Huang was born in Tainan in 1963, but his father’s work took the family to Thailand when he was a child. Then, when Huang was 9, his parents sent him and his brother to the United States due to political tensions in Thailand. Unexpectedly, Huang was sent to a reform school for troubled youth. This may not sound beneficial, but Huang appreciated it. He says, “We worked really hard, and the kids were really tough.” The toughness and work ethic (道德) he developed have served him well. After graduating from college, Huang earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering. While being a student, he worked as a waiter. Before he took the job, he was very shy, but waiting tables forced him to speak to people. That helped him to get over his shyness. He also learned the importance of admitting mistakes. On his 30th birthday, Huang and two engineering friends founded his company, NVIDIA. They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像).So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.The first application of this technology was to video games, but it has also been used in other areas. Recently, GPUs have played a key role in the development of AI. Huang’s success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure. This requires humility (谦逊) and honesty, which enables him to recognize and correct mistakes. Huang encourages these attitudes in his employees, which are partly responsible for the company’s success. Today, at the age of 62, Huang is the longest-serving CEO of a major technology company. He does not intend to stop anytime soon. 4. How did Huang react to being admitted to a reform school? A. He was shocked at first but settled for it. B. He took it seriously and made full use of it. C. He set a goal to get prepared for his tech career. D. He regretted the reform school but didn’t say so. 5. Why did Huang and his friends decide to develop the GPU? A. Because video game companies placed a large order of it. B. Because AI was in great need of the hardware at that time. C. Because stronger graphics hardware might be needed soon. D. Because no other groups were developing similar technology, 6. Which may replace the underlined part “attributed to” in paragraph 6? A. due to B. essential to C. identical to D. compared to 7. What is the text mainly about? A. GPU technology’s invention and wide application. B. Huang’s experiences and qualities leading to his success. C. NVIDIA’s development and impact on the tech industry. D. The significance of hard work and risk-taking for a firm. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了黄仁勋的成长经历、求学过程、创业历程以及他成功的原因，展现了他凭借自身努力、坚韧品质和勇于冒险的精神，从困境中崛起，最终成为科技行业重要公司领导者的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Unexpectedly, Huang was sent to a reform school for troubled youth. This may not sound beneficial, but Huang appreciated it. He says, ‘We worked really hard, and the kids were really tough.’ The toughness and work ethic (道德) he developed have served him well.” (出乎意料的是，黄被送进了一所为问题青少年开办的感化学校。这听起来可能没什么好处，但黄很感激。他说：“我们真的很努力，孩子们也很坚强。”他培养出的坚韧和工作道德对他很有帮助。)”可知，黄仁勋认真对待进入感化学校这件事，并且充分利用了这段经历来培养自己的品质。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像). So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.(他们认为计算机可能很快就需要更强大的技术来显示图像。因此，英伟达在1999年生产了这样的硬件：图形处理单元（GPU）。)”可知，黄仁勋和他的朋友决定开发GPU是因为他们认为不久后可能需要更强大的图形硬件。故选C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段“Huang’s success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure.”(黄仁勋的成功attributed to许多因素，包括努力工作和拒绝放弃。但最重要的特点是他愿意冒险并从失败中学习。)以及后文对成功原因的阐述可知，“attributed to”意思是“归因于”，与“due to”意思相近。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章首先介绍了黄仁勋的出生和成长经历，包括被送到感化学校以及在求学过程中的各种锻炼；接着讲述了他和朋友创立英伟达公司以及开发GPU的过程；最后重点强调了他成功的原因，如努力工作、拒绝放弃、愿意冒险和从失败中学习等。所以文章主要是关于黄仁勋的经历和导致他成功的品质。故选B项。 C India has been one of the world’s largest producers and consumers of wheat and rice. “We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. “We really need these seeds to deal with these multiple issues created by global warming,” said Ashok Kumar Singh, former director of New Delhi-based Indian Agriculture Research Institute and a scientist who specializes in plant genetics and breeding. Singh has overseen the creation of multiple successful rice varieties to resist various plant diseases. And his organization, with funding from the government, has released more than 2,000 seed varieties in the last decade. “Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. 8. What can we learn from P. Ravinder Reddy’s words? A. He has been a soldier for sixteen years. B. He has an approach to helping seeds grow. C. The climate in India has become extreme. D. It is easy to predict when it will rain in India. 9. What is a consequence of applying natural farming? A. Yield decrease. B. Energy shortage. C. Land loss. D. Environmental harm. 10. What does the author want to show by mentioning 700 million people? A. The rising population around the world. B. The right way of keeping a healthy diet. C. The importance of a United Nations report. D. The necessity for developing tougher seeds. 11. What is Aditi Mukherji’s suggestion for the governments? A. Training their farmers. B. Creating more jobs. C. Raising the price of seeds. D. Ensuring personal security. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。全球气候变暖迫使各国政府不断开发更适应气候变化的种子。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中““We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” (“我们过去知道什么时候会下雨，会下雨多久，我们就会据此播种，”P. Ravinder Reddy说。他曾是一名印度士兵，16年前开始在自家的土地上种地。“现在，很多时候种子不生长，要么是因为雨水太多，要么是因为完全干燥。”)”可推断，印度的气候变得极端。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. (一些人正在采取所谓的自然农业技术，比如在树木和其他植物旁边种植作物，这些植物可以保护作物免受风和一些极端天气的影响，以应对气候变化。但这可能意味着减产，因此印度政府正在推广使用不会减产的新品种水稻种子。)”可知，实施自然农耕会导致产量下降。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. (根据联合国今年早些时候发布的一份报告，去年有7亿多人挨饿，全球三分之一以上的人口无法负担健康的饮食。除印度外，包括美国政府项目和私人资助项目在内的其他项目正在帮助开发能够适应非洲、中美洲和其他亚洲国家气候变化的新种子。)”可推断，作者在第三段提及遭受饥饿之苦的7亿人口是为了表明培育更顽强的种子的必要性。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. (国际农业研究协商小组气候变化适应和减缓主任、几份联合国气候报告的作者Aditi Mukherji说：“确保农民了解这类种子，能够负担得起它们，并接受正确使用它们的培训，这与创造种子同样重要。”)”可知，Aditi Mukherji建议各国政府培训他们的农民。故选A。 D Global warming is mainly caused by the increased emission of greenhouse gases, in particular carbon dioxide produced by power stations that use huge amounts of fossil fuel to supply us with electricity. These greenhouse gases have an average lifetime in the atmosphere of 50 to 200 years. This means that even if we stopped the emission of greenhouse gases completely tomorrow, global warming would still continue for decades to come. The International Energy Agency(IEA) records the energy consumption worldwide and produces a forecast for the next 25 years. In their last energy outlook published in 2006, IEA predicted a strong increase of the carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 as a consequence of the increasing demand for energy worldwide. Additionally, IEA investigated to which extent the above mentioned emissions of CO₂ could be prevented if politics applied strict measures. One of many measures investigated was massive facilitation and stimulation for building additional nuclear power plants (核电站). Nuclear energy is used to generate electrical power without any sort of fossil fuel involved in the process. Therefore, CO₂ emission can indeed be reduced, if electricity power plants driven by fossil fuels were replaced by nuclear power plants. Yet, the application of nuclear power is highly risky and problematic; and so the problem of CO2 emissions must not be looked at independently of all other risks and problems. Some critics claim that nuclear energy’s emissions can compare to those of fossil-fuels’ when the life cycle impacts of nuclear power are considered. Although nuclear power plants do not release greenhouse gases when generating electricity, certain processes used to build and fuel the plants do, such as transporting the fuel to the plants in trucks. However, dozens of studies show that nuclear plants’ life cycle impacts are actually more comparable to those of renewable energy, such as wind and solar, and far less than those of coal-fired or natural gas-fired power plants. In the end we can say that nuclear energy could significantly contribute to reducing the cause of global warming. Having said that, it can also be a highly risky option if we shut the eyes to the many risks of nuclear power. 12. What can be inferred about greenhouse gases from paragraph 1? A. They can be restricted within a short time. B. They will reduce people’s average lifetime. C. They will keep increasing for decades to come. D. They have a lasting impact on global warming. 13. What is the purpose of the IEA’s investigation? A. To analyze the impact of global warming. B. To identify ways to reduce CO₂ emissions. C. To predict future energy consumption worldwide. D. To promote construction of nuclear power plants. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards nuclear energy? A. Tolerant. B. Objective. C. Disapproving. D. Conservative. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Solutions to Dealing with CO₂ Emissions B. IEA Energy Outlook for Decades to Come C. Is Nuclear Energy the Answer to Global Warming? D. How Can Human Beings Survive Global Warming? 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章探讨全球变暖与温室气体排放，聚焦核能在减少排放、缓解变暖方面的作用及风险，提出核能是否是应对之策的疑问 。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“This means that even if we stopped the emission of greenhouse gases completely tomorrow, global warming would still continue for decades to come.(这意味着，即使我们明天完全停止排放温室气体，全球变暖仍将在未来几十年继续)”可知，即使不再排放温室气体，全球变暖还会持续几十年。由此推知，温室气体对全球变暖有着持久的影响。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Additionally, IEA investigated to which extent the above mentioned emissions of CO₂ could be prevented if politics applied strict measures.(此外，国际能源署调查了如果各国政府采取严格措施，上述二氧化碳排放可以在多大程度上得到预防)”可知，国际能源署调查的目的是确定减少二氧化碳排放的方法。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In the end we can say that nuclear energy could significantly contribute to reducing the cause of global warming. Having said that, it can also be a highly risky option if we shut the eyes to the many risks of nuclear power.(最后，我们可以说，核能可以显著地有助于减少全球变暖的原因。话虽如此，如果我们对核能的许多风险视而不见，它也可能是一个风险极高的选择)”可知，作者既提到了核能有助于减少全球变暖的积极作用，又指出了忽视核能风险的危险性。由此推知，作者对核能的态度是客观的。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讨论了全球变暖是由温室气体排放增加引起的，为了减少二氧化碳排放，国际能源署进行了调查，其中提到建设核电站这一措施，接着分析了核能在减少全球变暖方面的作用以及存在的风险，所以文章主要围绕核能是否是解决全球变暖问题的答案展开讨论。由此可知，Is Nuclear Energy the Answer to Global Warming?最适合作本文最佳标题。故选C项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Navigating the teenage years can be both exciting and overwhelming.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】restricting 【解析】 【详解】句意：因此发起了一项倡议，“清理”运动被列入政府议程，其中包括限制大型车辆穿过村庄。including是介词，后接动词 -ing 形式作宾语，restricting在这里作宾语。 38. ________ (abandon) to computer games, I performed extremely badly in the end-of-term examination. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】Abandoned 【解析】 【详解】句意：由于沉迷于电脑游戏，我期末考试考得非常差。“abandon oneself to”是固定短语，表示“沉溺于”；此处作原因状语，用非谓语形式，abandon与其逻辑主语I之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动；句首单词首字母大写。 39. ______(advertise) persuade us that newer is better and that we will be happier with the latest products. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】Advertisements 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：广告让我们相信越新的就是更好的，用最新的产品我们会更快乐。分析句子可知，空后persuade为谓语动词，设空处应填名词做主语，谓语动词一般现在时没有使用单三形式，则主语应为名词复数，所给词是动词“做广告”，结合句意应填advertisements。且位于句首。故填 Advertisements。 40.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】polishing 【解析】 【详解】句意：我的老师花了半个小时润色我的论文。“spend +时间+(in) doing sth.”为固定搭配，意为“花费时间做某事”，这里in可以省略 ，所以要用polish的动名词形式polishing。 44.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】has been studying 【解析】 【详解】句意：他已经学习三个小时了。我真希望他能尽快休息一下。此空考查谓语动词，主语He与study为主动关系，时间状语for three hours是现在完成进行时的标志，强调动作从过去持续到现在且仍在进行，主语He为单数，所以应填has been studying。 46.

Enjoying a swim at their local beach was once a daily pleasure for them. But when Melati was fifteen, and Isabel just ten, the sisters started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters near their borne. More often than not, plastic bags would be around them as they swam and some were scattered on the beach. They got really upset about that. Melati didn’t think much about it until one day her teacher gave a lesson on some world heroes. Each of those people had sparked movements of positive changes in the world. They believed in the impact they could have and they did inspire more people to do something meaningful. After school, Melati walked home slowly in silence, concerned about the vast amount of plastic rubbish on the beach. The heroes crossed her mind. If they could do it, we could do it too, she thought. The idea lit her up. She couldn’t wait to share what she thought with Isabel and quickened her pace. “So many plastic bags around! The beach is dirty and messy! It’s so terrible! We have lost the clean and beautiful beach. Can’t we do something to get it back?” Melati said heartily. Isabel felt a bit puzzled at what to do, but she also had a strong desire to do something. Picturing a beach as fascinating as before in mind, the pair jumped with joy. They talked a lot, anxious to know how Dad and Mom would respond to their ideas. That night when the family sat by the dinner table, the sisters eagerly got their ideas across. While Mom and Dad listened to the girls carefully, their eyes shone. “How amazing that would be! We are so proud of you!” Dad exclaimed. Mom came up, gave them a thumb up and hugged the sisters. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Melati and Isabel decided to make a positive impact straight away. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One month later, Melati received a call from the local newspaper. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Melati and Isabel decided to make a positive impact straight away. They took advantage of their spare time to pick up rubbish on the beach. However, it was soon that they realized that they couldn't solve the problem on their own for there was so much plastic. After discussions and preparations, they started an organization to spread their idea among youth, involving more youths in the movement, which proved to be a hit. More and more teenagers took part. In a month, they altogether collected and recycled 2.5 tons of plastic, recovering the beautiful beach. One month later, Melati received a call from the local newspaper. The two girls were invited to an interview in which they were asked what inspired them to start the organization, what the biggest challenges are and what advice they have for young people who want to make changes in this world. They said a team is what keeps them going on the challenging days and added, “keeping our team engaged and motivated has been a challenge and we are happy to have a positive influence.” Melati and Isabel are heroes who make a big difference to our world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了两个女孩非常喜欢在自己家附近的海边游泳，后来发现海滩上的塑料垃圾太多了，再也不想去游泳了，心情很不好。后来课上老师讲到英雄人物，他们可以对世界起到正面影响，并激励到身边的人，两个女孩想到自己也可以去做一些事情。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“梅拉蒂和伊莎贝尔决定立即产生积极的影响。”可知，第一段可描写两个女孩采取行动去改善沙滩的状况，并发动身边的年轻人参与并创建组织，及他们的成果。 ②由第二段首句内容“一个月后，梅拉蒂接到了当地一家报社的电话。”可知，第二段可描写他们的组织规模不断扩大，在当地造成影响，接受报社采访。 2.续写线索：去行动改变沙滩状况——创建组织——成果——接受采访——采访内容——谈感想 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①利用：take advantage of/make use of/employ ②解决：solve/address/find a solution for ③参与： take apart/ get involved 情绪类 ①受鼓舞的，激励的：motivated/inspired ②积极：positive /active 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

B Jensen Huang has worked hard, overcome challenges and used his life experiences to build one of the most important tech companies. Huang was born in Tainan in 1963, but his father’s work took the family to Thailand when he was a child. Then, when Huang was 9, his parents sent him and his brother to the United States due to political tensions in Thailand. Unexpectedly, Huang was sent to a reform school for troubled youth. This may not sound beneficial, but Huang appreciated it. He says, “We worked really hard, and the kids were really tough.” The toughness and work ethic (道德) he developed have served him well. After graduating from college, Huang earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering. While being a student, he worked as a waiter. Before he took the job, he was very shy, but waiting tables forced him to speak to people. That helped him to get over his shyness. He also learned the importance of admitting mistakes. On his 30th birthday, Huang and two engineering friends founded his company, NVIDIA. They thought it was likely that computers would soon need more powerful technology to display graphics (图像).So NVIDIA produced such hardware: the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.The first application of this technology was to video games, but it has also been used in other areas. Recently, GPUs have played a key role in the development of AI. Huang’s success is attributed to a number of factors including hard work and refusal to give up. But the most important characteristic is his willingness to take risks and learn from failure. This requires humility (谦逊) and honesty, which enables him to recognize and correct mistakes. Huang encourages these attitudes in his employees, which are partly responsible for the company’s success. Today, at the age of 62, Huang is the longest-serving CEO of a major technology company. He does not intend to stop anytime soon. 4. How did Huang react to being admitted to a reform school? A. He was shocked at first but settled for it. B. He took it seriously and made full use of it. C. He set a goal to get prepared for his tech career. D. He regretted the reform school but didn’t say so. 5. Why did Huang and his friends decide to develop the GPU? A. Because video game companies placed a large order of it. B. Because AI was in great need of the hardware at that time. C. Because stronger graphics hardware might be needed soon. D. Because no other groups were developing similar technology, 6. Which may replace the underlined part “attributed to” in paragraph 6? A. due to B. essential to C. identical to D. compared to 7. What is the text mainly about? A. GPU technology’s invention and wide application. B. Huang’s experiences and qualities leading to his success. C. NVIDIA’s development and impact on the tech industry. D. The significance of hard work and risk-taking for a firm. C India has been one of the world’s largest producers and consumers of wheat and rice. “We used to know when it would rain and for how long, and we planted our seeds (种子) accordingly,” said P. Ravinder Reddy, a former Indian soldier who turned to farming on his family’s land 16 years ago. “Now, many times the seeds don’t grow either because there’s too much rain or it’s completely dry.” Some are taking to what is called natural farming — techniques like planting crops alongside trees and other plants that can protect crops from wind and some extreme weather— to deal with climate change. But that can mean reduced yields (产量), so India’s government is promoting the use of new varieties of rice seeds that don’ t decrease yields. According to a United Nations report released earlier this year, more than 700 million people went hungry last year and over a third of the global population is unable to afford a healthy diet. Apart from India, other programs including a United States government program and privately funded projects are helping develop new seeds that can adapt to climate change in Africa, Central America and other Asian countries. “We really need these seeds to deal with these multiple issues created by global warming,” said Ashok Kumar Singh, former director of New Delhi-based Indian Agriculture Research Institute and a scientist who specializes in plant genetics and breeding. Singh has overseen the creation of multiple successful rice varieties to resist various plant diseases. And his organization, with funding from the government, has released more than 2,000 seed varieties in the last decade. “Ensuring that farmers know about such seeds, can afford them and are trained to use them properly is as important as creating the seeds,” said Aditi Mukherji, director for climate change adaptation and mitigation at the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research and an author of several United Nations climate reports. 8. What can we learn from P. Ravinder Reddy’s words? A. He has been a soldier for sixteen years. B. He has an approach to helping seeds grow. C. The climate in India has become extreme. D. It is easy to predict when it will rain in India. 9. What is a consequence of applying natural farming? A. Yield decrease. B. Energy shortage. C. Land loss. D. Environmental harm. 10. What does the author want to show by mentioning 700 million people? A. The rising population around the world. B. The right way of keeping a healthy diet. C. The importance of a United Nations report. D. The necessity for developing tougher seeds. 11. What is Aditi Mukherji’s suggestion for the governments? A. Training their farmers. B. Creating more jobs. C. Raising the price of seeds. D. Ensuring personal security. D Global warming is mainly caused by the increased emission of greenhouse gases, in particular carbon dioxide produced by power stations that use huge amounts of fossil fuel to supply us with electricity. These greenhouse gases have an average lifetime in the atmosphere of 50 to 200 years. This means that even if we stopped the emission of greenhouse gases completely tomorrow, global warming would still continue for decades to come. The International Energy Agency(IEA) records the energy consumption worldwide and produces a forecast for the next 25 years. In their last energy outlook published in 2006, IEA predicted a strong increase of the carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 as a consequence of the increasing demand for energy worldwide. Additionally, IEA investigated to which extent the above mentioned emissions of CO₂ could be prevented if politics applied strict measures. One of many measures investigated was massive facilitation and stimulation for building additional nuclear power plants (核电站). Nuclear energy is used to generate electrical power without any sort of fossil fuel involved in the process. Therefore, CO₂ emission can indeed be reduced, if electricity power plants driven by fossil fuels were replaced by nuclear power plants. Yet, the application of nuclear power is highly risky and problematic; and so the problem of CO2 emissions must not be looked at independently of all other risks and problems. Some critics claim that nuclear energy’s emissions can compare to those of fossil-fuels’ when the life cycle impacts of nuclear power are considered. Although nuclear power plants do not release greenhouse gases when generating electricity, certain processes used to build and fuel the plants do, such as transporting the fuel to the plants in trucks. However, dozens of studies show that nuclear plants’ life cycle impacts are actually more comparable to those of renewable energy, such as wind and solar, and far less than those of coal-fired or natural gas-fired power plants. In the end we can say that nuclear energy could significantly contribute to reducing the cause of global warming. Having said that, it can also be a highly risky option if we shut the eyes to the many risks of nuclear power. 12. What can be inferred about greenhouse gases from paragraph 1? A. They can be restricted within a short time. B. They will reduce people’s average lifetime. C. They will keep increasing for decades to come. D. They have a lasting impact on global warming. 13. What is the purpose of the IEA’s investigation? A. To analyze the impact of global warming. B. To identify ways to reduce CO₂ emissions. C. To predict future energy consumption worldwide. D.

What is the best title for the text? A. Solutions to Dealing with CO₂ Emissions B. IEA Energy Outlook for Decades to Come C. Is Nuclear Energy the Answer to Global Warming? D. How Can Human Beings Survive Global Warming? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Navigating the teenage years can be both exciting and overwhelming.

Enjoying a swim at their local beach was once a daily pleasure for them. But when Melati was fifteen, and Isabel just ten, the sisters started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters near their borne. More often than not, plastic bags would be around them as they swam and some were scattered on the beach. They got really upset about that. Melati didn’t think much about it until one day her teacher gave a lesson on some world heroes. Each of those people had sparked movements of positive changes in the world. They believed in the impact they could have and they did inspire more people to do something meaningful. After school, Melati walked home slowly in silence, concerned about the vast amount of plastic rubbish on the beach. The heroes crossed her mind. If they could do it, we could do it too, she thought. The idea lit her up. She couldn’t wait to share what she thought with Isabel and quickened her pace. “So many plastic bags around! The beach is dirty and messy! It’s so terrible! We have lost the clean and beautiful beach. Can’t we do something to get it back?” Melati said heartily. Isabel felt a bit puzzled at what to do, but she also had a strong desire to do something. Picturing a beach as fascinating as before in mind, the pair jumped with joy. They talked a lot, anxious to know how Dad and Mom would respond to their ideas. That night when the family sat by the dinner table, the sisters eagerly got their ideas across. While Mom and Dad listened to the girls carefully, their eyes shone. “How amazing that would be! We are so proud of you!” Dad exclaimed. Mom came up, gave them a thumb up and hugged the sisters. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Melati and Isabel decided to make a positive impact straight away. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One month later, Melati received a call from the local newspaper. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
