He became a very close friend of the prince. Later,He fought on Prince Yan's side and accompanied him on numerous battles throughout China.He was a key player in Yan's gaining imperial power ()In 1404, Zheng He was promoted to Grand Eunuch.The Yongle Emperor appointed Zheng commander of a large treasure fleet()and over twenty thousand men.Zheng He,at thirty-three years old,had the highest rank of any eunuch in the history of China.

The Indian government's to-do list is long.But there are three issues that,if dealt with,could bring about big improvements.The environment is one. Every year farmers setting fire to rice straw create a heavy seasonal smog.This smog gives off other poisonous gases to form bad air,which may cause as many as 1.2 million premature deaths a year,and thus reduce the average life span by four years.But much of India's air pollution is simply the price of its economic progress.Western countries went through it and their democratic process forced them to change.However,India is not strong enough to force a complete change in environmental policies.On paper,India has strong laws and institutions for protecting the environment,including a powerful National Green Agency, which helps strengthen enforcement ()Its government has taken some big steps, adopting stricter vehicle-emissions standards,and achieving some ambitious solar-power targets.India is just spending $150 million on public messaging and new equipment to persuade farmers out of burning their fields,and has closed down some urban coal-fired power stations. Indians are not victims of these thoughtful policies but of a system's failure to account for and deal with the uglier side-effects of progress.At the climate-change talks that led to the Paris agreement,India argued that it was unfair to be punished for following the same path as developed economies and thus was allowed to give relatively loose guarantees.India promised, for instance,that solar power will reach 36%of its power generation capacity by 2030,which sounds impressive.Yet the government itself predicts that it will only account for 23%of actual electricity generation compared to capacity.Coal's share is expected to fall from 74%to 50%of the mix,but since the total amount of power will grow,that still means adding more coal-burning power plants.When the growth in carbon-dioxide output has slowed down or fallen in much of the world,including China,India has doubled that since 2005.Nevertheless, some countries have shown tolerance. 32.What does the underlined word "premature"in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Normal.B.Earlier. C.Delayed. D.Peaceful. 33.What mainly led to such polluted air in India? A.Poverty and inequality. B.Changing traditional techniques. C.The severe effects of natural deaths D.Economic development regardless of the environment. 34.What is the international community's attitude towards Indian pollution? A.Taking severe punishment. B.Remaining more controllable. C.Giving relative understanding. D.Helping solve problems actively. 吉安市高二上学期期末教学质量检测英语试题第5页共8页 回▣ 夸克扫描王 极速扫描，就是高效 35.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.China is doing well in terms of cutting carbon-dioxide output. B.India lied purposely in the global climate-change talks. C.India will see a fall in carbon-dioxide output due to its loose policies. D.China has taken few measures to protect the environment. 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 If you are like millions of people around the world who want to save money,lose weight or learn a new skill,the New Year is sure to bring you new goals.36 Identify specific goals.

I buried my face in the water,and then raised my head again.What I did was to show him how easy the process was.But every time Bob did so,his nose got water and then coughed violently,and finally burst into tears. But I didn't lose heart.I started thinking differently.I dived into the water.Then I suddenly jumped out of the water.At this time he burst out laughing.So he started asking me to perform it again.And later even when I swam out into the deep water,he rode bravely on my back until he learned to bury his face in the water. "You,father and son,are having fun."I was going to my next step of teaching when a voice came.It was Mike,my friend.Every afternoon he rowed a small boat to the deep lake to fetch buckets()of water for the next day-the water there was so clear and sweet. “Would you like to fetch water with me?” "I'll go."Bob rushed to say.He was also very familiar with Mike,who often brought some sweets for Bob to eat. Bob had never been on a boat,but he was not afraid.I put him on the bench next to me, holding him in one hand and helping Mike with the other. After a while,Mike said."The boat has gone far enough.The water here should be fine." We watched Mike put the bucket into the lake,and then carry it onto the boat again and again. However,every time Mike carried a bucket of water,the boat would shake from side to side. When Mike fetched the final,the boat leaned over and was slowly overturned!All the three of us were drowned in the lake. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1:I reached out to catch Bob,but I could not reach him.
