话题:水下数据中心
In an era where data centers are becoming increasingly vital for our digital society,China has begun a groundbreaking endeavor to push the boundaries of innovation and sustainability.
Nestled off the coast of Sanya,Hainan Province,China is in the process of constructing the world's first commercial underwater data center. This project aims to revolutionize the industry by using the power of the ocean depths while saving a significant amount of energy and land. With the potential to equal the computational(计算的) abilities of about 6 million conventional personal computers,this underwater data center is bound to be a gamechanger.
The data center modules(模块) of China's underwater facility are being carefully installed on the seafloor at depths of around 35 meters. Designed to withstand the harsh underwater conditions,these modules are expected to operate sustainably for up to 25 years. Each watertight storage module weighs an impressive 1,300 tons and boasts the capability to process over 4 million highdefinition images every 30 seconds. When combined,the entire facility is projected to match the computational power of surprising 6 million conventional PCs working together.
The construction of the underwater data center is a result of collaboration between Sanya officials and several Chinese tech firms. With the initial deployment of one storage module in April and the recent addition of a second module,the project is well underway. The ambitious plan aims to have a total of 100 modules fully operational by 2025,marking a significant milestone in sustainable data center development.
The motivation behind this pioneering project extends beyond technological advancement. By choosing an underwater data center,China is actively addressing the challenges of land conservation. Traditional data centers can occupy vast amounts of land,often equal to the size of multiple soccer fields. In contrast,this underwater marvel takes up minimal dry space,preserving land for other essential purposes. Additionally,the use of natural seawater cooling reduces the strain on traditional energy sources,leading to a significant reduction in carbon emissions. This environmentally conscious approach agree with global sustainability goals and sets an example for the industry to follow.

话题:无碳排放运输货船
In a small,rough shipyard on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica,a small team is building what they say will be the world's largest oceangoing clean cargo ship.
Ceiba is the first ship built by Sailcargo,a company trying to prove that zerocarbon shipping is possible,and commercially available. Made largely of wood,Ceiba combines both very old and very new technology: sailing masts stand alongside solar panels,a uniquely designed electric engine and batteries. Once on the water,she will be capable of crossing oceans entirely without the use of fossil fuels,which sets her apart.
“The thing that is striking is the fact that she'll have one of the largest marine electric engines of her kind in the world,” Danielle Doggett said. The system also has the means to capture energy from underwater propellers(螺旋桨) as well as solar power,so electricity will be available for the engine when needed. “Really,the only limit on how long she can stay at sea is water and food on board for the crew.”
Despite some holdups due to the global disaster,the team hopes to get her on the water by the end of 2024 and operating by 2025,when she will begin transporting cargo between Costa Rica and Canada.
“There are actually loads of innovations happening that could transform shipping emissions,but few companies are willing to apply them to building ships like Ceiba.” says Lucy Gilliam. “So it's not that we don't have great ideas. The problem that we have is that fossil fuels are still too cheap. And we don't have the rules to force people to take up the new technology.”
When it comes to promoting this kind of boat,it has to be said that Ceiba is small for a cargo ship-tiny in fact. She will carry around nine standard shipping containers. She is also relatively slow. Being a worldfirst,there are some aspects of Ceiba's design that have yet to be proven at sea.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。介绍了Sailcargo公司建造的第一艘无碳排放运输货船,文章介绍了该船的优势,也同样介绍了该货船的不足之处。
5.What is unique about Ceiba as a cargo ship?
A.It is the world's largest.
B.It is environmentfriendly.
C.It is wooden with old technology.
D.It is modern with unique equipment.
解析:B [细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Made largely of wood,Ceiba combines both very old and very new technology:sailing masts stand alongside solar panels,a uniquely designed electric engine and batteries.Once on the water,she will be capable of crossing oceans entirely without the use of fossil fuels,which sets her apart.(Ceiba主要由木材制成,结合了非常古老和非常新的技术:帆船桅杆旁边是太阳能电池板,一个独特设计的电动发动机和电池。一旦下水,她将能够完全不使用化石燃料而跨越海洋,这使她与众不同。)”可知,Ceiba作为一艘货船与众不同之处是它不用化石燃料,十分环保。]
6.What determines Ceiba's length of staying at sea according to Danielle Doggett?
A.The size of the sail.
B.The weather of the ocean.
C.The power of the electric engine.
D.The quantity of the living supplies.
解析:D [细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Really,the only limit on how long she can stay at sea is water and food on board for the crew.(真的,她能在海上停留多久的唯一限制是船上船员的水和食物。)”可知,决定Ceiba能在海上停留时间的是船上船员的水、食物等生活用品的数量。]
7.Why are companies unwilling to build ships like Ceiba?
A.The rules are disobeyed.
B.The fuels are affordable.
C.The bigger ships are preferable.
D.The innovations are distrusted.
解析:B [细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“So it's not that we don't have great ideas.The problem that we have is that fossil fuels are still too cheap.And we don't have the rules to force people to take up the new technology.(所以这并不是说我们没有好主意。我们面临的问题是化石燃料仍然太便宜了。我们也没有规定强迫人们接受新技术。)”可知,公司不愿意建造像Ceiba这样的船是由于化石燃料能负担得起,比较便宜。]
8.What is the author's attitude to the innovation of Ceiba?
A.Objective. B.Doubtful.
C.Critical. D.Favorable.
解析:A [推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Ceiba is the first ship built by Sailcargo,a company trying to prove that zerocarbon shipping is possible,and commercially available.(Ceiba是由Sailcargo公司建造的第一艘船,该公司试图证明零碳运输是可能的,并且可以商业化。)”及最后一段“When it comes to promoting this kind of boat,it has to be said that Ceiba is small for a cargo ship—tiny in fact.She will carry around nine standard shipping containers.She is also relatively slow.Being a worldfirst,there are some aspects of Ceiba's design that have yet to be proven at sea.(说到推广这种船,不得不说,对于一艘货船来说,Ceiba很小——实际上很小。她将携带大约9个标准集装箱。她的速度也相对较慢。作为世界上第一个,Ceiba的设计有一些方面尚未在海上得到验证。)”可知,文章第二段提到了Ceiba的环保,最后一段讲到了Ceiba的尺寸太小,速度较慢,还有一些方面需要验证,由此推知,作者对于该创新的态度是客观的。]
