题型：高中阅读理解 来源：外刊读物 Passage 1 字数：210 关键词：南极海冰 来源：New scientist Antarctic sea ice has witnessed an alarming decline over the past two years. This rapid change has caught the attention of researchers worldwide, who are now scrambling to assess the potential global consequences. Nerilie Abram from the Australian National University presented a striking statistic at a recent Antarctic - related conference. She pointed out that Antarctic sea ice has decreased sharply since 2014, and in July 2023, it reached a minus 7 sigma event. This event, which implies a deviation far below the average, is extremely rare. The Australian Antarctic Research Conference, held from November 19th to 22nd, was attended by 500 researchers. They were deeply engaged in discussions about the significant changes occurring at the Earth's southernmost region. When Abram's data was presented, the room fell silent, as if everyone realized the gravity of the situation. Scientists like Ed Doddridge from the Australian Antarctic Program Partnership are also involved in research activities. They are drilling ice cores and transporting them for analysis to understand the health of Antarctica. The absence of sea ice in Antarctica in the coming years could have far - reaching effects. It could impact local ecosystems and even global weather patterns, similar to the sea - ice loss in the northern hemisphere in the past. 1. 细节理解题 - 直接信息题 1.

Passage 2 字数：432 关键词：火星可能有生命 来源：New scientist Scientists have found a possible place on Mars where life could exist right now - deep underground. Andrea Butturini from the University of Barcelona and his team have been looking at places on Mars that might have what living things need to survive, like the right amount of water, heat, and chemical energy. They used data from Mars orbiters and rovers. They found that the Acidalia Planitia, a large plain in Mars' northern hemisphere, seems to have the right conditions for methanogens (bacteria that produce methane) to live several kilometers below the surface. This makes it a good target for future missions to look for life on Mars. On Earth, methanogens can be found in many places, including deep in the oceans. Some of these places, like very salty pools at the bottom of the sea, are similar to what a possible Martian underground environment might be like. The surface of Mars has low pressure and very cold or very hot temperatures (from about - 93 to 17 °C or - 136 to 62 °F, according to NASA's Perseverance rover). This makes it hard for life to exist there. But underground, there could be leftover water from Mars' past, as well as heat and chemical energy from the radioactive decay of elements like thorium. These could provide what's needed for life. Jon Telling from Newcastle University, UK, said that in theory, there's enough energy to support very slow - growing life. He also said that bacteria in these underground environments might divide only once every few hundred years, while bacteria in labs divide every 20 - 30 minutes. The idea that there could be an ecosystem underground on Mars isn't just made - up, Telling said. But it's very hard to get to these deep places to see if there's life. It's even hard to do that on Earth. We would need big manned missions to drill down that deep. The European Space Agency's Rosalind Franklin rover, which is set to launch in 2022, has a drill, but it can only drill 2 meters deep. Butturini and his colleagues used data from Mars orbiters to find areas with a lot of thorium, which could provide energy. They compared this with the locations of ice found by missions like China's Zhurong rover. They found that the most likely place for an underground ecosystem is the southern Acidalia Planitia at mid - latitudes, about 4.3 to 8.8 kilometers deep. Here, the conditions could allow liquid water to mix with the Martian soil because of the predicted temperature of the top 0 - 30 cm. 一、细节理解题 1. Where is the Acidalia Planitia located? A. In the southern hemisphere of Mars. B. In the northern hemisphere of Mars. C. On the equator of Mars. D. Near the polar region of Mars. 二、推理判断题 1.

It will be possible with the launch of the Rosalind Franklin rover. C. It requires advanced manned missions. D. It has already been achieved by previous Mars missions. 三、主旨归纳题 1. What is the main idea of the text? A. The exploration of Mars by the Rosalind Franklin rover. B. The comparison of life - forms between Earth and Mars. C. The discovery of a potential area for life beneath Mars' surface. D. The research on the surface conditions of Mars. 四、猜测词义题 1. What does the word “extant” in the sentence “It is a promising target area for future missions in the search for extant life in Mars’ subsurface” most probably mean? A. Extinct. B. Existing. C. Ancient. D. Alien. 答案：BCCB Passage 3 字数：216 关键词：禽流感威胁人类安全 来源：New scientist The H5N1 bird flu may be becoming more infectious to humans. In North America, three people with no known animal exposure have tested positive for H5N1, and samples from two suggest the virus is adapting to humans. The threat of H5N1 adapting to humans is getting closer to reality. Public health officials worry that some cases could lead to a pandemic. Although there's no clear evidence of human - to - human transmission yet, experts won't be surprised if it occurs soon. In the US, H5N1 has spread through dairy cows. Since January, 53 people have tested positive after contact with sick cows or chickens, and two others got the virus with no known animal exposure. For example, the Missouri Department of Health & Senior Services reported a case in September of someone hospitalized for another reason who tested positive for H5N1. There have been several other concerning cases. Around 900 people have had H5N1 since 2003, and about half died from it. A recent case was an adolescent in British Columbia, Canada, who was in critical condition with no known underlying health issues. Genetic analysis shows the virus infecting the Canadian teen is related to those found in Asian birds. The potential for the virus to mutate and spread among humans is a real concern. 一、细节理解题 1. How many people in North America without known animal exposures have tested positive for H5N1 according to the text? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 二、推理判断题 1. What can be inferred from the text about the H5N1 virus? A. It has already caused a pandemic in North America. B. It is certain that human - to - human transmission will occur soon. C. The virus has the potential to mutate and become more transmissible among humans. D. People with healthy conditions don't need to worry about the virus. 三、主旨归纳题 1. What is the main idea of the text? A. The measures taken to prevent the spread of H5N1 virus. B. The current situation and potential threat of H5N1 virus to humans. C. The treatment methods for patients infected with H5N1 virus. D. The comparison between different strains of bird flu viruses. 四、细节理解题 1. Where was the recent case of H5N1 virus infection reported (besides the US cases)? A. In British Columbia, Canada. B. In Atlanta, Georgia. C. In Missouri. D. In Asia. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$题型：高中阅读理解 来源：外刊读物 Passage 1 字数：210 关键词：南极海冰 来源：New scientist Antarctic sea ice has witnessed an alarming decline over the past two years.
