Abandned electrnics are piling up fast. Sme e-waste is relatively large — ld phnes and air cnditiners, fr instance. Other e-waste is nt s nticeable, such as envirnment sensrs, smart labels that cntain batteries and ther equipment. It’s these small batteries that are big prblems. Nbdy really pays attentin t where they end up.
Sme researchers frm Switzerland are wrking t address this prblem. Their new study in Scientific Reprts describes a water-activated paper battery develped frm envirnmentally friendly materials that culd eventually present a sustainable alternative t the mre harmful batteries cmmn in lw-pwer devices.
The paper battery has the same key cmpnents as standard batteries but packages them differently. Sustainable materials were an essential requirement fr the researchers, wh cnsidered nly harmless and sufficient cmpnents t create their device. “We were fairly cnfident we wuld have smething that wuld wrk in the end, but develping these materials and systems is highly cmplicated,” says Gustav Nyström, head f the researchers, wh tried hundreds f frmulatins (配方) fr the battery cmpnents befre their final success.
When the paper is dry, the battery is shelf-stable. Add just a cuple f drps f water, hwever, the battery activates within 20 secnds. The new battery’s perating perfrmance declines as the paper dries. When the scientists rewet the paper during testing, the battery regained functinality and lasted an hur befre beginning t dry ut again.
Althugh the researchers demnstrated that their battery culd pwer an alarm clck, dispsable paper batteries are unlikely t replace standard batteries n stre shelves. Hwever, Nyström predicts a future where these batteries are widely used. He says he is in cntact with ptential industry partners and believes these batteries culd make their way int prducts within the next tw t five years.
8. What can we learn abut the paper battery researching prcess?
A. It was full f challenges.B. It differed frm a standard ne.
C. It needed lts f imprvements.D. It built peple’s faith in researchers.
9. What happens t the paper battery when it is dry?
A. It begins t functin sn.B. It usually lasts an hur.
C. It reaches it maximum effect.D. It decreases in efficiency.
10. What des Nyström think f their inventin?
A. It has been widely used.
B. It will raise uncertainties.
C. Its future lks prmising.
D. Its prductin is n the rise.
11. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. E-waste Prblem SlvedB. Sustainable Battery Invented
C. Abandned Electrnics RecycledD. New Materials Fund fr New Battery

D
The lack f smething we cnsider vital, such as time r fd, can pwerfully shape ur thinking and behavir. Take mney, fr example, when peple play a game that makes sme players suddenly wealthier r prer, thse wh lse mney start making decisins that result in their being better ff nw but wrse ff later. One ptential explanatin fr this tendency is that shrtage f smething is mentally challenging. Nt having enugh f what we need becmes a distractin that makes it harder fr us t fcus and plan.
In recent wrk, hwever, we fund that peple react t water shrtage very differently than they d t ther shrtages. Peple in places in shrt f water think mre abut the lng term. Wrrying abut water shrtage led t better planning and less wasteful behavir - nt nly with water but with ther resurces, t.
In ne experiment, we brught 211 cllege students t the lab and asked sme f them t read an article that predicted the wrst “water shrtage in 1,200 years.” Others read a mre upbeat article abut hw climate change means mre rain and therefre enugh water. The rest f the students cmpleted the study withut reading an article.
We then asked the students hw imprtant it was t save resurces and think abut the lng term. Participants wh read abut a serius shrtage agreed mre with statements like “Peple shuld live fr the future” and “There are things I resist buying tday s I can save fr tmrrw.” Participants reading the ther article were pushed in the ppsite directin. They were mre likely t supprt living fr the present and cared less abut saving mney and ther resurces when cmpared with thse wh didn’t read abut climate change.
Our wrk suggests that as many places dry up, glbal warming culd reshape hw peple think, pushing entire cmmunities tward mre cautius, future-riented behavir. That may ffer a ray f hpe amid the threat f climate change. Water shrtage culd be uniquely pwerful mtivatin fr us t prepare fr and respnd t a warmer wrld.
12. Why des the authr use mney as an example?
A. T pint ut its shrtage.
B. T explain its rle in games.
C. T prve its imprtance t peple.
D. T stress its impact n decisin-making.
13. What des the authr intend t d in paragraph 2?
A. Give backgrund infrmatin.
B. Cmpare tw different pinins.
C. Prvide findings f their research.
D. Explain different peple’s behavirs
14. What des the underlined wrd “upbeat” in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
A. Psitive.B. Interesting.C. Thughtful.D. Influential.
15. What implicatin des the authr think their study has?
A. We shuld save mney fr ur future.
B. Water shrtage may stimulate actins.
C. We shuld prepare fr climate change.
D. Glbal warming benefits us in sme ways.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了缺乏某些重要资源（如金钱、食物、水）如何影响人们的思维和行为。文章强调，在全球变暖导致许多地方缺水的背景下，这种由缺水引发的更谨慎、面向未来的行为模式，或许能在气候变化带来的威胁中带来一丝希望，成为一种促使人们为更温暖的未来做好准备和行动的独特动力。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Take mney, fr example, when peple play a game that makes sme players suddenly wealthier r prer, thse wh lse mney start making decisins that result in their being better ff nw but wrse ff later. (以金钱为例，当人们参与一种游戏，使得某些玩家突然变得富有或变得贫穷时，那些输钱的玩家就会做出一些决定，这些决定虽然会让他们当下状况变好，但最终会让他们变得更糟。)”可知，作者举例说明金钱的缺乏会如何影响决策，即失去金钱的人会做出当下更好但长远更糟的决定。这强调了金钱缺乏对决策的影响。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“In recent wrk, hwever, we fund that peple react t water shrtage very differently than they d t ther shrtages. Peple in places in shrt f water think mre abut the lng term. (然而，在最近的研究中，我们发现人们对水资源短缺的反应与对其他类型的短缺的反应有着显著的不同。在水资源匮乏的地区，人们会更多地考虑长远问题。)”可知，这一段介绍了作者近期关于人们对水资源短缺反应的研究发现，即与其它短缺不同，缺水让人们更关注长远，并进行更好的规划和减少浪费。因此，作者在第二段的意图是提供他们研究的发现。故选C项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“In ne experiment, we brught 211 cllege students t the lab and asked sme f them t read an article that predicted the wrst “water shrtage in 1,200 years.” (在一项实验中，我们召集了 211 名大学生来到实验室，并要求其中一些人阅读一篇预测“未来 1200 年内将出现史上最严重水资源短缺”的文章。)”以及“Others read a mre upbeat article abut hw climate change means mre rain and therefre enugh water.(还有一些人则读到了一篇更为……的文章，文中提到气候变化意味着降雨量会增多，从而也就意味着会有充足的水资源。)”可知，“upbeat article”与预测“water shrtage in 1,200 years”的文章形成对比。既然一篇是关于严重缺水的，那么另一篇关于“更多雨水和足够的水”的文章应该是比较积极、乐观的。因此，“upbeat”意为“积极的，乐观的”。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Our wrk suggests that as many places dry up, glbal warming culd reshape hw peple think, pushing entire cmmunities tward mre cautius, future-riented behavir. That may ffer a ray f hpe amid the threat f climate change. Water shrtage culd be uniquely pwerful mtivatin fr us t prepare fr and respnd t a warmer wrld.( 我们的研究表明，随着越来越多的地区出现干旱，全球变暖可能会改变人们的思维方式，促使整个社区采取更为谨慎、面向未来的行动方式。这在气候变化带来的威胁面前或许能带来一丝希望。水资源短缺可能会成为我们为一个更温暖的世界做好准备并做出应对的独一无二的强大动力。)”可知，作者认为他们的研究表明，水资源短缺作为一种独特的强大动力，可能促使（推动）人们采取更谨慎、面向未来的行为，这在全球气候变化的威胁下可能带来希望，是一种应对变暖世界的动力。因此，研究的启示是水资源短缺可能激发（刺激）行动。故选B项。

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章指出老年人数字技术使用现状，强调其掌握数字技术对融入社会的重要性及相关措施。
【16题详解】
由上文“Almst ne-third f adults aged 65 and lder have never used the half need smene else’s help t set up a new digital device.(65岁及以上的成年人中，近三分之一从未使用过互联网，一半人家里没有网络。在使用互联网的人中，近一半需要他人帮助来设置新数字设备。)”可知，此处呈现老年人数字技术使用的现状。空格后提到“If we d nt prvide technlgy access and training t lder adults, we shut them ut frm sciety, wrsening the lneliness amng the elderly, which has been assciated with depressin, functinal decline, and death.(如果我们不为老年人提供技术获取和培训，我们就会把他们排除在社会之外，加剧老年人的孤独感，这与抑郁症、功能衰退和死亡有关。)”，这里强调数字技术对老年人融入社会的重要性。G项Mastering digital technlgy is a key aspect f senir citizens’ participatin in sciety.)掌握数字技术是老年人参与社会的关键方面。)既承接了上文老年人的技术困境，又引出后文“不提供技术支持的后果”，其中“participatin in sciety”与后文“shut them ut frm sciety”形成正反呼应。故选G项。
【17题详解】
上文提到“There is cncern abut digital technlgy use increasing islatin amng yunger ppulatins.(有人担心数字技术的使用会加剧年轻群体的孤立。)”，指出对年轻人的担忧。空格后“This is especially true fr thse wh live far away frm family r have lst the lved nes they relied n fr scial supprt in their yunger years.(对于那些远离家人或失去了年轻时赖以获得社会支持的亲人的人来说尤其如此。)”，转而说明数字技术对老年人的积极意义。F项Hwever, the cnnectin that is pssible nline can be valuable fr lder adults.(然而，在线连接对老年人可能极具价值。)用Hwever转折，将话题从年轻人转向老年人，“cnnectin nline”与后文“use nline tls t cnnect”直接呼应，符合上下文逻辑。故选F项。
【18题详解】
段落首句指出“We need prgrams t imprve lder adults’ use f technlgy and cnfidence in key digital skills.(我们需要项目来提升老年人的技术使用和对关键数字技能的信心。)”，这里强调需求。空格后“They als need t have tech supprt call lines tailred t lder adults less familiar with the Internet.(他们还需要为不太熟悉互联网的老年人量身定制技术支持电话线。)”，用als引出具体措施。E项Technlgy cmpanies shuld design devices specifically fr elders.(科技公司应专门为老年人设计设备。)与后文“tech supprt call lines”并列，同为提升老年人数字技能的具体方案，“design devices specifically”对应“tailred t lder adults”，形成逻辑上的并列递进。故选E项。
【19题详解】
上文提到“many lder adults express a lack f interest in technlgy.(许多老年人对技术缺乏兴趣。)”，说明现象。空格后“Apprpriate training can help t vercme these fears and generate interest.(适当的培训可帮助克服这些恐惧并激发兴趣。)”，提到“fears(恐惧)”这一原因。A项This prbably results frm a fear f it.(这可能源于对技术的恐惧。) 中“results frm a fear”与后文“vercme these fears”形成因果呼应，解释了老年人缺乏兴趣的原因，其中it指代前文technlgy。故选A项。
【20题详解】
空格位于文末，前文强调“With greater investment in prviding accessible devices and digital training, technlgy has the ptential t becme a pwerful tl fr reducing lneliness amng lder adults, empwering them t cnnect, create, and cntribute nline. (随着对提供无障碍设备和数字培训的更多投资，技术有可能成为减少老年人孤独感的有力工具，使他们能够在线连接、创造和贡献。)”，阐述技术对老年人的积极影响。C项As ne elder put it, “It’s time t catch up and jin the wrld.”(正如一位老人所说：“是时候赶上并融入世界了。”) 用老人的引言进一步佐证前文观点，“catch up and jin the wrld”与“cnnect, create, and cntribute nline”形成语义呼应，以具体实例收束全文，增强说服力。故选C项。
