11、从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。21（6分） If you buy a washing machine, a fridge or a television in Europe, it comes with a sticker. Thanks to a 1992 EU rule, all appliances must be labelled (贴标签) with their energy efficiency. So why has our food system-which threatens 10,000 species with extinction, produce

12、s about 30% of greenhouse gases, and drives 800/o of our air pollution-only ever had voluntary eco-labels?The appliances ruling had a huge impact; initially, 75% of fridges and freezers were rated G to D(low efficiency) , but today 98% are classed A+ or A+. Worldwide, the energy efficiency of labell

13、ed appliances has increased three times faster than appliances without labels. Introducing an equal system for food could have an even bigger impact.Mandatory environmental labels would change how we produce and consume in far-reaching ways. First, producers would have to measure their impacts in a

14、uniform way and be accountable for the results. This would not be expensive: it is free to monitor environmental impacts using digital tools such as Field print and the Cool Farm Tool. Second, they support sustainable consumption. Our research found that products that look, taste and cost the same c

15、an have dramatically different environmental impacts. High-impact beef producers use 5,400% more land and create l,000% more greenhouse gases than low-impact producers. Labels would allow consumers to tell these products apart.They would highlight both high-and low-impact producers, in the same way,

16、 across multiple products. This would encourage more people to think about their choices by exposing them to the facts every time they are in the shops. We can also use labels to turn smaller consumer changes into large environmental benefits: because a small number of producers create a large share

17、 of the impact, simply avoiding high-impact producers can make a huge contribution to pollution reductions.1、Why does the author mention the appliances in Paragraph 1 ？ATo applaud the 1992 EU rule.BTo bring up the topic of labelling food.CTo point out the pollution they caused.DTo compare their ener

18、gy consumption rates.2、What do the figures in Paragraph 2 show?AThe importance of saving energy.BThe debate about eco-labelled appliances.CThe effectiveness of the appliances ruling.DThe problem caused by appliances of low efficiency.3、What does the word “Mandatory” in Paragraph 3 mean?ACompulsory.B

19、Effective.CDifferent.DIndependent.4、What can be learned about eco-labels?AThey will increase the profits of low-impact producers.BThey can show producers environmental impacts.CThey will guide consumers to buy healthier food.DThey can expose consumers to more products22（8分）The first truly autonomous

20、 cars vehicles that drive down the streets with no one behind the wheel have finally arrived.Waymo, which began life as Googles self-driving car project, announced that it had let its driverless cars loose in parts of Phoenix, Arizona, with nobody in the front seats to take over in case of emergency

21、. Members of the public taking part in a Waymo trial in the desert city in the south-west US will be able to order the vehicles to come through an app “in the next few months”, the group said.Potentially one of the most revolutionary (革命性的) new technologies, as well as one of the most advertised, dr

22、iverless cars have been at the centre of a race between big automakers and technology companies. But while a number of groups are testing the technology on the streets with back-up drivers behind the wheel, most believe the approach of full autonomy is at least two years away.Google shocked the auto

23、 industry when it first showed a basic version of its driverless technology seven years ago, and it then invested more than $ l bn in autonomous vehicle research.Rivals (竞争对手) admit it still has a technology lead, though skeptics question whether the artificial intelligence is good enough to respond

24、 to the many unforeseen events that could occur on the road.Waymo believes it is the first company to reach a standard known in the driverless car world as level 4, meaning its cars can drive under full autonomy in preset areas that have been carefully mapped out and tested. Uber, General Motors, Ap

25、tiv PLC, BMW and others have been conducting testing to reach level 4, but all of them still keep a human in the drivers seat.1、What should people do in the driverless car test?ATake over in an emergency.BCall for a car without an app.CLet the car operate in full autonomy.DTest the car in a deserted

26、 place.2、The third paragraph may be used to show .AGoogles driverless technology is really advancedBWay mo will be widely acknowledged two years laterCdriverless cars will damage the entire automobile marketDthe technology of driverless cars is developing too fast3、Why is Waymo confident about tryin

27、g out its first driverless cars?ABecause it already invented a basic version.BBecause it has a technology lead in this area.CBecause it has reached full, level 4 autonomy.DBecause its cars can drive wherever a person likes.4、Whats the authors attitude towards the self-driving car?ASupportive. BOppos

28、ed.CSkeptical. DObjective.23（8分） It was 2012, and somewhere on a cassava (木暑)and banana farm in rural Tanzania, there were four of us standing in a circle: me, two farmers named Joyce and Elijah, and the former secretary general of the United Nations，Kofi Annan.Elijah and Joyce did most of the talki

29、ng. They told us how this farm was unlike any they had worked on; how there were improved crop varieties and new tools to process the harvest. There was even a daycare centre near the farm. This way, women could spend more time selling what they grew* I rattled off (不假思索地说出)some questions. Do you se

30、ll your cassava only here一or do you ship it somewhere else? How far is the market? Have you seen a difference in your yields? Kofi, though, mostly listened.Later, after we left the fields and walked towards the daycare centre where there was a bigger crowd, Kofi started talking. He was telling jokes

31、, trying to put everyone at ease, and doing a very good job of it. The man had the deepest, most infectious laugh Ive ever heard and an incredibly commanding voice. He sounded like an actor playing himself.Kofi and I had attended a lot of the same UN events, and hed visited our foundations offices i

32、n Seattle a few times, so Id seen him charm a room before. But this day on the cassava farm was different. He was completely at home here. I suppose I shouldnt have been surprised: Kofi Annan, of all the world leaders I had met, had spent the most time thinking about how to help places like this far

33、m and people like Joyce and Elijah.When my husband Bill and I started our foundation in 2000，we still had so many questions about the best ways to fight poverty and disease, and Kofi, it seemed, already had the answers. That year, hed written a manifesto (宣目)about the UNs role in the 21st century. I

34、n its final pages, hed included a set of targets around poverty and disease reduction that he wanted the world to achieve by 2015. These became known as the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), and at first, critics dismissed them immediately. Cut extreme poverty in half? Stop the spread of HIV, mala

35、ria and TB, the three greatest killers in poor countries? At best, it was overly optimistic.Kofi wasnt satisfied with just setting the goals, though. He wanted to push the world to achieve them. No other secretary general was so able to connect the UNs heart with its brain, its mission to lift up th

36、e sick and the poor with an effective plan for doing so. He was a master，too, at bringing world leaders along for the ride.Today, there are 27 million people alive who would have otherwise died from HIV-related illness, TB or malaria And they live, in large part, because Kofi gathered the world to e

37、stablish the Global Fund, which pays for medicines and things that prevent those diseases from spreading, such as mosquito nets. The world met its goal of halving the global poverty rate by 2015; in fact, it did so five years ahead of schedule, in 2010. “Development experts，” one observer wrote, “ar

38、e still rubbing their eyes.When he received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2001，Kofi said that “todays real borders are not between nations, but between the powerful and powerless”. He saw Africas small farmers as part of the latter camp and wanted to give them a way to lift themselves out of poverty. Thi

39、s was what led us to that cassava farm back in 2012.I remember that after our visit that day, Kofi thanked me for the foundations work. He was generous in his praise，and then he gave me a nickname. “Mama Melinda， he called me.It was a term of respect, typically given to an elder, and I felt honored

40、but surprised. Mama Melinda? If there was one person who deserved such an honour, I thought it wasnt me.1、Kofi Annans inspection of the farm is mentioned to .Aintroduce the carefree lifestyle of African peopleBillustrate his close relationship with African farmersCemphasize the gravity of poverty in

41、 African countriesDshow his concern for the poverty-relief work in Africa2、We can know from the passage that the MDG .Afailed to win support from leaders of the worldBwas too ambitious and optimistic to be successfulCfocused more on the goals than effective measuresDrevealed Kofi s extraordinary wis

42、dom and capability3、What can we infer from the underlined part in Para.7?AIt was hard to see where the hope lay.BThe success of the MDG was unbelievable .CThe development experts were moved to tears.DThe long-term commitment made people sleepy.4、We can learn from Kofis words in Para.8 that .Athe pow

46、 was his way of telling me, “Weve got to go back up.”When I got to the top of the stairs, I turned around and saw a light on, but I didnt remember leaving one on.
