7、据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。2阅读理解 A recent study finds that the dirt on the ground is likely to worsen climate change. Researchers have shown that warmer temperatures are heating the soil, which is causing microbes (微生物) to become more active and release more of the soils carbon into the atmosp
8、here. These soil changes can potentially contribute to even higher temperatures. Scientists studied device readings, soil measurements, plant growth details and satellite observations from around the world. Their work is the most complete study on the subject. They found a sharp increase in carbon r
9、eleased into the atmosphere by bacteria and fungi (真菌) in soil from 1990 to 2014. Researchers explain that the carbon comes from the dead plants and leaves the microbes eat. As temperatures rise, the microbes eat more. And the more they eat, the more carbon can be made into carbon dioxide and releas
10、ed into the atmosphere. This uncontrolled cycle speeds up and intensifies climate change. Overall, soil releases about nine times more carbon than human activities. But that is part of a natural cycle: the amount of carbon released into the air is about equal to the carbon oceans and plants take in.
11、 However, carbon released from fossil fuel causes an imbalance. Burning coal, oil and natural gas puts more carbon into the atmosphere than nature can take in. The additional carbon heats the air and soil. And as the air and soil get hotter, the earth will release more carbon than it has been holdin
12、g. If something isnt done, we are really in trouble. Proper soil conservation can help keep more carbon in soil. Conservation methods include avoiding turning the soil, covering off-season crops and leaving crop deposits on the ground.(1)Which word can best describe the scientists research data?A.Ri
13、ch.B.Rare.C.Limited.D.Difficult.(2)What does the underlined word intensifies in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Causes.B.Demands.C.Strengthens.D.Shows.(3)What mainly causes the soils temperature to rise?A.Active bacteria.B.Human activities.C.The overuses of soil.D.The wastes of fossil fuels.(4)What can be a suit
14、able title for the passage?A.Warmer soil and more carbon.B.The soil and the environment.C.The microbes and the temperatures.D.Hotter air and warmer environment.【答案】 (1)A(4)A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了人类燃烧燃料造成的土壤变化可能导致地球更高的温度。 (1)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Scientists studied device readings, soil measurements, plant g
15、rowth details and satellite observations from around the world. Their work is the most complete study on the subject.”科学家们研究了来自世界各地的设备读数、土壤测量、植物生长细节和卫星观测数据。他们的工作是对这一课题最全面的研究。故选A。 (2)考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“This uncontrolled cycle speeds up and intensifies climate change.”可知,and 为并列连词,即intensifies应与之前的speeds
16、up 为同义词。speed up 意为“加速”,C项strengthen 意为“加强;增强”可为同义词。 (3)考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“However, carbon released from fossil fuel causes an imbalance. Burning coal, oil and natural gas puts more carbon into the atmosphere than nature can take in. The additional carbon heats the air and soil. And as the air and soil
17、get hotter, the earth will release more carbon than it has been holding”然而,化石燃料释放的碳造成了不平衡。燃烧煤炭、石油和天然气向大气中排放的碳超过了自然所能吸收的量。额外的碳使空气和土壤升温。随着空气和土壤变得越来越热,地球释放出的碳将超过它所承受的量。可知,人类的一系列燃烧燃料的行为是土壤温度上升的主要原因。根据第一段中的“soil changes can potentially contribute to even higher temperatures.”中间段落进行阐述分析原因和结果。末段提出了“Proper
18、soil conservation can help keep more carbon in soil.”并提供了建议。因此标题关键词需有 soil, carbon等核心词。A项Warmer soil and more carbon.符合分析。 【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和主旨大意三个题型的考查,是一篇环保类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,同时根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,概括和归纳,从而选出正确答案。3阅读理解 It started during a yoga class.

20、y, I found that her cholesterol (胆固醇) level was sky-high. She had been prescribed a cholesterol-lowering statin (他汀) medication, but she never picked up the prescription because of the scary things she had read about statins on the Internet. She was the victim of fake medical news. While misinformat

Sometimes patients benefit from an intervention (干预) simply because they believe they willthats the placebo effect (安慰剂效应). The nocebo effect is the opposite. Patients can experience harmful effects because they antici
23、pate them. This is very true of statins. In blinded trials, patients who get statins are no more likely to report feeling muscle aches than patients who get a placebo. Yet, in clinical practice, according to one study, almost a fifth of patients taking statins report side effects, leading many to di
