A
Montreal has a unique culture, with its mixture of French and English. If you want to visit one of the best cities in North America, this is the place for you.
The French
Most places in Canada are English-speaking, but Montreal is different. It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French. The French and the English generally stay apart from each other. Most of the English can’t speak French and don’t want to learn; most of the French don’t like to speak English. However, it is this “conflict” of cultures that makes Montreal interesting.
Food
The best and unique Canadian food comes from the French. For example, you can find “poutine” — a tasty quick snack. This French invention is my personal favorite, although I must warn you that it isn’t for everyone. The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts (度假胜地). Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine. You will understand why it’s the best food in the world.
Music & Cinema
Montreal is also great for music. There’s a famous jazz festival in the summer. You need a pass for most of the shows, which are usually performed outdoors during the day and night. But wherever you are in Montreal, you can hear the music while you are walking in the streets.
1. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A science report. B. A travel brochure.
C. An entertainment magazine. D. A textbook.
2. When will you enjoy poutine the most?
A. After a day-long sightseeing. B. When you have a hot chocolate.
C. After a tiring skiing experience. D. After watching shows performed outdoors.
3. What is necessary if you intend to make a living in Montreal?
A. Mastering skiing skills. B. Favoring different cultures.
C. Understanding jazz music. D. Communicating in French.
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. D
【解析】

细节理解题。根据Food部分中“The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts. Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine.(体验奶酪薯条的最佳方式是去蒙特利尔北部的滑雪胜地之一。花一整天时间滑雪。然后,当你浑身酸痛时,和朋友一起去山上的酒吧,喝一杯热巧克力,吃一盘奶酪薯条)”可知,在经历了一天的滑雪后,享用奶酪薯条是最美味的。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据The French部分中“Most places in Canada are English-speaking, but Montreal is different. It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French.(加拿大的大多数地方都说英语,但蒙特利尔不同。这是一座由法国人管理、为法国人服务的城市。如果你想在那里工作,你必须说法语)”可知,如果你想在蒙特利尔谋生,必须会说法语。故选D项。
B
Hello everyone! Meet my new friend Marco. He says Ciao! This means hello in his language. Marco travelled with me this month. When he showed me his country on the map, I was attracted by its shape. It looks like a high-heeled boot (高跟靴) in the Mediterranean Sea that’s kicking a strange-shaped ball. Can you find the name of this ball on the world map?
Marco told me that he loves cars and that his country is well-known for super-fast cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati. Isn’t it cool? The people also love soccer here. They call it “Calcio.” He told me that they have won four World Cups. The most recent win was in 2006! When he shared this with me, he was very excited and full of pride
We visited the country’s capital and I was amazed to find that it was more than 2500 years old! We walked around and soon it was time for dinner. Marco told me that people there eat pasta (意大利面食) at least once a day. The different sauces and toppings (酱汁和佐料) mean they never get bored of it. Also, they love including seasonal vegetables in their dinners. I couldn’t wait to enjoy the pizza and pasta with different toppings and sauces. The cappuccino and focaccia bread also made me happy. It’s no wonder that the world has adopted so much of their food! The people in this country celebrate many holidays and enjoy eating big meals with their family. The festive atmosphere makes everyone happy.
I was lucky to travel to this country in March and enjoy the Bologna Children’s Book Fair. It is held for four days every year. We also visited the Colosseum, Pantheon, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which was really wonderful! Before I said goodbye to Marco, I made a promise to visit again. Can you guess the name of this country?

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The people also love soccer here. They call it “Calcio.” He told me that they have won four World Cups. The most recent win was in 2006!

Everglades National Park (大沼泽地国家公园) is located in the state of Florida. It is the largest wilderness in the entire country and makes up 25% of the wetlands in the state. The park is home to several rare and endangered species. It is also the third largest national park in the US, after Death Valley and Yellowstone. Each year, about 1 million tourists visit the park. On a global level, it has been announced as a World Heritage Site.
Unlike most other national parks, Everglades National Park was created to protect an ecosystem (生态系统) from damage. In 1947, President Harry Truman spoke at the official opening of Everglades National Park, saying the goal of creating the park was to protect forever a wild area that could never be replaced.
10,000 different islands make up Everglades National Park. Each of these islands is lived by natural wildlife. The Everglades is home to about 15 species that are endangered. In addition, more than 350 bird species and 300 species of fresh and saltwater fish live within the park. The Everglades is also home to 40 species of mammals and 50 reptile species.
There are many ways to explore the Everglades. Visitors can see alligators (短吻鳄) while hiking the Anhinga Trail. The Everglades is one of the only places on Earth where freshwater alligators and saltwater crocodiles live in the same area. Visitors using airboats are likely to see large groups of birds. Some visitors might enjoy riding bicycles through Shark Valley. Others may want to move slowly through waters where they can see insects and wildlife closely.
According to experts, changes to the Everglades are becoming a danger to several different kinds of wildlife. They say it is a result of actions the US government began more than 50 years ago, and settlers began even earlier.
8. In the first paragraph, we’re mainly told that ________.
A Florida is famous for its wetlands B. the US has three important national parks
C. Everglades National Park is of great value D. Everglades National Park is popular with visitors
9. How does the author describe the richness of wildness in the park?

D
Building large-scale (大规模的) wind and solar power plants (发电厂) doesn’t just have the power to provide the world with a huge amount of energy; it has the power to actually change the climate for the better. A new climate-modeling study has found that wind and solar power plants throughout the Sahara Desert (撒哈拉大沙漠) could increase rainfall across the area and benefit plants’ growth.
When it comes to the Sahara Desert, here come the opinions of the researchers. For one, there’s plenty of sunlight and plenty of wind over the sandy areas. It’s also close to Europe and the Middle East, which need great amounts of energy. What’s more, wind and solar power plants that cover about 9 million kilometers of the desert could provide about 3 terawatts (太瓦) and 79 terawatts of electricity separately. That would meet global energy needs several times over.
The researchers also tried to find out how such large power plants would affect the area’s climate and plants. It was found that temperatures would increase — which might sound difficult to understand in the desert — but this would also raise the amount of water in the air and double the amount of rainfall. That’s a fair trade, as this place could become green with even a little increase in rainfall.
“We found that the large-scale solar and wind power plants can bring more rainfall and help with plants’ growth in these areas. It’s great to think that instead of burning coal or oil and creating disastrous climate change, we could use clean energy to produce positive climate change and change a desert into a beautiful place with water and trees,” explained Eugenia Kalnay, a researcher of the study.
12. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. How people affect the Sahara Desert.
B. Why we need large-scale power plants.
C. How power plants can be helpful to the surroundings.
D. Why the Sahara Desert is perfect for building power plants.
13. What will happen to the desert according to the study?
A. It will become colder.
B. It will attract more tourists.
C. The temperature will be higher there.
D. The trade there will increase greatly.
14. How does Eugenia Kalnay comment on building large-scale wind and solar power plants in the Sahara Desert?
A. It is a win-win chance.
B. It needs to be studied further.
C. It will face greater difficulties.
D. It will be achieved within decades.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Wind and solar power plants produce clean energy
B. Power plants could bring rains to the Sahara Desert
C. The Sahara Desert may disappear after a new project
D. The world will need more electricity in the future
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是一项新的气候模拟研究发现,整个撒哈拉沙漠的风能和太阳能发电厂可以增加该地区的降雨量,有利于植物的生长。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段的“For one, there’s plenty of sunlight and plenty of wind over the sandy areas. It’s also close to Europe and the Middle East, which need great amounts of energy. What’s more, wind and solar power plants that cover about 9 million kilometers of the desert could provide about 3 terawatts (太瓦) and 79 terawatts of electricity separately. That would meet global energy needs several times over. (首先,沙质地区有充足的阳光和充足的风。它也靠近需要大量能源的欧洲和中东。此外,覆盖约900万公里沙漠的风能和太阳能发电厂可以分别提供约3太瓦和79太瓦的电力。这将满足全球能源需求的数倍。)”可知,第二段主要讲的是为什么撒哈拉沙漠是建造发电厂的理想之地。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The researchers also tried to find out how such large power plants would affect the area’s climate and plants. It was found that temperatures would increase — which might sound difficult to understand in the desert — but this would also raise the amount of water in the air and double the amount of rainfall. (研究人员还试图找出这样的大型发电厂将如何影响该地区的气候和植物。人们发现气温会升高——这在沙漠中听起来可能很难理解——但这也会增加空气中的水量,使降雨量增加一倍。)”可知,根据这项研究,沙漠的温度将来会更高。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“We found that the large-scale solar and wind power plants can bring more rainfall and help with plants’ growth in these areas. It’s great to think that instead of burning coal or oil and creating disastrous climate change, we could use clean energy to produce positive climate change and change a desert into a beautiful place with water and trees (我们发现,大型太阳能和风力发电厂可以带来更多的降雨,并有助于这些地区的植物生长。想想看,我们可以使用清洁能源,而不是燃烧煤炭或石油,造成灾难性的气候变化,从而产生积极的气候变化,把沙漠变成一个有水有树的美丽地方,这真是太棒了)”可知,Eugenia Kalnay对在撒哈拉沙漠建造大型风能和太阳能发电厂的看法是这是一个双赢的机会。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段的“A new climate-modeling study has found that wind and solar power plants throughout the Sahara Desert (撒哈拉大沙漠) could increase rainfall across the area and benefit plants’ growth. (一项新的气候模拟研究发现,整个撒哈拉沙漠的风能和太阳能发电厂可以增加该地区的降雨量,有利于植物的生长。)”可知,本文主要讲的是整个撒哈拉沙漠的风能和太阳能发电厂可以增加该地区的降雨量,有利于植物的生长,因此本文最好的题目是B选项“Power plants could bring rains to the Sahara Desert (发电厂可以给撒哈拉沙漠带来雨水)”,故选B。

【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章讲述了有兄弟姐妹的好处。
【16题详解】
上文“But siblings (兄弟姐妹) can actually improve your physical and mental health.(但兄弟姐妹实际上可以改善你的身心健康。)”提到有兄弟姐妹可以改善身心健康,下文具体讲述了其好处,故A项“以下是有兄弟姐妹的一些好处”符合语境,故选A项。
【17题详解】
根据本段主题句“Having brothers and sisters makes you kinder.(有兄弟姐妹会让你更善良)”及下文“This is probably because you have a same-generation relative to make you care about others.(这可能是因为你有一个同辈亲戚,让你关心别人。)”可知,有兄弟姐妹会让人更善良,从而更有可能帮助别人,因为有一个同辈的亲戚会让你更关心别人,故C项“这会让你更有可能去帮助别人”能将上下文衔接起来,故选C项。
【18题详解】
空处是本段主题句,根据本段中“Brothers and sisters, whether younger or older, help prevent you from feeling terrible, unloved, lonely, anxious and fearful.(兄弟姐妹,无论年龄大小,都能帮助你避免糟糕的感觉,不被爱,孤独,焦虑和恐惧。)”可知,本段主要讲述有兄弟姐妹有助于让人避免消极的感受,D项“有兄弟姐妹有助于消除不好的感觉”符合语境,故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据本段主题句“Having brothers and sisters can help you have a healthier lifestyle.(有兄弟姐妹可以帮助你拥有更健康的生活方式。)”可知,本段主要讲述有兄弟姐妹对健康生活方式的积极意义,B项“兄弟姐妹可以成为你健康饮食的伴侣”和本段主题一致,故选B项。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Not all of you have brothers and sisters. (你们不是所有人都有兄弟姐妹。)”及下文“Don’t worry. (别担心。)”可知,不是所有人都有兄弟姐妹,或者有兄弟姐妹但关系不好,这些情况都不要担心,所以空处是描述有兄弟姐妹但关系不好的情况,F项“或者你可能和你的兄弟姐妹关系不好”符合语境,故选F项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了40岁的农民和家庭主妇甘有琴通过分享乡村生活并在网上推广相关产品,在促进农产品销售方面取得了巨大成功。文章介绍了她的一些个人情况以及她所取得的成就。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:甘有琴面带微笑,每晚都在直播中与粉丝聊天,努力推销来自广西壮族自治区一个小村庄的橘子。结合句意表示“努力做某事”可知短语为try to do sth.。故填to promote。
【37题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:她和队友们每周帮助村民们销售近50万公斤橘子。根据后文every week可知应用一般现在时,且主语后接介词短语together with her teammates时,不影响主语的人称和数,谓语动词应根据主语的人称和数来确定,即谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填helps。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:这位40岁的妇女曾是一名农民和家庭主妇,现在在家乡很受人尊敬,因为她在促进农产品销售方面取得了巨大成功。结合句意表示“因……受人尊敬”可知短语为be admired for。故填for。
【39题详解】
考查固定短语和时态。句意:甘被认为是分享乡村生活并在网上推广相关产品的先驱之一。结合句意表示“被认为……”可知短语为be known as,结合后文“who shares country life and promotes sales of related products online”可知应用一般现在时,主语为Gan,谓语动词用单数。故填is known。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:甘起初是在侄子的鼓励下,让她在他的以乡村生活为主题的短视频中担任主角。修饰动词encourage应用副词initially,作状语。故填initially。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:甘起初是在侄子的鼓励下,让她在他的以乡村生活为主题的短视频中担任主角。分析句子结构可知feature在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语short videos构成主动关系,故应用现在分词作定语。故填featuring。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:随着甘的名气越来越大,他们开始出售自家果园里的水果,但很快就供不应求了。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰上文fruit from their family orchard,从句中缺少主语,应用关系代词which引导,that不能引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:然后,他们创办了一家电子商务公司,销售来自该地区各地的各种农产品。修饰后文名词product应用形容词agricultural,作定语。故填agricultural。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:甘的公司取得了巨大的成功,她也因此获得了很多奖项。success此处为抽象名词具体化,表示“成功的事物”为可数名词,此处表泛指应用不定冠词,且great是发音以辅音音素开头的单词,应用a。故填a。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:甘的公司取得了巨大的成功,甘的成就让她获得了很多奖项。空处作宾语,表示“成就”应用名词achievement,此处可用单数也可用复数形式。故填achievement(s)。

47. 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。
A little boy selling magazines for school walked up to a house that people rarely visited. The house was very old and shabby (破旧的) and the owner hardly ever came out. When he did come out, he would not say hello to his neighbors or passers- by but simply just glare at them.
The boy knocked on the door and waited, sweating from fear of the old man. The boy’s parents told him to stay away from the house, and a lot of the other neighborhood children were told the same thing from their parents.
As he was ready to walk away, the door slowly opened. “What do you want?” the old man said impatiently. The little boy was very afraid but he had a quota (份额) to meet for school with selling the magazines. So he got up the courage and said, “Uh, sir, I am selling these magazines and uh, I was wondering if you would like to buy one from me.”
The old man just stared at the boy without a word. The boy could see inside the old man’s house and saw that he had dog figurines (小雕像) on the fireplace (壁炉) mantle (覆盖物). “Do you collect dogs?” The little boy asked. “Yes, I have many collections (收藏品) in my house. They are my family here and they are all I have.” The boy then felt sorry for the man, as it seemed that he was a very lonely soul.
“Well, I do have a magazine here for collectors. It is perfect for you. I also have one about dogs since you like dogs so much.” The old man was ready to close the door on the boy and said, “No, boy. I don’t need any magazines of any kind, now goodbye.”
The little boy was sad that he was not going to make his quota with the sale. He was also sad for the old man being so alone in the house that he owned. The boy went home and then had an idea. He had a little dog figurine that he got some years ago from an aunt.
Paragraph 1:
The little boy headed back down to the old man’s house.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
From that day on something changed inside the old man.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The little boy headed back down to the old man’s house. Still filled with fear, he hesitantly knocked on the door, waiting breathlessly. Finally, it opened, and out came the old man. Seeing the boy holding a well-wrapped dog figurine, he looked very astonished but still glared at him without a word. Determined to break the ice, the boy gave the old man the gift with a precious card attached, expressing his care. Moved by what the boy had done, the old man sighed and accepted the boy. In return, he bought a magazine from the boyl. The little boy thanked him and said goodbye to him. The old man didn’t say anything but he stood there watching the boy disappearing into the distance.
From that day on something changed inside the old man. He would go out for a walk once or twice a week. And two months later, he adopted a real live dog. People often saw him walking the lovely dog in the morning and the evening. It seemed that the dog led the lonely soul out of darkness and loneliness. Gradually, he began to greet others with a bright smile. How fortunate it was for the old man to open up his door to the little boy on that afternoon, for he also opened up the door of his heart.

A
Montreal has a unique culture, with its mixture of French and English. If you want to visit one of the best cities in North America, this is the place for you.
The French
Most places in Canada are English-speaking, but Montreal is different. It is a city run by the French and for the French. If you want to work there, you have to speak French. The French and the English generally stay apart from each other. Most of the English can’t speak French and don’t want to learn; most of the French don’t like to speak English. However, it is this “conflict” of cultures that makes Montreal interesting.
Food
The best and unique Canadian food comes from the French. For example, you can find “poutine” — a tasty quick snack. This French invention is my personal favorite, although I must warn you that it isn’t for everyone. The best way to experience poutine is to go north of Montreal to one of the ski resorts (度假胜地). Spend all day skiing. Then, when your body aches all over, go to a mountain bar with friends and have a hot chocolate and a plate of poutine. You will understand why it’s the best food in the world.
Music & Cinema
Montreal is also great for music. There’s a famous jazz festival in the summer. You need a pass for most of the shows, which are usually performed outdoors during the day and night. But wherever you are in Montreal, you can hear the music while you are walking in the streets.
1. Where is this text probably taken from?
A. A science report. B. A travel brochure.
C. An entertainment magazine. D. A textbook.
2. When will you enjoy poutine the most?
A. After a day-long sightseeing. B. When you have a hot chocolate.
C. After a tiring skiing experience. D. After watching shows performed outdoors.
3. What is necessary if you intend to make a living in Montreal?
A. Mastering skiing skills. B. Favoring different cultures.
C. Understanding jazz music. D. Communicating in French.
B
Hello everyone! Meet my new friend Marco. He says Ciao! This means hello in his language. Marco travelled with me this month. When he showed me his country on the map, I was attracted by its shape. It looks like a high-heeled boot (高跟靴) in the Mediterranean Sea that’s kicking a strange-shaped ball. Can you find the name of this ball on the world map?
Marco told me that he loves cars and that his country is well-known for super-fast cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati. Isn’t it cool? The people also love soccer here. They call it “Calcio.” He told me that they have won four World Cups. The most recent win was in 2006! When he shared this with me, he was very excited and full of pride
We visited the country’s capital and I was amazed to find that it was more than 2500 years old! We walked around and soon it was time for dinner. Marco told me that people there eat pasta (意大利面食) at least once a day. The different sauces and toppings (酱汁和佐料) mean they never get bored of it. Also, they love including seasonal vegetables in their dinners. I couldn’t wait to enjoy the pizza and pasta with different toppings and sauces. The cappuccino and focaccia bread also made me happy. It’s no wonder that the world has adopted so much of their food! The people in this country celebrate many holidays and enjoy eating big meals with their family. The festive atmosphere makes everyone happy.
I was lucky to travel to this country in March and enjoy the Bologna Children’s Book Fair. It is held for four days every year. We also visited the Colosseum, Pantheon, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which was really wonderful! Before I said goodbye to Marco, I made a promise to visit again. Can you guess the name of this country?
4. What did the author mention to describe Marco’s country in the first paragraph?
A. Its shape. B. Its population.
C. Its culture D. Its national sport.
5. How did Marco feel when he brought up soccer?
A. Sad. B. Proud. C. Worried. D. Thankful.
6. What can we infer about the food in Marco’s country?
A. It is very simple. B. It makes Marco feel bored.
C. It is mixed with a lot of foreign food. D. It has spread around the world.
7. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To show a friendship. B. To celebrate a festival.
C. To introduce a country. D. To explain a cultural difference.

Everglades National Park (大沼泽地国家公园) is located in the state of Florida. It is the largest wilderness in the entire country and makes up 25% of the wetlands in the state. The park is home to several rare and endangered species. It is also the third largest national park in the US, after Death Valley and Yellowstone. Each year, about 1 million tourists visit the park. On a global level, it has been announced as a World Heritage Site.
Unlike most other national parks, Everglades National Park was created to protect an ecosystem (生态系统) from damage. In 1947, President Harry Truman spoke at the official opening of Everglades National Park, saying the goal of creating the park was to protect forever a wild area that could never be replaced.
10,000 different islands make up Everglades National Park. Each of these islands is lived by natural wildlife. The Everglades is home to about 15 species that are endangered. In addition, more than 350 bird species and 300 species of fresh and saltwater fish live within the park. The Everglades is also home to 40 species of mammals and 50 reptile species.
There are many ways to explore the Everglades. Visitors can see alligators (短吻鳄) while hiking the Anhinga Trail. The Everglades is one of the only places on Earth where freshwater alligators and saltwater crocodiles live in the same area. Visitors using airboats are likely to see large groups of birds. Some visitors might enjoy riding bicycles through Shark Valley. Others may want to move slowly through waters where they can see insects and wildlife closely.
According to experts, changes to the Everglades are becoming a danger to several different kinds of wildlife. They say it is a result of actions the US government began more than 50 years ago, and settlers began even earlier.
8. In the first paragraph, we’re mainly told that ________.
A. Florida is famous for its wetlands B. the US has three important national parks
C. Everglades National Park is of great value D. Everglades National Park is popular with visitors
9. How does the author describe the richness of wildness in the park?
A. By listing figures. B. By personally experiencing.
C. By making a comparison. D. By carrying on a study.
10. From the passage, we know that _______.
A in fact Everglades National Park is a big island
B. visitors are not allowed to stay in the water in the park.
C. President Harry Truman first suggested setting up the park
D the park is among the few places where alligators and crocodiles live together
11. What would be further discussed if the passage is continued?
A. What the government has done to protect the park.
B. How the park’s environment was badly changed.
C. What readers can do to help to save the wetlands.
D. How important endangered wildlife is to the world.
D
Building large-scale (大规模的) wind and solar power plants (发电厂) doesn’t just have the power to provide the world with a huge amount of energy; it has the power to actually change the climate for the better. A new climate-modeling study has found that wind and solar power plants throughout the Sahara Desert (撒哈拉大沙漠) could increase rainfall across the area and benefit plants’ growth.
When it comes to the Sahara Desert, here come the opinions of the researchers. For one, there’s plenty of sunlight and plenty of wind over the sandy areas. It’s also close to Europe and the Middle East, which need great amounts of energy. What’s more, wind and solar power plants that cover about 9 million kilometers of the desert could provide about 3 terawatts (太瓦) and 79 terawatts of electricity separately. That would meet global energy needs several times over.
The researchers also tried to find out how such large power plants would affect the area’s climate and plants. It was found that temperatures would increase — which might sound difficult to understand in the desert — but this would also raise the amount of water in the air and double the amount of rainfall. That’s a fair trade, as this place could become green with even a little increase in rainfall.

47. 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。
A little boy selling magazines for school walked up to a house that people rarely visited. The house was very old and shabby (破旧的) and the owner hardly ever came out. When he did come out, he would not say hello to his neighbors or passers- by but simply just glare at them.
The boy knocked on the door and waited, sweating from fear of the old man. The boy’s parents told him to stay away from the house, and a lot of the other neighborhood children were told the same thing from their parents.
As he was ready to walk away, the door slowly opened. “What do you want?” the old man said impatiently. The little boy was very afraid but he had a quota (份额) to meet for school with selling the magazines. So he got up the courage and said, “Uh, sir, I am selling these magazines and uh, I was wondering if you would like to buy one from me.”
The old man just stared at the boy without a word. The boy could see inside the old man’s house and saw that he had dog figurines (小雕像) on the fireplace (壁炉) mantle (覆盖物). “Do you collect dogs?” The little boy asked. “Yes, I have many collections (收藏品) in my house. They are my family here and they are all I have.” The boy then felt sorry for the man, as it seemed that he was a very lonely soul.
“Well, I do have a magazine here for collectors. It is perfect for you. I also have one about dogs since you like dogs so much.” The old man was ready to close the door on the boy and said, “No, boy. I don’t need any magazines of any kind, now goodbye.”
The little boy was sad that he was not going to make his quota with the sale. He was also sad for the old man being so alone in the house that he owned. The boy went home and then had an idea. He had a little dog figurine that he got some years ago from an aunt.
Paragraph 1:
The little boy headed back down to the old man’s house.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
From that day on something changed inside the old man.
