一、阅读理解
Kenya has been at the forefront of the global war on plastic since 2017, when officials outlawed plastic bags. In 2020, the government raised the demand with a ban on single-use plastics. Unfortunately, tons of industrial and consumer plastic waste continue to get poured into landfills daily. However, if 29-year-old Nzambi Matee has her way, the unsightly plastic garbage mountain will soon be transformed into colorful bricks.
The materials engineer’s search for an effective solution to controlling plastic pollution began in 2017, when she set up a small lab in her backyard. It took her nine months to produce the first brick and even longer to convince a partner to help build the machinery to make them.
She says, “I wanted to use my education in applied physics and materials engineering to do something about plastic waste pollution. But I was very clear the solution had to be practical, sustainable and affordable. The best way to do this was by channeling the waste into the construction space and finding the most efficient and affordable material to build homes.”
Her company, Gjenge Makers, now hires 112 people and produces over 1,500 bricks a day, which are made using a mix of plastic products that can’t be reprocessed or recycled. The collected plastic is obtained directly from factories or picked by hired locals from landfills and mixed with sand, heated at very high temperatures, and compressed(压缩)into bricks that vary in color and thickness. The resulting product is stronger, lighter, and about 30 percent cheaper than traditional concrete(混凝土) bricks. Most importantly, it helps repurpose the lowest quality of plastic.
Matee, recognized as one of the Young Champions of the Earth 2020—the United Nations’ highest environmental honor—is far from done. Her dream is to reducerubbish by increasing production and expanding her offerings. She says, “The more we recycle plastic, the more we produce affordable housing…the more we create more employment for the youth.”

A.Temporary. B.Effective. C.Fruitless. D.Unreliable.
2、Which of the following do we know about Matee
A.She turns knowledge into actual products.
B.Her company’s funded by the government.
C.She produces brick-making machinery herself.
D.Her bricks are made from recyclable plastic waste.
3、What’s the greatest strength of Matee’s resulting product
A.Its low cost. B.Its wide range of uses.
C.Its economic benefit. D.Its environmental value.
4、What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A.Matee’s achievement. B.Matee’s greater ambition.
C.Multiple challenges Matee faces. D.Innovative solutions to plastic waste.

6、答案:1-5.ADCCA; 6-10.ABABA; 11-15.DBCAD

7、答案:conclusion
解析:考查词性转换.句意:现有的证据可以清楚地得出结论:公众对犯罪活动的认知确实受到媒体的影响. conclusion为名词,作leads to的宾语.
8、答案:where
解析:考查引导非限制性定语从句的关系副词。设空处无提示词,且前面有逗号,逗号前面是一个完整的句子,此处指的是“我喜欢去游乐园,在那里可以享受很多活动”,所以设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the amusement park,将先行词带人从句后为“there are many activities to enjoy in the amusement park”,关系词在从句中作地点状语,故填where。
9、答案:taken
解析:考查状语从句的省略形式。句意:当按照说明来服用时,这个药物没有副作用。结合语境可知,When 引导的是时间状语从句,且从句的主语与主句的主语一致,take 与其逻辑主语the drug 之间是被动关系(被动语态由“be+过去分词”构成),所以此处应是状语从句的省略形式,省略了the drug和is,其完整形式为“When the drug is taken according to the directions”。故填taken。
10、答案:which
解析:考查非限制性定语从句的关系代词。设空处无提示词且前面有逗号,逗号前面是一个完整的句子, _____ was named officially by the United Nations on November 27th,2019中缺少主语,故推测设空处引导的是非限制性定语从句,结合语境可知,被联合国在2019年11月27日正式命名的是International Tea Day,所以该非限制性定语从句的先行词即为International Tea Day,故此处用引导词 which。
11、答案:whom
解析:考查“none of+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句。设空处无提示词,逗号前面是一个完整的句子,且设空处前面是none of,故推测“none of+设空处”引导的是非限制性定语从句,此处指“她带着她的三个朋友去参加聚会,这三个朋友我之前一个也没见过”,所以该非限制性定语从句的先行词是her three friends,指人,设空处在从句中作of 的宾语。故填whom。
12、答案:academic
解析:考查形容词。设空处修饰其后的名词year,所以此处应用形容词,故填academic。the new academic year意为“新学年”。
13、答案:
Born in a medical family, in Oct. 1936, Zhong Nanshan comes from Xiamen, Fujian Province. When he was young he had a strong passion for medicine.
Zhong Nanshan, who graduated from Peking University Medical School in 1960, is one of the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. In 2003, he was a hero in fighting against SARS, managing the SARS outbreak. In 2020, he made an outstanding contribution when fighting against COVID-19.
