26、When a chunk of ice fell from a collapsing glacier (冰川) on the Swiss Alps’ Mount Eiger in 2017, part of the long deep sound it produced was too low for human ears to hear. But the continuous shaking held a key to calculating the ice avalanche’s (崩塌) critical characteristics.
Low-frequency sound waves called infrasound that travel great distances through the atmosphere are already used to monitor active volcanoes from afar. Now some researchers in this field have switched focus from fire to ice. Usually glaciers move far too slowly to generate an infrasound signal, which researchers pick up using detectors that track slight changes in air pressure. But a collapse—a sudden, rapid breaking of ice from the glacier’s main body—is an infrasound producer in large amounts. Glacial collapses drive ice avalanches, which pose an increasing threat to people in mountainous regions as rising temperatures weaken large fields of ice. A glacier “can become separate from the ground due to melting, causing bigger break-offs,” says University of Florence geologist Emanuele Marchetti, lead author of the new study. As the threat grows, scientists seek new ways to monitor and detect such collapses.
Researchers often use radar to track ice avalanches, which is accurate but expensive and can monitor only one specific location and neighboring avalanche paths. Infrasound, Marchetti says, is cheaper and can detect break-off events around much broader regions as well as multiple avalanches across a mountain. It is challenging, however, to separate a signal into its components such as traffic noises, individual avalanches and nearby earthquakes without additional measurements, says ETH Zurich glaciologist Malgorzata Chmiel. “The model used by Marchetti is a first close estimation for this,” she says. Isolating the relevant signal helps the researchers monitor an ice avalanche’s speed, path and volume from afar using infrasound.
Marchetti and his colleagues have set up collaborations around the continent to better understand signals that collapsing glaciers produce. They are also refining their analysis to figure out each ice avalanche’s physical details.
【1】What do we know about ice avalanches?
A.Ice avalanches can be detected through infrasound.
B.Ice avalanches are caused by change in air pressure.
C.Ice avalanches move too slowly to produce an infrasound signal.
D.Ice avalanches pose a bigger threat to people than volcanic eruptions.
【2】Which of the following is an advantage of infrasound?
A.The combination with other relevant signals.
B.The ability in picking up signals in wider areas.
C.The accuracy in locating only one certain avalanche.
D.The sensitivity in tracking slight air pressure changes.
【3】The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A.distinguishing different parts of a signal
B.adding measurements to receive signals
C.detecting multiple avalanches across a mountain
D.calculating the speed, path and volume of ice avalanches
【4】What might be the best title for the text?
A.From Fire to Ice
B.Nature’s Warning
C.Glacier Whispers
D.Secret of Ice Avalanches
27、It’s no secret now that the more time we spend on social media, the more we feel dissatisfied with ourselves. We tend to compare ourselves to influences and celebrities (well, famous people like Justin Bieber) — so it’s easy to understand how that can affect our confidence.
But, how often have you found yourself comparing your life to your friends? Engaging with social media shared by our friends can be more damaging than looking at content shared by celebrities, new research has found.
The study looking at how social media affects body image found that any social media engagement was significantly associated with lower ‘appearance satisfaction’. Additionally, it found that engaging with content posted by people the participants knew was more than twice as damaging as looking at content posted by strangers, including celebrities.
Viren Swami, Professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University, believes this is partly because we know it’s hard to attain the lives of celebrities or influences, but when we’re comparing ourselves to our friends, it feels like we should- or could-live the way they do.
“One possible explanation is that people may believe a post showing appearance as being much more acquirable if it comes from someone they know, adding expectation or pressure on the person engaging in the post, ” he said. “At the same time, people may be more critically engaged with posts by the likes of models and celebrities, and therefore assume the images they share to be more unrealistic. “
This is not just confined to body image though. We all have one area in our lives that triggers us. Maybe you’ve been searching for a new job for months and you find yourself on social media, envying your school friend who just landed their dream role. Maybe. . .
All this is to say the obvious: we only see part of people’s lives -and if it’s getting you down, you’re probably comparing your insides to other people’s outsides. Everyone has their struggles and life is indeed not perfect for anyone. So, put down your phone, get offline, be thankful and try to live your own life.
【1】What did the new study find?
A.Social media invites unfavorable comments.
B.Friends’ posts affect us more than celebrities’.
C.Celebrities have a negative influence on our life.
D.Body image causes more concern than social life.
【2】Why are we more likely to compare with our friends according to Swam?
A.They serve as role models.
B.We know the way they live.
C.Their lifestyles are accessible.
D.We are curious about their life.
【3】What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A.limited.
B.related.
C.devoted.
D.explored.
【4】What does the author suggest people do?
A.Find your dream and fight for it.
B.Stop comparing and be yourself.
C.Be grateful and lead a perfect life.
D.Stop complaining and get down to work.
28、Jane Goodall, the well-known scientist, is starting Trees for Jane on Tuesday, joining a global campaign to fight climate change by planting a trillion trees by 2030.
Goodall made it clear that planting is just one part of Trees for Jane. “The key is protecting existing forest because those big trees have already stored CO2,” she said in a National Geographic interview. Donations to Trees for Jane will support local groups working to stop destroying trees. And those who plant are asked to agree to care for the trees and monitor them until they’re mature(成熟的).
Of course, tree planting is not a substitute for reducing emissions (排放), said Susan Cook-Patton, senior forest restoration scientist for The Nature Conservancy. “The most important action is to reduce fossil fuel emissions. However, even if we rapidly reduce emissions, we’re still going to need to remove carbon from the atmosphere to prevent catastrophic warming. That’s why carbon removal approaches like re-growing trees remain important.”
Some tree-planting efforts have come under fire from some scientists as being ineffective since many programs don’t plant native species, essentially creating tree farms, not helping forests. And Cook-Patton’s message is clear, “Plant the right trees, in the right places, in the right way.” This means planting native trees where they historically lived.
Goodall said this agrees with the goal of Trees for Jane. She, noting that Trees for Jane encourages people to plant trees themselves or donate to support global efforts, said her love for trees dates back to her childhood. Nearly eight decades later, she is working tirelessly and selflessly to share the gift of trees with the entire world, for the good of the planet.
【1】What is the most vital measure to reduce emissions?
A.Stop cutting down trees.
B.cut down on fossil fuel emissions.
C.Remove carbon from the atmosphere.
D.Plant more trees.
【2】What does the underlined phrase “come under fire” mean?
A.Be criticized for.
B.Be burned under a tree.
C.Win the support of.
D.Argue violently.
【3】What kinds of character can we learn about Jane Goodall according to the text?
A.Determined
B.Optimistic
C.Humorous
D.Considerate
29、There’re some important days to remember in April.
First Modern Olympics
On April 6, 1896, King George Ⅰ of Greece welcomed people to take part in the Summer Olympic Games in Athens.
Back then, Athens was just a small village, and news about the Games was unable to reach many people. As a result, only 245 athletes took part in the games. They weren’t chosen by their countries like now. Instead, they came by themselves and paid for the journey themselves. Ever since then, the Summer Olympic Games have been held every four years in a different city around the world.
World Health Day
April 7 is World Health Day. This day is not just about hand washing and healthy eating. Each year a different theme is selected. For example, the theme of 2012 World Health Day was Ageing and Health.
In 2018, World Health Day focused on high blood pressure. The main causes of blood pressure include stress, too much salt in your food and too little exercise.
World Earth Day
We call the Earth our “mother”. However, our “mother” is facing lots of problems. April 22 is designated (指定) as World Earth Day. It’s a day to remind us to care about the planet. On this day people do things to help improve the environment and cut down their energy use. World Earth Day comes only once a year, but it reminds people to live in a green way every day. If we truly care about the planet, everyday can be Earth Day!
【1】Why did only 245 athletes take part in the first Olympic Games?
A.Because most people weren’t interested in it.
B.Because communication wasn’t developed.
C.Because King George Ⅰ didn’t allow the news to be spread.
D.Because the journey to Athens was too long and expensive.
【2】Which of the following isn’t the reason for high blood pressure?
A.Too much work.
B.Too much stress.
C.Too little exercise.
D.Too much salt.
【3】Why does the writer write the text?
A.To ask us to respect the tradition.
B.To tell us some important days in April.
C.To ask us to protect the environment.
D.To tell us how to celebrate those days.

32、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。
Emma was very excited Today was the championship baseball game! The winners would all get trophies(奖杯) and be the number one players in the town. Emma decided to bring home a trophy to put on her shelf. She had never won a trophy before.
She put on her red uniform and pulled her hair through the back of her baseball cap. She picked up her gloves and looked in the mirror. “I hope I get a hit today,” she said to herself.
On the way to the field, Emma felt nervous.
“Are you feeling OK, Emma?” her mother asked.
“I really don’t want to strike out(三击不中出局),” Emma said.
“Just keep your eye on the ball and don’t feel afraid. You can do it,” Emma’s mother said.
Emma was a great hitter in practice, but she had never hit a ball during a game. She always struck out.
When the game started, Emma cheered loudly for her friends. She caught a fly ball in the Outfield, and everyone cheered for her. Emma struck out when it was her turn to hit the ball, but her team was doing well.
The game was tied(平局), and it was her team’s last chance to score. The team’s coach encouraged, “Believe in yourselves, and you are the best.” Frankie was up first, and he hit the ball hard to get on base(垒). Next up was Henry, but he struck out. Kara hit the ball, but she was tagged out at first base. Frankie was able to run to third. That meant he could score and win the game if the next batter(击球手) got a good hit. Emma was the team’s last hope.
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。
