第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A
The Great Wall, China
Stretching over 21,000 kilometers，the Great Wall was built to prevent invasions and has a history of more than 2，000 years. UNESCO in February 2019 calls it an absolute masterpiece，not only because of the ambitious character of the undertaking but also the perfection of its construction."
But perfection isn’t protection。

51.2 percent of the Great Wall had either already disappeared or is at a significant risk of disappearing. Besides for wind and rain erosion，the main reasons for the destruction of the Great Wall are human factors such as tourism，construction，human contact and so on.
Pamukkale，Turkey
Pamukkale, which means “cotton castle” in Turkish，is famous for its shining white calcite terraces (方解石阶地)with warm and mineral—rich waters overrun。

Before being listed as a World Heritage Site in 1988，Pamukkale had been severely damaged by human activities。

People used hot spring water
to fill swimming pools, some visitors stood on the rocks and some even bathed in the hot springs with soap and shampoo。

To protect the terraces, the Turkish government has decided to pull down the hotels and require all tourists to visit this site barefoot。

Great Barrier Reef，Australia
Home to 400 types of coral and 1，500 species of fish, the Great Barrier Reef draws visitors to Australia from all over the world。

However，the Great Barrier Reef is expected to suffer from increasingly frequent bleaching events, cases in which corals turn white and may die，according to a UNESCO report. The heat waves caused by global warming have killed half of the coral here in the two years，according to a CNN report. Pollution from industry developments and harmful fishing practices are also big concerns.
The Dead Sea，Jordan
At 423 meters below sea level，the Dead Sea is 10 times saltier than the ocean，meaning that the water is so dense，even tourists who can9t swim will be able to float.
But the seaside resorts built in the 1980s now sit kilometers away from the water’s edge, which has lost half of its surface area in the past 40 years. The damage is irreversible due to the nature of the mineral industry and the type of agricultural use that has drained the water.
21。

Which are you required to visit without shoes?
A。

The Great Wall, China.
B。

Pamukkale, Turkey.
C. Great Barrier Reef，Australia.
D. The Dead Sea, Jordan。

22。

Which of the following statements is true？
A。

Main reasons for the destruction of the Great Wall come from wind and rain erosion。

B。

Pamukkale was damaged by human activities after 1988。

C. Pollution and the heat waves caused by global warming kill much coral in the Great Barrier Reef。

D. Half of the Dead Sea surface area has disappeared in the past two decades.
23. What do the above spots have in common？
A。

They are all famous endangered natural spots。

B. They're damaged only from human activities.
C. They all draw the attention of the governments。

D。

They’re all seriously damaged。

【答案】21. B 22。

C 23. D
【解析】
本文是一篇应用文，介绍了世界上的四大景观——中国长城、土耳其棉花堡、澳大利亚大堡礁和约旦死海，它们都受到了严重的破坏。

【21题详解】
细节理解题。

根据Pamukkale,Turkey中的“To protect the terraces，the Turkish government has decided to pull down the hotels and require all
tourists to visit this site barefoot."可知,为了保护方解石阶地，土耳其政府决定所有游客必须赤脚参观棉花堡，故B项正确。

【22题详解】
细节理解题。

根据Great Barrier Reef，Australia中的“The heat waves caused by global warming have killed half of the coral here in the two years, according to a CNN report。

Pollution from industry developments and harmful fishing practices are also big concerns.”可知，全球变暖引发的热浪杀死了大堡礁里一半的珊瑚，来自工业和捕鱼业的污染也是极大的担忧,故C项正确。

【23题详解】
细节理解题。

根据The Great Wall，China中的“51.2 percent of the Great Wall had either already disappeared or is at a significant risk of disappearing."，Pamukkale，Turkey中的“Pamukkale had been severely damaged by human activities。

”，Great Barrier Reef, Australia中的“The heat waves caused by global warming have killed half of the coral here in the two years，according to a CNN report。

Pollution from industry developments and harmful fishing practices are also big concerns。

”及The Dead Sea, Jordan中的“The damage is irreversible due to the nature of the mineral industry and the type of agricultural use that has drained the water。

故D项正确。

B
Vijay Gupta is known to classical music lovers across the United States. He serves as first violinist for the Los Angeles Philharmonic。

In that job, he often plays to large crowds，including many very rich people。

When he is not performing，he organizes concerts for homeless people。

’They have reminded me why I became a musician, he said。

Last week，Gupta was recognized for being a founder and the artistic director of Street Symphony。

The group has performed at homeless shelters，jails and halfway houses for about eight years。

Gupta is among the 25 winners of the 2018 MacArthur Fellowship, commonly known as the “genius grant.” Each winner will receive ＄625,000 over five years to use as they wish。

The money is coming from a private group, the John D. and Katherine T. MacArthur Foundation. It awards grants (补助金)to people whose work it considers exceptional and that “inspires hope in us all.” Gupta said he got the idea for Street Symphony while teaching Nathaniel Ayers，a trained musician whose mental illness led to homelessness.
The 31—year-old grant winner said he does not know yet how he will spend the money. He has been a performer since age seven and the award will give him "space to breathe，plan and look ahead。

”
Another winner is Rebecca Sandefur an associate professor of sociology and law in the University of Illinois。

The Associated Press says her research actively supports new ways to involve poor communities in the U.S. justice system.
47-year—old Sandefur created the first national mapping of civil legal aid providers。

It shows which states had the financial resources to provide such aid and which did not。

She also found that the cost of legal services is only one of the things preventing poor people from getting lawyers. Among the others are fears about unfairness in the legal system。

Sandefur noted that a lot of attention has been paid to problems with the criminal justice system, but more attention must be paid to the civil side of the law, which also affects millions of people.
24. Why did Gupta win the award？
A. For his achievements in classical music.
B。

For performing for large crowds.
C。

For organizing a group playing for the homeless。

D. For the friendship with Nathaniel Ayers。

25。

What do we know about Mac Arthur Fellowship？
A. It is founded by the government。

B. It offers ＄625,000 to 25 winners in 2018.
C. It allows the winners to use the money freely.
D。

It awards people who make great contributions to society
26. What was the extraordinary thing that Sandefiir did?
A. She made it easier to get legal help for the poor。

B. She made the legal system fairer.
C。

She paid more attention to the criminal justice system.
D。

She offered legal aids to the poor freely。

27. Which can be the best title for the passage?

【27题详解】
主旨大意题.通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了美国两位麦克阿瑟奖学金的获奖者Gupta和Sandefiir分别通过为流浪者演奏音乐和为穷人争取法律援助而激励穷人的故事，故A项正确。

【点睛】本篇第4题主旨大意题难度较大,因为文章分为两个部分，没有整体的主题句，这就是需要我们抓住每一部分的主题句进行总结，通读全文特别是根据第二段中的“Gupta is among the 25 winners of the 2018 MacArthur Fellowship, commonly known as the “genius grant。

””及倒数第二段中的“Another winner is Rebecca Sandefur，an associate professor of sociology and law in the University of Illinois。

C
Solar power is helping bring about a future of cleaner energy，but there are limits to where rigid solar panels (刚性太阳能电池板)can go. A new kind of solar cell made with a mineral called perovskite （钙钛矿）can go almost anywhere，says physicist Olga Malinkiewicz. We can use perovskite cells on the surfaces of the building，on the roofs of the
buildings, on the roofs of the cars and on the electronic devices。

We can use it on the sails. We can use it in the balls, tents and unlimited applications. Malinkiewicz says perovskite has become a favorite among solar panel researchers。

Because it can be printed, everyone can use it on every surface。

Malinkiewicz developed a way to print perovskite panels like an inkjet printer。

She co-founded a company to produce them, called Soleil Technologies，after the Baltic sun goddess。

Construction company Skanska is testing the panels at their Warsaw headquarters。

Adam Targowski is sustainable (可持续的)development manager for Skanska. They work perfectly, even when they are not well exposed to sunlight。

So we can use them in all surfaces of the building。

Soleil calculates that about one square meter of panel can supply a day’s worth of power for one worker’s computer and lights. And they keep getting better as research c ontinues, says the company’s scientific director Konrad Wojciechowski. For other technologies，it took decades to really enter markets. Perovskite has been around only for few years in scientific research，so there is still a lot to be done, but potential is basically pretty much unlimited，I think. There are still durability and other problems to work out, but several companies expect to have perovskite panels on the market this year.
28. What do we know about perovskite solar cell from the first paragraph?
A. It’s delicate.
B. It's complex。

C。

It's flexible。

D。

It's expensive。

29。

What does the underlined word “they" in the second paragraph refer to？
A。

Skanska and Adam Targowski。

B. Malinkiewicz and Skanska.
C。

Soleil Technologies。

D。

Perovskite panels.
30. What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A。

It needs years to put perovskite panels into markets.
B. Scientists think perovskite panels are ready for markets。

C。

Perovskite has been studied for decades.
D。

Perovskite panels will soon be seen in the market.
31。

What is the main purpose of the passage？
A。

To explain how to use perovskite panels.
B。

To introduce perovskite panels。

C. To advertise a new solar power cell.
D。

To propose scientists to further study perovskiet cells。

【答案】28。

C 29. D 30。

D 31。

B

本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一种新型太阳能电池——钙钛矿电池板的优点和前景.
【28题详解】
细节理解题.根据第一段中的“A new kind of solar cell made with a mineral called perovskite can go almost anywhere”可知,钙钛矿太阳能电池没有安装位置的限制，由此可知它具有灵活性,故C项正确。

【29题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据第二段第一句“Malinkiewicz developed a way to print perovskite panels like an inkjet printer.”可知，Malinkiewicz发明了一种打印钙钛矿电池板的方法,就像喷墨打印机一样，这类钙钛矿电池板特别好用，不管是否完全暴置于日光下都很好用，由此可知they 指代的就是前面提到的钙钛矿电池板，故D项正确。

【30题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的“but several companies expect to have perovskite panels on the market this year.”可知，一些公司已经打算今年在市场上出售钙钛矿电池板了，由此可知,很快就能在市场上看到钙钛矿电池板,故D项正确.
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。

通读全文，特别是根据第一段中的“A new kind of solar cell made with a mineral called perovskite （钙钛矿）can go almost anywhere”可知，本文主要介绍了一种新型太阳能电池——钙钛矿电池板的优点和前景，由此可知本文的目的就是介绍钙钛矿电池板,故B项正确。

【点睛】科普说明文的主旨大意题难度较大，抓住具有转折关系的句子是关键，因为转折连词往往会引出文章主题，例如本篇第4题,文章第一句说太阳能助力实现能源更加清洁的未来，但是刚性太阳
能电池板的安装位置是有限制的，这个转折句引出文章主题——有一种新型的柔性电池板,它是由钙钛矿构成的,它没有安装的限制,由此可知本文的目的就是介绍钙钛矿电池板。

D
We’ve all been there：those times you need to argue your point of view to someone who you know disagrees with you。

You immediately go to your keyboard and start to type out that 280—character tweet, the Facebook reply，or a paragraphs—long email. Surely the reason, logic，and strong power of your written words will convince whoever it is who disagrees with you to see your point of view. But new research suggests a different idea.
That research was conducted by Juliana Schroeder，assistant professor of University of California, Berkeley, and her colleagues. In Schroeder’s study of almost 300 people，participants were asked to watch, listen, and read arguments about subjects they agreed or disagreed with. They were asked to judge the character of the communicator and the quality of the argument。

Schroeder’s team found that the participants who watched o r listened to the communicator were less dismissive (抵触的)of their claims than when they read that communicator's same argument。

The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician. One of us read a speech that was printed in a newspaper from a politician with whom he strongly disagreed。

The next week, he heard the exact
same speech playing on a radio station. He was shocked by how different his reaction was toward the politician when he read the speech compared to when he heard it. When he read the statement, the politician seemed idiotic, but when he heard it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable。

So in the workplace, speaking to someone in person often involves nothing more than walking a few doors down to their office. And that's exactly what you should do if you need to convince that boss or colleague of why your blueprint for the company or project is the right one。

Only as a last way should you try to communicate with someone who you disagree with over social media。

Twit ter’s limited text allowance and social media users’ short attention make arguing your point an uphill battle.
32. What’s the result of the research？
A. Written words are more logical and reasonable。

B。

People prefer to communicate with key board。

C。

When reading an argument, the participants were less dismissive than hearing it.
D. Oral，not written，communication works better.
33。

Why is the politician mentioned in paragraph3？
A. To introduce the topic for discussion.
B. To summarize the previous paragraphs.
C。

To explain why Schroeder conducted the research.
D. To introduce the politician’s speech.
34。

What does the underlined word “idiotic’’in paragraph 3 mean？A。

Wise. B. Practical. C。

Silly. D. Special。

35. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs？
A。

To persuade your boss，you need to walk to his office and leave a message.
B. It's difficult to fully explain your points due to social media’s limitation.
C. Arguing over social media is more convenient than speaking in person。

D。

Communicating with others over social media is encouraged。

细节理解题。

根据第二段中的“Schroeder’s team found that the participants who watched or listened to the communicator were less dismissive of their claims than when they read that communicator’s same argument。

”可知，研究小组发现，相比观看或聆听交流者的参与者来说，阅读文字的参与者更容易有抵触情绪，也就是说口头沟通比书面沟通更好，故D项正确。

推理判断题。

根据第三段中的“The idea for her study came from a newspaper article about a politician.”可知，Schroeder的研究灵感来自于一篇关于一位政治家的报纸文章，由此可知，第三段提到政治家就是为了解释为什么Schroeder开展这项研究，故C项正确。

【34题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据画线词后的“but when he heard it spoken，the politician actually sounded reasonable”可知，这位政治家看起来好像很白痴，但当他听到这些句子时，政治家说得很有道理,由此可知画线词词义为“愚蠢的”，故C项正确。

【35题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的“Twitt er's limited text allowance and social media users’ short attention make arguing your point an uphill battle。

"可知,推特有限的文字限制和社交媒体注意力的短暂，使得争论你的观点成为一场艰苦的战斗,由此可知，社交媒体的局限性使你很难解释你的观点，故B项正确。

【点睛】在词义猜测题的解题过程中，画线词前后具有转折关系的连词往往是解题的重要线索，例如本篇第3题，根据画线词后的“but when he hea rd it spoken, the politician actually sounded reasonable”可知,这位政治家看起来好像很白痴，但当他听到这些句子时，政治家说得很有道理，but一词表明画线词的意思与reasonable（合理的）相反，由此可知画线词词义为“愚蠢的”。
