On October 26，Boyan Slat presented his solar­powered device “Interceptor” which removes plastic from rivers as it floats past. “We need to close the tap，which means preventing more plastic from reaching the ocean in the first place，”he said，calling rivers “the arteries(动脉) that carry the trash from land to sea”. Experts say 9 million tons of plastic waste，including plastic bottles，bags，and toys，flow annually into the ocean from rivers and streams，endangering life in the oceans. The machine has a shaped nose to block away larger floating waste like tree trunks.It works by guiding plastic waste into an opening in its bow，a conveyor belt(传送带) then carries the trash into the machine where it is dropped into waste containers.It sends a text message to local operators who can come and empty it when it's full. Three of the machines have already been put into practice in Indonesia，Malaysia and Vietnam.Malaysian government official Izham Hashim was present at the launch and said he was delighted to witness the project. “It has been used for 2 months in the river and it's doing very well，” Slat said.1，000 rivers are responsible for some 80 percent of plastic pouring into the world's oceans.“I want to settle them all in the next five years.This is not going to be easy，but imagine if we do get this done，” he told his enthusiastic supporters，“we'll truly make our oceans clean again.” Jan van Franeker of the Wageningen Marine Research Institute said the new machine looks promising.“They have finally moved toward the source of the litter，” he said in a telephone interview.“The design，from what I can see，is awesome.” 4．Why does the author quote Slat and experts' words in Paragraph 3? A．To stress the importance of rivers. B．To prove the severity of the pollution. C．To show their insight into the problem. D．To explain the background of the invention. 5．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The responsibility of the operator. B．The function of the conveyor belt. C．The working principle of the device. D．The critical role of the shaped nose. 6．Which of the following words best describe Slat? A．Ambitious and innovative. B．Optimistic and humorous. C．Confident and honest. D．Talented and proud. 7．What does Franeker think of the new machine? A．It takes time to improve. B．It has a bright future. C．Its design is disappointing. D．Its appearance is attractive. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一位年轻的荷兰发明家发明了一种海洋垃圾收集系统，它可以在塑料垃圾流入海洋之前将其捕获。 4．D　[解析]推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，Slat和专家表示每年有非常多的塑料垃圾流入海洋，作者引用他们的话是为了解释这一发明的背景。故选D。 5．C　[解析]主旨大意题。根据第四段内容可知，本段主要介绍了这一发明的工作原理。故选C。 6．A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第一段及第六段中的“I want to settle them all in the next five years.”可知，Boyan Slat发明新的装置拦截塑料垃圾，并期望五年内清理完所有垃圾，他是有创新能力和有雄心的。故选A。 7．B　[解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Jan van Franeker of the Wageningen Marine Research Institute said the new machine looks promising.”可知，Franeker觉得这台新机器有发展前景。故选B。 Ⅱ.完形填空 The sound of glass breaking is instantly recognizable.“Oh，no，not the vase！”Missi said __1__．“You're my best friend.If you had broken anything else in the apartment，I would have gladly said I did it.But you are going to have to tell my mom that it was your __2__ and she's going to be really mad.” I was __3__．I'd destroyed a priceless family heirloom(传家宝) while playing in Missi's house.

Death of an Empire is the second volume in MK Hume's “Merlin” series which details Merlin's life from birth.Merlin travels across the Roman Empire in search of his father，a voyage of discovery to understand just who he was.Eventually Merlin gets involved in the fight against the Hun's invasion(入侵) of Europe at the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains. Serving under the General Flavius Aetius，Merlin builds a reputation by saving the lives of thousands of soldiers.When he finally reaches Rome，he saves many more.But a far deadlier conflict between Emperor Valentinian and Senator Petronius Maximus is around the corner and Merlin must use all his strength to carry out his work. If I had to choose just one word to describe this novel，there would be no other choice than “immersive(身临其境的)”．There has clearly been a serious amount of research carried out by the author.Combined with the descriptive prose and imaginative story，the book really does attract you from almost the very start.The story really does feel like you are part of it as Merlin travels across the Roman Empire. The author does a great job of mixing the rich history with established Arthurian legend.The battle scene is handled very effectively.The author employs a very effective form to show the main fight and this not only adds a degree of tension and a good level of excitement but almost makes you feel like you are right there hearing about what happened. Death of an Empire is a very fine novel，a wonderfully rich tale and a rewarding story. 1．Why does Merlin travel across the Roman Empire? A．To visit King Arthur. B．To enjoy a nice view.

These structures are known as the Fujian Tulou.Throughout history，their residents have mostly been Hakka—migrants in southern China who originated from lands next to the Yellow River.Population pressures created conflicts between the Hakka and their neighbours，so they built their homes to double as fortification(防御) structures. Walls are up to 5 feet thick and can reach 60 feet high.Defensive features include iron gates，underground escape tunnels，tiled roofs，a water well，and a backup stock of grains and livestock in the event of a lengthy conflict.The buildings，usually three to four stories，are symmetrical(对称的) in their shapes—this means that in the event of a conflict there are no blind spots. While tulou translates as “earthen building”in Chinese，the construction materials are made up of far more than just mud.The foundations of the structures are made of local river stones and the walls are made of fine mud sourced from rice fields.The mud is reinforced(加固) with bamboo mixed with sand and lime，and then compacted(压实) with a thick stick. While similar in layout，each tulou is unique.The Yuchang Building，built in 1308，is the oldest and tallest and known for its tilted pillars，some of which lean at a sharp 15­degree angle.The Hegui Building is the largest rectangular(矩形的) one，covering an area of nearly 1，300 square metres.The Chengqi Building is the most massive in size，with about 400 rooms. Because of the economic draw of the neighbouring cities，there's been a great loss of residents over the last 25 years.Today the structures that once housed thousands of people are only home to a couple of dozen permanent residents，most of them elderly.In 2008，46 tulou were given World Heritage status by UNESCO.The growth of tourism in the area not only has kept the buildings from being destroyed，but also has promoted local businesses and allowed tulou to remain living and functional relics. 5．What's the original purpose of Hakka's building tulou? A．To live in harmony with nature. B．To make themselves more space to live. C．To protect them from being attacked. D.To attract visitors to appreciate the scenery. 6．What function do the symmetrical shapes of the buildings have? A．To keep the buildings balanced. B．To increase the space to live in. C．To make the buildings more attractive. D．To ensure they can attack enemies in all directions. 7．How many different tulou buildings are mentioned in Paragraph 5? A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Only one. 8．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.The traditional structures have perfect defensive systems. B.The tourism in the area benefits the structures significantly. C．All the permanent residents in the structures now are the elderly. D.The traditional structures are disappearing with economic development. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了福建土楼的特点、功能以及现状。 5．C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Population pressures created conflicts between the Hakka and their neighbours，so they built their homes to double as fortification structures.”可知，福建土楼最初的功能就是防御，即保护自己免受攻击。故选C。 6．D　[解析]细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The buildings，usually three to four stories，are symmetrical in their shapes—this means that in the event of a conflict there are no blind spots.”可知，福建土楼修建成这种形状是为了在战争中没有盲点，可以全方位攻击敌人。故选D。 7．A　[解析]细节理解题。根据第五段中的The Yuchang Building、The Hegui Building以及The Chengqi Building可知，本段提到了三种土楼。故选A。 8．B　[解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The growth of tourism in the area not only has kept the buildings from being destroyed ... and functional relics.”可知，旅游业对福建土楼有很大的益处。故选B。 Ⅱ.七选五阅读 It is so easy to just go home and shut your door without getting to know your neighbors.But being an active neighbor will turn your living place into a kinder and more caring neighborhood. 1．______．You don't have to show up with a fresh apple pie or anything like that.It's truly as simple as saying hello，introducing yourself and asking a few open­ended questions.But they are the first step to becoming a kind neighbor.

Ⅱ.读后续写 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I came to know this unique individual in a very simple way.One afternoon，in the little town where I then lived，I was walking my dog when he began to behave strangely，rolling wildly on the ground. While I was wondering what was the matter with him，I became aware that someone was walking by my side—a man of about 30，poorly dressed，collarless and hatless.A beggar，I thought，and was about to put my hand in my pocket.But the stranger smiled peacefully at me as though we were old friends.“He's got a tick(扁虱)，poor guy，” he said，pointing to my dog.“Come along.We'll have it out.” There was such warm friendliness in his eyes that I took no offense at his familiarity.I followed him to a park bench and sat down beside him. Strange to say，my Kaspar，who was usually wary(警惕的) of strangers，responded at once，and put his head on the man's knee.Searching the dog's coat with long and sensitive fingers，the stranger finally said “Aha！” and released Kaspar.“Here it is，” he laughed，holding something in the air.As the dog ran hurriedly，the stranger rose with a nod and walked on.His departure was so sudden that it did not occur to me until later that I should have thanked him. At home，still considering the man's strange behaviour，I reported the adventure to our old cook.“Oh，that was Anton，” she remarked.“He's got an eye for everything.” I asked what he did for a living.“Nothing，” she said，as if astonished by my question. “Well，” I said.“Everyone has to have something to live on.” “Not Anton，” she said.“Everyone is glad to give him whatever he wants.He doesn't care about money.He doesn't need it，either.” Well，this was strange. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1： I resolved to learn more about him.________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2： In later years I have often thought of Anton. ____________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ [参考范文] Paragraph 1： I resolved to learn more about him.Soon I discovered that our cook had been right: Anton had no settled job.He just wandered about the town all day long—apparently aimlessly，but with watchful eyes that observed everything.He would notice the wood in a fence，and call on the owner to suggest that it ought to be painted ...Usually he'd be asked to do the job—for everybody knew that there was no greed in his suggestions，but only sincere friendliness. Paragraph 2： In later years I have often thought of Anton.Few people have given me so much spiritual help.Frequently when I have been worrying about stupid little money matters，I have thought of this man who lived calmly and confidently for the day，because he just did what he could do for others.And always I have thought that if everyone were to learn this secret of trust and confidence，there would be no police，no courts of law，no prisons and no money. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
