21、 Sri Lanka plans to store and use a billion cubic meters of rainwater each year to support irrigation and power generation. The rainwater would go into the sea if it is not used.
The island country in South Asia is building the new water management system in the country's dry zone. Climate change has severely hurt the area in the past 10 years. The region is also suffering a severe water crisis. The area covers the northern and eastern parts of the country. It is home to about one-third of Sri Lanka's twenty million people. It is also mainly agricultural land.
Experts say the project could use enough water to fill two of the country's largest reservoirs (水库), Victoria and Randenigala. The government and donors are paving for the $675 million project. Work begins this month and should be completed by December 2024.
The plan has been one of the nation’s largest water-related projects in the past years. It includes the construction of two new reservoirs and 260 kilometers of new canals linking existing reservoirs. The aim is to help the dry zone better regulate its water supply for power generation and farming.
Shanmugasivanathan is a top official with the Department of Irrigation. He said that rain patterns have been changing and the dry zone is getting less water now. He said Sri Lanka needs to make the most of the water usage.
The country's rainfall is 2, 000 millimeters per year. About half falls in the dry zone. Most of the farming there depends on irrigation. Small water tanks hold water from the region’s large reservoirs.
Mr. Shanmugasivanathan said the dry zone faces the extremes of floods and drought as the rain patterns have changed. But, he said there is no system in place to capture flood waters, so drought can happen even in years of floods.
【1】What’s the meaning of the underlined word "regulate" in the fourth paragraph?
A．Reduce.
B．Limit.
C．Control.
D．Change.
【2】How much may the rainfall be in the dry zone per year?
A．980 millimeters.
B．2, 000 millimeters.
C．675 millimeters.
D．260 millimeters.
【3】What do we know about the dry zone in Sri Lanka?
A．It is mainly about industrial land.
B．It is home to about 20 million people.
C．It is going through a severe water shortage.
D．It covers the southern and eastern parts.
【4】What can we possibly infer from the new water management system?
A．It will play an important role in solving the drought.
B．The seawater can be made better use of for farming.
C．There will be more rainfall after its completion.
D．It will be the largest water-related project in Asia.
22、 The oldest and most common source of renewable energy known to man, biomass（生物质） is one of the most important forms energy production in the United States and elsewhere. Since such a wide variety of biomass materials is everywhere — from trees and grasses to agricultural and city — life wastes —biomass promises to play a continuing role in providing power and heat for millions of people around the world.
According to the Union of Concerned Scientists(UCS), biomass is a kind of renewable energy source that produces no carbon dioxide(二氧化碳), because the energy it contains comes from the sun. When plant matter is burned, it gives off the sun’s energy. In this way, biomass serves as a sort of natural battery(电池) for storing the sun’s energy. As long as biomass is produced continuously —with only as much grown as is used— the “battery” lasts forever.
According to the Energy Information Administration, biomass has been one of the leading renewable energy sources in the United States for several years running through 2007, making up between 0.5 and 0.9 percent of the nation’s total electricity supply. In 2008-although the numbers aren’t all in yet-wind power probably took over first place because of the rapid development of wind farms across the country.
Producing power from biomass helps reduce some 11 million tons of carbon dioxide each year. Some homeowners also try to make their own heat by using biomass materials. Such practice may save homeowner’s money, but it also produces a lot of pollution. So, the best way is to encourage power plants to use it.
【1】We learn from the text that in 2008 ______.
A.Wind power would be the leader of renewable energy.
B.there was a rapid growth of electricity production
C.biomass might become the main energy source
D.0.5~0.9 of power supply came from biomass
【2】Why does the author encourage power plants to use biomass?
A.To prevent the waste of energy.
B.To increase production safety.
C.To reduce pollution.
D.To save money.
【3】Where does the text probably come from?
A.A research plan. B.A science magazine
C.A book review. D.A business report.
23、Engineers at Deakin University have developed a new smart generation schoolbag that will end the days when students end up forgetting their homework, particularly since the smart schoolbag is capable of completing its own morning checklist.
According to a recent press release, the smart schoolbag comes with built-in hardware and software that works to ensure it is packed correctly for each day’s timetable, including lunch and sports equipment.
The bag was designed by Dr Hamid Abdi alongside Masters students at Deakin University. It uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags (标签) to detect items in the bag and Internet of Things (IOT) technology, which extends Internet connectivity to everyday objects. “RFID technology allows any user to detect items in the bag in a contactless way,” Dr Abdi says. The Internet of Things (IOT) technology is employed to check its contents against the daily school plan. Schools or parents can enter data about the activities of each day to the system’s IOT server. The server then links these activities to the RFID tags placed on the items needed. The smart school-bag can tell what items are not required, ensuring that the bag is no heavier than it needs to be.
The smart schoolbag will save a lot of time and stress that occurs when homework, hats or lunches are left home by mistake, especially if that requires parents to quickly race home to collect the missing item.
While the system can be fitted to any schoolbag, the team have designed a sample of the smart schoolbag that includes the smartphone application. Dr Abdi and his team are looking for commercial partners to take the project to the next level.
【1】Why do the engineers develop the smart schoolbag?
A．To give a morning call.
B．To help homework correcting.
C．To reduce study pressure.
D．To remind pupils of school items.
【2】What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the smart schoolbag?
A．Its application.
B．Its working principle.
C．Its advantage.
D．Its characteristics.
【3】What does Dr Abdi expect of the smart schoolbag?
A．I’ll replace parental duties.
B．I’ll ensure academic progress.
C．I’ll reach consumers soon.
D．I’ll be environment-friendly.
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．A Smart Schoolbag Saves Time and Stress
B．A Smart Schoolbag Will Replace an Ordinary Bag
C．The Latest System of Detecting Missing Items
D．The First Generation of a Smart Schoolbag
24、He says the problem with teachers is, “What will a kid learn from someone who chose to become a teacher?” He reminds the other dinner guests that it's true what they say about teachers: Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.
I decide to bite my tongue instead of biting his and stop myself from reminding the other dinner guests that it’s also true what they say about lawyers — that they make money from the misfortune of others.

And then I make them read.
I teach them to solve math problems that they once thought impossible.
I make them understand that if you have brains then you follow your heart and if someone ever tries to judge you by what you make, you teach them a lesson.
Let me make this simple for you, so you know what I say is true: I make a great difference! What about you?
