Cooling systems use gases called refrigerants. Such gases can affect the atmosphere if they escape. Some of these pollutants have been found to be more harmful than other kinds of greenhouse gases. The Nigerian government has approved restrictions on the release of refrigerant gases into the environment. But enforcement efforts for the laws have been difficult. Abiodun Ajeigbe leads an air conditioning business for Samsung, West Africa. He told The Associated Press (AP), “Those laws, those rules, nobody enforces them.” Ajeigbe said one of the biggest problems is a lack of effective education and training about the possible harms of refrigerants. This means many cooling system installers might not follow legal requirements when removing old systems or putting new ones in. Some trained workers do follow environmental rules governing the use of cooling refrigerants. But these kinds of installations cost more. Industry experts and public records suggest the most common air conditioning systems in Africa use a kind of gas known by the trade name R-22. This refrigerant is said to be less harmful to the environment than older cooling chemicals known as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). CFC's have largely been removed from most modern cooling systems. That change was put in motion by the 1987 Montreal Protocol environmental treaty. A document from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says R-22 is considered many times more damaging to the world's climate than carbon dioxide. For example, about one-half kilogram of R-22 is said to equal one ton of carbon dioxide, the most common greenhouse gas. However, while carbon dioxide can stay in the atmosphere for more than 200 years, R-22 stays for about 12 years. R-22 cooling equipment is not as energy efficient as some other systems. And most of the electricity used to power R-22 coolers in Africa requires carbon-based fuels. Nigeria is planning to ban R-22 refrigerants by January 1, 2030. But without enough enforcement, that target is not likely to be met, Samsung's Ajeigbe told the AP. Some cooling systems use a group of refrigerants called hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). These do not harm the ozone layer and are more energy efficient. But HFCs are said to be strong greenhouse gases and account for an estimated 2 percent of all human-caused warming in the atmosphere. One of the most harmful HFCs, called R-410A, is used in the second most common kind of air conditioners in Africa, the AP reported. Sellers and installers of cooling equipment in Nigeria told the news agency that although HFC systems are less damaging to the environment, they are more costly to operate. The same issues are affecting countries beyond Nigeria. In Ghana, the cooling industry also struggles to get companies and workers to obey current environmental rules. Environmental officials in Ghana told the AP that “poor servicing practices” for cooling systems are common across the country. This is largely the result of the public choosing lower-trained installers who might not follow recommended standards. In Kenya, demand for cooling systems is also growing as the population grows and electricity becomes more widely available. Cooling systems using R-22 are still common across the country. But the nation's Environmental Management Authority told the AP there have not been any new imports of the systems since 2021. Workers dealing with cooling systems and refrigerants are required to get a license. But several installation workers told the AP that since such requirements are hard to enforce, environmentally unsafe methods are carried out. 【译文欣赏】 非洲对冷却系统需求的增加加剧了环境问题 尼日利亚和其他非洲国家对冷却系统的需求不断增加，可能会使现有的污染问题更加严重。 冷却系统使用称为制冷剂的气体。这些气体如果逃逸，会影响大气。其中一些污染物被发现比其他类型的温室气体更有害。 尼日利亚政府已批准限制向环境中排放制冷剂气体。但执法工作一直很困难。 Abiodun Ajeigbe领导着三星在西非的空调业务。他告诉美联社，“那些法律、那些规则，没有人执行。” Ajeigbe说，最大的问题之一是缺乏关于制冷剂可能危害的有效教育和培训。这意味着许多冷却系统安装人员在拆卸旧系统或安装新系统时可能不遵守法律要求。 一些经过培训的工人确实遵守了使用冷却制冷剂的环境规则。但这类装置的成本更高。 行业专家和公共记录表明，非洲最常见的空调系统使用一种商品名为R-22的气体。据说这种制冷剂对环境的危害比被称为氯氟烃（CFCs）的旧冷却化学品小。大多数现代冷却系统已基本去除了CFC。1987年《蒙特利尔议定书》环境条约启动了这一变化。 美国环境保护局（EPA）的一份文件称，R-22对世界气候的破坏性被认为是二氧化碳的数倍。例如，据说大约半公斤的R-22相当于一吨二氧化碳，这是最常见的温室气体。 然而，虽然二氧化碳可以在大气中停留200多年，但R-22可以停留约12年。R-22冷却设备不如其他一些系统节能。非洲R-22冷却器的大部分电力都需要碳基燃料。 尼日利亚计划在2030年1月1日前禁止使用R-22制冷剂。但三星的Ajeigbe告诉美联社，如果没有足够的执法，这一目标不太可能实现。 一些冷却系统使用一组称为氢氟碳化合物（HFCs）的制冷剂。这些不会损害臭氧层，而且更节能。但据说氢氟碳化合物是强烈的温室气体，估计占人类造成的大气变暖的2%。 据美联社报道，一种名为R-410A的最有害的氢氟碳化合物被用于非洲第二常见的空调。尼日利亚冷却设备的销售商和安装商告诉该通讯社，尽管氢氟碳化合物系统对环境的破坏较小，但运营成本更高。 同样的问题也在影响尼日利亚以外的国家。在加纳，制冷行业也在努力让公司和工人遵守现行的环境法规。 加纳的环境官员告诉美联社，冷却系统的“不良维修做法”在全国范围内很常见。这在很大程度上是由于公众选择了训练有素的安装人员，他们可能不遵守推荐的标准。 在肯尼亚，随着人口的增长和电力的普及，对冷却系统的需求也在增长。使用R-22的冷却系统在全国范围内仍然很常见。但该国环境管理局告诉美联社，自2021年以来，没有任何新的系统进口。 处理冷却系统和制冷剂的工人需要获得许可证。但几名安装工人告诉美联社，由于这些要求难以执行，因此采用了对环境不安全的方法。 【词汇积累】 ( 6 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 greenhouse gases - n. gases in the Earth's atmosphere that can trap heat温室气体 install – v. put a piece of equipment somewhere and make it ready to use 安装 efficient – adj. working well and not wasting time or energy 高效的 ozone layer – n. the layer of ozone high above the Earth's surface that prevents much of the ultraviolet radiation from the sun from reaching Earth's surface臭氧层 standard –n. an accepted way of doing something that is agreed upon by industry or government officials标准 license –n. official permission to do an activity, such as driving a car, that usually involves a document驾照；许可 【知识拓展】 国际能源署表示，其分析表明，各国政府应对当前和未来电力消耗的政策，以满足降温需求，只会对减缓需求产生“非常有限的影响”。它的基本情况是，到2050年，能源需求将增加三倍，达到6200千瓦时。由于需要额外的发电和配电设备，达到峰值电力需求是一个重大挑战。 【词汇延伸】 1. refrigerant （制冷剂） 2. chlorofluorocarbon （含氯氟烃） 3. hydrofluorocarbon （氢氟烃） 4. Montreal Protocol （《蒙特利尔议定书》） 综合实战演练 （一） （2024·全国·高考真题）When I decided to buy a house in Europe ten years ago, I didn't think too long. I liked traveling in France, but when it came to picking my favorite spot to 1 , Italy was the clear winner. During my first visit to Italy, I 2 to ask for directions or order in a restaurant. But every time I tried to 3 a sentence of  Italian together, the locals smiled at me and 4 my language skills. That encouragement helped me to get through the language 5 . After I made Italy my permanent home, I discovered how 6 Italians are. Neighbors will bring me freshly made cheese and will come to my door to 7 me to close the window in my car when rain is coming. It's these small 8 of kindness that make a new country feel like home. As a foodie, the way to my heart is through my stomach, and nowhere fuels my 9 quite like Italy. Each town has its own traditional 10 , and every family keeps a recipe passed from one generation to another. Families 11 for big meals on Sundays, birthdays, and whatever other excuses they can 12 . These meals are always 13 by laughter and joy. Whatever 14 life in Italy might have, the problems are 15 once you sit down to a big meal with friends and family. 1．A．study B．rent C．visit D．settle 2．A．planned B．struggled C．refused D．happened 3．A．string B．hang C．mix D．match 4．A．improved B．assessed C．admired D．praised 5．A．course B．barrier C．area D．test 6．A．open-minded B．strong-willed C．warm-hearted D．well-informed 7．A．remind B．allow C．persuade D．order 8．A．tricks B．promises C．acts D．duties 9．A．ambition B．success C．appetite D．growth 10．A．costume B．dish C．symbol D．tale 11．A．gather B．cheer C．leave D．wait 12．A．put up with B．stand up for C．come up with D．make up for 13．A．signaled B．confirmed C．represented D．accompanied 14．A．disadvantages B．meanings C．surprises D．opportunities 15．A．created B．forgotten C．understood D．identified ( 1 . 通过主旨大意解题 在题中，理解主旨大意十分重要，正确把握主旨大意有助于考生对文章细节的正确理解，特别是长难句的分析和突破可以帮助考生提高解题的正确率。完形填空题的第一句往往不设空，这句话一般是文章的主题句，考生在解题时一定不要忽略首句的内容。 2 . 通过文化背景解题 完形填空的语篇信息常渗透着各类相关的文化背景知识。有些选项的设置与文化背景相关，这就要求考生有较宽的知识面，同时要具备一定的文化意识，特别是要有对国家文化的敏感性和鉴别力，只有这样才能既快速又准确地解题。 3 . 利用语法分析解题 完形填空虽然以语境填空为主，但也有部分考查语法项目的题目。对于这类题，考生可以利用平时所学的词汇知识，分析单词(组)的使用范围、动词的及物和不及物，并利用句子结构、句式特点等知识全面衡量所有选项排除干扰。 4 . 利用固定搭配解题 完形填空题中对词汇知识的考查，主要体现在习惯用法和同义词、近义词的辨析两方面。习惯用法是英语中某种固定的结构形态，即所谓的“习语”，不能随意改动。所以，考生平时应掌握好习惯用法。对词义辨析题的考查有加大力度的趋势。要做好这类题，需要有较大的词汇量和词语搭配能力、词语辨析能力，特别是在特定的语境中能灵活运用的能力。 5 . 通过复现词解题 这类题多为同义词、近义词和反义词的复现或同义词、近义词和反义词的异形的复现。这类试题主要是考查考生的整体篇章意识和对上下文的推断能力。 6 . 通过瞻前信息解题 该解法要求重点联系空前的信息。这种情况多出现在文章展开之后，这时前文已经含有丰富的语境信息，它们可能和后面的设空处有逻辑的或语境的联系，这样空前的信息就成为解题的根据。解题时一定要善于捕捉这些重要的信息。 ) ( Whatever disadvantages life in Italy might have, the problems are forgotten once you sit dowrto a big meal with friends and family. 该句为主从复合句，主句主干“the problems are forgotten”为主谓结构“Whatever disadvantages life in Italy might have”为whatever 引导的让步状语从句，作定语修饰 disadvantages;“once you sit down to a big meal withfriends and family”为once 引导的条件状语从句。 翻译： ) ( 1. spot n. v 2 . permanent ad j 3. freshly adv 3.foodie n. 5.fuel v. 6.s ettle v. 7 .appetite n. 8. when it comes to doing sth 9 .struggle to do sth. 10 .string sth together 11.get through the language barrier 12. put up with 13.stand up for 14. come up with 15 . make up for 16 .be accompanied by ) 全文翻译 十年前，当我决定在欧洲买房时，我没想太久。我喜欢在法国旅行，但当谈到选择我最喜欢的定居地点时，意大利显然是我的首选。 在我第一次访问意大利时，我计划问路或在餐馆点餐。但每次我试着把一句意大利语串在一起时，当地人都会对我微笑，称赞我的语言技能。这种鼓励帮助我克服了语言障碍。当我把意大利作为永久的家后，我发现意大利人是多么的热心。邻居们会给我带来新鲜的奶酪，并会来到我的门口，提醒我在下雨时关上车里的窗户。正是这些小小的善举让我对一个新的国家有了家的感觉。 作为一个美食家，通往我内心的路是通过我的胃，没有什么地方能像意大利那样刺激我的食欲。每个城镇都有自己的传统菜肴，每个家庭都保存着代代相传的食谱。一家人在星期天、生日以及他们能想出的任何其他借口聚在一起吃大餐。这些饭菜总是伴随着欢声笑语。无论在意大利的生活有什么不利之处，一旦你和朋友和家人坐下来吃大餐，这些问题就会被忘记。 （二） （23-24高二下·山东日照·期末）Nathan Montanez, a New Jersey dad, recently drove his family over 1,000 miles after their flight to Disney World in Florida was canceled.

But a year after becoming the oldest person to visit all 63 National Parks in the US, Grandma Joy is setting out on a new global challenge with her grandson Brad Ryan, 42. This pair, who became famous in 2023 for exploring their national parks, are now planning to travel to all seven continents in the world together. “I don’t have many years left, so hurry up and go,” Grandma Joy, now 94, says. “If I slow down, I don't get anything done.” While Brad assumed that traveling with an elderly person might spoil the fun a little bit, he quickly found that this wasn’t the case. In fact, it was quite the opposite. “It made the experience of being in the great outdoors much richer,” he says, explaining that having to move more slowly meant he was able to take everything in in a more meaningful way. “I wasn’t rushing through the places that I was visiting. I was really taking the time to appreciate smaller details.” In the nearly 10 years since their first trip, Brad has noticed a big change in Grandma Joy’s physical health, explaining that she was quite shaky in the beginning but has become a lot more capable. Being able to share so many special moments with Grandma Joy has also meant that Brad has been able to ask questions that he’s never had the opportunity to ask before. While they clearly get on well with each other. the pair’s significant age gap has unavoidably led to occasional conflicts, especially when it comes to their different tastes in music. Life is very short. As for Grandma Joy, she’s enjoying making up for lost time, and now has several stamps in her first passport. “As for me, the glass is half full, not half empty. And the people that I meet along the way lift my spirits. Besides, not everybody is lucky enough to have a grandson that’s willing to drag them around,” she says. 46．What is the new ambition of Grandma Joy and Brad? A．To get passports. B．To tour the world. C．To become famous musicians. D．To visit all national parks in the US. 47．What does the underlined word “spoil” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Bring. B．Record. C．Ruin. D．Spread. 48．How has traveling together affected Grandma Joy and Brad? A．They have built a closer relationship. B．They have collected several glasses. C．They have learned to avoid all conflicts. D．They have developed the same taste for music. 49．Which word can best describe Grandma Joy? A．Humourous. B．Generous. C．Honest. D．Optimistic. （五） （23-24高二下·陕西宝鸡·期末）One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 50．What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A．Asked others about it. B．Learned something about it. C．Spent three hours researching it. D．Rented a boat. 51．What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Forbidden. B．Allowed. C．Charged. D．Limited. 52．What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A．It sits on the top of a hill. B．It is the largest stage all over China. C．It was for royalty to watch performances. D．Operas are performed there at times. 53．Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A．She took a boat by herself. B．She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C．She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D．She only toured part of the Summer Palace. （六） （23-24高二下·安徽阜阳·期末）Bright and early on the morning of our first full day in Antarctica, L’ Austral’s Captain Fabien’s voice woke us up as it came through a loudspeaker. If we looked outside right now, he said, we’d see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight. My sister and I jumped out of bed, staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice. In the distance, we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes. Next door, my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica. Over breakfast, my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning. You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica, but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that. The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world. Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day. After leaving Buenos Aires, we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane. Then, it was the journey toward the Drake Passage. After a speedy Drake Passage crossing, we reached Antarctica early, adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent. To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney, the fact that you can experience Antarctica — the most distant, extreme continent — with Disney might be surprising. During the trip, there were thoughtful acts, from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne (香槟) party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us. Antarctica is a life-changing destination packed with experiences that can’t be copied. We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage, hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals, and had a taste of champagne. And honestly, it’s going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete. 54．How did the author and her sister feel when sailing past the icebergs? A．Terrific. B．Confused. C．Frightened. D．Dangerous. 55．What happened first on the author’s journey? A．They flew to Ushuaia. B．They toured around Buenos Aires. C．They passed through the Drake Passage. D．They hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals. 56．What can we infer about their travel from the last paragraph? A．The author might feel bad when crossing the Drake Passage. B．The author was the most impressed by the champagne party. C．The author believes that their next travel will be more thrilling. D．The author thought an Antarctica post office should be established. 57．Which can serve as the best title for the text? A．Exploring Antarctica — A Place with Various animals B．An Antarctic Adventure for Scientific Research C．A Comfortable Travel Experience D．A Family’s Journey to Antarctica （七） （23-24高二下·辽宁本溪·期末）Traveling is becoming more and more popular every year. It can be passion to so many people. One of the reasons behind this is the advanced transportation system that humans have achieved up to now. 58 There are even personalities who have traveled the entire world. Everyone has their own reason for traveling. Some people travel for a break in life. At times, our daily life gets very dull. 59 We get bored of doing the same things in the same way again and again every day. We need a breathing space, longing for new adventures in life. Traveling opens new doors of amusement in life. Traveling helps in improving social and communication skills. 60 Traveling involves getting connected with random strangers. It can be a true exercise to the people dealing with social anxiety. We even end up learning new languages for traveling. 61 Traveling forces us to take a break from our normal life and explore. It makes us appreciate beauties in the world. It fills us with positive energy. People suffering from spiritual illness from stress often choose the path of exploring and traveling to cure themselves. It creates unforgettable and endless fond memories, which comfort them and help ease their stress. Traveling gets us real life education. People say that if you cannot read books, then start traveling for knowledge. What we learn from traveling different places cannot be taught in any school, college or university. We learn about different cultures, different societies, different types of people, different languages. At least, if we are not able to travel abroad, we can travel our country. 62 A．Traveling offers an escape from reality. B．This enables us to know it in a better way. C．We cannot travel without interacting with anyone. D．Traveling contributes to maintaining peace of mind. E．It becomes a cycle of having meals, sleeping and working. F．One can easily travel from one place to another in less time. G．People of different countries have different ideas of traveling. （八） 语法填空 （23-24高二下·河南信阳·期末）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 Famous for its picturesque Jiangnan landscape featuring small bridges, 63 (flow) waterways, and riverside homes, Wuxi also holds the distinction of being a cradle of modern Chinese industry and commerce, drawing both 64 (local) and tourists alike. The Qingming Bridge, located in Wuxi’s Liangxi district, serves 65 a charming intersection of Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and Bodu port. Here, visitors encounter a well-preserved area 66 historic houses, shops, and the former residences of outstanding figures 67 (harmonious) coexist, creating a vivid living museum that represents the rich history and culture of the Grand Canal.

Cooling systems use gases called refrigerants. Such gases can affect the atmosphere if they escape. Some of these pollutants have been found to be more harmful than other kinds of greenhouse gases. The Nigerian government has approved restrictions on the release of refrigerant gases into the environment. But enforcement efforts for the laws have been difficult. Abiodun Ajeigbe leads an air conditioning business for Samsung, West Africa. He told The Associated Press (AP), “Those laws, those rules, nobody enforces them.” Ajeigbe said one of the biggest problems is a lack of effective education and training about the possible harms of refrigerants. This means many cooling system installers might not follow legal requirements when removing old systems or putting new ones in. Some trained workers do follow environmental rules governing the use of cooling refrigerants. But these kinds of installations cost more. Industry experts and public records suggest the most common air conditioning systems in Africa use a kind of gas known by the trade name R-22. This refrigerant is said to be less harmful to the environment than older cooling chemicals known as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). CFC's have largely been removed from most modern cooling systems. That change was put in motion by the 1987 Montreal Protocol environmental treaty. A document from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says R-22 is considered many times more damaging to the world's climate than carbon dioxide. For example, about one-half kilogram of R-22 is said to equal one ton of carbon dioxide, the most common greenhouse gas. However, while carbon dioxide can stay in the atmosphere for more than 200 years, R-22 stays for about 12 years. R-22 cooling equipment is not as energy efficient as some other systems. And most of the electricity used to power R-22 coolers in Africa requires carbon-based fuels. Nigeria is planning to ban R-22 refrigerants by January 1, 2030. But without enough enforcement, that target is not likely to be met, Samsung's Ajeigbe told the AP. Some cooling systems use a group of refrigerants called hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). These do not harm the ozone layer and are more energy efficient. But HFCs are said to be strong greenhouse gases and account for an estimated 2 percent of all human-caused warming in the atmosphere. One of the most harmful HFCs, called R-410A, is used in the second most common kind of air conditioners in Africa, the AP reported. Sellers and installers of cooling equipment in Nigeria told the news agency that although HFC systems are less damaging to the environment, they are more costly to operate. The same issues are affecting countries beyond Nigeria. In Ghana, the cooling industry also struggles to get companies and workers to obey current environmental rules. Environmental officials in Ghana told the AP that “poor servicing practices” for cooling systems are common across the country. This is largely the result of the public choosing lower-trained installers who might not follow recommended standards. In Kenya, demand for cooling systems is also growing as the population grows and electricity becomes more widely available. Cooling systems using R-22 are still common across the country. But the nation's Environmental Management Authority told the AP there have not been any new imports of the systems since 2021. Workers dealing with cooling systems and refrigerants are required to get a license. But several installation workers told the AP that since such requirements are hard to enforce, environmentally unsafe methods are carried out. 【译文欣赏】 非洲对冷却系统需求的增加加剧了环境问题 尼日利亚和其他非洲国家对冷却系统的需求不断增加，可能会使现有的污染问题更加严重。 冷却系统使用称为制冷剂的气体。这些气体如果逃逸，会影响大气。其中一些污染物被发现比其他类型的温室气体更有害。 尼日利亚政府已批准限制向环境中排放制冷剂气体。但执法工作一直很困难。 Abiodun Ajeigbe领导着三星在西非的空调业务。他告诉美联社，“那些法律、那些规则，没有人执行。” Ajeigbe说，最大的问题之一是缺乏关于制冷剂可能危害的有效教育和培训。这意味着许多冷却系统安装人员在拆卸旧系统或安装新系统时可能不遵守法律要求。 一些经过培训的工人确实遵守了使用冷却制冷剂的环境规则。但这类装置的成本更高。 行业专家和公共记录表明，非洲最常见的空调系统使用一种商品名为R-22的气体。据说这种制冷剂对环境的危害比被称为氯氟烃（CFCs）的旧冷却化学品小。大多数现代冷却系统已基本去除了CFC。1987年《蒙特利尔议定书》环境条约启动了这一变化。 美国环境保护局（EPA）的一份文件称，R-22对世界气候的破坏性被认为是二氧化碳的数倍。例如，据说大约半公斤的R-22相当于一吨二氧化碳，这是最常见的温室气体。 然而，虽然二氧化碳可以在大气中停留200多年，但R-22可以停留约12年。R-22冷却设备不如其他一些系统节能。非洲R-22冷却器的大部分电力都需要碳基燃料。 尼日利亚计划在2030年1月1日前禁止使用R-22制冷剂。但三星的Ajeigbe告诉美联社，如果没有足够的执法，这一目标不太可能实现。 一些冷却系统使用一组称为氢氟碳化合物（HFCs）的制冷剂。这些不会损害臭氧层，而且更节能。但据说氢氟碳化合物是强烈的温室气体，估计占人类造成的大气变暖的2%。 据美联社报道，一种名为R-410A的最有害的氢氟碳化合物被用于非洲第二常见的空调。尼日利亚冷却设备的销售商和安装商告诉该通讯社，尽管氢氟碳化合物系统对环境的破坏较小，但运营成本更高。 同样的问题也在影响尼日利亚以外的国家。在加纳，制冷行业也在努力让公司和工人遵守现行的环境法规。 加纳的环境官员告诉美联社，冷却系统的“不良维修做法”在全国范围内很常见。这在很大程度上是由于公众选择了训练有素的安装人员，他们可能不遵守推荐的标准。 在肯尼亚，随着人口的增长和电力的普及，对冷却系统的需求也在增长。使用R-22的冷却系统在全国范围内仍然很常见。但该国环境管理局告诉美联社，自2021年以来，没有任何新的系统进口。 处理冷却系统和制冷剂的工人需要获得许可证。但几名安装工人告诉美联社，由于这些要求难以执行，因此采用了对环境不安全的方法。 【词汇积累】 ( 6 )原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 greenhouse gases - n. gases in the Earth's atmosphere that can trap heat温室气体 install – v. put a piece of equipment somewhere and make it ready to use 安装 efficient – adj. working well and not wasting time or energy 高效的 ozone layer – n. the layer of ozone high above the Earth's surface that prevents much of the ultraviolet radiation from the sun from reaching Earth's surface臭氧层 standard –n. an accepted way of doing something that is agreed upon by industry or government officials标准 license –n. official permission to do an activity, such as driving a car, that usually involves a document驾照；许可 【知识拓展】 国际能源署表示，其分析表明，各国政府应对当前和未来电力消耗的政策，以满足降温需求，只会对减缓需求产生“非常有限的影响”。它的基本情况是，到2050年，能源需求将增加三倍，达到6200千瓦时。由于需要额外的发电和配电设备，达到峰值电力需求是一个重大挑战。 【词汇延伸】 1. refrigerant （制冷剂） 2. chlorofluorocarbon （含氯氟烃） 3. hydrofluorocarbon （氢氟烃） 4.

But a year after becoming the oldest person to visit all 63 National Parks in the US, Grandma Joy is setting out on a new global challenge with her grandson Brad Ryan, 42. This pair, who became famous in 2023 for exploring their national parks, are now planning to travel to all seven continents in the world together. “I don’t have many years left, so hurry up and go,” Grandma Joy, now 94, says. “If I slow down, I don't get anything done.” While Brad assumed that traveling with an elderly person might spoil the fun a little bit, he quickly found that this wasn’t the case. In fact, it was quite the opposite. “It made the experience of being in the great outdoors much richer,” he says, explaining that having to move more slowly meant he was able to take everything in in a more meaningful way. “I wasn’t rushing through the places that I was visiting. I was really taking the time to appreciate smaller details.” In the nearly 10 years since their first trip, Brad has noticed a big change in Grandma Joy’s physical health, explaining that she was quite shaky in the beginning but has become a lot more capable. Being able to share so many special moments with Grandma Joy has also meant that Brad has been able to ask questions that he’s never had the opportunity to ask before. While they clearly get on well with each other. the pair’s significant age gap has unavoidably led to occasional conflicts, especially when it comes to their different tastes in music. Life is very short. As for Grandma Joy, she’s enjoying making up for lost time, and now has several stamps in her first passport. “As for me, the glass is half full, not half empty. And the people that I meet along the way lift my spirits. Besides, not everybody is lucky enough to have a grandson that’s willing to drag them around,” she says. 46．What is the new ambition of Grandma Joy and Brad? A．To get passports. B．To tour the world. C．To become famous musicians. D．To visit all national parks in the US. 47．What does the underlined word “spoil” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Bring. B．Record. C．Ruin. D．Spread. 48．How has traveling together affected Grandma Joy and Brad? A．They have built a closer relationship. B．They have collected several glasses. C．They have learned to avoid all conflicts.

Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 50．What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A．Asked others about it. B．Learned something about it. C．Spent three hours researching it. D．Rented a boat. 51．What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Forbidden. B．Allowed. C．Charged. D．Limited. 52．What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A．It sits on the top of a hill. B．It is the largest stage all over China. C．It was for royalty to watch performances. D．Operas are performed there at times. 53．Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A．She took a boat by herself. B．She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C．She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D．She only toured part of the Summer Palace. 【答案】50．B 51．A 52．C 53．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了作者游玩北京颐和园的经历，事先了解了信息，然后参观了必看的佛香阁、德和园戏台，并乘船欣赏了昆明湖。 50．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet.”（出发前，我在网上查了一下。）可知，作者在出发前上网了解了一些颐和园的情况。故选B。 51．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers.”（不像其他地方，在颐和园大多数建筑都不允许拍照。大多数佛像和其他文物的照片都是摄影师的off⁃limits。）可知，颐和园的大多数建筑不允许拍照，由此推知，位于建筑中的佛像和手工艺品大多也禁止拍照，因此off-limits与forbidden意思相近。故选A。 52．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items.”（另一个亮点是看到了为慈禧太后创造的戏台，她在那里观看戏曲和其他剧场节目。）可知，戏台是给皇室看戏剧等演出的。故选C。 53．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark.

If we looked outside right now, he said, we’d see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight. My sister and I jumped out of bed, staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice. In the distance, we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes. Next door, my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica. Over breakfast, my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning. You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica, but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that. The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world. Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day. After leaving Buenos Aires, we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane. Then, it was the journey toward the Drake Passage. After a speedy Drake Passage crossing, we reached Antarctica early, adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent. To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney, the fact that you can experience Antarctica — the most distant, extreme continent — with Disney might be surprising. During the trip, there were thoughtful acts, from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne (香槟) party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us. Antarctica is a life-changing destination packed with experiences that can’t be copied. We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage, hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals, and had a taste of champagne. And honestly, it’s going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete. 54．How did the author and her sister feel when sailing past the icebergs? A．Terrific. B．Confused. C．Frightened. D．Dangerous. 55．What happened first on the author’s journey? A．They flew to Ushuaia. B．They toured around Buenos Aires. C．They passed through the Drake Passage. D．They hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals. 56．What can we infer about their travel from the last paragraph? A．The author might feel bad when crossing the Drake Passage. B．The author was the most impressed by the champagne party. C．The author believes that their next travel will be more thrilling. D．The author thought an Antarctica post office should be established. 57．Which can serve as the best title for the text? A．Exploring Antarctica — A Place with Various animals B．An Antarctic Adventure for Scientific Research C．A Comfortable Travel Experience D．A Family’s Journey to Antarctica 【答案】54．A 55．B 56．A 57．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一家的南极冒险之旅，他们从布宜诺斯艾利斯出发，经过乌斯怀亚，穿越德雷克海峡到达南极洲。在南极的第一天，他们欣赏到了冰山和座头鲸。旅程中，他们体验了南极的独特活动。作者认为这次旅行是改变人生的经历，充满了难忘的瞬间。 54．细节理解题。根据第一段中“If we looked outside right now, he said, we’d see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight. My sister and I jumped out of bed, staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice. (如果我们现在看外面，他说，我们会看到金色阳光下美丽的冰山海洋。我和妹妹从床上跳了起来，惊奇地看着我们驶过一块块巨大的冰块)”可知，在驶过冰山时，两人感觉大为惊奇，棒极了。故选A项。 55．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day. (当我们飞到布宜诺斯艾利斯，在美丽的阿根廷首都探索一天时，我们的冒险就开始了)”可知，在这次家庭之旅的一开始，他们游览了布宜诺斯艾利斯。故选B项。 56．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage, hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals, and had a taste of champagne. (我们在穿越德雷克海峡时经历了晕船，和可爱的动物一起爬上了冰山，还品尝了香槟)”可知，在穿越德雷克海峡时，作者一家经历了晕船。由此推知，作者当时感觉很糟糕。故选A项。 57．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“And honestly, it’s going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete. (老实说，我们下一次的家庭旅行可能会很难与之匹敌)”可知，文章讲述了作者一家的南极冒险之旅，他们从布宜诺斯艾利斯出发，经过乌斯怀亚，穿越德雷克海峡到达南极洲。在南极的第一天，他们欣赏到了冰山和座头鲸。旅程中，他们体验了南极的独特活动。作者认为这次旅行是改变人生的经历，充满了难忘的瞬间。因此，D项“一家人的南极之旅”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选D项。 （七） （23-24高二下·辽宁本溪·期末）Traveling is becoming more and more popular every year. It can be passion to so many people. One of the reasons behind this is the advanced transportation system that humans have achieved up to now. 58 There are even personalities who have traveled the entire world. Everyone has their own reason for traveling. Some people travel for a break in life. At times, our daily life gets very dull. 59 We get bored of doing the same things in the same way again and again every day. We need a breathing space, longing for new adventures in life. Traveling opens new doors of amusement in life. Traveling helps in improving social and communication skills. 60 Traveling involves getting connected with random strangers. It can be a true exercise to the people dealing with social anxiety. We even end up learning new languages for traveling. 61 Traveling forces us to take a break from our normal life and explore. It makes us appreciate beauties in the world. It fills us with positive energy. People suffering from spiritual illness from stress often choose the path of exploring and traveling to cure themselves. It creates unforgettable and endless fond memories, which comfort them and help ease their stress. Traveling gets us real life education.
