他正是多年前帮助了自己的Gordon。55．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Unfortunately,theonlyonetrainadaybacktomyhomeinSydneyhadalreadyleft.SoIthoughtI’dhitcharide(搭便车).(不幸的是，每天唯一一趟回悉尼家的火车已经开走了。所以我想搭个便车)”可知，作者之所以想搭便车，是因为错过了最后一趟火车/因为回家的唯一一班火车已经开走了。故答Becauseshemissedtheonlytrainbackhome./Becausetheonlytrainbackhomehadleft.56．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Whenwearrivedathishouse,hemadeussandwiches.Afterlunch,hehelpedmefindalifthome.(我们到他家时，他给我们俩做了三明治。午饭后，他找人把我送回了家)”可知，Gordon不但给作者做了午饭，还找人开车送作者回家。故答Hemadehersandwichesandhelpedherfindalifthome./Hegaveherlunchandhelpedherfindalift.57．细节理解题。根据第三段中“ItwasanotherchancetorepaysomeoneforthefavourI’dbeengivendecadesearlier.(这是我报答别人几十年前给我恩惠的一次机会)”由此可知，作者之所以帮助老人，是因为她认为这是一个报答别人几十年前帮助了自己的机会。故答Becauseshethoughtitwasanotherchancetorepaysomeoneforthefavourshe’dbeengivendecadesearlier./Becauseshewantedtorepayforthefavour(kindness)shegotbefore.58．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Icouldn’trememberwhereI’dmethim.Hethentoldmehewasthemanwhohadgivenmelunchandhelpedmefindaliftallthoseyearsago.ItwasGordon.(我记不起在哪儿见过他。然后他告诉我，他就是多年以前给了我午饭吃、还帮我搭车的那个人。他就是戈登)”结合文章讲述了一个名叫Gordon的人曾经帮助了作者，而15年后，作者在开车去附近的一个小镇时，看到一位老人在酷热中突然倒在了地上，帮助了老人，发现他正是多年前帮助了自己的Gordon。可推知，作者想要传达的是“善有善报”或做“好事总会有回报”的信息。故答Kindnesscanbepassedandrewarded./Agoodturndeservesanother./Gooddeedswillpayoff.59．此为开放性题目，言之有理即可，题干为：如果你看到一个老人突然倒在地上，你会怎么办？为什么？可回答：我会跑过去和他谈谈。如果病情严重，我将乘出租车送他去医院。如果不行，我就帮他打电话给他的孩子或者送他回家。我认为互相帮助可以温暖世界。故答I'llrunoverandhaveatalkwithhim.Ifit’sserious,I’llsendhimtothehospitalbytaxi.Ifit’snot,I’llhelphimcallhischildrenorsendhimhome.Ithinkhelpingwitheachotherwarmstheworld.北京市顺义区第一中学2021-2022学年高二上学期期中质量检测英语试题【答案】37.Byplantingcommunitygardens.38.Improvetheappearanceofaneighborhood.39.Theyplantedvegetablesandflowers.40.Asanexamplebenefitingfromacommunitygarden.【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了美国各地社区正在走向绿色，除了通过控制污染的循环利用来关注环境，也有人通过种植社区花园来绿化他们的社区，园艺有很多优点，能够改善社区外观，还团结了社区居民。接着，作者举例了费城的诺里斯广场，是一个受益于社区花园的社区。【37题详解】考查细节理解。根据第一段“Today,communitiesaroundtheUSaregoinggreen.Forsome,thatmeanspayingattentiontotheenvironmentbyrecyclingofcontrollingpollution.Butothersareturningtheirneighborhoodsgreenbyplantingcommunitygardens.（今天，美国各地的社区正在走向绿色。对一些人来说，这意味着通过控制污染的循环利用来关注环境。但也有人通过种植社区花园来绿化他们的社区。）”可知，除了回收控制污染外，美国各地的社区还通过“种植社区花园”走向绿色，故答案为Byplantingcommunitygardens。【38题详解】考查细节理解。根据第二段“Agrowingnumberofgovernmentandcommunityleaderspointoutthatgardeningisagreatwaytoimprovetheappearanceofaneighborhood(越来越多的政府和社区领导人指出，园艺是改善社区外观的一个好方法)”可知，园艺能改善社区外观。因此，园艺的好处之一是“改善社区的外观”，故答案为Improvetheappearanceofaneighborhood。【39题详解】考查细节理解。根据第三段“ThenagroupofPuertoRicanwomenplantedvegetablesandflowersinonevacantlot.(然后一群波多黎各妇女在一个空置的停车场种植蔬菜和鲜花)”可知，波多黎各妇女在空地上种植了蔬菜和鲜花，故答案为Theyplantedvegetablesandflowers.【40题详解】考查推理判断。根据上文可知，美国各地的社区正在走向绿色，许多社区种植花园来绿化社区，再根据第三段“NorrisSquareinPhiladelphiaisaneighborhoodthathasbenefitsfromacommunitygarden.(费城的诺里斯广场是一个受益于社区花园的社区)”可推知，作者提到费城诺里斯广场的故事的原因是：为了举例说明受益于社区花园的社区。故答案为Asanexamplebenefitingfromacommunitygarden.北京市昌平区第二中学2021-2022学年高二上学期期中考试英语试卷【答案】40.TheArcticicecapplaysanimportantroleinprotectinganimalhabitatsandpreventingnaturaldisasters.41.Dr.StevenDeschandagroupofscientistsfromArizonaStateUniversityintheUnitedStatesthinktheycanhelptobuildupArcticseaiceagainandtheywanttosetupwind-poweredpumpsontheexistingseaice.42.SomescientistswereworriedabouttheprojectandDr.Deschhopedmorepeoplecouldhelpimproveit.Fromthefirstlineofthelastparagraph,weknowthatDr.Deschsaidhisteamhopedtheirproposalwouldgetmorepeopleinterestedinlookingforasolutiontotheproblemofmeltingseaice.Sothepartofthestatement“Dr.Deschhopedmorepeoplecouldhelpimproveit”isfalse.43.Firstly,weshouldsaveresources,suchaswater,electricityinourdailylife.Secondly,weshouldplantmoretrees.What’smore,weshouldchoosetorideabikewhenwegoout,insteadofdrivingacar.【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一组科学家重建北极冰盖的计划。【40题详解】考查细节理解。根据第三段“Withoutseaice,manyanimalswouldlosetheirnaturalhabitatsandcouldbecomeendangered.Itcouldalsoaffecttheweather,withmorestormsanderosionalongthecoast.(如果没有海洋冰层，许多动物将失去它们的自然栖息地，并可能成为濒危物种。它还会影响天气，沿海地区会出现更多的风暴和侵蚀)”可知，北极冰盖对保护动物的栖息地以及人类防范自然灾害有很重要的作用。故答案为TheArcticicecapplaysanimportantroleinprotectinganimalhabitatsandpreventingnaturaldisasters.【41题详解】考查细节理解。根据第四段“Dr.StevenDeschandagroupofscientistsfromArizonaStateUniversityintheUnitedStatesthinktheycanhelptobuildupArcticseaiceagain.Theywanttosetupwind-poweredpumpsontheexistingseaice.(StevenDesch博士和来自美国亚利桑那州立大学的一组科学家认为，他们可以帮助再次建立北极海冰。他们想在现有的海冰上安装风力泵)”可知，StevenDesch博士和其他科学家们想再次建立北极海冰并且想在现有的海冰上安装风力泵。故答案为Dr.StevenDeschandagroupofscientistsfromArizonaStateUniversityintheUnitedStatesthinktheycanhelptobuildupArcticseaiceagainandtheywanttosetupwind-poweredpumpsontheexistingseaice.42题详解】考查细节理解。根据最后一段第一句“Dr.Deschsaidhisteamhopedtheirproposalwouldgetmorepeopleinterestedinlookingforasolutiontotheproblemofmeltingseaice.(Desch博士说，他的团队希望他们的提议能让更多人对寻找解决海冰融化问题的办法感兴趣)”可知，Desch博士和他的团队希望他们的提议能让更多人对寻找解决海冰融化问题的办法感兴趣，而不是像陈述中所说：Desch博士希望更多的人能够帮助改善这一提议（Dr.Deschhopedmorepeoplecouldhel
