四、阅读
第一节 阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从31--45各题所给的A、B、C、D项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
(A)
No matter who we are, where we are, or what we do, we cannot live without water. It is the source of all life and we need it every day. But in truth we’re facing serious water problems.
Although water covers 71 percent of the earth’s surface, we can only use a very small amount of it. Only about 3 percent of the world’s water is fresh water. It’s in lakes, rivers and underground. Today, there are over 663 million people living without a safe water supply close to home, according to the United Nations.
To remind people of the importance of water, the UN first set up World Water Day in 1993. It is held on March 22nd each year. And this year’s theme is “wastewater”.
According to the UN, wastewater problems make water shortages even more serious. Most of the wastewater from our homes, cities, industry and agriculture flows directly back to nature. Instead of letting it pollute the environment, the industries need to treat it first.
China takes actions to deal with water problems too. From March 22nd to 28th is the China Water Week, during which the Chinese government promotes the new policy of “river chiefs” to the public.
Just as every province, city and county has a leader, every river will have a chief too. China passed the policy at the end of 2016 and carried it out nationwide in 2019. Local government heads will be river chiefs. They will be responsible for all rivers and lakes in their regions. They need to make sure that industries treat the wastewater before it goes into nature. They also need to clean up the polluted waters, like the blue algae (蓝藻) pollution in Taihu Lake, Jiangsu.
31. From the second paragraph, we know that ________.
A. wastewater problems make water shortage even more serious
B. fresh water can be found in lots of places like lakes, rivers and underground
C. people can live without water for a long time
D. there’s much water on the earth so we can use as much as we want
32. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “source”?
A. 演变 B. 意义 C. 源泉 D. 材料
33. ________ is set up to remind people of the importance of water.
A. World Oceans Day B. World Health Day
C. World Environment Day D. World Water Day
34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Most of the wastewater flows directly back to nature.
B. Wastewater flows directly to our homes.
C. The policy “river chiefs” was carried out nationwide before 2016.
D. Industries have done something to treat the wastewater before it goes into nature.
(B)
Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and plentiful power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Something shows that windmills (风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
For many centuries, people used windmills to make wheat into flour (面粉) or get water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in faraway areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were hardly used.
During the 1970s, people started becoming more concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would run out one day. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind
35. From the first paragraph, what can we know about wind and windmills?
A. Wind is the cleanest, richest and newest power source.
B. Windmills were first introduced to Middle East during 1100s.
C. Windmills were used in ancient Iran in the 7th Century BC.
D. Armies used windmills in Europe and the Middle East.
36. What did people use windmills to do for many centuries?
A. To help make flour from wheat. B. To help get water from the river.
C. To help make electric lights. D. To help dig wells in faraway areas.
37. Why was wind rediscovered during the 1970s?
A. Because coal and gas had been used up. B. Because it was cheaper to produce electricity.
C. Because it’s cleaner than other sources. D. Because it could only be used in faraway areas.
38. What is the best title for this passenger?
A. The clean and rich wind power B. Windmills were used everywhere
C. The development of the wind power D. Windmills and the heavy pollution
(C)
Clean electricity is the power of the future, but engineers are facing a big challenge. How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining? In some cases, the answer will be batteries; but in other cases, it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.
Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth. It’s always been everywhere since the beginning of time. Nobody knew about it until around 1700, when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in his garden. Newton asked himself the question: “Why did that apple fall to the ground?” And he soon worked out the answer. Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so, because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the center of the earth. Newton decided to call this force “gravity”, a word that then just meant “weight”.
Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries, long before Newton first explained it. In particular, they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate (灌溉) fields and bring water to cities. They knew that water would flow downhill, but never uphill, so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.
In 1907, engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose: to store energy. They pumped (用泵抽送) water up a hill, where they stored it in a lake. Then when they needed more electricity, they let the water come back down the hill, driving electric turbines (涡轮机) as it fell. The idea was just so simple, and it is now used in many parts of the world. However, the problem is that “pumped storage” hydro schemes (抽水蓄能水电方案) can’t be built just anywhere, as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.
Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity. Gravity-stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery-stored electricity, but even so it is not cheap. In order to make gravity more effective, we would need to increase its force—and that, of course, is quite impossible. Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy, and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air... and even sand!
Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time, as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power. We need clean electricity 24 hours a day, not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.
39. The word “abundant” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A. expensive B. environmental C. famous D. plentiful
40. From the passage, we can know that ________.
A. gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity
B. “pumped storage” hydro schemes can be built on small hills
C. engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creatively
D. experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force
41. Why does the author write this passage?
A. To tell the story of finding gravity.
B. To show the importance of gravity.
C. To call on people to use clean electricity.
D. To introduce a good way to store electricity.
(D)

第一节 阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从31--45各题所给的A、B、C、D项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
(A)
No matter who we are, where we are, or what we do, we cannot live without water. It is the source of all life and we need it every day. But in truth we’re facing serious water problems.
Although water covers 71 percent of the earth’s surface, we can only use a very small amount of it. Only about 3 percent of the world’s water is fresh water. It’s in lakes, rivers and underground. Today, there are over 663 million people living without a safe water supply close to home, according to the United Nations.
To remind people of the importance of water, the UN first set up World Water Day in 1993. It is held on March 22nd each year. And this year’s theme is “wastewater”.
According to the UN, wastewater problems make water shortages even more serious. Most of the wastewater from our homes, cities, industry and agriculture flows directly back to nature. Instead of letting it pollute the environment, the industries need to treat it first.
China takes actions to deal with water problems too. From March 22nd to 28th is the China Water Week, during which the Chinese government promotes the new policy of “river chiefs” to the public.
Just as every province, city and county has a leader, every river will have a chief too. China passed the policy at the end of 2016 and carried it out nationwide in 2019. Local government heads will be river chiefs. They will be responsible for all rivers and lakes in their regions. They need to make sure that industries treat the wastewater before it goes into nature. They also need to clean up the polluted waters, like the blue algae (蓝藻) pollution in Taihu Lake, Jiangsu.
31. From the second paragraph, we know that ________.
A. wastewater problems make water shortage even more serious
B. fresh water can be found in lots of places like lakes, rivers and underground
C. people can live without water for a long time
D. there’s much water on the earth so we can use as much as we want
32. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “source”?
A. 演变 B. 意义 C. 源泉 D. 材料
33. ________ is set up to remind people of the importance of water.
A. World Oceans Day B. World Health Day
C. World Environment Day D. World Water Day
34. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Most of the wastewater flows directly back to nature.
B. Wastewater flows directly to our homes.
C. The policy “river chiefs” was carried out nationwide before 2016.
D. Industries have done something to treat the wastewater before it goes into nature.
【答案】31. B 32. C 33. D 34. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了全球面临的水资源短缺问题、世界水日的设立以及中国为治理水污染推行的“河长制”政策。
【31题详解】
根据文章第二段“Only about 3 percent of the world’s water is fresh water. It’s in lakes, rivers and underground.”可知,虽然淡水很少,但它确实存在于湖泊、河流和地下这些地方。
【32题详解】
根据第一段“No matter who we are... we cannot live without water. It is the source of all life...”可知,没有水我们无法生存,水是生命的起源。因此“source”意为“源泉、源头”。
【33题详解】
根据文章第三段“To remind people of the importance of water, the UN first set up World Water Day in 1993.”可知,设立世界水日是为了提醒人们水的重要性。
【34题详解】
根据文章第四段“Most of the wastewater from our homes, cities, industry and agriculture flows directly back to nature.”可知,自家庭、城市、工业和农业的大部分废水直接流回大自然。
(B)
Think about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and plentiful power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Something shows that windmills (风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
For many centuries, people used windmills to make wheat into flour (面粉) or get water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in faraway areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were hardly used.
During the 1970s, people started becoming more concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would run out one day. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind
35. From the first paragraph, what can we know about wind and windmills?
A. Wind is the cleanest, richest and newest power source.
B. Windmills were first introduced to Middle East during 1100s.
C. Windmills were used in ancient Iran in the 7th Century BC.
D. Armies used windmills in Europe and the Middle East.
36. What did people use windmills to do for many centuries?
A. To help make flour from wheat. B. To help get water from the river.
C. To help make electric lights. D. To help dig wells in faraway areas.
37. Why was wind rediscovered during the 1970s?
A. Because coal and gas had been used up. B. Because it was cheaper to produce electricity.
C. Because it’s cleaner than other sources. D. Because it could only be used in faraway areas.
38. What is the best title for this passenger?
A. The clean and rich wind power B. Windmills were used everywhere
C. The development of the wind power D. Windmills and the heavy pollution
【答案】35. C 36. A 37. C 38. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了人类利用风能的历史、风车的用途演变以及现代重新重视风能的原因。
【35题详解】
根据第一段“Something shows that windmills (风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC.”可知,风车在公元前7世纪的古伊朗被使用。
【36题详解】
根据第二段“For many centuries, people used windmills to make wheat into flour (面粉) or get water from deep underground.”可知,人们用风车把小麦制成面粉。
【37题详解】
根据第三段“During the 1970s, people started becoming more cared about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity... Then, wind was rediscovered...”可知,风能比煤和天然气更清洁,因此被重新发现。

文章从古代风车的起源讲起,到后来用于磨面、抽水,再到发电,最后讲现代对风能的重新利用,主要讲述了风能(及风车)的发展历程。
(C)
Clean electricity is the power of the future, but engineers are facing a big challenge. How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining? In some cases, the answer will be batteries; but in other cases, it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.
Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth. It’s always been everywhere since the beginning of time. Nobody knew about it until around 1700, when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in his garden. Newton asked himself the question: “Why did that apple fall to the ground?” And he soon worked out the answer. Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so, because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the center of the earth. Newton decided to call this force “gravity”, a word that then just meant “weight”.
Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries, long before Newton first explained it. In particular, they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate (灌溉) fields and bring water to cities. They knew that water would flow downhill, but never uphill, so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.
In 1907, engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose: to store energy. They pumped (用泵抽送) water up a hill, where they stored it in a lake. Then when they needed more electricity, they let the water come back down the hill, driving electric turbines (涡轮机) as it fell. The idea was just so simple, and it is now used in many parts of the world. However, the problem is that “pumped storage” hydro schemes (抽水蓄能水电方案) can’t be built just anywhere, as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.
Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity. Gravity-stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery-stored electricity, but even so it is not cheap. In order to make gravity more effective, we would need to increase its force—and that, of course, is quite impossible. Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy, and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air... and even sand!
Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time, as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power. We need clean electricity 24 hours a day, not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.
39. The word “abundant” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A. expensive B. environmental C. famous D. plentiful
40. From the passage, we can know that ________.
A. gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity
B. “pumped storage” hydro schemes can be built on small hills
C. engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creatively
D. experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force
41. Why does the author write this passage?
A. To tell the story of finding gravity.
B. To show the importance of gravity.
C. To call on people to use clean electricity.
D. To introduce a good way to store electricity.
【答案】39. D 40. C 41. D
