Inside the Rain Room
The Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren't getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.
The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitors move, it does just that. Light and sound produce an experience that feels both natural and foreign. The exhibit is moving on to Atlanta next month. I urge you to visit before then. It's time to experience the Rain Room for yourself!
Welcome to the Rain Room

A．To keep visitors from getting wet.
B．To protect the exhibit from water damage.
C．To time how long visitors are in the room.
D．To count the number of visitors in the room.

The amount of fish caught worldwide is much larger than has been reported. And that could mean serious problems for the environment and nations that depend on fisheries (渔业). A new estimate shows that it is 32 million tons higher than countries have been reporting yearly.
The same report notes that the world's fish catch has been declining since the late 1990s. Countries report their industrial catches to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. But they do not report other kinds of fishing. This includes the catches of small commercial fisheries, which are called artisanal fisheries, and fishing for recreation and individual food.
Daniel Pauly at the University of British Columbia in Canada led the study. He noted that a huge amount of some catches is thrown away. “For example, shrimp trawlers (拖网渔船) keep only the shrimp and the fish that they catch — often eight to ten times as much as the shrimp —gets thrown away.”
Pauly told VOA that better estimates of the actual global catch will help ensure there will be enough fish in the future. “But our figures suggest that since 1996 a rapid decrease is happening. And if you project this forward you end up in a few decades having much less catch, literally no catch. So that is potentially dangerous.”
Researchers also found ways the world's fisheries are changing. They found that fishing fleets of larger nations are catching fish in the waters of developing countries more and more.
Pauly said he was surprised by the amount of fishing done by foreign fleets in competition with local fishers. “In West Africa, the figure that was most astonishing is the enormous role of foreign fishing — of European and Asian vessels fishing legally or illegally and competing against local fishermen. On the other hand for the US, Australia and some developing countries, such as the Bahamas, what was apparent is the enormous contribution of recreational fisheries, which also never get reported to the FAO.”
Researchers say inaccurate data also harms the development and supervision (监管) of effective policy and management measures.
语篇解读：世界范围内捕鱼的数量比报告中的数量要多很多，而这些虚假报告对经济和环境都造成了不好的影响。

4．What's the main idea of the passage?
A．False amount of fish caught worldwide harms economy environment.
B．The world's fish catch has been declining.
C．The global fishing competition is serious.
D．The management of global fishing needs improving.
解析：选A主旨大意题。

根据文章第一段第一、二句“The amount of fish caught worldwide is much larger than has been reported. And that could mean serious problems for the environment and nations that depend on fisheries(渔业)．”可知，本文主要阐述了关于捕鱼数量的虚假报告对环境造成了不好的影响。

故选A项。

5．What does the underlined word “it” (in Para.1) refer to?
A．The amount of foreign fishing.
B．The amount of local fishing.
C．The amount of recreational fishing.
D．The amount of all fish caught worldwide.
解析：选D代词指代题。

it为代词，指代前文，又根据32 million这个数字可推断出it指代第一句中的“The amount of fish caught worldwide”，由此可知选D项。

6．Which kind of fishing has been reported to the FAO?
A．Industrial fish catches.
B．Commercial fishing.
C．Fishing for entertainment.
D．Fishing for individual food.
解析：选A细节理解题。

根据第二段二、三句“Countries report their industrial catches to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. But they do not report other kinds of fishing.”可知，各国向联合国粮食及农业组织报告了他们的工业捕鱼量，但没有报告其他形式的捕鱼数量。

故选A项。

7．Which part is this article possibly chosen from on the Internet?
A．Health report.B．Science in the news.
C．Explorations. D．Technology report.
解析：选B文章出处题。

根据文章第四段第一句“Pauly told VOA that better estimates of the actual global catch will help ensure there will be enough fish in the future.”可知，保利在接受“美国之音”的采访时说了些话，由此可推断出这是一则新闻，故选B项。

C
(2018·合肥高三质检)“The noise made by boats of whale watching tourists may be causing communication problems for the animals，”British researchers said last week.
Whale watching is a popular tourist activity in places where
groups of killer whales (虎鲸) live.Every day, dozens of boats filled
with tourists go to watch the beautiful animals.Unfortunately, the
engines of the boats make a lot of noise, and that may be causing
problems for the whales, according to a report in the US science
magazine Nature.
The whales travel in groups, and communicate with each other through sonic calls that some scientists refer to as singing.The sounds of the boat engines may be creating too much background noise for the whales to be able to hear each other.
The researchers listened to recordings of whale calls made between 15 and 25 years ago, before whale watching became popular.These were compared to more recent recordings.
They found that the animals have started to sing for longer than they used to, like a person shouting to a friend across a noisy room.
It is believed that the whales are trying to communicate hunting or breeding information.Scientists said that, if this is prevented, the future of the world's whale population could be in danger.
“Animals become slow in mind and repeat themselves in noisy areas，” said V olker Deecke, a Canadian biologist.“They have to say things twice or three times in order to be understood.”
The killer whales studied were living off the coast of northwestern America.The number of killer whales in this area has been falling for several years, but scientists are not sure why.
语篇解读：本文首先介绍了观鲸船所产生的噪音对虎鲸的交流造成了困难，然后又介绍了观鲸旅游的盛行和虎鲸的交流方式。

8．The passage mainly tells us ________.
A．the problems of whale watching
B．how killer whales communicate with each other
C．the reduced population of killer whales caused by whale watching
D．hearing problems of the killer whales caused by whale watching
解析：选D主旨大意题。

概括文章第一段可得出答案。

观鲸船的噪音给虎鲸的信息交流造成了困难。

9．Now in a noisy background, the killer whales have to ________.
A．sing in a louder voice
B．sing longer
C．travel in smaller groups
D．get nearer to each other
解析：选B细节理解题。

由第五段可知，因为受噪音干扰，现在虎鲸“唱”的时间比原来长。

10．Scientists believe that killer whales sing to ________.
A．warn each other of dangers
B．keep in the same group
C．send useful information
D．enjoy themselves
解析：选C细节理解题。

文章倒数第三段有说明，虎鲸“唱歌”是为了交流捕食或繁殖信息。

11．From the passage, we can feel that the author is ________.
A．angry B．hopeful
C．worried D．disappointed
解析：选C推理判断题。

文章介绍观鲸船的噪音给虎鲸的交流造成了困难，从文章最后的叙述看，虎鲸数量在下降，而科学家也不明白其中原因，因此显然作者对虎鲸的生存状况感到“担忧”。

D
What's more exciting than having a fresh hot pizza delivered to your door? How about having it brought to you by a robot? Thanks to Domino's Robotic Unit, that just became a reality. On March 8, the three-foot tall robot made its first delivery to some lucky residents in Brisbane, Australia.
The autonomous DRU is the result of a cooperation between Domino's Pizza Australia and Marathon Robotics. The machine can cover a distance of up to 12 miles and back before requiring a battery recharge. Equipped with Google Maps and GPS guidance, DRU can go along bike paths and sidewalks and also find the most efficient way to its destination. LIDAR, a laser-based sensor technology similar to the one used in self-driving cars, enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles, while traditional sensors ensure its path to its destination is safe. DRU's plastic shell protects the food from the bad weather, while its aluminum and steel container ensures that the pies remain hot.
The robot can fit up to ten pizzas and even has a separate cold area to accommodate drink orders. To access their food, customers have to enter the unique code provided by the company. This not only ensures that they pick up the right pizza, but also prevents the pies from getting stolen.
Domino's expects additional DRU to be ready for service in its various Queensland locations within the next six months. But don't expect these super cute robots to replace humans anytime soon. According to Domino's, the DRU still needs much testing, which the company believes could take up to two years. There is also the issue of regulations. The public use of autonomous vehicles is still banned in most countries. But Don Meij, the CEO of Domino's Pizza, is not worried. He believes that one day DRU will become a necessary part of the Domino's family.
语篇解读：本文是一篇科普类说明文，主要介绍了一种可以上门为顾客送比萨的机器人。

12．What's the function of LIDAR?
A．Keeping DRU free of obstacles.
B．Recharging DRU's battery.
C．Helping DRU find its destination.
D．Protecting DRU from bad weather.
解析：选A细节理解题。

根据第二段中的“LIDAR, a laser-based sensor technology similar to the one used in self-driving cars, enables DRU to detect and avoid obstacles ...”可知，LIDAR的功能是使DRU察觉并避开障碍物。

故A项正确。

13．What does the underlined word “accommodate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Heat. B．Hold.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2018·济南高三一模)While you are travelling abroad, cultural mistakes are more serious than linguistic mistakes, which can lead to serious misunderstanding and even ill-feeling between individuals. __1__
●Touching Someone
__2__ In Mediterranean countries, if you don't touch someone's arm when talking to them or
if you don't greet them with kisses or a warm hug, you'll be considered cold. But backslap (拍背) someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you'll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred — never even pat a child on the head.
●Talking Over Dinner
In some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food's the thing, so don't start chatting about your day's adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner. __3__ It's not because your group is unfriendly, but because meal times are for eating, not talking.
●Removing Your Shoes or Not
Take off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and you'll be considered disrespectful. So, if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces. __4__
Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to native behavior. __5__ And don't feel offended if something seems offensive — like queue jumping. After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.
A．Personal space varies as you travel the globe.
B．Asians consider removing shoes impolite at home.
C．Never be completely surprised by anything.
D．The linguistic mistake means that someone is not fully expressing his idea.
E．Look out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.
F．If not, keep the shoes on.
G．You'll likely be met with silence.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

文章介绍了不同文化当中的不同习俗和礼仪，了解这些习俗和礼仪有助于我们避免在与外国友人交流时出现文化方面的错误或者误解。

1．选E本文是“总—分—总”的结构，而空格处所在段落是文章的总起段。

空格处应是要引出对下文三种不同的文化习俗的介绍。

E项“Look out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.”意为“当心以下这些文化错误并尽力避免它们”，能够引起下文。

故选E。

2．选A根据本段的小标题“Touching Someone”以及下文介绍的不同国家在肢体接触方面有不同的习俗可知，空格处应当总领全段。

A项“当你环球旅游时，你会发现各地对私人空间的定义是不同的”能够总领该段。

故选A。

3．选G根据空格前一句可知，在上述这些国家，吃饭的时候要专心。

当别人吃晚饭时，不要闲聊你白天的经历。

G项“你很有可能会遭遇沉默”紧密衔接上文。

故选G。

4．选F根据本段小标题“Removing Your Shoes or Not”可知，该段讨论的是“要不要脱鞋”的问题。

空格处应与空格前一句“So, if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing
your laces.”之间为对比关系。

F项“如果不是这样，那就穿上鞋子”符合语境。

故选F。

5．选C该段为总结段。

空格处应为具有总结性质的句子。

空格后一句是说如果一些事情看起来是具有冒犯性的，但是要入乡随俗，不要感觉被冒犯了，并举插队一例进行说明。

C项“不要对任何事情感到诧异”符合语境且引出下句。

故选C。
