Ⅱ.七选五
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了海浪发电的优势、缺点以及发展前景。
1.D 根据上文“The advantages of wave power are clear.(海浪发电的优势显而易见)”可知,本句承接上文,具体说明波浪能的环保优势:不会释放温室气体。故D选项“波浪能在产生时不会释放温室气体”符合语境,故选D。
2.G 根据上文“There is also a lot of potential because many countries have access to an ocean that can help power their electric systems. Also, waves are hardly interrupted and almost always in movement.(还有很大的潜力,因为许多国家都有海洋,可以为他们的电力系统提供动力。而且,波浪几乎没有中断,几乎总是在运动。)”可知,上文提到波浪几乎没有中断,几乎总是在运动,本句为本段最后一句,应承接上文说明其结果:这使得波浪能发电成为更可靠的能源。故G选项“这使得波浪能发电成为更可靠的能源”符合语境,故选G。
3.E 根据上文“But the disadvantages of wave energy are serious too. Building factories or electrical wires directly on the beach might prove challenging.(但是波浪能的缺点也很严重。直接在海滩上建造工厂或电线可能具有挑战性。)”可知,上文提到直接在海滩上建造工厂或电线可能具有挑战性,故本句承接上文具体说明建造工厂或电线的危害:会对海洋生物和周围的生态系统造成损害。故E选项“它们会对海洋生物和周围的生态系统造成损害”符合语境,故选E。
4.F 根据上文“High cost is a problem too. Wave power is a rising energy technology in the early stages of development, so calculating the costs is difficult.(高昂的成本也是一个问题。波浪能是一项处于发展早期阶段的新兴能源技术,因此计算成本是困难的。)”以及后文“Because constant movement can lead to more breaking, wave energy factories will most likely need regular and costly maintenance.(由于不断地移动会导致更多的损坏,波浪能工厂很可能需要定期和昂贵的维护。)”可知,本句主要在说明工厂的维护成本高昂的问题。故F选项“流动盐水工厂的维护费用非常昂贵”符合语境,故选F。
5.C 后文提到海浪能在全球范围内具有巨大的潜力,说明波浪能还是存在未来发展的可能性。故C选项“尽管存在挑战,波浪能还是有未来的”符合语境,故选C。
Ⅲ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个叫博扬·斯莱特的男孩,在16岁去希腊潜水时看到海里到处是塑料垃圾,决定专注于解决海洋塑料垃圾问题,并发明了世界上第一个海上塑料收集系统,这个系统定期将海里的塑料垃圾运上岸并进行回收。
1.B 根据前文的“And so he was,seven years ago”可知,他没退学之前是一名大学生。drop out为固定短语,意为“退学,辍学”。故选B。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
(2024·济宁高二期末)Imagine if it were easy for everyone to get to the seashore, to smell the sea winds and to feel seawater on their skin. Wouldn't it be great if people with walking difficulty could also get closer to the ocean to enjoy the thrill of a sunset, watching the sun's rays light up the waves? The good news is that things are moving in the right direction!
In a CDC study, around 14% of adults in the US report a mobility disability, defined as serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs. This can make vacation planning a challenge and put some destinations offlimits. But technology companies like Mobimat are making a day at the beach for people with limited mobility a reality.
Mobimat has developed some exciting innovations like nonslip rollout accessibility mats(垫子). These function like red carpets at movie premieres(首映), taking people with special needs right to the seashore. They are made of a fine nylon material that is designed for people who use wheelchairs or may otherwise need a firmer surface to cross the sand.
More cities are working to make enjoyment of the beach much more wideranging in other creative ways based on regional conditions. The town of Jupiter in Florida has opened up access to its beaches to people who have trouble going up and down stairs via three new wide wooden walkovers. The Miami Herald recently reported on the upcoming construction of a wheelchairaccessible beachfront observation platform, and upgraded park with adaptive playground and exercise equipment for people with disabilities in Miami Beach.
Inspired by creative innovation, forwardlooking policymakers and companies, and the shared demands of disabled people who are calling for better access to beautiful beach locations, it seems that many more people of all abilities will be able to head to the beach.
1.What is the good news mentioned in paragraph 1?
A.The seashore becomes the hottest destination. B.The ocean environment changes for the better.
C.Beaches are more accessible to the disabled. D.Approaching the sea benefits disabled people.
2.What can we learn about the mat from Mobimat?
A.It offers a firm surface. B.It originates from movies.
C.It replaces wheelchairs. D.It functions beneath the sand.
3.What can be inferred about the measures in Jupiter and Miami?
A.They're well behind schedule. B.They center on ocean protection.
C.They need to be more creative. D.They're tailored to local conditions.
4.What is the purpose of this text?
A.To introduce a friendly move. B.To recommend a treatment.
C.To advertise beautiful beaches. D.To report findings of a study.
Ⅱ.七选五
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。
(2024·日照高二统考)Oceans are an appealing target for renewable energy production. Waves produce 32,000 terawatthours of natural energy per year—for reference, the entire world uses around 23,000 terawatthours every year.
The advantages of wave power are clear.__1__ Turbines produce electricity through the power of waves, making them a completely pollutionfree, renewable energy source. And the amount of kinetic energy in a wave is huge that energy is used to produce electricity. There is also a lot of potential because many countries have access to an ocean that can help power their electric systems. Also, waves are hardly interrupted and almost always in movement. __2__
But the disadvantages of wave energy are serious too. Building factories or electrical wires directly on the beach might prove challenging.__3__ Local fishing zones could be affected or the factories could lead to more coastal erosion. High cost is a problem too. Wave power is a rising energy technology in the early stages of development, so calculating the costs is difficult. __4__ Because constant movement can lead to more breaking, wave energy factories will most likely need regular and costly maintenance.
__5__ For many oceanbordering countries, wave energy will be a great addition to the renewable energy mix. The bottom line is that wave power has enormous global potential. However, the industry needs more funding and research to finalize the technology involved so that countries can begin adding wave energy to their renewable energy source.
A.Wave energy still need to be explored.
B.They are not affordable to many countries.
C.Despite the challenges, there is a future of wave energy.
D.Wave energy does not give off greenhouse gasses when produced.
E.They can cause damage to sea life and the surrounding ecosystems.
F.Maintenance for the factories in moving saltwater is very expensive.
G.This makes electricity from wave energy a more reliable energy source.
