From the time he was a young boy Jim Haskins always had a book in his hand. While other kids were outside playing ball, Jim was usually reading. He could be found in one of his favorite places: curled up underneath the kitchen table or up in the tree that grew in his front yard.
Jim was born in Demopolis, Alabama, during the time of segregation (隔离). Because Jim was Black, he was not allowed to check out a single book at the public library. Libraries were for whites only. The laws of segregation separated Jim from all the books he longed to read. But Jim was determined. He convinced a teacher at school to lend him books of her own. He even managed to get some public library books through a white woman whom his mom worked for doing laundry.
When Jim was a teenager, Black Americans’ struggle for equal rights was becoming the civil rights movement. Many brave people were taking risks by refusing to follow unfair segregation laws. Jim went to Montgomery, Alabama, and joined a civil rights group. The group was headed by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Jim believed in King’s nonviolent approach to change. Once, during a peaceful march, Jim was arrested. Because of that, his college expelled him.
He did graduate from another college. Afterward, he went on to teach school in Harlem, a part of New York City. As a teacher, he had trouble finding books that interested his Black students. So he decided to write his own books about successful Black Americans. Through his writing, he met and interviewed many of the people he admired, including Rosa Parks.
Today, libraries have more than one hundred books written by Jim Haskins, the boy who loved to read, and today, children of all races can walk through the doors of any public library and find interesting books that inform, entertain, and inspire them.
4. What can we learn from the description in paragraph 1
A. Jim Haskins studied harder than other kids.
B. Jim Haskins had no interest in playing ball.
C. Jim Haskins was enthusiastic about reading.
D. Jim Haskins preferred to read under the table.
5. What does the underlined word “expelled” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Dismissed. B. Promoted. C. Praised. D. Monitored.
6. Why was Jim Haskins determined to write his own books
A. To rise to be a famous writer. B. To put an end to segregation.
C. To appeal to Black students. D. To introduce the people he admired.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pathways into the Library B. Anxiety for Knowledge
C. Struggle for Equal Rights D. Protest against Segregation
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了主人公吉姆·哈斯金斯是一个热爱阅读的男孩。但是，因为吉姆是黑人，他在公共图书馆一本书都不能借。图书馆只对白人开放。种族隔离法使吉姆得不到他想读的所有书。后来，在吉姆不断争取平等权利的斗争努力下，今天，所有种族的孩子都可以走进任何公共图书馆的大门，找到有趣的书，给他们提供知识、娱乐和启发。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“From the time he was a young boy, Jim Haskins always had a book in his hand. While other kids were outside playing ball, Jim was usually reading.”（从吉姆·哈斯金斯还是个小男孩的时候起，他手里就总是拿着一本书。当其他孩子在外面打球时，吉姆通常在看书。）可知，我们能从第一段的描述中了解到吉姆·哈斯金斯酷爱阅读。故选C项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Jim went to Montgomery, Alabama, and joined a civil rights group. The group was headed by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Jim believed in King’s nonviolent approach to change. Once, during a peaceful march, Jim was arrested.”（吉姆去了阿拉巴马州的蒙哥马利，加入了一个民权组织。该组织由马丁·路德·金博士领导，吉姆相信金的非暴力变革方法。有一次，在一次和平游行中，吉姆被捕了。）由此可知，作为参加游行被逮捕的结果， 此处应该表示“因此，他的大学开除了他”。故可猜测划线单词expelled为“开除”的意思，结合选项A项Dismissed“开除”意思一致。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“As a teacher, he had trouble finding books that interested his Black students. So he decided to write his own books about successful Black Americans.”（作为一名教师，他很难找到黑人学生感兴趣的书。所以他决定自己写一本关于成功的美国黑人的书。）可推知，吉姆·哈斯金斯决定自己写书是因为想吸引黑人学生。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“Today, libraries have more than one hundred books written by Jim Haskins, the boy who loved to read, and today, children of all races can walk through the doors of any public library and find interesting books that inform, entertain, and inspire them.”（今天，图书馆里有一百多本吉姆·哈斯金斯写的书，他是一个热爱阅读的男孩。今天，所有种族的孩子都可以走进任何公共图书馆的大门，找到有趣的书，给他们提供知识、娱乐和启发。）可知，文章主要讲的是主人公吉姆·哈斯金斯他是一个热爱阅读的男孩。但是，因为吉姆是黑人，他在公共图书馆一本书都不能借。图书馆只对白人开放。种族隔离法使吉姆得不到他想读的所有书。后来，在吉姆不断争取平等权利的斗争努力下，今天，所有种族的孩子都可以走进任何公共图书馆的大门，找到有趣的书，给他们提供知识、娱乐和启发。故文章最好的标题是“进入图书馆的通道”。故选A项。
C
Some talk of building settlements on the moon or mars to help make sure humanity survives long into the future. Others have their sights set closer to home: on future cities under the ocean.
“Technologically speaking, it is absolutely possible to colonize the bottom of the sea,” says Fabien Cousteau, a well-known ocean explorer who once spent 31 days living in what is now the world’s only functioning undersea habitat, Aquarius. It’s about the size of a school bus and located 62 feet below the ocean surface off the Florida Keys.
Just as astronauts test what it would be like to live in space, aquanauts try out undersea living with an eye on the future. Escaping from disasters such as climate change, wars, or pandemics is one reason to live under the sea. Others include studying, exploring, or appreciating the ocean. It’s costly and expensive to constantly keep up an ocean habitat which must pump in or make its own air, electricity, and fresh water. Inhabitants have to deal with high pressure. And infections can develop rapidly due to high humidity.
Despite the challenges, several new ocean habitats and cities are under construction. A series of space station-like undersea living quarters for aquanauts called Proteus are scheduled to be completed by 2025 off Curacao, an island north of Venezuela in South America. An undersea colony called Ven Base Alpha will be built near a hydrothermal vent, which would supply it with energy. Meanwhile, an undersea city called Ocean Spiral in Japan would link its surface to the deep sea, using the difference in pressure to generate energy and produce fresh water. This sounds amazing, but it would be extremely expensive and remains just a design.
Not everyone agrees that building homes in the ocean is a good idea. This type of development could place even more strain on ecosystems that are already struggling with pollution and climate change. It’s important to make sure that any construction is done carefully, says Susanne Menden-Deuer, an oceanographer at the University of Rhode Island. Wild undersea habitats should be treated as “the precious, irreplaceable resource that they are,” she says.
8. What do we know about Aquarius
A. It is still under construction.
B. It functions as an undersea school bus.
C. It is the only ocean habitat in operation.
D. It only allows a person to live there for 31 days.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The present and future of living under the sea.
B. The reasons and challenges of living under the sea.
C. The purpose and cost of building undersea settlements.
D. The problems and findings of building undersea settlements.
10. What would be the result of building homes in the ocean according to the text
A. Rapid development of undersea habitats.
B. Protection of irreplaceable ocean resource.
C Negative impacts on undersea ecosystems.
D. Struggles with pollution and climate change.
11. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A textbook.
B. An exam paper.
C. An academic article.
D. A science magazine.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是未来海底城市的展望以及建立海底城市存在的问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Fabien Cousteau, a well-known ocean explorer who once spent 31 days living in what is now the world’s only functioning undersea habitat, Aquarius.(著名的海洋探险家Fabien Cousteau曾经在现在世界上唯一一个正常运作的海底栖息地——Aquarius内生活了31天。)”可知，Fabien Cousteau说他在唯一一个正常运作的海底栖息地——Aquarius内生活了31天，由此可知，Aquarius是现在唯一一个正常运作的海底栖息地。故选C项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Escaping from disasters such as climate change, wars, or pandemics is one reason to live under the sea. Others include studying, exploring, or appreciating the ocean. It’s costly and expensive to constantly keep up an ocean habitat which must pump in or make its own air, electricity, and fresh water.(逃避气候变化、战争或流行病等灾难是人们生活在海底的原因之一。其他包括学习、探索或欣赏海洋。持续维持海洋栖息地是昂贵的，它必须自己泵入或制造空气、电力和淡水。居民们必须应对高压。)”可知，人们之所以生活在海底是为了逃避气候变化、战争或流行病等灾难，而且维持海洋栖息地是非常昂贵的，由此可知，第三段讲述了人们生活在海底的原因以及所面临的挑战。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“Not everyone agrees that building homes in the ocean is a good idea. This type of development could place even more strain on ecosystems that are already struggling with pollution and climate change.( 并不是每个人都同意在海洋里建房子是个好主意。这种发展可能会给已经在与污染和气候变化作斗争的生态系统带来更大的压力。)”可知，并非所有人都赞成在海洋里建房子，因为在海底建房子会使得与污染和气候变化作斗争的生态系统带来更大的压力，由此可知，在海底建房子会对海底的生态系统造成负面的影响。故选C 项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段“Some talk of building settlements on the moon or mars to help make sure humanity survives long into the future. Others have their sights set closer to home: on future cities under the ocean.(一些人谈到在月球或火星上建立定居点，以帮助确保人类在未来长期生存。其他人则把目光投向了离家更近的地方：未来的海底城市。)”可知，为帮助确保人类在未来长期生存，很多人把目光投向建立未来海底城市，由此可知，本文讲述的内容有种科幻的性质，所以文章可能出自于科学杂志。故选D项。
D
Far, far below your feet lies a source of nearly endless energy. Earth's core is about as hot as the surface of the Sun, so hot that it melts the rocky layers above it into magma, or liquid rock. Wouldn't it be great if we could tap into all that energy In some places, we do!
The Geysers is an area north of San Francisco in California where magma's heat turns a reservoir of underground water into steam. This region is home to 18 geothermal power plants. The steam rises up through spaces between the rocks underground, a bit like how steam pours from a teakettle boiling on a stove. The power plant has pipelines that send the steam into the turbines (涡轮机) where electricity flow is generated. Once the steam leaves the turbine, it goes into a cooling tower where it turns back into liquid. Then it's piped back into the reservoir to be reheated again. Other kinds of geothermal power plants pump hot groundwater into the power plant. Then the pressure is reduced, causing the liquid to flash into steam that turns the turbine and generates electricity flow. Once the steam cools and turns back into liquid, it's pumped back down into the reservoir to begin the cycle again.
So why don't we all heat our homes with free steam from the earth First, the heat has to be close enough to the surface for us to reach it. Next, there has to be plenty of underground water to be heated. Finally, there has to be a layer of rock that water or steam can flow through. So in places where all three of those things come together, geothermal energy can be a powerful renewable energy source. Besides, when a geothermal plant returns water back into the hot rocks of a reservoir, it makes the rock crack a bit, which can cause small earthquakes. There's another danger that comes with drilling near magma-pipes and other equipment might melt if they hit a pocket of magma or are caught in an eruption. One geothermal plant in Hawaii was partially buried by lava in 2018. But engineers are hopeful that the repaired plant will generate even more power. Geothermal energy isn't the answer for everywhere, but it's a piece of the puzzle to help slow climate change.
12. In which part of power plants is the electricity made
A. The turbine. B. The reservoir. C. The pipeline. D. The tower.
13. What prevents free steam from being widely developed according to paragraph 3
A. Hard surface and possible earthquakes.
B. Changeable climate and unqualified equipment.
C. Limited underground water and thin layers of rock.
D. Unsuitable geological conditions and potential dangers.
14. Why is the buried geothermal plant in Hawaii mentioned
A. To demonstrate the great effort that engineers made.
B. To show the power that the repaired plant can generate.
C. To illustrate the danger caused by drilling near magma.
D. To praise the engineers who repaired the generate plant.
15. What is the author's attitude towards geothermal energy
A. Unconcerned. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在你脚下很深的地方，蕴藏着无穷无尽的能量。地核的温度大约和太阳表面一样高，以至于它上面的岩层融化成岩浆，也就是液态岩石。文章重点介绍了地热能源的利用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The power plant has pipelines that send the steam into the turbines where electricity flow is generated.”（发电厂有管道将蒸汽送入涡轮机，在那里产生电力。）可知，电力是在发电厂的涡轮机这个部分产生的。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“So why don't we all heat our homes with free steam from the earth First, the heat has to be close enough to the surface for us to reach it. Next, there has to be plenty of underground water to be heated. Finally, there has to be a layer of rock that water or steam can flow through. So in places where all three of those things come together, geothermal energy can be a powerful renewable energy source.”（那么，为什么我们不都用地球上的免费蒸汽来为我们的家供暖呢？首先，热量必须离地表足够近，这样我们才能到达。其次，必须有足够的地下水来加热。最后，必须有一层岩石，水或蒸汽可以通过。所以在这三种能源同时存在的地方，地热能可以成为一种强大的可再生能源。）可推知，不适宜的地质条件和潜在的危险阻碍了免费蒸汽的广泛发展。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“There's another danger that comes with drilling near magma-pipes and other equipment might melt if they hit a pocket of magma or are caught in an eruption. One geothermal plant in Hawaii was partially buried by lava in 2018.”（在岩浆附近钻探还有另一个危险——如果管道和其他设备碰到岩浆区或被火山喷发困住，它们可能会融化。2018年，夏威夷的一家地热发电厂部分被熔岩掩埋。）可推知，提到了夏威夷的地下地热发电厂是为了说明在岩浆附近钻探所造成的危险。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Geothermal energy isn't the answer for everywhere, but it's a piece of the puzzle to help slow climate change.”（地热能源并不是所有地方的解决方案，但它是减缓气候变化的拼图中的一块。）可推知，作者对地热能源的态度是赞成的。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了《环球时报》发文称大英博物馆多年来未能妥善保管“属于其他国家的文化财产”，要求其归还目前保存的中国艺术品，大量社交媒体用户对此表示支持。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：数万名中国社交媒体用户支持中国官方媒体的呼吁，要求归还目前保存在大英博物馆的中国艺术品。分析句子可知，空处是修饰media的定语，应用society的形容词形式social，意为“社交的”，social media意为“社交媒体”。故填social。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意：数万名中国社交媒体用户支持中国官方媒体的呼吁，要求归还目前保存在大英博物馆的中国艺术品。分析句子可知，空处是修饰kept的状语，应用current的副词形式currently，意为“当前，目前”。故填currently。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意：“大英博物馆请归还中国文物”这个话题是对中国官方媒体《环球时报》发表的一篇呼吁免费归还大英博物馆所有文物的文章的回应。根据“in response”和“a piece”可推知，此处用固定短语in response to，意为“对……的回应”，因此空处应用介词to。故填to。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：“大英博物馆请归还中国文物”这个话题是对中国官方媒体《环球时报》发表的一篇呼吁免费归还大英博物馆所有文物的文章的回应。根据“called for”可推知，此处用固定短语call for… to do sth.，意为“呼吁……做某事”，且all cultural relics和return“归还”逻辑上是被动的关系，因此空处应用return的不定式被动语态。故填to be returned。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：两周前，约有2000件藏品被报道“丢失、被盗或损坏”，导致有人指责它未能履行其保护义务，大英博物馆面临压力。分析句子可知，空处和missing、damaged并列作补足语，为非谓语动词，steal“偷窃”和around 2,000 items逻辑上是被动的关系，因此应用steal的过去分词形式。故填stolen。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：两周前，约有2000件藏品被报道“丢失、被盗或损坏”，导致有人指责它未能履行其保护义务，大英博物馆面临压力。分析句子可知，句子主干成分完整，空处表示随着报道自然发生的结果，作结果状语，因此应用lead的现在分词形式。故填leading。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这些呼吁是在《环球时报》发表的一篇文章之后发出的，该文章称“世界知名的大英博物馆多年来未能妥善保管‘属于其他国家的文化财产’。”分析句子可知，空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词a piece，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，应用关系代词that或which作引导词。故填that/which。
【43题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：这些呼吁是在《环球时报》发表的一篇文章之后发出的，该文章称“世界知名的大英博物馆多年来未能妥善保管‘属于其他国家的文化财产’。”分析句子可知，空处作句子的谓语，结合时间状语up to these years可知，时态应用现在完成时，强调动作对现在的影响，主语The world-renowned British museum为单数，助动词应用has。故填has failed。
【44题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：它是西方最大的中国文物收藏之一。根据“one of the largest”可推知，此处用固定结构“one of the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数”，意为“最……的之一”，因此空处应用collection的复数形式。故填collections。
【45题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：收藏品包括绘画、版画、玉器和青铜器等大量珍贵物品。根据“large range of precious items”可知，此处用固定短语a large range of，意为“大规模的，大量的”，因此空处应用a。故填a。

第二节读后续写（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Andy’s finger traced the lines on a blank United States map each state represented by a number. He whispered to himself, “New Jersey is eating Pennsylvania, and Ohio is a chicken nugget.” Beside him lay another paper with numbers 1—50 written down. Despite 20 minutes of intense concentration, all Andy had to show for his efforts were those numbers.
“OK, and Utah is the washing machine. No, Montana is the washing machine. Or North Dakota Gah! They’re all washing machines!” Andy was caught in his confusion.
This wasn’t the first time his memory had failed him during a test. No matter how hard he studied, nothing seemed to stay in his brain for long. He had tried memory tricks, even spending nights examining an old paper map in his bedroom. It had given him a glimmer of hope, but now that hope felt distant.
The time was up, and Mr. Crane began collecting the answer sheets. Andy quickly stuffed his blank test into the pile, wanting to forget about it. Unfortunately, his brain seemed to remember only the things it should forget. During lunch, Andy stared at a map, frustrated that he had handed in a blank sheet of paper.
Andy’s friend Aaron shrugged. “You only need a 70 to pass.”
“Yeah, well it’s hard to get a 70 when you hand in a blank sheet of paper,” Andy mumbled, frowning.
Aaron popped a grape into his mouth. “Well, Mr. Crane will let you retake (补考) it tomorrow.”
Andy was the only one standing at Mr. Crane’s desk after school. He apologized quickly, head drooping. But instead of scolding him, Mr. Crane patted his shoulder, saying, “I think you are trying, but you might learn better by being active. Just practice more!”
Andy looked into Mr. Crane’s eyes, finding comfort in the teacher’s understanding gaze. Mr. Crane invited Andy to help him organize a pile of magnets (磁铁), each with the name of a state on it. On the wall hung a large magnetic map — part of a review game the class had been playing.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As Andy arranged the magnets, an idea suddenly came into his mind.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When doing homework, Andy was told he scored an 88 on the retake.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
As Andy arranged the magnets, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He placed Utah correctly and then proceeded to fix New Jersey and Pennsylvania. A surge of confidence washed over him as he looked at the map. Inspired, he slapped the Montana magnet in place, declaring it as an old man with a beard. The words flowed effortlessly from his mind, each state taking on a unique identity. Mr. Crane, who had quietly observed Andy’s progress, praised him for combining memory tricks with the physical act of moving pieces around the board. Encouraged by Mr. Crane, Andy practiced again. This time, everything seemed to stick in his brain. Then he took the retake the next day. Feeling more prepared than ever, he finished the test soon.
When doing homework, Andy was told he scored an 88 on the retake. His eyes widened, and for a moment, he couldn’t find the words to express his emotions. A grin spread across his face, stretching from ear to ear. He had done it! The hard work and persistence had paid off. Then, for a long time, the whole class was filled with his ear-splitting cries and his classmates’ cheers, whoops and applause congratulating him on his incredible pass. Andy couldn’t wait to express his thanks to Mr. Crane for his support and guidance. As he walked out of the classroom, a weight seemed to have lifted off his shoulders. The sun shone brighter, and he noticed the vibrant colors of the world around him. The once daunting road ahead now seemed filled with endless possibilities. Andy’s confidence soared, and he realized that the key to success was not just passively memorizing facts but truly understanding and connecting with the material.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为事件展开，讲述了Andy虽然很努力地学习，但是总是记不住东西，在地理考试中他高度集中精力地思考，但是什么也想不起来，等到Crane老师收卷的时候，他只能交上一张白纸。吃午饭的时候，他很沮丧，朋友Aaron安慰了他。放学后，Andy向Crane老师道了歉，老师没有责备他，而是鼓励他勤加练习，并请他帮忙整理一堆标着各州名称的磁铁。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“当Andy整理磁铁时，他突然想到了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写Andy突然想明白如何记忆各州的地理位置，Crane老师给予他鼓励，以及他参加了第二天的补考的情况。
②由第二段首句内容“在做作业时，Andy被告知他在补考中得了88分。”可知，第二段可描写Andy此时的心理活动，周围人的反应，以及Andy对学习的感悟。
2. 续写线索：想到主意——记忆地理位置——参加补考——得知补考成绩——心理活动及反应——对学习的感悟
3. 词汇激活

From the time he was a young boy, Jim Haskins always had a book in his hand. While other kids were outside playing ball, Jim was usually reading. He could be found in one of his favorite places: curled up underneath the kitchen table or up in the tree that grew in his front yard.
Jim was born in Demopolis, Alabama, during the time of segregation (隔离). Because Jim was Black, he was not allowed to check out a single book at the public library. Libraries were for whites only. The laws of segregation separated Jim from all the books he longed to read. But Jim was determined. He convinced a teacher at school to lend him books of her own. He even managed to get some public library books through a white woman whom his mom worked for doing laundry.
When Jim was a teenager, Black Americans’ struggle for equal rights was becoming the civil rights movement. Many brave people were taking risks by refusing to follow unfair segregation laws. Jim went to Montgomery, Alabama, and joined a civil rights group. The group was headed by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Jim believed in King’s nonviolent approach to change. Once, during a peaceful march, Jim was arrested. Because of that, his college expelled him.
He did graduate from another college. Afterward, he went on to teach school in Harlem, a part of New York City. As a teacher, he had trouble finding books that interested his Black students. So he decided to write his own books about successful Black Americans. Through his writing, he met and interviewed many of the people he admired, including Rosa Parks.
Today, libraries have more than one hundred books written by Jim Haskins, the boy who loved to read, and today, children of all races can walk through the doors of any public library and find interesting books that inform, entertain, and inspire them.
4. What can we learn from the description in paragraph 1
A. Jim Haskins studied harder than other kids.
B Jim Haskins had no interest in playing ball.
C. Jim Haskins was enthusiastic about reading.
D. Jim Haskins preferred to read under the table.
5. What does the underlined word “expelled” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Dismissed. B. Promoted. C. Praised. D. Monitored.
6. Why was Jim Haskins determined to write his own books
A. To rise to be a famous writer. B. To put an end to segregation.
C. To appeal to Black students. D. To introduce the people he admired.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pathways into the Library B. Anxiety for Knowledge
C. Struggle for Equal Rights D. Protest against Segregation
C
Some talk of building settlements on the moon or mars to help make sure humanity survives long into the future. Others have their sights set closer to home: on future cities under the ocean.
“Technologically speaking, it is absolutely possible to colonize the bottom of the sea,” says Fabien Cousteau, a well-known ocean explorer who once spent 31 days living in what is now the world’s only functioning undersea habitat, Aquarius. It’s about the size of a school bus and located 62 feet below the ocean surface off the Florida Keys.
Just as astronauts test what it would be like to live in space, aquanauts try out undersea living with an eye on the future. Escaping from disasters such as climate change, wars, or pandemics is one reason to live under the sea. Others include studying, exploring, or appreciating the ocean. It’s costly and expensive to constantly keep up an ocean habitat which must pump in or make its own air, electricity, and fresh water. Inhabitants have to deal with high pressure. And infections can develop rapidly due to high humidity.
Despite the challenges, several new ocean habitats and cities are under construction. A series of space station-like undersea living quarters for aquanauts called Proteus are scheduled to be completed by 2025 off Curacao, an island north of Venezuela in South America. An undersea colony called Ven Base Alpha will be built near a hydrothermal vent, which would supply it with energy. Meanwhile, an undersea city called Ocean Spiral in Japan would link its surface to the deep sea, using the difference in pressure to generate energy and produce fresh water. This sounds amazing, but it would be extremely expensive and remains just a design.
Not everyone agrees that building homes in the ocean is a good idea. This type of development could place even more strain on ecosystems that are already struggling with pollution and climate change. It’s important to make sure that any construction is done carefully, says Susanne Menden-Deuer, an oceanographer at the University of Rhode Island. Wild undersea habitats should be treated as “the precious, irreplaceable resource that they are,” she says.

D
Far, far below your feet lies a source of nearly endless energy. Earth's core is about as hot as the surface of the Sun, so hot that it melts the rocky layers above it into magma, or liquid rock. Wouldn't it be great if we could tap into all that energy In some places, we do!
The Geysers is an area north of San Francisco in California where magma's heat turns a reservoir of underground water into steam. This region is home to 18 geothermal power plants. The steam rises up through spaces between the rocks underground, a bit like how steam pours from a teakettle boiling on a stove. The power plant has pipelines that send the steam into the turbines (涡轮机) where electricity flow is generated. Once the steam leaves the turbine, it goes into a cooling tower where it turns back into liquid. Then it's piped back into the reservoir to be reheated again. Other kinds of geothermal power plants pump hot groundwater into the power plant. Then the pressure is reduced, causing the liquid to flash into steam that turns the turbine and generates electricity flow. Once the steam cools and turns back into liquid, it's pumped back down into the reservoir to begin the cycle again.
So why don't we all heat our homes with free steam from the earth First, the heat has to be close enough to the surface for us to reach it. Next, there has to be plenty of underground water to be heated. Finally, there has to be a layer of rock that water or steam can flow through. So in places where all three of those things come together, geothermal energy can be a powerful renewable energy source. Besides, when a geothermal plant returns water back into the hot rocks of a reservoir, it makes the rock crack a bit, which can cause small earthquakes. There's another danger that comes with drilling near magma-pipes and other equipment might melt if they hit a pocket of magma or are caught in an eruption. One geothermal plant in Hawaii was partially buried by lava in 2018. But engineers are hopeful that the repaired plant will generate even more power. Geothermal energy isn't the answer for everywhere, but it's a piece of the puzzle to help slow climate change.
12. In which part of power plants is the electricity made
A. The turbine. B. The reservoir. C. The pipeline. D. The tower.
13. What prevents free steam from being widely developed according to paragraph 3
A. Hard surface and possible earthquakes.
B. Changeable climate and unqualified equipment.
C. Limited underground water and thin layers of rock.
D. Unsuitable geological conditions and potential dangers.
14. Why is the buried geothermal plant in Hawaii mentioned
A. To demonstrate the great effort that engineers made.
B. To show the power that the repaired plant can generate.
C. To illustrate the danger caused by drilling near magma.
D. To praise the engineers who repaired the generate plant.
15. What is the author's attitude towards geothermal energy
A. Unconcerned. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Andy’s finger traced the lines on a blank United States map, each state represented by a number. He whispered to himself, “New Jersey is eating Pennsylvania, and Ohio is a chicken nugget.” Beside him lay another paper with numbers 1—50 written down. Despite 20 minutes of intense concentration, all Andy had to show for his efforts were those numbers.
“OK, and Utah is the washing machine. No, Montana is the washing machine. Or North Dakota Gah! They’re all washing machines!” Andy was caught in his confusion.
This wasn’t the first time his memory had failed him during a test. No matter how hard he studied, nothing seemed to stay in his brain for long. He had tried memory tricks, even spending nights examining an old paper map in his bedroom. It had given him a glimmer of hope, but now that hope felt distant.
The time was up, and Mr. Crane began collecting the answer sheets. Andy quickly stuffed his blank test into the pile, wanting to forget about it. Unfortunately, his brain seemed to remember only the things it should forget. During lunch, Andy stared at a map, frustrated that he had handed in a blank sheet of paper.
Andy’s friend Aaron shrugged “You only need a 70 to pass.”
“Yeah, well it’s hard to get a 70 when you hand in a blank sheet of paper,” Andy mumbled, frowning.
Aaron popped a grape into his mouth. “Well Mr. Crane will let you retake (补考) it tomorrow.”
Andy was the only one standing at Mr. Crane’s desk after school. He apologized quickly, head drooping. But instead of scolding him, Mr. Crane patted his shoulder, saying, “I think you are trying, but you might learn better by being active. Just practice more!”
Andy looked into Mr. Crane’s eyes, finding comfort in the teacher’s understanding gaze. Mr. Crane invited Andy to help him organize a pile of magnets (磁铁), each with the name of a state on it. On the wall hung a large magnetic map — part of a review game the class had been playing.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As Andy arranged the magnets, an idea suddenly came into his mind.

When doing homework, Andy was told he scored an 88 on the retake.
