Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2024·辽宁省名校联盟高二联考)In November 2023,Virgin Atlantic flew a large passenger jet from London to New York using 100% “Sustainable Aviation(航空) Fuel(SAF)”.The flight was meant to show that it's possible to fly using cleaner fuels.
The fuel used on the flight was mainly made from used cooking oils and animal fats.A small part of the fuel was made from corn waste.Virgin Atlantic says that using SAF cuts the flight's pollution by 70%.SAF still pollutes when it's burned,just like regular jet fuel.However,the difference is in how the fuels are made.
SAF is made from plants (and related animal products) that once absorbed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air.When SAF burns,it just releases this same CO2 again.That's different from jet fuel,which is made from oil exploited from underground,releasing CO2 that was deeply buried.
SAF may sound great,but it still has many problems.For one thing,SAF costs five times as much as regular jet fuel.That helps explain why only onetenth of 1% of the fuel airlines currently use is SAF.Virgin Atlantic is hoping that its flight will encourage more companies to produce SAF and that this will bring the price down.
But even if the price of SAF drops,critics say there are still big problems with it.They say it's easy to make small amounts of SAF out of plant waste.But to make as much SAF as the airlines really need would require farmers to grow plants for fuel instead of for eating.This could also lead to more forests being cut down for farmland.
Airlines like SAF because it can be used now in existing planes with no changes.They hope it will help quickly reduce airplane pollution until nonpolluting fuels are developed.
Governments seem to agree that SAF is a step in the right direction.Both the United States and the European Union have set targets that will sharply increase the use of SAF in coming years.
1.What makes SAF superior to regular jet fuel?
A.Its production method. B.Being pollutionfree.
C.Its storage technology. D.Being easy to burn.
2.What does the underlined word “exploited” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Destroyed. B.Replaced.
C.Drawn. D.Checked.
3.Why are only a few fuel airlines using SAF?
A.SAF is heavy.
B.SAF is expensive.
C.SAF needs new equipment.
D.SAF may cause safety issues.
4.What is governments' probable attitude towards using SAF?
A.Unclear. B.Negative.
C.Doubtful. D.Approving.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了可持续航空燃料(SAF)的优缺点。
1.A [解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However,the difference is in how the fuels are made.(然而,不同之处在于燃料是如何制造的。)”和第三段中的“SAF is made from plants (and related animal products) that once absorbed carbon dioxide(CO2) from the air.[SAF是由曾经从空气中吸收二氧化碳的植物(以及相关的动物产品)制成的。]”可知,制作方法让SAF优于普通的喷气燃料。故选A。
2.C [解析]词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“这与喷气燃料不同,喷气燃料是由地下‘exploited’的石油制成的,释放出深埋在地下的二氧化碳。”可知,喷气燃料是由地下开采的石油制成的。故画线词的意思与drawn“抽出”接近。故选C。
3.B [解析]细节理解题。根据第四段中的“For one thing,SAF costs five times as much as regular jet fuel.”可知,SAF的价格是普通喷气燃料的五倍,因此SAF价格昂贵。故选B。
4.D [解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Governments seem to agree that SAF is a step in the right direction.”可知,各国政府似乎都同意SAF是朝着正确方向迈出的一步,因此,政府对SAF是支持的。故选D。
