Here are some examples of bad behaviour:◎Playing truant(missing school without permission from parents).◎Stealing, smoking, hitting, swearing(说脏话), running, kissing.◎Cheating in exam s.◎Calling a teacher or another pupil bad names.◎Not doing homework.◎Not listening or not paying attention in lessons.◎Wearing unsuitable clothes.Here are some of the ways that UK school children can be punished:Exclusion:a pupil is asked to leave the school and not come back. The pupil has to find a new school or a different method of education.Suspension:a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons until the school has a meeting about their situation. Suspension can last from one to 45 days. The pupil is usually given work to do at home with a special teacher.Detention:a pupil is asked to stay after school and work for 30-60 minutes before they Can leave.Lines:a pupil has to write a sentence many times(e.g.100or more) on a sheet of paper, e.g. “I must not shout in class”.Freya MacDonald, a 15-year-old pupil from Scotland, made the news when she refused to accept her school’s punishment. Her family says that she was given 11 detentions for trivial things in class and coming into school through a fire door.Freya says that repeated detentions disrupted her fight to an education under Scottish law and made it difficult for her to learn. She refused to return until the school respected her civil rights. She wants the headmaster and her teachers to sign a letter to promise this. Hundreds of schools in Scotland were told not to use detention as a punishment because of her legal action.Many UK schools now give parents a home-school contract, explaining their discipline and rules. Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the school’s rules and discipline and that they are responsible for their child’s behaviour.24. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Some examples of bad behaviour in school.B. Common discipline and rules in UK schools.C. How UK schools discipline and punish students.D. What UK parents think of school punishment.25. What do we know about suspension in UK schools?A. It is the most serious punishment for students.B. A pupil is not permitted to come back to school.C.

Many schools cancelled detention to punish students.C. She didn’t step out of line after that.D. Teachers signed a letter to respect her civil rights.27. Why do many UK schools sign a contract with parents?A. To make it easy for students to learn.B. To help parents know about school rules.C. To share resp onsibility for their child’s actions.D. To avoid their own responsibility for education.CAmong astronomers, women of color face more harassment(侵扰) than any other group, according to a new study published on Monday.The online survey of 474 astronomers and planetary scientists found that 28% of the women of color who responded reported feeling unsafe in their workplace due to their race,and that about 40% reported feeling unsafe because of their gender(性别). It also showed that 18% of women of color — as well as 12% of white women —said they’d skipped at least one class, meeting, fieldwork opportunity, or professional event because they were worried about their safety.“This isn’t something anyone can point to and say,” Kathryn Clancy, lead author of the paper, told BuzzFeed News. “These are all current issues that women of color are facing right now. They’re feeling unsafe today. They’re skipping professional events today.”“The study really reinforces(使更强烈) a lot of what the literature already tells us — that women of color are more likely to experience multiple forms of harassment and feel more strongly the impact of a very unfriendly or aggressive work environment in science,” Zuleyka Zevallos, a sociologist at Swinburne University of Technology in Australia, told BuzzFeed News.The study also outlined several approaches to addressing the problem, including creating a set of standards of behavior, diversity and cultural awareness training, and hiring many more women of color.Clancy also stressed that while professional societies could do a lot to foster culture change and make demands on their memberships, universities need to have swifter consequences for discrimination, and make it easier for victims to discuss these issues both formally and informall y. “It’s upsetting to me in a lot of ways that so many women of color haven’t been listened to in the last several decades,” Clancy said. “We think the science is going to be different than other workplaces —we just have to stop living in that fantasy.”28.What makes some women of color miss the fieldwork opportunity?A. Their resistance to culture change.B. The unfriendly work environment.C. Their lack of professional skills.D. Their concern about safety.29.What can be done to reduce harassment women of color face?A. Offering them more job opportunities.B. Introducing relative laws to protect their rights.C. Developing their cultural awareness in the workplace.D. Making people realize the importance of cultural diversity.30.What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?A. People need to treat things with reason.B. Women of color have no advantage in science.C. Universities should treat women of color equally.D. Gender discrimination is very common in society.31.What is the passage mainly about?A. How societies continue to fail women of color.B. Many women of color feel unsafe working in science.C. Diverse data shows people need to focus on women of color.D. Why women of color in science are few and far between. DMonkeys seem to have a way with numbers.A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.After running hundreds of tests, the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values more than half the time, indicating that they were performing a calculation, not just memorizing the value of each combination.When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估) a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分) of the smaller number to it.“This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains,”Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”32. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?A. They fed them.B. They named them.C. They trained them.D. They measured them.33. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?A. By drawing a circle.B. By touching a screen.C. By watching videos.D. By mixing two drinks.34. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?A. They could perform basic addition.B. They could understand simple words.C. They could memorize numbers easily.D. They could hold their attention for long.35. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Entertainment.B. Health.C. Education.D. Science.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Relatives from all over the country would come in to visit. The adults would crowd together in the livingroom to talk and catch up on each other’s li ves. And the kids would be sent out into the front yard to play when dinner was slowly cooked for all of us.Those were the days before video games, smart phones, and motorized toys, so we often ended up playing anold game. I remember one of those moments especially. As I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, Igot caught first and couldn’t catch anyone else. My brothers and cousins were all too fast for me, and I grew more and more frustrated. I finally fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears forming in my eyes. Then I saw oneof my female cousins Susan standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easilycaught up and seized her. Then she turned to me, smiled, andsaid, I’m it! You’d better run! I ran off laughing with glee while she turned and started to chase others.Now I see how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and returned me to joy. It didnthat we hardly ever saw each other. I know we are family and she loves me.In her wonderful book Box of Butterflies, Roma Downey writes, “We are all one, we all belong to each other,Perhaps it is time that we all started to treat each other that way. Perhaps itand we are one big, beautiful family.”is time that we shared our love, our kindness, our laughter, and our joy with everyone without fear.

Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you. Doesn’t it fehould have kept your mouth shut, becauseout loud? Don’t you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you sthat good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not ben you tell someone your goal and he acknowledges(认可) it, satisfied until you’d actually done the work. But whepsychologists have found it’s called a “social reality”. The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that it’sthe actual hard work necessary.done. And then, because you’ve felt that satisfaction, you’re less motivated to doThis goes against the traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals, right?In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he didsome new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people across four separate tests—everyone wrote downtheir personal goal. Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺) to this goal to the room, and half didn Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal, but they were told that they could stop at any time. Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal. But those who hadannounced it quit after only 33 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said that they felt much closer to achieving their goal.28. What do the words “social reality” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Completion of the goal.B. Necessary hard work.C. People’s acknowledgement. D. A sense of satisfaction.29. What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A. Writing down the goal is very helpful.B. Achieving personal goal needs more time.C. Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D.

By making comparison tests.31. What will probably happen if you tell your friends your goal?A. You will be more confident.B. You will not gain satisfaction.C. You are less likely to realize it.D. You’ll be much more motivated.DCompared with solar and wind energy, which are booming, tidal(潮汐的) power is a loser in the clean-energy competition. But if you did want to build a tidal power station, there are few better sites than the mouth of theRiver Severn, in Britain. Its tidal range, the difference in depth between high and low tides, of around 15 metres isamong the largest in the world.Engineers and governments have been toying with the idea since at least 1925. But none of the suggestedprojects has materialised. Price is one objection. A study thought that tidal energy might cost between £216 and £368($306-521) per MWh of electricity by 2025, compared with £58-75 for seagoing wind turbines(轮机) and£55-76 for solar panels. Environmentalists also worry that any plant would change the tides, making life harder for wildlife.An engineer called Rod Rainey thinks he has a way around both problems. He plans to replace the conventional turbines of previous plans with a much older technology. Specifically, he plans to span(横跨) theriver mouth with a line of water wheels. This is a design that dates back to the early days of the Industrial Revolution. Examples can be found fixed to the sides of old watermills(水磨).But there would be nothing old-fashioned about Mr Rainey’s wheels. Thirty metres high and sixty wide, they would be made from ordinary steel. Two hundred and fiftyof them, along with the supporting structures, would be floated into place and secured to the seabed, creating a line 15km long. Together, they could supply power at anaverage rate of 4GW. That is about as much as two biggish nuclear power stations would manage. Substitutingone of the wheels with a set of locks would provide a shipping channel about twice the width of Panama Canal, permitting upstream ports such as Avonmouth and Cardiff to continue operating.32. What is special about the mouth of the River Seven?A. The tidal range there is about 15 meters.B. It has the largest tidal range in the world.C. The tidal power station has been built there.D. Its power plant makes life harder for wildlife.s initial attitude towards tidal power?33. What was people’A. Opposed.B. Supportive.C. Controversial.D. Doubtful.34. What are the locks used for?A. Support.B. Transportation.C. Securing wheels.D. Producing electricity.35. What’s the best tittle for the text?A. Rainey invented turbines.B. Rainey’s tidal power station.C. Tidal power in the River Seven.D. An old idea might be made practical.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020高考一轮复习教材串讲必修5 Unit 3 Life in the future练习Ⅰ.阅读理解Seated in a convertible(敞篷车) with the top down at 60 miles an hour,Mary looked at the flies that sat on top of Mark’s hair.How could they stay there?She wondered.Mary had not seen Mark in years,until the other day when he came into the cafe where she worked.His appearance was different from when he was in high school.Now,he was a bit fat and thick glasses covered his eyes.However,that didn’t change Mary’s feelings for him at all.He had just bought a brand new red sports car and asked her if she would like to go for a ride and then have dinner with him.Her heart beat with excitement as he opened the door for her.She noticed something very strange as Mark got into the car and started to drive away.On the hair was a group of flies just sitting there.Mary stared in amazement.It seemed the faster they drove,the more determined the flies were to stick to his hair.Mary remained silent.She leaned forward and turned the radio on,trying to divert her attention away from the flies,but she couldn’t help thinking about them.She looked up at Mark,who was completely devoted to what was going on and continued to sing to the music while driving merrily along.Finally,Mark pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road beside a diner and looked in the mirror andsaid,“Mary,I would like to comb my hair before we get something to eat.Could you reach under the seat and give me my hair cream?”Mary reached under the seat and pulled out a camping backpack,which contained a round jar and started to laugh wildly as she pointed to the label(商标).“That’s not hair cream on your hair,Mark!It says it’s Fly Trap Glue!”1.What can we learn from the text?A.Mark had bought a new sports car for Mary.B.Mark used to be a thin,handsome boy.C.Mark and Mary had been in love for years.D.Mary felt strange when she saw the red car.2.Why did Mary burst into laughter?A.Because Mary played a trick on Mark.B.Because their ride wasn’t well prepared.C.Because Mark had prepared a jar of hair cream for her.D.Because Mark had mistaken Fly Trap Glue for hair cream.3.What can be the best title for this passage?A.Stuck on youB.Unchanged loveC.A hair trickD.A wonderful rideⅡ.七选五Color is fundamental in home design—something you’ll always have in every room.A grasp of how to manage color in your spaces is one of the first steps to creating rooms you’ll love to live in.Do you want a room that’s full of life?Professional?Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day?1,color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel.Over the years,there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point. 2,they can get a little complex.But good news is that there’re really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home:the small ones,the medium ones,and the large ones.3.They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows,mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms.Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa,small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas,dinner tables or bookshelves.4.They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones,and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls,ceilings,and floors.Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint,the time,effort and relative expense put into it are significant.5.A.While all of them are usefulB.Whatever you’re looking forC.If you’re experimenting with a colorD.Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar withE.It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color piecesF.So it pays to be sure,because you want to get it right the first timeG.Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major waysⅢ.书面表达(2019`天津)假设你是晨光中学的李津,英国友好校将派教师来你校参加为期一周的暑期交流活动。

A21. What do we know about Ved Mehta?A. He was born blind.B. He suffered from cancer.C. He was a hero worldwide.D. He left India himself at 15.22. Which book does a big sports fan like most?A. Face to Face.B. Courage Beyond Compare.C. No Looking Back.D. This Star Won’t Go Out.23. What made Shivani move on with life after two car accidents?A. Her strong will.B. Her happy marriage.C. Her family support.D. Her dream of writing.BSometimes sources of comfort can come from the most unexpected places. At least that’s been the case for a grieving(悲痛的) mom and a dad in Tennessee whose 12-year-old daughter died on January 5. Just days after Taylor Smith’s death, her parents found a sealed envelope containing a letter Taylor had written to her 22-year-old self---and its sunny, wise-beyond-her years tone appears to be a comfort to her parents.“To be opened by Taylor Smith on April 13, 2023 only unless said otherwise.” Taylor had printed on the envelope of the letter. “Sorry, baby, we opened it,” her father, Tim, said before reading it aloud with a quavering voice. “Dear Taylor, how’s life? Life might be pretty simple in the past 10 years. I know I’m late for you, but as I’m writing this early, so: congratulations on graduating from high school! If you didn’t, go back and keep trying. Get that degree! Do you have your own place yet? If we are in college, what are we majoring(主修) in? Right now I wanna be a lawyer.”The last heartbreaking line reads, “Well, I think that’s all, but remember it’s been 10 years since I wrote this. Things have happened, good and bad. That’s just how life works, and you have to go with it.”Her father talks about his feelings of grief. “At the beginning I felt shocked and depressed, hoping that it’s not real, and hoping that every time I take a nap or go to sleep, I find out it wasn’t real,” he says. “She liked doing quirky things and she liked doing meaningful things. She always created stuff. The fact that she wrote this letter wasn’t surprise, but what she wrote was.”Tim Smith posted a message on his daughter’s Facebook page: “I just wanted to write this so that all of her friends would know that Taylor loved you all! Thanks for loving our daughter.”24. Taylor Smith’s parents got great comfort when they.A. learned about their daughter’s college life from the letterB. knew that their daughter could live to 22 years oldC. found that their daughter wanted to be a lawyerD. found a letter that Taylor Smith had written to herself25. In which year did Taylor Smith write this letter to herself?A. In 2013.B. In 2023.C. In 2011.D. In 2001.26. The word “quavering” in the second paragraph can be replaced by.A. confusingB. amusingC. tremblingD. moving27. Why did Taylor’s father say that what Taylor wrote was a surprise?A. Because the letter itself surprised him.B. Because Taylor said what would happen to her future life in advance.C. Because Taylor imagined her future life.D. Because what Taylor wrote in the letter was beyond her age.CAbout ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier, only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman.There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades(阴影) of green. Sometimes a person can’t tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man sees everything in shades of green--a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones(圆锥细胞)”. These help us see in a bright day and tell the differences between colors. There are also millions of “rods(棒条体)”, but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape, but not color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes like blue but do not like yellow.A red light will not attract insects but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible(看不见的) colors around us.28. The passage is mainly about .A. color and its surprising effects on driversB. women being luckier than man because fewer of them are color blindC. color blindness and how our eyes tell different colors and shapesD. danger caused by color blindness29. According to the passage, with the help of “cones”, we can.A. see in a weak lightB. tell different colorsC. tell different shapesD. tell orange from yellow30. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A. There are fewer color blind women.B. Women are more careful.C. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.31. Which of the following statements about color blind people is true?A. None of them can see deep red but all can tell blue from green.B. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.C. None of them can tell blue from green but all can see deep red.D. All of them are lucky enough to see everything in shades of green.DIn a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits of this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable productindustries.32. The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that _____________.A. it consumes natural resourcesB. it makes the world warmerC. it brings severe damage to forestsD. it makes growth hard to continue33. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. China lacks wind and solar energy.B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.34. We can learn from the last paragraph that businesses have many chances to _____________.A. make full use of natural resourcesB. explore new natural resourcesC. develop sustainable productsD. deal with the major challenge35. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To advocate sustainable development.B. To compare two business models.C. To predict a change of the global market.D. To introduce a new business model.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThe blooming of social media and interactive smartphone-based apps has proved that e-marketing is an unchangeable trend. In the case of China, the latest battlefield is beauty camera apps, which have become an overnight hit in the West.1. MeituPicDeveloped by the Xiamen-based Meitu Inc, MeituPic is the company’s flagship beauty camera app and was the first to become a big hit among Western users. The app has drawn some 456 million users, who use it to post more than 6 billion photos every month.In addition to MeituPic, Meitu Inc has developed a series of beauty camera apps such as Beauty Plus, Poster Labs and Meipai, each specializing in facial feature improvement, video editing and many other features.2. PituTian Tian Pi Tu, is a beauty app developed by China ’s Internet giant Tencent. Similar to other photo-editing apps, Pitu offers a number of beautifying filters, blemish 〔瑕疵〕 removing tools and virtualmakeup choices for users to choose from.Launched in 2021, Pitu has accumulated 106 million monthly active users (MAUs). While the number is not as impressive as that of Meitu’ s apps, some argue that the user base of Tencent’ s gaming products and chat applications, such as QQ and WeChat, gives Pitu great potential for further growth. According to Chinese app watchers, Pitu’ s target audience is younger and more individualized than that of MeituPic. 80 percent of Pitu’ s users are younger than 25, giving t he app more room to try out more new features.3. FaceUIn contrast with most other beauty apps, FaceU, focuses more on the social feature, encouraging users to video chat with friends and even strangers while playing with its fun stickers (贴纸) — and the strategy is undoubtedly working. Launched in 2021, the app, which mainly targets female users between 15 and 35, has twice made it onto the Apple store’ s Chart for top apps.21. Meitu Inc has developed a series of beauty camera apps except ______. A. MeipaiB. MeituPicC. Tian Tian Pi TuD. Beauty Plus22. What gives Tian Tian Pi Tu more room to grow potentially? A. The amount of Meitu Apps’s potential users. B. Users of Tencent’s gaming products and chat apps. C. The various kinds of photo-editing functions. D. The room to try out more new features.23. According to the passage, what do the three Apps have in common? A. They mainly target young users. B. They all launched in 2021. C. They specialize in photo editing. D. They are popular and hot. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. D 【解析】21. 细节理解题。

That can be deadly. My parents rushed me to the hospital. That's when my whole life changed.The doctors said I had Type 1 Diabetes (糖尿病). That means my body can't make insulin (胰岛素). There's no cure.My parents had to give me insulin shots every day and I had to get over my fear of needles quickly. Sometimes I had 10 band-aids on my fingers at once.Now that I'm older, I check my own blood sugar and give myself shots. About four years ago, my mom started traveling to rural Guatemala. She goes twice a year to help people in need.I have been a Girl Scout since kindergarten. For a Girl Scout project, I put togethera team to go to Guatemala to test people there for diabetes. We went for four days last July. We tested 378 children and 100 adults. We found three adults with a different kind of diabetes, called type 2. We also found one little girl with dangerously low blood sugar. She cried when we told her. She had been feeling dizzy and didn't know why. It was like replaying what happened to me when I was little. I talked through a translator, but everyone understood hugs. I gave more hugs than I've ever given.Having type 1 diabetes is hard. But I have accepted it readily. It has helped me meet amazing people. It has made me responsible and independent. It has also shown me the power of taking action. I'm going back to Guatemala this summer to test more kids. I want to help as many kids as I can. But my greatest wish is for a cure. Type 1 diabetes changes your life. If no other child ever has to have it, that would be amazing.24. Why did the author's parents have her blood sugar tested?A. They found that she was pale.B. They noticed that she was thirsty.C.

This is the future of air travel according to Japanese company First Airlines, which has used the power of virtual reality to create dream vacations.Passengers avoid the costly airport transfer, the baggage fees or busy airport terminal(航站楼) —and instead enjoy the privileges of business or first-class travel and an expensive tour of Paris — all while remaining motionless in Tokyo. As well as Paris, First Airlines also offers the virtual destinations of New York, Rome and Hawaii.After boarding, guests can settle down for the two-hour flight on their advanced Airbus seat —surrounded by decoration that is modeled on the inside of an aircraft, for maximum realism. There is flight service and VR, foods, music for every destination. Passengers will be served a delicious meal by air stewards, alongside drinks and other desserts. The menu depends on the destination of choice —Manhattan clam chowder and cheesecake for New York and salmon tartar and onion soup for Paris. After landing at the destination, guests can enjoy a 360-degree tour of the destination — all thanks to projection(投影) mapping and video.It makes for a supposedly stress-free vacation, perfect for those whose ability to travel abroad is limited by cost or health.

Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment, and they are tired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread nothing but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt”brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.Perhaps that explains why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much popularity. That book, The Skeptic Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world”as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets of some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborg’s views are similar to those of some Industry-funded organizations, which start huge activities through the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborg’s book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. One national newspaper in Canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “After Lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”Such one-sided views should have immediately been challenged. But only a different review appeared in Nature, a respected science magazine with specific readership. The review remarked that Mr. Lomborg’s “preference for unexamined materials is incredible(不可信的)”.A critical(批判的) eye is valuable, and the media should present information in such a way that could allow people to make informed decisions. Unfortunately, that is often inaccessible as blocked by the desire to be shocking or to defend some special interests. People might become half-blinded before a world partially exhibited by the media. That’s a shame, because matters concerning the health of the planet are far too important to be treated lightly.32. According to the passage, which of the following may be regarded as “skeptics”?A. People who agree on the popularity of “eco-guilt”.B. People who disbelieve the serious situation of our planet.C. People who dislike the harmful effect of human activities.D. People who spread comforting news to protect our environment.33. Which of the following can be a reason for the popularity of Lomborg’s book?A. Some big businesses intend to protect their own interests.B. The book challenges views about the fine state of the world.C. The author convinces people to speak comforting worldviews.D. Industry–funded media present confusing information.34. The author mentioned the review in Nature in order to____.A. voice a different opinionB. find fault with Lomborg’s bookC. challenge the authority of the mediaD. point out the value of scientific views35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A. To encourage the skeptics to have a critical eye.B. To warn the public of the danger of half-blindness with reviews.C. To blame the media’s lack of responsibility in presenting information.D. To show the importance of presenting overall information by the media.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
