21、Climate activist Henry Emson told Euronews that when he became a father seven years ago, he was worried about his family’s effect on the environment. After doing some research, he found the best way to eliminate their carbon footprint was by planting giant sequoia trees(巨型红杉树).
Giant sequoias are ideal for capturing carbon dioxide because they continue to grow consistently for centuries, storing CO2 over time. General Sherman, the world’s largest sequoia tree, has stored an estimated 1,500 tons of CO2 in its trunk over the last 2,200 years and could live another 800 years. The average human could generate close to 1,000 tons of CO2 over their lifetime, so planting one giant sequoia could effectively reduce the carbon footprint of more than one person.
After realizing the power giant sequoias have to fight climate change, Emson devoted his life to planting thousands in the UK by creating the One Life One Tree project. Its final goal is to plant 100,000 giant sequoias in the UK by 2030, and according to The Mirror, as of March 2022, it has already planted 700. Trees are currently being planted near Abergavenny in Wales and the project is expanding to Devon, the Lake District and Scotland.
While the common assumption is that these giant trees can only be grown in Northern California, they actually do well in the UK at a time when the sequoia population is threatened back home.
According to One Tree One Life, 95% of the old-growth sequoia population has been logged over the past two centuries and what remains is under threat from climate change. “A 10 year＋ drought and temperature increase have greatly damaged the health of the trees. A secondary impact of the drought is making them increasingly susceptible(易受影响的)to insect attack and fire,” the site says.
Considering the danger that climate change is causing giant sequoias in California, Emson’s work also benefits these trees. “They’re like climate refugees(难民)—we help them with assisted migration,” he told Euronews.
【1】What does the underlined word “eliminate” in the first paragraph probably mean?
A．Measure.
B．Remove.
C．Overlook.
D．Spread.
【2】How does the text mainly show giant sequoias’ ability to store CO2?

【3】Why did Henry Emson launch the One Life One Tree project?
A．To protect the environment by planting trees.
B．To test the adaptability of giant sequoia trees.
C．To save different kinds of endangered trees.
D．To prove the value of giant sequoias to his kids.
【4】What can be learned about Henry Emson’s work?
A．It disturbs the whole ecosystem of California.
B．It indirectly turns giant sequoias into refugees.
C．It helps promote the survival of giant sequoias.
D．It assists California in recovering from drought.
22、 While weather forecasters can make fairly accurate predictions, there's always the risk you'll be caught out while driving in the rain. But the days of having to quickly close your sunroof could soon be a thing of the past thanks to Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology.The firm is developing cars that can adapt automatically by closing windows and roofs or starting the heater if they detect bad weather is on the way. The weather forecasting system uses a set of air pressure, humidity（湿度）and light sensors（传感器）to help its vehicles predict changes in conditions and adapt to them. Cars equipped with the system could make slight changes to the air conditioning if it finds the weather is getting warmer during a journey or increase the cabin temperature if it will get colder.
The forecast may indicate there is a possibility of one or more weather conditions, such as rain, within a period of time, such as five minutes. The vehicle may then adapt to the local weather conditions. In particular, it may close one or more windows, or close a roof of the vehicle in response to a forecast being a sign of rain. Similarly windows could be darkened using electrochromic (电致变色的) glass to improve visibility if bright sunshine is forecast.
Although its unclear whether this technology will make its way to a production vehicle anytime soon, such a system would be advantageous on autonomous vehicles. Since there's no human driver present, the system will allow the vehicle to make it comfortable for its passengers, based on current weather conditions. It can also make the vehicle safer if it knows rain or snow is coming.
【1】How will Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology benefit drivers?
A. Vehicles can automatically drive themselves.
B. Vehicles can find positions and routes themselves,
C. Vehicles can act as mobile weather forecasting stations.
D. Vehicles can open windows and sunroofs automatically.
【2】What is the feature of the glass of a vehicle with the new technology?
A. It can help adjust the temperature.
B. It can still be clear in rainy days.
C. It is too strong to break into pieces.
D. Its colour can change with the sunshine.
【3】What can we know about the weather forecasting system from the text?
A. It is intellige nt enough to stop raining.
B. It makes the driver more comfortable.
C. It can't predict the weather accurately.
D. It makes autonomous cars safer in bad weather.
【4】Where might the text be taken from?
A. A book review. B. A science report.
C. A science fiction. D. A travel brochure.
23、 I’m not a full-time traveler. I spend most days working to earn a living just like you do. But whenever a chance arises for me to visit a far-off country, I jump at it.
When studying abroad in New Zealand, I travelled extensively all over the country with two friends. We booked everything from whale watching to a private flight over the Southern Alps, and racked up some impressive credit card bills. Another international student almost looked down her nose at our pricey adventures, declaring that she had come to New Zealand to study, not to empty her savings account on travel.
My question to her came. Why would you come halfway around the world to save your money and keep your nose pressed into a book every weekend? Would you go to China and not visit the Great Wall because it consumes money? Would you go to Italy and skip visiting the Vatican because it requires an admission ticket?
I know where I would like my life to go in the coming months and years. But there are no guarantees that things will go as planned. Practically, nothing will go as planned.
“Oh, I’ll travel when I retire.” “I’ll travel when the kids are grown.” “I’ll travel when the house is paid off.” How often we hear others say these? I hear these excuses all the time. But you know what occurs? Age. And stress. And, well, life. Life happens and by that time, you have bad knees and weak lungs and you simply cannot visit all those places you dreamed about in your youth. How sad! I don’t want to end up like that, holding on to youthful travel dreams that will never be reality.
So I often think, what if “sometime later” never came?
So if you are privileged enough to be able to afford to travel, then you should attack it with curiosity and energy and a sense of adventure.
So travel young, and travel far.
【1】Why did the author mention his travel experience in New Zealand?
A．To prove his belief in travel.
B．To show his enthusiasm for travel.
C．To attract readers’ attention.
D．To recall a wonderful experience.
【2】What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A．The excuses for failing to travel far.
B．The absolute barriers in the future life.
C．The uncertainties of future for travel.
D．The regrets of missing some journeys.
【3】Why is the author’s writing purpose?
A．To circulate the advantages of travel.
B．To share his own travel experience.
C．To convince readers to travel young.
D．To criticize the economical students.

26、请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Is youth lingo ruining the Chinese language?
Young people often create their own language that goes beyond rigid linguistic rules. This year’s latest slang (俚语) terms add a further simplification: the use of pinyin acronyms (首字母缩略词). “Awsl,” in pinyin, for instance,means “Ah, wo si le” (Oh, I’m gonna die), and is used if something is too cute or adorable to bear. “Pyq” stands for “pengyou quan”, the social feed on the popular Chinese social media app WeChat, and “nsdd” stands for “ni shuo de dui” (you’re right).
Teens want to be different from their parents, so it’s natural for them to create and use their own linguistic terms to show that. In doing so, young people are indeed driving linguistic change. They aren’t the only factor influencing language development, but they can indeed transform how future generations communicate.
Critics fear that Chinese internet slang will have the potential to negatively influence broader linguistic trends of Mandarin Chinese, in particular, the gradual taking over of pinyin. As pinyin gets widely used when texting or writing on mobile phone or computer, while less and less people write characters by hand, people gradually forget how to write them. The phenomenon has got a name in China: Character amnesia(健忘症).
