Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·长沙月考)We are all aware of the damaging pollution that's created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油) vehicles.Many of the world's cities are jammed with traffic, creating poisonous gases such as nitrogen oxides.The solution for a cleaner, greener future could be electric vehicles.But how optimistic should we be?
There was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it will ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030.But is that easier said than done?The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off.Currently, battery life is an issue—a fully charged battery won't take you as far as a full tank of petrol.Here are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into.
Of course, technology is always improving.Some of the biggest tech companies,are spending huge amounts of money developing electric cars.And most of the big car manufacturers are now making them too.Colin Herron, a consultant on lowcarbon vehicle technology, told the BBC: “The big leap forward will come with solidstate batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress cars.These will charge more quickly, and give cars a bigger range.”
Cost is another issue that may deter people switching to electric power.But some countries offer encouraging measures, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking.Some also provide exclusive lanes for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams.These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1,000 inhabitants.
But Colin Herron warns that “electric motoring” doesn't mean a zerocarbon future.
1.What makes global traffic difficult to be totally electric according to the second paragraph?
A.A ban of the UK government.
B.Lack of petrol.
C.The small number of charging points.
D.A low battery quality.
2.According to Colin Herron, what can we learn?
A.Solidstate batteries will allow electric cars to travel farther.
B.Electric cars will indeed make for a zerocarbon future.
C.Solidstate batteries will be initially employed in electric cars.
D.Big progress has been made in laptops and mobile phones.
3.What does the underlined word “deter” mean in the fourth paragraph?
A.Block. B.Suggest.
C.Leave. D.Catch.
4.What will be most probably talked about next?
A.The huge potential of electric cars.
B.The unfavorable future of electric cars.
C.The eagerness for a zerocarbon future.
D.The reasons for not achieving a zerocarbon future.
Ⅱ.七选五
(2024·武汉上学期检测)
How to accept change in life and embrace it positively
Change is the only constant in life.__1__.Because whether we want it or not, change is inevitable.It is “change” that makes our life move forward.It's “change” that makes life exciting and worth living.Let's see how to stay strong when we face changes in life.
Accept the situation
Changes happen expectedly and unexpectedly.__2__.But there can be changes that happen so suddenly that you might have to experience painful days and have a tough time coping with them.Give yourself sometime to come to terms with it.You may have to go through a mourning period where you have to experience all kinds of emotions.Let the emotions come out and make space for them.It's normal to feel sad and a sense of loss when you think about your old life.Seek support and if possible, take a few days off to find your strength.It's important to learn to deal with the transition phase before you fully start living the new reality.
Embrace the unknown
Most of us are afraid of the unknown and therefore are resistant to change.__3__.Even if it is for good, we hesitate to accept change because human beings love structure and routine.But I have often experienced in my life that the “unknown” I feared so much was not that scary at all, once I went through it.And that my worries were something that my mind made up.Truth be told, most of the things I worried about didn't happen anyway.If we are not willing to embrace the unknown, we may miss out on lots of good things that life has kept in store for us.
__4__.
One of the reasons change is difficult to accept is because of the range of emotions we feel when we confront change.__5__.Acknowledge your fears, but stop yourself from being tunnelvisioned.Our mind has away of bringing up possible scenarios and fear them.But I have learned over the years that most of the things we fear don't happen and usually, something good comes from change.I recently learned how to embrace emotions from one of my spiritual teachers.She would say, “When you feel emotions, give them a name and acknowledge that they have come to ‘visit’.”
A.Acknowledge your fears
B.Look at how far you have come
C.The sooner we learn to make peace with this fact, the better
D.We fear the unknown because anything can happen to us there
E.Expected or planned changes can buy us sometime for preparation
F.It's important to embrace your feelings and accept that they are there
G.People who have experienced the loss of loved ones often talk about how that experience changed them

[知能演练]
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。英国曾于2020年宣布从2030年起禁止销售新的汽油和柴油汽车,这引起了人们的广泛关注。但是,说起来容易做起来难,全球汽车产业电动化还有很长的路要走。本文说明电动汽车存在的问题及可能的解决方案。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段倒数第二句“Currently, battery life is an issue—a fully charged battery won't take you as far as a full tank of petrol.Here are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into.(目前,电池寿命是一个问题——一个充满电的电池不能像一箱汽油那样带你走得远。这里可供电动汽车充电的充电站数量也有限。)”可知,充电点比较少是其中一个问题。故选C。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“The big leap forward will come with solidstate batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress cars.These will charge more quickly, and give cars a a bigger range.(固态电池将带来巨大的飞跃,它将首先出现在手机和笔记本电脑上,然后才会用在汽车上。充电速度更快,续航里程更大。)”可知,固体电池可以让车开得更远。故选A。
3.A 词句猜测题。根据第四段“But some countries offer encouraging measures, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking.(但一些国家提供了令人鼓舞的措施,例如通过降低进口税来降低价格,不收取道路税和停车费。)”可知,“But”前后为转折关系。其后为国家的鼓励措施,故可推知,其前应为电力车推广的阻碍因素。故“deter”词义应为“阻碍”。故选A。
4.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But Colin Herron warns that ‘electric motoring’ doesn't mean a zerocarbon future.(但科林·赫伦警告说,‘电动汽车’并不意味着零碳的未来。)”可推知,接下来的部分可能讨论不能实现零碳未来的原因。故选D。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何接受生活中的改变并积极地拥抱它。
1.C 上文“Change is the only constant in life.(改变是生活中唯一不变的。)”指出改变是生活中唯一不变的这一事实,下文“Because whether we want it or not, change is inevitable.(因为无论我们愿不愿意,改变都是不可避免的。)”中的because可知,空处应该和下文是因果关系,C项“我们越早学会接受这个事实越好”符合,“this fact”代指上文,故选C。
2.E 下文“But there can be changes that happen so suddenly that you might have to experience painful days and have a tough time coping with them.(但是有些变化可能发生得太突然,以至于你不得不经历痛苦的日子,并且很难应对它们)”中的But可知,空处和下文是转折关系,下文指出有些变化发生得太突然,以至于没有准备,E项“预期或计划的变化可以为我们争取一些时间来准备”和下文构成转折关系,选项中的“Expected or planned changes”和下文中的“changes that happen so suddenly”分别呼应上文“expectedly”和“unexpectedly”,故选E。
3.D 上文“Most of us are afraid of the unknown and therefore are resistant to change.(我们大多数人害怕未知,因此抵制改变。)”指出大多数人害怕未知,空处承接上文,指出害怕未知的原因,D项“我们害怕未知,因为在那里任何事情都可能发生在我们身上。”符合,下文“Even if it is for good, we hesitate to accept change because human beings love structure and routine (即使改变是好的,我们也不愿意接受,因为人类喜欢结构和常规)”进一步解释了人们害怕未知不愿改变的原因,故选D。
4.A 由下文“Acknowledge your fears, but stop yourself from being tunnelvisioned.Our mind has away of bringing up possible scenarios and fear them.(承认你的恐惧,但不要让自己看得太狭隘。我们的头脑已经远离了提出可能的情况和恐惧他们。)”可知,本段告诉我们要承认自己的恐惧,A项“承认你的恐惧。”适合做本段标题,故选A。
5.F 上文“One of the reasons change is difficult to accept is because of the range of emotions we feel when we confront change.(改变之所以难以接受,原因之一是当我们面对改变时所感受到的各种情绪。)”指出改变难以接受的原因是我们面对改变时有各种情绪,空处应该承接上文,告诉我们对此该如何做,F项“接受你的感受并接受它们的存在是很重要的。”符合,“your feelings”和上文“emotions”相呼应,故选F。
