Thousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano(火山) broke out. The hot liquid rock piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea.As time went on, hot sun and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces. Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow first.

Thousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano(火山)broke out. The hot liquid rock piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea. As time went on, hot sun and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces. Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being. Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow first.

A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch, In sects couldn’ t stay until there were plants for them to eat. So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island.According to the passage, which of the following is true（） A. Spiders were the first life that could live on the island.B.

Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected we feel? Every advance in communication technology is a step back from the closeness of human interaction. With email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. As almost every imaginable contact between human beings becomes automatic by machine, the alienation question goes up. You can't even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Directory assistance is almost always fully automatic by machine. Pumping gas at the station? Why say good morning to the worker when you can use your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Placing money at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just put your credit card into the ATM? Pretty soon you won't have the hard task of making eye contact at the grocery store. Some grocery chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those annoying clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing. 66. The writer's attitude toward advances in communication technology may be described as ________. A. unconcerned B. critical C. positive D. uninterested 67. If his mom has a question, he will ________. A. find new ways to reach her B. locate her e-mail address C. try to get her a voice machine D. leave her the answer through voice mail 68. Judging from the context, the word "alienation" (Line 2, Paragraph 2) means ________. A. relationship B. closeness C. strangeness D. stress 69. With the rapid development of high technology, people don’t need to ________. A. see or talk to one another B. say good morning to workers C. make eye contact with clerks D. completely rely on machines 70. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer ________. A. is pleased with the modern pace of life B. feels more separated from others C. doesn’t want anyone to bother him D. sings high praises for communication technology

The major drivers of climate change are collective enterprises such as power grids（电力公）industry，large-scale agriculture and transportation systems.About half of all greenhouse gas emissions comes from electricity generation and industrial fossil-fuel use.Substantial（大量的）emissions reductions in these settings most likely will not come from personal actions；they will come from laws and policies such as carbon-pricing systems，revised building codes and supports for green investment.But one effective act is to consume less meat. Cutting meat consumption is a powerful and personal thing most Americans can do to tackle（解决）the climate crisis，and they can do it immediately.About4 0 percent of greenhouse gases come from agriculture，deforestation and other land-use changes.Meat-particularly beef--drives climate change in two ways：first，through cows' emission of methane（甲烷），a strong greenhouse gas，and second，by destroying forests as they are changed into grass land.Despite the economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic（流行病），atmospheric greenhouse gas levels continued to rise in2020，in large part because of an emissions increase in the Amazon as rain forests were changed into land for cattle to satisfy the global demand for beef.By eating less beef，we can start to decrease that demand. You do not have to become a vegan（素食主义者）to do this.According to one recent study，if every person in the U.S.cut their meat consumption by 25 percent，it would reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions by 1 percent.That might not sound like a lot，but it would help protect the rain forest，so the positive effects-including reduced water and fertilizer use，improved biodiversity and safeguarded rights of local peoples-would be amplified（放大）. Perhaps，social action is kind of infectious（有感染力的）一in a good way，If lots of us begin to eat less meat and if we talk about it constructively，we will likely influence others.Pretty soon the 1 percent reduction becomes 2 percent or more.Reduced demand for meat could motivate my local supermarket to carry better produce，making it easier for me and my neigh hours to prepare a few more satisfying meat-free meals.Ultimately changes in demand will influence industry.Forty years ago few mainstream supermarkets carried organic（有机的）products；now nearly all do.Consumer demand did that. Above all，cutting back on red meat also has the added benefit of being good for your health.（1）What may substantially reduce greenhouse gas emission？ ____ A.Encouraging personal efforts.B.Making favourable laws and policies.C.Reducing various power plants.D.Investing large transportation systems.（2）What caused greenhouse gas level still to rise in 2020？ ____ A.The effects of COVID-19 pandemic.B.The slow pace of economy.C.The destruction of forests for cattle.D.The quick development of agriculture.（3）"Organic products"was mentioned in paragraph4 to ____ .A.remind people to buy organic foodB.prove one's action can influence othersC.call on supermarkets to sell organic productsD.show demand has impact on production（4）Which can be a proper title for the text？ ____ A.Less Beef，Much Healthier.B.To Eat Less Meat for Climate.C.Small Personal Actions Have a Big Impact.D.Cattle Are Partly Responsible for Climate Crisis.

单选题请阅读Passage 1。完成第小题。 Passage 1 The mythology of a culture can provide some vital insights into the beliefs and values of that culture． By using fantastic and sometimes incredible stories to create an oral tradition by which to explain the wonders of the natural world and teach lessons to younger generations, a society exposes those ideas and concepts held most important． Just as important as the final lesson to be gathered from the stories, however, are the characters and the roles they play in conveying that message． Perhaps the epitome of mythology and its use as a tool to pass on cultural values can be found in Aesop´s Fables, told and retold during the era of the Greek Empire． Aesop, a slave who won the favor of the court through his imaginative and descriptive tales, almost exclusively used animals to fill the roles in his short stories． Humans, when at all present, almost always played the part of bumbling fools struggling to learn the lesson being presented． This choice of characterization allows us to see that the Greeks placed wisdom on a level slightly beyond humans, implying that deep wisdom and understanding is a universal quality sought by, rather than stealing from, human beings． Aesop´s fables illustrated the central themes of humility and self-reliance, reflecting the importance of those traits in early Greek society． The folly of humans was used to contrast against the ultimate goal of attaining a higher level of understanding and awareness of truths about nature and humanity． For example, one notable fable features a fox repeatedly trying to reach a bunch of grapes on a very high vine． After failing at several attempts, the fox gives up, making up its mind that the grapes were probably sour anyway． The fable´ s lesson, that we often play down that which we can´t achieve so as to make ourselves feel better, teaches the reader or listener in an entertaining way about one of the weaknesses of the human psyche． The mythology of other cultures and societies reveal the underlying traits of their respective cultures just as Aesop´ s fables did． The stories of Roman gods, Aztec ghosts and European elves all served to train ancient generations those lessons considered most important to their community, and today they offer a powerful looking glass by which to evaluate and consider the contextual environment in which those culture existed． The author appears to view fables as__________． A．the most interesting and valuable form of mythology B．entertaining yet serious subjects of study C．a remnant tool of past civilizations, but not often used in the modem age D．the primary method by which ancient values and ideas were transmitted between generations
