B Ckunsa, the language of the Lickanantay people who have lived in the Atacama Desert for more than 11,000 years, was declared "extinct" in the 195os, An extinct language is a language that no longer exists due to there being no speakers or users, in linguistics or otherwise. It's a language no one bothers to study at all. “I don't accept that my native language is extinct," says 50-year-old Tomás Vilca, an aboriginal person living in the depths of the desert. “We are bringing it back. We are going to revive our language." About 7,ooo languages are spoken worldwide, of which around 1,5oo are in danger of disappearing altogether by the end of this century. Ckunsa is not the only one to disappear. The Selk'nam, a native people who lived in the furthest southern reaches of Chile, spoke a language called Ona, which has also been declared extinct. Recently. in 2o21, Cristina Calderon, the last speaker of the Yagan language at the southernmost tip of South America. died. With her death, the Yagān language became extinct. “At the educational level, we are working constantly to revive Ckunsa through the school subject," said Margarita Makuc, head of the Chilean Education Ministry's general education division. In 2o18 and 2o19, the ministry spoke to representatives from the country's 10 native communities to build a curriculum(课程表) for the subject, which was approved and carried out in July 2o20. In October 2o2l, the first great meeting of the Ckunsa language was held in an attempt to plot a way forward for the recovery of the language. And in May this year, a foundation handed out 1,4oo mini Ckunsa dictionaries to primary school students in San Pedro de Atacama. Ilia Reyes Aymani, a local 50-year-old teacher, has written short songs in Ckunsa to teach colors and numbers to the local children. "We're trying to leave something behind for our children, much as our grandparents and ancestors did for us," says Reyes Aymani. "The more we spread the words and teach people 【高二年级第一次联考·英语 第3页(共8页)】 the faster Ckunsa grows as a language. It's great to see how people are taking it up, and showing us that our heritage matters." 24. What does the underlined word "aboriginal" in paragraph 1 probably mean? C. Local. A.Creative. B. Inexperienced. D. Unlucky. 25. How is paragraph 2 developed? A. By reasoning. B. By analyzing results. C. By experimenting. D. By giving examples 26. What is paragraph 3 mainly about A.

It is beneficial to future generations. B. It earns him a large sum of money C. It makes him feel anxious and stressed D. It gets him to know more famous people. C India has been one of the world's largest producers and consumers of wheat and rice. "We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds(种子) accordingly," said P. Ravinder Reddy,a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family's land 16 years ago, "Now, many times the seeds don't grow either because there's too much rain or it's completely dry." Some are taking to what is called natural farming-techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather-to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields(产量), so India's government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don't decrease yields. According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 7oo million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. “We really need these seeds to deal with these multiple issues created by global warming," said Ashok Kumar Singh, former director of New Delhi-based Indian Agriculture Research Institute and a scientist who specializes in plant genetics and breeding. Singh has overseen the creation of multiple successful rice varieties to resist various plant diseases. And his organization, with funding from the government, has released more than 2, oo0 seed varieties in the last decade “Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds," said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports 28. What can we learn from P. Ravinder Reddy's words? A. He has been a soldier for sixteen years. B. He has an approach to helping seeds grow. C. The climate in India has become extreme D. It is easy to predict when it will rain in India. 29. What is a consequence of applying natural farming? A. Yield decrease. B. Energy shortage. C. Land loss. D. Environmental harm. 【高二年级第一次联考·英语 第4页(共8页)】 30. What does the author want to show by mentioning 7oo million people? A. The rising population around the world. B. The right way of keeping a healthy diet C. The importance of a United Nations report. D. The necessity for developing tougher seeds 31. What is Aditi Mukherji's suggestion for the governments? A. Training their farmers. B. Creating more jobs. C. Raising the price of seeds D. Ensuring personal security. D A mysterious phenomenon first observed in 2ol3 in a remote part of the Pacific Ocean appeared so unbelievable Sensor readings seemed to show that oxygen was being made on the seabed 4,ooo meters below the surface. "I told my students to put the sensors back in the box. We shipped them back to the producer and got them tested because I thought they had given us nonsense," said Andrew Sweetman, a professor at the Scottish Association for Marine Science. "And every single time the producer came back:'They're working accurately.'" Photosynthetic organisms(光合生物) such as plants and algae use sunlight to produce oxygen that cycles into the ocean depths, but previous studies conducted in the deep sea have shown that oxygen is only consumed. not produced, by the organisms that live there. Now, the tearn's research was challenging this long-held assumption, finding oxygen produced without photosynthesis. Sweetman first made the unexpected observation that "dark oxygen" was being produced on the seafloor while assessing marine biodiversity in an area that's used for mining potato-size polymetallic nodules(多金属结核) Metals contained in the nodules are in high demand for use in solar panels, electric car batteries and other green technology. The team took some of the samples of polymetallic nodules back to study in the lab to try to understand exactly how oxygen was being produced. Working with scientists at Northwestern University, Dr. Sweetmar discovered that the nodules produce a small amount of electricity. When the nodules are close together, they create enough electricity to produce the oxygen. The discovery raises more concerns about deep-sea mining. Craig Smith from the University of Hawaii said he favored a pause on mining the nodules. Early attempts at mining efforts in the zone in the 198os provided a warning. "In 2o16 and 2017, marine biologists visited sites that were mined in the 198os and found not even bacteria had recovered in mined areas," said Smith. "In unmined regions, however, there are many species of sealife." 32. Why did Sweetman send the sensors back to the producer? A. He broke them bv accident B. He didn't need them anymore C. He thought they were out of order D. He wanted to replace them with the latest ones. 33. According to the text, the team succeeded in A. inventing electric car batteries B. producing oxygen in the deep ocean C. creating polymetallic nodules in the lab D. proving the long-held assumption wrong 34. What is Craig Smith's attitude to deep-sea mining? A. Favorable. B. Opposed. C. Unconcerned. D. Unclear. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. New Research on the Indian Ocean B. Dark Oxygen Was Found on the Seafloor C. It Is Important for Us to Protect Sealife D. A Mysterious Study on Green Technology 【高二年级第一次联考·英语 第5页(共8页)】 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Learning can be a pretty personal thing-different skills tend to work for different people, and you may find that the strategies that have helped others understand one kind of topic may not be as effective for you.
