8、d waste as tiring.But Bryant Liu,13,looked at his leaf-blanketed lawn and saw a potential source of energy.Right now,most people fuel their cars with petrol made from fossil fuels(化石燃料),which are not renewable.So scientists are making biofuels.For example,engineers can produce bioethanola type of al

9、cohol fuelfrom sugars in plants.Turning to dead leaves,however,presents a challenge for biofueldevelopers.Dead leaves have sugar,but they also have lots of lignina tough substance(物质)that strengthens the walls of plant cells.To get to the sugars inside,scientists first have to break down the lignin

10、with chemicals.Bryant wanted to see if he could get sugar for biofuels out of dead leaves bypretreating those leaves with acids or bases(碱).The young researcher gathered upthree garbage bags full of leaves from his yard.Then he went to his fatherslaboratory.He broke the dead leaves into pieces,and t

11、hen carefully loaded equalnumbers of them into test tubes.Afterwards,he added either an acid solution or abase solution at different concentrations to the test tubes.“That was really fun,”Bryant says.“It made me feel like a real scientist.”Finally,the teen found thatpretreating leaves with either an

12、 acid or base encouraged sugar to get out from hisyards leaves.However,he explains,the process is still too expensive.Bryant now wants to take the sugars from his finding to the next stepmaking ethanol.If he could create a better method for producing biofuels,he explains,people would need fewer foss

13、il fuels and“have a renewable energy source for the future”.And,Bryant adds,if people use all those dead leaves for biofuels,he and other kids may have to do less cleaning each fall.【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述的是Bryant通过实验,将枯叶用酸和碱处理提取糖,并计划下一步将它们制成生物燃料的故事。1.What does the author intend to do in the first two

16、cids and bases.【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第三段的“Bryant wanted to see if he could get sugar for biofuels out of dead leaves by pretreating those leaves with acids or bases.”可知,Bryant实验的目的是用酸和碱从枯叶中提取糖。故选D。3.What is Bryants next step?A.To produce biofuels from dead leaves.B.To promote the use of biofuels worldwide.

17、C.To make his pretreating process less costly.D.To encourage other kids to collect dead leaves.【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第四段的“Bryant now wants to take the sugars from his finding to the next stepmaking ethanol.”可知,Bryant的下一步是用枯叶生产生物燃料。故选A。4.Which of the following best describes Bryant?A.He is caring.B.He is de

27、”和下文“自然醒”之间的对应,引出下文。故选C。5.【解析】选E。根据下文“Such anxieties can transform lack of sleep into chronic insomnia.”中的such anxieties提示,可知此空处应选择一个具体的anxiety。E项“人们经常觉得睡不好的话第二天做什么也做不好。”属于一种anxiety。故选E。.阅读理解(2021西宁高二检测)Do you want to live another 100 years or more?Some experts say that scientific advances will one

29、and thats a conservative estimate(保守的估计).”At the conference in San Francisco,Donald Louria,a professor at NewJersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well asnanotechnology(纳米技术)make it likely that humans will live in the futurebeyond what was possible in the past.“There is a g

30、reat effort so that people canlive from 120 to 180 years,”he said.“Some have suggested that there is no limitand that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”However,many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it andsay the human body is just not designed to last past about 120

31、years.Even withhealthier lifestyles and less disease,they say failure of the brain and organs willfinally lead all humans to death.Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live.“It remains to be seen if you pass 120,you know;could you be healthy enough to have good quality of

32、 life?”said Leonard Poon,director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre.“At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”【文章大意】这是一篇议论文。人类是否能够活得更久更健康?科学家对此有不同的看法。1.By saying“we are knocking at the door of immortality”,Michael Zey means_.A.they have got some idea

33、s about living foreverB.they believe that there is no limit of livingC.they are able to make people live past the present life spanD.they are sure to find the truth about long living【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知,这位教授认为到2075年就可以实现永生,由此判断出这里的含义是科学家们对如何获得永生有了一些想法。故选A项。2.Donald Lourias attitude towards long

34、living is that _.A.the human body is designed to last past about 120 yearsB.it is possible for humans to live longer in the futureC.it is still doubtful how long humans can liveD.people can live from 120 to 180 years【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,唐纳德教授说使用基因以及纳米技术的进步表明未来的人类将比过去活得更久。所以这里教授觉得人类在未来会活得更久是有可能的。故选

35、B项。3.The underlined word“it”(in Paragraph 4)refers to _.A.a great effortB.the conservative estimateC.the idea of living from 200 to 300 yearsD.the idea of living beyond the present life span【解析】选D。词义猜测题。根据第三段末尾句以及第四段首句可知,有些科学家认为,人类可以活到200年,300年或者500年,人类的寿命是没有限制的,但是许多专攻人类寿命的科学家对此却抱有疑问。所以这里的it指代前一段提到的

36、人类的寿命可以超越现在的寿命跨度。故选D项。4.What would be the best title for this text?A.No Limit for Human LifeB.Living Longer or NotC.Science,Technology and Long LivingD.Healthy Lifestyle and Long Living【解析】选B。主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“I think we are knocking at thedoor of immortality”以及第四段“However,many scientists who specialize

37、 inaging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last pastabout 120 years.”可知,短文的最佳标题应为“是否活得更久”。故选B项。.完形填空One afternoon I toured an art museum while waiting for my husband to finisha business meeting.I was looking forward to a quiet view of the masterpieces(杰作).A young c
