21、 Where should an adventurous tourist go? After you've done sightseeing in London, shopping in New York, enjoyed the local food in Paris, and danced to your heart's content at the Brazilian carnival, where else can you go? What attractive tourist destination awaits you?
Well, Antarctica sounds like the holiday of a lifetime! It's considered the last great wilderness on Earth. Just a few scientists in research stations share the icy landscape with penguins and other animals which can struggle with the low temperatures.
Tourism began in Antarctica in the 1950s and it's still small part. About 37,000 tourists are expected there this season, but many won't even leave the boat.
The BBC’s Juliet Rix visited the frozen continent and asked herself if she should be there at all, causing potential problems to such a sensitive environment. Her tour guide admitted that all visitors leave a footprint and they all go to the same places, the accessible coastline, which is also where the penguins and seals go to raise.
But some people believe that if carefully controlled, tourism can be good for Antarctica. It has no native population and it needs advocates. Visitors to the icy continent might be ready to support and even to fund its preservation. And they're likely to engage in the discussion about global warming, which has led to the melting of glaciers.
According to Rix, guidelines are followed when you're about to set foot in Antarctica and tourists have to disinfect their boots to make sure no alien species are introduced.
And once on land, there's no eating or smoking. Rocks, bone fragments—nothing should be taken as a souvenir and nothing should be left behind.
Tourists fortunate enough to visit the Antarctic must be aware that this is not their home and keep their fingers crossed that future generations will also be able to enjoy such breathtaking views.
【1】What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A.The Antarctic has become the best place for people to travel.
B.Only scientists can be allowed to go to Antarctic.
C.Antarctic is less affected by human activities.
D.No animals can survive in Antarctic expect penguins.
【2】Juliet Rix’s travel in Antarctic mentioned in the fourth paragraph indicates that .
A.whether tourists should go to Antarctic or not should be considered carefully
B.governments should take measures to stop tourists from going to Antarctic
C.the animals’ habitat in Antarctic has been seriously affected by tourism
D.only journalists begin to pay attention to the environmental protection in Antarctic
【3】What does the underlined word “disinfect” in the sixth paragraph probably mean?
A.Clean. B.Move.
C.Remove. D.Change.
22、British sculptor Jason Taylor has made it his mission to use his talent to conserve our ecosystems by creating underwater museums. Over the years, the environmentalist has put over 850 massive artworks underwater worldwide. On February 1, 2021, Taylor launched his latest work——The Underwater Museum of Cannes.
The main goal was to bring attention to the fact that our oceans need our help, Taylor told Dezeen. ——Ocean ecology has been destroyed by human activity in the Mediterranean over the past few decades, and it is not obvious what is taking place when observing the sea from afar.
The Underwater Museum of Cannes contains 6 sculptures featuring local residents of various ages. They range from Maurice, an 80-year-old fisherman, to Anouk, a 9-year-old student. Towering over 6-feet-tall and weighing 10 tons, the faces are sectioned into two parts, with the outer part like a mask. The mask indicates that the world’s oceans appear powerful and unbeatable from the surface but house an ecosystem that is extremely fragile to careless human activities.
Though the waters surrounding the sculptures now appear a pristine blue, the seabed was filled with old boat engines, pipes, and other human-made trash when the project began about four years ago. Besides eliminating the trash, Taylor also restored the area’s sea grass. Just one square meter of the sea grass can generate up to 10 liters of oxygen daily. The sea grass also helps prevent coastal erosion and provides habitats for many ocean creatures.
The idea of creating an underwater museum was to draw more people underwater and develop a sense of care and protection. Taylor told Dezeen. ——If we threw unwanted waste near a forest, there would be a public outcry. But this is happening every day in our surrounding waters and it largely goes unnoticed.
【1】Why does the outer part of the sculptures look like a mask?
A．To popularize the features of the locals.
B．To remind people to protect themselves.
C．To stress the sensitiveness of the ecosystem.
D．To reflect people’s protection of the ocean.
【2】What’s paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．How the project was started.
B．How the sea grass was restored.
C．Why the surroundings were improved.
D．What recovery effort the project made.
【3】What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 4?
A．recycling
B．removing
C．abolishing
D．assessing
【4】What can we infer from what Jason Taylor said in the last paragraph?
A．Forests play a more important role in ecosystems.
B．The destruction caused to the ocean is noticeable.
C．The situation of the ocean is easily ignored.
D．People have zero tolerance to damage done to nature
【5】What might be the best title for the text?
A．The Underwater Museum, a long way to go.
B．The Underwater Museum, a big difference to the sea.
C．The Underwater Museum, a masterpiece of Jason Taylor.
D．The Underwater Museum, an appeal to conserve ecosystems.
23、 The Notre Dame fire has been put out, but its spire and a large portion of its wooden roof have been damaged. The terrible destruction causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world. On Chinese social media network Wechat a common comment on the disaster is: "What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore. "
But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely via a video game called Assassin's Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. Further, with virtual reality technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage.
The idea of digitizing ancient buildings, making digital models of them so their data can be saved，dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers，building 3D models with multiple images，as well as measuring everything precisely，engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one.
As computers and smartphones are hugely popular，the digital replica（复制品）has great use value. First，it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them，which helps protect them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore，it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000，a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo，which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting the site in the following years. Above all，it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Even if the original ones are damaged one day，people can still know what they were like and can build a replica if desired.
Of course，however precise a model is，it is not the original. Time is the biggest threat to a country's architectural heritage，which will always become ruins with the passing of time. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future，but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.
【1】What can we see about Notre Dame in the game？
A. The damaged parts. B. Its wooden shape.
C. Its original look. D. The big fire.
【2】What will engineers do to create a digital replica of the ancient buildings？
A. Improve the technology needed. B. Scan the photos of the buildings
C. Build 3D models of full size. D. Measure all the parts exactly.
【3】What value does a digital replica have？
A. It keeps the relics safe. B. It helps to guard the relics.
C. It gathers data of the relics. D. It advertises the history of the relics.
【4】How does the author prove the digital copy has vital practical importance？
A. By comparison. B. By giving examples.
C. By classification D. By listing data.
【5】What is the authors attitude towards the application of digital technology？
A. Doubtful. B. Delighted.
C. Supportive. D. Conservative.
24、The U.S. has countless secret swimming holes throughout most states, many of which you’ve likely never heard of unless you’re from the area.
Havasu Falls (Arizona)
This attractive waterfall in the Grand Canyon is undoubtedly a destination spot requiring a 10-mile walk to the falls. You can take a guided tour to the falls, or make it on your own. The Havasu Falls are on the Havasupai Indian Reservation, which means you’ll need to get a permit to visit — this has become increasingly difficult as more people discover this hidden place.
Homestead Crater (Utah)
The Homestead Crater is hidden under a rock dome(圆顶) with an opening at the top that allows for sunlight and air. It was once only accessible by that top opening, but there is now easy access through a side path for visitors. Go for a swim in this beautiful mineral water spring.
Hamilton Pool (Austin)
Hamilton Pool was created when an underground river’s roof fell down suddenly; exposing what is now the swimming hole and creating a 50-foot waterfall that flows over the above limestone(石灰岩). You’ll have to reserve beforehand to gain entry to the Hamilton Pool Preserve.
Chutes and Ladders (Maui)
To get to this secret swimming hole, you’ll have to take a rope 40 feet down the face of a cliff, and then climb down about 8 feet of lava rock to the pool. Once there, however, you’ll be glad you made the journey. The swimming hole is on the edge of the ocean — a natural pool, you could say — with a depth that invites you to jump in without crowds of people around to watch.
【1】What is a must if you visit Havasu Falls?
A．A car.
B．A guide.
C．A permit.
D．A stick.
【2】How do visitors enter Homestead Crater now?
