27、） Somethings happening at the lowest point on our planet,some 1,388 feet below sea level. The Dead Sea, a salt lake close to Israel, Jordan and the West Bank, is shrinking at an alarming rateabout 3.3 feet per year, according to the environmentalist group EcoPeace Middle East.“Its not just like one

28、country is punishing the Dead Sea; its more like the whole region,” said photographer Moritz Kstner, who visited the area in February to work on his series “The Dying Dead Sea”.The Dead Sea needs water from the other natural sources surrounding it, such as the Jordan River basin. But around the 1960

29、s, the courses of some water sources it relied upon were diverted. Israel, for instance, built a pipeline during that time so it could supply water throughout the country.Mineral extraction(提取) industries are another main reason why the water levels are declining, experts say. The Dead Seas minerals

30、 have been popular for their medical power and can often be found in cosmetics(化妆品) and other consumer products.And then, of course, theres the Middle Easts hot, dry climate, which makes it difficult for the lake to refill itself. Last year, Israel and Jordan signed a $900 million deal in an effort

31、to stabilize the Dead Seas water levels. It involves building a canal from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea which would be able to not only supply water to Israel and Jordan but also to pump much needed watersome 300 million cubic meters annuallyinto the Dead Sea.“This is the most important and significa

32、nt agreement since the peace treaty with Jordan (in 1994),” said Silvan Shalom, Israels energy and water resources minister at the time. Whether the canalestimated to take three years to completewill work out positively and as planned remains to be seen.For now, Kstner shows us that the Dead Sea rem

36、the measure taken to save it.24（8分） Blue Planet IIs latest episode focuses on how plastic is having a disastrous effect on the ocean and slowly poisoning our sea creatures. Researchers recently also found that sea creatures living in the deepest place on Earth, the Mariana Trench, have plastic in th

37、eir stomachs. Indeed, the oceans are drowning in plastic.Though it seems now that the world couldnt possibly function without plastics, consumer plastics are a remarkably recent invention. The first plastic bags were introduced in the 1950s; the same decade that plastic packaging began gaining in po

38、pularity in the United States. This growth has happened so fast that science is still catching up with the change. Plastics pollution research, for instance, is still a very early science.We put all these plastics into the environment and we still dont really know what the outcomes are going to be.

39、What we do know, though, is disturbing. Ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine animals every year. Nearly 700 species, including endangered ones, are known to have been affected by it. One in three leatherback turtles, which often mistake plastic bags for jellyfish, have been found wi

40、th plastic in their bellies. Ninety percent of seabirds are now eating plastics on a regular basis. By 2050, that figure is expected to rise to 100 percent.And its not just wildlife that is threatened by the plastics in our seas. Humans are consuming plastics through the seafood we eat. I could unde

41、rstand why some people see ocean plastic as a disaster, worth mentioning to the same degree as climate change. But ocean plastic is not as complicated as climate change. There are no ocean trash deniers (否认者), at least so far. To do something about it, we dont have to remake our planet energy system

42、.This is not a problem where we dont know what the solution is. We know how to pick up garbage. Anyone can do it. We know how to dispose (处理) of it. We know how to recycle. We can all start by thinking twice before we use single-use plastic products. Things that may seem ordinary, like using a reusa

43、ble bottle or a reusable bag-when taken collectively, these choices really do make a difference.1、Why is plastics pollution research still a very early science?AThe plastics pollution research is too difficult.BPlastics have produced less pollution than coal.CThe world couldnt possibly function with

44、out plastics.DPlastics have gained in popularity too fast for science to catch up.2、How did the author support his opinion in Paragraph 3?ABy statistics.BBy quotations from leading experts.CBy using examples from his own experience.DBy comparison and contrast.3、What can we infer about climate change

45、?AClimate change is caused by human activities.BSome people hold some doubts about climate change.CClimate change is less important than ocean pollution.DOcean plastic is more complicated than climate change.4、What is the main idea of this passage?AOcean plastic is a global issue.BThe oceans become

The book tells the story of a man who is shipwrecked (遭遇海难的). He spends 28 years on an island near Venezuela. The book te

47、lls the story of everything that happens to Robinson Crusoe. He hopes someone will rescue him, but he has been there for so long on his own that he also begins to fear being rescued.Robinson Crusoe was published in 1719. Most experts believe the story is based on the life of Alexander Selkirk, who w

48、as a Scottish sailor. On an expedition (探险) in 1704, Selkirk had an argument with his ships captain. Selkirk thought the ship was not safe and was about to fall apart.When the ship stopped at a remote island to get fresh water? Selkirk got off. He tried to get the other crew members to leave with hi

49、m, but nobody would. The ship then sailed away without him. Selkirk spent four years and four months on his own on the island, known as Aguas Buenas.Selkirk was finally rescued by a ship that visited the island in 1709. The ships captain was grateful to Selkirk because he provided food for the crew

50、when they arrived.Now archaeologists think they have found the remains of Selkirks camp on Aguas Buenas. They found two deep holes that would have held wooden posts. The archaeologists say this is evidence that Selkirk built a shelter there. The post holes are near a fresh water stream. They are loc

51、ated quite high up, which would have meant that Selkirk was able to watch out for the ships coming close to the island.The most interesting evidence, the archaeologists say, is part of a piece of equipment used by sailors to navigate (导航). Historians believe Selkirk was a navigator, so the instrumen

52、t could have belonged to him.Robinson Crusoe was published ten years after Selkirk was rescued. Most experts think Daniel Defoe heard and read stories about Selkirk, which inspired him to write the book.1、Why did Selkirk choose to land on the remote island?ABecause he had quarrels with the crew memb

53、ers.BBecause the captain ordered him to get fresh water.CBecause he wanted to go on an adventure there.DBecause he thought the ship he was on was in danger.2、We can infer from the text that the ship that visited Aguas Buenas in 1709 .Alost its way while sailingBlacked fresh water upon arrivalCwas be

54、ing navigated by SelkirkDwas running out of food upon arrival3、How could Selkirk see ships that might rescue him, according to archaeologists?ABy asking the crew members on the ships.BBy sending messages to the ships captains.CBy watching from his shelter high on the island.DBy using a piece of equi

55、pment used to navigate.4、The author wrote the text to .Aexplain the origin of Robinson CrusoeBpromote sales of Robinson CrusoeCcriticise Alexander Selkirks deedsDpraise Daniel Defoe for his writing inspiration第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项26（30分）When Ju
