Over their lifetimes, then, urban trees will likely absorb less CO2 from the air than forest trees. As we all know, the earth would be freezing or burning hot w
2、ithout CO2. However, CO2 is a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps energy from the sun as/heat. That makes temperatures near the ground rise. Human activities, especially the widespread burning-of fossil(化石)fuels, have been sending extra greenhouse gases into the air. This has led to a rise in average t
3、emperatures across the globe. Studies had shown forests readily absorb CO2, but there hadnt been much data on whether city trees grow, die and absorb CO2 at the same rate as forest trees do. So some researchers decided to find out. To figure out how quickly trees were growing, researchers tracked th
4、eir diameters (the width of their trunks) between 2005 and 2014. A trees diameter increases as it grows, just as a persons waist size increases as they gain weight. About half the weight of a tree is carbon, research has shown. Most of the rest is water. Over the nine years tracking, the researchers
5、 found city trees absorbed four times as much carbon from the air as forest trees. However, they were twice as likely to die. So over the lifetime of each type of tree, forest trees actually absorbed more CO2. City trees grew faster because they had less competition for light from their neighbors. I
6、n a forest,trees tend to grow close together,shading their neighbors. Street trees also benefit from higher levels of nitrogen (氮)in rainwater. Nitrogen helps plants grow. Waste gases from gas-burning cars also contain nitrogen, thus enriching city air with nitrogen. Later, rainwater may wash much o

A.It is one of the side effects of greenhouses.B.It greatly accelerates the process of global warming.C.I

11、 or burning hot without CO2.”可知,如果没有二氧化碳,地球将会极冷或极热。可以推断,二氧化碳可以防止地球变得不适合居住。故选D。 (2)考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“To figure on how quickly trees were growing, researchers tracked their diameters.”可知,研究人员监测树木的直径是为了了解树木的生长速度。故选A。 (3)考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“Street trees also benefit from higher levels of nitrogen (氮)in rainwat
12、er. Nitrogen helps plants grow. Waste gases from gas-burning cars also contain nitrogen, thus enriching city air with nitrogen. Later, rainwater may wash much of it to the ground.”可知,与生长在森林中的树木相比,城市里的树木长得更快是因为它们无需与邻近的树木争夺光照,也能得到更多的氮量,还更容易得到水。光、氮和水都可以促进树木的生长。由此可以推断,城市里的树木比森林中的树木更可能获得生长促进剂。故选A。 (4)考查推
13、理判断。首句就提到了一项新的研究结果:城市里的树木比森林中的树木长得更快,但死得更早;文章第三段说到“以前有研究表明森林会吸收二氧化碳,但是城市里的树木的生长、死亡和吸收二氧化碳的速度是否跟森林中的树木一样,这方面的数据不多。因此一些研究人员决定弄清楚”;文章第四段再次介绍了他们的研究发现:城市里的树木比森林中的树木长得更快,但死得更早;文章最后一段介绍了城市里的树木比森林中的树木生长得更快的几个原因。由此可以推断,文章接下来很可能就要介绍城市里的树木死得更早的原因。故选B。 【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇科研类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,并根据上下文进行逻辑
14、推理,从而选出正确答案。2阅读理解 Nhon Ly, a 55-year-old Vietnamese-born professional bodybuilder from California has been awarded the real-life Master Roshi for his unbelievable similarity to the popular Dragon Ball Z anime(日本动漫) character.

They are sold as companions that do more than talk to us. Time magazine hailed (称赞) the robots that could fundamentally reshape ho
28、w we interact with machines. But is reshaping how we interact with machines a good thing, especially for children? Some researchers in favor of the robots dont see a problem with this. People have relationships with many kinds of things. Some say robots are just another thing with which we can have
29、relationships. To support their argument, roboticists sometimes point to how children deal with toy dolls. Children animate (赋予生命) dolls and turn them into imaginary friends. Jibo, in a sense, will be one more imaginary friend, and arguably a more intelligent and fun one. Getting attached to dolls a

What is the point of this, exactly? What does it mean to feel the pain of neglecting something that feels no pain at being neglected, or to feel anger at being neglected by something that doesnt even know it is neglecting you?
