But this is no rain cloud, it is a living cloud made of billions of locusts (蝗虫) that are traveling across the continent eating everything in their path. And now in the battle to stop this disaster, a radio station in Senegal, West Africa, is offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts. "We think this idea will get more people to take part in the war on the locusts," said Abdoulaye, from Sud-Fm, a radio station in one of Senegal's worst affected areas. This is West Africa's biggest locust disaster in 15 years, and it is moving east, causing huge damage to crops. As they move they produce young and increase their number and will soon threaten Sudan in the northeast of Africa. Some say it could reach Asia. Experts say the harmful effect on crops in areas already suffering from food shortage and war could cause many people to go hungry. Governments in the areas are not well equipped to fight the pest. Although leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough. "We are now treating 6,000 hectares (公顷) per day with pesticide (杀虫剂), but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster," said Mohamed Abdallahi Ould Babnh, director of locust control Mauritania. "Requests are being made for international aid, which is the only way to limit the disaster," the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization warned. 31. By using "dark cloud" to describe locusts in the first paragraph, the author of the article A. showed the size and speed of the mass of locusts B. suggested the great damage that locusts can cause C. warned that locusts would sweep the continent like rain clouds D. both A and B 32. The story is mainly about A. West Africa's united effort in fighting a disaster B. the difficulty in controlling locusts C. how locusts caused great damage to West Africa D. a struggle to fight against a disaster brought by locusts in West Africa 33. The locust disaster A. would be even more serious in Asia B. is(was) out of control C. affected only the warning areas D. can't be stopped unless twice as much pesticide is provided for the affected areas 34. Which of the following is WRONG? A. Sud-Fm offered a reward for fighting locusts so that more people would join in the effort. B. Senegal is to the southwest of Sudan. C. The locusts can cause such damage mainly because it has no natural enemy in West Africa. D. 12 countries affected by locusts have united but still lack pesticide. 35. Where can we know about the news? A. A TV Channel. B. A model magazine. C. A novel. D. A tour book. 【答案】31. D 32．D 33．B 34．C 35．A 【导语】本文主要报道了非洲部分地区遭遇严重蝗灾的情况，蝗虫如乌云般肆虐，破坏农作物，西非国家 Senegal 通过电台悬赏鼓励民众参与灭蝗，同时各国虽制定计划但因资源不足难以控制灾情，联合国呼吁国际援助以遏制灾难。 【详解】 31．推理判断题。第一段中 “dark cloud” 既描述了蝗虫数量庞大（如乌云般的规模和移动速度），又暗示其 “eating everything in their path” 的巨大破坏力，A 和 B 选项均符合文意，故选 D。 32．主旨大意题。文章围绕西非地区对抗蝗灾这一灾难展开，包括蝗灾的影响、应对措施及面临的困难，D 选项 “西非对抗蝗灾带来的灾难的斗争” 能概括全文主旨。A 选项 “联合努力”、B 选项 “控制困难”、C 选项 “破坏情况” 均为部分内容，不全面，故选 D。 33．细节理解题。根据第五段中 “we are now treating 6,000 hectares per day... but we need to treat 20,000 hectares per day in order to have any hope of controlling this disaster” 可知，目前的处理量远低于所需，蝗灾已失控，B 选项正确。A 选项 “在亚洲更严重” 是推测，并非事实；C 选项 “仅影响预警地区” 错误，文中说 “moving east... threaten Sudan... could reach Asia”；D 选项 “需两倍杀虫剂” 错误，实际差距更大，故选 B。 34．细节理解题。C 选项 “蝗虫破坏严重主要因为在西非没有天敌” 在文中无依据，属于无中生有，是错误的。A 选项与第二段中 “offering listeners 50 kilograms of rice if they can catch and kill 50 kilograms of locusts” 一致；B 选项根据 “Senegal... northeast of Africa... Sudan” 可推测地理位置正确；D 选项与第五段中 “leaders of 12 countries have agreed on a plan, it is not expected to be enough” 一致，故选 C。 35．推理判断题。蝗灾属于时事新闻，最可能来自电视频道（A 选项）。B 选项 “模型杂志”、C 选项 “小说”、D 选项 “旅游书” 均不符合新闻报道的载体特征，故选 A。 五、书面表达（20分） 近几年，共享单车在中国城市很普及，它给人们的生活带来了很大的影响。请你以 Let’s Go on Using Shared Bikes为题，写一篇短文。包括以下内容要点： （1）首先，共享单车是一种廉价的交通方式（means of transportation），给人们带来了极大的便利。 （2）共享单车还节约了能源，改善了交通状况，并且不会产生污染，有利于保护环境。 （3）我们要鼓励更多的人使用共享单车，并希望它能得到有效的管理，使人们更自觉地爱护它。让我们骑上共享单车，共同创建绿色、环保的美丽中国。 写作要求： （1）词数不少于80。 （2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Let’s Go on Using Shared Bikes ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【范文】 Let’s Go on Using Shared Bikes In recent years, shared bikes have become very popular in China, especially in cities.
