A recent study published in the journal “Nature Sustainability” reveals that cities can reduce heat stress by increasing green spaces and using reflective materials on roofs. Researchers analyzed data from 100 cities worldwide and found that areas with more parks and tree-lined streets had surface temperatures up to 5°C lower than those with less vegetation. “Urban heat islands are a growing problem,” said Dr. Elena Martinez, lead author of the study. “But simple, cost-effective measures can make a big difference.” The study also highlighted that combining green roofs with white-painted roofs could maximize cooling effects. However, the researchers warned that such measures should be tailored to local climate conditions, as excessive reflectivity might cause glare in sunny regions.

In the field of archaeology, a new technique called “DNA barcoding” is helping scientists trace the origins of ancient artifacts. By analyzing tiny DNA traces left on objects, researchers can determine what plants or animals were used to make them, and even where they came from. For example, a study of a 2,000-year-old ceramic vessel found in Central Asia revealed that it contained residues from rice, indicating trade links with East Asia. This method is non-destructive and complements traditional dating methods. However, it requires careful handling to avoid contamination. Lead researcher Dr. James Park noted that “DNA barcoding opens a new window into past human migration and exchange networks.” The technique is still under development, but it has already provided surprising insights into the Silk Road’s complexity.
10. What is DNA barcoding used for in archaeology?( )
A. To determine the age of artifacts.
B. To identify the materials and origins of artifacts.
C. To repair broken artifacts.
D. To create digital copies of artifacts.
11. What did the study of the ceramic vessel reveal?( )
A. It was used for cooking rice.
B. It showed evidence of long-distance trade.
C. It was made in East Asia.
D. It contained animal bones.
12. What is a challenge of this technique?( )
A. It is destructive to artifacts.
B. It requires expensive equipment.
C. It is sensitive to contamination.
D. It is not accurate enough.
13. What is Dr.Park’s view on the technique?( )
A. It is still too unreliable to use.
B. It has great potential for historical research.
C. It will replace traditional methods.
D. It is only useful for Asian artifacts.
【答案】10. B 11. B 12. C 13. B

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中“However, it requires careful handling to avoid contamination.(然而,它需要小心处理以避免污染)”可知,这项技术的一个挑战是它对污染很敏感。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Lead researcher Dr. James Park noted that “DNA barcoding opens a new window into past human migration and exchange networks.”(首席研究员詹姆斯·帕克博士指出:“DNA条形码为过去人类迁徙和交流网络打开了一扇新窗口。”)”可知,帕克博士认为该技术在历史研究方面有很大潜力。

【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些保护区不仅保护大熊猫,还保护了支撑它们生存的独特的生态系统。句中已有谓语动词protect和preserve,support“支撑,供养”与其逻辑主语ecosystem之间为主动关系,故用现在分词supporting作后置定语。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:游客可以参观其中一些保护区,在那里他们可以在自然环境中观察大熊猫。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为reserves,指地点,在从句中作地点状语,用关系副词where引导。

In the small coastal town of Portree, a group of local artists has launched an innovative project called “Art on the Waves”. They use abandoned fishing boats as floating galleries, displaying paintings and sculptures that reflect the town’s maritime heritage. Visitors can rent a small boat and paddle between the anchored vessels, enjoying art while surrounded by the sea. “We want to connect people with our fishing culture in a fresh way,” says Fiona, one of the founders. The project has attracted tourists from all over the country, and local fishermen are happy to see their old boats given a new life. However, some residents worry that too many visitors might disturb the quietness of the bay. Despite this, the project continues to grow, with plans to include live music performances on the boats during summer evenings.

A recent study published in the journal “Nature Sustainability” reveals that cities can reduce heat stress by increasing green spaces and using reflective materials on roofs. Researchers analyzed data from 100 cities worldwide and found that areas with more parks and tree-lined streets had surface temperatures up to 5°C lower than those with less vegetation. “Urban heat islands are a growing problem,” said Dr. Elena Martinez, lead author of the study. “But simple, cost-effective measures can make a big difference.” The study also highlighted that combining green roofs with white-painted roofs could maximize cooling effects. However, the researchers warned that such measures should be tailored to local climate conditions, as excessive reflectivity might cause glare in sunny regions.
4. What does the study suggest about urban green spaces?( )
A. They have little effect on temperature.
B. They can significantly lower surface temperatures.
C. They are too expensive for most cities.
D. They cause problems in sunny regions.
5. What is Dr. Martinez’s attitude towards the measures?( )
A. Skeptical. B. Optimistic. C. Critical. D. Indifferent.
6. What caution does the study give?( )
A. Green roofs are ineffective in cold climates.
B. Reflective materials may cause visual discomfort.
C. The measures are only useful in tropical areas.
D. Cities should not invest in such projects.
C
The concept of “digital minimalism” is gaining popularity among young professionals. It advocates reducing screen time, deleting unnecessary apps, and focusing on meaningful offline activities. According to a survey by the Digital Wellness Institute, 68% of respondents reported feeling less anxious after adopting digital minimalism. However, critics argue that it might hinder productivity and social connections, especially for those who rely heavily on digital tools for work. One practitioner, Sarah Chen, a software engineer, said that she now limits her social media use to 30 minutes a day and feels more focused. She also mentioned that she reconnected with hobbies like painting and hiking. The movement encourages people to evaluate their digital habits and make conscious choices rather than being passively controlled by algorithms.
7. What is the main idea of the passage?( )
A. Digital tools are harmful to mental health.
B. Digital minimalism helps reduce anxiety and improve focus.
C. Social media should be banned entirely.
D. Young professionals are addicted to technology.
8. What does the survey indicate?( )
A. Most people are against digital minimalism.
B. A majority of participants experienced reduced anxiety.
C. Digital minimalism is ineffective for professionals.
D. People prefer offline activities over online ones.
9. What does Sarah Chen’s experience show?( )
A. It is impossible to reduce screen time.
B. Cutting down on digital use can bring benefits.
C. Software engineers cannot disconnect from work.
D. Hobbies are more important than work.
D
In the field of archaeology, a new technique called “DNA barcoding” is helping scientists trace the origins of ancient artifacts. By analyzing tiny DNA traces left on objects, researchers can determine what plants or animals were used to make them, and even where they came from. For example, a study of a 2,000-year-old ceramic vessel found in Central Asia revealed that it contained residues from rice, indicating trade links with East Asia. This method is non-destructive and complements traditional dating methods. However, it requires careful handling to avoid contamination. Lead researcher Dr. James Park noted that “DNA barcoding opens a new window into past human migration and exchange networks.” The technique is still under development, but it has already provided surprising insights into the Silk Road’s complexity.
10. What is DNA barcoding used for in archaeology?( )
A. To determine the age of artifacts.
B. To identify the materials and origins of artifacts.
C. To repair broken artifacts.
D. To create digital copies of artifacts.
11. What did the study of the ceramic vessel reveal?( )
A. It was used for cooking rice.
B. It showed evidence of long-distance trade.
C. It was made in East Asia.
D. It contained animal bones.
12. What is a challenge of this technique?( )
A. It is destructive to artifacts.
B. It requires expensive equipment.
C. It is sensitive to contamination.
D. It is not accurate enough.
13. What is Dr.Park’s view on the technique?( )
A. It is still too unreliable to use.
B. It has great potential for historical research.
C. It will replace traditional methods.
D. It is only useful for Asian artifacts.

The old man, Mr. Henderson, turned out to be a retired artist. Grateful for Tom’s help, he invited Tom to visit his studio. There, Tom saw stunning landscapes and portraits, and felt a deep connection. Mr. Henderson noticed Tom’s interest and asked if he painted.
