waste, as well as other pollutants. Seas are about 26% more acidic than in pre-industrial times because of absorbing the excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, with damaging impacts on shellfish in particular.Low oxygen levels are also associated with global heating, because the warmer water holds less oxygen and the heating causes stratification(分层), so there is less of the vital mixing of oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor layers. Oceans are expected to lose about 3-4% of their oxygen by the end of this century, but the impact will be much greater in the levels closest to the surface, where many species are concentrated, and in the mid to high latitudes.Another major cause for lower oxygen is intensive farming. When excess artificial fertilizer from crops, or wastes from the meat industry, runs off the land and into rivers and seas, it feeds algae(藻类)which bloom and then cause oxygen consumption as they die and decay.The problem of dead zones has been known about for decades, but little has been done to tackle it. Now is high time to take actions and help the oceans function better.七、翻译9、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模第72题翻译面对紧急情况时,他是多么的冷静啊!(How)10、【来源】 2020年上海奉贤区高三一模第73题翻译致力于保护濒临灭绝的海洋生物,人人有责。
