【语篇解读】科学家认为由于气候变化,到本世纪末,世界上大部分种植小麦的地
区将受到缺水的影响,而如果气候变化得不到缓解,全球小麦的产量将会减少。
1.Howwillclimatechangehurtwheatproduction?
A.Byloweringthetemperature.
B.Byreducingthewatersupply.
C.Bypollutingthesoil.
D.Byfloodingthefield.
B[细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知,由于气候变化,小麦种植地将受到缺水的
影响;又根据第四段可知,缺水会影响小麦产量,故选瓦]
2.WhatcanwelearnfromParagraph3?
A.WheatproductioncauseddroughtsinmostmainlandU.S.states.
B.TheUnitedStatesisthebiggestwheatproducerintheworld.
C.TheUnitedStateswillsufferalotfromclimatechange.
D.ClimatechangeiscloselywatchedbyAmericanscientists.
C[推理判断题。根据第三段的内容,尤其是“theU.S.couldbe'oneofthetop
mostaffectedwheatproducersJ,,可推知,美国将在气候变化中受到很大影响,故选C。]
3.Whyiswheatunlikelytobereplacedbyothercropsinadrought?
A.Itistheprimaryfoodformostcountries.
B.Itisnotinfluencedbyglobalwarming.
C.Itiswidelygrowninmostcountries.
D.Itneedslesswaterthanothercrops.
D[细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知,小麦不像其他作物那样那么需要水,在
相当长的一段时间内没有水也能生存,因此小麦不太可能被其他作物取代,故选D。]
4.Inwhichsectionofanewspapermaythistextappear?
A.Health.B.Science.
C.Education.D.Entertainment.
B[推理判断题。通读全文可知,这是一篇有关气候变化对小麦产量影响的文章,由
此可推知,本文可能出现在报纸的科学版块,故选B。]

【语篇解读】科学家和环保组织担心席卷亚马逊雨林的火灾将加剧气候变化危机,
威胁生物多样性。今年,位于巴西的部分亚马逊雨林火灾数量显著增加。
5.Whatdoestheunderlinedword"mitigating“inParagraph2probablymean?
A.Increasing.B.Relieving.
C.Ignoring.D.Improving.
B[词义猜测题。根据第二段第三、四句可知,大片的热带雨林在世界生态系统中扮
演着重要的角色,因为它们吸收热量,而不是将热量反射回大气中;此外,热带雨林还储存
二氧化碳并制造氧气,以确保更少的二氧化碳被释放。由此可知,热带雨林能够减轻气候变
化带来的影响。故可推知画线词的含义与“relieving”的含义相近,故选B。]
6.WhatcanwelearnfromThomas'sandAnt6nio,swords?
A.Thebiodiversitymakestherainforestunique.
B.Therainforestfiresresultinseriousconsequences.
C.Theglobalclimatecrisisbringsmorerainforestfires.
D.Thedryweatherleadstotherainforestfires.
B[推理判断题。根据第三段中Thomas所说的话uAnyforestdestroyedisathreat
tobiodiversityandpeople”以及Ant6nio所说的话“Inthemidstoftheglobalclimate
crisis,wecannotaffordmoredamagetoamajorsourceofoxygenandbiodiversity
可知,Thomas认为任何森林的破坏都是对生物多样性和人们的威胁,AntGnio认为在全球气
候危机的情况下,我们承担不起氧气和生物多样性的主要来源(即亚马逊雨林)被更多破坏的
后果。由此可推知,两人意在表明,雨林大火导致了严重的后果。故选B。]
【干扰项分析】根据上述分析可知,两人并没有强调生物多样性成就了雨林的独特
性,故A项表述错误。
7.WhydoestheauthorlistthenumbersinParagraph4?
A.Toprovetheimportanceoftherainforest.
B.Toshowthereasonforforestfires.
C.Toexplaintheprocessoftheresearch.
D.Topresentthereductioninrainforestareas.
D[推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的"thenumberofforestfiresinBrazil
quicklyincreased”和第三句中的“theforestareasintheBrazilianAmazon
rainforesthavedecreasedbybetween20and30percent可推知,第四段列举数字是
为了说明,亚马逊雨林由于森林火灾的影响,其面积减少了一些。故选D。]
8.Whatdoesthispassagemainlytalkabout?
A.Theclimatechangecrisisisworsening.
B.Theforestareasareonthedecline.
C.”Thelungsoftheworld”isburning.
D.Theworld,secosystemisunderattack.
C[主旨大意题。文章第一段为文章的总述部分,表明本年席卷亚马逊雨林的火灾将
加剧气候变化危机,威胁生物多样性;第二至第五段介绍了亚马逊雨林火灾对生物多样性以
及森林面积等的影响,其中第四段又突出强调亚马逊雨林火灾数量显著增加。由此可知c
项符合题意。]

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。燃烧煤导致了大量的能引起温室效应的二氧化碳排
放到了大气中,仅仅是减少二氧化碳的排放并不足以避免全球气候变暖带来的灾难。现有的
实验阶段的去除二氧化碳的机器又太贵,无法大面积普及使用。还好一项新的研究表明,有

的包装对环保有益。故选D。]
6.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“fine-tune“inParagraph3mean?
A.Attach.B.Adjust.

B[词义猜测题。第三段主要讲述量身定制餐会降低浪费。根据画线句"They
fine-tunetheamountoffoodtowhattheywillactuallyeat.(人们可以根据将要吃
多少来调整食物数量。”'可知,fine-tune意为“调节,调整”,故选B。]

再根据最后一句"Butifthepackagingcanbereused,ifit'sglassbottles,likein
theolddays,wecangetsomebenefits.(但是如果这些包装能够被再利用,对我们还是
会有一些益处的。)”可推出作者对饭盒的使用是客观的态度。故选C。]
