Tidewater Tidewater areas feature forests with unique trees such as the bald cypress.Sweet gum trees,an eastern Virginia species,have every single color on one tree.One interesting thing about swampy(沼泽的)，low-lying areas in the eastern part of the state:They change earlier than traditional forests do in the surrounding landscape,likely because colder nights closer to water sources force an earlier change in those species. Southwest Virginia Thanks to a combination of tree species,high elevation (and geographic location, this region is one of the earliest to show its striking colors.Every year is a little different, depending on what has happened over the summer in terms of rainfall and heat.But generally in Southwest Virginia,the peak(巅峰状态的)time of color is going to start in the west and progress to the east. Northern Virginia Parks such as Sky Meadows State Park in Fauquier County and Prince William Forest Park boast an impressive variety of tree types that produce a picture of colors.Beech and hickories are pretty much midseason standouts,turning yellow gold all over the tree.This contrasts well with all the oaks,which are usually late season;all of them often are green while everything else is blazing. Central and Southside Virginia Central and Southside Virginia are dominated by diverse forests of coniferous(松柏科的) trees that do not change color,such as pine trees and leaf-dropping trees such as oaks and hickories.Pocahontas State Park,south of Richmond,provides nearly 8,000 acres of all- inclusive forest that towers over visitors,while High Bridge Trail State Park gives a top-down foliage view. 11.What is special about sweet gum trees in autumn? A.They change colors in late season. 【高二英语第2页（共10页）】 扫描全能王创建 B.They maintain original green color. C.They take on a golden yellow color. D.They display many colors on one tree. 12.Why is the autumn foliage different each year in Southwest Virginia? A.The water sources affect the color. B.The tree species changes each year. C.The summer weather conditions vary. D.The high elevation causes cold nights. 13.Which place offers a bird's-eye view of the autumn foliage? A.Sky Meadows State Park. B.Pocahontas State Park. C.Prince William Forest Park D.High Bridge Trail State Park. 夕 Researchers have some new evidence about what makes birds make so much noise early in the morning,and it's not for some of the reasons they previously thought.For decades,a popular theory about why birds sing at dawn-called the dawn chorus ()-has been that they can be heard farther and more clearly at that time.Sound travels faster in humid air and it's more humid early in the morning.It's less windy,too,which is thought to lessen any distortion(失真)of their sounds. But scientists in India studied audio recordings of birds in the rainforest.They said they didn't find proof to support this idea about sound traveling better.It was one of the ideas about environmental factors.Another idea is that birds sing at dawn because it's too dark to look for food. "We didn't find much support for some of these environmental reasons suggested in past studies for birds singing more at dawn,said Vijay Ramesh,a researcher at Cornell University. The researchers didn't find one clear reason why the dawn chorus happens,but they found some support for the ideas that the early morning noise is about birds marking their territory after being inactive at night and talking about finding food. The team analyzed recordings from audio recorders placed at 43 locations in the Western Ghats mountain range in southern India,which is known as a biodiversity hotspot.They examined sounds of what they determined were 69 different species of birds.They studied recordings from the hours around dawn and the hours around dusk to compare activities. Unsurprisingly to anyone who's been roused by bird calls,the vast majority of species they studied had significantly higher vocal activities at dawn compared to dusk. 【高二英语第3页（共10页）】 扫描全能王创建 What cn be inferred from the findings of the study? A.Birds'dawn singing may serve social functions B.The old theory about dawn chorus is true. C.Birds are less active at dusk due to light. D.All birds sing to mark territory at dawn. What as the resreapproh n the study? A.They observed birds'feeding habits in the morning. B.They conducted experiments in a laboratory setting. C.They tracked birds'movements in different countries. D.They analyzed audio recordings from tens of locations. 6.What does the underlined word "roused"in the last paragraph mean? A.Reminded. B.Waken up. C.Threatened. D.Stirred up. C Researchers from Northwestern University and the Chicago Botanic Garden will study the Carbon capture (effects of soil additives on agricultural fields. For the world to meet the global average temperature goals set forth in the 2015 Paris Agreement,we need to actively decrease carbon emissions ()Earth and planetary sciences professor Andy Jacobson suggests Earth science can help it and that one possible way is to capture atmospheric carbon dioxide (COa)and lock it away for a few thousand years. The chemical weathering (of rocks is a natural phenomenon that transforms atmospheric CO2 into a stable mineral form.When CO2 dissolves in water,it creates a Substance that can break down rocks.This transformation releases elements from certain rocks and changes COz into a stable form.Over time,these elements combine to form minerals that are the building blocks of many natural structures and rocks.This transformation helps to lock carbon in a solid form,which plays an important part in stabilizing Earth's climate over the long term. "Over much shorter human timescales,this stable form of COa acts as a sink for atmospheric CO2,"says Jacobson.Can we speed up the weathering process and actively remove carbon from the atmosphere at rates fast enough to help reduce the impact of modern climate change? Enhanced rock weathering was proposed as a strategy of decreasing carbon emissions decades ago but only recently gained interest.An article in a 2020 magazine estimated that enhanced weathering could remove up to 2 billion tons of CO2 annually from the atmosphere by2050. Jacobson is leading a team of researchers to investigate this negative emissions technology. In a series of experimental systems that simulate natural conditions at the garden,researchers will test the effects from adding different types of rock to soils used to grow various crops. 【高二英语第4页（共10页）】 扫描全能王创建 The soil additives will include a volcanic rock that chemically weathers faster than other rocks and minerals,potentially speeding up COz capture and storage. 17.What does Jacobson stress about Earth science in paragraph 2? A.Its scientific origin as a principle. B.Its present limitations in carbon capture. C.Its potential role in achieving climate goals. D.Its logical accuracy in temperature prediction. 18.What is mainly discussed in paragraph 3 concerning rocks? A.Their natural structures. B.The reasons for their formation. 欧 C.The process of their weathering. D.Their stable chemical composition. 19.What is the main function of the question in paragraph 4? A.To introduce the following solution. B.To doubt the content of a magazine. C.To summarize the previous paragraph. D.To show the fast rate of climate change. 20.What is the best title for the text? 封 A.Can Humans Stabilize Earth's Climate? B.Is Farming the Key to Carbon Capture? C.What Is the Chemical Weathering of Rocks? D.How Do Carbon Emissions Speed up Global Warming? 第二节语句排序（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。 21:→22→23→24→25 A.It boils down to this:I was born with an enormous amount of drive and determination. 线 From a small girl,I would stay in at lunch time just to get ahead on class work rather than go out and play;I would get on the bus on my own at ten years old and go to swim 100 lengths of the pool while other kids played pool games;I was the only girl in a rugby club of 250 boys. B.I have always lived my life to extremes.Call it unhealthy if you want,but that is the way live,no matter what I'm applying myself to. C.Being a professional athlete is no different.If you want to be an Olympic champion,it's al about that little extra thing you have done in your preparation that will set you apart fron your competitors. 【高二英语第5页（共10页）】 扫描全能王创建 D.Can this be overdone?Absolutely.But if your dream is to be the best and reach the winner's platform,you had better be totally committed to your sport.In the words of the British athlete Alistair Brownlee,even if it means getting injured,"I'd prefer to have three or four outstanding years of winning stuff than having ten years of being average." E.Doing what we do as athletes sets us apart because we are willing to do that extra little bit that might take us to the top.It is certainly not a balanced way to live and it is certainly not normal but those words are generally not used for anyone who is working for greatness. 第三节选句填空（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余 选项。 How to Stay Focused Staying focused can help you complete a variety of professional and personal tasks,from studying for a test to finishing your work an hour early.There are various practical steps you can take to help yourself focus better. Make a to-do list.Making a to-do list at the beginning of every day or week can make you feel more focused and positive to continue your work.You will feel more fulfilled when you check those tasks off your list and move on to the next one.26 Organize your workspace.Having a clean space can help you focus and get your work done with much more concentration.27 Clean off your desk to include only the things you need to work on,leaving just a few photos or souvenirs to help you relax a bit. Give yourself a time limit for each taskNext to each item on the list,write about how long it'll take you to complete each task.Be realistic about this judgement.Then,try to complete each task within the range of each time limit. Make time for breaks during the day.Though it may sound counter-intuitive(反直觉的) to add relaxation into your daily schedule,this step will actually help you stay focused. 29 This will help you get more energetic to finish the task,give you a break to rest your eyes,and will give you some time to prepare for the next task ahead. 80 Many people incorrectly think that multi-tasking is great because it allows you to deal with a variety of tasks at the same time.To the contrary,multi-tasking actually confuses your brain and slows you down,keeping you from being fully engaged in any one task. A.Prioritize your tasks. B.Multi-task less to make you focused. C.This will also keep you focused on one task at a time. D.Managing your time goes hand in hand with making a to-do list. E.You should take at least a 5-10 minute break for every hour of work. 【高二英语第6页（共10页）】 扫描全能王创建 F.It's better to save the easier or more manageable tasks for the end of the day.
