C．Remainedstable. D．Crashed.答案：D词义猜测题。根据but判断，这是转折关系，以前由于皮毛交易，海狸鼠的数量处于控制之中，现在这种海狸鼠之所以能够数量激增，是由于市场不再销售海狸鼠皮毛导致的。由此可以推断出画线词collapsed和crashed的意思最相近，意为“暴跌”。故选D。4．WhatcanweinferaboutwearingfurinNewYorkaccordingtoMorgan?A．It'sformal.B．It'srisky. C．It'sharmful. D．It'straditional.答案：B推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句可知，为了给人们一种无罪恶感的选择，即人们可以穿皮衣而不被人泼油漆，Morgan(摩根)认为在纽约将是一件大事。由此可推知，在纽约穿动物皮衣是有风险的。故选B。Passage2(2021·陕西省西安市第一中学高三上学期模拟调研考试)EarthHouristheworld'sbiggestevent,usuallyheldannuallyonthelastSaturdayeveninginMarch.ItwasinspiredbyamovementinSydney,Australia,onMarch31,2007,whenmorethan2.2millionSydneycitizensandmorethan2,100businessswitchedofflightsandelectricalappliancesforanhourtosupportcontrollingtheleadingcauseofglobalwarming:coal－firedelectricity.Justoneyearlater,in2008,EarthHourbecameaglobalmovement,withmorethan50millionpeoplein35countriestakingpart.GloballandmarkssuchasNewYork'sEmpireStateBuilding,Egypt'spyramids,London'sBigBen,Sydney'sOperaHouse,theEiffelTowerandShanghaiTowerstoodassilent,darkenedsymbolsofhopeandsustainability(可持续发展).The13theditionofEarthHour,organizedbygreengroupWorldWideFundforNature,orWWF,sawmillionsofpeopleacross180countriesturnofftheirlightsat8：30pmtohighlightenergyuseandtheneedforconservation.Lastyear,EarthHourwasobservedinmorethan7,000townsandcitiesin187countries.In2011,EarthHouraddedsomethingnewtotheannualevent,urgingpeopleto“gobeyondthehour”bycommittingtoatleastoneenvironmentalactiontheycouldcontinueallyearlongtohelptomaketheworldabetterplace.Thegoal,ofcourse,istoinspirepeopletoreducetheirenergyconsumptioneveryday,notbysittinginthedarkforanhoureachnight,butbytakingsimplestepsthatcanhaveagreateffect.WWF－AustraliaCEODermotO'Gormansaid,“Whilethelights－offeventisasymbolicgesture,EarthHourhasledsuccessfulcampaignsoverthepastdecadetobanplasticsintheGalapagosIslandsandplant17milliontreesinKazakhstan.”篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。EarthHour(地球一小时)呼吁人们在每年三月最后一个星期六晚上的八点半到九点半期间熄灯一小时，以此来激发人们对保护地球的责任感。1．HowdidtheauthordescribethedevelopmentofEarthHour?A．Bylistingnumbers. B．Byanalyzingcauses.C．Byusingfamoussayings.D．Bymakingcomparisons.答案：A细节理解题。根据第一段中的“whenmorethan2.2millionSydneycitizensandmorethan2,100businessswitchedofflightsandelectricalappliances”及第二段中的“morethan50millionpeoplein35countriestakingpart\”和“sawmillionsofpeopleacross180countriesturnofftheirlightsat8：30pmtohighlightenergyuseandtheneedforconservation\”以及“morethan7,000townsandcitiesin187countries\”可知，作者通过列数字的论证方式阐述了“地球一小时”的发展。故选A。2．Whatcanweinferfromthethirdparagraph?A．ItwasthefirsttimethatEarthHoureventhadbeenheldin2011.B．Peoplearecalledontodomorebesidesswitchingofftheelectricity.C．EarthHourinspirespeopletoturnofftheirlightsformorethananhour.D．Noenergywillbeconsumedeverydaybysittinginthedarkforanhour.答案：B推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“In2011,EarthHouraddedsomethingnewtotheannualevent,urgingpeopleto‘gobeyondthehour’bycommittingtoatleastoneenvironmentalactiontheycouldcontinueallyearlongtohelptomaketheworldabetterplace.\”可推知，除了断电之外，人们被鼓励做更多的事情来减少能源消耗。故选B。3．WhatdoweknowaboutEarthHour?A．IttakesplacesonthelastdayofMarch.

C．Supportive. D．Uninterested.答案：C推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“EarthHourhasledsuccessfulcampaignsoverthepastdecadetobanplasticsintheGalapagosIslandsandplant17milliontreesinKazakhstan.”可推知，DermotO'Gorman(德莫特·欧达梦)对“地球一小时”持支持的态度。故选C。Passage3(2020·全国卷Ⅲ)JourneyBackinTimewithScholarsClassicalProvence(13days)JourneythroughthebeautifulcountrysideofProvence，France,withProf.OriZ.Soltes.Wewillvisitsomeofthebest­preservedRomanmonumentsintheworld.OurtouralsoincludesachancetowalkinthefootstepsofVanGoghandGauguin.Fieldsofflowers,tile­roofed(瓦屋顶)villagesandtastymealsenrichthiswonderfulexperience.SouthernSpain(15days)Spainhaslovelywhitetownsandthescent(芳香)oforanges,butitisalsoatreasuryofancientremainsincludingthecitiesleftbytheGreeks,RomansandArabs.AswetravelsouthfromMadridwithProf.RonaldMessiertohistoricToledo,RomanMeridaandintoAndalucia,weexplorehistoricalmonumentsandarchitecture.China'sSacredLandscapes(21days)DiscovertheChinaof“pastages”，itswalledcities,templesandmountainscenerywithProf.RobertThorp.Highlights(精彩之处)includeChina'smostsacredpeaksatMountTaiandHangzhou'srollinghills,waterwaysandpeacefultemples.WewillwanderintraditionalsmalltownsandendourtourwithanexceptionalmuseuminShanghai.Tunisia(17days)JoinProf.PedarFossonourin­depthTunisiantour.TourhighlightsincludetheRomancityofDougga,theundergroundNumidiancapitalatBullaRegia,RomanSbeitlaandtheremoteareasaro
