21、Extracting CO2 from the air is one of the best ways to address climate change without preventing billions of people from getting the energy they need. But the trick is what to do with it afterwards.

Common approaches include injecting it deep underground to get rid of it. But if you could use it to make useful stuff, then it would do double duty and make the products zero-carbon since they wouldn’t put extra carbon into the atmosphere. For years, focus has been on making zero-carbon petrol or jet fuel from the extracted carbon using non-fossil fuels to generate the energy needed.

Today, XPRIZE revealed the two winners in this year’s 20-million-dollar prize for a contest developed to create breakthrough carbon technologies that turn emissions into products with a high net value. The winners were CarbonCure of Canada and CarbonBuilt of California. Interestingly, they both demonstrated technologies focused on decarbonizing the concrete industry.

CarbonBuilt developed a technology that reduces the carbon footprint of concrete by more than 50% while reducing raw material costs. During the curing process, CO2 is directly injected into the concrete mixture where it is chemically transformed and permanently stored.

CarbonCure’s technology enables the production of concrete with a reduced water and carbon footprint while increasing the material’s reliability. The CO2 is transformed into a permanently embedded mineral which can then be combined with new concrete mixes. The technology is able to reduce the material costs and increase profitability for producers.

Concrete is a major contributor to global warming as producing it releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. Yet it’s the most widely used artificial material, second only to water. Renewable energy sources use much concrete per unit energy produced. If they are to increase enough to make a difference in time to help the planet, getting control of the CO2 in concrete production is essential.

【1】What does the underlined part “double duty” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A．Extracting CO2 and making useful products.

B．Cutting CO2 emission and saving energy.

C．Removing CO2 and creating value.

D．Storing carbon and reducing waste.

【2】Which is NOT a shared benefit of the two winners’ technologies?

A．They permanently store the CO2.

B．They make concrete more reliable.

C．They reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.

D．They lower the cost of concrete.

【3】What is stressed in the last paragraph?

A．To find an alternative to concrete.

B．To invest in clean energy sources.

C．To cut the use of concrete.

D．To handle the carbon footprint of concrete.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．The trick of removing CO2 from the air.

B．Innovative ways of decarbonization.

C．A revolution in the concrete industry.

D．The possibility of turning CO2 into treasure.

22、   I want to talk about a soldier. I saw him yesterday as my husband and I were enjoying a wonderful lunch in the cave-like dining room of an old hotel.

It is hard to imagine being comfortable in a room that probably seats a thousand, but the real magic of the place is its wonderful setting. Every comer is a wood and stone masterpiece, with high glass windows that look out to the huge cliffs of the valley.

A man entered with his family and took a seat. He wasn't in uniform, but he walked with the dignity of a soldier, and a slight limp (瘸). My suspicion was confirmed when he removed his hat and placed it on the table where I could see it. Embroidered (绣) on the cap were the words: "Iwo Jima Survivor".

As they were waiting for lunch, the others talking happily, this gentleman was stating out of the window. He was content to be left out of the conversation and allowed to take in the wonderful and impressive view of the waterfall.

I watched him, and imagined how much horror he had seen in the war. What losses did he suffer, and how many friends did he lose? What he had witnessed should have given him a good reason to lose faith in the world. Yet this tired soldier was smiling at the sky, at the sun and the roaring of the waterfall. Somehow, after everything, the world was still beautiful to him.

I walked over to him and said, "Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry to interrupt, but I saw your hat, and I just wanted to say thank you for serving."

He looked up at me, surprised, and said proudly, "You're welcome, and thank you, too."

I told him I would go home and tell my children about this experience that I'd met him.

B.The gentleman stood out because of his uniform.

C.The gentleman’s family didn’t like to talk with him.

D.The gentleman wasn’t expecting the author to thank him.

【3】What encouraged the author to talk to the soldier?

A.His disability.

B.His loneliness.

C.His contribution to his country.

D.His bravery to fight in the war.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the soldier?

A.Admiring. B.Satisfied.

23、If you’ve ever learned a new language, you know how difficult it can be. Learning a new language, especially after early childhood, can be a huge task, burdened by long vocabulary lists to memorize, and troublesome tenses to master. However, it’s worth the effort. In today’s interconnected world, learning a new language can change your life. It will certainly change your brain.

John Grundy, a neuroscientist in bilingualism and the brain at Iowa State University, explains when you learn a new language, your brain gets rearranged, new connections are made and new pathways are formed. Grundy offers a useful analogy (类比): Imagine that you always take the same route to work. Then one day, the road is washed out. Now what? If you’d varied your route over the years, you’d have options already in mind. You could hop on another road. “It’s really just a remodeling of the brain that allows it to become more efficient,” Grundy says.

A 2012 study found that this remodeling can be significant. After three months of intense language study, recruits at the Swedish Armed Forces Interpreter Academy had increases in cortical (脑皮层的) thickness in areas associated with language processing.

And the remodeling doesn’t help with only language functions. Ashley Chung-Fat-Yim, who researches bilingualism at Northwestern University, says knowing a second language can help prevent cognitive decline. “There is a consistent finding that bilinguals are able to stave off symptoms of dementia (失智症) for about four to six years compared to monolinguals,” says Grundy.

If you’re thinking it’s too late, you’re probably wrong. When it comes to adding on a new one, adults aren’t at as much of a disadvantage as you might think. Chung-Fat-Yim says it’s not so much the age at which you learn a new language as the way you learn it. If you practice a lot and immerse yourself in the language, you can see the benefits at any age, especially when you get older.

【1】What can we know about learning a new language from the text?

A．It is risky.

B．It is effortless.

C．It is rewarding.

D．It is enjoyable.

【2】What happens to your brain when you learn a new language?

A．It becomes messy.

B．It becomes stable.

C．It gets more efficient.

D．It gets less creative.

【3】What do the underlined words “stave off” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A．Extend.

B．Delay.

C．Show.

D．Worsen.

【4】What message does Chung-Fat-Yim try to convey in the last paragraph?

A．It’s never too late to learn.

B．He who laughs last laughs best.

C．The early bird catches the worm.

D．Slow and steady wins the race.

24、The Importance of a Morning Routine

As a child I was a well-known night owl(猫头鹰). 【1】 And I would also be in a bad mood throughout the day. It took me around three decades to appreciate the quiet hours of the morning to set the tone for the rest of the day. I have been experiencing a regimen(养生法), called dinacharya, which is a healing daily routine that balances the body and the mind. 【2】 It’s a good idea to wake up a little earlier to fit dinacharya into your schedule. Once you have established a routine, you will wake up naturally without struggling.

Hydrate(补水)when you wake up. Staying hydrated has many benefits right from boosting your mood to improved cognitive performance. 【3】 Lemon helps to kickstart digestion in the morning.

Give your mouth a good brush. Brush your teeth with an eco-friendly toothbrush, one of the heroes of your zero-waste bathroom. And instead of using single-use toothpaste, a great switch is toothpaste tablets. 【4】

I find the morning hours perfect for meditation(沉思)and give my body a good stretch before getting ready for the day. Meditating for a quarter-hour in the morning helps me gather my thoughts. Create a peaceful place by picking a sustainable meditation cushion(垫子)and warm up with some slow stretches on an eco-friendly yoga mat so that you’re charged for the day.

【5】 It is a wonderful way to slowly set the wheels in motion for a busy day.

A．My dinacharya is an effortless part of my life now.

B．Studying or reading late till night made me wake up sleepy.

C．A few years ago, I tried to experiment with a morning routine.

D．It can lift my energy levels and bring me a feeling of well-being.

E．Make the most of your day by kicking it off with one productive hour.

F．The first thing I do in the morning is have a glass of warm lemon water.

G．In this way, you can remove single-use plastic from your dental routine.
