The 70-year-old retired teacher’s home on the small Caribbean island nation of Dominica was mostly wiped out by hurricane Maria six years ago. Six years after hurricane Maria,Dominicans like Margarite August still haven’t been able to rehabilitate their homes. August is not alone.Since Maria,the government of Dominica has built 7,000 new homes—about a quarter of its housing stock—with materials to fight another Category 5 hurricane.They’ve also relocated two communities.But an untold number of the island’s 70,000 or so residents are like August,rebuilding their homes in any way they can afford. Hurricane Maria is often referred to as a once-in-a-lifetime disaster.Scientists put much of the blame on warming ocean temperatures that could make frequent(频繁) storms like it. Maria damaged a terrible 95% of Dominica’s housing stock and 226% of the nation’s GDP.Before the storm,the country’s economy had long struggled since its independence from Great Britain in 1978.Unlike its more famous touristy neighbors along the chain of eastern Caribbean islands it lies on,Dominica is more known for its rugged mountains and jungles(丛林) than white sandy beaches. The jungle mountains that crash down to the coast are beautiful but disasters visit easily.“I don’t think anybody ever got over Maria,” says Christine John of the Dominica Red Cross.“There are a lot of persons today—if it just starts to rain outside,they get anxious.” 1.What does the underlined word “rehabilitate” in paragraph 3 mean? A.Rebuild.　　 B.Leave. C.Decorate. D.Buy. 2.What is the main cause of frequent extreme storms according to scientists? A.Over-farming. B.Loss of the land. C.The disappearance of the forests. D.Climate change. 3.What is Dominica known for according to the text? A.Its good economy. B.Its architecture. C.Its mountains and jungles. D.Its sandy beaches. 4.Why are Dominicans nervous when it rains? A.They have to stay bored at home. B.Their houses are easy to take in water. C.They don’t know how to make umbrellas. D.They are afraid of another disaster like Maria. B Begun 30 years ago,the Kubuqi desert greening project has succeeded in not only controlling the fast growth of the seventh-largest desert in China,about the size of Kuwait,but also turning about 6,000 square kilometers of the desert—one-third of it—green. The desert lies about 800 kilometers to the west of Beijing in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region(自治区) and the greening efforts have also controlled desertification(沙漠化) in the rest of the area. The project,which began about 30 years ago,can be looked to as an example of efforts to advance green development,in order to create harmony between humans and nature,and leave a better environment for future generations. The success of the project,which has been praised by the UN Environment Programme as an “eco-pioneer”,sets an example for successful desertification control and ecosystem improvement based on effective government policies,supported by investment(投资) in the eco-industry and combined with the efforts of local farmers.These three aspects are key to the success of the “Kubuqi model”. Elion,a private ecology(生态) and investment company,has invested about 38 billion yuan ($5.82 billion) in the Kubuqi desert-greening project since 1988 helping to lift about 102,000 local farmers out of poverty.For example,the locals grow a drought-tolerant(耐旱) plant,Chinese licorice,which is the most used herb in traditional Chinese medicine.The plant helps enrich the desert soil,with the bacteria around the roots of the plants producing nitrogen(氮气).Besides,Cistanche,another type of drought-tolerant herb,was introduced after the successful planting of licorice.Under the company’s guidance and with the local government’s support,the local people benefit from the “environmental wealth”. More companies should be encouraged to apply the “Kubuqi model” in other desert control projects in Inner Mongolia and neighboring Gansu Province,where the climate conditions are similar but not quite the same,so as to further gain experience and enrich the model in practice.Showing it can be successfully applied in other areas will help promote the model worldwide. 5.What do we know about the Kubuqi greening project? A.It increases the areas of desert. B.It has turned all of the desert green. C.It has achieved satisfying results. D.It is applied all over the world. 6.Which is NOT the reason for the success of the “Kubuqi model”? A.Efforts of local farmers. B.Government policies’ support. C.Investment in the eco-industry. D.Help from the UN Environment Programme. 7.How does the author develop paragraph 5? A.By following the time order. B.By giving examples. C.By giving a definition(定义). D.By making comparisons. 8.What is the author’s attitude towards the greening project? A.Negative. B.Doubtful. C.Supportive. D.Indifferent. Ⅵ.七选五 (2025江西九江高一期末) Copenhagen is a beautiful city that attracts a large number of tourists,especially during the summer.While tourism is great for the economy,it also has an impact on environment.In order to change that,tourists can participate in green activities like picking up litter,using public transport,or biking around the city.　1　  This project is called CopenPay and it is being trialed this summer.　2　 The project was introduced by Copenhagen’s official tourism organization to get tourists to act more sustainably.While many tourists express the desire for eco-friendly travel,very few have changed their behavior.  　3　 It will reward green actions including taking part in clean-ups or volunteering at an urban farm.The project is trust-based,so it is unlikely that the venues will ask for proof but some may request a photo of you doing a green activity or a train ticket.  There are 24 participants in the pilot program,including museums and urban experiences for tourists to participate in.There are several places offering free ice cream or coffee for taking public transport.Visitors to the National Gallery who bring plastic waste can participate in a workshop to turn the trash into a piece of art.　4　 There are free tours at the Cisternerne underground art hall,if you walk or bike to the venue.  Maybe none of these small activities will make a huge impact on the environment.However,small things do make a difference.　5　 Besides,tourists can bring an important souvenir home from their vacation.  A.They will change people’s attitudes. B.Few tourists show interest in this project. C.Tourists can choose to take public transport. D.CopenPay hopes to help bridge the gap in this way. E.It was designed to help reduce the environmental costs. F.They will be rewarded with food or souvenirs after doing these. G.Tourists can help care for the gardens at a museum for free admission. 答案 Ⅰ.1.crowded　2.frightened　3.observation　4.eruption　5.shocked　6.survival　7.curiously　8.equally　9.on　10.from Ⅱ.1.were equal to　2.be curious about　3.turn my back on　4.In the end　5.All at once　6.on the edge of　7.in the direction of　8.pick up　9.To some extent　10.were covered with Ⅲ.1.when　2.where　3.why　4.when　5.where　6.why　7.when　8.where　9.where　10.when Ⅳ.1.It took the workers nearly a month　2.the moment he arrives　3.The higher the ground is　4.The reason why I made so much progress was that　5.with all the lights on Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了飓风玛丽亚对加勒比海小国多米尼加造成了严重破坏,岛上的很多居民至今仍然无法重建家园。 1.A　词义猜测题。根据第一段“Every year the start of the Atlantic hurricane season is another reminder for Margarite August that she still doesn’t have a roof.”以及第四段中的“But an untold number of the island’s 70,000 or so residents are like August,rebuilding their homes in any way they can afford.”可知,奥古斯特的家被飓风毁了,但是她无法重建家园。故画线词意思是“重建”。故选A项。 2.D　细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Scientists put much of the blame on warming ocean temperatures that could make frequent(频繁的) storms like it.”可知,科学家认为气候变暖是引起极端风暴频发的主要原因。故选D项。 3.C　细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Unlike its more famous touristy neighbors along the chain of eastern Caribbean islands it lies on,Dominica is more known for its rugged mountains and jungles(丛林) than white sandy beaches.”可知,Dominica以高山和丛林闻名。故选C项。 4.D　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“‘I don’t think anybody ever got over Maria,’ says Christine John of the Dominica Red Cross.‘There are a lot of persons today—if it just starts to rain outside,they get anxious.’”可推知,Dominicans谈雨色变主要是因为他们还没从风暴Maria带来的阴影中走出来。故选D项。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍库布齐沙漠绿化工程。 5.C　细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,库布其沙漠绿化工程始于30年前,它不仅成功地控制了中国第七大沙漠的快速扩张,而且还使大约6000平方千米的沙漠变成了绿色。由此可知,库布其沙漠绿化工程取得了满意的结果。故选C项。 6.D　细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知,该项目的成功被联合国环境规划署誉为“生态先锋”,是有效的政府政策、生态产业投资的支持和当地农民的努力相结合,为成功控制荒漠化和改善生态系统树立了榜样。这三个方面是“库布其模式”成功的关键。由此可知,联合国环境规划署的帮助不是“库布其模式”成功的因素。故选D项。 7.B　推理判断题。根据第五段第二句中的“For example”和第四句中的“Besides”可知,作者通过举例来展开第五段。故选B项。 8.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,鼓励更多企业将“库布其模式”应用于气候条件相似但又不完全相同的内蒙古及邻省甘肃其他治沙项目中,进一步积累经验,丰富实践模式。证明它可以成功地应用于其他领域,将有助于在世界范围内推广这种模式。由此可知,作者对这项绿化工程持支持态度。故选C项。 Ⅵ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了哥本哈根市正在通过一些奖励措施鼓励游客采取环保行动。 1.F　前文“While tourism is great for the economy,it also has an impact on environment.In order to change that,tourists can participate in green activities like picking up litter,using public transport,or biking around the city.”提到为改变旅游业对环境的破坏,游客被组织参与绿色活动,因此F项符合语境,说明游客在完成任务后可以得到奖励,承接前文,其中的They指代前一句中的tourists,these指代前一句中的green activities。故选F项。 2.E　前文“This project is called CopenPay and it is being trialed this summer.”提到该项目的名称和试用时间,后文“The project was introduced by Copenhagen’s official tourism organization to get tourists to act more sustainably.”进一步介绍该项目的组织者和目的,因此E项符合语境,说明该项目的宗旨,承前启后。故选E项。 3.D　后文“It will reward green actions including taking part in clean-ups or volunteering at an urban farm.”提到该项目会奖励绿色行动,因此D项符合语境,指出该项目希望实现的目标,后文是介绍目标实现的方式,其中的CopenPay是后一句中It指代的对象。故选D项。 4.G　前文“Visitors to the National Gallery who bring plastic waste can participate in a workshop to turn the trash into a piece of art.”介绍国家美术馆鼓励的绿色活动,后文“There are free tours at the Cisternerne underground art hall,if you walk or bike to the venue.”介绍Cisternerne地下艺术大厅鼓励的绿色活动,因此G项符合语境,介绍博物馆鼓励的绿色活动,和前后句是并列关系,都在列举该项目的不同参与方提供的绿色活动。故选G项。 5.A　前文“However,small things do make a difference.”肯定小事情的重要价值,后文“Besides,tourists can bring an important souvenir home from their vacation.”指出另一好处是得到纪念品,因此A项符合语境,指出一个好处是改变人们的态度,承接前文,后文和选项是递进关系,其中的They指代前一句中的small things。故选A项。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
