山西省高一下学期期末英语试卷(含有答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末英语试卷(含有答案解析)(满分:150分;考试时间:120分钟)学校:___________班级:___________姓名:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解The world is a splendid place, full of hidden and overt beauty in every corner. Here are some of the most beautiful places around the world.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, UgandaBwindi Impenetrable Forest is one of the last harbors of the mountain gorilla (大猩猩). Several hundred call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home, with the chance for visitors hike and meet habituated groups. Its biodiversity extends far beyond its most famous inhabitants. However -almost 350 bird species and around 220 butterfly species can be found within its 331-square-kilometer expanse.Samburu, KenyaThanks to its relative inaccessibility in the heart of Kenya, Samburu is a haven (避难所) for some of Africa’s most charming wildlife. The grassland and acacia-dotted landscapes of its national reserve are home to the endangered giraffe and zebra, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, ChinaChina’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan Province is known for its towering sandstone pillars (柱子). Best explored on foot, its back trails make for an easy way to escape the crowds and find the best views. As the mists fall, it’s easy to sea why this area has long been an inspiration for traditional Chinese paintings.The MaldivesThe sand of its 1,200 islands is as white as it gets, and the water is a deep blue that puts all other seas in the shade. The Indian Ocean nation of the Maldives has developed into the world’s premier tropical hot spot for a reason. Best of all, there are plenty of beaches to go around, with over 100 private resorts and welcoming, affordable guesthouses around the Male and Ari atolls.1.What makes Samburu a haven for wildlife?A.Its landscape. B.Its location.C.Its climate. D.Its food.2.What do Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and Zhangjiajie National Forest Park have in common?A.They are home to gorillas.B.They have more than 350 bird species.C.They are on the World Heritage Site List.D.They are inspirations for traditional paintings.3.Which of the following suits beach-lovers?A.Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. B.Samburu.C.Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. D.The Maldives.Last weekend, my husband and I drove a dog to her new home. Typically, when we have a new dog in the backseat, it’s a young dog. But this passenger was a much different story. Magdalen is a 13-year old dog. Her owner gave her up temporarily when he was sick, but when he fully recovered several months later, he said he didn’t want her back. He had her since she was young but now had no place for her.The family who had given her a temporary home had children and other dogs and was unable to give her a forever home. When Speak St, Louis, the rescue team I work with, was contacted about the dog, they offered to take her in. She went to a vet (兽医) for a basic health check. But the vet didn’t have great news. Her mouth was swollen (肿胀的) with all sorts of problems. Two teeth fell out during cleaning and eleven more had to be pulled out.Luckily, a good friend of mine, a dog trainer with a soft heart for seniors, had agreed to adopt Magdalen. On the trip to the trainer’s home, the sweet senior looked so relaxed in our backseat. I felt a great sense of relief and pleasure.Her owner needed some temporary help when he was sick. But I can’t imagine why he wouldn’t have wanted her back. I think of my own dog and dogs we lost to old age in the past. We’re family and we stay that way forever. She’d be able to live a good life. I hoped, in her new home!4.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The former owners of the dog.B.Where the dog was treated.C.What the dog needed most.D.The problems the dog met.5.What is the author’s job?A.Training old dogs.B.Treating sick dogs.C.Looking for homes for dogs.D.Looking for lost dogs’ owners.6.How did the author feel on her way to her friend’s home?A.Relieved and happy. B.Nervous and grateful.C.Surprised and curious. D.Hopeful and proud.7.What does the author think of Magdalen’s owner giving her up?A.She didn’t understand his behaviour.B.She believed it was painful for him.C.She was certain he would regret.D.She thought he made a wise decision.Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this, tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can - then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.8.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A.Writing essays in strict order.B.Building up physical strength.C.Leaving out the toughest ideas.D.Dealing with the hardest task first.9.On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue? A.Before starting a difficult task.B.When all the solutions fail.C.If the job is rather boring.D.After finding a way out.10.According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________ . A.ignore mental problemsB.get some nice sleepC.gain complete reliefD.find the right solution11.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Success Is Built upon FailureB.How to Handle Performance FatigueC.Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD.Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health ProblemsKite surfing is a sport that takes place on the surface of the water, on top of boards that are similar in design to wakeboards (尾波滑水板), with the surfer pulled by a kite. The popularity of kite surfing has grown, although it is rather difficult to master. Kite surfing uses the same equipment as kite boarding, but is generally given more to riding on top of waves, rather than on smaller lakes or other calm bodies of water.Early experiments in kite transportation took place through the 19th century, and at the dawn of the 20th century Samuel Cody crossed the English Channel using kites and a small boat. Kite surfing itself, however, wasn’t really born until the late 1970s. Beginning in that decade, more people became involved in using kites for personal transport and sport. Kite technology itself advanced enormously during the 1970s, with kites becoming much more controllable.The early kite surfing was rather accidental, but innovators continued to develop the technology to make it easier to control and safer. By the late 1990s, kite surfing was becoming popular off the coast of Maui, France and throughout the world. In 1997, a special kite system was built specifically for kite surfing, which helped kite surfing into the mainstream.Because of the high speeds and the dangers, it is generally recommended that would-be kite surfers take at least a few basic classes to learn the fundamentals.The main attraction of kite surfing is the potential for amazing tricks. The kite allows the surfer to experience enormous jumps, flying through the air for large distances before hitting the water in a controlled fashion. Like skateboarding, kite surfing makes use of a number of board grabs, with complex tricks possible due to the long period of time the surfer can remain in the air.12.What does the author mainly intend to tell us in Paragraph 1?A.What is kite surfing. B.Where to go kite surfing.C.How to enjoy kite surfing. D.Why people like kite surfing.13.In the 19th century, people intended to use kite for ________.A.sport B.experimentC.entertainment D.transportation14.What can we know from the third paragraph?A.Kite surfing often leads to accidents.B.Maui is home to kite surfing.C.Kite control is the key to kite surfing.D.Kite surfing came into being in the 1990s.15.What is most charming for people surfing?A.Its potential for tricks. B.Its long time in the air.C.Its speed across the water. D.Its big distance over the water.二、七选五Here’s How To Have A Calmer Sunday NightFor most people, the end of the weekend isn’t a welcome time. 16 . If you’re one of the many people who feel a sense of horror come Sunday, there are things you can do to make your evening a little better and a little calmer.

You might want to establish a good bedtime and engage in an activity you enjoy, such as reading a book, watching your favorite show or doing gentle yoga. So, ending the weekend in an anger certainly won’t help you feelgood about the upcoming week, but a calm Sunday night schedulewill.Prepare for Monday morningPutting things in place to start your Monday on the right foot is a good wayto ease some of your Sunday scaries, according to Francis Sopper, the CEO of productivity coaching organization GTD Focus. 18 .Plan fun things for the weekTo help reduce your sense of despair, Janssen, a productivity consultant at Ashley Janssen Consulting, suggested making plans to look forward to during the week, like dinner with a friend or a movie night with your partner.

Or order your favorite breakfast to eat before you start work.Many people don’t have the luxury of tuning out of work for the entire weekend.If this is you, Sopper said to plan out your work intentionally; don’t just takeon tasks that have no possibility of getting done over the weekend. 20 . This way, “at least if you worked, you have a sense of completeness,” Sopper added.A.Fill your Sunday with activitiesB.Create a relaxing Sunday night routineC.It marks the return to the busy workweekD.Instead, focus on the one-and-done thingsE.Maybe set up a coffee meeting with a co-workerF.This could mean packing your work bag ahead of timeG.Your to-do lists show how long a task will take to complete三、完形填空When my kids were small, I started a tradition in our house of giving eight giftseven $1 each (at the Dollar Store).

山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)
山西省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(带答案解析)(满分:150分;考试时间:120分钟)学校:___________班级:___________姓名:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解The village of Hallstatt in Austria is a collection of old buildings. In summer, the mountains are green and the village is lovely. In winter, it’s like something out of a snow-covered fairy tale. Now it is being overrun with tourists, partly because it looks like the village from the movie Frozen. The town’s mayor is actually hoping that many tourists will stay away.Hallstatt is small. Fewer than 800 people live there. But the number of visitors who arrive each day is huge — up to 10,000 visitors a day. Hallstatt’s popularity first began when it became a World Heritage Site in 1997. But the number of visitors increased quickly after the release of Disney’s movie Frozen in 2013. Though much of Frozen was based on life in Norway, Hallstatt looks a lot like Arendelle, the main village in the movie. Some people believe that Arendelle was based on Hallstatt.Much of the tourism is driven by social media. Many of the visitors seem mainly interested in taking photos with the village in the background. Some local people feel stressed about it. With 10,000 visitors a day, that’s over 12 tourists for every person in Hallstatt. One man said his mother had woken up one day to find tourists in her bedroom.The mayor would prefer to have fewer tourists. He thinks the town would be just fine with about one third fewer visitors each year. Starting from this year, Hallstatt will begin a program to reduce the number of buses bringing visitors to the village.Before the tourism boomed, local people would leave Hallstatt to find work. Now many people depend upon the tourists for their living. Hotel rooms can cost between $350 and $450. And it costs over one dollar to use the public bathroom in Hallstatt. With 10,000 visitors a day, even toilets can be good business.1.What do we know about the village of Hallstatt in Austria?A.It has appeared in many famous movies.B.It is beautiful but crowded with tourists.C.It has a small population for its bad weather.D.It is an old village with poor customer service.2.What did the man mentioned in Paragraph 3 want to express?A.Visitors were welcome to stay at local homes.B.Local life was badly influenced by visitors.C.Social media brought visitors to his village.D.The locals had a close relationship with visitors.3.Which of the following best explains the word “boom” in the last Paragraph? A.Sigh. B.Drop. C.Decline. D.Rocket.4.What can we conclude from the text?A.Hallstatt is having fewer visitors for the high cost.B.Local people are satisfied with their life in Hallstatt.C.Tourism brings both trouble and benefits to local people.D.Local people have difficulty improving the housing service.Marie Lantelme! The name struck me from somewhere in the back of my mind. Miss Lantelme, as I called her in my youth, worked as a librarian at the East Meadow Public Library when I was a pre-teen girl.On one occasion, in search of a book to read, I walked slowly over to the desk taken up by a librarian-Miss Lantelme. Serious, polite, and speaking with the voice of a professional(专业的) librarian, she asked what kind of book I liked to read.I thought about it for a few seconds and replied, “Mysteries(悬疑小说).” When I first learned to read, my grandfather gave me a book called The Smugglers of Sandy Bay. It was written by Ruth Holberg and still takes a place in my book collection.I sometimes hold it in my hand to reconnect with its mystical power.Miss Lantelme told me to follow her, and she led me into the mystery part and pointed me in the direction of books written by Agatha Christie. Miss Lantelme handed me a book called The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. I will not tell the ending to anyone who has never read that book, but I loved the surprise that I never saw coming. Everyweek I dug deep into the works of that uncommon writer whose stories still attract me now.On one occasion, Miss Lantelme handed me a book written by John le Carre. The title of the book is The Spy Who Came in from the Cold. For years, I waited for each new book by the recognized master of spy thrillers.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported the US throws away more than 11 million tons of clothing every year. That is why some small businesses spotting the problem are beginning to recycle in ways they haven’t before.Create Good Company is a clothing company that tries to produce sustainable clothing and repurpose older clothing into updated fashionable items. Maggie Hendricks, the owner of Create Good Company, said, “If you can improve what you find, why wouldn’t you do that instead of buying new things? It’s a big issue not to create new waste. I would say we are 90% recycled materials.”According to the EPA, the average consumer(消费者)throws away 81.5 pounds of clothes every year. “Anywhere between 10%-17% of the waste that’s going into landfills(废弃物填埋场)is made up of things like textiles and clothing,” said Danny Katz with the CoPIRG Foundation. “A lot of the clothing that we’re producing doesn’t even get worn, so it’s going right to the landfill or even being burned and contributing to pollution that way. It’s really worrying.”This is why businesses like Create Good Company exist —to use outdated clothing and turn it into dresses or jackets. “There’s just so much waste and so many big companies that might not think about it,” Hendricks said. “Just standing with other like-minded people who are interested in sustainability is important.”Another important element Hendricks has focused on is creating these items and selling them at an affordable price. “Sustainability sometimes is green washed in companies and they make things more expensive,” Hendricks said. “That’s not how we become a sustainable world. I think making products affordable is important to me. I want to buy things that are better for the environment without throwing my pocketbook in the fire.”11.What makes Danny Katz worried?A.The use of old clothing. B.The cost of textile pollution. C.The effect of clothing waste. D.The future of the textile industry.12.What does Hendricks care more about when it comes to a sustainable product? A.Its price. B.Its sales.C.Its producer. D.Its quality.13.What is the best title for the text?A.The EPA’s measures to reduce textile waste.B.Consumers being aware of the seriousness of textile waste.C.Textile businesses’ social responsibility and their waste.D.Small businesses working to prevent textile waste.二、七选五MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear? 14 . It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" every day. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 15 .If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 16 .Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak doeswhat it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 17 . Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.18 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But otherpeople enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm. One way or another, Muzak affects everyone. Some farmers even say their cows give more milk when they hear Muzak!A.Some people don't like Muzak.B.The music gives them extra energy.C.Music is playing in the background.D.Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E.Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F.They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G.Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.三、完形填空In the dead of last winter during the pandemic, the Berman family chose to fosterin all moved into their new home at the Canine Humane Network, a nonprofit rescuefrom their 31 on how they’re doing.”To date, the Bermans have 32 12 dogs from the Highland organizationin the past year.

第二卷:非选择题第一卷:选择题:第一部分:阅读理解:(每小题2分,满分30分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)AIf cars had wings(翅膀), they could fly and that just might happen, beginning in 2011. The company Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, says it plans to deliver its car-plane, the Transition, so customers by the end of 2011.“It's the next‘wow’vehicle,”said Terrafugia vice president Richard Gersh.“Anybody can buy a Ferrari, but as we say, Ferraris don't fl y.”The car-plane has wings that unfold for flying-a process the company says takes one minute -and fold back up for driving. A runway is still required to take off and land.The Transition is being marketed more as a plane that drives than a car that flies, although it is both. The company has been working with FAA to meet aircraft regulations, and with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to meet vehicle safety regulations.The company is aiming to sell the Transition to private pilots as a more convenient and cheaper way to fly. They say it saves you the trouble from trying to find another mode of transportation to get to and from airports: You drive the car to the airport and then you're good to go. When you land, you fold up the wings and hit the road. There are no expensive parking fees because you don't have to store it at an airport-you park it in the garage at home.The car-plane is designed to fly primarily under 10,000 feet. It has a maximum takeoff weight of 1,430 pounds, including fuel and passengers. Terrafugia says the Transition reduces the potential for an accident by allowing pilots to drive under the bad weather instead of flying into marginal (临界的) conditions.The Transition's price tag:$ 194,000. But there may be additional charges for options like a radio, a transponder or a GPS. Another option is a full-plane parachute.“If you get into a very awful situation,it is the necessary safety option,”Gersh said.So far, the company has more than 70 orders with deposits.“We're workin g very closely with them, but there are still some remaining steps,”Brown said.1.We can learn from the first two paragraphs that ________.A.car-planes will be popular in 2011B.people might drive a car-plane in 2011C.both the Transition and Ferrari can take off and landD.Richard Gersh is the vice president of Massachusetts2.The underlined word“it”in the last but one paragraph refers to ________.A.the radio B.the transponderC.the GPS D.the full-plane parachute3.What's the best title for the passage?A.Cars with wings may be just around the cornerB.Which to choose:a Ferrari or a car-plane?C.A more convenient and cheaper way to flyD.Cars with wings can fly as fast as planesBWelcome to Pocono WhitewaterThere's something fun here at Pocono Whitewater for every level of adventurer!

Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century BC.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late 16th century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in England.By the 18th century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have becomemuch lighter in weight. It wasn't until the twentieth century that women's umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.8.According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented in ancient ________.A. ChinaB. EgyptC. GreeceD. Rome9.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the umbrella?A. No one exactly knows who the inventor of the umbrella was.B. The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.C. The umbrella changed much in style in the 18th century.D. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.10.A strange feature of the umbrellA s use is that it was used as ________.A. protection against rainB. a shade against the sunC. a symbol of honor and powerD. women's decoration (装饰)第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)__11__ If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and your ability to focus will increase.

AWalking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked!Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopp ed attacking me. Had I been hurt I wouldn’t have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!Having stopped laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn’t sure what to do. After all, it’s just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. Should I have been careless enough to step on her? His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate’s safety seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.Since then, I’ve used that butterfly’s courage as an inspiration and to remind myself that good things are worth fighting for.21.The writer changed his direction while walking down a path because he wanted_______.A. to get close to a butterflyB. to escape a sudden attackC. to look over the bad situationD. to avoid getting his shoes dirty22.From the passage we can learn that the attacker _________.A. struck the author four or five times and made him badly hurtB. paused until the author took a step backwardsC. thought it was the author who caused the death of his mateD. attacked the author for his mate’s safety and to accompany her for the last moments of life 23.From this experience the man learned________.A. butterflies are brave insectsB. the small can defeat the largeC. how to deal with challenges in his lifeD. people should show sympathy to the weak24.Which of the following words can best describe the butterfly?A. caringB. ambitiousC. courageousD. aggressiveBFor kids and many adults, a San Diego vacation means theme parks and other attractions.

Canadian culture.B. the life in Canada.C. Study in Canada — a Unique Experience.D. Benefits of Studying Abroad.DIt’s never a real problem for us when the we ather gets cold. We can put on more clothes, stay next to a fireplace, turn on the air conditioner or simply travel to a warmer city to spend the winter ---- people have many different ways of dealing with the cold.But things are not as easy for plant s. Unlike humans, plants can’t move to escape the cold or generate heat (发热) to keep themselves warm. So how do they manage to survive the freezing winter?It turns out that plants have their own strategies (策略) too, said a study published on Dec. 22 in the journal Nature.According to researcher Amy Zanne of George Washington University, US, the cold is a big challenge for plants. Their living tissues (活组织) can be damaged when they freeze. “It’s like a plant’s equivalent to frostbite (相当于冻疮),” Zann e told Science Daily. Also, the process of freezing and thawing (解冻) can cause air bubbles (气泡) to form in the plant’s water transport system. “If enough of these air bubbles come together as water thaws they can block the flow of water from the roots to t he leaves and kill the plant,” she explained.To live through cold weather, plants have developed three traits (特性), according to the study. Some plants, such as oak trees (橡树), avoid freezing damage by dropping their leaves before the winter chill sets in ---- effectively shutting off the flow of water between roots and leaves ---- and growing new leaves and water transport cells when the warm spring returns.Other plants, pine trees (松树) for example, protect themselves by narrowing their water transport cells, which makes it easier for cells to travel among air bubbles.The third strategy is also the most extreme ---- some plants die on the ground in winter and start growing as new plants from seeds when conditions get warmer.However, the study also found that these smart strategies were developed very slowly ---- over millions of years of evolution (进化). This leads scientists to worry that plants may not be able to deal with human-caused climate change, which has only started occurring over the past few decades.Scientists are hoping that this study can help people find possible ways to save plants from the threat of climate change.33. What is the article mainly about?A. Why plants are not afraid of the winter chill.B. The ways that plants survive cold weather.C. Changes in plants’ water transport system in winter.D. How plants evolve to keep up with climate change.34. According to the article, if a plant freezes in the winter, ________.A. it produces more living tissues to stay aliveB. its leaves quickly fall out and its roots begin to dieC. lots of air bubbles form in its water transport systemD. its water transport system could be blocked in the spring35. What are scientists worried about when it comes to plants according to the article?A. Plants may not be able to adapt to the increasingly cold climate.B. Human activities might have a great impact on the pace of plants’ evolution.C. Plants may not be able to evolve fast enough to adapt to human-caused climate change.D. The strategies plants develop are not good enough to protect them against cold.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
