21、 On Dec 22, China became the third country in the world after Japan and the US to have a carbon dioxide（CO2）monitoring satellite.
Named Tansat, as "tan" is the Chinese word for carbon, the satellite moves around Earth at about 700 kilometers above the ground. There, it can “see” clearly how much CO2 there is in the air and how it is moving.
How is TanSat able to do that？When sunlight travels through the air, the CO2 molecules（分子）take in different colors from the light. The satellite then looks at these colors to find out how much CO2 there is in the air.
“The TanSat has very good vision（视力）, and it can tell changes in CO2 as small as 1 percent, ” said Yin Zeng shan, one of the satellite's designers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, according to Xinhua News Agency.
But there is a question. When CO2 can already be measured from ground stations, why do we need a satellite that does the same thing？
The truth is that they don't do exactly the same thing. According to Zhang Peng, vice director of the National Satellite Meteorological Center, the data from ground stations is limited and it does not cover the ocean area, which takes up more than 70 petcent of Earth's surface.
But TanSat has solved the problem. It has a bird's eye view of the Earth, covering both the land and the ocean. It can also change its mode（模式）and position when looking at the ocean area because the water can reflect light. This light may change the data if its normal mode is used.
More importantly, China is now working on its goal of producing less CO, , starting from 2030 or earlier. To meet that goal, it will need to keep track of every bit of progress that it's making.
And with TauSat, China will have first-hand, detailed data of CO2 emissions in different areas, provinces and parts of the ocean, no longer having to use data from Japan and the US.
【1】Which of the following about TanSat is TRUE？
A.It collects the CO2 in different areas above the ground.
B.It gets CO2 data by studying the colors of air.
C.It has been developed with the help of Japan and the US.
D.It has different modes to suit different weather conditions.
【2】By reporting that the TanSat has very good "vision", the article shows that_______________.
A.the satellite uses many different kinds of cameras.
B.the satellite is very sensitive.
C.the satellite can capture every change in CO2.
D.the satellite can reflect light at 700 kilometers above the ground.
【3】What can be concluded from the last paragraph?
A.TanSat is specially designed to reduce China's CO2 emissions.
B.China did not have any detailed data of CO2 emissions before.
C.TanSat will play a key role in helping to reduce China's CO2 emissions.
D.China is going to share its data of CO2 emissions with other countries.
【4】What could be the best title for the passage?
A.Making great achievements B.Cutting CO2 emissions
C.Monitoring the ocean D.Checking more carbon
22、Average age is rising around the world—a demographic (人口统计) change that may pose a significant challenge to efforts to slow down climate change.
Hossein Estiri at Harvard University and Emilio Zagheni of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany, have found that energy use increases as we get older, and not just because we tend to get wealthier. An ageing population could mean a greater proportion of society with higher energy use, their study suggests.
They combined two decades, worth of data from thousands of US households and used this to build a model to reveal how energy use varied across 17 age groups between 1987 and 2009. They found that, on average, children’s energy consumption climbs as they grow up, before dipping slightly when they leave home. Consumption then rises again when people hit their 30s, before briefly dropping after 55, and then beginning to climb again. The study involved factors such as income, local climate and the age, type and size of a person’s home. The increase in energy use at various points in our lifespan (寿命) seems to be the result of life style and how our needs change as we age.
Why does demand grow so much in our 30s?“We need more of everything. More space, a bigger TV two fridges,” says Estiri. The study found that, in warmer parts of the US, energy use increases in people over the age of 65—probably as a result of increased use of air conditioning, This suggests that there is a feedback effect between climate change and an ageing population that will only make matters worse.
Heat waves have become more common in the US in recent years and are expected to become more frequent due to global warming. More older people using more electrical energy to keep cool as temperatures rise could add to emissions, and thus drive more warming until our energy supply becomes entirely fossil fuel-free.
“This confluence of population, ageing and climate change on energy demand is really important to start thin king about,” says Estiri. Benjamin Sovacool at the University of Sussex, UK, says the work shows the importance of demographics when it comes to cutting carbon emissions. Most modelling of climate change mitigation (减缓气候变化的模型) assumes people’s energy consumption either stays the same or only changes by a small amount over time.
“This study directly challenges that entire body of research by forcing it to fight with the temporality and complexity of the consumption of energy,” says Sovacool.
Catherine Mitchell at the University of Exeter, UK, says the research could have an important influence on policy makers. “What the paper says is that there is a lot of work about how buildings use energy, but probably not enough about how the people in them use energy,” she says.
【1】By saying “not just because we tend to get wealthier” in Paragraph 2, the writer probably means that .
A．poor people can’t bring down the high demand for energy
B．a comfortable life is not the main cause of in creased energy use
C．there are some other reasons leading to the increase in energy consumption
D．people being wealthy or not has nothing to do with the rise of energy consumption
【2】The underlined word “confluence” in Paragraph 6 has the similar meaning to .
A．change
B．meeting
C．decrease
D．possibility
【3】What is the shortcoming of most modeling of climate change mitigation?
A．It is expensive and difficult to promote.
B．It overestimates the household energy consumption.
C．It did not take climate change adaptation into account.
D．It regards energy consumption as stable or as only slightly changing.
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．More emphasis should be put on people’s energy use.
B．The government can't do much without the support of the study.
C．It is the buildings, not the people in side, that consume the majority of the energy.
D．Policymakers have been working on how to cut down people’s energy use.
23、I was born in Karachị, Pakistan. After completing my bachelor’s degree in MBBS, I got a scholarship in 2016 from China Scholarship Council to do a master’s in Neurosurgery at Southeast University Nanjing, China. I couldn’t wait to start my postgraduate study in China. In my first year. I learned the Chinese language, and passed the HSK level 5. It helped me a lot as a volunteer during the COVID-19 pandemic(流行病).
In February 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic was on peak, the school chose me as a volunteer. which was a great honor for me. It was challenging to decide whether I should stay here or go back home because my family forced me to return home. At that time, I thought I must stand out in this critical moment so I was handed a lot of responsibilities related to the students’ daily needs.
Every day, I had to take an order from students for their dinners and brought food for them. Besides, I had to record their temperatures three times a day, for which the universities had given a thermometer(温度计) to them all. Sometimes if. a student felt sick, it was my responsibility to accompany him to the hospital. Also, I had to go to the supermarket to bring groceries for them、 for which I had to ask every individual the daily necessities they needed. I provided psychological assistance, emotional comfort, and counseling to them. As the pandemic was getting better, I must stay at the dormitory gate to ensure that the students were wearing masks, having the permission cards to go out, and request them to come back on time.
It has sharpened my skills in becoming in better fender and developed n sense of pride in contributing to community.

24、MOOCs, an acronym（缩写）for “massive open online courses,” mark an important, possibly revolutionary, development in education．These courses are online, free of charge, and open to anyone in the world who has a laptop and an Internet connection．Moreover, they are mainly offered by elite universities like Standford, Berkeley, Harvard and Columbia．
The courses, like normal college courses, are sequenced（按顺序排好）by difficulty, enabling students to progress from beginners to the advanced．The courses cover not only a broad range of technical subjects such as math and computer science, but also courses in the social sciences and the humanities （人文学科）．
Though MOOCs are not offered for credit and degree, many students enroll in the courses for real skills or knowledge which they can put to some practical use．Some students even form online study groups, or in-person groups with students who live nearby．
The format seems superior to the traditional school class．The average quality of the lecturer is much higher, because students do not have to stick with a mediocre（平庸的） lecturer．
Besides, students can scroll back or forward—in short, they can go at their own learning speed, which they cannot do in a live lecture．And, of great importance, they do not have to travel anywhere to attend an online lecture．One can obtain a first-class American college education wherever he or she lives and however little money he or she has．
There is a problem of asking questions of the lecturer in a class of ten thousand students, but some MOOCs have solved it by allowing students to post questions online for a vote, and only the most popular questions are put to the lecturer．
In a knowledge era, lifelong learning is not confined to a traditional classroom．Of course, students enrolling in MOOCs cannot be compared with those who are in traditional universities, but we need to rethink what a “students” is．
Students in MOOCs are very clever, have work experience, and in many cases, have already developed a set of core competences．Moreover, they also offer unique international perspectives that would be the envy of any school classroom．
【1】Which of the following statements is NOT true about MOOCs?
A．The word “MOOCs” is an acronym for “Massive open online campuses．”
B．Anyone who has a computer and an Internet connection can take MOOCs．
C．MOOCs are usually offered by first-class universities in the world．．
D．MOOCs may be a breakthrough in the development of education．
【2】Students enroll in MOOCs mainly for ________．
A．credits B．degrees C．skills D．study groups
【3】MOOCs seem to have an advantage over traditional school classes because________．
①the average quality of the lecturer is higher
②students can travel to many places when taking MOOCs
③students can learn at their own study pace
④there is a problem of asking questions in traditional classes
A．①② B．②③ C．①③ D．②④
【4】Which word is the best to describe students enrolling in MOOCs?
A．Mediocre B．Creative
C．Practical D．Competent
【5】Which of the following words does not have the same meaning as the underlined word “perspectives”in the last Paragraph?
A．Vision B．View C．Outlook D．Scenery

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom was born and grew up in Milan. Until he was 13 years old, he never wanted to leave his hometown. But last year, Tom’s father’s investment went bad， wiping out the family and sending his parents to prison. As a teenager under 16 years old, Tom was forced to go to Newcastle in the northeast of England to stay with his uncle Lawrence.
Tom had a lot of difficulties in the new environment. He didn’t like the food in England. Nobody could forecast the weather in Newcastle. He had to start learning the second foreign language in his new school. Pocket money was not enough as usual. Almost every subject was a challenge for him. Most importantly, he had no friends. It seemed nobody knew him and he knew nobody in the school.
On an early summer evening, when Tom was going home alone from school as usual, a man called him from behind. Tom turned around and saw Andy, his PE teacher, standing in front of him.
“You know, the school will have a swimming competition next month. There will be all kinds of races. Will you participate?” Andy asked.
Tom took a look at Andy with doubt and answered, “You sure? Me? No, I won’t. I can swim, but I’m slower than a snail.”
Andy smiled and then said, “Yes. Indeed. You are, in breaststroke(蛙泳)，in backstroke, and in butterfly, but not in freestyle. So join the freestyle race! 200-meter freestyle is the game suitable for you.”
Tom was speechless at that moment. He had never known someone in the school was observing him and caring for him.
“I don’t think I can win anything.” Tom was still a little puzzled.
“But you may get more recognition and consequently you can make some friends. That is more important than prizes,” Andy responded immediately.
Having hesitated for a while, Tom agreed to have a try.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Every afternoon for the next month, Tom trained really hard.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Tom dived into the pool confidently like other competitors.
