In today’s world, the turn towards renewable (可再生的) energy sources is not just an environmental requirement but also a necessity for technological innovation and sustainable development. You are welcome to learn about renewable energy sources in the Museum of Science.
Renewable energy sources Brief introduction
Geothermal energy
Geothermal energy comes from the heat stored beneath the earth’s surface. This energy is used to generate electricity or to heat buildings. Geothermal plants are typically located in regions with volcanic activity, where the earth’s heat is more accessible.
Wind power
Wind energy is generated by turning the kinetic energy from wind into mechanical (机械的) power, which can then be used for electricity. Large wind farms are often located in coastal areas or open plains where the wind is lasting and strong. Wind power is one of the fastest-growing energy sources.
Solar energy
Solar energy is harvested through solar panels (帆板) that turn sunlight directly into electricity. This form of energy is advantageous in sunny regions and significantly reduce consumers’ electricity bills. Technological advance has increased the efficiency of solar panels, making solar energy more accessible than ever before.
Hydropower
Hydropower uses the flow of water from rivers or man-made facilities like dams to generate energy. It is the most established form of renewable energy and accounts for a significant part of the world’s total electricity, especially in countries with rich water resources.
21. What’s the feature of geothermal energy?
A. It’s the most important energy.
B. It’s stored inside the earth.
C. It’s a kind of mechanical power.
D. It’s common on the earth’s surface.
22. What do the renewable energy sources have in common?
A. They’re somehow restricted by the regions.
B. They’re apparently hard to make use of.
C. They’re accessible all the year round.
D. They’re in urgent demand worldwide.
23. Who is this text probably written for?
A. The general public.
B. Power engineers.
C. Electricity workers.
D. Energy scientists.
B
In the unpredictable world of online selling, a recent post took an unexpected turn for a woman who had just experienced a tough breakup.
Little did she know that her attempt to part with a seemingly “stupid” coffee table would lead to an outpouring of kindness and support.
The woman, trying to get rid of the end of a relationship, decided to sell a coffee table for $100, accompanied by
a description that painted a picture of her post-breakup struggles.
The table was dubbed (戏称) “stupid” for being too tall for her sofa, too short for anything else, and, to make matters worse, it was a reminder of her former awful mate.
Little did she expect that the attention would quickly move from the furniture to her cat.
The flood of over 500 messages filling her inbox was not asking about the table but rather about the cat on it, with people joking if it would come with the cat.
Among the unexpected flood of messages, a brilliant suggestion came out from the crowd—why not ask for $1 from 100 people via Venmo and then just get rid of the table? Imbibing the creativity and humor in this suggestion, she decided to give it a try.
To her delight and gratitude, the practice worked, and she soon found herself on the receiving end of $100 from a supportive community.
In a heartfelt message expressing her astonishment, she said, “I am absolutely blown away by the outpouring of kindness and support I have been shown, and am still in disbelief at all that’s unfolded since I posted this in the middle of the night thinking no one would see it.”
24. What do we know about the woman?
A. She was a pet lover.
B. She used to be a saleswoman.
C. Her idea proved stupid.
D. Her marriage broke down.
25. Why did the woman dub the coffee table “stupid”?
A. It was in poor condition.
B. It was quite difficult to sell.
C. It looked very ugly in the post.
D. It brought back her painful memory.
26. What does the underlined word “Imbibing” in paragraph 7 mean?
A. Accepting.
B. Expecting.
C. Imagining.
D. Offering.
27. What’s the purpose of this text?
A. To comfort the woman.
B. To sell the coffee table.
C. To share a touching story.
D. To introduce sales methods.
C
In recent years, vertical (垂直的) farming has appeared as a solution to the growing demand for food in urban areas. This innovative farming approach involves planting crops within a controlled environment. By making use of high buildings, vertical farms can produce crops year-round, independent of weather conditions, while using considerably less water and land than traditional farming.
One of the key advantages of vertical farming is its ability to fully use space. In cities like Singapore, which is short of arable (可耕的) land, vertical farms have successfully grown leafy greens and herbs in high-rise buildings. These farms use hydroponic systems that deliver water and nutrients directly to the roots of plants, reducing the need for soil and large pieces of land.
Moreover, vertical farming significantly reduces the carbon emission in the process of transporting food from countrysides to urban areas. By growing food directly in cities, these farms cut down on the emissions from transportation, offering fresher produce to consumers in cities. This local approach to farming also helps in creating job opportunities.
However, the technology behind vertical farming is not without its hurdles. The initial investment for setting up a vertical farm can be high, particularly due to the costs of specialized lighting and climate control systems. Additionally, while vertical farms can grow vegetables and fruits, they are currently not well-suited for crops like wheat or rice, which require large fields.
Despite these hurdles, the benefits of vertical farming, such as higher production and reduced environmental impact, make it a model for the future of agriculture, especially in cities with large population.
28. What can be learnt about Singapore in paragraph 2?
A. It uses its arable land creatively.
B. It benefits from vertical farming greatly.
C. It lacks a key agricultural resource.
D. It creates the concept of vertical farming.
29. How does vertical farming help to reduce carbon emission?
A. It helps to control urban expansion.
B. It uses environmentally-friendly energy.
C. It adopts advanced ways to plant crops.
D. It shortens the distance to transport food.
30. What does the author highlight about vertical farming in paragraph 4?
A. Its investment.
B. Its challenges.
C. Its development.
D. Its future.
31. How does the author probably like vertical farming?
A. Unnecessary.
B. Promising.
C. Impossible.
D. Mature.
D
A terrible heat wave is bearing down the U.S., creating potentially dangerous conditions for millions of people in large areas.
Experts say the temperature will break daily record highs and last throughout the week in what the National Weather Service has described as the first major heat wave of the summer.
The heat wave is beginning to affect the Midwest on Sunday, and over the next few days will reach much of the Great Lakes, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Those extreme conditions are expected to last all week.
The temperature in Chicago on Sunday is expected to reach as high as 93 and the climb will go on next Monday. Detroit has been preparing for “dangerously hot conditions” all week, with possible top heat as high as 100 degrees.
The extreme weather forms owing to a Heat Dome (HD) affecting much of the western and southwestern U.S. earlier this month. HD is a natural phenomenon that refers to the standstill of upper atmospheric high pressure for a period of time. The atmospheric circulation (循环) between the high pressure and nearby low pressure forms a “ Ω ” shape. The high pressure acts as a cover in the area where the heat wave occurs, thus holding back cold air and causing the temperature inside to sharply rise.
Health officials are urging people to take extra measures, since extreme heat can harm your health. According to the NWS, heat is one of the leading weather-related causes of death in the US.
Those most at risk for heat-related illness include babies, young children, elder adults and people with chronic (慢性的) medical conditions.
People should be on the lookout for signs of heat stroke. Heat stroke, which is serious, can cause confusion, loss of consciousness, sweating and a very high body temperature. If you suspect someone has heat stroke, call 911
immediately and move the person to a cooler place.
32. Why are the geographic names mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To show the wide range of the heat wave.
B. To illustrate the influence of these places.
C. To explain the disasters in these places.
D. To explore the cause of the heat wave.
33. What’s the possible temperature in Chicago next Monday?
A. 83 degrees.
B. 90 degrees.
C. 93 degrees.
D. 96 degrees.
34. What’s the effect of HD?
A. It reduces the air pressure.
B. It cuts down heat exchange.
C. It absorbs cold air from the outside.
D. It speeds up the atmospheric circulation.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Several Heat Waves Strike the US
B. A Terrible Heat Wave Swept across the US
C. Millions in the US Prepare for a Heat Wave
D. The Longest-lasting Heat Wave Reached the US

It was my first winter in New York, and the city was covered in a thick blanket of snow. I decided to embrace the extremely cold weather by visiting Central Park to see it transformed by the winter’s touch. As I walked through the
park, the fresh snow crunched under my boots, which sounded like a piece of cheerful music, and I could see families enjoying skiing down the small hills, full of fun and laughter. I felt a mixture of excitement and homesickness, missing my hometown’s warmer winters yet thrilled by the new experiences ahead of me.
It was on that very day that I met Alex, a freelance (自由职业的) photographer. While wandering in the world of ice and snow, I noticed one that captured the winter scenes, and his camera was focused on a group of children building a huge snowman, which stimulated my curiosity. I walked towards him and struck up a conversation with him about photography and the magic of New York in winter. He offered to share some tips and show me some of his favorite shots and images. Inspired by his works and passion, I was wondering and asked if he would mind giving me a quick photography lesson right there in the park.
Alex agreed readily and enthusiastically, inviting me to join him, and we spent the next hour experimenting with different settings on my camera. Devoted to this communication and learning, I felt that time passed quickly. As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the snow, we captured some beautiful shots while enjoying the magnificent scene here. Feeling grateful for the impromptu (即兴的) lesson, I thanked him and started to head home, filled with joy and a sense of satisfaction.
As I walked down the way out of the park, I realized I had left my gloves next to where we had been standing.
注意：
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右；

I turned back to find them and saw Alex waving them in his hand. He smiled brightly and walked towards me. “Here you go, forgetful one!” he joked, and I felt embarrassed by my oversight. “I really appreciate your help today,”
I said sincerely. We chatted for a few minutes. As we walked together towards the exit, he mentioned that he volunteers at a local nursing home and asked if I would like to join him some time. I eagerly agreed, and the idea of spending more time with this friendly photographer filled me with anticipation.
A few days later, I went to the nursing house with Alex. He told me that he regularly went there to take photos for the elderly and spent some time with them. I was deeply moved by his good deeds and decided to join him. We
recorded their joy and memories with our cameras. Seeing their happy smiles because of our arrival, I felt extremely satisfied and happy. It was a rewarding experience, and I was grateful to have met Alex and been a part of his mission to bring happiness to others.。
