The worsening air quality in tropical(热带的) cities is causing ever greater threats to people’s health and this trend will only get worse as the urbanization(城市化) is progressing quickly, scientists have warned. In a newly published study, a team of researchers explain that across all the 46 cities they surveyed from Africa to Asia, they have measured significant annual increases in pollutants harmful to health.
This trend is troubling as tropical cities usually lack proper air pollution monitoring measures and policies to deal with the problem. “These cities are predicted to reach populations of up to 80 million people by 2100, so actions targeting human-related pollution are badly needed,” the scientists stress.
Already the number of people dying prematurely(过早地) from long exposure to air pollution has been on the increase and people living in cities in South Asia are the worst affected. In Dhaka, Bangladesh, some 24, 000 people die of such causes each year while around 100, 000 people die in Indian cities such as Mumbai, Bangalore etc.
“The number of deaths in tropical cities in Africa is still lower due to recent improvements in health care there. But the worst effects of air pollution on health will likely occur in the coming decades,” the scientists say.
The reasons for worsening air quality in tropical cities lie in increasing road traffic, waste burning, and the widespread use of coal and wood. Industry is also partly to blame. “Open burning for land clearance in the past contributed most to air pollution in the tropics,” explains Karn Vohra, an author of the study. “Our analysis suggests we’re entering a new age when some cities experience rates of air pollution in a year that others experience in a decade,” Vohra warns.
28. What is the function of the numbers mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To show the negative effect of urbanization.
B. To warn people to limit their time of going out.
C. To remind people to pay attention to their health.
D. To display the seriousness of air pollution in some tropical cities.
29. What helps the tropical cities in Africa maintain a lower death rate?
A. The fast-paced urbanization.
B. The improvements in health care.
C. The proper policies dealing with air pollution.
D. The effective air pollution monitoring measures.
30. What does the underlined word “blame” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Take responsibility.
B. Get affected.
C. Break down.
D. Check out.
31. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Air pollution is fast getting worse in tropical cities
B. The growing population is speeding up air pollution
C. Human activities lead to air pollution in tropical cities
D. It’s of great importance to increase the use of green energy
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. A
D
Heavy space suits, limited electricity and water, no communication with the outside world, or no fresh fruits and vegetables, you wouldn’t be mistaken if you’re picturing a space mission to Mars. And that’s exactly what NASA wanted with their copied Mar’s training programming.
For four months, Kate Green and five others lived in isolation(隔离)at the top of the Hawaiian volcano of Mauna Loa. Though not real astronauts, they lived, worked, and slept inside of a specially built circular house in order to understand what life on Mars could be like. In her new book, Once Upon a Time I Lived on Mars: Space, Exploration, and Life on Earth, Kate writes about her experiences and what human exploration really means.
Here’s some of what she wrote: "As expected, while I was away on Mars my home changed as well. When an astronaut comes back, Earth isn’t where it was. The whole system has changed from under and all around. It’s like anything, though. You leave and come back, and home isn’t what it was. But sometimes leaving is the only way to know it was ever home in the first place."
In the days and weeks after returning to Earth, my partners and I ate fresh fruits and vegetables and we shared some of our more personal observations during the mission, all in service, we believed, of a better imagined future trip to Mars. Those early days back home are something of being unclear, though I do recall the strength of certain sensations(知觉). Loud noises easily frightened me. It took days for me to not actively notice even the slightest wind on my skin.
Although tough and unknown, we must believe that we humans can better explore space through our on-going efforts.
32. Why did Kate and her partners live in the circular house?
A. To train an astronaut.
B. To earn a lot of money.
C. To experience virtual life on Mars.
D. To collect writing materials for
a book.
33. What can we infer from the third paragraph?
A. The home on Mars has changed.
B. The earth system has been damaged.
C. Only leaving makes you know the meaning of home.
D. Kate has to adapt to two different living conditions.
34. What is the author’s attitude towards the space exploration?
A. Unconcerned.
B. Doubtful.
C. Positive.
D. Unclear.
35. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A biology textbook.
B. A science magazine.
C. A fitness paper.
D. A travel brochure.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. C 35. B

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Tim and his wife went shopping for some supplies during last month’s deadly storm in Texas.
Tim immediately regretted the trip when he saw the line of people outside, waiting to enter the Leander H-E-B Plus. But the couple wanted to be prepared in case conditions worsened. They had shopped for about fifteen minutes before the store suddenly lost power and light went out.
Customers continued shopping until a store manager asked them to head to the checkout counter. Tim and his wife joined what he thought to be a few hundred people in a long check-out line.
When the couple arrived at the checkout counter, the cashier let them through saying there wasn’t time to bag anything. Tim thought the store would collect his information for payment later. Yet when he and his wife asked about paying, the cashier said, “Just go ahead and be safe driving home.”
“I saw all these people going out with carts and it kind of surprised us. Wow! They are letting everybody leave with free groceries,” Tim said.
Touched by the unexpected act of kindness they experienced, many customers decided to pay it forward as they left the store. Out in the parking lot, complete strangers helped each other to put unbagged groceries into cars.
“This older woman couldn’t get her car moving because of the ice,” Tim said. “She looked worried, so I knocked on her window and three or four of us actually pushed her and got her moving.”
On the ride home, the couple thought about their experience and were deeply moved.
To show their thanks, they planned to give what they would have spent on groceries to an H-E-B supported charity.
“I think everybody thought it was a nice act for a company,” he said. "And it makes you want to help other people too.

_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________
【答案】Hearing his words, his wife nodded firmly. With her permission, Tim drove his car to the nearest H-E-B supported charity in hope of helping more people. About half an hour later, they arrived at the destination. On parking their car, they couldn’t wait to find the person in charge, a handsome young man, big smile on face. They said they would donate some money to show their love to the people in need. “Thank you for your generosity and kindness. What you give will help 5 students whose families are too poor to pay for their lunch,” said the young man.
After doing everything they could do, they drove home merrily. “What do you think of this trip?” asked Tim. “And do you want to do more besides today?” His wife thought highly of his behavior and suggested going to the charity whenever they were free. Not only did they both promise to do whatever they could to give a hand to more people, but also they would tell their son the whole story and pass down this little kindness.。
