Most people will recognize (辨认) that the green is land, the blue is water, and the white is clouds. Taken as a whole, Earth is mainly blue. That is because of the amount (数量) of water it has that covers the surface. So, how much of Earth is water? About 71% of Earth’s surface is covered in water. Of that 71%, the oceans hold 96.5% of the water. This water found in oceans is all salt water. The remaining 3.5% of the water is fresh water, which can be found in lakes, rivers, glaciers (冰川), and in the ground. Fresh water is what people use for farming, raising animals, drinking, and daily activities such as taking showers and washing clothes or dishes. Does the amount of water stay the same? For the most part, yes. Water on Earth is part of a closed system (系统). That is, water is always moving and changing forms between ice, liquid, and gas. The form of the water changes all the time, but the total amount of water on Earth remains the same. If Earth is not necessarily running out of water, why are people worried? Why do we need to think about saving water? First, humans can only use fresh water, which is only 3.5% of all of Earth’s water. Second, of this 3.5%, only 1% is available for human use. Most fresh water is found in glaciers far from where anyone lives. Third, the amount of water that is useful for humans is being used faster than it can be cleaned and put back into the environment. Now, knowing the facts about water, it is our job to make sure we use Earth’s water in a good way. 31. The remaining 3.5% of the water on Earth CAN’T be found in ________. A. oceans B. lakes C. glaciers D. rivers 32 What does the writer mean by saying “Water on Earth is part of a closed system.”? A. The amount of water becomes smaller. B. The amount of water stays the same. C. The amount of water keeps changing. D. The amount of water becomes larger. 33. What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A. Humans can use all the water on Earth. B. Most fresh water is found in the ground. C. Humans can’t use 2.5% of the fresh water easily. D. Water can’t be cleaned and put back into the environment. 34. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Why Earth is in different colors. B. Who uses the most water on Earth. C. The amount and types of Earth’s water. D. How to use water in a good way. 【答案】31. A 32. B 33. C 34. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了地球上水的分布情况以及为什么人们要节约用水的情况。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The remaining 3.5% of the water is fresh water, which can be found in lakes, rivers, glaciers (冰川), and in the ground.”可知，地球上剩下的3.5%的水不能在海洋中找到。故选A。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“That is, water is always moving and changing forms between ice, liquid, and gas. The form of the water changes all the time, but the total amount of water on Earth remains the same.”可知，也就是说，水总是在冰、液体和气体之间移动和变换形式，水的形态一直在变化，但地球上的水总量保持不变，故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Second, of this 3.5%, only 1% is available for human use. Most fresh water is found in glaciers far from where anyone lives.”可知，人类不能轻易使用2.5%的淡水，故选C。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Taken as a whole, Earth is mainly blue. That is because of the amount (数量) of water it has that covers the surface.”以及整个文章的理解可知，主要是介绍球上水的数量和种类，并介绍为什么要节约用水的情况，故选C。 B In a video young children call out to their mother or father; the parents enter the room smiling, turn around and call out to their own parents; the grandparents then enter smiling and call out to their parents—the great-grandparents. The format (形式) of this kind of video is being described as the “four-generation challenge”. It started on the Chinese short-video platform, Douyin, and has since spread to social media in other countries. People from all over the world have commented (评论) on the videos and even made their own versions (版本). “Family care is usually a strong value,” wrote one Facebook user named Antoine Yupud. The “four-generation” videos have not only touched foreign viewers but also given them a deeper look into Chinese family values. In most East Asian cultures, it is common for many generations of a single family to live together under one roof. This is called an extended family. In most Western countries, most families are nuclear families, which are made up of just children and their parents. In Western culture, privacy (隐私) and independence are highly valued. Kids usually move out of the house after they grow up. Many of them apply for loans (贷款) and do part-time jobs in order to pay for college and rent. If they choose to continue living with their parents after becoming an adult, it can be seen as a sign of immaturity or failure. Although family structures (结构) in the East and West may be different, the love and bonds between family members are common. That might be why the “four-generation” videos have won so many hearts around the world. 35. What’s the “four-generation challenge” video mainly about? A. How family members eat together. B. How young children play with their parents. C. How grandparents are well cared for. D. How four generations of one family can all live together. 36. Which writing skill is used in Para. 4? A. Giving reasons. B. Making comparisons. C. Listing numbers. D. Using sayings. 37. What does the underlined word “nuclear families” mean? A. 小家庭 B. 大家庭 C. 丁克家庭 D. 重组家庭 38. What makes the video so popular in the world? A. Foreign people’s interest in Chinese culture. B. The differences between different cultures. C. The commonly shared love and bonds in families. D. The video format that never appeared before. 【答案】35. D 36. B 37. A 38. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了“四世同堂”短视频火遍全球，中国式亲情暖哭外国网友。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In a video, young children call out to their mother or father; the parents enter the room smiling, turn around and call out to their own parents; the grandparents then enter smiling and call out to their parents—the great-grandparents.”可知，“四世同堂”视频主要是介绍了有四代的家庭生活在一起。故选D。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。通读第四段可知，在大多数东亚文化中，一个家庭几代人住在一个屋檐下是很常见的。这就是所谓的大家庭。在大多数西方国家，大多数家庭都是核心家庭，由孩子和父母组成。本段主要通过运用比较的写作手法说明东、西方家庭结构不同。故选B。 【37题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文解释“which are made up of just children and their parents.”可知，“nuclear families核心家庭”是由孩子和父母组成的家庭，相比较于几代人住在一起的大家庭来说算是小家庭。故选A。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Although family structures (结构) in the East and West may be different, the love and bonds between family members are common. That might be why the ‘four-generation’ videos have won so many hearts around the world.”可知，家庭成员之间共同的爱和纽带是使该视频火起来的原因。故选C。 四、语法填空。 (2*12) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。 I love Spring Festival. ____39____ (celebrate) it is one of my family traditions.

Most people will recognize (辨认) that the green is land, the blue is water, and the white is clouds. Taken as a whole, Earth is mainly blue. That is because of the amount (数量) of water it has that covers the surface. So, how much of Earth is water? About 71% of Earth’s surface is covered in water. Of that 71%, the oceans hold 96.5% of the water. This water found in oceans is all salt water. The remaining 3.5% of the water is fresh water, which can be found in lakes, rivers, glaciers (冰川), and in the ground. Fresh water is what people use for farming, raising animals, drinking, and daily activities such as taking showers and washing clothes or dishes. Does the amount of water stay the same? For the most part, yes. Water on Earth is part of a closed system (系统). That is, water is always moving and changing forms between ice, liquid, and gas. The form of the water changes all the time, but the total amount of water on Earth remains the same. If Earth is not necessarily running out of water, why are people worried? Why do we need to think about saving water? First, humans can only use fresh water, which is only 3.5% of all of Earth’s water. Second, of this 3.5%, only 1% is available for human use. Most fresh water is found in glaciers far from where anyone lives. Third, the amount of water that is useful for humans is being used faster than it can be cleaned and put back into the environment. Now, knowing the facts about water, it is our job to make sure we use Earth’s water in a good way. 31. The remaining 3.5% of the water on Earth CAN’T be found in ________. A oceans B. lakes C. glaciers D. rivers 32. What does the writer mean by saying “Water on Earth is part of a closed system.”? A. The amount of water becomes smaller. B. The amount of water stays the same. C. The amount of water keeps changing. D. The amount of water becomes larger. 33. What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A. Humans can use all the water on Earth. B. Most fresh water is found in the ground. C. Humans can’t use 2.5% of the fresh water easily. D. Water can’t be cleaned and put back into the environment. 34. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Why Earth is in different colors. B. Who uses the most water on Earth. C. The amount and types of Earth’s water. D. How to use water in a good way. B In a video, young children call out to their mother or father; the parents enter the room smiling, turn around and call out to their own parents; the grandparents then enter smiling and call out to their parents—the great-grandparents. The format (形式) of this kind of video is being described as the “four-generation challenge”. It started on the Chinese short-video platform, Douyin, and has since spread to social media in other countries. People from all over the world have commented (评论) on the videos and even made their own versions (版本). “Family care is usually a strong value,” wrote one Facebook user named Antoine Yupud. The “four-generation” videos have not only touched foreign viewers but also given them a deeper look into Chinese family values. In most East Asian cultures, it is common for many generations of a single family to live together under one roof. This is called an extended family. In most Western countries, most families are nuclear families, which are made up of just children and their parents. In Western culture, privacy (隐私) and independence are highly valued. Kids usually move out of the house after they grow up. Many of them apply for loans (贷款) and do part-time jobs in order to pay for college and rent. If they choose to continue living with their parents after becoming an adult, it can be seen as a sign of immaturity or failure. Although family structures (结构) in the East and West may be different, the love and bonds between family members are common. That might be why the “four-generation” videos have won so many hearts around the world. 35. What’s the “four-generation challenge” video mainly about? A. How family members eat together. B. How young children play with their parents. C. How grandparents are well cared for. D. How four generations of one family can all live together. 36. Which writing skill is used in Para. 4? A. Giving reasons. B. Making comparisons. C. Listing numbers. D. Using sayings. 37. What does the underlined word “nuclear families” mean? A. 小家庭 B. 大家庭 C. 丁克家庭 D. 重组家庭 38. What makes the video so popular in the world? A. Foreign people’s interest in Chinese culture. B. The differences between different cultures. C. The commonly shared love and bonds in families. D. The video format that never appeared before. 四、语法填空。 (2*12) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的词，或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。 I love Spring Festival. ____39____ (celebrate) it is one of my family traditions.
