Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2024·南阳高二检测)Many owners of electric cars have wished for a battery pack that could power their vehicle for more than a thousand miles on a single charge.Researchers have developed a lithiumair battery that could make that dream a reality.The new battery design could also one day power airplanes and trucks.The main new component in this lithiumair battery is a solid electrolyte instead of the usual liquid variety.
Batteries with solid electrolytes are not subject to safety problems with the liquid electrolytes used in lithiumion and other battery types,which can overheat and catch fire.More importantly,the battery chemistry with the solid electrolyte can potentially boost the energy density by as much as four times above lithiumion batteries,which translates into longer driving range.
For over a decade,scientists have been working overtime to develop a lithium battery that makes use of the oxygen in air.The lithiumair battery has the highest energy density of any battery technology being considered for the next generation of batteries beyond lithiumion.
The new solid electrolyte is composed of a material made from relatively inexpensive elements,compared with the past designs.Besides,the chemical reaction in lithiumion only involves one or two electrons stored per oxygen molecule,while that for lithiumair battery involves four electrons.More electrons stored means higher energy density.
The new design is the first lithiumair battery that has achieved a fourelectron reaction at room temperature.It also operates with oxygen supplied by air from the surrounding environment.The capability to run with air avoids the need for oxygen tanks to operate,a problem with earlier designs.“With further development,we expect our new design for the lithiumair battery to reach a record of 1200 watthours per kilogram,” said Curtiss,a researcher.“That is nearly four times better than lithiumion batteries.”
1.What contributes most to the lithiumair battery?
A.Liquid component. B.Solid electrolytes.
C.Lithiumion. D.Oxygen molecules.
2.What's the problem with lithiumion batteries?
A.They burn easily if overheated.
B.They are unsafe in production.
C.They damage the environment.
D.They require longer charging time.
3.How does the author organize Paragraph 4?
A.By presenting statistics.
B.By giving examples.
C.By analyzing cause and effect.
D.By making comparisons.
4.What is the best title of the text?
A.Electric Cars Are Becoming More Popular
B.How LithiumAir Batteries Work
C.New Batteries Offer Longer Driving Range
D.What will Be Used to Power Airplanes

1.to [解析]考查介词。分析句子可知,此处考查固定短语,due to表示“由于”。故填to。
2.is [解析]考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,此处为谓语动词。结合上下文时态可知,此处应为一般现在时。主语The latest technological advancement为单数名词,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填is。
3.creations [解析]考查名词的数。分析句子可知,该句为并列谓语,此处为名词作宾语成分,由and连接的answers和things都为复数名词可知,此处也应为名词复数形式。故填creations。
4.whether [解析]考查宾语从句的引导词。分析句子可知,此处为whether“是否”引导的宾语从句,满足句意要求。故填whether。
5.depending [解析]考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,depend和逻辑主语it之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词形式。故填depending。
6.Given [解析]考查介词。分析句子可知,此处为介词Given表示“鉴于,考虑到”,符合句意。故填Given。
7.reality [解析]考查名词。由空前定冠词the可知,此处为名词形式作主句的主语。故填reality。
8.Actually [解析]考查副词。分析句子可知,此处为单个副词作状语,位于句首,修饰整个句子。句首首字母大写。故填Actually。
9.to learn [解析]考查非谓语动词。由空前名词ability可知,此处用动词不定式to do作后置定语修饰ability,ability to do“做某事的能力”为惯用表达。故填to learn。
10.that/which [解析]考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子可知,此处为关系代词that或者which引导的定语从句,先行词a form of Artificial Intelligence在从句中作主语成分。故填that/which。
