  • 26、It’s the perfect time of year to curl up with a great new book—so be sure to add these climate must-reads to your list.

    THE UNINHABITABLE EARTH: LIFE AFTER WARMING

    By David Wallace-Wells

    The author speaks out on the challenges facing our planet. But he’s also an optimist, one well-aware that the right action today can avoid disaster tomorrow.

    AN INCONVENIENT SEQUEL: TRUTH TO POWER

    By Al Gore

    A lot of people have heard his message about the climate crisis. But just as important is the message that people around the world can do something about it.

    The book is a comprehensive how -to guide full of concrete, actionable ways you can join the movement for solutions and help turn the tide.

    THE SIXTH EXTINCTION: AN UNNATURAL HISTORY

    By Elizabeth Kolbert

    Teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg called out world leaders for their inaction, saying, “People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing. We are in the beginning of a mass extinction.”

    Elizabeth Kolbert might say, “Exactly." As she details, the Earth has seen five landmark events in the distant past that wiped out most plant and animal life. But today, we’re witnessing a new phenomenon known to scientists as the “sixth extinction." Unlike the previous five, this one is not a natural event. It’s human-made. And it' s happening right now.

    THE OVERSTORY

    By Richard Powers

    While the books listed above are all works of nonfiction, climate is showing up more and more as a major theme in contemporary fiction. A work of imagination wandering across centuries and continents, it tells the story of nine main characters, all existing at different periods of time, which are not men or women at all, but trees.

    【1】Which author offered measures to deal with climate change?

    B.It wipes out all the plant and animal life.

    C.It is mainly caused by the natural factors.

    D.It is the result of the world leaders’ inaction.

    【3】What is special about The Overstory?

  • 27、   As people age, the body changes in all sorts of predictable ways. Brains can slow. Wounds take longer to recover. And sleep patterns (模式) shift, too. This can come as news to many, says Michael V. Vitiello, a psychologist at the University of Washington who is expert in sleep in aging.

    The most noticeable—and often most annoying—changes are how sleep and wake-up times change and sleep gets lighter, often beginning in middle age. Gone are weekend sleep to 11 a.m. and the ability to sleep through a noisy garbage truck down the block. Older drivers take longer to fall asleep, and they wake up more often. They tend to stay in the deepest stages of sleep for less time than younger adults.

    Studies have found that poor sleep can create a particular threat to older adults—Falls, depression and anxiety, problems with memory, and increased suicide (自杀) risk are among the effects of sleep issues in this population group that researchers have found. But scientists are still unsure why those risk connections exist.

    What is clear is the connection between good sleep and psychological well-being in older adults. A 2010 study showed us that connection when it came to sleep quality, but sleep quantity didn't show the same effects.

    Experts say this may be the key to understanding sleep as you age. If you're sleeping less, but don't feel negative effects out of bed, the changes you notice may just be normal age-related. If you experience a sudden change in your sleep, or poor sleep is affecting your daily life, changing your personality, or your bedmate says you stop breathing when you snore, that could be a sign of something more serious and it's worth visiting your doctor.

    1What is one of the changes in sleep patterns with aging?

    A.People tend to wake up later. B.People sleep more at weekends.

    C.People take longer to fall asleep. D.People stay longer in deep sleep.

    2What will probably happen if the elderly have poor sleep?

    A.They may threaten others. B.They may become anxious.

    C.They may have better memory. D.They may be unaware of their risks.

    3What does the 2010 study imply?

    A.Both sleep quality and quantity matter with aging.

    B.Sleep quantity is the key to older people's mental health.

    C.Sleeping well is good for older people's psychological health.

    D.The relationship between quality and quantity is not yet clear.

    4What is the main idea of the passage?

    A.Bedtime pattern changes as people age.

    B.Poor sleep is more dangerous for older adults.

    C.Bedtime pattern changes are not a sign of trouble.

    D.People's body changes in different ways with aging.

  • 28、WHAT are scientists? They are often described as gray-haired white-coated dull scholars.

    But the world has changed. Young scientists are making their voices heard and releasing their powers on the world stage.

    This is also true in China. Rising stars include new materials expert Gong Yongji, university professor Liu Mingzhen, and biologist Wang Ruixue. At the age of 28 in 2018, Wan Ruixue received the 2018 Science & SciLifeLab Prize for Young Scientists. This is a global prize to reward outstanding scientists at an early stage of their careers.

    She focuses mainly on biomedicine(生物医学)and artificial intelligence(人工智能). "Both are cutting-edge(前沿)technologies at an early stage of development," she said.

    "So, I think they have great potential to be developed. I think in the study of cutting-edge technologies, China and other leading countries in the world are standing on the same starting line. And in the study of structural biology, China is likely to become the leader."

    She felt it was her fate to become a biologist. "I grew interested in the natural world, when I was very young," she said. In 2009, she entered Sun Yat-sen University.

    In her third year at the university, she realized that she wanted to do something related to biomedicine. So she emailed China's top biologist Shi Yigong, hoping to join his lab at Tsinghua University.

    Shi recognized her talent and welcomed her. Years of efforts at the lab have paid off. Her research on the high-definition 3D structure of spliceosome led to a scientific breakthrough.

    Unlike-many of other young scientists who choose to pursue further study abroad, Wan currently has no plan to go overseas.

    "The whole ecosystem for scientific research is continually improving in China," she said, adding the country has great science facilities.

    【1】What does the underlined word "releasing" in Paragraph 2 mean?

    A.Giving out.

    B.Getting over.

    C.Finding out.

    D.Taking over.

    【2】What does Wan Ruixue feel about the study of cutting-edge technologies in China?

    A.Anxious.

    B.Confident.

    C.Disappointed.

    D.Satisfied.

    【3】What can we learn about Wang Ruixue's journey of becoming a biologist?

    A.Her teacher led her into the field.

    B.She finds it's easier than she thought.

    C.Her contribution has been recognized.

    D.She thinks it's boring but worth trying.

    【4】Which can be the best title of the text?

    A.China's Breakthrough in Science

    B.Rising Young Scientists in China

    C.Wan Ruixue: A Successful Young Scientist

    D.New Image of Chinese Scientists

  • 29、   Vaping can be just as damaging to your health as smoking. But the minute you kick the habit, you’ll feel a difference.

    Vaping is the use of electronic cigarettes — e-cigarettes. Vaping became mainstream in the United States in the late 2000s. When e-cigarettes first hit the market, people believed they were a safer choice to tobacco cigarettes. We now know, however, that vaping, like smoking cigarettes can be quite damaging to your health and equally addictive.

    Kids and teenagers are especially attracted to vaping, thanks to attractive flavors. Vape use in high school students rose by 900 percent between 2011 and 2015. Quitting vaping can be difficult, just like trying to stop smoking. There are some immediate, though often temporary, negative effects. The positive ones soon outpace the negative, however.

    In as little as 20 minutes, your heart rate returns to normal, your blood pressure drops, and your circulation starts to normalize. Your breathing may improve, too. Daily e-cigarette doubles a persons risk for a heart attack. If you quit, however, the risk begins to fall very quickly. Also, vaping, like cigarette smoking, can blunt your senses, reducing your ability to smell and taste. After just 48 hours without vaping, you may begin to notice your ability to taste and smell food has improved. Nicotine affects more than your brain: new research suggests nicotine can raise your blood sugar, too.

    Smokers often have a troublesome cough or make a breathless sound when they breathe that many refer to as a smokers cough. Smoking even e-cigarettes can badly harm your lung health and make fighting off infections difficult. Quitting, however, will help your lungs recover. After one month, your lung capacity improves. There will come a day when the bad habit of vaping won’t have any lasting influence on your body and your health.

    1What did Americans think of e-cigarettes?

    A.They were cheaper. B.They were less harmful.

    C.They were more fashionable. D.They were environment-friendly.

    2What makes vaping popular among kids and teenagers?

    A.Its colour. B.Its price. C.Its shape. D.Its taste.

    3What does the underlined word “blunt” in paragraph 4 mean?

    A.dull. B.sharp. C.improve. D.benefit.

    4What does the author intend to do by writing the text?

    A.Introduce the wide use of e-cigarettes. B.Point out how e-cigarettes harm the old.

    C.Encourage people to refuse e-cigarettes. D.Compare e-cigarettes with traditional ones.

    AI artwork sells for $432,500 — nearly 45 times its high1 — as Christie’s becomes the first auction house to offer a work of art created by an algorithm. This portrait, however, is not the product of a human mind. It was created by an2 intelligence, an algorithm defined by that algebraic formula with its many parentheses. And when it went under the3 in the Prints & Multiples sale at Christie’s on 23-25 October, Portrait of Edmond Belamy sold for an4 $432,500, signaling the arrival of AI art on the world auction stage.

    From a distance, Portrait of Edmond de Belamy looks almost plausible. Up close, however, the paintwork becomes a grid of mechanical-looking dots, the man’s face a golden blur with black holes for eyes. Look into those eyes. They show no sign of feeling or life. Did a computer make this?

    The answer is yes. The first artwork5 by AI to be sold at Christie’s, its6 price would seem to suggest that in future we will get computers to make art for us. Robot van Gogh will harmlessly cut its ear off and robot Picasso will be a genius.

    Is this the future AI art visionaries such as the French collective Obvious, which programmed this “painter” by getting it to compare its own work with 15,000 pre-20th century portraits, have in mind? Or are they just, God forbid, making a fast buck from deceivable art collectors? Because believing the algorithm that knocked this up to be in any meaningful way an “artist” is like thinking your voice-interaction programme is out to get you. Dream on. Computers would need to replicate human consciousness before they could replicate the funny thing humans do called “art”.

    Art is a way in which human 7 expresses itself, and is equally true of the earliest cave art, Rembrandt’s portraits and Duchamp’s urinal. And that is what is missing from Portrait of Edmond Bellamy. Art is a way humans communicate ideas, perceptions and feelings to each other. It has no 8 outside the human passion to communicate. So in what meaningful sense can an AI replica of certain9 traits of old master paintings be called art?

    For a robot to really make art, it would need an autonomous mind that was emotional as well as10. No AI developer has yet claimed to be anywhere near achieving that and if they ever do, their creation will probably have better things to do than paint portraits — like destroy humanity.

    Maybe afterwards robots will invent their own kind of art, but it won’t be some poor pastiche of human genius.

    It will be beyond anything we organics could imagine.

    Tablets are really useful devices, but their big screens always make them a burden to carry around without a bag. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a phone with the powers of a tablet that could be folded up and fit 1 into the hand?

    Now something like a tablet-shaped but fold-able phone is about to become 2. In February, South Korean electronics company Samsung and China’s Huawei both unveiled fold-able phones Galaxy Fold and Huawei Mate X 3. Mobile phone use has entered the “fold-able future”, The Verge noted.

    The technology could change our lives in significant ways. These devices, due to their 4 screens, give us the larger screens we want. Meanwhile, they still fit easily into the pocket. As USA Today noted, they’re “the 5 of a small tablets and smart-phone, all in a single device”.

    The technology could 6 other devices too. For example, we could make TVs that stick to walls like posters, or fold up easily to hide away in drawers. In crowded modem cities, they will help us to 7 available space.

    In a keynote address, Samsung’s senior vice president of mobile product marketing, Justin Denison, called the fold-able screen “the 8 for the smart-phone of tomorrow.” “It’s a balank canvas for us to do something beautiful together,” he said.

    So is there nothing to stand in the way of the fold-able future?

    According to tech news website Android authority, the necessary displays were difficult to produce. In 2012, nine out of every to OLED screens produced were 9. Today, that 10 percent rate has been improved to between 50 and 90 percent. However, at present these fold-able devices are expensive. For example, the price of Huawei Mate X is 17,500 RMB. That’s a price that may 10 the majority of people.

    But if the fold-able device isn’t going to change the world overnight, there is no doubt that it is coming.

    Patrick Moor-head, an industry analyst told The Verge, “Few are debating if fold-able or roll-able mobile displays are the future of smart-phones; the only question is when and by whom.”

    Why Cold weather Causes So many Flight Cancellation?

    Each year, about 60,000 flights get canceled because of bad winter weather, which costs airlines and airports an estimated $3 billion. But it’s not the freezing cold temperatures that cause problems for planes. After all, 1 jets fly 10 kilometers up, where temperatures hover around -50 degrees Celsius.

    In fact, planes 2 in cold weather, since cold air is denser and leads to better thrust. Clearly, the real problem isn’t what’s going on up there. It’s what’s happening on the ground.

    When a 3 polar vortex (极地涡旋) struck the Midwestern US in January 2019, temperatures dropped to -40 degrees Celsius and airline canceled 3,000 flights nationwide. In these situations, when temperatures start 4, everything slows down. Cargo doors can freeze up, along with the nozzles that pump fuel into planes, which delays the 5 process.

    Even the plane itself can freeze over. Just a quarter-inch - thick layer of ice on a plane can disrupt the way air flows over its wings.

    Les Westbrooks: The number one reason, I would say, that the reason flights get delayed in cold weather is going to be because there’s some kind of frozen precipitation, from frost to snow to a sheet of ice, adhering to the aircraft, adhering to the wings of the aircraft 6.

    That’s Les Westbrooks, a retired airline pilot and an associate professor of aeronautical science at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He says that 7, these planes are “de-iced” - but this also delays takeoff. The crew can spray the plane with a special hot water/ glycol mixture. It can take around 40 minutes to de-ice large passenger airplanes, so planes often have to wait “their turn” for the de-icing station, which, of course, can trigger more delays.

    And ice on the runway, of course, creates another set of 8. In 2014, a plane at JFK skidded off an icy runway and into a mound of snow, leading to an hours-long shutdown at the airport. And even though crews can remove ice from the runway, scraping it off the pavement can lead to potholes (坑洞) and other 9, which makes takeoffs and landings more dangerous. And of course, snow and freezing rain on the ground can affect visibility to the point where officials have to decide it’s not safe to fly at all.

    But if ice and snow aren’t the problem in these extremely cold temperatures, it’s usually another factor: people.

    Les Westbrooks: The airplane flies at high altitudes, -60 degrees. It’s made to do that. Humans are not made to be outside in -60 degrees weather. And so the human factor becomes a big, big factor, when it becomes extremely cold.

    Baggage handlers, aircraft fuelers, and mechanics all have to stay warm. Some airports, like O’Hare in Chicago, set up heated shelters for their employees. Of course, with everyone taking breaks to warm up, not as much gets done, which leads to even more delays and cancellations. Passengers start missing their 10 flights, and that, along with passengers who can’t make it to the airport due to bad road conditions, leads to half-empty planes.

    In fact, many airlines might preemptively cancel flights before bad weather even hits. So, in the end, you can still blame cold weather for cancelling your flight.

  • 37、I have a muscle disease but I don't look any different from other people. Sometimes, I was too weak1 go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an2(absent), I felt stupid because I was behind the others.

    My life is a lot easier at high school because few fellow students make me3(annoy). My ambition is to work for a firm4develops computer software when I grow up. Last year I invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy it from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around5(feel) sorry for myself. As well as going to the movies and football matches with my friends. I spend a lot of time looking after my pets6(proper) but I find it worthwhile.

    In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more7 (independence). I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If8(have) a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life is not satisfying. So don't feel sorry for the disabled or make fun9them, and don't ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live10rich and full a life as you do.

  • 41、阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

    There is nothing unusual about a single language dying. Communities have come and gone throughout history, and with them their language. But what is happening today is extraordinary, judged by the early standards. According to the best estimates(估计), about half of the total 6,000 languages are going to die out in the next century. On average, there is a language dying out somewhere in the world every two weeks or so.

    It is too late to do anything to help many languages, where the speakers are too few or too old, and where the community is too busy just trying to survive to care about their language. But many languages are not in such a serious position. Often, where languages are seriously endangered, there are things that can be done to give new life to them.

    There are some famous cases showing what can be done — Welsh alone among the Celtic languages, is not only stopping its steady decline towards extinction(灭绝) but showing signs of real growth. Two Language Acts protect the status of Welsh, and its presence is increasingly in evidence wherever you travel in Wales. Maori in New Zealand has been maintained by a system of so-called "language nest", which provides children under five with a setting in which they are frequently exposed to the language. The hope is that the children will in turn become role models to a new generation of young children as they grow older. If good descriptions and materials are available, even extinct languages can be saved. Kaurna from South Australia, is an example. This language had been extinct for about a century, but had been quite well documented. So, when a strong movement grew for its revival(复活), it was possible to bring it back from death.

    It is too soon to predict the future of these revived languages, but in some parts of the world they are attracting the very range of positive attitudes and grass roots support. In such unexpected but heart-warming ways we might see the grand total of languages slightly increased.
