We were late as usual. My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn’t manage, he asked me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time.

We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for flight to be called. We waited and waited, but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end, there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight L108 could get a free meal voucher (凭单) and that the plane hadn’t left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn’t safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.

The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we were reported back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!

【答案】4. A5. D6. C7. B

C

Park guards who watch North America’s highest mountain say inexperienced and overconfident climbers are taking more risks and endangering themselves and other climbers. The guards suggest many climbers are trying to move up the mountain too fast after having a year of.

Denali in southern Alaska is 6,190 meters above sea level. So, climbing it requires a high level of skill. Climbers also need to acclimate to high altitudes (海拔), which is not needed for most mountains in the US.

The National Park Service recently made a statement warning that many climbers in the Alaska Range are showing signs of inexperience and overconfidence. After reporting no deaths in 2018 and 2019, at least two people have already died on the mountain in 2021. Two others were seriously injured, officials said.

Earlier this month, a skier from the state of Colorado died after falling into a very deep cut in the ice. A climber from the state of Idaho was killed by a large falling piece of ice.

The guards made their statement after a Canadian climber was seriously injured after falling nearly 305meters. He was not wearing climbing ropes. Other climbers reported the fall. People in a helicopter (直升机) studying mountain ice in the area were able to save the man,park officials said.

The Park Service statement named several reasons for the increase in injuries and deaths. They include extreme tiredness, untested body reactions to high altitudes, quickly changing weather, and not bringing the right equipment.

In recent years,guards said they have seen more climbers try to make Denali’s top by climbing the 2,134 meters from the final base camp to the top in one day. This is nearly impossible to do except for the most experienced climbers.

Experts suggest that climbers take 17 to 2l days to reach the top of Denali. That includes rest days and extra days to wait out bad weather.

8. What does the underlined phrase “acclimate to” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. Get used to. B. Get tired of.

C. Take control of. D. Look forward to.

9. What is special about climbers in 2021 compared with those in 2018 and 2019?

A. They are not so confident. B. They face higher altitudes.

C. Most of them are beginners. D. Deaths have come up among them.

10. What mistake did the Canadian climber make?

A. He didn’t train himself to climb. B. He didn’t make sure of his safety.

C. He didn’t stay with other climbers. D. He knew little about the mountain ice.

11. What is paragraph 6 mainly about?

A. Dangers of having little climbing experience.

B. Results of climbing mountains in a hurry.

C. Causes of the climbing accidents.

D. Rules of safe mountain climbing.

【答案】8. A9. D10. B11. C

D

A scientist locked himself in a small air-tight plastic tent with 200 plants to see if they could change CO2 into oxygen (氧气) fast enough to keep him alive.

Kurtis Baute locked himself in a 3m by 3m tent in his brother’s backyard in British Columbia, Canada. He hoped to find out if by surrounding himself with plants, the CO2 he breathed out could be changed into oxygen to allow him to survive in the locked tent for at least three days. Unfortunately, he had to give up the experiment after only 15 hours, as CO2 levels reached a dangerous point where he risked suffering brain damage.

“I could probably survive in the tent for three days,” Baute wrote on his website. “But my goal is not to just ‘not die’. My goal is to end this project without developing brain damage or just generally causing lasting harm to my body. But as it turns out, that’s exactly what he risked as the 200 plants he took with him into the tent couldn’t meet his needs. Clearly, a cloudy sky prevented them from receiving all the sunlight they needed to perform photosynthesis (光合作用), so they couldn’t recycle CO2 fast enough.

“Plants are great at taking in CO2 and they love it. Since it wasn’t a bright and sunny day, they weren’t getting the light they needed, which meant CO2 just kept rising. I had to give up the experiment as that continued.” the young experimenter said.

15 hours into the experiment, Baute reached the set danger point and then ended this experiment. Still, he called the experiment a “huge success” as his main goal was actually the terrible effects of climate change and CO2 emissions. “The conclusion about my experiment is that if CO2 is too high, I’ll escape, which is just everyday experiences for many people on this planet. Everyone deserves clean air, but not everyone has it,” he wrote.

12. Why did Kurtis Baute stay in the tent for only 15 hours?

A. The tent is too small for him to stay too long.

B. The environment in the tent is dangerous for him.

C. CO2 in the tent couldn’t be changed into oxygen.

D. He couldn’t survive in the locked tent any longer.

13. What made it hard for the 200 plants to satisfy Kurtis Baute’s needs?

A. His health condition. B. His wrong decision.

C. Too much CO2. D. The cloudy weather.

14. What does Kurtis think of the result of the experiment?

A. Disappointing. B. Surprising.

C. Satisfying. D. Interesting.

15. What may be the best title for the text?

A. A test to show the importance of clean air

B. Surviving in the tent

C. The set danger point

D. Making people know the use of plants

【答案】One possible version:

Plant Trees to Save the Earth

Dear fellow students

There is no doubt that trees can benefit us in many ways. Firstly, they reduce pollution and offer us clean air. Secondly, they help deal with the climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, which can lead to global warming. Thirdly, trees help us prevent sandstorms, fight floods, and protect soil from being washed away.

Dear fellow students, the more trees we plant, the better the environment will be. It's time for us to plant some trees to make our city greener. Let's plant as many trees as possible and make our world a better place to live in.
