This is a bad3.(predict) for some 1.9 billion South Asians,4. use water from the glaciers not only for drinking but also for agriculture, hydroelectric power,and tourism. But the survey also looked at an immediate question: As the glaciers 5.(rapid) melt, where will all the watermore than a quadrillion gallons of it, almost the amount6.(contain) in Lake Hurongo?

The answer is that the Himalaya, for example, long defined by7.(it) glaciers,is becoming a mountain range defined by lake. In fact, another study found that from 1990 to 2010, more than 900 new glaciers-fed lakes 8.(form) across Asia's high mountain ranges.Because of those remote locations scientists must rely9.satellites to count them ,and new lakes appear to be growing so quickly that it's difficult for scientific teams to agree on the precise number. I's all happening much10.( fast) than we expected it to even five or ten years ago.

 

1.the 2.warning 3.prediction 4.who 5.rapidly 6.contained 7.its 8.were formed 9.on/upon 10.faster 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了气候变暖加速了冰川的融化,这给依靠冰川取水的地区以及喜马拉雅山脉都带来了极大的影响。 1. 考查冠词。句意:2019年早些时候,国际山地综合发展中心发布了迄今为止关于气候变化将如何影响全球冰川的最全面的分析报告,警告称,到2100年,约有1800座冰川将消失。根据句意可知此处表示“最全面的”,修饰形容词最高级most comprehensive用定冠词,故填the。 2. 考查非谓语动词。句意同上,the International Center for Integrated Mountain Development与warn之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,表示主动,用现在分词作伴随状语,故填warning。 3. 考查名词。句意:对于大约19亿南亚人来说,这是一个糟糕的预测。他们不仅将冰川的水用于饮用,还将其用于农业、水力发电和旅游业。分析句子结构,并结合句意可知,此处缺少名词作表语,故填prediction。 4. 考查非限定性定语从句。句意同上,分析句子结构可知此处为非限定性定语从句,关系词指代先行词South Asians(指人),并在从句中作主语,that不能引导非限制性定语从句,故填who。 5. 考查副词。句意:随着冰川的迅速融化,所有的水(超过十亿加仑,几乎相当于休伦湖所含的水量)将流向哪里?修饰动词melt用副词,故填rapidly。 6. 考查非谓语动词。句意同上,amount 与contain之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,表示被动,用过去分词作后置定语,故填contained。 7. 考查代词。句意:长期以来以冰川为标志的喜马拉雅山脉,现在正变成以湖泊为标志的山脉。修饰名词glaciers,用形容词性物主代词,故填its。 8. 考查时态语态。句意:事实上,另一项研究发现,从1990年到2010年,亚洲高山山脉上形成了900多个新的冰川湖泊。时间状语“from 1990 to 2010”表明事情发生在过去,主语more than 900 new glaciers-fed lakes与form之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,且谓语动词用复数,故填were formed。 9. 考查固定短语。句意:由于地理位置偏远,科学家们必须依靠卫星来计算湖泊的数量,而且新湖泊的数量似乎增长得如此之快,以至于科学团队很难就精确的数量达成一致。根据“satellites to count them”可知此处表示“依靠”,rely on/upon表示“依靠”,故填on/upon。 10. 考查形容词比较级。句意:这一切都比我们5年或10年前预测的要快得多。根据空后的“than”可知此处用形容词比较级,且空前的“much”也修饰形容词比较级,故填faster。

Water Skiing

Water skiing is an exciting water sport that can be a ton of fun. It takes a little patience to learn, but once you do, water skiing is a sport you can enjoy whenever you have a boat and enough flat water.

1.Every water skier needs water skis(划水板) and they differ depending on the size of the skier and the experience level of the skier. Of course, no one can water ski alone, so you will need to find at least two people to go with you on your water skiing adventure. You and everyone you go with will have more fun if the friends you go with also want to water ski.2.After you have the boat, the people, and the skis, you will also need a water skiing cable(缆绳) and a life jacket.

For your first time water skiing, you may want to either take a lesson from an expert or find a friend that has experience to teach you. 3.The observer rides in the boatbut watches the water skier for any signals and helps the driver know when to start and stop.

The person skiing starts by crouching(蹲伏)in the water, this is called a deep water start. The skis will float ,but you want your body to be in a crouching position in the water. Your skis tips should be pointing out of the water.4. When you are ready, you give a signal to the driver of the boat ,who starts speeding. Ideally you are pulled into an upright position with your skis underneath you, gliding along the surface of the water.5.

A.You need a boat. naturally,

B.Most people just enjoy regular water skiing.

C.The idea is to ski on the surface of the water.

D.Having a successful start will most likely take a few tries.

E.Your arms will be overstretched holding onto the cable tightly.

F.Before you start water skiing, there are a few supplies you'll need.

G.Of your two helpers, you need one to drive the boat and one to observe.

    If you read the news about honeybee survival, it's all very confusing.

The Hoover Institution's Dr. Henry Miller notes “The reality is that honeybee populations are not declining. According to U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization(FAO) statistics,the world's honeybee population rose to 80 million colonies(群落) in 2011 from 50 million in1960.”Meanwhile Jennifer Sass of the Natural Resources Defense Council points out “The number of managed honeybee colonies in the U. S. has dropped from four million hives(蜂群) in 1970 to 2.5 million today.”

Surprisingly, both of these claims are correct. Miller points to the “global” commercial honeybee-hive count, which has grown considerably. Sass points to domestic colony numbers only, which have in fact declined.

Far more bees are farmed for making honey than for pollination(传粉) services. Since more honey is now made overseas than it was in the past, more hives are kept overseas, and fewer in the United States and Europe. And the global number of commercial hives and honey they produce has grown to meet the demands of an expanding world population. Such shifts offer no evidence of a honeybee hive crisis. They simply represent the market forces of supply and demand.

The FAO data also clarify that national or even regional declines in the size of the managed honeybee population cannot prove claims of a global pollinator decline or a pollination crisis. However, it emphasizes that solutions to those problems must be motivated locally, rather than globally.

Solutions will follow only if we take a non-subjective look at the issues, so we can address them appropriately rather than have a crisis mentality. As I highlight in a recent post for The Hill,a big part of the solution lies at the very local level: with the beekeepers, farmers, and communities that surround them.

1.What makes the news confusing?

A.Various species. B.Different affects.

C.Complicated statistics. D.Contradictory conclusions.

2.What contributes to the growth of commercial hives?

A.The claims of the FAO.

B.The shift of honey export.

C.The increasing demands of honey.

D.The more services of pollination.

3.What's the author's attitude to the honeybee population issue?

A.Supportive. B.Objective.

C.Confused. D.Doubtful.

4.What would be the best title for the text?

A.Honeybee Crisis Solved or Not?

B.Honeybee Population Declining or Not?

C.Honeybee Market Global or Local?

D.Honeybee Research Global or Local?

    During the COVID-19 crisis, even the simple act of buying groceries has been completely transformed. For seniors this task is even more challenging. Concordia University's ACT project team has joined with community partners in the neighbourhood to fill this gap. They've rapidly created a new program-COVID-19 Grocery Response NDG.

The program uses a model that pairs volunteers with seniors, based on availability and language. Those volunteers are trained by ACT's team via video conferencing and then given a list of older adults. The volunteer calls the individuals and takes their order, working with grocer offerings of a Provigo store in the area. When the call is over, the order gets sent to Provigo, which gathers and delivers the order to the senior. It won't take the place of the work of the food bank; seniors are paying for their groceries.

There is also an important social element to the call, which doubles as a friendly check -in. The volunteer chats a bit with the senior, who may be very lonely and anxious. One volunteer says it has also been a rewarding experience and gives her the opportunity to help others while staying at home, which they are all being encouraged to do.

The program is a response to a number of factors, including the fact that many older adults are on a fixed income and may not have the internet access needed to order groceries online. It is targeting seniors who aren't able to access New Hope's usual meals on wheels service.

So far the project is a success, with a growing number of volunteers and seniors. As for what's next, Concordia is optimistic but acknowledges that the team will need to be nimble to accommodate the changing realities of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are at a critical time and we need to do everything we can, together, to help out.

1.What do the volunteers do to help the seniors?

A.Help them pay the bill. B.Send their order to the store.

C.Write a shopping list for them. D.Deliver their groceries lo the door.

2.What can we infer about the programme from paragraph 3?

A.It benefits both sides. B.It helps the store survive.

C.It goes beyond expectation. D.It encourages people to purchase online.

3.Who might be the potential client of the program?

A.Daisy aged 45 with a heavy debt. B.David who enjoys meals on wheels service.

C.Alexander aged 75 with a retirement pension. D.Elspeth who knows noting about online shopping.

4.What does the underlined word “nimble” probably mean?

A.Flexible. B.Beneficial.

C.Accessible. D.Qualified.
