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 soi
6、ls carbon into the atmosphere. 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 s
7、harp increase in carbon released 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
8、carbon dioxide and released 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 o
9、ceans and plants take in. 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 carbo
10、n than it has been holding. 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 scie

12、els.(4)What can be a suitable 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(3)B(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 reading
13、s, soil measurements, plant growth 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。 (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
14、,即intensifies应与之前的speeds 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。故选C。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
15、 the air and soil 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。故选B。 (4)考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的“soil changes can potentially contribute to even higher temperatur
16、es.”中间段落进行阐述分析原因和结果。末段提出了“Proper 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 I became a magician by accident.

18、but young enough to still hold out hope that you might find a book of real, actual magic in the library. The book I found instead taught basic sleight-of-hand (戏法) technique, and I devoted the next months to practice. Initially, the magic wasnt any good. At first it wasnt even magic; it was just a t
19、rick a bad trick. I spent hours each day in the bathroom running through the secret moves in front of the mirror. I dropped the coin over and over, a thousand times in a day, and after two weeks of this my mom got a carpet sample from the store and placed it under the mirror to eradicate the sound o
20、f the coin falling again and again. I had heard my dad work through passages of new music on the piano, so I knew how to practice slowly, deliberately, going for precision rather than speed. And then I tried the illusion (错觉) in the mirror and an unbelievable scene took place. It did not look like a
21、 magic trick. It looked like a miracle. I knew that I had got what I wanted. One day I made the performance on the playground.

24、s awkward.s disappointing.(2)A(3)C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者变成魔术师是偶然的,并且具体讲述了自己九岁时学习如何让硬币消失的经历。根据第一段中的“Id read The Lord of the Rings and risked coming into the adult section of the library to search for a book of spells ”我读过魔戒,并且冒险进入图书馆的成人区寻找魔法书,可知,作者进入图书馆的成人区是为了寻找魔法书。原文中使用了不定式表达目的。根据第二段讲述作者一开始练习让硬币消失时的练习经
25、历,他每天要在镜子前练1000遍左右,那么硬币也就会掉在地上1000次左右。所以划线单词所在句子句意应为:两周后,妈妈从店里买了一块地毯,把它放在镜子下面,以掩盖硬币一次又一次落下的声音。 (3)考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“I had heard my dad work through passages of new music on the piano, so I knew how to practice slowly, deliberately, going for precision rather than speed. And then I tried the illusion (错
26、觉) in the mirror and an unbelievable scene took place. It did not look like a magic trick.
