Environmentalist is one. A farmer in the city is another. He has started a group. It’s called Compost (堆肥) Power. “I’m a compost expert,” Morales said, “I’ve been composting for the past seven years.” Morales runs six composting sites in New York City. That’s his hometown. “In New York City, one-third of our waste is actually food waste,” he says. That garbage is put into landfills. But it could be composted. “Composting is taking our food waste and turning it into food for the soil,” Morales explains. Plants use nutrients (营养) to grow. They take these nutrients from the soil. Banana peels and apple cores can be composted. So can many other unnecessary foods. But never add meat, dairy, cheese, fats or oils, pet waste, or chemically treated food. These items either cause unpleasant smells or could contain harmful diseases or chemicals. The food cycle has to do with how food is produced, sold, and eaten. When food ends up in landfills, energy and nutrients are wasted. But with composting, the food cycle can be more sustainable (可持续的). Composting breaks down uneaten food. The nutrients in the compost help the soil. The soil is used to grow new fruits and vegetables. For Morales, composting is “a way to complete the cycle.” When people think of New York City, they might think of tall buildings and busy streets. But there are also rooftop farms and community gardens. And there are Morales’s composting sites. His task is to start even more of them. “We’re able to create a nice ecosystem right here,” he says. “Even on top of concrete, we can create soil.” 29．Why did Domingo Morales start “Compost Power” in New York City? A．Because New York City is his hometown. B．Because it is easier to find composting sites in New York City. C．Because New York City produces a large amount of food waste. D．Because climate in New York City is ideal for composting. 30．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following food can be used for composting? a. Banana peels and apple cores.    b. Milk and cheese waste. c. Vegetables waste.        d. Chicken and beef waste. A．ab B．cd C．ac D．bd 31．What is the best title of the passage? A．New York, an eco-friendly city B．Composting changes food waste C．How to complete the food cycle D．Composting for a sustainable New York City 32．According to Morales’s idea, which of the following food cycles is more sustainable? A． B． C． D． 【答案】29．C 30．C 31．D 32．A 【导语】本文一篇记叙文，主要讲述了环境主义者Domingo Morales在纽约市创办Compost Power组织，通过堆肥处理城市食物垃圾，促进可持续食物循环的故事。 29．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In New York City, one-third of our waste is actually food waste”（在纽约市，我们三分之一的垃圾实际上是食物垃圾）可知，Morales创办Compost Power的主要原因是因为纽约市产生了大量食物垃圾需要处理。故选C。 30．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Banana peels and apple cores can be composted”（香蕉皮和苹果核可以堆肥）和“So can many other unnecessary foods”（许多其他不需要的食物也可以）可知a和c正确；而该段明确提到“never add meat, dairy, cheese”（绝不能加入肉类、乳制品、奶酪），因此b和d不正确。故选C。 31．最佳标题题。全文围绕Morales在纽约市开展堆肥项目展开，重点讲述了堆肥对实现可持续城市发展的意义。根据文章最后一段“his task is to start even more of them”（他的任务是开办更多这样的堆肥点）和“we can create soil”（我们可以创造土壤）可知，文章主题是堆肥如何帮助纽约市实现可持续发展。故选D。 32．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“When food ends up in landfills...But with composting, the food cycle can be more sustainable”（当食物最终进入垃圾填埋场……但通过堆肥，食物循环可以更可持续）可知，Morales认为包含堆肥环节的食物循环最可持续的，将食物垃圾储存起来（而不是进入垃圾填埋场），再通过堆肥转化为土壤营养。选项A展示了这一循环过程。故选A。 C Eco-friendly Lifestyle in Denmark Denmark is one of the greenest countries in the world. People there are trying their best to make their country more beautiful. People in Denmark take recycling seriously. Newspapers are printed on recycled paper. Stores collect a deposit every time you buy a bottled drink. When you return the empty bottle, you get your deposit back. The bottle will be cleaned and reused. To reduce food waste, there is a food waste supermarket where people can buy the nearly-expired food at a low price. Even old clothes and shoes can be recycled. There are some organizations for recycling clothes. They collect old clothes from all over the country. Some of the clothes are sold in charity shops, some are given to the poor, and others are sent to factories for recycling. Cycling has always been a Danish tradition. The government encourages the use of bicycles instead of cars. There are good bicycle paths with road signs and traffic lights all over the country. In the capital city Copenhagen, there are over 2, 000 bicycles that can be borrowed for free in public squares and train stations. Don’t be surprised if you find fewer cars on road because cars are heavily taxed in Denmark. Denmark is starting to use energy from the sun, wind and water. For example, Denmark has been a wind energy leader for a long time. Nearly 42 percent of Denmark’s electricity is produced by wind power. These new types of energy cost very little and will never run out. Moreover, they produce little pollution. Denmark has set a good example for other countries. Remember that everyone can do something to make a difference. 33．The underlined word “deposit” means ________ in Chinese. A．押金 B．目录 C．利息 D．罚款 34．What do people in Denmark do to reduce food waste? A．They never buy food in the supermarket. B．They often buy food in a food waste supermarket. C．They often borrow food from others.

A．they enjoy cycling on the bike paths B．there are no good roads for cars C．the traffic is heavy everywhere D．it costs too much to own a car 36．How is the text organized? （①=Paragraph l, ②=Paragraph 2, ... ） A． B． C． D． 【答案】33．A 34．B 35．D 36．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了丹麦人所热衷的环境友好型生活方式。 33．词句猜测题。根据下文“When you return the empty bottle, you get your deposit back”可知，买瓶装饮料要交押金，然后归还瓶子的时候退回押金。故“deposit”此处有“押金”之意，故选A。 34．细节理解题。根据原文“To reduce food waste, there is a food waste supermarket where people can buy the nearly-expired food at a low price”可知，为了减少食物浪费，有一个浪费食品超市，在那里人们可以以低廉的价格买到即将过期的食物。故选B。 35．细节理解题。根据原文“Don’t be surprised if you find fewer cars on road because cars are heavily taxed in Denmark”可知，丹麦对汽车征重税，所以拥有一辆车花费很大。故选D。 36．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，文章为“总分总”结构，第一段和最后一段为总结段落，第二、三、四段为分述段落。故选A。 D Two 15-year-old boys cut a seed (种子) off a jatobá tree. The seed is the size of a small orange. Their classmates watch as the seed drops to the ground. These seeds will be used to transform old pastures (牧场) into forests, says Dayana Duarte. She is the education coordinator (协调人) at Iracambi (伊拉坎比) . This is an organization. It works to save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil.

Iracambi also has a project called Forest Therapies (森林疗法) . It educates people about local plants. It also helps local women use the plants to make money. Carla Mariana Faccina is the coordinator of Forest Therapies. She collects the leaves of the aroeira (阿罗埃拉) . The plant is used in Brazilian folk medicine. Faccina uses the leaves to create an oil. Women from the community can use it. They make natural lip balms (护唇膏) with the oil. Then, they can sell the lip balms. Changes within the community are already happening.

Their classmates watch as the seed drops to the ground.”可知，作者通过描述一个场景开始的这篇文章，故选D。 38．词句猜测题。根据“These seeds will be used to transform old pastures (牧场) into forests”可知，这些种子将被用来把旧的牧场改变为森林，因此可推断transform“改变”，故选B。 39．细节理解题。根据“It works to save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil.”可知，伊拉坎比的目的为了拯救巴西的大西洋森林，故选A。 40．推理判断题。根据“Changes within the community are already happening.

And we can do something about it,” she said. “If everyone just takes a moment to think twice when they see something on the ground, he or she will make a 65 (big) difference than me creating lots of art.” 56._______________ 57._______________ 58._______________ 59._______________ 60._______________ 61._______________ 62._______________ 63._______________ 64._______________ 65._______________ 【答案】 56．on 57．to protect 58．brought 59．pieces 60．has collected 61．exactly 62．uncomfortable 63．So 64．aren’t allowed 65．bigger 【导语】本文主要讲述了大学生艾米丽将环保行动转化为艺术创作——每天上学路上捡拾垃圾制成艺术品，用独特方式唤醒人们的环保意识的事情。 56．句意：为了创作艺术，她经常在上学的路上捡垃圾。根据空格后“her way to school”可知，此处应该填入介词on，意为“在……上”，指的是在她上学的路上。故填on。 57．句意：她希望她的作品能鼓励人们保护环境。根据空格前“encourage people”，结合所给词可知，此处考查：encourage sb to do sth，固定搭配，意为“鼓励某人做某事”，所以此处应该填入不定式to protect，作宾语补足语。故填to protect。 58．句意：然后她带了一个包，骑车去学校，边走边把它装满。根据“as she rode to school and filled it up as she went.”可知，时态为一般过去时，结合所给词可知，bring“带来”，动词原形，此处应该填入其过去式brought，作谓语。故填brought。 59．句意：她收集的只是一些较小的垃圾。根据“What she collected was only smaller…of rubbish.”，结合所给词可知，piece“碎片，部分”，可数名词，此处泛指一些较小的垃圾，所以应该填入其复数形式pieces。故填pieces。 60．句意：到目前为止，艾米丽已经收集了许多垃圾。根据句中“So far”可知，时态为现在完成时，且该句主语是Emily，结合所给词可知，此处应该填入has collected，作谓语。故填has collected。 61．句意：我完全了解她的感受。根据分析句子“I know…how she felt.”，结合所给词可知，exact“准确的，精确的”，形容词，此处应该填入其副词形式exactly，意为“完全地”，修饰动词know。故填exactly。 62．句意：艾米丽的垃圾项目让我感到不舒服，但这也是一个好主意。根据空格前“feel”可知，此处应该填入形容词，作表语；又根据“but it’s also a great idea.”，结合所给词可知，comfort“舒服”，名词，此处应该填入其形容词形式uncomfortable，形容词，意为“不舒服的”符合语境。故填uncomfortable。 63．句意：所以我支持。根据“Emily’s rubbish project makes me feel uncomfortable but it’s also a great idea.”和“…I support (支持).”可知，前后构成因果关系，前因后果，此处应该填入so，意为“所以”，表因果关系，位于句首，首字母要大写。故填So。 64．句意：我认为人们不被允许到处扔垃圾。根据语境可知，时态为一般现在时；又根据“people…throw rubbish everywhere.”，结合所给词可知，该句主语people与谓语动词allow之间是被动关系，此处考查一般现在时的被动语态，所以此处应该填入aren’t allowed，指的是人们不被允许到处扔垃圾。故填aren’t allowed。 65．句意：如果每个人在看到地面上的东西时都花一点时间三思，他或她将比我创造大量艺术产生更大的影响。根据空格后“difference than me creating lots of art.”可知，结合所给词可知，big“大的”，形容词，此处应该填入其比较级形式bigger，作定语，修饰名词difference。故填bigger。 七、任务型阅读 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) 根据短文内容在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词，每空一词。 Raden works in a library in Germany.

A farmer in the city is another. He has started a group. It’s called Compost (堆肥) Power. “I’m a compost expert,” Morales said, “I’ve been composting for the past seven years.” Morales runs six composting sites in New York City. That’s his hometown. “In New York City, one-third of our waste is actually food waste,” he says. That garbage is put into landfills. But it could be composted. “Composting is taking our food waste and turning it into food for the soil,” Morales explains. Plants use nutrients (营养) to grow. They take these nutrients from the soil. Banana peels and apple cores can be composted. So can many other unnecessary foods. But never add meat, dairy, cheese, fats or oils, pet waste, or chemically treated food. These items either cause unpleasant smells or could contain harmful diseases or chemicals. The food cycle has to do with how food is produced, sold, and eaten. When food ends up in landfills, energy and nutrients are wasted. But with composting, the food cycle can be more sustainable (可持续的). Composting breaks down uneaten food. The nutrients in the compost help the soil. The soil is used to grow new fruits and vegetables. For Morales, composting is “a way to complete the cycle.” When people think of New York City, they might think of tall buildings and busy streets. But there are also rooftop farms and community gardens. And there are Morales’s composting sites. His task is to start even more of them. “We’re able to create a nice ecosystem right here,” he says. “Even on top of concrete, we can create soil.” 29．Why did Domingo Morales start “Compost Power” in New York City? A．Because New York City is his hometown. B．Because it is easier to find composting sites in New York City. C．Because New York City produces a large amount of food waste. D．Because climate in New York City is ideal for composting. 30．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following food can be used for composting? a. Banana peels and apple cores.    b. Milk and cheese waste. c. Vegetables waste.        d. Chicken and beef waste. A．ab B．cd C．ac D．bd 31．What is the best title of the passage? A．New York, an eco-friendly city B．Composting changes food waste C．How to complete the food cycle D．Composting for a sustainable New York City 32．According to Morales’s idea, which of the following food cycles is more sustainable? A． B． C． D． C Eco-friendly Lifestyle in Denmark Denmark is one of the greenest countries in the world. People there are trying their best to make their country more beautiful. People in Denmark take recycling seriously. Newspapers are printed on recycled paper. Stores collect a deposit every time you buy a bottled drink. When you return the empty bottle, you get your deposit back. The bottle will be cleaned and reused. To reduce food waste, there is a food waste supermarket where people can buy the nearly-expired food at a low price. Even old clothes and shoes can be recycled. There are some organizations for recycling clothes. They collect old clothes from all over the country. Some of the clothes are sold in charity shops, some are given to the poor, and others are sent to factories for recycling. Cycling has always been a Danish tradition. The government encourages the use of bicycles instead of cars. There are good bicycle paths with road signs and traffic lights all over the country. In the capital city Copenhagen, there are over 2, 000 bicycles that can be borrowed for free in public squares and train stations. Don’t be surprised if you find fewer cars on road because cars are heavily taxed in Denmark. Denmark is starting to use energy from the sun, wind and water. For example, Denmark has been a wind energy leader for a long time. Nearly 42 percent of Denmark’s electricity is produced by wind power. These new types of energy cost very little and will never run out. Moreover, they produce little pollution. Denmark has set a good example for other countries. Remember that everyone can do something to make a difference. 33．The underlined word “deposit” means ________ in Chinese. A．押金 B．目录 C．利息 D．罚款 34．What do people in Denmark do to reduce food waste? A．They never buy food in the supermarket. B．They often buy food in a food waste supermarket. C．They often borrow food from others. D．They never waste any food. 35．People in Denmark seldom drive mainly because ________. A．they enjoy cycling on the bike paths B．there are no good roads for cars C．the traffic is heavy everywhere D．it costs too much to own a car 36．How is the text organized? （①=Paragraph l, ②=Paragraph 2, ... ） A． B． C． D． D Two 15-year-old boys cut a seed (种子) off a jatobá tree. The seed is the size of a small orange. Their classmates watch as the seed drops to the ground. These seeds will be used to transform old pastures (牧场) into forests, says Dayana Duarte. She is the education coordinator (协调人) at Iracambi (伊拉坎比) . This is an organization. It works to save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. Duarte helps train young people in Brazil to protect the environment. Iracambi has already planted 250, 000 trees. It aims to plant 1 million by 2030. The Atlantic Forest once stretched (延伸) down Brazil’s east coast (海岸) . Now, only a small part of it remains. Most of the trees have been cut down. The Atlantic Forest has the highest number of endangered species (物种) in Brazil. They are in danger of becoming extinct (灭绝的) . Iracambi is taking on the challenge of protecting the forest. It works on projects to restore (恢复) the trees. It educates people about the environment. It runs a volunteer program, too. One of Iracambi’s projects is the Eco-leader Program. It is for youth ages 5 to 15. The kids and teens can take classes about wildlife. They learn about the history and importance of the Atlantic Forest. Iracambi also has a project called Forest Therapies (森林疗法) . It educates people about local plants. It also helps local women use the plants to make money. Carla Mariana Faccina is the coordinator of Forest Therapies. She collects the leaves of the aroeira (阿罗埃拉) . The plant is used in Brazilian folk medicine. Faccina uses the leaves to create an oil. Women from the community can use it. They make natural lip balms (护唇膏) with the oil. Then, they can sell the lip balms. Changes within the community are already happening. This is mostly thanks to Iracambi. It has worked hard to save the Atlantic Forest. 37．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By making a list. B．By comparing facts. C．By asking a question. D．By describing a scene. 38．What does the underlined word “transform” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Develop. B．Change. C．Move. D．Choose. 39．What’s the purpose of Iracambi? A．To save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. B．To plant more trees along Brazil's east coast. C．To help local people uise plants to make money. D．To train young people in Brazil to protect the environment. 40．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Forest Therapies is a project for youth ages 5 to 15. B．Only a small part of the Atlantic Forest lost its trees. C．Iracambi has already made a difference to the community. D．Duarte and Faccina are both education coordinators at Iracambi. 四、单词拼写 (本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 41．We can c a beautiful painting with different colors. 42．Rose likes dogs so she doesn’t want people to k them for their meat (肉). 43．Don’t be n in the library.

There, many children are waiting to exchange books with old cups, bags and other useless things. When she arrives, the children gather around her three-wheeler, the “Litter Library”, and the books fly out quickly. Raden collects about 100 kg of waste each week.

A farmer in the city is another. He has started a group. It’s called Compost (堆肥) Power. “I’m a compost expert,” Morales said, “I’ve been composting for the past seven years.” Morales runs six composting sites in New York City. That’s his hometown. “In New York City, one-third of our waste is actually food waste,” he says. That garbage is put into landfills. But it could be composted. “Composting is taking our food waste and turning it into food for the soil,” Morales explains. Plants use nutrients (营养) to grow. They take these nutrients from the soil. Banana peels and apple cores can be composted. So can many other unnecessary foods. But never add meat, dairy, cheese, fats or oils, pet waste, or chemically treated food. These items either cause unpleasant smells or could contain harmful diseases or chemicals. The food cycle has to do with how food is produced, sold, and eaten. When food ends up in landfills, energy and nutrients are wasted. But with composting, the food cycle can be more sustainable (可持续的). Composting breaks down uneaten food. The nutrients in the compost help the soil. The soil is used to grow new fruits and vegetables. For Morales, composting is “a way to complete the cycle.” When people think of New York City, they might think of tall buildings and busy streets. But there are also rooftop farms and community gardens. And there are Morales’s composting sites. His task is to start even more of them. “We’re able to create a nice ecosystem right here,” he says. “Even on top of concrete, we can create soil.” 29．Why did Domingo Morales start “Compost Power” in New York City? A．Because New York City is his hometown. B．Because it is easier to find composting sites in New York City. C．Because New York City produces a large amount of food waste. D．Because climate in New York City is ideal for composting. 30．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following food can be used for composting? a. Banana peels and apple cores.    b. Milk and cheese waste. c. Vegetables waste.        d. Chicken and beef waste. A．ab B．cd C．ac D．bd 31．What is the best title of the passage? A．New York, an eco-friendly city B．Composting changes food waste C．How to complete the food cycle D．Composting for a sustainable New York City 32．According to Morales’s idea, which of the following food cycles is more sustainable? A． B． C． D． C Eco-friendly Lifestyle in Denmark Denmark is one of the greenest countries in the world. People there are trying their best to make their country more beautiful. People in Denmark take recycling seriously. Newspapers are printed on recycled paper. Stores collect a deposit every time you buy a bottled drink. When you return the empty bottle, you get your deposit back. The bottle will be cleaned and reused. To reduce food waste, there is a food waste supermarket where people can buy the nearly-expired food at a low price. Even old clothes and shoes can be recycled. There are some organizations for recycling clothes. They collect old clothes from all over the country. Some of the clothes are sold in charity shops, some are given to the poor, and others are sent to factories for recycling. Cycling has always been a Danish tradition. The government encourages the use of bicycles instead of cars. There are good bicycle paths with road signs and traffic lights all over the country. In the capital city Copenhagen, there are over 2, 000 bicycles that can be borrowed for free in public squares and train stations. Don’t be surprised if you find fewer cars on road because cars are heavily taxed in Denmark. Denmark is starting to use energy from the sun, wind and water. For example, Denmark has been a wind energy leader for a long time. Nearly 42 percent of Denmark’s electricity is produced by wind power. These new types of energy cost very little and will never run out. Moreover, they produce little pollution. Denmark has set a good example for other countries. Remember that everyone can do something to make a difference. 33．The underlined word “deposit” means ________ in Chinese. A．押金 B．目录 C．利息 D．罚款 34．What do people in Denmark do to reduce food waste? A．They never buy food in the supermarket. B．They often buy food in a food waste supermarket. C．They often borrow food from others. D．They never waste any food. 35．People in Denmark seldom drive mainly because ________. A．they enjoy cycling on the bike paths B．there are no good roads for cars C．the traffic is heavy everywhere D．it costs too much to own a car 36．How is the text organized? （①=Paragraph l, ②=Paragraph 2, ... ） A． B． C． D． D Two 15-year-old boys cut a seed (种子) off a jatobá tree. The seed is the size of a small orange. Their classmates watch as the seed drops to the ground. These seeds will be used to transform old pastures (牧场) into forests, says Dayana Duarte. She is the education coordinator (协调人) at Iracambi (伊拉坎比) . This is an organization. It works to save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. Duarte helps train young people in Brazil to protect the environment. Iracambi has already planted 250, 000 trees. It aims to plant 1 million by 2030. The Atlantic Forest once stretched (延伸) down Brazil’s east coast (海岸) . Now, only a small part of it remains. Most of the trees have been cut down. The Atlantic Forest has the highest number of endangered species (物种) in Brazil. They are in danger of becoming extinct (灭绝的) . Iracambi is taking on the challenge of protecting the forest. It works on projects to restore (恢复) the trees. It educates people about the environment. It runs a volunteer program, too. One of Iracambi’s projects is the Eco-leader Program. It is for youth ages 5 to 15. The kids and teens can take classes about wildlife. They learn about the history and importance of the Atlantic Forest. Iracambi also has a project called Forest Therapies (森林疗法) . It educates people about local plants. It also helps local women use the plants to make money. Carla Mariana Faccina is the coordinator of Forest Therapies. She collects the leaves of the aroeira (阿罗埃拉) . The plant is used in Brazilian folk medicine. Faccina uses the leaves to create an oil. Women from the community can use it. They make natural lip balms (护唇膏) with the oil. Then, they can sell the lip balms. Changes within the community are already happening. This is mostly thanks to Iracambi. It has worked hard to save the Atlantic Forest. 37．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By making a list. B．By comparing facts. C．By asking a question.

A．To save the Atlantic Forest in Brazil. B．To plant more trees along Brazil's east coast. C．To help local people uise plants to make money. D．To train young people in Brazil to protect the environment. 40．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Forest Therapies is a project for youth ages 5 to 15. B．Only a small part of the Atlantic Forest lost its trees. C．Iracambi has already made a difference to the community. D．Duarte and Faccina are both education coordinators at Iracambi. 四、单词拼写 (本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分) 41．We can c a beautiful painting with different colors. 42．Rose likes dogs so she doesn’t want people to k them for their meat (肉). 43．Don’t be n in the library.
