【详解】考查交际用语。根据回答可知:第二个人赞成他加入这个唱歌团体,故用why not,为什么不呢?
2.The reason ________ John gave for being late was ________ he forgot to use the alarm clock.
A.which; because B.why; because C.which; that D.that; because
【答案】C
【详解】考查定语从句和表语从句。句意:约翰给出的迟到的理由是他忘了用闹钟。第一个空为定语从句,The reason为先行词,作定语从句中gave的宾语,关系代词为that或者which。第二个空为表语从句,句意和句子结构完整,连接词为that。故选C。
3.Alice is the only one of the students who ________ a winner of scholarship for three years.
A.is B.are C.have been D.has been
【答案】D
【详解】考查主谓一致和时态。句意:Alice 是这些学生中唯一一个连续三年获得奖学金的人。此处the only one of the students中的先行词是the only one,所以定语从句中的谓语动词要用单数形式。而且句中因为有状语for three years,要用现在完成时。故选D项。
4.He is ________ a teacher, he is also our friend and mentor.
A.other than B.less than C.rather than D.more than
【答案】D
【详解】考查固定短语辨析。句意:他不仅仅是一位老师,他也是我们的朋友和导师。A. other than除了;B. less than少于;C. rather than而不是;D. more than不仅仅。根据后文“he is also our friend and mentor.”指不仅仅是老师,也是朋友和导师。故选D。

6.When John had to stop ______ due to health problems, he decided ______ how to draw.
A.to skate; to learn B.to skate; learning
C.skating; to learn D.skating; learning
【答案】C
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:当约翰因为健康问题不得不停止滑冰时,他决定学习如何画画。本句中had和decided为谓语动词,两空均用非谓语动词形式。第一个空,stop doing sth.表示“停止正在做的事”,stop to do sth.表示“停下来去做另一件事”,根据语境,这里是说因为健康问题停止滑冰这个动作,所以用stop skating,动名词形式作宾语;第二个空,decide to do sth.是固定搭配,表示“决定做某事”,用不定式to learn作宾语。故选C。
7.Despite the previous rounds of talks, no agreement ________ so far by the two sides.
A.has been reached B.was reached C.will reach D.reached
【答案】A
【详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:尽管之前进行了几轮会谈,但到目前为止双方还没有达成任何协议。reach (达成)是句中谓语动词,与主语agreement之间是被动关系,句中有时间状语so far,强调到目前为止的结果,应用现在完成时的被动语态,又因主语是单数名词,谓语用单数形式has been reached。故选A项。
8.Nowadays the ________ for travelling is shifted from shopping to food and scenery.

10.---I wonder why time is late again.
---Well, he ________ his train, or maybe overslept.
A.might miss B.may have missed C.should have missed D.must have missed
【答案】B
【详解】考查情态动词表推测。句意上:——我想知道怎么又迟到了?——嗯, 他要么错过了火车,要么或许睡过了头。may/might+have done的形式表示对过去发生事情的不确定的推测。根据句子中的maybe一词可知,前面对于错过火车也是推测,may/might+have done符合句意。故选C项。

When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
“Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does. “Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says. “You put organisms in new relationships and observe what’s happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”
41.What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?
A.He enjoyed being alone. B.He was fond of traveling.
C.He longed to be a doctor. D.He had an inquiring mind.
42.Why did John put the sludge into the tanks?
A.To test the eco-machine. B.To build an ecosystem.
C.To protect the plants. D.To feed the animals.
43.What happened to the sludge in the eco-machine?
A.It remained unchanged. B.It was removed permanently.
C.It was eaten by plants and animals. D.It transformed into harmful substances.
44.What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Fuzhou?
A.To review John’s research plans. B.To compare John’s different jobs.
C.To show an application of John’s idea. D.To eras doubts about John’s invention.
45.What is the basis for John’s work?
A.Nature can repair itself. B.Life on Earth is diverse.
C.Organisms need water to survive. D.Most tiny creatures live in groups.
【答案】41.D 42.A 43.C 44.C 45.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了John Todd从小就喜欢观察大自然净化环境,长大后他开始思考如何运用这一过程来净化人类制造的肮脏,后来他设计出了一款生态机器来处理污水里的有害物质,多年来他承接了许多大项目,帮助净化污水。
41.推理判断题。根据第一段“When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.(当John Todd还是个孩子的时候,他喜欢探索房子周围的树林,观察大自然是如何解决问题的。例如,一条肮脏的溪流在穿过植物和微小生物居住的岩石后往往会变得清澈。当他长大后,John开始想知道这个过程是否可以用来清理人们制造的肮脏)”和第二段“After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.(在大学里学习了农业、医学和渔业知识之后,约翰又重新投入到对自然的观察和探索中,并开始提出各种问题。为什么某些植物能够抑制有害细菌的滋生?哪些种类的鱼能够分解致癌物质?他推测,如果能将合适的动植物组合起来,或许就能像大自然那样处理废弃物。于是,他决定建造一个他后来称之为“生态机器”的装置)”可知,John Todd从小就喜欢观察大自然,他长大后思考这个过程是否可以用来清理人类污染,大学里他在学习的时候也会观察大自然并提问题,由此可推测出,他好问、爱探索。故选D。
42.细节理解题。根据第三段“After a few weeks, John added the sludge.(几周后,John加入了污泥)”和第四段“He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.(他对这一结果感到十分惊讶。生态机器中的植物和动物将污泥当作食物并开始食用它!短短几周内,所有的污泥都被消化掉了,剩下的就只有纯净的水了)”可推知,他把污泥加进去是为了测试生态机器的效果,结果是污泥全部被净化了。故选A。
43.细节理解题。根据第四段“The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it!(生态机器中的植物和动物将污泥当作食物,并开始食用它!)”可知,生态机器里的淤泥被植物和动物给吃掉了。故选C。
44.推理判断题。根据第五段“Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou. a city in southeast China.(多年来,约翰承担了许多艰巨的任务。他建造了一个类似温室的设施,用于处理南伯灵顿1600户家庭的污水。他还设计了一种生态净化设备,用于净化中国东南部城市福州的运河水)”可知,John已经承担了很多大型工作。紧接着通过他的发明应用于南伯林顿和福州的例子来说明他的想法在实践中的应用。故选C。
45.推理判断题。根据第二段“With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.(他认为,如果能将合适的动植物组合起来,或许就能像大自然那样处理废弃物了。于是,他决定建造一个他后来称之为“生态机器”的装置)”和最后一段中的“Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.(然后你让这些新系统发展出自己的自我修复方式)”可推知,他工作的基础是自然会自我修复。故选A。
C
Charter schools operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools differ from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what to teach and how to teach it.
The “charter” is a performance contract. It establishes the goals of the school and other details like how student performance will be measured. Forty-seven million students attend traditional public schools. But more than a million students attend charter schools.
And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environmentally friendly school buildings but to also go further than that. The schools teach students to become involved in community issues that affect them and the environment. For example, young children grow crops in a school garden and learn about healthy eating. Older students help recycle waste from the cafeteria. And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.
Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. He says the plan is to also include traditional public schools as well as private schools.
Jim McGrath: “The most important thing is that every one of us — every child, every adult — has a responsibility that their action, every action we make has an effect on the earth that we live in, and that our natural resources are not unlimited, and that if we want a positive earth for future generations, we all need to make commitments to be agents of change so that we don’t destroy our natural resources.”
The Green Charter Schools Network holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota. It will include companies and organizations like Waste Management and the United States Green Building Council. We sincerely hope that their goal is to expand the movement across the country.
46.Charter schools are quite different from public ones in that _______.
A.they are operated by public money. B.they still use the traditional rules.
C.they have more freedom in management. D.they attract more students than others.
47.The Green Charter Schools Network is established to _______.
A.advise teenagers to attend charter schools B.paint the school building in the color green
C.measure the students with the same standard D.get students involved in environment friendly activities
48.The following statements about the Network are true EXCEPT that _______.
A.it only concerns the charter schools in the U.S.
B.it holds its first national conference in Minnesota.
C.it will benefit both the schools and the communities.
D.it promotes different schools to share their achievements.
49.According to Jim McGrath, _______.
A.people’s action plays little part in nature
B.natural resources are abundant for people to use
C.students should be taught to be responsible for the world
D.everyone should make efforts to change the positive nature
50.What’s the writer’s purpose of this passage?
A.To criticize the traditional education system.
B.To encourage the students to adopt healthy eating.
C.To inspire people to recycle waste from the cafeteria.
D.To arouse the schools to take action to protect the earth
【答案】46.C 47.D 48.A 49.C 50.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国“绿色特许学校网络”:以公立资金运营、管理更灵活的特许学校,通过校园环保设施与课程,让学生参与种植、回收等社区环保实践。
46.细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Charter schools operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools differ from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what to teach and how to teach it.(特许学校依靠公共资金运作,但没有传统公立学校的许多规定。在美国,特许学校的规定因州而异。但总的来说,这些学校有更大的自由来决定教什么和怎么教。)”可知,特许学校与传统公立学校最大的不同在于管理自由度更大。故选C项。
47.细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environmentally friendly school buildings but to also go further than that. The schools teach students to become involved in community issues that affect them and the environment.(现在一些特许学校组成了绿色特许学校网络。我们的想法是建造环境友好型的学校建筑,但还不止于此。学校教导学生参与影响他们和环境的社区问题。)”可知,绿色特许学校网络的成立是为了让学生参与环保活动。故选D项。
48.细节理解题。第四段Jim McGrath明确表示计划“Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. He says the plan is to also include traditional public schools as well as private schools.(吉姆·麦格拉思是绿色特许学校网络的主席。他说,美国大约有200所“绿色”特许学校。他说,该计划还包括传统的公立学校和私立学校。)”可知,绿色特许学校网络不只关注特许学校。故选A项。
49.细节理解题。第五段Jim McGrath强调“The most important thing is that every one of us——every child, every adult——has a responsibility that their action, every action we make has an effect on the earth that we live in, and that our natural resources are not unlimited, and that if we want a positive earth for future generations, we all need to make commitments to be agents of change so that we don’t destroy our natural resources.(最重要的是,我们每一个人——每一个孩子,每一个成年人——都有责任,他们的行为,我们的每一个行为都会对我们居住的地球产生影响,我们的自然资源不是无限的,如果我们想为后代创造一个积极的地球,我们都需要做出承诺,成为变革的推动者,这样我们就不会破坏我们的自然资源。)”,即应教育学生对世界负责。故选C项。
50.推理判断题。 文章整体介绍绿色特许学校网络的环保倡议,最后一段呼吁“We sincerely hope that their goal is to expand the movement across the country.(我们真诚希望他们的目标是将运动扩展到全国。)”,所以,作者写这篇文章的目的是唤起学校采取行动保护地球。故选D项。

One thing the tour books don’t tell you about London is that 2,000 of its residents are foxes. They ran away from the city about centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in. But now that the environment is cleaner, the foxes have come home, one of the many wild animals that have moved into urban areas around the world.
“The number and variety of wild animals in urban areas is increasing,” says Gomer Jones, president of the National Institute for Urban Wildlife, in Columbia, Maryland. A survey of the wildlife in New York’s Central Park last year tallied the species of mammals, including muskrats (麝鼠), shrews (鼩睛) and flying squirrels. A similar survey conducted in the 1890s counted only five species. One of the country’s largest populations of raccoon now lives in Washington D.C., and moose (驼鹿) are regularly seen wandering into Maine towns. Peregrine falcons (游隼) dive from the window ledges of buildings in the largest U. S. cities to prey on pigeons.
Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities. Foremost is that air and water quality in many cities has improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, leaving many animals on the edges of suburbs. In addition, urban wildlife refuges have been created. The Greater London Council last year spent £750,000 to buy land and build10 permanent wildlife refuges in the city. Over 1,000 volunteers have donated money and cleared rubble from derelict (荒废的) lots. One evening last year a fox was seen on Westminster Bridge looking up at Big Ben.
For peregrine falcons, cities are actually safer than rural cliff dwellings (悬崖栖息地). By 1970 the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because the DDT had made their eggs too thin to support life. That year, scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in cities, for cities afforded abundant food.
Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful. The trick is to create habitats where they can be self-sufficient but still be seen and appreciated. Such habitats can even be functional. In San Francisco, the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones retain (保持) the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.
51.The passage mentions a significant increase in mammal species in New York’s Central Park to _________.
A.Highlight the unexpected diversity found in small urban parks.
B.Provide evidence supporting the claim that wildlife in urban areas is increasing.
C.Contrast the wildlife success in New York with the failure in other cities.
D.Argue that shrews and flying squirrels are better adapted to cities than foxes.
52.Which of the following is NOT a reason that wildlife is returning to the cities?
A.Food is plentiful in the cities.
B.Wildlife is threatened by predators in the wild.
C.Wildlife refuges have been built in the cities
D.Air and water quality has improved in the cities
53.The underlined word “tallied” in Para.2 means _________.
A.Distinguished B.described C.counted D.excluded
54.The example of San Francisco testing rainwater basins implies that _________.
A.Cities prioritize bird attraction over clean water management:
B.Ecological benefits and practical functions cannot be achieved at the same time.
C.Wildlife habitats in cities can be designed to serve dual purposes.
D.Birds are the best indicator species for urban water cleanliness.
55.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Wildlife returning to large cities
B.Foxes returning to London
C.Wild animals living in zoos
D.A survey of wildlife in New York
【答案】51.B 52.B 53.C 54.C 55.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍随着环境改善等多种因素,野生动物正回归城市,以伦敦、纽约等地为例阐述这一现象及原因,并提及城市可通过创造多功能栖息地吸引野生动物。
51.推理判断题。根据第二段““The number and variety of wild animals in urban areas is increasing,” says Gomer Jones, president of the National Institute for Urban Wildlife, in Columbia, Maryland.(马里兰州哥伦比亚市国家城市野生动物研究所所长戈默·琼斯说:“城市地区野生动物的数量和种类正在增加。”)”,紧接着提到纽约中央公园哺乳动物物种数量的显著增加,可知此处提及该内容是为了提供证据支持城市野生动物数量在增加这一观点。故选B项。
52.细节理解题。根据第三段“Foremost is that air and water quality in many cities has improved as a result of the 1970s pollution - control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, leaving many animals on the edges of suburbs. In addition, urban wildlife refuges have been created.(首先,由于20世纪70年代的污染控制措施,许多城市的空气和水质得到了改善。与此同时,农村地区得到了开发,许多动物来到了郊区边缘。此外,城市还建立了野生动物保护区)”以及第四段“for cities afforded abundant food(因为城市提供了丰富的食物)”可知,A选项“Food is plentiful in the cities.(城市里食物充足)”、C选项“Wildlife refuges have been built in the cities(城市里建立了野生动物保护区)”、D选项“Air and water quality has improved in the cities(城市的空气和水质得到了改善)”均是野生动物回归城市的原因。B选项“Wildlife is threatened by predators in the wild.(野生动物在野外受到捕食者的威胁)”在文中未提及是野生动物回归城市的原因。故选B项。
53.词义猜测题。根据第二段“A survey of the wildlife in New York's Central Park last year tallied the species of mammals, including muskrats(麝鼠), shrews(鼩睛) and flying squirrels. A similar survey conducted in the 1890s counted only five species.(去年对纽约中央公园野生动物的一项调查tallied哺乳动物的种类,包括麝鼠、鼩鼱和飞鼠。19 世纪 90 年代进行的一项类似调查仅统计出了五个物种)”可知,此处“tallied”与“counted”意思相近,意为“统计,计数”。故选C项。
54.推理判断题。根据最后一段“The trick is to create habitats where they can be self - sufficient but still be seen and appreciated. Such habitats can even be functional. In San Francisco, the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones retain (保持) the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.(诀窍在于创造栖息地,让它们能够自给自足,同时又能被看到和欣赏。这样的栖息地甚至可以具有功能性。在旧金山,当地政府正在测试不同类型的雨水控制盆地,不仅要看看哪些能保持最清洁的水,还要看看哪些能吸引最多的鸟类)”可知,旧金山测试雨水盆地的例子表明城市中的野生动物栖息地可以被设计成具有双重目的,既保持水质又吸引鸟类。故选C项。
55.主旨大意题。文章开篇以伦敦狐狸回归为例,接着阐述城市野生动物数量和种类增加这一现象,分析其原因,并提及城市可创造多功能栖息地吸引野生动物,整体围绕野生动物回归大城市展开。A选项“Wildlife returning to large cities(野生动物回归大城市)”符合文章主旨。故选A项。

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
Milan-based company Krill Design is changing the way we think about waste by creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill. The special material is biodegradable, and can be used repeatedly.
Founded in 2018, Krill uses fruit skin, orange seeds and coffee grounds collected from businesses in Italy to create their unique designs, including bookends, clocks, bowls, and lamps. Each product is made through a four-step process. “There are a lot of companies that create designs, and we want to be different,” says MarcoDi Maio, director of operations at Krill.
Krill has worked together with some well-known brands and has also joined in a Co. ffee Era project with the government of Milan to reduce coffee waste produced in three of the city's neighborhoods. Krill has made products that match the color of food waste. For example, bright orange products are from orange skin and rich dark brown products are from coffee grounds.
Rekrill is as strong as wood and breaks down safely unless it's touched by water or acidity. It is also safe for fish to eat. But despite its eco-friendly benefits, Rekrill is more expensive than common plastic due to its complex production process. However, Krill hopes that as awareness of the environmental impact of plastics grows, Rekrill will be more widely used. Krill is exploring the use of other food waste, such as eggshells and leftover tomatoes and grapes, aiming to make its production process more efficient and cost-effective.
The company believes Rekrill is the material of the future. Every small step they take toward a sustainable world contributes to a more recyclable economy and inspires others to follow suit.
56.How does the company Krill Design change the way people think about waste? (no more than 10 words)
57.How many steps does each product need before it is made? (no more than 2 words)
58.What is the disadvantage of Rekrill compared with common plastic? (no more than 5 words)
59.What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 mean? (no more than 1 word)
60.What do you think of Rekrill and explain? (no more than 20 words)
【答案】56.By creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill. 57.Four steps 58.It is more expensive. 59.Renewable/Recyclable/Reusable. 或Breaking down easily 60.It is eco-friendly. Because it can break down easily and helps protect the environment.
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一家名为Krill Design的米兰公司,该公司通过使用名为Rekrill的生物塑料材料来制造家具产品,从而改变了我们对废物的看法。Rekrill是一种可生物降解、可重复使用的材料,由意大利企业收集的水果皮、橙籽和咖啡渣制成。
56.考查细节理解。根据第一段“Milan-based company Krill Design is changing the way we think about waste by creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill.(米兰的Krill Design公司通过创造由名为Rekrill的类似塑料的生物材料制成的家具产品,改变了我们对废物的看法。)”可知,Krill Design公司通过创造由Rekrill这种类似塑料的生物材料制成的家具产品,改变了人们对废物的看法。故答案填By creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill.
57.考查细节理解。根据第二段“Each product is made through a four-step process.(每个产品都是通过一个四步流程制成的。)”可知,每个产品在制造之前需要经过四个步骤。故答案填Four steps。
58.考查细节理解。根据第四段“But despite its eco-friendly benefits, Rekrill is more expensive than common plastic due to its complex production process.(尽管它具有环保优势,但由于其复杂的生产过程,Rekrill比普通塑料更昂贵。)”可知,与普通塑料相比,Rekrill的缺点是它更昂贵。故答案填It is more expensive.
59.考查细节理解。根据第四段“Rekrill is as strong as wood and breaks down safely unless it's touched by water or acidity.(Rekrill和木头一样坚固,除非接触到水或酸性物质,否则可以安全分解。)”可知,文章中划线的词指的是Rekrill材料的可生物降解特性。故答案填Renewable/Recyclable/Reusable. 或Breaking down easily。
60.考查推理判断。根据第四段“It is also safe for fish to eat. But despite its eco-friendly benefits, Rekrill is more expensive than common plastic due to its complex production process.(它对鱼类也是安全的。但尽管它具有环保优势,但由于其复杂的生产过程,Rekrill比普通塑料更昂贵。)”可知,因为它容易分解,有助于保护环境。所以考生可以认为Rekrill是一种环保材料。故答案填It is eco-friendly. Because it can break down easily and helps protect the environment.

When John Todd was a child, he loved to explore the woods around his house, observing how nature solved problems. A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.
The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China.
“Ecological design” is the name John gives to what he does. “Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor,” he says. “You put organisms in new relationships and observe what’s happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair.”
41.What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?
A.He enjoyed being alone. B.He was fond of traveling.
C.He longed to be a doctor. D.He had an inquiring mind.
42.Why did John put the sludge into the tanks?

43.What happened to the sludge in the eco-machine?

Charter schools operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools differ from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what to teach and how to teach it.
The “charter” is a performance contract. It establishes the goals of the school and other details like how student performance will be measured. Forty-seven million students attend traditional public schools. But more than a million students attend charter schools.
And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environmentally friendly school buildings but to also go further than that. The schools teach students to become involved in community issues that affect them and the environment. For example, young children grow crops in a school garden and learn about healthy eating. Older students help recycle waste from the cafeteria. And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.
Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. He says the plan is to also include traditional public schools as well as private schools.
Jim McGrath: “The most important thing is that every one of us — every child, every adult — has a responsibility that their action, every action we make has an effect on the earth that we live in, and that our natural resources are not unlimited, and that if we want a positive earth for future generations, we all need to make commitments to be agents of change so that we don’t destroy our natural resources.”
The Green Charter Schools Network holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota. It will include companies and organizations like Waste Management and the United States Green Building Council. We sincerely hope that their goal is to expand the movement across the country.
46.Charter schools are quite different from public ones in that _______.
A.they are operated by public money. B.they still use the traditional rules.
C.they have more freedom in management. D.they attract more students than others.
47.The Green Charter Schools Network is established to _______.
A.advise teenagers to attend charter schools B.paint the school building in the color green
C.measure the students with the same standard D.get students involved in environment friendly activities
48.The following statements about the Network are true EXCEPT that _______.
A.it only concerns the charter schools in the U.S.
B.it holds its first national conference in Minnesota.
C.it will benefit both the schools and the communities.
D.it promotes different schools to share their achievements.
49.According to Jim McGrath, _______.
A.people’s action plays little part in nature
B.natural resources are abundant for people to use
C.students should be taught to be responsible for the world
D.everyone should make efforts to change the positive nature
50.What’s the writer’s purpose of this passage?
A.To criticize the traditional education system.
B.To encourage the students to adopt healthy eating.
C.To inspire people to recycle waste from the cafeteria.
D.To arouse the schools to take action to protect the earth

One thing the tour books don’t tell you about London is that 2,000 of its residents are foxes. They ran away from the city about centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in. But now that the environment is cleaner, the foxes have come home, one of the many wild animals that have moved into urban areas around the world.
“The number and variety of wild animals in urban areas is increasing,” says Gomer Jones, president of the National Institute for Urban Wildlife, in Columbia, Maryland. A survey of the wildlife in New York’s Central Park last year tallied the species of mammals, including muskrats (麝鼠), shrews (鼩睛) and flying squirrels. A similar survey conducted in the 1890s counted only five species. One of the country’s largest populations of raccoon now lives in Washington D.C., and moose (驼鹿) are regularly seen wandering into Maine towns. Peregrine falcons (游隼) dive from the window ledges of buildings in the largest U. S. cities to prey on pigeons.
Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities. Foremost is that air and water quality in many cities has improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, leaving many animals on the edges of suburbs. In addition, urban wildlife refuges have been created. The Greater London Council last year spent £750,000 to buy land and build10 permanent wildlife refuges in the city. Over 1,000 volunteers have donated money and cleared rubble from derelict (荒废的) lots. One evening last year a fox was seen on Westminster Bridge looking up at Big Ben.
For peregrine falcons, cities are actually safer than rural cliff dwellings (悬崖栖息地). By 1970 the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because the DDT had made their eggs too thin to support life. That year, scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in cities, for cities afforded abundant food.
Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful. The trick is to create habitats where they can be self-sufficient but still be seen and appreciated. Such habitats can even be functional. In San Francisco, the local government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which ones retain (保持) the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.
51.The passage mentions a significant increase in mammal species in New York’s Central Park to _________.
A.Highlight the unexpected diversity found in small urban parks.
B.Provide evidence supporting the claim that wildlife in urban areas is increasing.
C.Contrast the wildlife success in New York with the failure in other cities.
D.Argue that shrews and flying squirrels are better adapted to cities than foxes.
52.Which of the following is NOT a reason that wildlife is returning to the cities?
A.Food is plentiful in the cities.
B.Wildlife is threatened by predators in the wild.
C.Wildlife refuges have been built in the cities
D.Air and water quality has improved in the cities
53.The underlined word “tallied” in Para.2 means _________.
A.Distinguished B.described C.counted D.excluded
54.The example of San Francisco testing rainwater basins implies that _________.
A.Cities prioritize bird attraction over clean water management:
B.Ecological benefits and practical functions cannot be achieved at the same time.
C.Wildlife habitats in cities can be designed to serve dual purposes.
D.Birds are the best indicator species for urban water cleanliness.
55.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Wildlife returning to large cities
B.Foxes returning to London
C.Wild animals living in zoos
D.A survey of wildlife in New York

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
Milan-based company Krill Design is changing the way we think about waste by creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill. The special material is biodegradable, and can be used repeatedly.
Founded in 2018, Krill uses fruit skin, orange seeds and coffee grounds collected from businesses in Italy to create their unique designs, including bookends, clocks, bowls, and lamps. Each product is made through a four-step process. “There are a lot of companies that create designs, and we want to be different,” says MarcoDi Maio, director of operations at Krill.
Krill has worked together with some well-known brands and has also joined in a Co. ffee Era project with the government of Milan to reduce coffee waste produced in three of the city's neighborhoods. Krill has made products that match the color of food waste. For example, bright orange products are from orange skin and rich dark brown products are from coffee grounds.
Rekrill is as strong as wood and breaks down safely unless it's touched by water or acidity. It is also safe for fish to eat. But despite its eco-friendly benefits, Rekrill is more expensive than common plastic due to its complex production process. However, Krill hopes that as awareness of the environmental impact of plastics grows, Rekrill will be more widely used. Krill is exploring the use of other food waste, such as eggshells and leftover tomatoes and grapes, aiming to make its production process more efficient and cost-effective.
The company believes Rekrill is the material of the future. Every small step they take toward a sustainable world contributes to a more recyclable economy and inspires others to follow suit.
56.How does the company Krill Design change the way people think about waste? (no more than 10 words)
57.How many steps does each product need before it is made? (no more than 2 words)
58.What is the disadvantage of Rekrill compared with common plastic? (no more than 5 words)
59.What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 mean? (no more than 1 word)
60.What do you think of Rekrill and explain? (no more than 20 words)

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
Milan-based company Krill Design is changing the way we think about waste by creating furniture products from a plastic-like biomaterial named Rekrill. The special material is biodegradable, and can be used repeatedly.
Founded in 2018, Krill uses fruit skin, orange seeds and coffee grounds collected from businesses in Italy to create their unique designs, including bookends, clocks, bowls, and lamps. Each product is made through a four-step process. “There are a lot of companies that create designs, and we want to be different,” says MarcoDi Maio, director of operations at Krill.
Krill has worked together with some well-known brands and has also joined in a Co. ffee Era project with the government of Milan to reduce coffee waste produced in three of the city's neighborhoods. Krill has made products that match the color of food waste. For example, bright orange products are from orange skin and rich dark brown products are from coffee grounds.
Rekrill is as strong as wood and breaks down safely unless it's touched by water or acidity. It is also safe for fish to eat. But despite its eco-friendly benefits, Rekrill is more expensive than common plastic due to its complex production process. However, Krill hopes that as awareness of the environmental impact of plastics grows, Rekrill will be more widely used. Krill is exploring the use of other food waste, such as eggshells and leftover tomatoes and grapes, aiming to make its production process more efficient and cost-effective.
The company believes Rekrill is the material of the future. Every small step they take toward a sustainable world contributes to a more recyclable economy and inspires others to follow suit.
56.How does the company Krill Design change the way people think about waste? (no more than 10 words)
57.How many steps does each product need before it is made? (no more than 2 words)

As is known to all, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places, we can see dirty rivers and the gray sky and that people have no clean water to drink, so we should do something to make a difference now.
First and foremost, we aren’t supposed to throw rubbish into rivers, which is one reason why it becomes smelly. Moreover, the habit of saving water ought to be formed in our daily lives. Last but not least, it is significant to encourage people to use more public transportation to reduce emission of waste gas.
In summary, if everyone makes contributions to protecting the environment, our country will become cleaner and nicer. Let’s join hands to build a beautiful China!
