It has a very long history.Nobody knows for sure when the pillow was invented. It’s said that people first used pillows in Mesopotamia around 7000 BC.The pillows were made of stone and were shaped to support people’s necks. They weren’t made for comfort but for more practical purposes. The Mesopotamians wanted to keep insects out of their mouths, ears and noses. However, if you were poor, you were out of luck because the pillows were used only by the rich. In fact, the more pillows you owned, the more people admired (敬仰) you.In ancient China, pillows were made of hard materials, such as bamboo and wood. There were wonderful paintings of animals, humans and plants on the pillows. Centuries later, in Japan, some women used small hard pillows to raise their heads off the ground and keep their beautifully designed hair looking perfect. Softer pillows didn’t become common until the 9th century. The ancient Greeks and Romans put things like feathers (羽毛) and grass into pillows to make them more comfortable.In the Middle Ages, the Europeans almost stopped using pillows. They thought using pillows was a sign of illness. As time went by, things changed completely. Nowadays you can see all kinds of pillows in the market. Pillows are very common for everyone.26.What did the Mesopotamians use pillows for?A.Showing their luck.B.Sleeping comfortably.C.Keeping their hair in shape.D.Protecting themselves.27.What were pillows made of in ancient China?①wood①grass①bamboo①feathersA.①①B.①①C.①①D.①①28.Why did the Europeans almost stop using pillows in the Middle Ages?A.Because pillows weren’t sold in the market.B.Because pillows were too expensive for them.C.Because they thought it suggested the person was ill.D.Because they thought pillows weren’t comfortable.29.What can we learn from the passage?A.Pillows appeared earlier in Japan than in China.B.The time when the pillow was invented is still unknown.C.The Mesopotamians were admired because they invented the pillow.D.Women in ancient Greece used soft pillows to make their hair perfect.30.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.The history of pillows.B.Different uses of pillows.C.The importance of pillows.D.Some ways to make pillowsIn the UK, most social media companies require children to be at least 13 to create an account (账号). To get their ages checked, users are supposed to provide their ID card or passport information which is very personal. Many people worry that it may cause privacy leaks (隐私泄露). Other methods like requiring users to input their birth dates often fail to work because such information can be made up easily.To solve the problem, a new AI system has been developed by a UK tech company named Yoti. The system called Age Estmauon can tell how old users between 6 and 18 are with few mistakes.“The threats (威胁) that children face online are still growing, so I’m proud to introduce Yoti’s Age Estimation,” said Robin Tombs, CEO of Yoti. “This technology will help better protect young people while asking for no private information.”The system won’t store users’ pictures. and there is no need to register (注册) first. All it does is tell a user’s age at seeing his or her face.You may wonder how exactly the system works. The company says the AI does its job by comparing the user’s face caught by the phone’s camera with millions of other pictures. You have developed another ID app to train the AI. It has collected a great number of face pictures from people of known ages.Now the AI system has already been used on some apps in the UK. The company is making continuous efforts to make it work better in the future.31.Traditional ways of checking age require users to ________.A.show their ID cards and passports B.provide personal informationC.create a social media account D.make up their birth dates32.What can Age Estmation do according to Robin Tombs?A.Help children use social media in a proper way.B.Stop social media users from making mistakes.C.Protect children from privacy leaks.D.Make sure correct information is provided.33.To get your face checked by the system, you need to ________.A.clean your face first B.register on a websiteC.choose some clear pictures D.let the camera catch your face 34.The underlined word “it” refers to ________.A.you B.the AI system C.the ID app D.the phonecamera35.What’s the best title for the passage?A.New AI tells whether social media users are underage.B.Children’s dreams come true with the help of new AI.C.AI is having a great influence on social media.D.AI technology is developing fast in the UK.四、阅读还原6选5以下是一则短文,请阅读短文,并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。

Making the change can be a challenge for people who often have dairy and meat in their diet,according to Dena Champion,a dietitian,an expert on diet and nutrition(营养学),from Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.She added that starting a vegan diet could change your body in certain ways.It might even offer some health benefits.Reduced body weightInstead of high-fat proteins like bacon and beef,vegans get their protein from plant-based sources such as tofu,beans,soy milk,and so on." This can lead to losing weight.Considering that two-thirds of Americans are overweight,this can have a positive effect on body shape and health,"says Kailey Proctor,a dietitian at St.Joseph Hospital in California.Improved blood sugar controlBecause being overweight is a major risk for developing diabetes(糖尿病),losing weight can lower that risk.There was one study from some experts published in the magazine Nutrients in 2018.The experts chose some overweight people with no history of diabetes to switch to a vegan diet.Then they followed them for 16 weeks.Improvements and better effects are seen in those people in controlling blood sugar levels.Reduced cancer riskThere's also the chance to reduce your risk of developing cancer. "Vegan diets,when planned correctly,are also very high in fruits,vegetables and whole grains.These plant-based foods have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer," says Proctor.We should always focus on consuming whole,fresh foods as much as possible.It's important to make sure you're getting enough nutrients for your health.16. Which one belongs to a vegan diet?______A. Meat,fish,milk.B. Eggs,honey,soy milk.C. Tofu,beans,milk.D. Tofu,beans,soy milk.17. What does the underlined word "This" probably refer to?______A.

He treats them badly, so theydecide to kick him off the farm and run the farm themselves.One day an old pig called Old Major gathers the animals around him. He tells them that all animals should stand together. He says they should take over the farm. They say that all animals are equal.After they get rid of ( 摆脱) Mr Jones, two pigs become the leaders ofAnimal Farm. One pig called Snowball is a great speaker. He has big ideas for Animal Farm. The other leader is a pig called Napoleon. Napoleon is a crafty (狡猾的) animal. He brings together supporters byoffering them advantages.Napoleon makes a war against Snowball and kicks him away from the farm. He turns Snowball into a big enemy. He says that Snowball is working with Farmer Jones and other farmers to destroy Animal Farm.But as it turns out it is Napoleon who is working with the enemies of the animals. He joins up with the old human enemies of the animals. But he tells the animals that he is working for them. Meanwhile the animals work hard. It seems that it is as bad to live under Napoleon as it was under Farmer Jones!Why is the story so important?Animal Farm is an excellent choice for learners of English because it’s very short. The language is also simple.Like many famous stories Animal Farm is not just a book. It was played on the BBC radio in 1947. The big modern way of telling stories is in movies of course. Orwell’s book has become a film twice. Perhaps it won’t surprise you that the first o ne (1954) was a cartoon. In 1984 another film was made.This was a live-action (真人版的) film. The famous book has also been put on in the theater. In 1984 aversion was made and it toured a number of British cities.1.Which is the right order of what happened in the story?a.

B.15 North Street.C.10 Park Street. D.15 Apple Street .C15、New Technology Revolutionizes(变革) LearningMore and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching tools as iPads are used in a lot of courses, including language, history and science.Many teachers are supporters of using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom.Instead of spending valuable class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class prepared for discussion.The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn_________. Some students might listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially helpful to students who are learning a language at different paces. The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn (such as listening to stories and watching movies). The class has become much more interesting and creative.There are other advantages for students. By using iPads, they can pay more attention to the material and learn more. Teachingnotes are stored in their iPads and are easy to find .Some students spend more time studying now.“I can listen to my language material or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait until I get home,” a student explained.Many adults complain that technologies such as iPads are doing harm to students. They worry that students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that iPads may separate students from each other. If a student spends more time watching videos on an iPad, he will have fewer opportunities to have face-to-face communication with others.However, technologies are already a part of most students’ day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make changes with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.1.What does the expression“at their own pace” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.According to their own timetable.B.Without their teachers’ help.C.Because of their wonderful goals.D.Against their parents’ hope.2.From the passage we can learn that____.A.students with iPads have less discussion in classB.students get more fun from learning with iPadsC.iPads help students save time waiting for busesD.iPads prevent students from cheating in exams3.The writer probably agrees that____.A.teachers can take control of students’ learningB.exam results depend a lot on now technologyC.technology in education has a bright futureD.note-taking is as helpful as video-watchingD16、Located at Hurawalhi island( 芙拉瓦丽岛) ,Maldives ( 马尔代夫), the 5.8 undersea restaurant is the world's largest all-glass underwater restaurant.

It was shipped to Maldives in one entire piece, and was lowered down into the water with a special crane. The whole process took about two years. Dining in the restaurant is a wonderful experience.

Students were encouraged to express their thoughts with clarity and creativity, weaving their words into tapestries that reflected their individual perspectives and insights. The emphasis on cogent arguments, coherent structure, and linguistic finesse was evident in the scoring rubrics, which rewarded precision and fluency.Listening exercises were no less demanding, with audio clips selected to represent authentic English usage in various contexts. From academic lectures to everyday conversations, students had to navigate through accents, idiomatic expressions, and contextual cues to extract information and demonstrate comprehension. The speaking component, often the most daunting for non-native speakers, was a true test of spontaneity and confidence.

It is a testament to the belief that language is not just a subject to be studied but a skill to be lived, a journey to be embarked upon, and a treasure to be cherished. 。

He was a wise and funny man. As we all know, Samuel was a famous American writer. In fact, he also liked hunting and fishing in his free time.One day, Samuel ended his holiday in Maine and decided to return home. He drove to the train station, and then got into a carriage(客车厢)and sat down. The carriage was empty when he got in, but soon, another man got in and sat down on the seat opposite(在……的对面)him. Samuel thought it was impolite to say nothing, so he said good morning to the man, and they began to talk.They talked about the weather and then Maine.

Yang Chenhao is a doctor at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University.He said that while the school is a special case,some of its methods are highly worth learning,such as keeping children away from mobile phones and getting them outdoors more often.Yang Qingyi is a teacher at the school,which has 536 students.He said that all children are required to go outside during class breaks."Even for quiet kids,we encourage them to take a walk outside,"he said.When the three sports teachers there are busy,teachers of other subjects will work as trainers to teach basketball and table tennis."If there is one piece of advice that we can share on achieving zero myopia,I would say large amounts of outdoor activities,"said Sun Fubiao,the primary school's headmaster.Sun said that a number of his students' parents are working in other areas,so the school has fixed six public phones while not allowing use of personal mobile phones."In teacher-parent WeChat groups,we often remind parents to pay attention to kids' eye health when they are at home for weekends or vacations,"he added.16.

Working with kids' parents.DFor years,humans have fought with the dandelions (蒲公英).Most people consider dandelions as terrible grass for they can get in the way of the crops' growth.They pullthem up by the roots or kill the plants against chemicals.But our war with the dandelionsmay be over soon.It's no secret that the dandelion has its uses.Young dandelion leaves make a delicioussalad.Dandelion plants have many long,thin roots,which allow water and air to mix in and keep soil healthy.Dandelion flowers also attract ladybugs (瓢虫).Ladybugs are good to have in gardens because they can eat small bad insects.However,most people still think of the dandelion as a wild plant.Their minds need to be changed.If you pick a dandelion,you probably notice the milky juice that comes from the stems(茎).Dandelion juice is a natural source of rubber (橡胶).Around 30,000 different products are made from rubber today.Most of these products are made from rubber that comes from the rubber tree.But there are problems with these products.Some people have a serious allergy (过敏)to this kind of rubber.And a fungus (真菌)is killing out many of the rubber trees on our planet. Scientists are looking for dandelion juice to become a good source of rubber in the future.Dandelionsare easy to plant and grow quickly.People who are allergic to rubber products made from rubber trees are not likely to be allergic to dandelion rubber.When we make peace with the dandelion,we'll be planting it,instead of pulling it.21.

2020-2021学年深圳市蛇口育才第二中学高三英语二模试题及参考答案
2020-2021学年深圳市蛇口育才第二中学高三英语二模试题及参考答案第一部分阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABob and Sue Harvey spent nine years as resident fellows in a dormitory at Sanford and in their bookVirtual Reality and The College Freshman, they write “The Freshman oftenfaces an identity problem during the first semester.” College is a more pressured environment than it used to be, in part because the academic gap between high school and college has increased. Many college freshmen have never had to make independent decisions about sex, drugs and alcohol. Most don’t know how to manage their time or money. They often feel lonely and overwhelmed, resulting in anxiety and depression.Nancy Corbin, director of clinical service for student-counseling (咨询) services at Iowa State University, says her office is seeing a significant increase in requests for counseling from freshmen who are having trouble making the adjustment to college life. She says older teenagers increasingly lack the skills to deal with personal problems that aren’t easily defined or fixed. And they get homesick but have a hard time admitting it.Parents and high schools can make things easier on freshmen by preparing them differently. For example, by teaching them to budget their hours and dollars. The Harveys think high schools should offer a college-life course. “Parents need to focus more on relationship and personal issues and less on how many sheets and towels to take,” they say. Many homesick freshmen think they’ll be regarded as failures if they come home before Thanksgiving. So parents can help by letting them know they’re welcome to return if they feel the need. In the meantime, parents have to find new ways to keep in touch with their college kids. One of the best ways is e-mail. It’s less unpleasant and less expensive than constant phone calls and is more likely to be answered than a handwritten letter.1. Why is the first semester difficult for freshmen in college?A. Because they often fail in exams.B. Because they lack time and money.C. Because they are too homesick to make new friends.D. Because they have to settle personal issues on their own.2. In the last paragraph, it is suggested that ________.A. parents should stop buying anything for their kidsB. parents should develop a good relationship with their kidsC. parents should be taught how to send e-mails to their kidsD. parents should work with high schools in college-life courses3. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Hard Life of College FreshmenB. Approaches to Trouble in CollegeC. Freshmen’s Adaptation ProblemsD. A Strange Phenomenon in CollegeBBritish sculptor Jason Taylor has made it his mission to use his talent to conserve our ecosystems by creating underwater museums. Over the years, the environmentalist has put over 850 massive artworks underwater worldwide. On February 1, 2021, Taylor launched his latest work — The Underwater Museum of Cannes.―The main goal was to bring attention to the fact that our oceans need our help,‖ Taylor told Dezeen. ―Ocean ecology has been destroyed by human activity in the Mediterranean over the past few decades, and it is not obvious what is taking place when observing the sea from afar.‖The Underwater Museum of Cannes contains 6 sculptures featuring local residents of various ages. They range from Maurice, an 80-year-old fisherman, to Anouk, a 9-year-old student. Towering over 6-feet-tall and weighing 10 tons, the faces are sectioned into two parts, with the outer part like a mask. The mask indicates that the world’s oceans appear powerful and unbeatable from the surface but house an ecosystem that is extremely fragile to careless human activities.Though the waters surrounding the sculptures now appear a pristine blue, the seabed was filled with old boat engines, pipes, and other human-made trash when the project began about four years ago. Besides removing the trash, Taylor also restored the area’s sea grass. Just one square meter of the sea grass can generate up to 10 liters of oxygen daily. The sea grass also helps prevent coastal erosion and provides habitats for many ocean creatures.―The idea of creating an underwater museum was to draw more people underwater and develop a sense of care and protection,‖ Taylor told Dezeen. ―If we threw unwanted waste near a forest, there would be a public outcry. But this is happening every day in our surrounding waters and it largely goes unnoticed.4. Why does the outer part ofthe sculptures look like a mask?A. To popularize the features of the locals.B. To remind people to protect themselves.C. To reflect people’s protection of the ocean.D. To stress the sensitiveness of the ecosystem.5. What’s paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How the project was started.B. How the sea grass was restored.C. What recovery effort the project made.D. Why the surroundings were improved.6. What can we infer from what Jason Taylor said in the last paragraph?A. The situation of the ocean is easily ignored.B. The destruction caused to the ocean is noticeable.C. Forests play a more important role in ecosystems.D. People have zero tolerance to damage done to nature.7. What might be the best title for the text?A. The Underwater Museum, a long way to go.B. The Underwater Museum, a big difference to the sea.C. The Underwater Museum, an appeal to conserve ecosystems.D. The Underwater Museum, a masterpiece of Jason Taylor.CA company called Neuralink has shared a video which appears to show a monkey playing a video game, but what makes the video even stranger is that themonkey is playing the video game with just its mind.Neuralink is a company owned by Elon Musk, which is working to develop devices that could allow people to control things using just their brains. The monkey in the video is called Pager, having special "Link" devices inside his brain. These devices are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands.Scientists taught Pager to play a video game using a banana juice as a reward when he playedthe game correctly. Soon Pager was eager to play well in order to get more smoothie. At first, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick (操纵杆). But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Neuralink's scientists recorded all of these signals.Then they used computers to match up the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was challenging work and the scientists counted on artificial intelligence (AI) to help themdecode (解码) Pager's brain signals.The next step was to have a computer make moves in the video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an "up"signal to the video game. Thus Pager was able to play the video game using just his brain.When people are paralyzed (瘫痪的), it's often because the brain has lost the ability to send signals to nerves and muscles in certain parts of the body. Neuralink hopes that one day, its system will be ableto send this information in a different way, allowing paralyzed people to use their arms or legs again.8. What does Neuralink aim to do?A. To make monkeys much smarter.B. To solve complex problems with monkeys.C. To create a device linking monkeys and people.D. To make people control things with their brains.9. How does the author introduce the process of the research?A. In order of time.B. By making a comparison.C. By giving examples.D. In order of space.10. What played an important role in the success of the research?A. The joystick.B. Artificial intelligence.C. The video game.D. The banana smoothie.11. Which is the most suitable title of the test?A. Neuralink Posts an Unusual VideoB. Disabled People Have a Bright FutureC. Monkey Plays Video Games with His MindD. Neuralink, a Creative and Competitive CompanyDIf you’re looking for a reason to care about tree loss, this summer’s record-breaking heat waves might be it. Trees can lower summer daytime temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit, according to arecent study. But tree cover in US cities is shrinking (缩减). A study published last year by the US Forest Service found that we lost 36 million trees annually from urban and rural communities over a five-year period. “If we continue on this path, cities will become warmer, more polluted and generally unhealthier for inhabitants,” said David Nowak, a senior US Forest Service scientist and co-author of the study. Nowak says there are many reasons why our treecover is declining, including hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, insects and disease. But the one reason for tree loss that humans can control is sensible development.Nowak says there is a downside to trees too, such as pollen allergy (花粉过敏) or large tailing branches in storms, and people don’t like sweeping leaves. But, he says, there are ways cities and counties can manage trees to help communities thrive (繁荣). Urban forests especially need our help to replace fallen trees. Unlike rural areas, it is very difficult for trees to repopulate themselves in a city environment with so much pavement and asphalt (沥青). “A lot of our native trees can’t actually find a place to drop a seed so they can regenerate,” explains Greg Levine, co-executivedirector of Trees Atlanta. “That’s why the community has to go in and actually plant a tree because the areas just aren’t natural anymore.”Nowak says the first step is caring for the trees on your own property (财产). “We think we pay for our house, and sowe must maintain it. But because we don’t pay for nature, we don’t need to. And that’s not necessarily true.”12. Why does the author mention “trees can lower summer daytime temperatures”?A. To tell the temperatures in summer are high.B. To explain the reason of tree loss.C. To tell trees are helpful.D. To introduce the topic.13. How can humans control tree loss according to Nowak?A. Develop cities in reasonable ways.B. Prevent fires form damaging trees.C. Improve climate to let trees grow.D. Decrease insects in cities.14. Why do forests in cities need our help?A. Because trees don’t grow in a city environment.B. Because native trees don’t drop seeds any more.C. Because trees in urban areas can’t regenerate naturally.D. Because humans want to plant more trees.15. What is the purpose of this passage?A. Describe the importance of trees in cities.B. Appeal people to protect trees in their surroundings.C. Ask people to plant trees with the author.D. Show the number of trees in theUSis declining.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

According to reports, about 35.6 percent of primary school students and nearly 81 percent of senior high school students are nearsighted(近视的) in China.Considering this background, Wantang Primary School in Yunnan province really stands out. This is because none of the students at this school suffer from myopia. Parents, teachers and eye experts began discussing whether the school’s experience can be used to tackle the rising level of myopia across China.Yang Chenhao is a doctor at the Children’s Hospital of Fudan University. He said that while the school is a special case, some of its methods are highly worth learning, such as keeping children away from mobile phones and getting them outdoors more often.Yang Qingyi is a teacher at the school, which has 536 students. He said that all children are required to go outside during class breaks. “Even for quiet kids, we encourage them to take a walk outside,” he said. When the three sports teachers there are busy, teachers of other subjects will work as trainers to teach basketball and table tennis.“If there is one piece of advice that we can share on achieving zero myopia, I would say large amounts of outdoor activities,” said Sun Fubiao, the primary school’s headmaster. Sun said that a number of his students’ parents are working in other areas, so the school has fixed six public phones while not allowing use of personal mobile phones.“In teacher-parent WeChat groups, we often remind parents to pay attention to kids’ eye health when they are at home for weekends or vacations,” he added.( ) 16. How is the first paragraph organized?A. By listing numbers.B. By telling stories.C. By giving examples.D. By comparing facts.( ) 17.

Wantang Primary School is worth learning in some ways.C. Children should not use a mobile phone.D. Parents should pay more attention to their kids.( ) 19. What may Yang Qingyi often do during class breaks?A. He may look after the quiet students.B. He may help with other sports teachers.C. He may make sare every child is safe.D. He may encourage students to go outside.( ) 20. What is the most important way to achieve zero myopia according to Sun Fubiao?A. Less time of learning at school.B. Fixing enough public phones.C. Much time of outside activities.D. Working with kids' parents.CFor years, humans have fought with the dandelions(蒲公英). Most people consider dandelions as terrible grass for they can get in the way of the crops’ growth. They pull them up by the roots or kill the plants against chemicals. But our war with the dandelions may be over soon.It’s no secret that the dandelion has its uses. Young dandelion leaves make a delicious salad. Dandelion plantshave many long, thin roots, which allow water and air to mix in and keep soil healthy. Dandelion flowers also attract ladybugs(瓢虫). Ladybugs are good to have in gardens because they can eat small bad insects. However,most people still think of the dandelion as a wild plant. Their minds need to be changed.If you pick a dandelion, you probably notice the milky juice that comes from the stems(茎). Dandelion juice is a natural source of rubber(橡胶). Around 30,000 different products are made from rubber today. Most of these products are made from rubber that comes from the rubber tree. But there are problems with these products. Some people have a serious allergy(过敏) to this kind of rubber. And a fungus(真菌) is killing out many of the rubber trees on our planet.Scientists are looking for dandelion juice to become a good source of rubber in the future. Dandelions are easy to plant and grow quickly. People who are allergic to rubber products made from rubber trees are not likely to be allergic to dandelion rubber. When we make peace with the dandelion, we’ll be planting it, instead of pulling it.( ) 21. Why do humans fight against dandelions?A. Dandelions produce harmful chemicals.B. Dandelions affect the crops growth.C. Dandelions are harmful people’s health.D. Dandelions are useless.( ) 22. Match the following things with the information and choose the right answer.①Leaves a. Keep soil healthy②Stems b. Attract ladybugs to eat bad insects③Roots c. Make a salad④Flowers d. Make rubber productsA. ①-c; ②-a; ③-b; ④-dB. ①-d; ②-c; ③-a; ④-bC. ①-c; ②-b; ③-a; ④-dD. ①-c; ②-d; ③-a; ④-b( ) 23. What is the attitude of scientists towards the dandelion-rubber?A. Proud.B. Hopeful.C. Uncaring.D. Doubtful.( ) 24. What can we infer from the passage?A. Dandelions can’t be killed by fungus.B. Dandelions will be less and less.C. Rubber trees will disappear in the future.D. Dandelion rubber has some advantages over rubber from rubber trees.( ) 25. In which part of a newspaper can we most probably read this passage?A. Travel.B. Science.C. Nature.D. Health.第二节请阅读下面的短文,并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。
