Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·唐山模拟)T.O.Fuller State Park in Memphis, Tennessee, has been loved for generations and has always been a ground where community has come first.Back in 1938, it was the first park east of the Mississippi river to open for African American visitors.Over 80 years later, the park is continuing its forward-thinking tradition, this time, through a pioneering sustainability project.
语篇训练
A new walking and biking trail has been built through this historic park.Illegally dumped (被丢弃的) tires are not only unpleasant to see, but they're a dangerous addition to the environment.Rubber, like plastic, is a material that won't naturally decompose.In a place as hot as Tennessee, these dumped tires often begin to melt and release these harmful gases into the air.Fortunately, the old tires were sent to Patriot Tire Recycling in Bristol, TN, the only facility in the area that can break down tires in an environmentally sound way.There, the collected tires were safely broken down into the crumble (碎屑) rubber that was eventually used to pave the new trail.
TN State Parks explained how the trail's construction, which has been in development since 2019, was a joint effort.Officials from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, the Tennessee Department of Transportation, the City of Memphis, Shelby County, and Memphis City Beautiful were all involved in funding this recycling project.
These officials named their initiative the “Tires to Trails” project.Workers from these departments, alongside some 450 volunteers, came together to collect over 24,000 tires that had been illegally dumped in the area around the park to be recycled.
“This is a perfect example of recycling in full circle, collecting dumped material, then converting it into positive use,” David, a leader of the project, said in a statement.

语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国商业运载火箭迎来一个新成员:智能龙3号,或称“捷龙3号”,并介绍了这个运载火箭的特点等。
1.or 考查连词。根据句中的“a new member”和“its”可知,Smart Dragon-3和Jielong-3是一个运载火箭的两个不同名字,因此两者之间是选择关系。故填or。
2.precisely 考查副词。修饰动词sending应该用副词作状语。故填precisely。
3.weighing 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰The vehicle,且The vehicle 和动词weigh之间为主动关系,应用现在分词形式。故填weighing。
4.larger 考查形容词比较级。根据句意可知,此处应用形容词比较级修饰名词cone。故填larger。
5.is 考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据and判断设空处在句中和is,has作并列谓语,主语是It,故填is。
6.which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为cold launches,从句中缺少主语成分,故填which。
7.itself 考查代词。根据空后的“its”判断,此处是指Smart Dragon-3用自己的发动机把自己推送出舱,应用反身代词。故填itself。
8.equipment 考查名词。本句缺少介词to的宾语,应用名词形式。故填equipment。
9.to reduce 考查非谓语动词。the ability to do sth.意为“做某事的能力”,为固定用法。故填to reduce。
