Hua Sheng and Lu Sheng, a retired Tibetan couple, have become trailblazers（开拓者）of grape growing and wine-making in their old ages.
Lu Sheng learned grape planting and winemaking from her grandmother’s sister. Since they retired, the couple have moved to Lhasa from the village of Yakhadi. Though the fact that the region’s capital, which is 3,600 meters above sea level, is considered unfit for growing grapes, Lu Sheng and Hua Sheng began an ambitious project in 2015, planting grapes in Tsalna, a town in the suburb of Lhasa.
They received support from the local government, which is committed to developing business and the economy. The couple’s project provides jobs for rural residents, and, as a result, the government has considered the project part of its poverty relief program.
“Lhasa is an ideal place for planting French grape varieties that are resistant to cold, drought and disease, and adaptable to high-altitude and open-air planting," Lu Sheng said.
“Thanks to the plateau’s sunshine and organic planting, our grapes grow very well here in Lhasa. The grapes are a bit sour and sweet, and they have a high anthocyanin（花青素）content,” she said. Anthocyanins, which are in grape cells and contribute rich color to wine, are water-soluble（水溶性的）.
In 2018, Hua Sheng and Lu Sheng expanded their project, planting on nearly 6.67 hectares. In order to familiarize Tibetan farmers with grape planting and winemaking, they taught the skills to local villagers.
“We have successfully taught the local farmers how to grow grapes and make wine over the three years. They now have a new source of income besides traditional farrming and herding,” Hua Sheng said.
Yudron, a resident of Nam, said she was grateful to the grape planting project in her village, which has contributed to her income and quality of life." After working in the vineyards for years, now we know how to make wine. We drink both barley and grape wine now. We love grape wine more, though, as it is healthier.
4. What did the couple do after their retirement?
A. They grew grapes and made wine in Lhasa.
B. They made friends with a French expert.
C. They moved to another city from Lhasa.
D. They learned grape planting from Hua Sheng’ S grandmother.
5. Why was the couple’s project thought of as a poverty relief program?
A. They donated grapes to local schools.
B. They provided free wine for villagers.
C. They employed local residents as workers.
D. They expanded the project with the local government.
6. Which is the function of anthocyanins?
A. They make grapes more delicious.
B. They can accelerate the growth of grapes.
C. They make grapes宣bit sour and sweet.
D. They provide rich color’s for wine.
7. For/the project conducted by the couple, Yudron is ________ .

The Chinese manned submersible (潜水器) Fendouzhe, over 96.5 percent of whose core components have been independently developed by China, reached one of the deepest spots on the planet, a dizzying and dark depth of 10,909 meters.
Extreme water pressure is the first challenge that requires dealing with during the exploration. At 10,000 meters down in the ocean, the submersible has to stand about 1,100 atmospheres of pressure, equal to 2,000 elephants stepping on a person’s back. As the solid “armour (盔甲)”, the manned cabin is a safety guarantee for humans to reach down to 10,000 meters deep in the ocean. To overcome the technical bottleneck, the Chinese researchers developed a new material-Ti62A, successfully solving problems of the strength and toughness of the manned cabin.
To avoid risks of crashes in the dark deep sea with complex terrain (地形), Fendouzhe requires its control system, a smart “brain” to give the exact instructions. Researchers designed a neural network algorithm (神经网络算法), which enables Fendouzhe to travel automatically according to the seabed terrain and locate fixed points. Its control system has reached the international frontier level.
The submersible is equipped with two flexible and strong “arms”. Each 7-joint arm with 6 degrees-of-freedom control and a weight-carrying ability of more than 60 kilograms can cover the sampling basket and its front areas. With the arms, Fendouzhe collected samples of ocean rocks, deep-sea living things and seabed sediments (沉淀物).
The ocean, especially the deep sea, is widely regarded as Earth’s final frontier. Deep down in the ocean are unusual creatures, strange environments and impressive geological wonders, yet humanity knows less about the ocean floor than about the far side of the moon. These samples and data collected from the deep ocean can be used for geological and biological research, as well as study the human impact on the planet.
8. Why is “2000 elephants” mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. To make the numbers accurate.
B. To provide a biological explanation.
C. To emphasize the importance of the task.
D. To describe the degree of the pressure vividly.
9. Which of the following has reached the world advanced level ?
A. The toughness of the cabin. B. The ability of weight-carrying.
C. The method of data-collection. D. The technology of control system.
10. What can “arms” do according to paragraph 4?
A. Collect ocean samples. B. Land the submersible.
C. Provide safety guarantee. D. Prevent crashes intelligently.
11. Why do people research the deep ocean according to the last paragraph?
A. It is more complex than the moon.
B. It is seriously affected by humans.
C. To make sure of the depth of the ocean
D. To explore the less-known field of the planet.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了中国载人潜水器“奋斗者”号成功到达了地球最深的地点之一，深度是10909米，还介绍了“奋斗者”号的相关信息。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Extreme water pressure is the first challenge that requires dealing with during the exploration. At 10,000 meters down in the ocean, the submersible has to stand about 1,100 atmospheres of pressure, equal to 2,000 elephants stepping on a person’s back. (极端水压是勘探过程中需要处理的第一个挑战。在1万米深的海底，潜水器必须承受1100个大气压的压力，相当于2000头大象踩在一个人的背上)”可推知，提到“2000头大象”是想要把压力的程度生动地描述出来。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Its control system has reached the international frontier level.(其控制系统已达到国际前沿水平)”可知，控制系统的技术达到了世界先进水平。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“With the arms, Fendouzhe collected samples of ocean rocks, deep-sea living things and seabed sediments (沉淀物). (通过手臂，“奋斗者”收集了海洋岩石、深海生物和海床沉积物的样本)”可知，“手臂”可以收集海洋的样品。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Deep down in the ocean are unusual creatures, strange environments and impressive geological wonders, yet humanity knows less about the ocean floor than about the far side of the moon. These samples and data collected from the deep ocean can be used for geological and biological research, as well as study the human impact on the planet. (在海洋深处有不寻常的生物，奇怪的环境和令人印象深刻的地质奇观，然而人类对海底的了解还不如对月球背面的了解。这些从深海收集的样本和数据可用于地质和生物研究，以及研究人类对地球的影响)”可推知，人们研究深海是想探索地球上鲜为人知的领域。故选D项。

Prince William, second in line to the British throne, gave his first TED Talk on Saturday to launch his Earthshot Prize, a competition that will award five £ 1 million prize money every year for the next decade to those who can come up with solutions to environmental problems.
Any person, group or organization around the world is qualified, and any suggestion is welcome, so long as it is applicable globally. It could be a new technology, a new approach, a new governmental policy or any other ideas toward five environmental goals -fixing the climate, purifying the air, protecting nature, cleaning oceans and handling waste.
"Earthshot" was inspired by John F. Kennedy's "Moonshot," an ambitious 1961 mission to get a man on the moon within a decade. The purpose of the prize is partly to arouse excitement and offer what Prince William called “a bit of catalyst, a bit of hope, a bit of positivity" at a time when the world needs. The money will come from donors around the world. The prize committee includes many celebrities.
Prince William has environmental activism in his blue blood. Both his grandfather, and his father Prince Charles were active environmentalists. Prince William acknowledged his heritage by saying he had always listened, learned and believed what they were saying about the environment. Besides speaking wise words, he also puts forward a good prize. Over a million pounds is significantly more than a Nobel Prize and should inspire some serious and creative thinking about the difficulties of Planet Earth. Unlike the Nobel Prize money, the Earthshot money is supposed to be spent on the winning project. “If we achieve these goals, by 2030 our lives won't be worse, and we won't have to sacrifice everything we enjoy. Instead, the way we live will be healthier, cleaner, smarter, and better for all of us," he said.
12. What can be learned about The Earth shot Prize?
A. It will be awarded to Britons.
B. It aims to solve social problems.
C. It is named after a moon mission.
D. It offers £ 50 million in total.
13. A person can win the prize for_________.
A. a method to monitor sea levels
B. a new technology to forecast the weather
C. a new approach to recycling the waste
D. a local government policy to ban fishing
14. What does the underlined word "catalyst" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Encouragement. B. Alarm. C. Challenge. D. Surprise.
15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Earthshot Prize equals Nobel Prize.
B. Planet Earth will be cleaned by 2030.
C. Prince William only talks the talk.
D. Prince William is influenced by his family.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】

【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“The purpose of the prize is partly to arouse excitement and offer what Prince William called “a bit of catalyst, a bit of hope, a bit of positivity" at a time when the world needs. (设立该奖项的部分目的是在这个世界需要的时候激起人们的兴奋，并提供威廉王子所说的“一点catalyst，一点希望，一点积极性”)”可知，catalyst与hope(希望)，positivity(积极性)并列，其词性与含义都要与它们相近，表达正向的感觉，结合选项意思，A. 鼓励；B. 警告；C. 挑战；D. 惊喜，惊讶。最符合要求的是A项“鼓励”。故选A项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Both his grandfather, and his father Prince Charles were active environmentalists. Prince William acknowledged his heritage by saying he had always listened, learned and believed what they were saying about the environment. (他的祖父和父亲查尔斯王子都是积极的环保主义者。威廉王子承认自己的传统，他说他一直在倾听、学习和相信他们对环境的看法)”可知，威廉王子重视环保的思想是受到了他的家人的影响。故选D项。

（1） 理顺事件的发生、经过和结局。记叙文多数是按事情的发展顺序进行叙述的，理清文章的发展顺序才能把握文章的主脉。因此，先要理清人物间的关系及各自所作的事情，这样做题时可以再一次从时间上把握故事的进程。
（2） 读好短文首句，琢磨文章内容。这是做记叙文完形填空最重要的一步。完形填空首句一般不设空，是完整的一句话，信息就从这里开始，他暗示或告诉读者下文将会说什么。正确的利用首句信息对于把握答案的方向是极其重要和有效的。
（3） 读懂作者的态度。分析全文弄清作者是否一直用某种态度叙述某件事情，正确把握反映作者情感的关键词。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了一群大象进入云南省的野象谷，同时对这些象群以及人们对野生大象的保护工作进行描述。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意： 2020年，一群野象向北行进数月，2021年被发现进入云南省的野象谷。spot sb. doing发现某人正在做，本句为被动形式：sb be spotted doing sth所以此处用现在分词做主语补足语，故填entering。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：国家林业和草原管理局亚洲象研究中心主任陈飞说: “象群中的成年象和幼象都很健康。”空处做Chen Fei的同位语，应用名词单数director，表示一种“主任”这一职位，故填director。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：象群仍然有14个成员，但陈说，可能包括一些新成员，因为这个象群可能接触到了沿途中的其他组象群。动词came应用副词来修饰，副词possibly意为“可能”，故填possibly。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：观察者通常根据多年经验和大象身上的一些特征来辨认不同的象群。表示“基于；以......为基础”应用be based on，所以此处应用过去分词based做状语，故填based。
【45题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：云南是中国唯一发现野生亚洲象的地方。空处是where从句的谓语，句子描述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时，且主语wild Asian elephants和动词find是被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动，主语是复数，故填are found。
【46题详解】
考查定语从句。句意： 亚洲象被列入国际自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名单，在中国是一级保护动物，与我们可爱的大熊猫地位相同。“______is included on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species as “endangered””是非限定性定语从句，先行词是The Asian elephant，指物，在定语从句中做主语，应用关系代词which来引导，故填which。
【47题详解】
考查代词。句意： 亚洲象被列入国际自然保护联盟濒危物种红色名单，在中国是一级保护动物，与我们可爱的大熊猫保护等级相同。空处表示“我们的大熊猫”应用形容词词性物主代词our来修饰，故填our。
【48题详解】
考查冠词。句意：云南已建成11个自然保护区，总面积41.46万公顷，几乎是上世纪80年代的两倍。此处是特指，指的是20世纪80年代的自然保护区数量，应用定冠词the来修饰，故填the。
【49题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：该省还试用了大象食堂来解决人象冲突问题。此处表示目的，应用不定式做目的状语，故填to solve。
【50题详解】

Dear Tom,
How are you getting along? I don’t think this is a good idea to travel a lot and visit as many place as possible. Last July Bell paid a visit on Europe. Europe was very beautiful, but his holiday wasn’t very nicely. He visited several countries, and was in each of the countries for only three days. He visited a good many places of interest, but was always in hurry. Though he returned from Europe, he was very tired. So I suggest that you spent your holiday in a different way. We had better travel with a friend to one country and to visit only one city at a time. You’ll be able to have a good time.
Yours sincerely,
John
【答案】place→places
this→it
on→to
was→is
nicely→nice
in后面加上a
Though→When/As/After
spent→spend
We→You
去掉to
【解析】
【分析】本文是一封信，在信中作者提到了自己的建议：去旅行时，不要一次去很多地方，要一次去一个国家旅行，或者只去一个城市。这样会玩的很开心，又不觉得很累。
【详解】第一处：考查名词。句意：我认为做太多旅行和参观尽可能多的地方这不是一个好主意。many许多，后跟可数名词的复数形式，故答案为place→places.
第二处：考查代词。句意：我认为做太多旅行和参观尽可能多的地方这不是一个好主意。这里是句式：It is +形容词或名词+to do 做某事是怎样的。It是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。故答案为this→it.
第三处：考查介词。句意：上个七月Bell去欧洲参观。短语pay a visit to+某地“去某地参观”。故答案为on→to.
第四处：考查动词时态。句意：欧洲很漂亮，但是他的假期过得不太好。这里叙述的是欧洲现在也很漂亮，所以应该用一般现在时，句子的主语是第三人称单数，所以用is故答案为was→is.
第五处：考查形容词。句意：欧洲很漂亮，但是他的假期过得不太好。wasn’t后应该用形容词，very副词，来修饰形容词nice，nice是形容词“好的”，nicely是副词。故答案为nicely→nice.
第六处：考查冠词。句意：他参观了许多名胜古迹，但总是匆匆忙忙。短语in a hurry匆忙。故答案为in后面加上a.
第七处：考查连词。句意：当他从欧洲回来，他很累。Though尽管；累发生在回来后，或者在回来的时候。When/As当……时候/After在……之后。故答案为Though→When/As/After.
第八处：考查虚拟语气。句意：所以我建议你用一种不同的方式度过你的假期。suggest当“建议”时，后面的宾语从句的谓语动词用should+动词原形，或省略should。故答案为spent→spend.
第九处：考查代词。句意：你最好和朋友一起去一个国家旅行，一次只去一个城市。你会玩得很开心的。根据前一句So I suggest that you spent your holiday in a different way.向你提建议，所以后句的主语应该是you。故答案为We→You.
第十处： 考查固定搭配。句意：你最好和朋友一起去一个国家旅行，一次只去一个城市。你会玩得很开心的。had better+动词原形，这里的visit与前面的travel是并列的，所以必须去掉to，故答案为去掉to.
