Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via(通过) medical technology. Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics(统计) show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年) into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources(少的资源) we may well find technological substitutes(代用品)for many of them through our research programs. Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills, on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living. 1. According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of _______. A. higher quality of life B. medical technology C. modern farming machinery D. technological substitute 2. The three major factors of production include______ A. Land B. Labor C. Capital D. Above all 3. What is the best title for the passage? _______ A. The definition of technology B. Modern technology C. The application of technology D. The development of technology 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. B 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。短文主要介绍了现代科技在美国的重要作用。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“and has extended our life span via(通过) medical technology.”（并通过医疗技术延长了我们的寿命）由此可知，根据这篇文章，人们可以在医疗技术的帮助下长寿。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology.”（因此，归根结底，三大生产要素(土地、劳动力和资本)都受到技术的影响）由此可知，三大生产要素包括土地、劳动力和资本。故选D项。 【3题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Technology is the application(应用) of knowledge to production. Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets.”（技术是知识在生产中的应用。多亏了现代技术，我们才能大大提高劳动力的效率。对我们大多数美国人来说，现代科技被认为是我们能够拥有汽车和电视机的原因）由此可知，短文主要介绍了现代科技在美国的重要作用，所以短文的最佳标题为“现代技术”。故选B项。 B 82-year-old Gina Harris will become the oldest woman to cycle across Britain. From England, Gina plans to ride from Land’s End, in Cornwall, to John O’Groats, in Scotland, to support Women’s Aid and Refuge. The trip is hard, but Gina has set her mind to supporting the two charities after reading about the outstanding work they have done for women. This year’s International Women’s Day theme is Break the Bias (偏见). Knowing that isn’t enough, action is needed badly. Gina is taking action for women all over the world to show the importance of women. Gina shared, “I will ride my old bike and carry my luggage, which weighs over 30 kg. I won’t complete the challenge until June 2022, so I have 3 months to practice with my son’s great help. I have previously travelled by bicycle around Europe, so it won’t be my first long cycle journey, but it will certainly be my last one.” Gina Harris, a former photographer, took up cycling at 50 and joined the Cycling UK to follow her passion for charities. Alan Head, former Secretary of the Cycling UK commented, “Gina Harris has cycled with the Cycling UK for many years. We wish her all the best in her attempt to raise money for women by cycling. Because public services aren’t enough, the work of charities is important. ” Faye Connelly, Fundraising Manager at Women’s Aid, said, “We are grateful to Gina for her incredible support, and we expect more people to follow her example. Gina’s determination to raise as much as she can helps us reach more women and children.” 4. What made Gina determine to support the two charities? A. Her great talent. B. Her family’s support. C. Their long history. D. Their great work for women. 5. What is the son’s attitude to his mother’s plan? A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Disappointed. D. Critical. 6. Why did Gina join the Cycling UK in the beginning? A. To raise money for her son. B. To support charities. C. To improve her health. D. To realize her childhood dream. 7. What does Faye expect from Gina’s example? A. People will donate more money to the disabled. B. People will pay more attention to health. C. More people will be inspired to support the charity. D.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位八十多岁的老人为了慈善事业挑战骑行，穿越英国的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The trip is hard, but Gina has set her mind to supporting the two charities after reading about the outstanding work they have done for women.(这趟旅程很艰难，但在了解到这两家慈善机构为女性所做的杰出工作后，Gina下定决心支持它们)”可知，Gina是看了它们的事迹后决心参加这次活动的。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I won’t complete the challenge until June 2022, so I have 3 months to practice with my son’s great help.(我要到2022年6月才能完成挑战，所以我有3个月的时间在我儿子的帮助下练习)”可知，她儿子给了她非常多的帮助，即非常支持她。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Gina Harris, a former photographer, took up cycling at 50 and joined the Cycling UK to follow her passion for charities.(Gina Harris曾是一名摄影师，她在50岁时开始骑自行车，并加入了英国自行车协会，以追随她对慈善事业的热情)”可推断，Gina最初参加骑行俱乐部是为了支持慈善事业。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Faye Connelly, Fundraising Manager at Women’s Aid, said, “We are grateful to Gina for her incredible support, and we expect more people to follow her example. Gina’s determination to raise as much as she can helps us reach more women and children.”(妇女援助的筹款经理Faye Connelly说：“我们非常感谢Gina的支持，我们希望更多的人以她为榜样。Gina决心尽她所能地筹集资金，帮助我们接触到更多的妇女和儿童。”)”可知，Faye Connelly希望Gina能鼓舞更多人支持慈善事业。故选C。 C Many of the most damaging types of weather begin quickly, strike suddenly, and disappear rapidly, destroying small areas while leaving neighboring areas untouched. Such event as a tornado struck the northeastern part of Edmonton, Alberta, in July 1987. Total damages from the tornado went beyond $250 million, the highest ever for any Canadian storm. Traditional computer models of the atmosphere have limited value in predicting short-lived local storms like the Edmonton tornado, because the available weather data are generally not detailed enough to allow computers to study carefully the slight atmospheric changes that come before these storms. In most nations, for example, weather-balloon observations are taken just once every twelve hours at places separated by hundreds of miles. With such limited data, traditional forecasting models do a much better job predicting general weather conditions over large areas than they do forecasting specific local events. Until recently, the observation intensive method needed for exact, very short-range forecasts, or “Nowcasts,” was not possible. The cost of equipping and operating many thousands of conventional weather stations was extremely high, and the difficulties concerned in rapidly collecting and processing the weather data from such a network were hard to overcome. Fortunately, scientific and technological advances have overcome most of these problems. Radar systems and satellites are all able to make detailed, nearly continuous observation over large areas at a lower cost. Communications satellites can send out data around the world cheaply and immediately, and modern computers can quickly collect and analyze this large amount of weather information. Meteorologists(气象学者) and computer scientists now work together to design computer programs and video equipment able to change weather data into words and graphic displays that forecasters can understand easily and quickly. As meteorologists have begun using these new technologies in weather forecasting offices, Nowcasting is becoming a reality. 8. Why can’t traditional computer models predict short-lived local storms? A. The weather data people collect are often wrong. B. Detailed weather data in some small areas are not available. C. The computers are not advanced enough to predict them. D. The computers are not used to forecast specific local events. 9. The word “Nowcast” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. a network to collect storm data B. a way of collecting weather data C. a more advanced system of weather observation D. a forecast which can predict weather in the small area 10. What can make “Nowcasts” a reality according to the passage? A Scientific and technological advances. B. Advanced computer programs. C. Computer scientists. D. Meteorologists. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The advantages of “Nowcasts”. B. A tornado in Edmonton, Alberta. C. The difficulty in predicting tornado. D. A great development in weather forecast. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要分析了无法预测自然灾害的原因和我们现已克服的困难，并且对未来能够轻松快速地预测天气系统抱有希望。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Traditional computer models of the atmosphere have limited value in predicting short-lived local storms like the Edmonton tornado, because the available weather data are generally not detailed enough to allow computers to study carefully the slight atmospheric changes that come before these storms.(传统的大气计算机模型在预测像埃德蒙顿龙卷风这样的短期局部风暴方面价值有限，因为现有的天气数据通常不够详细，无法让计算机仔细研究风暴前的轻微大气变化。)” 可知，传统的计算机模型不能预测短期的局部风暴是因为一些小地区的天气数据不够详细。故选B项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“Until recently, the observation intensive method needed for exact, very short-range forecasts, or “Nowcasts,” was not possible.(直到最近，精确的、非常短期的预测（即“nowcast” ）所需的密集观测方法都是不可能的。”可知，“Nowcasts”指的是精确到、快速实时的预报方法。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Fortunately, scientific and technological advances have overcome most of these problems.(幸运的是，科学和技术的进步已经克服了这些问题中的大多数。) ”可知，想要克服艰难险阻让“Nowcasts”成为现实，还得靠科学和技术的进步。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段至第三段主要讲了我们为什么很难预测具有破坏性的天气类型以及探索途中遇到的困难，后两段转折，为全文重点，讲述了我们现在已经克服了这些困难，并且能够做出哪些预测和成就，并对未来更轻松、快速地预测天气保佑希望。由此可知，文章主要讲述了在预测天气方面我们的进步和发展。故选D项。 D In a world where the news frequently warns of approaching fresh water scarcity, a group of forward-thinking researchers are looking to the skies to find a solution. Dr. Michael Tam, a distinguished professor at the University of Waterloo, along with his brilliant students, Yi Wang and Weinan Zhao, is diving deep into nature’s playbook. “Water is efficiently captured by the web. The spider doesn’t need to go to the river to drink, as it traps moisture (水分) from the air,” Dr. Tam said. This revelation led to the exploration of how such natural phenomena could be replicated (复制) to address the global challenge of fresh water scarcity. Furthermore, the Namib Desert beetle showcases another masterclass in nature’s engineering. Despite living in one of the dry environments on the Earth, these beetles manage to obtain water from thin air. A textured body surface that captures water droplets from fog when they face into the wind. The collected moisture then accumulates and drips right into their mouths. Tapping into the lessons offered by these natural wonders, Dr. Tam and his team are working one particularly promising technology termed “atmospheric water harvesting.” To replicate the beetle’s water-gathering method, Tam’s team is developing a special surface that attracts small water droplets and quickly releases bigger ones. But that’s not all. Dr Tam’s commitment to sustainability shines through in his choice of materials. Using zero-carbon materials, like plant-based substances, his team has developed an energy-efficient surface that captures atmospheric moisture. The team’s innovations don’t stop there. Drawing inspiration from unique mushroom structures, they’ve designed smart structural systems for solar evaporation(蒸发). These systems effectively use solar energy, absorbing water and transforming it into fresh, collectible steam. The potential impact of these fresh water generation systems is enormous. Not only are they cost-effective and energy-efficient, but they also represent the essence of environmental friendliness. In a world increasingly bothered by water scarcity, the work of Dr. Tam and his team offers a ray of hope. By looking to nature’s wonderful solutions, we’re reminded that sometimes, the answers to our most pressing challenges have been right in front of us all along. 12. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “revelation” in paragraph 2? A. Challenge. B. Discovery. C. Curiosity. D. Definition. 13. Why can the Namib Desert beetles harvest water in deserts? A. Because of their unique body structure. B. Because of their skills of weaving webs. C. Because of complex weather conditions. D Because of their organ for storing water. 14. On what basis do the team conduct their innovative work? A. How materials are chosen. B. How nature repairs itself. C. How solar energy is used. D. How nature captures water. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards the solutions to water scarcity? A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Dismissive. D. Confident. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。面对淡水短缺问题，谭博士团队受蜘蛛、甲虫等自然现象启发，研发大气集水等技术，为解决难题带来希望 。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“‘Water is efficiently captured by the web. The spider doesn’t need to go to the river to drink, as it traps moisture (水分) from the air,’ Dr. Tam said. This revelation led to the exploration of how such natural phenomena could be replicated (复制) to address the global challenge of fresh water scarcity. (‘水被蜘蛛网有效地捕获。蜘蛛不需要去河边喝水，因为它能从空气中捕获水分，’谭博士说。这一______引发了对如何复制这种自然现象以应对全球淡水短缺挑战的探索。)”可知，谭博士发现了蜘蛛能从空气中捕获水分这一现象，然后才有了后面的探索，所以revelation意思应该是“发现”的意思。只有B选项Discovery符合语境，所以revelation意思与Discovery最接近。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Furthermore, the Namib Desert beetle showcases another masterclass in nature’s engineering. Despite living in one of the dry environments on the Earth, these beetles manage to obtain water from thin air. A textured body surface that captures water droplets from fog when they face into the wind. The collected moisture then accumulates and drips right into their mouths. (此外，纳米比亚沙漠甲虫展示了自然界工程学的另一个典范。尽管生活在地球上最干燥的环境之一，但这些甲虫能够从稀薄的空气中获取水分。当它们迎风时，有纹理的身体表面能从雾中捕获水滴。收集到的水分随后会积累起来，直接滴进它们的嘴里。)”可知，纳米比亚沙漠甲虫能在沙漠中收集水是因为它们独特的身体结构，即有纹理的身体表面能捕获水滴。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中蜘蛛从空气中捕获水分，第三段中纳米比亚沙漠甲虫从空气中获取水分，以及第四段“Tapping into the lessons offered by these natural wonders, Dr. Tam and his team are working one particularly promising technology termed ‘atmospheric water harvesting.’ To replicate the beetle’s water-gathering method, Tam’s team is developing a special surface that attracts small water droplets and quickly releases bigger ones. (借鉴这些自然奇观所提供的经验教训，谭博士和他的团队正在研究一种特别有前景的技术，称为‘大气集水’。为了复制甲虫的集水方法，谭博士的团队正在开发一种特殊的表面，它能吸引小水滴并迅速释放大水滴。)”可知，团队的创新工作是基于自然界是如何捕获水的。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In a world increasingly bothered by water scarcity, the work of Dr. Tam and his team offers a ray of hope. By looking to nature’s wonderful solutions, we’re reminded that sometimes, the answers to our most pressing challenges have been right in front of us all along. (在一个日益受到水资源短缺困扰的世界里，谭博士和他的团队的工作带来了一线希望。通过借鉴自然界奇妙的解决方案，我们被提醒，有时，我们最紧迫挑战的答案一直就在我们眼前。)”可知，作者认为谭博士团队的工作给解决水资源短缺问题带来了希望，并且认可从自然界寻找解决方案的方式，所以作者对解决水资源短缺的方案是有信心的。故选D。 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入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Lots of students are unsure about a variety of factors when they consider which college might represent a good fit for them, but they believe they know exactly what they want when it comes to college size. ___16___. Here are a few of the less-obvious reasons a smaller school might be a good fit: 1. The professors actually do the teaching. Most small colleges only teach undergraduate degrees.______17______, and more importantly, graduate students won’t be teaching any of your classes. 2. More focused and direct feedback (反馈). You’ve heard the expression “You’re just a number.” Think about the homework and tests that need to be graded in a class with 450 students. ______18______. But at small schools, class sizes are smaller, and professors will have more time to read a student’s work. 3. Research chances. Students at small schools are able to develop relationships with professors more easily, since there is a smaller number of students. ______19______. 4. Less red tape. It’s just easier to get things done at a small school. ______20______, and there are fewer regulations. One of the biggest frustrations (令人沮丧的事物) at large schools is that important classes become full quickly, forcing students to either take them over the summer or stay an extra term. A. Small colleges may offer more sports activities B. Professors and administrators have more flexibility C. That means there aren’t graduate students on campus D. The size of a school really can change your experience E. It’s great to see students make a 180-degree turn after they visit some small colleges F. Teachers there don’t have much time to offer advice on every student’s piece of work G. Most professors know their students’ names and count on them to take part in their research 【答案】16. E 17. C 18. F 19. G 20. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍小规模学校可能更适合学生的一些原因。 【16题详解】 由空格后一句“Here are a few of the less-obvious reasons a smaller school might be a good fit”可知，这里是一些小规模学校可能更适合学生的不太明显的原因。选项E表达的是“当他们参观完一些小规模的学院之后，很开心看见学生180度的转变”，由此可知，学生是看到了小规模学院存在的优势，才会做出转变，和后一句表达的小规模学校更适合学生的原因相呼应。故选E。 【17题详解】 由本句的后半部分“and more importantly, graduate students won’t be teaching any of your classes.”可知，更重要的是，研究生将不会给你教授任何课程。本句提及的对象是研究生。选项C表示的是“那意味着校园里没有研究生”，和后半部分研究生不上课相呼应。故选C。 【18题详解】 由前二句“You’ve heard the expression “You’re just a number.””和“Think about the homework and tests that need to be graded in a class with 450 students.”可知，你听说过这样的表达“你只是一个数字”，想想那些在一个有450名学生的班级里需要被评分的作业和试卷。这两句都是在表达学生太多，作业试卷只有分数，没有更多的建议。选项F“那里的老师没有太多的时间给每一位学生的作业提供意见”，符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 由前一句“Students at small schools are able to develop relationships with professors more easily, since there is a smaller number of students.”可知，由于学生人数比较少，在小规模学校的学生能更容易地和教授建立关系。本句提及的对象是教授和学生之间的关系。选项G表达的是“大部分的教授知道学生的名字并且指望他们参加研究”，也是在提及教授和学生之间的关系，是对前一句的具体说明，符合语境。故选G。 【20题详解】 由本句的后半部分“and there are fewer regulations.”可知，后半部分提及的是有更少的规则。选项B表示的是“教授和行政管理者有更多的灵活性”，和后半部分的更少的规则相呼应，切题。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Being close to nature was like food for my soul.

A sudden burning stomachache started, but she hoped her students wouldn’t notice. “You look pale, Mrs Parks. Are you all right?” a kid, Tony, asked. Mrs Parks started nodding, trying to explain everything was all right. But the words wouldn’t come out. She became unconscious and fell down in front of her class, and there were red and blue lights, many adults, and the sounds of children crying. “Will she be OK?” Mrs Parks heard a high voice but couldn’t recognize who had said it. “Everything will be fine,” she whispered, but an ambulance worker quieted her and put an oxygen mask on her. “Tony, please. We’ll see what we can do for Mrs Parks. All of you have to go back to class and listen to whatever Ms Hanson tells you,” Mr Roberts, the headmaster, tried to demand Mrs Parks’ students leave his office, but they wouldn’t move. Tony and Hannah were at the front of the pack. They were told she needed surgery, and hospitals cost money. “We need to raise money. Please help us, Mr Roberts,” Hannah said, and all the kids nodded. “Kids, let’s go back to the classroom and brainstorm together about helping Mrs Parks,” Ms Hanson guided them back to the classroom. Ms Hanson instructed them to write special messages to her. “A card is not enough to save Mrs Parks. She has to come back. She’s the best teacher ever. We need a grown-up to help.” Tony told his classmates during the break. All the kids were thinking hard, and suddenly, Asher spoke up, “My big sister is a senior in high school.

Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via(通过) medical technology. Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics(统计) show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年) into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources(少的资源) we may well find technological substitutes(代用品)for many of them through our research programs. Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills, on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living. 1. According to the passage, people can live a long life with the help of _______. A. higher quality of life B. medical technology C. modern farming machinery D. technological substitute 2. The three major factors of production include______ A. Land B. Labor C Capital D. Above all 3. What is the best title for the passage? _______ A. The definition of technology B. Modern technology C. The application of technology D. The development of technology B 82-year-old Gina Harris will become the oldest woman to cycle across Britain. From England, Gina plans to ride from Land’s End, in Cornwall, to John O’Groats, in Scotland, to support Women’s Aid and Refuge. The trip is hard, but Gina has set her mind to supporting the two charities after reading about the outstanding work they have done for women. This year’s International Women’s Day theme is Break the Bias (偏见). Knowing that isn’t enough, action is needed badly. Gina is taking action for women all over the world to show the importance of women. Gina shared, “I will ride my old bike and carry my luggage, which weighs over 30 kg. I won’t complete the challenge until June 2022, so I have 3 months to practice with my son’s great help. I have previously travelled by bicycle around Europe, so it won’t be my first long cycle journey, but it will certainly be my last one.” Gina Harris, a former photographer, took up cycling at 50 and joined the Cycling UK to follow her passion for charities. Alan Head, former Secretary of the Cycling UK commented, “Gina Harris has cycled with the Cycling UK for many years. We wish her all the best in her attempt to raise money for women by cycling. Because public services aren’t enough, the work of charities is important. ” Faye Connelly, Fundraising Manager at Women’s Aid, said, “We are grateful to Gina for her incredible support, and we expect more people to follow her example. Gina’s determination to raise as much as she can helps us reach more women and children.” 4. What made Gina determine to support the two charities? A. Her great talent. B. Her family’s support. C. Their long history. D. Their great work for women. 5. What is the son’s attitude to his mother’s plan? A. Cautious. B. Favorable. C. Disappointed. D. Critical. 6. Why did Gina join the Cycling UK in the beginning? A. To raise money for her son. B. To support charities. C. To improve her health. D. To realize her childhood dream. 7. What does Faye expect from Gina’s example? A. People will donate more money to the disabled. B. People will pay more attention to health. C. More people will be inspired to support the charity. D. More people will like cycling. C Many of the most damaging types of weather begin quickly, strike suddenly, and disappear rapidly, destroying small areas while leaving neighboring areas untouched. Such event as a tornado struck the northeastern part of Edmonton, Alberta, in July 1987. Total damages from the tornado went beyond $250 million, the highest ever for any Canadian storm. Traditional computer models of the atmosphere have limited value in predicting short-lived local storms like the Edmonton tornado, because the available weather data are generally not detailed enough to allow computers to study carefully the slight atmospheric changes that come before these storms. In most nations, for example, weather-balloon observations are taken just once every twelve hours at places separated by hundreds of miles. With such limited data, traditional forecasting models do a much better job predicting general weather conditions over large areas than they do forecasting specific local events. Until recently, the observation intensive method needed for exact, very short-range forecasts, or “Nowcasts,” was not possible. The cost of equipping and operating many thousands of conventional weather stations was extremely high, and the difficulties concerned in rapidly collecting and processing the weather data from such a network were hard to overcome. Fortunately, scientific and technological advances have overcome most of these problems. Radar systems and satellites are all able to make detailed, nearly continuous observation over large areas at a lower cost. Communications satellites can send out data around the world cheaply and immediately, and modern computers can quickly collect and analyze this large amount of weather information. Meteorologists(气象学者) and computer scientists now work together to design computer programs and video equipment able to change weather data into words and graphic displays that forecasters can understand easily and quickly. As meteorologists have begun using these new technologies in weather forecasting offices, Nowcasting is becoming a reality. 8. Why can’t traditional computer models predict short-lived local storms? A. The weather data people collect are often wrong. B. Detailed weather data in some small areas are not available. C The computers are not advanced enough to predict them. D. The computers are not used to forecast specific local events. 9 The word “Nowcast” in Paragraph 3 means ________. A. a network to collect storm data B. a way of collecting weather data C. a more advanced system of weather observation D. a forecast which can predict weather in the small area 10. What can make “Nowcasts” a reality according to the passage? A. Scientific and technological advances. B. Advanced computer programs. C. Computer scientists. D. Meteorologists. 11. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The advantages of “Nowcasts”. B. A tornado in Edmonton, Alberta. C. The difficulty in predicting tornado. D. A great development in weather forecast. D In a world where the news frequently warns of approaching fresh water scarcity, a group of forward-thinking researchers are looking to the skies to find a solution. Dr. Michael Tam, a distinguished professor at the University of Waterloo, along with his brilliant students, Yi Wang and Weinan Zhao, is diving deep into nature’s playbook. “Water is efficiently captured by the web. The spider doesn’t need to go to the river to drink, as it traps moisture (水分) from the air,” Dr. Tam said. This revelation led to the exploration of how such natural phenomena could be replicated (复制) to address the global challenge of fresh water scarcity. Furthermore, the Namib Desert beetle showcases another masterclass in nature’s engineering. Despite living in one of the dry environments on the Earth, these beetles manage to obtain water from thin air. A textured body surface that captures water droplets from fog when they face into the wind. The collected moisture then accumulates and drips right into their mouths. Tapping into the lessons offered by these natural wonders, Dr. Tam and his team are working one particularly promising technology termed “atmospheric water harvesting.” To replicate the beetle’s water-gathering method, Tam’s team is developing a special surface that attracts small water droplets and quickly releases bigger ones. But that’s not all. Dr Tam’s commitment to sustainability shines through in his choice of materials. Using zero-carbon materials, like plant-based substances, his team has developed an energy-efficient surface that captures atmospheric moisture. The team’s innovations don’t stop there. Drawing inspiration from unique mushroom structures, they’ve designed smart structural systems for solar evaporation(蒸发). These systems effectively use solar energy, absorbing water and transforming it into fresh, collectible steam. The potential impact of these fresh water generation systems is enormous. Not only are they cost-effective and energy-efficient, but they also represent the essence of environmental friendliness. In a world increasingly bothered by water scarcity, the work of Dr. Tam and his team offers a ray of hope. By looking to nature’s wonderful solutions, we’re reminded that sometimes, the answers to our most pressing challenges have been right in front of us all along. 12. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “revelation” in paragraph 2? A. Challenge. B. Discovery. C. Curiosity. D. Definition. 13. Why can the Namib Desert beetles harvest water in deserts? A. Because of their unique body structure. B. Because of their skills of weaving webs. C. Because of complex weather conditions. D. Because of their organ for storing water. 14. On what basis do the team conduct their innovative work? A. How materials are chosen. B. How nature repairs itself. C. How solar energy is used. D. How nature captures water. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards the solutions to water scarcity? A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Dismissive. D. Confident. 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入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Lots of students are unsure about a variety of factors when they consider which college might represent a good fit for them, but they believe they know exactly what they want when it comes to college size. ___16___.
