三、完形填空
At the midnight, thunder(雷)was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed into my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up! We're flooding! ”He shouted and 26 me by the shoulders.
That woke me up! I ran downstairs to the basement(地下室). It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to 27 things and take them upstairs. I had no shoes on,so my feet felt quite cold.
Things got 28 every minute. Within the next hour,we had moved everything that we could to the first floor. The computer,TV and heavy boxes filled with our most valuable things were taken to safety. 29 , our piano,sofa,washing machine and water heater were all still down there—being destroyed. There was nothing we could do.
Knowing that your home is being destroyed is bad enough,but realizing that you can't do anything to 30 it feels even worse. Water had come in our front door. Rescue(营救)boats were floating in our streets. Mother told 31 to pack an overnight bag of clothes and valuables and get ready to leave.
When it was 32 safe to walk outside,all the people in the neighborhood gathered at the street corner. People became friends, 33 friends became like family. People comforted(安慰)each other. We learned later that the storm became a flash flood on the report.
I really have learned 34 from this flood. I've learned what destruction(毁灭)is and what safety means. I know in the future,when I watch 35 people in natural disasters,I can understand them. I will show my great pity on them and try my best to help them.

四、阅读理解
The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and communication means(工具). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people have, the more pollution becomes. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.
Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of pollution, it is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must pay attention to the rise in pollution at the same time.
36.According to the passage, ________, our world is becoming much smaller.
A.because of the rise in pollution
B.thanks to science development
C.because the earth is being polluted day and night
D.because the earth is blowing away by the wind every year
37.Hundreds of years ago, life was ________ it is today.
A.as early as B.much easier than
C.as hard as D.much harder than
38.In paragraph 1, the underlined word “it” means ________ .
A.rubbish B.noise pollution
C.air pollution D.water pollution
39.Which of the following in NOT true?
A.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution
B.The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world pollution does.
C.The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.
D.If people could go to work by bus or by bike instead of car or motorbike, it would be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2.
40.What might be the best title for the text?
A.Air Pollution B.Today’s life
C.Protect the earth D.Pollution by SO2
From the loss of wildlife to rising sea levels, we’re all well aware of the problems that climate change can cause.
But while it may seem like such problems won’t influence most of us directly, it looks like future generations could grow up without something that many of us now take for granted: chocolate.
According to an article published by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, changes to the climate in the regions that produce cacao (可可豆)—the plant from which chocolate is produced—may mean that it will soon become extinct.
Most of the world’s cacao grows in countries close to the equator (赤道), with over half of it growing in the African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast.
It’s expected that by 2050, climate change will make temperatures in these countries rise faster, making it extremely difficult for cacao to grow there.
The problem doesn’t lie in increased heat, however, but in lower humidity (湿度), as it is believed that rainfall will stay at the same level if the temperature rises.
“In other words, as higher temperatures take more water out of soil and plants, it’s unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to make up for the loss,” Michon Scotty the article’s author, wrote.
To help fight this problem, researchers from Berkeley University in the US are working on changing the DNA of cacao plants to allow them to survive in dryer conditions by using gene editing technology (基因编辑技术), according to US New.
41.Paragraph 1 is written to _________.
A.introduce the topic
B.explain a problem
C.state how the writer feel about chocolate
D.show why rainfall has decreased in Africa
42.Which of the following sentences can be filled with the word “extinct” in Paragraph 3?
A.熄灭了的 B.幸存的 C.灭绝的 D.存活的
43.Where is cacao usually grown?
A.In the southern hemisphere (半球). B.In the northern hemisphere.
C.In countries with lots of rainfall. D.In countries near the equator.
44.What does Michon Scott think is the key to the problem?
A.Hot weather. B.Dry soil. C.Lower humidity. D.High rainfall.
45.What are researchers doing to help solve the problem?
A.Finding new places to grow cacao. B.Asking famers for help.
C.Changing how cacao is produced. D.Changing the genes of cacao plants.
In most situations, light helps us see. But now humans are using too much of it. In fact, it’s a kind of pollution.
According to scientific research, about 2,500 stars can be seen by the human’s eyes. But because of light pollution, you can only see 200 to 300 stars from today’s countryside, and no more than ten stars from a city. In most big cities, people can’t see the sky filled with stars like they did in their childhood.
Light pollution influences more than just our view of sky. Research shows that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife, too. When birds fly to another place over cities, they sometimes get lost by bright light and fly in circles until they drop from tiredness. Sea turtles (海龟) need dark beaches for laying eggs, but they can’t find good places because of those bright lights. Too much light at night may even harm human’s health, but scientists are not sure of that. They are still learning more.
In order to stop things from going worse, the governments and organizations (组织) are working hard to reduce light pollution. Many cities and towns have taken actions to reduce the use of lights at night. Lights are used only when and where they are truly needed. They also shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky and use lower brightness levels.
Hopefully, in the near future, humans can enjoy the clear and beautiful sky again and all the wildlife will live a peaceful life, too.
46.With light pollution, how many stars can people see in the city?
A.About 10. B.About 300. C.About 2500. D.About 100.
47.How does light pollution harm sea turtles?
A.They feel tired easily.
B.They may get lost by bright light.
C.It is too bright for them to find places to lay eggs.
D.It is too dark for them to find places to lay eggs.
48.Which is Not the way to reduce light pollution according to the passage?
A.People should only use light when they truly need it.
B.People should use lower brightness levels.
C.People should shine light down at the ground.
D.People should stop using all light they need.
49.How does the write show the harm to wildlife caused by light pollution?
A.By giving numbers. B.By giving examples.
C.By drawing charts (图表). D.By answering questions.
50.How does the writer feel about dealing with light pollution?
A.Worried. B.Angry. C.Hopeful. D.Excited.
COP26 took place from 1st to 12th November, 2021 in Glasgow, Scotland. COP26 is the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference (联合国气候变化大会). At COP26, world leaders, scientists and environmental workers will work together. And they also plan action against climate (气候) change to protect people and the earth.
Climate change is causing problems all over the world. Now we have almost five times more earthquakes, snowstorms and other natural disasters (灾难) than 40 years ago. And some of the poorest people in the world are in great danger. That’s why action needs to be taken now to fight against climate change, or it will be too late.
Young people are at the front of the movement for climate action. School students around the world called for more action in 2019. A young girl named Greta Thunberg has spoken to world leaders about climate change. Before COP26 in Glasgow, there was a COP26 Youth Summit (峰会) from 28th to 30th September, Italy. About 400 young people from 197 countries attended the summit. Some traveled to Milan, others attended online. The young people worked together in groups to develop plans for climate action.

At the midnight, thunder(雷)was crashing and the rain was pouring. Suddenly my father rushed into my room. “Adam! Adam! Get up! We're flooding! ”He shouted and 26 me by the shoulders.
That woke me up! I ran downstairs to the basement(地下室). It was like a swimming pool. My mother and I immediately started to 27 things and take them upstairs. I had no shoes on,so my feet felt quite cold.
Things got 28 every minute. Within the next hour,we had moved everything that we could to the first floor. The computer,TV and heavy boxes filled with our most valuable things were taken to safety. 29 , our piano,sofa,washing machine and water heater were all still down there—being destroyed. There was nothing we could do.
Knowing that your home is being destroyed is bad enough,but realizing that you can't do anything to 30 it feels even worse. Water had come in our front door. Rescue(营救)boats were floating in our streets. Mother told 31 to pack an overnight bag of clothes and valuables and get ready to leave.
When it was 32 safe to walk outside,all the people in the neighborhood gathered at the street corner. People became friends, 33 friends became like family. People comforted(安慰)each other. We learned later that the storm became a flash flood on the report.
I really have learned 34 from this flood. I've learned what destruction(毁灭)is and what safety means. I know in the future,when I watch 35 people in natural disasters,I can understand them. I will show my great pity on them and try my best to help them.

四、阅读理解
The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and communication means(工具). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people have, the more pollution becomes. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.
Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of pollution, it is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must pay attention to the rise in pollution at the same time.
36.According to the passage, ________, our world is becoming much smaller.
A.because of the rise in pollution
B.thanks to science development
C.because the earth is being polluted day and night
D.because the earth is blowing away by the wind every year
37.Hundreds of years ago, life was ________ it is today.
A.as early as B.much easier than
C.as hard as D.much harder than
38.In paragraph 1, the underlined word “it” means ________ .
A.rubbish B.noise pollution
C.air pollution D.water pollution
39.Which of the following in NOT true?
A.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution
B.The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world pollution does.
C.The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.
D.If people could go to work by bus or by bike instead of car or motorbike, it would be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2.
40.What might be the best title for the text?
A.Air Pollution B.Today’s life
C.Protect the earth D.Pollution by SO2

From the loss of wildlife to rising sea levels, we’re all well aware of the problems that climate change can cause.
But while it may seem like such problems won’t influence most of us directly, it looks like future generations could grow up without something that many of us now take for granted: chocolate.
According to an article published by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, changes to the climate in the regions that produce cacao (可可豆)—the plant from which chocolate is produced—may mean that it will soon become extinct.
Most of the world’s cacao grows in countries close to the equator (赤道), with over half of it growing in the African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast.
It’s expected that by 2050, climate change will make temperatures in these countries rise faster, making it extremely difficult for cacao to grow there.
The problem doesn’t lie in increased heat, however, but in lower humidity (湿度), as it is believed that rainfall will stay at the same level if the temperature rises.
“In other words, as higher temperatures take more water out of soil and plants, it’s unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to make up for the loss,” Michon Scotty the article’s author, wrote.
To help fight this problem, researchers from Berkeley University in the US are working on changing the DNA of cacao plants to allow them to survive in dryer conditions by using gene editing technology (基因编辑技术), according to US New.
41.Paragraph 1 is written to _________.
A.introduce the topic
B.explain a problem
C.state how the writer feel about chocolate
D.show why rainfall has decreased in Africa
42.Which of the following sentences can be filled with the word “extinct” in Paragraph 3?
A.熄灭了的 B.幸存的 C.灭绝的 D.存活的
43.Where is cacao usually grown?
A.In the southern hemisphere (半球). B.In the northern hemisphere.
C.In countries with lots of rainfall. D.In countries near the equator.
44.What does Michon Scott think is the key to the problem?
A.Hot weather. B.Dry soil. C.Lower humidity. D.High rainfall.
45.What are researchers doing to help solve the problem?
A.Finding new places to grow cacao. B.Asking famers for help.
C.Changing how cacao is produced. D.Changing the genes of cacao plants.
【答案】41.A 42.C 43.D 44.C 45.D
【导语】本文主要介绍了随着气候变化可能会导致未来孩子吃不到巧克力了,本文详细地解释了是什么会导致可可豆减少甚至灭绝以及对此采取的措施。
41.主旨大意题。根据“From the loss of wildlife to rising sea levels, we’re all well aware of the problems that climate change can cause”可知,第一段是为了引出本文的主题,故选A。
42.词义猜测题。根据“the plant from which chocolate is produced—may mean that it will soon become extinct”可知,生产巧克力的这种植物很快就会灭绝,所以extinct表示“灭绝的”,故选C。
43.细节理解题。根据“Most of the world’s cacao grows in countries close to the equator (赤道), with over half of it growing in the African nations of Ghana and Ivory Coast”可知,大部分的可可生长在靠近赤道的国家,其中超过一半的可可生长在非洲国家加纳和象牙海岸,故选D。
44.细节理解题。根据“The problem doesn’t lie in increased heat, however, but in lower humidity”以及“In other words, as higher temperatures take more water out of soil and plants, it’s unlikely that rainfall will increase enough to make up for the loss”可知,关键的是土壤和植物中水分的流失,也就是湿度的降低,故选C。
45.细节理解题。根据“To help fight this problem, researchers from Berkeley University in the US are working on changing the DNA of cacao plants to allow them to survive in dryer conditions by using gene editing technology”可知,改变可可豆的DNA来解决这个问题,故选D。
In most situations, light helps us see. But now humans are using too much of it. In fact, it’s a kind of pollution.
According to scientific research, about 2,500 stars can be seen by the human’s eyes. But because of light pollution, you can only see 200 to 300 stars from today’s countryside, and no more than ten stars from a city. In most big cities, people can’t see the sky filled with stars like they did in their childhood.
Light pollution influences more than just our view of sky. Research shows that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife, too. When birds fly to another place over cities, they sometimes get lost by bright light and fly in circles until they drop from tiredness. Sea turtles (海龟) need dark beaches for laying eggs, but they can’t find good places because of those bright lights. Too much light at night may even harm human’s health, but scientists are not sure of that. They are still learning more.
In order to stop things from going worse, the governments and organizations (组织) are working hard to reduce light pollution. Many cities and towns have taken actions to reduce the use of lights at night. Lights are used only when and where they are truly needed. They also shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky and use lower brightness levels.
Hopefully, in the near future, humans can enjoy the clear and beautiful sky again and all the wildlife will live a peaceful life, too.
46.With light pollution, how many stars can people see in the city?
A.About 10. B.About 300. C.About 2500. D.About 100.
47.How does light pollution harm sea turtles?
A.They feel tired easily.
B.They may get lost by bright light.
C.It is too bright for them to find places to lay eggs.
D.It is too dark for them to find places to lay eggs.
48.Which is Not the way to reduce light pollution according to the passage?
A.People should only use light when they truly need it.
B.People should use lower brightness levels.
C.People should shine light down at the ground.
D.People should stop using all light they need.
49.How does the write show the harm to wildlife caused by light pollution?
A.By giving numbers. B.By giving examples.
C.By drawing charts (图表). D.By answering questions.
50.How does the writer feel about dealing with light pollution?
A.Worried. B.Angry. C.Hopeful. D.Excited.
