Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2023•广东省深圳市高二上期中)
Ice from the massive Greenland ice sheet will eventually raise global sea level by at least 10 inches (27 meters) on its own, according to a recent study.
Zombie or doomed ice is ice that is still attached to thicker areas of ice, but is no longer getting fed by those larger glaciers. That's because the parent glaciers are getting less replenishing snow, said study co-author William Colgan, a glaciologist at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland.
“It's dead ice. It's just going to melt and disappear from the ice sheet regardless of what climate scenario we take now.” Colgan said in an interview. Jason Box, another glaciologist at the Greenland survey, also said it is “more like one foot in the grave”.
What scientists did for the study was look at the ice in balance. Normally, snowfall in the mountains in Greenland flows down and recharges and thickens the sides of glaciers, balancing out what's melting on the edges. But in the last few decades, there's less replenishment and more melting, creating imbalance. Based on the ratio of what's being added to what's being lost, the study authors calculated that 3.3% of Greenland's total ice volume will melt, contributing to at least ten inches in sea level rise, a global average.
This is the first time scientists calculated a minimum ice loss—and accompanying sea level rise—for Greenland, one of Earth's two massive ice sheets that are slowly shrinking because of climate change from burning coal, oil and natural gas.
As for the timing of the committed melting, Colgan responded that the team doesn't know how long it will take the doomed ice to melt, but making an educated guess, it would probably be by the end of this century or at least by 2150.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过科学研究结果和引用科学家的话说明这些“僵尸冰或死冰”不可避免地融化,告诉我们格陵兰岛的冰层将导致海平面上升至少27厘米这样一个事实。
1.What does the underlined word “replenishing” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Added. B.Left.
C.Exchanged. D.Decreased.
A [词义猜测题。根据文章第二段画线单词所在句可知,提到附着在较厚冰层上的冰无法再补冰,再结合常识可知,通常不断形成的积雪落到冰川上最终会使冰山的冰量增多,然后才有可能给这些附在较厚冰层上的冰补充冰量,即母冰川若得不到足够的补充积雪,将会导致僵尸冰或死冰的出现;故推知本处画线单词“replenishing”的意思是“补充”。故选A项。]
2.What is implied in Jason Box's words ?
A.Scientists step onto the great ice sheet.
B.There is more than one foot in the tomb.
C.The melting of the doomed ice is unavoidable.
D.The zombie ice in Greenland looks like one foot.
C [推理判断题。文章第三段提到不管采用什么样的气候设想,这些冰都会从冰盖上融化和消失,即这是不可避免的事情,故推测Jason Box说“更像是一只脚已踏进坟墓”这句话暗示了这个现象不可挽回,即是不可避免的事情。故选C项。]
3.What's the author's attitude towards the loss of the two ice sheets in Greenland?
A.Indifferent. B.Objective.
C.Critical. D.Optimistic.
B [观点态度题。通读全文可知,文章根据科学研究结果、数据和引用了科学家的话来客观说明格陵兰岛冰川融化这个现象,并没有提出作者自己的一些观点和态度,故推知作者对于格陵兰岛两块冰原的消失的看法是客观的,不带个人感情的。故选B项。]
4.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Zombie ice in Greenland will melt in the near future.
B.Scientists did a research on the massive Greenland ice sheet.
C.The greenhouse effect accounts for the disappearance of the ice sheet.
D.Doomed ice in Greenland will lead to sea level rise by at least 27 centimeters.
D [主旨大意题。文章开头以科学研究为凭据提到了格陵兰岛冰原的冰最终将使全球海平面上升至少10英寸(27米)这样一个结论,文章后面段落对引起这一现象的具体原因和所带来的后果作了具体阐述,故本文就是围绕格陵兰岛的冰层将导致海平面上升至少27厘米这一话题进行阐述的。故选D项。]
Ⅱ.语法填空
(2023•湖南省邵东市高二上月考)
If you have been awed by natural wonders and fascinated by human civilization, you might understand why UNESCO is fighting 1. (preserve) them. I have the belief 2. some of you have heard about UNESCO heritage sites or maybe even visited one ! However, they face lots of dangers and in urgent need of protection.

The more we acknowledge the outstanding universal value of our heritage sites, the more 10. (like) we are to treat them with respect.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了世界遗产遭受威胁的原因,并呼吁人类要保护世界遗产。
1.to preserve 考查动词不定式。fight to do sth是固定搭配,译为“争取做某事”;根据英文提示,故填to preserve。
2.that 考查名词性从句。分析可知本处是同位语从句,从句内容对名词belief 进行解释说明,本处从句成分完整,引导词不充当成分,只起连接作用,应用that;故填that。
3.threatening 考查非谓语。分析可知本处已有谓语动词,空处用非谓语;dangers与threat之间是主动关系,应用动词-ing形式作后置定语;故填threatening。
4.down 考查固定短语。wear down是固定短语,译为“磨损”,符合题意;故填down。
5.civil 考查词性转换。分析可知空处是形容词,修饰后面的名词wars;根据英文提示,故填civil。
6.the 考查冠词。a/the flood of都可指“大量的”,本处特指涌入世界遗迹的大量游客,应用the表示特指;故填the。
7.increases 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子可知空处填不及物动词作谓语,由主语demand可知谓语用单数形式;全文用一般现在时;根据英文提示,故填increases。
8.growth 考查词性转换。分析可知空处缺名词作介词短语due to的宾语;population growth译为“人口增长”,population是名词作定语修饰名词growth;故填growth。
9.themselves 考查代词。分析可知,空处填反身代词用作同位语,加强被修饰词的语气,紧放在被修饰词sites之后;sites是复数形式;故填themselves。
10.likely 考查固定句型。根据比较级的固定句型,“the+比较级,the+比较级”的结构;more likely是比较级,表示“更可能”;故填likely。
Ⅲ.应用文写作

参考范文:
Dear fellow students,
The greenhouse effect has led to not only the rise in temperature but also extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide, even costing human lives.
To avoid the warming trend to continue, urgent steps should be taken to prevent a higher price to pay. First of all, government need to consider taking appropriate measures, including educating everyone about global warming, along with its cause and impacts. Plus, we as individuals can also reduce our “carbon footprint” by restricting the amount of carbon dioxide our lifestyles produce.
Every effort matters. Let's take action now.

Ⅳ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
(2023•河北省沧州市高二上月考)
No matter how small you are, you can also give help or support to others. I didn't understand these words until I saw my grandfather weep that day.
I grew up in Southern California, and my family often went to Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, and Sea World. The highlight of those park visits for me was always the evening activities when there would be fireworks.
As I grew older and more observant, I noticed that my grandfather would go missing just before the fireworks were scheduled to start and reappear shortly after they finished. I asked my mother about this and was told that Grandpa didn't like to hear the noise of the explosions. They reminded him of the war and his fellows who died in the war. So every time there was fireworks, he would go inside the bathrooms until they were done. I felt surprised because my grandfather was such a strong man.
One summer night, somewhere near my tenth birthday, my family and I exited a ride just in time to hear over the loudspeakers, “In only two minutes, the lights will be turned off around the Rivers of America, and Disneyland will present their fireworks in the skies over the park.” At this moment, Grandpa was just in front of me, and when he heard the announcement, he started jogging ahead without a word to anyone. Without really thinking, I took off after him, against the orders of my mother, who repeatedly called after me to stay with the rest of the family. Grandpa, unaware that I was behind him, tried desperately to walk through the masses of people who were stopped in the street waiting for the show to begin.
As he tried to reach the restrooms, the first shell broke in the skies above us. Grandpa paused and looked up, just looking as if he had been hit by a shot. And then he kept moving forward. As shell after shell burst overhead, he struggled forward and almost fell over before he could sit onto a bench nearby.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
Instantly, I went forward and was by his side.
Paragraph2:
When the fireworks show ended, he straightened suddenly and wiped the tears.
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
Instantly, I went forward and was by his side. And when he looked up at me in surprise, I saw fear on a face that had only shown strength and kindness before. I grasped his hand in mine. It was trembling and seemed suddenly much weaker than I remembered. Grandpa sunk into my arms. His breath was labored and quick, and he wept soundlessly. I kept perfectly still and didn't say a word. Absorbed in the show, no one noticed us on that bench as we sat for what seemed like hours... a child supporting a grown man.
Paragraph 2:
When the fireworks show ended, he straightened suddenly and wiped the tears. He calmed himself for just a moment, and then put his arm around me and said, “Thanks, child.” Seconds later, he was on his feet, declaring that we should find the others and leading me into the crowd by the hand. I once again felt his strong hand. Walking through the crowds, I knew that I ought to never mention this to anyone. At the same time, I realized that everyone can offer help and support to others however little he is.
