With the world' s population estimated to grow from six to nine billion by 2050, researchers,businesses and governments are already dealing with the impact, this increase will have on every-thing from food and water to infrastructure (基础设施)and jobs. Underling all this 46 will be the demand for energy, which is expected to double over the next 40 years.
Finding the resources to meet this demand in a 47, sustainable way is the cornerstone (基石) of our nation' s
energy security, and will be one of the major 48 of the 21st century. Alternative forms of energy-bio-fuels, wind and solar, to name a few--are 49 being funded and developed, and will play a growing 50 in the world' s energy supply. But experts say that even when 51 , alternative energy sources will likely meet only about 30% of the world' s energy needs by 2049.
For example, even with 52 investments, such as the $ 93 million for wind energy development 53 in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, important alternative energy sources such as wind and bio fuels 54 only about 1% of the market today.
Energy and sustainability experts say the answer to our future energy needs will likely come from a lot of 55 --both traditional and alternative.

参考译文
据估计，到2050年，世界人口将从60亿增长至90亿，研究人员、企业和各国政府已经开始着手应对人口增长会对从食物、水资源到基础设施及就业等各方面带来的影响。
在这一增长的背后将是对能源的需求，这种需求预计在未来的40年内将翻一番。
找到能够稳定而持续地满足这种需求的资源是我们国家能源安全的基石，也将是21世纪的主要挑战之一。
这些可替代能源，如生物燃料、风能和太阳能，必定将会得到投资和发展，并且将在世界能源供应中扮演着越来越重要的角色。
但是专家指出，即使将所有可替代能源都结合起来，到2050年，或许只能满足世界能源需求的30%左右。
例如，即使有了大额投资，如《美国复苏与再投资法案》通过的为开发风能的9300万美元投资，像风能和生物燃料这样的重要可替代能源却仅占了当今市场份额的l%。
能源和可持续发展方面的专家称，要满足将来的能源需求，可能要依赖于多种解决方案，既包括传统能源又包括可替代能源。
答案及解析
46.【答案】H
【解析】空格前面为指示代词this，后面为谓语动词will be，由此可知空格中应填单数名词。
this是对上文的概括，指的应该是上文提到的人口增长，故此处应填入与上文increase同义的词，growth 符合文意。
47.【答案】A
【解析】根据逗号后面的sustainable可知，此处需填入形容词，与sus.tainable并列共同修饰way，且意义与sustainable类似。
stable“稳定的”与sustainable“可持续的”语义相近，符合语境，故选stable。
48.【答案】N
【解析】根据空格前的0ne of the major可推断此处需填入名词的复数形式。
上文提到能源需求不断增加，此空所在段的段末谈及可替换能源或许只能满足世界能源需求的30%左右，由此可见，要找到充足的能源是一种“挑战”，challenges符合文意。
competitions 多指人或机构为了某种利益而竞争，此处没有“抢夺能源”这种语境，所以排除。
49.【答案}o
【解析】此处需填入副词，修饰空格后的动词词组being funded
and de—veloped。
下文接着说的是可替代能源在世界能源供给中扮演越来越重要的角色，由此可推断资助发展可替代能源是理所当然的事情，故选certainly。
此处填入备选的另一个副词exactly(准确地，精确地)语义不通。
50.【答案】D
【解析】根据a growing可知空格处应填入名词的单数形式。
play a…in提示了此处选role，play a role in是固定搭配，表示“在…中起作用”。
51.【答案】M
【解析】分析句子结构可知，when引导的时间状语从句省略了主语和be动词，结合句意可知，空格处的单词与alternative energy SourceS是被动关系，故此处应填动词的过去分词形式。
由句子大意可推断，此处所填的词有“合在一起，结合”的意思，故combined(使结合，联合)符合句意。
52.【答案】c
【解析】根据空格前的介词with和其后的名词investment可知，此处需填人形容词，修饰investments。
下文用such as举例说到9300万美元，由此可知投资数额是比较大的，significant“相当数量的”符合文意。
marvelous多表示对事物的惊奇和赞美，意为“极好的;绝妙的”，故可排除。
53.【答案】G
【解析】此处需填入分词形式，该分词跟介词in搭配，作$93
million for wind energy development的后置定语。
空后内容是一项法案，应该是风能开发的投资被包含在法案当中，included符合句意，be included in表示“被包含在内的”。
54.【答案】K
【解析】此处需填人谓语动词，结合复数形式的主语alternative energy sources和句末的today，可知此处应该是动词原形。
comprise和con-sist均有“包含，组成”之义，但consist需后接介词of才能跟宾语(此处1%是数词作宾语)，故选comprise。
55.【答案】B
【解析】根据空格前的a lot of可知此处需填入名词的复数形式。
The answer to…提示此处有“解决…的方法”之意，solutions(解决方法，处理手段)符合语义。

PartBThe greenhouse effect might be causing the change, but it' s a cycle that' s been tracked for about a hundred years and in the past 20 years or so it just stopped cycling. And this is only affecting a small part of the world. People talk about greenhouse effect because they want to show how much concern they have about the future of the world. Don' t be as silly as them.Kac:Spring just hits here, too. It' s so nice--windows open, the fresh air of changing seasons just lights me up. When I was younger this was the season for walking through the melting snow and ice, across roadsides, through square acre forests among the fields, I got so excited to be out in the wild. It' s tough to be in the city this time of year. Maybe I' 11 go camping soon !Sofia:In the city you don't have seasons. Spring rain does not make man-made structure grow, and wet roads are not inconvenient for you because you can move around in your car. Summer' s heat is no longer a problem and air-conditioning makes your rooms cool as autumn. The colors of the city don't change because nature is not powerful enough to change them as she changes the color of woods. Winter snow leaves nothing white but muddy roads.harno:Snow in Georgia is a funny thing. We have been having 24 hours weather news on the TV for the past week, just because there is a threat of snow. Schools have closed based on these predic- tions, and all we got was rain. But the rule is that if it sticks to the ground, school is canceled. It would be a great excuse to get the day off. People rush to the grocery store to buy milk and bread-- I don't know why, but they do. When I was growing up here we used to get one or two big snow- falls a year, but there has not been any for the last few. Damn global wanning.Maeland:It' s been so nice. I am of the firm belief that in February we get the day like cool autumn season in November... In February it' s like a warm period that' s been getting stronger and longer every year since my boyhood, and it gets defeated by the final blowing snowstorm of March at least once, but any- one can survive(生存)those snowstorms, since we all know they' 11 be gone in a few days.Now match each of the people (36-40) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements36.Jennifer37. Kac38. Soscia39. Harno[ A ] Future is bright.[ B ] Man conquers nature.[ C ] We can see the effect of the pollution on the climate.[ D ] Human beings have to struggle hard against weather.40. Macland[ E ] The call of nature is there.[ F ] He hates spring.[ G ] Sometimes we worry too much about nothing.参考译文下面几段文字谈论了气候的变迁情况及各自对比的观点。

Kitchen DesignOver the years economic, social and technological factors have influenced the design of kitchens. Since it is often used simultaneously by both family members as well as guests, the kitchen requires not only a glamorous look but a practical one. Also, the design elements must meet the needs of the modern family.Environmental concerns have had an enormous impact on kitchen design. This concern includes recycling of house hold material, as well as energy efficient appliances and the purity of both water and air. Research shows that up to 85 percent of the population is concerned about what might be in their drinking water. They are also often dissatisfied with the taste and odor of what comes out of their tap. This is why it's important to consider adding a water filter system.The character of today's kitchen is very different from the way it was thirty years ago. There's more sophistication in food preparation, and more technological help with cooking and clean-up.When choosing cabinets, first consider the style. Use the architectural style of your house as a guide. Because cabinets are a big investment, it is best to choose quality. Popular styles in kitchen cabinets are framed panel doors with raised or recessed panels of wood, cabinet fronts with glass panes, or simple slabdoors in a rich painted or laminated finish. Cabinet pulls, don't be afraid to mix and match styles.Because many of today's kitchens consist of two of more cooks sharing in the meal preparation, there is a need for more counter space, cooktops and sinks. Although lifestyles are changing, the primary function of the kitchen as an area for preparing food has remained unchanged. The sink remains one of the most used areas in the kitchen as well as an important decorative statement.Appliance technology is moving at a very fast pace. Choosing what type of appliances as well as how many will depend on several factors such as how often and how much you cook and the size of your kitchen.Don't limit yourself to one of each kind of appliance. You can have a refrigerator in one place and a freezer in a separate area or two sets of cooktops, one on the counter next to the wall oven and one on an island. You can even have two dishwashers if size and budget require and permit---think of it as saving time in the long run.1.

You may approach life with the philosophy of the vegetable, in which case your life will consist in being born, eating, drinking, sleeping mating, growing old, and dying.__2__. A great many so-called successful men and women believe that life is a business, and they arrange their conduct and behavior accordingly. If you believe that life is a business your first question of life, naturally, is “what do I get out of it?” __3__.The great majority of human beings today look at life as if it were a business.__4__.The third attitude toward life is the approach of the artist. Here the basic philosophy is “what can I put into it? ”, and the basic relation of the individual to his follow-men is one of cooperation and common sense.__5__.

Ma——your ansumrs on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1An embarrassing experienceIt was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport.I had cabled Lond trom Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before Ireached my fiat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do morethan state that I carried no goods liable to duty. I was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed mydiplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so fired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, "have you read this?" I replied with extreme foolishness, "Yes, hundreds of times. ""And you have nothing to declare?""Nothing. ""How long have you been out of this country?""About three months. ""And during that time you have acquired nothing?""Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. "He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected."Where did you get that watch?"I could have kicked myself. Two days ago, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey.I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement."It is not a question of confiscation," he said, "there is a finefor failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?"It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage.26. When did the writer arrive at London airport?[A] In the early morning. [B] Late at night.[ C] At noon. [ D] Late in the morning.27. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer?[ A] He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions.[ B ] He must have noticed the writer' s ugly watch.[ C ] He wanted to embarrass the writer.[ D] He must have noticed the writer's tiredness.28. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market?[ A] He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex.[ B ] He found the watch useful though it was very cheap.[ C ] He didn't like the watch at all.[D] He was indifferent to the watch.29. What must have happened to the writer in the end?[ A] He must have spent a long time at the customs and must have been let go without any punishment.[ B ] He must have been given a fine as a punishment.[ C] His Rolex must have been confiscated.[ D ]His cheap watch must have been confiscated.30. What do you think is the tone of the story?[ A] Humorous. [ B] Sarcastic.[ C 1 Solemn. [ D ] Matter-of-fact.参考译文一次尴尬的经历当我们到达伦敦机场的时候还是凌晨，我已经从阿姆斯特丹往伦敦过电报了，预租了一辆车等我们，但是在我到达公寓之前又发生了一倒霉的事。

9月公共英语三级考试阅读习题及答案
9月公共英语三级考试阅读习题及答案2017年9月公共英语三级考试阅读习题及答案Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的2017年9月公共英语三级考试阅读习题及答案，希望能给大家带来帮助!Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up in the morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time o f day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, Peter! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up stea m and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.1. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C] he is not sure when his energy is low.[D] he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.2. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D] Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.3. If one wants to work efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier4. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B] help you to control your temper early in the day[C] enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D] keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A] Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B] Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C] Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D] Children have energy cycles, too.参考答案：1. D 第二段“The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening”。

In the months that followed, six of its commercial tenants ran off. They did not want to be in the tallest anything, anywhere, anymore. At a time when U.S. Vice president Dick Cheney was still being shuttled around to undisclosed locations, skyscrapers suddenly seemed like the most disclosed locations. For a while, it looked as though the tall building, at least in the U.S., might be one more casualty of war.Three years later, despite fears of terrorist attacks, big is beautiful again. On July 4, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg presided at the World Trade Center site. New skyscraper projects are under way once more elsewhere in the city and around the U.S. Meanwhile, outside the states, where the taste for tall buildings never really faded, the skyscraper has also been poking its head up in very different ways, and not just for reasons having to do with security. Since the 1990s, tall buildings have been reshaped by a number of global architecture stars whose vision is finally beginning to penetrate the more conservation American market.Some of the best examples of that rethinking now fill two large galleries of the Museum of Modern Art’s temporary outpost in Queens, New York. Using 25 spectacular architectural models (some of more than 4 m high), “Tall buildings”, a show that runs at MOMA through Sept.27, looks at the ways in which the skyscraper has eyolyed the early 1990s, at least in the hands of its most gifted practitioners, the kind who are proposing-and even producing, but usually in other nations-buildings that don’t resemble the dull boxes that crowd most American downtowns.Engineering is, among others, a path to new kinds of beauty. Just look at Renzo piano’s London Bridge Tower, a slender glass pyramid that forms a glittering stalagmite against the old city’s skyline. You get a grasp of what ingenious engineering is all about from the London Headquarters of the insurance firm Swiss Re, designed by Norman Foster. Even before it opened in April, it was known as the small cucumber because it rises against the sky like a green pickle. But the building’s single feature is the inclusion of larger interior gardens throughout. But there’s a dematerializing spirit even in a building that didn’t requiring new fears of engineering-the Arcos Bosques Corporativo in Mexico City, an arched tower with a vertical slot down its center that lightens the building’s mass brings the sky itself into play.“Not only did American invent skyscraper”, says the Spanish designer Santiago Calatrava, “it invented the skyline.” But American skylines have got a little dull. With some work, the world’s architects might bring them back to a very tall standard.参考译文:世贸大厦倒榻的那一天，帝国大厦又一次成为纽约最高的建筑。

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Text 1Sometime in the middle of the 15th century, a well-to-do merchant from London buried more than 6,700 gold and silver coins on a sloping, hillside in Surrey. He was fleeing the War of the Ro-ses and planned to return during better times. But he never did. The coins lay undisturbed until one September evening in 1990, when local resident Roger Mintey chanced upon them with a metal de-tector, a device used to determine the presence of metals. Mintey's find much of.which now sits in the British Museum-earned him roughly $350,000, enough to quit his job with a small manu- facturer and spend more time pursuing lost treasure.But digging up the past is controversial in Britain. In many European countries, metal detecto- fists, or people using metal detectors, face tough regulations. In the U. K., however, officials in- troduced a scheme in 1997 encouraging hobbyists to report their discoveries (except for those fall- ing under the definition of treasure, like Mintey's find, which they are required to report)--but al- lowing them to keep what they find, or receive a reward. Last year, a hidden store was uncoveredin a field outside Birmingham. It consists of more than 1,500 gold and silver objects from the sev- enth century and was valued at more than $4.5 million. While local museums hurry to raise enough money to keep the find off the open market, it sits in limbo, owned by the Crown but fa- cing claims by the landowner and the metal detectorist who found it.The find marks the latest battleground in the increasingly heated conflict between the country's 10,000-20,000 metal detectorists and the museum workers determined to protect its precious old objects. Supporters say the scheme stems the loss of valuable information about precious old ob-jects, while opponents argue that metal detectorists don't report everything.The debate centers on the larger question of who owns the past. "There's been a slow move over the centuries that precious old things belong to us all," says Professor Christopher Chippindale of Cambridge University. But in Britain at least, the temptation of buried treasure could change all that.46. According to the first paragraph, the coins in Surrey wereA. worth roughly $350,000B. possessed by a local residentC. unearthed about 500 years agoD. left by a merchant during a war47. What do we know about Roger Mintey?A. He produces metal detectors.B. He owns a manufacturing firm.C. He works for the British Museum.D. He seeks buried treasure as a hobby.48. In the U. K., metal detectoristsA. are rewarded for whatever they findB. are forced to obey tough regulationsC. may keep what they have discoveredD. should report whatever they discover49. As for the find outside Birmingham, it is still unclearA. how much it is worthB. how it was discoveredC. who is entitled to itD. what it is made up of50. According to Professor Christopher Chippindale, buried treasureA. is owned by the publicB. is debated in a heated wayC. remains a big temptationD. turns precious over time全国英语三级真题及答案Part AText 1在15世纪中期，一位来自伦敦的富有商人将6700多枚金币和银币埋藏在萨里的一座倾斜的山坡里。
