AAlmost all animals need to sleep to stay healthy. But sleeping can be dangerous. Other animals may hunt sleeping animals. Animals have many different ways of sleeping that help them stay safe. Some of these ways may surprise you!Almost all bats sleep upside down. They hang by their feet from a branch or from the inner surface of the top of a cave. Up high, bats are safe from most other animals. If they are in danger, they just fly away.Giraffes sleep the least. They lie down when they sleep. They rest their heads on their bodies or on the ground. Every few hours, they sleep for about ten minutes. Giraffes are not safe if they sleep for long periods.Some ducks sleep with just half their brains. These ducks often sleep in a line. The ducks at both ends help keep the group safe. They keep one eye open to watch for danger. The ducks in the middle sleep deeply with both eyes closed.Horses often sleep standing up. Their legs lock in place so they dont fall over. If a horse is lying down, it needs a long time to get up. A horse can run from danger more quickly if it is already standing.Some seabirds can sleep while they fly. These large birds spend most of their lives over the ocean. They are in danger on the water,but they are safe in the air. They fly smoothly through the air for many hours without using their wings.

The comings and goings of family members has become unpredictable.There is a lot of hurry going on. Family life suddenly changes to the evening. Sometimes Sunday is the only day left that brings family to dinner table. It,s not until youre on holiday that you realize youve been riding a high-speed train all this time, seldom noticing the scenery.But a holiday also has bad weather and unpleasant surprises. Looking back, these unpleasant surprises, if they end well,are the ones that are recounted with a smile of resignation (顺从),thus turning into lasting memories.25.

When he read news reports about injured retired soldiers returning from Afghanistan (阿富汗),he immediately thought he could use his robotics knowledge to make their lives at home a little easier. UI want to be an Air Force pilots Joseph says. “So it felt good to think that I could help the army m some small way.”The teen turned his family living room into a workshop and took a year to create a motorized pulley (滑轮) system to help soldiers exercise. The equipment also has a built-in sensor (感应器) that monitors and adjusts weights to provide the right amount of resistance.Josephs father, Vijay, an electrical engineer, offered technical assistance, and a University of Akron computer science professor taught the youngster software coding. Joseph tested the original model on a giant teddy bear.In September 2014, Joseph showed and explained how his equipment worked at the World Maker Faire New York, a gathering of amateur inventors. Now hes putting on the final touches and has asked for a patent (专利). His goal is to have the equipment approved for official testing at retired soldiers hospitals, but first hes turning his attention to his studies. “I have high school to finish and college to start, so it might take a year or two to test the equipment in real life,” says Joseph.Regardless of the timeline, giving back will always be part of Josephs life, he says. “My parents taught me that if youre blessed with a talent, you use it to help others.”29.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Where do new words come from? Few are purely ___41___, in the sense of being coined from a string of sounds chosen more or less at random. Most tend to be existing words given new meaning. ___42___, a word changes its parts of speech. And in some of the most creative instances, people chop words and ___43___ them to make new ones.“New Danish Words, With Origin”a book by Jorgen Norby Jensen, shows how ___44___ new Danish forms are created by Danes from Danish roots for specifically Danish circumstances. Instead, the great majority come, one way or another, from English.The ___45___ examples are those that are borrowed wholesale. Mr Jensen offers“foodie”,“selfie”,“clickbait”,“blog”and“Brexit”. Words of more exotic(国外的)origin include“emoji”and“barista”,which have their origins in Japanese and Italian. But these too, Mr Jensen writes, come through English, not ___46___ from those languages.In another category are“___47___”words and expressions that are unknown to English-speakers. Danes have long said that someone who is fresh and ready to go is“fit for fight”. Such faux-anglicisms are common in other languages too: the German Handy(mobile phone)or Kicker(table football),or the French tennisman and tenniswoman. Although linguistic(语言学的)experts in these countries ___48___ these words—it is bad enough to have to borrow English words, but even worse to counterfeit(造假)them, they cannot seem to stop them. But the book of new Danish words shows an even deeper kind of ___49___. Even where words appear Danish, they are often simply part-for-part translations of English words: vejvrede is“road rage”,undskyld mit franske is“pardon my French”,and svingvaelger,“swing voter”. This shows that globalisation is not only in the surface traffic of words, but in the deeper exchange of ___50___.This is not to say that other languages do not ___51___ coin their own words anymore. InDannish, svenskerhar and bundeslighar,“Swede hair”or“Bundesliga hair”,both refer to the cut known in English as a mullet. And curling-foraeldre,“curling parents”,is an interesting ___52___ on“helicopter parents”: rather than hovering over their children, they sweep all obstacles out of their way.So English borrowing is not entirely ___53___ native creativity, even if the heavy thumbprint of English on virtually every language in the globalized world is increasingly clear. This is not because English is particularly wonderful or flexible in itself; it is more to do with the influence of innovations from English speaking countries.It may be that the spread of concepts from English out, rather than the other way round, is in fact to the discredit of the English-speaking world. Words spread from English because people learn English; cultural secrets are more likely to be ___54___ in other cultures where outsiders cannot find them. Perhaps English speakers are the real ___55___ in this exchange.41. A. invented B. chosen C. pronounced D. known42. A. Without any reason B. On the wholeC. To some degreeD. In other cases43. A. re-read B. repeated C. re-discover D. recombine44. A. often B. rarely C. slowly D. fast45. A. obvious B. strange C. abstract D. conflicting46. A. reasonably B. surprisingly C. directly D. necessarily47. A. German B. Danish C. English D. French48. A. criticize B. accept C. use D. remove49. A. knowledge B. influence C. concern D. prejudice50.

A. replacing B. promoting C. demanding D. rewarding54. A. introduced B. revealed C. buried D. protected55. A. importers B. exporters C. gainers D. losersSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)If you watch wolves, it’s hard to escape t he conclusion that perhaps no two species are more alike behaviorally than wolves and humans. We can easily recognize the social structures in wolf packs. No wonder human males often face pressure to measure up as“alpha”males—to“wolf up”,as it were. The te rm alpha male implies a man who at every moment demonstrates that he’s in control in the home and who can become aggressive.This alpha male stereotype(固定印象)comes from a misunderstanding of the real thing. “The main characteristic of an alpha male wolf,” the wolf researcher Rick McIntyre told me as we were watching gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park, “is a quiet confidence, quietself-assurance.”The point is, alpha males are not aggressive. There is an evolutionary logic to it.“Imagine two wolf packs, or two human tribes,” McIntyre said. “Which is more likely to survive and reproduce: the one whose members are more cooperative, more sharing, less violent with one another, or the group whose members are beating each other up and competing with one another?”McIntyre has spent 20 years watching and studying wolves in Yellowstone for the National Park Service. He rises early, uses radio telemetry to locate a pack through a radio-collared pack member, then heads out with his spotting scope to observe the animals, keeping careful notes of their activities. In all that time, he has rarely seen an alpha male act aggressively toward the pack’s other members.This does not mean that alpha males are not tough when they need to be. One famous wolf in Yellowstone whose radio collar number, 21, became his name, was considered a “super wolf” by the people who closely observed the arc of his life. He was fierce in defense of family and apparently never lost a fight with a rival pack. Yet within his own pack, one of his favorite things was to wrestle with little wolves and to pretend to lose.One year, a pup was a bit sickly. The other pups seemed to be afraid of him and wouldn’t play with him. Once, after delivering food for the small pups, 21 stood looking around for something. Soon he started wagging his tail. He’d been looking for the sickly little pup, and he went over just to hang out with him for a while.Of all McIntyre’s stories about the super wolf, that’s his favorite. Strength impresses us. But kindness is what we remember best.56. What do people usually think of“alpha males”?A. They are the group of wolves that resemble humans most.B. They are dominant not only at home but also away from home.C. They are fond of fighting against pressure from opponents.D. They are a necessary part of humans’social structures.57. McIntyre is quoted in paragraph 5 in order to ______.A. show alpha male wolves’ characteristic helps their packs surviveB. prove cooperative wolves are more likely to be alpha male wolvesC. stress that being willing to share is what wolves have in commonD. illustrate than an alpha male wolf is born to be touch and aggressive58. After a wolf pack gets a prey(猎物),what will an alpha male wolf most likely do?A. Compete with other pack membersB. Keep it in a place unknown to his packC. Wait until his pack has eaten and is fullD. Make sure that no pack member eats it alone59. It is 21’s _____ that will leave McIntyre and the w riter a lasting impression.A. attackB. defenseC. strengthD. kindness(B)Dear Thomas and Luke,Thanks for your question. First of all, I should mention that not all birds have their eyes on the sides of their heads. Pigeons, parrots and sparrows do, but other birds, such as owls and hawks, have large eyes placed close together at the front of their heads.Whether they have eyes at the front or on the sides of their heads, all birds can still see straight ahead. But that doesn’t mean all birds see things in the same way. In fact, where a bird’s eyes are on its head can tell us a lot about how it sees the world.Where a bird’s eyes are on its head affects its field of vision—that’s how much it can see in front and to the side at any one time. Think about how far you can see to either side without turning your head: these are the limits of your own field of vision.Because owls have eyes at the front of their heads, they have a smaller field of vision—around 150 degrees for a barn owl.Parrots, pigeons and other birds with eyes on the sides of their heads have a much bigger field of vision, of about 300 degrees. Amazingly, this means that they can see in front and a long way to the side, at the same time.Where the eyes are placed decides how a bird views its surroundings using different types of vision. Binocular vision means both eyes focus on the same object at the same time, and eye movement is coordinated—this is the kind of vision that predatory birds such as owls rely on most. Monocular vision means each eye is focused on a different object at any particular moment, and this is normal for parrots and pigeons. Having different kinds of vision helps different kinds of birds survive in the wild.For parrots and pigeons, having eyes on the sides of their heads is a huge advantage. Having a wider field of vision with only a small blind spot behind them lets these birds see where they are going, while also keeping an eye out for predators which might be trying to attack them.For predatory raptors such as barn owls, having forward-facing eyes helps them to see depth and distance much more clearly, since both eyes can focus on the same object at the same time. This is perfect for spotting and catching small prey such as field mice.So though it might s eem like birds with eyes on the side of their heads can’t see where they are going, they can see forward and sideways at the same time, and in fact can see much more than those with eyes facing forwards.60. Which of the following is most likely to be Tho mas and Luke’s question?A. Which kind of birds can see farthest than others?B. Do birds see with their eyes, like we do, or with something else.C. Bird’s eyes are on the side so how do they see where they’re going?D. Birds have eyes that vary in size so why can they see to either side?61. The picture on the right shows _____ field of vision.A. parrots’B. pigeons’C. sparrows’D. owls’62. Which of the following statements is true of the birds that have eyes on the sides?A. They can focus on two things at the same time.B. They have a relatively bigger blind spot behind.C. They can see either see forward or sideways at a time.D. They are better at locating and catching small animals.(C)Monstrous oceanic waves are able to transport boulders(巨石)weighing hundreds of tonnes. The finding helps explain how huge rocks end up atop high cliffs and also implies that storm waves can be more powerful and dangerous than previously thought.Until recently, the heaviest rock known to have been transported by waves was about 200 tonnes. Now Ronadh Cox of Williams College in Massachusetts and her colleagues have found a new record holder: a 620-tonne boulder, equivalent to roughly three Statues of Liberty.Cos found the boulder on the west coast of Ireland. The region was struck by some huge storms during the winter of 2013-2014. When she and her team examined photographs taken before and after the storms, they found the massive boulder had been moved about 2.5 metres.Many researchers didn’t think such heav y boulders could be moved by storm waves, says Cox.“Calculations and force-balancing equations suggested that storm waves did not have sufficient power, so there were people who argued strongly that only tsunamis were capable of moving such huge blocks,”sh e says.However, advances in buoy technology(浮标技术)are making possible more detailed measurements of storm waves, and we now know they can produce huge forces.“It’s fun to show that these giant boulders were moved around during storms, and to imagine the wild energy of the waves,”Cox says.Perhaps the most important part of the new work is its application to assessing dangers caused by waves to coastal areas. The team tracked not only the biggest boulders, but also the distribution of more than a thousand sm aller boulders at many sites along Ireland’s western coast. Cox says the pattern of boulder movements is a guide to the kinds of wave forces that Ireland’s coast, and other like it, might face during future storms.In December, Ireland’s Environmental Prot ection Agency published a report suggesting that storms may become more intense because of climate change; therefore, knowing just how powerful waves can be may prove vital for protecting coastlines where people are living.“A wave that can move a 600-tonn e rock can also move anything else that’s 600 tonnes,”says Cox.“And if storminess increases, as it may well with climate change, then that kind of wave power, currently occurring on remote, exposed coastlines, might be coming to coastlines that do not curr ently experience it.”Cox says it is unlikely the 620-tonne boulder is the biggest object that ocean waves can move. There are boulders in the study area that are even heavier and they bear signs of wave transport. However, they didn’t move during the storms in question, so we don’t yet have definitive evidence that waves can move them.63. What did Cox and her colleagues find?A. High cliffs were mysteriously under water for some time.B. The west coast of Ireland has suffered from more frequent storms.C. A boulder of 200 tonnes was transported by waves to a distant spot.D. A boulder thought too heavy to move traveled a certain distance.64. According to Cox, which of the following is also worth looking at?A. Where boulders arriveB. Where people want to liveC. How high the temperature will beD. How coastlines can defend storms65. It can be inferred from the passage that Cox’s research and finding is especially meaningful now because _____.A. climate change leads to stronger stormsB. buoy technology needs more applicationsC. heavier tocks are potential dangers to touristsD. more people are choosing to live in coastal areas66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Why are boulders traveling in a new direction?B. The biggest ever boulder moving aroundC. Let the boulders fall where they may beD. Boulders: a sign of climate changeSection CDirections:Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentencesHow and when should I exercise?The benefits of exercise have been duly noted and your resolutions have been made. Yes, you want to be fit and live a long and healthy life. ___67___According to standard advice issued by the World Health Organization, adults should be getting at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week to extend their lives, get fit, have stronger muscles and be a healthy weight. If that didn’t already sound a lot, the WHO ways to double that if you want to get further benefits.The good news for those who dislike sports is that it’s possible to stick to these guidelines without entering a gym or breaking into a jog. ___68___This idea fits with evidence from a study last year of more than 130,000 people in 17 countries, which found that walking to work and housework such as vacuuming or mopping the floor are activities enough to reduce the risk of early death by 28 per cent, as long as you do 150 minutes a week. If you aren’t one for housework, you will be pleased to hear that your weekly amount of exercise can be put into the weekend with no ill effects, says Gray O’Donovan of Loughborough University, UK. ___69___ But his team analysed data from more than 63,000 adults in the UK covering 18 yea rs and found that people who favoured a“weekend fighter”plan had pretty much the same reduced risk of early death from all causes as those who spread out exercise.“One weekly exercise is usually sufficient to reduce mortality and morbidity(死亡率和发病率),”O’ Donovan says. Even weekend fighters who did less than the recommended amount for the week fared better than inactive people.___70___“No level of exercise is too much,”says O’Donovan.“There’s no increase in mortality or morbidity if you keep increasing the amount.”Just don’t go too hard each time.Ⅳ. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.The end of books? Perhaps notA major online bookseller recently announced that sales of ebooks are now worth more than sales of traditional paperback and hardback combined. So does this mean the end of the traditional paper novel as we know it?I love the availability of ebooks, the fact that within one device, I can be recommended a book that I’ll most likely enjoy, order it and start reading it, all in a matter of minutes. I no longer have to spend hours walking along endless shelves in a book shop, trying to decide whether I’l l actually enjoy the book I’ve chosen. It’s easier to travel light nowadays, too, as I just carry hundreds of books round with me in one simple device.But does this really mean the book is dead? I don’t think so. After all, the same thing was said about the rise of television, and radio before that. In fact, as far back as 1835, Theophile Gautier, in his novel Mademoiselle de Maupin, declared,“The newspaper is killing the books, as the book killed architecture.”You see, the traditional book is a tough character. There’s something almost romantic about it, whether it’s the smell of its pages, or the way it’s like a trusty friend that fits reassuringly under your arm on the train or bus, which tells the world a little about you by its cover. It can be an old friend that we return to when we’re feeling down, and our bookshelves stand as a kind of history of our lives, with each faded cover holding memories and pleasures unique to each of us.What the online bookseller didn’t mention when reporting their sales f igures is that sales of paperback and hardback books are also rising, and that this particular bookseller, while huge, has only 19% of the overall market for novels. Of course, the ebook is going to have its place in the future, but it will simply become another form of media we comet to enjoy.Ⅴ. TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 电池使用前必须充电。

2023年高考英语真题模拟试题专项汇编:(4)阅读理解-健康环保类(含答案)

(4)阅读理解-健康环保类——2023年高考英语真题模拟试题专项汇编一、【2023年新高考全国II卷】As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans, but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.The research team focused on a large urban park. They surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding(编码) experiences into different categories. For example, one participant’s experience of "We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while" was assigned the categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors. These include encountering wildlife, walking along the edge of water, and following an established trail.Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park. Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break."We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives. And for that to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it," said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study.1.What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?A. Pocket parks are now popular.B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.C. Many cities are overpopulated.D. People enjoy living close to nature.2.Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories?A. To compare different types of park-goers.B. To explain why the park attracts tourists.C. To analyze the main features of the park.D. To find patterns in the visitors’ summaries.3.What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 5?A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.C. The same nature experience takes different forms.D. The nature language enhances work performance.4.What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn?A. Language study.B. Environmental conservation.C. Public education.D. Intercultural communication.二、【2023年全国甲卷】Grizzly bears, which may grow to about 2.5m long and weigh over 400kg, occupy a conflicted corner of the American psyche-we revere(敬畏) them even as they give us frightening dreams. Ask the tourists from around the world that flood into Yellowstone National Park what they most hope to see, and the iranswer is often the same: a grizzly bear."Grizzly bears are re-occupying large areas of their former range," says bear biologist Chris Servheen. As grizzly bears expand their range into places where they haven't been seen in a century or more, they're increasingly being sighted by humans.The western half of the U.S. was full of grizzlies when Europeans came, with a rough number of 50,000 or more living alongside Native Americans. By the early 1970s, after centuries of cruel and continuous hunting by settlers, 600 to 800 grizzlies remained on a mere 2 percent of their former range in the Northern Rockies. In 1975, grizzlies were listed under the Endangered Species Act.Today, there are about 2,000 or more grizzly bears in the U.S. Their recovery has been so successful that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has twice attempted to de-list grizzlies, which would loosen legal protections and allow them to be hunted. Both efforts were overturned due to lawsuits from conservation groups. For now, grizzlies remain listed.Obviously, if precautions(预防) aren't taken, grizzlies can become troublesome, sometimes killing farm animals or walking through yards in search of food. If people remove food and attractants from their yards and campsites, grizzlies will typically pass by without trouble. Putting electric fencing around chicken houses and other farm animal quarters is also highly effective at getting grizzlies away. "Our hope is to have a clean, attractant-free place where bears can pass through without learning bad habits," says James Jonkel, longtime biologist who manages bears in and around Missoula.5.How do Americans look at grizzlies?A. They cause mixed feelings in people.B. They should be kept in national parks.C. They are of high scientific value.D. They are a symbol of American culture.6.What has helped the increase of the grizzly population?A. The European settlers' behavior.B. The expansion of bears' range.C. The protection by law since 1975.D. The support of Native Americans.7.What has stopped the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service from de-listing grizzlies?A. The opposition of conservation groups.B. The successful comeback of grizzlies.C. The voice of the biologists.D. The local farmers' advocates.8.What can be ierere from the last paragraph?A. Food should be provided for grizzlies.B. People can live in harmony with grizzlies.C. A special path should be built for grizzlies.D. Technology can be introduced to protect grizzlies.三、【2023年安徽临泉模拟】It was a sight you don't normally see: a jellyfish lying dead in the middle of a parking lot partly flooded in water. But this was no ordinary parking lot. This particular section downtown Annapolis, Maryland, is among a growing number of areas easily affected by frequent high-tide flooding in the seaside town.High-tide floods, also known as sunny-day floods, occur when tides reach anywhere from 1. 75 to 2 feet above the daily average high tide and start spilling onto streets. These floods are usually not related to storms. The typically occur during high tides. The gravitational pull of the Moon drives the tides. Winds can also influence how high the tides come in. Then there are the climate patterns like El Nino(厄尔尼诺现象), which lead to higher-than-normal sea levels along both the U.S. East and West coasts. And, of course, the most powerful driver is sea level rise itself. Because of rising seas driven by climate change, the frequency of this kind of flood has dramatically increased in recent years. The ocean is rising at about 3. 3 millimeters, or 0.13 inches a year, mostly due to the melting of land-based ice and the heated expansion of ocean water, according to NASA.Defenses are built in response to the high-tide floods. Half a mile up the road from Downtown Annapolis, the U.S. Naval Academy is beating back water: a seawall built alongside the river, flood walls protecting campus buildings, and classroom floors and walls made of concrete or painted cinder block—materials more resistant to flooding than carpet, wood and drywall. Still, David Kriebel, a professor of ocean engineering at the U. S. Naval Academy, said, the water is rising fast, and much of this flood protection will only last for a few decades.At that point, additional measures will have to be taken. "You can build walls, you can add inflow preventers and you can protect areas that are worth protecting, but eventually, water's going to find its way through the holes," he said. "You're not really meant to hold back the tides."9.What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To introduce the main topic.B. To share an unusual finding.C. To warn people to protect animals.D. To make a phenomenon convincing.10.Which of the following contributes most to the increase of high-tide floods?A.Winds.B. Climate change.C.Moon's gravity.D. Certain climate patterns.11.What does David Kriebel feel about the situation in a few decades?A. CuriousB.UncertainC.ConfidentD.Worried12.What's the suitable title for the text?A. The Future World: Worth the WaitB. Climate Crisis: Solutions on the WayC. Rising Waters: Beating Back the TidesD. Downtown Annapolis: Emerged under Water四、【2023年四川绵阳模拟】For some people, October is October. On October 5, Katmai National Park and Preserve in southern Alaska kicked off Fat Bear Week, when fans compare before and after photos of bears to vote for the one they think has gained the most weight before they bed down for the long freezing winter. Bear 747, also known as "Bear Force One", took the first-place spot with 68,105 votes. It weighed around 1,400 pounds.Fat Bear Week started in 2014. At first, it was just Fat Bear Tuesday. Mike Fitz, a former park keeper at Katmai, noticed that live webcams showing the bears generated a lot of online comments, so he let people vote for their favorite fat bear on the Internet. The one-day event attracted 1, 700votes. In 2015, it was extended to a week. Last year, nearly 800,000 people got involved, turning it into a global campaign.The contest serves two main purposes. First, some of America's national parks are in remote and undeveloped areas, which are difficult or costly to reach. Fat Bear Week brings Alaska's wilderness to fans' computer screens. "It's not limited to the fortunate few who can go to the river anymore." Fitz said.Second, Fat Bear Week brings attention to the bears and the ecosystems they live in. The2,200 bears of Katmai are strong for feeding on some of the healthiest salmon(三文鱼) in the world, said Sara Wolman, a former park keeper. Salmon in the Pacific Northwest are suffering from overfishing, dam construction and warming rivers due to climate change. Luckily, Brooks River, which Katmai's bears like to fish in, has been free from these threats so far.Fat Bear Week has spread like viruses. Fans and creators say it's because it shows a conservation success story. For one week, people don't have to focus on climate change or habitat loss. "Maybe things aren't super great all the time in the world," said Felicia Jimenez, who is a current Katmai keeper. "But there are some really fat bears in Alaska."13.Why was Bear 747 the winner?A. It was the heaviest.B. It was the most famous.C. It gained the most pounds.D. It presented the best photos.14.What is the purpose of paragraph 2?A. To praise Mike Fitz for his work.B.To review the history of the event.C. To show the popularity of fat bears.D. To explain the role of live webcams.15.What can we learn about Katmai's bears?A.

Katmai's Bears: A Special Beauty Contest五、【2023年山西三晋模拟】The Dead Sea is an amazing wonder of the world: the lowest exposed spot on Earth, where the water is so full of salt that bathers float right to the top.But today the Dead Sea is drying up, and its banks are collapsing. The water level is dropping close to 4 feet every year. The main part of the lake is now around 950 feet deep—about 15% shallower, and a third of the surface area, compared to its shape half a century ago."You've seen a living disaster in front of your eyes," says Jake Ben Zaken, an Israeli who says he operates the only passenger boats on the Dead Sea.As the lake recedes, it changes the landscape around it in both beautiful and harmful ways. Beautiful salt formations are revealed where the water dries up. But there are also terrible scenes of beaches and parking lots swallowed up by sinkholes along the shore.Solutions have been proposed to replenish(填满) the Dead Sea, but no significant action has been taken to prevent its further destruction. Climate change makes recovery of the lake seem even further out of reach.The Dead Sea is a landlocked lake that's partly in Jordan, Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The lake—named the Dead Sea because it contains too much salt and is not suitable for aquatic(水生的) life—has been drying up for decades."It's a human-made problem," say environmental researchers and officials. In a region where water is rare, Israel, Jordan and Syria in the last several decades have diverted(改道) the freshwater sources that feed the Dead Sea, for drinking water and irrigation. Plus, Israeli and Jordanian companies evaporate(蒸发). Dead Sea water to harvest its rich minerals for export. The part of the lake with Israeli hotels, a popular spot for tourists to float in Dead Sea water, is actually an artificial evaporation pool in the lake's southern basin.17.How deep was the main part of the Dead Sea 50 years ago probably?A.About 800 feet.B.About 1,000 feet.C.About 1,100 feet.D.About 1,300 feet.18.What does the underlined word “recedes” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Goes up.B.Gets popular.C.Flows over.D.Becomes smaller.19.What's the last paragraph mainly about?A.The solutions to the problem.B.The future of the Dead Sea.C.The reasons for the problem.D.The situation of the Dead Sea.20.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.The Dead Sea Is DyingB.The Dead Sea Is RecoveringC.The Dead Sea—a Salty Lake with MineralsD.The Dead Sea—a Place for Tourists to Float六、【2023年江西上饶模拟】Around the world, rivers seem to be raging. While catastrophic flooding of Pakistan's rivers has left tens of millions without homes, a drought unseen for 500 years has squeezed Europe's major waterways almost dry. There is little disagreement about what's going on: climate change is causing both rainfall and droughts to intensify. The question now is how to manage those climate-changed waterways and, specifically, what role dams should play in fighting against the kinds of disasters.Advocates say water storage dams will become more essential to mitigate extreme waterflows by absorbing water during flooding and releasing it in times of drought. Dams, they say, can help combat climate change by producing renewable hydropower(水力发电) that is cleaner than fossil fuel energy.However, criticisms have long centered on the negative impact most dams have on biodiversity and river ecosystems. Not only do the vast amounts of concrete used to build large dams leave huge carbon footprints, there is also much evidence that greenhouse gas emissions from dams are often far greater than previously thought. Increasingly a scientific case is also being made that dams actually worsen both floods and droughts.Now, more dam developers are turning to "run-of-river" technology, in which the river's water flows continuously through a hydropower station without a reservoir(水库) to store it. Such projects are generally considered more environmentally friendly, but they do not allow for water to be managed according to weather conditions.Then there are those who say we should stay away from dams, and look for ways using nature-based solutions. Many ecologists say that protecting wetlands, for example, should be a priority, since those ecosystems act as natural sponges(海绵) for floodwaters within a river basin. "We have turned river basins into economic machines that only serve people and not nature, and this creates more problems, like droughts and flooding," says Herman Wanningen, the founder of the advocacy group Dam Removal Europe. "We have to learn to cooperate with nature and not against it anymore."21.What does the underlined word mitigate refer to in prara 2?A. Ease.B. Motivate.C.Block.D.Store.22.Why do critics oppose the construction of dams?A. It needs a large amount of concrete.B. It destroys local ecosystem.C. It may produce negetive effect.D. It gives off harmful gases.23.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Dams have long lost their storage function.B. The starting point of our solution should serve nature.C. Flooding and droughts can help promote economy.D. Protecting wetland is a once-and-for-all solution.24.What's the best title for the text?A. Dams' Traditional Role: Pros and Cons.B. Disaster Relief: Working with Nature.C. Building More Dams: A Way Out?D. Worsening Climate Change: Take Action!七、【2023年山西高三模拟】Conifers(针叶树)are generally better than broad-leaved trees at purifying air from pollutants. But deciduous(落叶的)trees may be better at taking in particle-bound pollution .A new study led by the University of Gorbenburg shows that the best trees for air purification depend on the type of pollutants involvedTrees and other greenery in cities provide many benefits that are important for the well- being of residents. Leaves and needles on trees filter air pollutants and reduce exposure to poisonous substances in the air. But which trees purify the air most effectively? Researchers from the University of Gothenburg have collected leaves and needles from eleven different trees growing in the same place in the Gothenburg Botanical Garden (GBG) to analyse which substances they have absorbed.“This tree collection provides a unique opportunity to test many different species of trees with similar environmental conditions and exposure to air pollutants," said Jenny Klingberg, a researcher of the GBG.A total of 32 different pollutants were analysed, some of which are bound to particles of various sizes. Others are gaseous. This project has focused on PAHs(多环芳烃).In cities. traffic is the biggest source of these pollutants, which are released due to incomplete burning in engines.“Our analyses show that different species of trees have different abilities to absorb air pollutants. Conifers generally absorb more gaseous PAHs than broad-leaved trees. Another advantage of conifers is that they also act as air purifiers in winter, when air pollution is usually at its highest," said Jenny Klingberg."This study contributes to improving our understanding of the ability of trees to clean the air and which species are best at absorbing air pollutants," said Jenny Klingberg. This knowledge is important for urban planning when designing sustainable cities. While trees and greenery can contribute to better air quality in eities at-the-and of the day, the most-important measure is to reduce emissions.25.Which is the determining factor in choosing the most suitable trees to purify air?A. Air quality.B. Geographical location.C. The height of plants.D. The kind of pollutants.26.Why did the researchers collect leaves and needles from GBG?A. To compare their shapes.B. To create a tree collection.C. To figure out what they absorb.D. To display them on exhibition.27.What may cause more PAHs to be released?A. Fuel vehicles.B. Electric engines.C. Traffic accidents.D. Complete burning.28.What is the most effective way to better air quality in cities?A. Decreasing emissions.B. Planting more conifers.C. Raising public awareness.D. Designing sustainable cities.八、【2023年海南东方模拟】Not only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water. Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunken or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship large amounts of Ooho bubbles(水泡) without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many people’s attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer’s interest while the production machine is getting up and running. It is quicklymaking a rise, so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.29.How is most plastic dealt with in America?A. It’s sold.B. It’s recycled.C. It’s buried.D. It’s wasted.30.Why did the team invent Ooho?A. To make a profit for a company.B. To protect the environtnent.C. To make people eat as they drink.D. To reduce the cost of plastic bottle.31.What can we infer about Ooho from the text?A. It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.B. It has become popular since it began to be sold.C. It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.D. It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.32.What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?A. Ooho is to be a success in the future.B. Ooho is being supported by smart people.C. Ooho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.D. Ooho is being produced to attract more investors.九、【2023年安徽高三模拟】The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short trip from camp. On the plain (平原), we can just see many wild animals. This is why we're here to observe Tibetan antelopes.Tibetan antelopes live on the plains of Tibet,Xinjiang and Qinghai.Watch them move slowly across the green grass. I'm attracted by the lovely animals.I'm also reminded of the danger they are in. They are being killed for their valuable fur.My guide Zhaxi works at the Changtang National Nature Reserve. The reserve is a place for the animals and plants of northwestern Tibet. To Zhaxi, protesting the wildlife is a way of life."We're not tying to save the animals.” he says,"Actually, we're trying to save ourselves."Between the 1980s and 1990s, the population of the Tibetan antelope dropped by over 50 percent. People were shooting antelopes to make profits. Their living places were becoming smaller as new roads and railways were built.In order to save the animals, the Chinese government placed them under national protection. Zhaxi and other volunteers watched over the antelopes day and night to keep them safe from attacks. Bridges and gates were added to let the antelopes move easily and keep them safe from cars and trains.The measures were effective. The antelope population has recovered and in June 2015.theTibetan antelope was removed from the list of animals in danger. The government, however,does not intend to stop the protection programs, since the threats (威胁) to the Tibetan antelope have not yet disappeared.Much is being done to protect wildlife but if we really want to save the planet, we must change our way of life. We can stop being a threat to wildlife and to our planet only when we learn to exist in peace with nature.A.breathe fresh air in TibetB.enjoy the scene in TibetC.learn the history of TibetD.observe Tibetan antelopes34.Where does Zhaxi work?

Some biologists estimate that 35% of animals and plants could become extinct in the wild by 2050 due to global climate change. Before the industrial revolution, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rarely climbed above 280 ppm; but during the 2014 calendar year, carbon dioxide levels ascended to 402 ppm.In the fall of 2014, the National Audubon Society released a report entitled Birds and Climate Change. It is a comprehensive, first-of-its kind study that predicts how climate change could affect the ranges of 588 North American birds. Of the 588 North American bird species, more than half are likely to be in trouble. The National Audubon Society's models indicate that 314 species will lose more than 50 percent of their current climatic range by 2080. Of the 314 species at risk from global warming, 126 of them are classified as climate endangered. Thesebirds are projected to lose more than 50 percent of their current range by 2050. The other 188 species are classified as climate threatened and expected to lose more than 50 percent of their current range by 2080 if global warming continues at its current pace.In January 2020, two widely reported studies were carried out to show the dramatic impact of climate disruption on our wildlife and fisheries along the California coast. The first study showed that from 2014 to 2016, over a million common murres from Alaska through California died as a result of a marine heat wave. The second study shows that acid rainfall caused by carbon emissions is harming shell-building animals in the ocean. The study found that larval Dungeness crabs' shells suffer damage in west coast seawater, putting at risk the most profitable fishery in California and a beloved local seafood.These newly documented impacts provide more evidence that we are running out of time to take action by drastically reducing our use of fossil fuels in order to slow the rate of climate disruption and to give birds and other animals more time to adapt.Visit our How You Can Help Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions page to learn what you can do to help protect these species at risk from climate disruption.38.What does “ascended” underlined in Paragraph 1 mean?A.
