B Xu Congxiang,69,a major grain grower in Taihe County,East China's Anhui Province,reached a record harvest this year,with the wheat yield on his demonstration farm over 800 kilograms(kg)per mu (0.067 hectares)."In the 1970s,most of China's wheat yield per mu was under 300 kg.Now,as farming technology continues to improve,our grain output has increased greatly,recalls Xu. A few decades ago,when Xu was under 20 and had just graduated from high school,he returned to his hometown and became a farmer,taking up his journey of exploring new ways to increase grain yield through science and technology.Back then,a magnifying glass )was Xu's best helper for field observation.Taking a magnifying glass and a notebook, Xu used to set off into the fields at dawn and stay there until the moon rose. "At that time,there was no advanced equipment,such as an insect monitor.We could only use a magnifying glass to observe very small changes in the crops.Some tiny spots on the leaves could be the signal of the output reduction,"says Xu.During those years,Xu wrote many notebooks,which contained detailed information including the time and degree of wind and the growth status of crops.With his rich experience,Xu summed up the methods in the green and efficient cultivation()of wheat and promoted them to the surrounding farmers. Under his influence,Xu's children followed in his footsteps to work in agriculture and achieved further breakthroughs.His family focuses on developing high-quality varieties and exploring high-yield cultivation techniques.Since the beginning of this year,a total of fifty new grain varieties have been planted in the experimental field,and seven experiments have been conducted.In Xu's opinion,modern agricultural science and technology should be applied to help modern farmers increase yield,and he is resolved to make continuous efforts in this field. 24.What can be shown from Xu's words in paragraph 1? A.The origin of a demonstration farm. B.The advance of agriculture in China C.The satisfaction of working as a farmer. D.His pleasant memories of the old days. 25.Why was Xu concerned about the small marks on crop leaves? A.They could make the crops look different. B.They might help the crops grow more quickly. C.They could show that the weather was changing. D.They could indicate a possible decline in crop yield. 英语试卷(27Q)第4页（共10页） 26.What is the purpose of writing Xu's children in the last paragraph? A.To explain why large-scale grain experiments are carried out locally. B.To compare the different farming techniques between two generations. C.To show Xu's spirit and cause of scientific farming can be passed down. D.To prove they are more talented in agriculture than Xu himself. 27.Which of the following can best describe Xu Congxiang? A.Ambitious and devoted. B.Empathetic and pioneering. C.Sociable and independent. D.Industrious and determined. c In Hawaii,researchers have come up with an innovative method for putting the islands' plastic pollution to work,covering roads with asphalt()mixed with plastic waste and old fishing nets.The project is designed to solve the islands'unique exposure to old fishing equipment,tourist waste,and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. One key question is whether wear and tear on that pavement might release microplastics into the environment.Initial results show that the asphalt is largely intact."We're extremely concerned about this issue,"says chemist Jennifer Lynch,since the promising short-term performance of the asphalt does not guarantee absolute safety in the long run.She heads the Centre for Marine Debris Research at Hawaii Pacific University. The centre runs the Nets-to-Roads programme in which marine biologists collect and sort marine trash and plastic gathered from beaches,picking out waste made with a durable plastic called polyethylene found in milk containers and fishing nets.The waste and nets are ground (and then mixed with other ingredients to make asphalt.The hot mix is loaded onto trucks and used to pave roads. In the first stage of the research,three experimental pavement strips were laid:a section with traditional asphalt and a kind of rubber called styrene-butadiene-styrene; another with the ground marine waste and the rubber;a third with the waste and asphalt without the rubber. Eleven months later,researchers collected road samples and ran some tests.The team used a variety of methods to simulate how microplastics would normally be released into the ecosystem.There wasn't significant microplastic release compared with the strip of road with no plastic mixed into the asphalt,said Jeremy Axworthy,a marine biologist who worked on the programme. Bill Buttlar,director of the Mizzou Asphalt Pavement and Innovation Lab at the University of Missouri in Columbia,says he's impressed with the programme but notes that the challenges with road performance in Hawaii are different from those in other places. "The main challenge of scaling this up is getting the recipe right,Buttlar says. 28.What does the underlined word "intact"in paragraph 2 most probably mean? A.Fragile.B.Unlimited. C.Degraded. D.Unchanged. 29.Why are the three experimental pavement strips mentioned in paragraph 4? A.To show how the research is carried out. B.To compare various rubber materials for pavement. C.To introduce different types of road-building materials. D.To prove marine plastic waste should replace traditional asphalt. 英语试卷(27Q)第5页（共10页） 30.What is Bill Buttlar's attitude towards the programme? A.Reserved but neutral. B.Positive but cautious. C.Confident and supportive. D.Skeptical and dismissive. 31.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.Tackle Ocean Pollution Across the Globe B.Turn Ocean Plastic Waste Into Roads C.Test New Kinds of Eco-Friendly Rubber D.Release Microplastics into the Ecosystem D Self-driving cars have long been backed by the widespread public hope that they will save lives by being involved in far fewer crashes,with far fewer injuries and deaths,than ordinary human-driven cars on public roads.Advocates often paint a future where traffic accidents almost disappear,as automated systems eliminate human errors like distracted driving and speeding.But so far,most direct comparisons between human drivers and automated vehicles have been deeply unfair,creating a misleadingly positive impression of self-driving safety. Crash statistics for human-driven cars are gathered from all sorts of real-world driving situations and on all types of roads-in crowded city centers,on narrow country roads,in heavy rain,sudden snow and thick fog,at any hour of the day or night.However,most of the published data on self-driving cars'safety have been recorded in mild weather and on well-marked highways,where the most important tasks are staying in the car's own lane and not getting too close to the vehicle ahead.Automated cars are reliably good at these simple, repetitive tasks,but so are most careful human drivers. It is true that self-driving cars don't get tired,angry or frustrated after long hours on the road.But neither can they yet react to uncertain situations with the same skill or sharp anticipation as an attentive,experienced human driver.Nor do they possess the human-like foresight to spot and avoid hidden potential dangers far ahead.They largely drive from moment to moment,making split-second decisions based only on what their sensors happen to detect at that exact instant. To judge whether automated driving truly saves lives,scientists insist that we must "compare apples with apples"-namely,measure automated cars only in the situations in which they are actually driven.If robot cars are tested mostly on easy highways,their excellent safety records tell us little about how they would handle busy city streets full of pedestrians,delivery bikes and sudden unexpected incidents.Until such fair and demanding comparisons are widely made,the promise of much safer roads remains just that-a promise, not yet a fuily proven fact. 32.Why does the author say most comparisons between human drivers and automated cars are“unfair”? A.Human-driven cars cause more injuries and deaths. B.Automated cars are tested under far easier conditions. C.Human drivers make more mistakes than automated cars. D.Automated cars are more expensive than human-driven ones. 英语试卷(27Q)第6页（共10页） 33.What can we infer about self-driving cars from paragraph 3? A.They have been widely used on all types of roads. B.They can avoid all potential dangers with their sensors. C.They are already safer than human drivers in every situation. D.They may fail to address unpredictable situations as well as humans. 34.According to the text,the author's attitude toward the future application of self-driving technology can be described as A.subjective B.objective C.opposed D.indifferent 35.What is the main idea of the text? A.Autonomous cars have proven suitable for various road conditions. B.Scientists have worked out perfect standards for self-driving car tests. C.Human drivers will soon be completely replaced by self-driving cars. D.The safety promise of self-driving cars lacks fair and sufficient proof. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Street names help us figure out where we are.36 Some names,like 125th Street, are just descriptions of locations.But often,streets are named after people,which places us in a historical or political context too. Not far from where my brother lives in north London is a street called Kitchener Road. Just behind the lamp post is an old sign,made of thick iron,bearing the name.37 That sign seems to say this person was and still is deserving of recognition.But Kitchener Road reminded me of Britain's history of colonial(殖民地的)rule,as Kitchener(l850-l9l6)was a cruel British military officer across Asia and Africa. Saying street names are markers of history attracts two types of criticism.One is that it's nothing more than a storm in a teacup.Street names don't really matter.38 But naming streets after people responsible for killings means continuing to celebrate them and making that view of history seem normal in everyday life.So what should we do? 39 Another option is the Amsterdam approach.There,a street honoring anti-apartheid(反种族隔离)leader Albert Luthuli has a sign noting:“Formerly:Louis Botha street,"named after a prime minister of colonial South Africa. Where controversial names remain,people are also creating walking tours to provide fuller historical context.In Glasgow,a tour was organized to make people know about the city's role in the enslavement of people.This practice is a creative response to damaging histories and provides local communities with a thoughtful way forward. Walking away from Kitchener Road,I thought of a different Kitchener:the legendary Trinidadian calypso musician.Upon arriving in England,he sang London is the Place for Me.If Kitchener Road must keep its name,I'd prefer to imagine they honor the "King of Calypso,"not the colonial butcher.40 A.This idea works in two ways. B.In my view,such streets should be renamed. C.The other concern is that renaming may erase history. D.Perhaps reinterpreting street names is an approach we can adopt. E.To name a street after a person is a way of honoring his or her achievements. F.Old street names can sometimes encourage people to investigate local history. G.The real question is not whether history matters,but how it should be presented. 英语试卷(27Q)第7页（共10页） 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）》 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Alexander Clark a former IT professional,found a new career after retirement.As a child,he took a(n)41 to woodwork and music,but his career took a different 42.

Wondering why Li was still afraid of her,Amanda took a cookie off her plate and held it out toLi,“Want a bite?” As soon as Li saw Amanda reaching over,her eyes widened.She jumped down from her seat and raced to her room.What an annoyance!Amanda complained to Mom that she had thought being a big sister would be fun.Mom took Amanda's hand,reminding her that Li was in a new country with a new family and how scared she might be. “Honey,she is still getting used to you,”Mom added.“It's only been two weeks.” Over a year ago,Amanda's parents said that they were adopting a daughter from China, and Amanda danced with excitement.She'd dreamed of taking her sister to the park, reading books to her,and teaching her to ride a bicycle.That hadn't happened,though.In the weeks since their trip to China,Li had only let their mom and dad near her.Amanda had drawn pictures for her,read to her,and made funny faces,but none had worked.Whenever she got close,Li ran away. "I just wish I knew how to help her,Amanda said to herself,thinking of Li's frightened eyes.As she sat onto the couch,she turned on the TV and began to watch a cartoon about a dog and a cat.After a few seconds,Amanda realized that the cartoon was in another language.The show looked funny,but she didn't understand any of it.She frowned,turning off the TV.It reminded her of when they were in China.She had got frustrated when people talked in Mandarin,the language spoken in Li's province. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 "That's it,cried Amanda,speeding to her room.
