第二部分阅读理解（满分40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。

21．（6分）Morocco has a lot of sun, a lot of deserts and a high demand for imported fuel. And that's why the Moroccan government is moving ahead with a huge concentrated solar power plant near the desert city of Ouarzazate — one of four plants in total which, when completed, will have generating capacity(发电量) of 580MW. Combined with the country’s wind and hydro-power (水力发电) efforts, Morocco’s ambitious solar push will mean the country will get close to 50% of its electricity from renewable generation as early as 2020.
Phase I of the project, the 160MW Noor l, is going to start generating electricity next month and includes a capacity for molten sand energy storage which will allow up to 3 hours of electricity generation after the sun goes down. Phases 2 and 3 will have the capacity for up to eight hours of storage, meaning that solar energy really could be used to power homes around the clock.
Besides the scale of such plans, what’s impressive to me is how quickly the renewable energy can be developed. What other forms of energy could so greatly change a country’s energy composition in just a few short years? Not only should this be an encouraging sign for those of us who favor renewable energy, but it also should give reason for would-be investors in traditional fossil fuel generating industry.
If renewable energy costs continue to fall, even existing(现有的) coal and gas plants will find themselves limited by newer, cleaner forms of energy that can be increased rapidly.
Interestingly, some analysts suggest this is happening already. In the US, for example, coal power plants are being retired earlier than expected due to a combination of increased competition from gas and renewable energy, as well as tighter regulations of emissions (排放). Also, increasing amounts of solar and wind cause gas and coal plants not to use, significantly reducing their profits and further giving an edge to the clean energy competition.
If this proves to be the case in North Africa too, Morocco's solar ambitions could help transform the energy system well beyond its own borders.
1、What's the main theme of the passage?
A．Solar energy is fully developed in Morocco.
B．There are advantages of developing solar energy.
C．Morocco is a country with quantities of deserts.
D．Morocco's efforts to generate renewable electricity.
2、What is the advantage of Phase l?
A．Its energy storage can last up to three hours.
B．It has the capacity for as many as eight hours.
C．It continues producing electricity after the sun sets.
D．It is going to begin generating electricity in a month.
3、What does the author think of the renewable energy development?
A．Upset. B．Striking. C．Sensitive. D．Doubtful.
4、Coal power plants in the US are being retired earlier than expected because of
________.
A．various reasons B．heavy pollution
C．fierce competition D．the government's limitation

25．（10分）Do you completely understand your teenagers who are between 13 to 19? They may live a happy and meaningful life on condition that you know what changes they are undergoing.
The teenage life is full of happiness, sadness enjoyment and it can he interesting too. This is because in the teenage life a teenager is subjected to physical growth, and hormonal changes. They may be in a stage of conflict like undergoing puppy love. This
is only a normal part of life.
Teenagers should enjoy life by making friends with peers in healthy activities such as camping, picnic, swimming and so on. Through friends, a teenager learns to joke, laugh and play to release stress and tension.

They love to follow up with the latest trends for dressing and hairstyle. Some girls and boys go on a crash diet to slim down in order to look attractive. However, making up is not a must for their good image.
Parents tend to play a role in a teenager’s life. They like to control their freedom and have a say on what the teenagers do. Therefore, teenagers have cases of
disagreements, disputes, quarrels and even runaways from homes among some teenage girls. To avoid this, parents should be more in their teenager’s shoes.
There are also negative problems that may pop out during a teenage life. Some teenagers are easily affected by the mass media and the people around them. They may be involved in violent behavior, drugs taking, smoking, drinking and so on. Others tend to let off their anger by destroying public property.

29、Dear Liuwei,
In your last letter, you asked me for advice on your winter vacation plan. Here I have three suggestions for you: you can attend the winter camp held by a foreign high school, volunteer to work in a local history museum as a temporary docent, or preview the next semester's courses to make preparations for the next semester's study. If I were you, I would choose to attend the winter camp, because after a semester's intense study, we all need to relax, and the winter camp is one of the best ways to relax ourselves. In the winter camp, we can not only participate in the colorful activities held by it, but also make friends with foreign students. More importantly, we can experience foreign culture in person, which is very interesting and has great benefits for our oral English. In view of the above reasons, I suggest that you attend the winter camp. And you'd better know the customs of the country you want to visit in advance.
Wish you a happy winter vacation!
Yours sincerely,
Wanghua。
