7、A study said on Monday.It has found that the world is a greener place than it was 20 years ago.Recent satellite data shows the greening pattern(模式) is very clear in China and India.Data from NASA Earth satellites shows that human activities in China and India influence the greening of the planet,tha

8、nks to tree planting and agriculture.The influence comes mostly from great tree-planting programs in China and modern agriculture in both countries.Chinas great influence on the global greening mainly comes from its programs to keep and make forests larger in size.The goals of the programs are to ma

9、ke less land degradation(退化),less air pollution,and less climate change.“When the greening of the Earth was first noticed,we thought it was because of a warmer,wetter climate.Now with the satellite data,we see that humans are also playing an important part,” said Rama Nemani,research scientist at NA

10、SA and writer of the study.“Once people realize there is a problem,they may try to deal with it.In the 1970s and 1980s in India and China,the situation about vegetation(植被) loss was severe.In the 1990s,people realize it,and today things have improved.Humans are very strong.Thats what we see in the s

11、atellite data,” adding Neman.Land areas used to grow crops are comparable in China and India more than 770,000 square milesand have not changed much since the early 2000s.Yet,these areas have great increased both their green leaf areas and their food production.1.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The

12、 environment 20 years ago was greener than now.B.India has really carried out a great tree planting program.C.The study shows our environment is getting much worse.D.Both China and India pay attention to modern agriculture.2.The programs to keep and make forests larger in size have .A.one goalB.two

15、ion is particularly serious.More than 80% of people live in the areas where pollution levels are beyond WHO limits.One well-established way to reduce air pollution is to plant trees,as their leaves catch and absorb harmful particulates(微粒).But planting new trees is not always a good choice for lack

16、of enough space.Thats why the “City Tree”,a mobile tree which removes pollutants(污染物) from the air,has been becoming popular in cities around the world,including Oslo,Paris,Brussels and Hong Kong.Each City Tree is just under 4 meters tall,nearly 3 meters wide and 2.19 meters deep,acting as a chair o

17、r a bench.A screen is included for information or advertising.Berlin-based Green City Organization explains that its invention has the environmental benefit of up to 275 actual trees.But the City Tree isnt,in fact,a tree at allits a moss culture(青苔培植).“Moss cultures have a much larger leaf surface a

18、rea than any other plant.That means we can catch more pollutants,” said Zhengliang Wu,co-founder of Green City Organization.The huge surfaces of moss in each tree can remove dust,NO2 and O3 gases from the air.It requires very little care:solar panels provide electricity,while rainwater is collected

19、into a container and then sent into the soil.To monitor the health of the moss,the City Tree has sensors which measure soil humidity(湿度),temperature and water quality.“We also have pollution sensors inside the trees,which help monitor the local air quality and tell us how efficient the tree is.” Wu

20、said.Its creators say that each City Tree is able to absorb around 250 grams of particulate matter a day and contributes to removing 480 tons of CO2 a year.5.What is the City Tree?A.It is an ordinary tree growing leaves.B.It is a mobile tree offering electricity.C.It is a mobile tree providing rainw

21、ater.D.It is a moss culture absorbing pollutants.6.Why is the City Tree becoming popular in cities?A.It takes up less space.B.It is very easy to move.C.It requires very little care.D.It can be used for advertisement.7.What does the City Tree depend on to work?A.Soil and rainwater.B.Solar panels and

22、sensors.C.Temperature and humidity.D.Moss culture and management.8.What can be the future of City Trees according to the text?A.Pressing.B.Confusing.C.Promising.D.Worrying.七选五主题语境:环境保护难度系数:建议用时:6分钟China has made great improvements in environmental protection during the past 70 years.1 Each species o

23、n Earth has a role to play in the ecosystem.In recent decades,a series of wildlife-protection campaigns have been carried out by the central government.2The giant panda and the crested ibis are among these success stories.The giant panda used to have a population of 1,114 in the 1970s.It now totals

24、1,864 thanks to 52 protection areas.3 By the end of last year,seven of the nine pandas released had survived in the wild.4 In 1981,only seven crested ibises were found in Yangxian County,Shaanxi Province.Since then,breeding programs have helped the population reach 2,000.China has even sent crested

25、ibises to Japan and South Korea in recent years,to help with the species survival.5 Key projects will be continually carried out to improve protection,including making the lists of wild animals and plants under state protection,and fighting against illegal wildlife trade,which includes ivory(象牙).A.A

26、nother species was once thought to be extinct.B.Protecting wildlife is,without doubt,an important part.C.China will continue its efforts at the wildlife protection.D.People call for immediate protection of the remaining species.E.Scientists have worked to feed pandas and then release them into the w

29、地球卫星数据显示中国的植树造林和中国与印度的现代农业等活动主导了地球变绿的过程。1.D细节理解题。根据第二段“DatafromNASAEarthsatellitesshowsthathumanactivitiesinChinaandIndiainfluencethegreeningoftheplanet,thankstotreeplantingandagriculture.Theinfluencecomesmostlyfromgreattree-plantingprogramsinChinaandmodernagricultureinbothcountries.”可知,中国与印度都重视现代农业

30、。2.C细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Thegoalsoftheprogramsaretomakelesslanddegradation,lessairpollution,andlessclimatechange.”可知,扩大森林面积的目标有三个。3.B细节理解题。根据第四段中的“WhenthegreeningoftheEarthwasfirstnoticed,wethoughtitwasbecauseofawarmer,wetterclimate.”可知,一开始,科学家认为地球变绿是因为气候变化。4.A主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中的“Ithasfoundthattheworldisagreen

31、erplacethanitwas20yearsago.RecentsatellitedatashowsthegreeningpatternisveryclearinChinaandIndia.”可知,全文谈论了中国的植树造林和中国与印度的现代农业等活动主导了地球变绿的过程,故最合适的标题为“IndiaandChinaaremakingtheEarthgreener”。【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍的是用于减少空气污染的“城市树”。5.D细节理解题。根据第四段中的“ButtheCityTreeisnt,infact,atreeatallitsamossculture.”及“Moss

32、cultureshaveamuchlargerleafsurfaceareathananyotherplant.Thatmeanswecancatchmorepollutants”可知,“城市树”是一种吸收污染物的苔藓。6.A推理判断题。根据第二段的“Butplantingnewtreesisnotalwaysagoodchoiceforlackofenoughspace.”和第三段中的“EachCityTreeisjustunder4meterstall,nearly3meterswideand2.19metersdeep,actingasachairorabench.”可知,“城市树”在城

33、市里流行起来是因为它占用更少的空间。7.B细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Itrequiresverylittlecare:solarpanelsprovideelectricity,whilerainwateriscollectedintoacontainerandthensentintothesoil.”和最后一段中的“Tomonitorthehealthofthemoss,theCityTreehassensorswhichmeasuresoilhumidity,temperatureandwaterquality.”可知,城市树靠太阳能电池板和传感器工作。8.C推理判断题。根据最后一段

34、中的“ItscreatorssaythateachCityTreeisabletoabsorbaround250gramsofparticulatematteradayandcontributestoremoving480tonsofCO2ayear.”可知,“城市树”的未来是有前途的。.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在过去的70年里,中国在环境保护方面取得了很大的进步,其中保护野生动物无疑是重要的一环。1.B根据上句“Chinahasmadegreatimprovementsinenvironmentalprotectionduringthepast70years.”可知,在过

35、去的70年里,中国在环境保护方面取得了很大的进步。根据下句“EachspeciesonEarthhasaroletoplayintheecosystem.”可知,地球上的每一个物种都在生态系统中起着作用。所以保护野生动物无疑是重要的一个环节。故选B项。2.G根据上句“Inrecentdecades,aseriesofwildlife-protectioncampaignshavebeencarriedoutbythecentralgovernment.”可知,近几十年来,中央政府开展了一系列的野生动物保护运动。所以对一些濒临灭绝的物种的保护由于采取了这些措施而取得了令人瞩目的进展。故选G项。下

36、文的“Thegiantpandaandthecrestedibis”也是提示。3.E根据下句“Bytheendoflastyear,sevenoftheninepandasreleasedhadsurvivedinthewild.”可知,到去年年底,放归的9只大熊猫中有7只在野外存活。所以科学家们一直致力于喂养大熊猫,然后将它们放归野外。故选E项。4.A根据下文可知,1981年,在陕西省的洋县,只发现了七只朱鹮。而近年来,中国甚至将朱鹮送往日本和韩国,以帮助该物种的生存。所以A项“另一个物种曾经被认为要灭绝了”。符合语境。5.C根据下文可知,继续实施重点保护工程,包括制定国家保护野生动植物名录,打击包括象牙在内的非法野生动物贸易。所以中国将继续加强野生动物保护。故选C项。
