Researchers have developed a lithium­air battery that could make that dream a reality. The new battery design could also one day power airplanes and trucks. The main new component in this lithium­air battery is a solid electrolyte (电解质) instead of the usual liquid variety.Batteries with solid electrolytes are not subject to safety problems with the liqu id electrolytes used in lithium­ion and other battery types, which can overheat and catch fire. More importantly, the solid electrolyte can potentially boost the energy four times, which translates into longer driving range.For over a decade, scientists have been working overtime to develop a lithium (锂) battery that makes use of the oxygen in air. The lithium­air battery has the highest energy of any battery technology being considered for the nextgeneration of batteries beyond lithium­ion.The new solid electrolyte is composed of a material made from relatively inexpensive elements, compared with the past designs. Besides, the chemical reaction in lithium­ion only involves one or two electrons stored per oxygen molecule (分子), while that for t he lithium­air battery involves four electrons. More electrons stored means higher energy.The new design is the first lithium­air battery that has achieved a four­electron reaction at room temperature. It also operates with oxygen supplied by air from the surrounding environment. The capability to run with air avoids the need for oxygen tanks to operate, a problem with earlier designs.“With further development, we expect our new design for the lithium­air battery to reach a record of 1，200 w att­hours per kilogram，” said Curtiss, a researcher. “That is nearly four times better than lithium­ion batteries.”1．What contributes most to the lithium­air battery?A．Lithium­ion. B．Oxygen molecules.C．Solid electrolytes. D．Liquid components.2．What's the problem with lithium­ion batteries?A．They burn easily if overheated.B．They are unsafe in production.C．They damage the environment.D．They require longer charging time.3．How does the author organize Paragraph 4?A．By giving examples.B．By making comparisons.C．By presenting statistics.D．By analyzing cause and effect.4．What is the best title of the text?A．How Lithium­air Batteries WorkB．What Will Be Used to Power AirplanesC．Electric Cars Are Becoming More PopularD．New Batteries Offer Longer Driving RangeBGrizzly bears, which may grow to about 2.5 m long and weigh over 400 kg, occupy a conflicted corner of the American psyche—we revere (敬畏) them even as they give us frightening dreams. Ask the tourists from around the world that flood into Yellowstone National Park what they most hope to see, and their answer is often the same: a grizzly bear.“Grizzly bears are re­occupying large areas of their former range，” says bear biologist Chris Servheen. As grizzly bears expand their range into places where they haven't been seen in a century or more, they're increasingly being sighted by humans.The western half of the U．S. was full of grizzlies when Europeans came, with a rough number of 50，000 or more living alongside Native Americans. By the early 1970s, after centuries of cruel and continuous hunting by settlers, 600 to 800 grizzlies remained on a mere 2 percent of their former range in the Northern Rockies. In 1975, grizzlies were listed under the Endangered Species Act.Today, there are about 2，000 or more grizzly bears in the U．S. Their recovery has been so successful that the U．S. Fish and Wildlife Service has twice attempted to de­list grizzlies, which would loosen legal protections and allo w them to be hunted. Both efforts were overturned due to lawsuits from conservation groups. For now, grizzlies remain listed.Obviously, if precautions (预防) aren't taken, grizzlies can become troublesome, sometimes killing farm animals or walking through yards in search of food. If people remove food and attractants from their yards and campsites, grizzlies will typically pass by without trouble. Putting electric fencing around chicken houses and other farm animal quarters is also highly effective at gettin g grizzlies away. “Our hope is to have a clean, attractant­free place where bears can pass through without learning bad habits，” says James Jonkel, longtime biologist who manages bears in and around Missoula.5．How do Americans look at grizzlies?A．They cause mixed feelings in people.B．They should be kept in national parks.C．They are of high scientific value.D．They are a symbol of American culture.6．What has helped the increase of the grizzly population?A．The European settlers' behavior.B．The expansion of bears' range.C．The protection by law since 1975.D．The support of Native Americans.7．What has stopped the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service from de­listing grizzlies?A．The opposition of conservation groups.B．The successful comeback of grizzlies.C．The voice of the biologists.D．The local farmers' advocates.8．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Food should be provided for grizzlies.B．People can live in harmony with grizzlies.C．A special path should be built for grizzlies.D．Technology can be introduced to protect grizzlies.答题策略语法填空——冠词练习52 语法填空＋阅读理解Ⅰ.语法填空【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

高考英语一轮总复习必修第一册提能训练：Unit 4 Natural DisastersⅠ.阅读理解A(2024·浙江1月高考题) On September 7, 1991, the costliest hailstorm (雹暴) in Canadian history hit Calgary's southern suburbs. As a result, since 1996 a group of insurance companies have spent about $2 million per year on the Alberta Hail Suppression Project. Airplanes seed threatening storm cells with a chemical to make small ice crystals fall as rain before they can grow into dangerous hailstones. But farmers in east-central Alberta—downwind of the hail project flights—worry that precious moisture (水分) is being stolen from their thirsty land by the cloud seeding.Norman Stienwand, who farms in that area, has been addressing public meetings on this issue for years. “Basically, the provincial government is letti ng the insurance companies protect the Calgary-Edmonton urban area from hail，” Mr. Stienwand says, “but they're increasing drought risk as far east as Saskatchewan.”The Alberta hail project is managed by Terry Krauss, a cloud physicist who works for Weath er Modification Inc. of Fargo, North Dakota. “We affect only a very small percentage of the total moisture in the air, so we cannot be causing drought，” Dr. Krauss says. “In fact, we may be helping increase the moisture downwind by creating wetter ground.”One doubter about the safety of cloud seeding is Chuck Doswell, a research scientist who just retired from the University of Oklahoma. “In 1999, I personally saw significant tornadoes (龙卷风) form from a seeded storm cell in Kansas，” Dr. Doswell says. “Doe s cloud seeding create killer storms or reduce moisture downwind? No one really knows, of course, but the seeding goes on.”Given the degree of doubt, Mr. Stienwand suggests, “it would be wise to stop cloud seeding.” In practice, doubt has had the opposite effect. Due to the lack of scientific proof concerning their impacts, no one has succeeded in winning a lawsuit against cloud-seeding companies. Hence, private climate engineering can proceed in relative legal safety.语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。

All my troubles and nerves went away as I danced my whole heart out.As I walked up to the judge to receive my shining, gold trophy (奖杯), I realized that dance is not about becoming the best. It was about loving dance for dance itself, a getaway from all my problems in the world. Shanda showed me that you could let everything go and just dance what you feel at that moment.

练习33 阅读理解＋读后续写Ⅰ.阅读理解ADoes your life ever feel as if you're pushing a heavy car—one on which you've spent much money and that has now broken down? You've done everything right: you haven't invested heavily in a new business or quit your job to pursue your childhood dream of becoming a professional athlete. You have been a sensible adult living your sensible life. So why does it feel like such hard work?This has been me for the past few months. Earlier this year, I took a long hard look at my sources of income and decided to focus on the ones that provided the most money. I'm lucky enough to have had a good financial year. But despite doing the right thing, it has used up my energy and I've worked out why.Years ago, I realized that I disliked hard work. Don't get me wrong. I don't mind working hard, but hard work isn't for me. What's the difference? For a start, hard work feels as if it never really gets going. You can push hard work and it might move a little but there's no celebratory moment when it gets done. Most importantly, hard work lacks joy. Working hard on a project you feel excited and moved by can be tiring and difficult, but it's ultimately joyful and that is what I've been missing.So I asked myself what would feel scary but joyful and this is the answer. I'm going to write a romance. Of course, being a middle­aged journalist who suddenly decides to write a book is nothing novel. However, for me, it hits the sweet spot between being joyful enough to make me want to do it and scary enough to make me feel it's worthwhile.As with all good middle­aged changes, this one hasn't really been thought through.I know little about writing fiction and even less about what makes a good book. I have the thinnest ideas for a plot but, for the first time in a while, I'm excited, I will be another Jane Austen with my fantasies which give me life. So now, I have to go and sharpen my pencil.1．What can best describe the author's current feeling about life?A．A new business makes her feel fresh.B．She has got everything under her control.C．She is conflicted about living a sensible life.D．A childhood dream inspires her to make more efforts.2．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．Living a rather sensible life.B．Identifying income sources.C．Discovering new life goals.D．Sorting out the author's jobs.3．What's the author's understanding of hard work and working hard?A．Journalism is a career worth working hard.B．Hard work is something either sweet or tiring.C.Writing a romance is difficult but rewarding.D．Working hard rarely brings about satisfaction.4．What is probably the best title for the text?A．Dare to attemptB．Middle­aged job crisisC．The celebratory momentD．A future Jane AustenBA few days before New Year 1944, Patricia Krueger received a telegram from the U．S. Army. She hoped it would contain a belated birthday greeting from her husband, an army flight engineer, Charles Krueger, whom she had not heard from for 2 weeks. Instead, the message said he wasn't coming home: His B­29 had been lost and he was later declared MIA (missing in action). Their son, John Krueger from Middleton, Wisconsin, is still in tears when he recounts this story.Decades later, the military continues to work to bring back the remains of soldiers like Charles Krueger. The job of finding them falls to DPAA (Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency), created in 2015 after critics charged that the previous MIA search process was slow, and behind on innovations in science and technology. Between 1973 and 2014, the remains of only 1，849 missing service members were returned to their families; in 2021, the agency accounted for the remains of 141 MIAs, according to DPAA figures.To accelerate the work, Congress gave DPAA the authority to develop public­priv ate partnerships with scientists and groups outside the government. “Teaming up with academic scientists introduces new ways of thinking，” says military historian Michael Dolski. “Working with partners allows us to tap into their technologies and capabilit ies in ways that we just can't maintain.”For scientists, the work is more than technically satisfying. “It's the most rewarding aspect of my career，” says Mires, a scientist working with the agency. “In other archaeology sites I've worked on, the history is remote，” he says. “Here, you're doing something not for a thing, but for a person, and all the people they touched.”5．What was the telegram about in Paragraph 1?A．A New Year dinner.B．Charles Krueger's disappearance.C．A birthday greeting.D．John Krueger's memory.6．Why did people criticize the previous MIA search process?A．Because DPAA wants to continue the search.B．Because it took long and lacked creativeness.C．Because the work was stopped by the military.D.Because 141 MIAs' remains were found in 2021.7．What is Michael Dolski's attitude to the cooperation with scientists and groups?A．Patient. B．Critical.C．Doubtful. D．Approving.8．What is a suitable title for the text?A．A long search for MIAsB．Achievements of DPAAC．Assistance from scienceD．Consequences of warsⅡ.读后续写[2023·南京市·盐城市高三模拟]As I stood in line waiting to cash out at a “pack your own” kind of store, where customers pack their items by themselves, I stared at the customer in front of me reading the magazines. She was young, but she already had a tired look, with her head bent forwards—as if life had beaten her down too many times.Her face looked pale from extreme tiredness. Her winter coat was thin and unbuttoned. The well­worn scarf around her throat probably did little to protect it from the cold weather. Her hands turning a few pages, were rough and red. When I looked down at her boots, I could see a small piece of a clear plastic bag partially visible through a hole in her left boot.The items in her cart (手推车) included the cheapest cuts of meat and some things like rice and potatoes. There were also lots of noodles. Day­old bread, inexpensive soap, and tissues on sale—well, almost.

Robotics technology has just landed in the workplace and there is a lot of work to do. Below we'll discuss some of the best and most advanced robots ever made by humans.AsimoThe primary focus of the robot is to help people. Asimo travels all around the world, making people aware how robots can make life easier and help humans. It can dance, run and even kick a soccer ball. The robot can communicate with people in three different languages including Japanese, Chinese and English.Created by：Honda (Japan)SophiaIt is a realistic example of a perfect robot because it has about 50 different facial expressions just like humans. Sophia is primarily designed for education, research and entertainment. It travels throughout the world explaining to people the importance of robots in human life.Created by：Hanson Robotics (Hong Kong, China)AtlasIts body shape is so dynamic that it can use its all body skills to move quickly and balance itself on diverse terrains (地形). The robot is capable of performing many different tasks but some favourite tasks are running, jumping and turning over. Its advanced AI systems make it capable of sensing barriers and negotiating diverse terrains.Created by：Boston Dynamics (United States)SpotSpot is an animal robot, or say a dog robot, because it looks very similar to a dog. Spot can search around your office, home, playground etc. as a normal dog usually does. Spot has some outstanding functions. For example, it can map your environment, sense barriers, and lift packages.Created by：Boston Dynamics (United States)1．Which of the following characterizes Asimo?A．Its high speed.B．Its facial expressions.C．Its language ability.D．Its communication skills.2．Which robot is created by China?A．Asimo. B．Sophia.C．Atlas. D．Spot.3．What do Atlas and Spot have in common?A．They can change their body shapes.B．They can carry small packages.C．They can help do some housework.D．They can detect barriers around.B(风景) can be quite a challenge, mainly because the corn state lacks geographical variation.Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar, either farm fields or highways, sometimes I find distinctive character in the hills or lakes. To make some of my landscape shots, I have traveled up to four hours away to shoot within a 10­minute time frame. I tend to travel with a few of my friends to state parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way.Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography.I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the moment I am attempting to photograph. I have missed plenty of beautiful sunsets/sunrises due to being on the spot only five minutes before the best moment.One time my friends and I drove three hours to Devil's Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz (石英) rock around the lake. After we found a crazy­looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. Wemanaged to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset. However, we did not mark the route (路途) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we found the place, it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.4．How does the author deal with the challenge as a landscape photographer in the Midwest?A．By teaming up with other photographers.B．By shooting in the countryside or state parks.C．By studying the geographical conditions.D．By creating settings in the corn fields.5．What is the key to successful landscape photography according to the author?A．Proper time management.B．Good shooting techniques.C．Adventurous spirit.D．Distinctive styles.6．What can we infer from the author's trip with friends to Devil's Lake?A．They went crazy with the purple quartz rock.B．They felt stressed while waiting for the sunset.C．They reached the shooting spot later than expected.D．They had problems with their equipment.7．How does the author find his photos taken at Devil's Lake?A．Amusing.

提升训练1.【2020年全国卷Ⅲ】With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to live together.The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his mother-in-law: she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol —one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine, but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing a house,” says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in: “We spoke more with Nick because I think it’s a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law.”And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”It’s hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001 to 419,000 in 2013.Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991.The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living ismore firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in with their husband’s family when they get married.28. Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol?A.

专题22 阅读理解（推理判断题）1.（2023·安徽安庆·安庆一中校考模拟预测）Sleep, considered a luxury by many, is essential for a person's wellbeing. Researchers have found that insufficient sleep and tiredness increase a person's risk of developing severe medical conditions, such as obesity (being very overweight), high blood sugar levels, and heart disease. Now, a new study has found that getting sufficient sleep is also the key to improving academic performance.Jeffrey Gross, the university science professor who led the research, was not trying to find the relationship between sleep and grades when he handed out smart watches to the 100 students in his chemistry class. Instead, the professor hoped the wrist-worm devices, which track a person's physical activity, would show a connection between exercise and academic achievement.While Gross's data showed no relationship between these two factors, the study found something surprising. As the researchers were analyzing their data, they noticed that there was a straight-line relationship between the average amount of sleep a student got and their results in the course's 11 quizzes, three midterm tests, and the final exam.Even more interesting, it was not sufficient for students to just head to bed early the night before a test. Instead, it's the sleep you get during the days when learning is happening that matters most.The time students went to bed each night was similarly important. Those who went to bed in early hours of the morning performed poorly, even if the total sleep time was the same as a higher-performing student. "When you go to bed matters," Gross says, "If you go to bed at 10, or 12, or 1 at night, and sleep for seven hours, your performance is the same. But if you go to bed after 2, your performance starts to go down even if you get the same seven hours. So, quantity isn't everything."Perhaps the most interesting was the huge impact that small differences in sleep patterns had on the students' grades. The overall course grades for students averaging six and a half hours of sleep each night were 25% lower than students who averaged just one hour more sleep. Similarly, students who varied their bedtime by even one hour each night had grades that dropped 45% below those with more regular bedtimes.Who knew getting A's just required some extra ZZZ's?1．Based on his original objectives, which best describes Professor Gross's research findings?A．Accidental.B．Complete.C．Convincing.D．Doubtful.2．Who were the people taking part in the study?A．Middle school chemistry students.B．V olunteers from different universities.C．Professor Gross's own students.D．University student athletes.3．How did Professor Gross's team measure academic performance?A．Making the students wear a special watch.B．Using students' university entrance test results.C．Giving the students regular after class quizzes.D．Using the students' normal test and quiz grades.4．Based on the study's findings, who is likely to perform best academically.A．A person who has a good night's sleep the night before an important test.B．A person whose normal bedtime varies between 9 p.m. and 12 p.m.C．A person who sleeps from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. each day.D．A person who sleeps for a total of 7 hours each night.【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．C【分析】这是一篇说明文。
