二、阅读理解
A
According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed(安装)has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals. But all of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy, few like large solar panels to be installed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven’t given much thought to what they put under them. Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.
“Solar projects need to be good neighbors,” says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE)project. “They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators(传粉昆虫).
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy. Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use. Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens, businesses, schools, cities—and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction. “These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that’s going on in the landscape,” says Macknick.
1.What do solar developers often ignore?
A.The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D.The most recent advances in solar technology.
2.What does InSPIRE aim to do?
A.Improve the productivity of local farms.
B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.
3.What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To conserve pollinators. B.To restrict solar development.
C.To diversify the economy. D.To ensure the supply of energy.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Pollinators: To Leave or to Stay B.Solar Energy: Hope for the Future
C.InSPIRE: A Leader in Agriculture D.Solar Farms: A New Development

For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self-employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis(危机)in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate (房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job. One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1, 600 miles away. It didn’t take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job.
Merebeth’s pet delivery service also satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas.
This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. She moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off-road biking.
It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30, 000 per year before tax. She doesn’t work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It’s a call she must heed alone, though. Merebeth says, “When I am on the road, I’m just in my own world. I’ve always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals.”
5.Why did Merebeth changed her job?
A.She wanted to work near her home.
B.She was tired of working in the office.
C.Her sister asked her to move to Denver.
D.Her former employer was out of business.
6.The word “wanderlust” in paragraph 2 means a desire to _________?
A.make money. B.try various jobs.
C.be close to nature. D.travel to different places.
7.What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job?
A.She has chances to see rare animals.
B.She works hard throughout the year.
C.She relies on herself the whole time.
D.She earns a basic and tax-free salary.

(时间:30分钟)
一、根据汉语提示单词拼写
1.The new text ______ (由……组成) of three parts is hard to recite.
【答案】composed/comprised/consisting
【详解】考查固定搭配和非谓语动词。句意:这篇由三部分组成的课文很难背诵。分析句子结构可知,is是句子的谓语动词,所以空处填非谓语动词;再根据所给汉语提示可知,be composed of/be comprised of意为“由……组成”,此处省去be,用过去分词composed/comprised作the new text的后置定语;此处还可以用consist of“由……组成”,此短语无被动,用现在分词consisting作后置定语。故填composed/comprised/consisting。
2.There is no doubt that fresh air and ________ (有营养的) food will speed his recovery.
【答案】nutritious
【详解】考查形容词。句意:毫无疑问,呼吸新鲜空气和吃有营养的食物会加速他的康复。根据汉语提示“有营养的”可知,此处使用形容词nutritious,作定语,修饰名词food。故填nutritious。
3.The failure of the peace talks set off a chain of ___________ (危机).
【答案】crises
【详解】考查名词。句意:和谈的失败引发了一连串的危机。“危机”是crisis,空前有a chain of可知,空格处用复数crises,故填crises。
4.In the speech, he explained some of the positive ________ (方面) of technological development.
【答案】aspects
【详解】考查名词。句意:在演讲中,他解释了科技发展的一些积极方面。“方面”是aspect,空前有some,空格处用复数,故填aspects。
5.The team use running to __________ (克服) their hardships and to rebuild their hopes for a better future.
【答案】overcome
【详解】考查动词。句意:团队通过跑步来克服困难,并重建对美好未来的希望。空前的to是不定式的标志,所以空处应填动词原形,根据所给中文提示词,应是overcome意为“克服”符合语境。故填overcome。
6.The need to communicate is a key ________ (特征;特点) of human society.
【答案】characteristic
【详解】考查名词。句意:交流的需要是人类社会的一个关键特征。根据汉语提示可知,空格处应用单词characteristic,为可数名词,根据空格前不定冠词a可知,空格处应用其单数形式,在句中作表语。故填characteristic。
7.Art production theory has gone through three major stages in ________ (国内的) development.
【答案】domestic
【详解】考查形容词。句意:艺术生产理论在国内的发展经历了三个主要阶段。根据句意和中文提示可知,表示“国内的”可用domestic,为形容词,在本句中作定语。故填domestic。
8.According to a recent study, both the size and __________ (消费) habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake.
【答案】consumption
【详解】考查名词。句意:根据最近的一项研究,我们用餐伙伴的体型和消费习惯都会影响我们的食物摄入量。设空处应填名词与size并列作主语,“消费”对应的名词是consumption,为不可数名词。故填consumption。
9.With the development of social media, this kind of creative content has become ________ (普遍的;广泛的) among young people across the nation.
【答案】widespread
【详解】考查形容词。句意:随着社交媒体的发展,这种创意内容已在全中国的年轻人中变得很普遍。“普遍的;广泛的”对应的英语单词为widespread,形容词作表语。故填widespread。
10.Deeply ________ (致力于) herself to environmental protection, she went to participate in activities every weekend.
【答案】devoting
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:她全身心致力于环境保护,每个周末都去参加相关活动。根据汉语提示“致力于”可知,此处为动词devote,此处为非谓语动词作状语,与主语she之间为主动关系,所以此处使用现在分词形式作状语,devote oneself to表示“致力于”。故填devoting。
二、阅读理解
A
According to the Solar Energy Industry Association, the number of solar panels installed(安装)has grown rapidly in the past decade, and it has to grow even faster to meet climate goals. But all of that growth will take up a lot of space, and though more and more people accept the concept of solar energy, few like large solar panels to be installed near them.
Solar developers want to put up panels as quickly and cheaply as possible, so they haven’t given much thought to what they put under them. Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.
“Solar projects need to be good neighbors,” says Jordan Macknick, the head of the Innovative Site Preparation and Impact Reductions on the Environment(InSPIRE)project. “They need to be protectors of the land and contribute to the agricultural economy.” InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land. One of the easiest low-impact solar strategies is providing habitat for pollinators(传粉昆虫).
Habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pollinator populations over the past couple of decades, which has damaged the U.S. agricultural economy. Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use. Conservation organizations put out pollinator-friendliness guidelines for home gardens, businesses, schools, cities—and now there are guidelines for solar farms.
Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction. “These pollinator-friendly solar farms can have a valuable impact on everything that’s going on in the landscape,” says Macknick.
1.What do solar developers often ignore?
A.The decline in the demand for solar energy.
B.The negative impact of installing solar panels.
C.The rising labor cost of building solar farms.
D.The most recent advances in solar technology.
2.What does InSPIRE aim to do?
A.Improve the productivity of local farms.
B.Invent new methods for controlling weeds.
C.Make solar projects environmentally friendly.
D.Promote the use of solar energy in rural areas.
3.What is the purpose of the laws mentioned in paragraph 4?
A.To conserve pollinators. B.To restrict solar development.
C.To diversify the economy. D.To ensure the supply of energy.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Pollinators: To Leave or to Stay B.Solar Energy: Hope for the Future
C.InSPIRE: A Leader in Agriculture D.Solar Farms: A New Development
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是用一种更加友好的方式建立一种新型的太阳能农场,这种新型的农场更有利于保护各种传粉昆虫,从而促进农业的发展。
【详解】1.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Often, they’ll end up filling the area with small stones and using chemicals to control weeds. The result is that many communities, especially in farming regions, see solar farms as destroyers of the soil.(通常,他们最终会用小石头填满该地区,并使用化学物质来控制杂草。结果是,许多社区,特别是在农业地区,将太阳能农场视为土壤的破坏者。)”可知,太阳能开发者采用不环保的方式处理太阳能板安装后产生的问题,导致人们把太阳能农场看作是土壤的破坏者,由此可以推断,开发者在安装太阳能板后忽略了其带来的负面影响。故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“InSPIRE is investigating practical approaches to “low-impact” solar development, which focuses on establishing and operating solar farms in a way that is kinder to the land.(InSPIRE正在研究“低影响”太阳能开发的实用方法,其重点是以对土地更友好的方式建立和运营太阳能农场。)”可知,InSPIRE采用有好的方式建立和运营太阳能农场,也就是使得太阳能农场更加环保。故选C项。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Over 28 states have passed laws related to pollinator habitat protection and pesticide use.(超过28个州通过了与传粉媒介栖息地保护和农药使用有关的法律。)”可知,这些法律都是与保护传粉者栖息地和农药使用相关,所以这些法律的目的是保护授粉者。故选A项。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中的“Over the past few years, many solar farm developers have transformed the space under their solar panels into a shelter for various kinds of pollinators, resulting in soil improvement and carbon reduction.(在过去的几年里,许多太阳能农场开发商将太阳能电池板下的空间改造成各种传粉媒介的庇护所,从而改善了土壤并减少了碳排放。)”可知,现在的太阳能农场在过去的几年里已经得到了很大的发展,更重要的是太阳能农场也变得更加的环保,这将是未来发展农业的新趋势,再结合全文对太阳农场的发展过程的介绍可以判断,本文主题是介绍太阳能农场。故选D项。
B
For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self-employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis(危机)in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate (房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job. One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1, 600 miles away. It didn’t take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job.
Merebeth’s pet delivery service also satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas.
This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. She moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off-road biking.
It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30, 000 per year before tax. She doesn’t work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It’s a call she must heed alone, though. Merebeth says, “When I am on the road, I’m just in my own world. I’ve always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals.”
5.Why did Merebeth changed her job?
A.She wanted to work near her home.
B.She was tired of working in the office.
C.Her sister asked her to move to Denver.
D.Her former employer was out of business.
6.The word “wanderlust” in paragraph 2 means a desire to _________?
A.make money. B.try various jobs.
C.be close to nature. D.travel to different places.
7.What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job?
A.She has chances to see rare animals.
B.She works hard throughout the year.
C.She relies on herself the whole time.
D.She earns a basic and tax-free salary.
【答案】5.D 6.D 7.C
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述Merebeth从事的新工作。近十年来,她一直是一名自营宠物运输专家。
【详解】5.推理判断题。根据第一段中“The downturn hit the real estate (房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job.(她曾在一家房地产公司做了10年的办公室经理,经济低迷打击了这家公司。 公司破产了,她只好另寻新工作)”,可知,Merebeth之所以换工作,是因为她以前的雇主破产了。故选D。
6.词义猜测题。根据第二段中“It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers.(她自豪地说,除了蒙大拿州、华盛顿州和俄勒冈州,她走遍了美国所有的州。如果她想去一个新的地方,她只需要找到一个有交通需要的宠物。 她风雨无阻地旅行)”,可知,划线词的意思是“渴望去不同的地方旅行”。故选D。
7.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When I am on the road, I'm just in my own world. I've always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I mush help animals.(当我在路上的时候,我只是在自己的世界里。 我一直很独立,我强烈地觉得我必须帮助动物)”,可知,Merebeth在她的新工作中一直都是靠自己。故选C。
三、完形填空
Last Sunday, my class went to visit the Yuan Longping Memorial Hall. We all knew Mr. Yuan was a great scientist who helped solve the food problem for many people. Our teacher told us to take notebooks to 1 important things we learned.
When we arrived, a guide greeted us warmly. She took us to the first hall and showed us photos of Mr. Yuan. We saw him working in the fields — he always wore a simple hat and 2 clothes.
