Grass-pwered gas is set t heat thusands f hmes fr the first time in the cming weeks. Energy firm Ectricity is expected t begin supplying gas t 5,300 hmes frm its plant near Reading thrugh the distributin cmpany Suthern Gas Netwrks in April. Research has estimated that the gas can reduce greenhuse gas (GHG) release by nearly 90 percent. It is hped that the plan can be expanded t supply fuel t mre hmes arund the cuntry.
The £11 millin plant uses bacteria t break dwn grasses and herbs, which absrb CO2 while grwing, in certain cntainers. This prduces bigas which is then upgraded t bimethane (生物甲烷) fr use in the gas netwrk. An rganic fertiliser, which is intended t help grw mre grass, is als prduced.
Ectricity wner Dale Vince hpes t expand acrss the cuntry, building plants which reduce the use f cnventinal fuels while aviding damage t the envirnment, and bst energy security.
Green gas has previusly been made frm fd waste r “high-energy” crps such as crn, but bth face sustainability issues and prblems with a lack f size. “Our mix f grass and herbs makes carbn neutral (中性的) gas, pulling carbn ut f the atmsphere,” said Mr. Vince. “It’s a cycle f carbn rather than net zer release.”
Asked abut Ectricity’s bimethane prject, a Department fr Energy Security and Net Zer
spkesman said: “Initiatives like this shw hw the UK is leading in the develpment f innvatins in green technlgies that can help increase ur energy security, tackle climate change and bring dwn peple’s bills.”
A spkesman fr Suthern Gas Netwrks said: “We’ve partnered with Ectricity t deliver the bimethane t a prject at a site in Farley Hill near Reading. The prject will supply 5,300 nearby prperties with renewable green gas fr heat and pwer, helping t reduce each husehld’s annual carbn release by abut 2.2 tnnes.”
28. What is the feature f the gas frm Ectricity’s plant?
A. It is ec-friendly.
B. It is cst-effective.
C. It is free f carbn.
D. It is easy t prduce.
29. Which aspect f the plant is mainly talked abut in paragraph 2?
A. Its financial state.B. Its technical prcess.
C. Its expected utcme.D. Its breakdwn system.
30. What is the disadvantage f previus green gas?
A. Insufficient security.
B. Cntributin t fd waste.
C. Dependence n ld fuels.
D. Unsustainable develpment.
31. Why are the spkesmen’s wrds cited in the last tw paragraphs?
A. T prve the prject’s success.
B. T emphasize the brad supprt.
C. T explain the prject’s ptential.
D. T discuss envirnmental benefits.

Are yu a lgical thinker, r wuld yu say that yu’re mre free-spirited and artistic? If yu’re the frmer, smebdy’s prbably tld yu at sme pint that yu’re a left-brained persn, and if yu’re the latter, right-brained. The idea that the right half f the brain is the creative half and the left half is the analytical half and that ur individual characteristics are determined by which half is dminant is widespread in ppular psychlgy. Hwever, this idea is a fictin.
Althugh we all bviusly have different persnalities and talents, there’s n reasn t believe these differences can be explained by the dminance f ne half f the brain ver the ther half. Recent research using brain imaging technlgy hasn’t fund any evidence f hemispheric (脑半球的) dminance. Math, fr example, requires lgical thught and, thus, is generally said t be cnnected with the left brain. But mathematics invlves a highly creative effrt in additin t being a lgical ne. S wuld a gifted mathematician be a right-brained r a left-brained persn?
If there’s n evidence fr the fictin f right-brained and left-brained peple, why d s many peple accept it? Perhaps it just makes intuitive (直觉的) sense that peple’s brains wuld be dminant n ne side r the ther just as their hands, feet, r eyes are. It may als have smething t d with ur seemingly unlimited appetite that allws us t srt urselves (and ur friends) int “types” based n ur emtinal and intellectual characteristics.
When peple are ffered general descriptive statements that are presented as individualized descriptins f their wn persnalities, they tend t accept them as meaningful and true, especially if the statements are psitive. The “insights” they generate are bth universal and cngenial. After all, wh wuld reject a descriptin f themselves as “artistic and creative” r “reasnable and analytical”? The fictin is ppular, in the end, because it gives us a “scientific” way t talk abut ur favrite subject — urselves.
32. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. A free-spirited artist is a right-handed persn.
B. The left half f the brain deals with analytical wrk.
C. Different persnalities are determined by the brain.
D. The idea f which half f the brain is dminant is a fictin.
33. Which is a pssible reasn fr peple believing left-brained r right-brained dminance?
A. Rles f different brain regins.
B. Distinctins between different peple.
C. The tendency t classify peple.
D. The cnclusin frm daily phenmena.
34. What des the underlined wrd “cngenial” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Reasnable.B. Accurate.
C. Randm.D. Pleasing.
35. What is the best title fr the text?
A. The Science f Different Persnalities
B. The Truth Behind Hemispheric Dminance
C. Links Between the Brain and Characters
D. Ways t Tell Right-brained and Left-brained Peple

Recent research using brain imaging technlgy hasn’t fund any evidence f hemispheric (脑半球的) dminance.”可知，哪个半脑占主导地位的观点是虚构的，没有根据的。故选D。
33. C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It may als have smething t d with ur seemingly unlimited appetite that allws us t srt urselves (and ur friends) int ‘types’”可知，人们相信这一错误的观念可能是因为我们倾向于将自己和他人分类。故选C。
34. D 词义猜测题。画线词前提到，人们收到一般性描述的评价，且评价表现为对他们性格的个性化描述时，他们往往会将评价视为有意义且真实的，尤其当评价是正面的时候。画线词所在句与上文呼应，“general”对应“universal”，“psitive”对应“cngenial”。画线词后提到谁会拒绝将自己描述为“有艺术性和创造力”或“理性且具分析力”呢。综合以上分析可知，“cngenial insights”应是人们不会拒绝的且令人高兴的见解，D项“令人愉快的”可解释画线词含义。故选D。
35. B 标题概括题。第一段通过提问引入广泛流行的观点，即大脑的左右半球分别主导分析性和创造性思维，性格由优势半脑决定，并指出这是一个虚构的说法；第二段引用最近的脑成像技术研究并以数学为例驳斥这种流行观点；第三段解释这种流行观点被广泛接受的原因；第四段阐述人们接受该观点的心理机制。综合各段大意可知，文章的主旨是揭示和驳斥大脑的左右半球分别主导分析性和创造性思维，性格由优势半脑决定这种观点，并探讨其流行的深层原因。B项“关于脑半球主导的真相”既暗含对左右脑主导不同思维这一观点的否定，又能包含对此的一种解释，概括了文章大意，适合作文章标题。故选B。
第二节
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几个帮助人们欣赏现代艺术作品的技巧。
36. A 根据第二段首句可知，本段介绍的是要仔细观察现代艺术作品并理解艺术家的意图。空前提到现代艺术作品往往包含只有仔细观察才能发现的隐藏意义和象征，要留意艺术作品中使用的颜色、形状及神韵。结合段落主旨可知，空处内容应说明留意这些东西对理解艺术家意图的积极作用，A项“它们都在艺术家要传达的信息中发挥着作用”符合语境。A项中的“They”指代空前的“the clrs, shapes, and textures (神韵)”。故选A。
37. D 空后的“This”表明空处内容应说明其指代对象。空前提到要了解创作艺术作品的艺术家，空后提到这将使你更深入地了解他们的作品及其创作背景。据此可知，空处应说明了解艺术家的具体做法或行动，D项“了解他们的背景、影响和创作过程”符合语境。故选D。
38. G 空前提到解读现代艺术是一个非常主观的过程，许多个人和文化因素会影响你的感知和理解。空后举例说明，了解艺术作品的背景能提供重要线索，帮助你进行解读。由此可知，空处内容应与上文构成转折关系，说明尽管对艺术的解读会受到个人、文化等因素的影响，但还是有通用的方法可以助力你的解读。G项“然而，一些通用的原则可以指导你理解（艺术作品）”与空前内容形成转折，且能总领空后内容，与之衔接紧密，符合语境。故选G。
39. F 空处位于段首，应是段落主旨句。根据空后内容可知，你需要在艺术作品中找到能让你产生共鸣的意义和重要性。这种联系是主观的和个人的。要识别艺术作品在你内心唤起的情感、记忆或经历。由此可知，本段内容侧重于个人与作品之间的联系，故F项“此外，与艺术作品建立个人联系也很重要”符合语境。空后的“resnates with (引起共鸣) yu”“This cnnectin is subjective and persnal”与F项中的“a persnal cnnectin t the artwrk”相呼应。故选F。
40. B 空前问句提到：但是如果你很难独自欣赏现代艺术作品，该怎么办？因此空处应是对此的回答。再结合空后提到的这些专业人士可以指导你如何欣赏艺术作品，理解它的意义等可知，空处应是在说向专业人士寻求帮助。B项“寻求艺术顾问或咨询师的帮助”与上下文衔接紧密，符合语境。空后的“These prfessinals”与B项中的“an art advisr r cnsultant”相呼应；空后的“guide”“help”与B项中的“help”相呼应。故选B。

本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的一次数字脱瘾经历及其从中获得的感悟。

53. A 考查动词词义辨析。根据空前的“returning frm vacatin”和空后的“an ccasin t d scial media detx”可知，此处说的是作者之后的行动，她决定每周安排一次社交媒体脱瘾的机会。schedule“安排，为……安排时间”，符合语境。recrd“记录”；enter“登记，进入”；cmplete“完成，结束”。故选A。

第二节
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国竹编艺术的历史、文化意义以及对现代社会和国际合作的影响。
56. listed 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处所在部分是句子主语“The art”的后置定语，list“把……列入一览表”与“The art”是逻辑上的动宾关系，此处应用过去分词作定语。故填listed。
57. reflects 考查时态和主谓一致。中国的竹编艺术是一项在文化发展和经济建设中具有重大意义的国家级非物质文化遗产，体现了中华民族对美的不懈追求与创造，以及在使用竹子方面的高超智慧。句子主干是“The art _____ (reflect) the Chinese natin’s cnstant pursuit and creatin f beauty and the high wisdm”，主语是“The art”，谓语动词应用第三人称单数；此处陈述客观情况，应用一般现在时。故填reflects。
58. using 考查非谓语动词。空处作介词in的宾语，应用动词-ing形式。故填using。
59. necessities 考查名词复数。随着社会文明的发展，竹编艺术也在不断创新，从制作竹篮和家具等日常必需品，发展到绘画和书法。根据空前的介词“f”和形容词“daily”可判断此处应用名词。necessity“必需的事物，必需品”是可数名词，再结合空前无限定词及空后的列举“such as bamb baskets and furniture”可知，此处应用名词复数。故填necessities。
60. by 考查介词。根据语境可知，此处表示手工制作的竹制品。by hand“手工”，是固定搭配。故填by。
61. a 考查冠词。手工制作的竹制品是古代中国家庭物品，由于它们具有历史感和环保特性，因此它们已成为现代家居的必备之物。系动词“becme”后的“must-have”是名词。系动词和单数可数名词之间有一个无提示词设空时，优先考虑填冠词。结合语境可知，此处是泛指。故填a。
62. changeable 考查词性转换。此处表示它们的形状多变，空处在is后作表语，应用形容词。changeable“可变的，易变的，多变的”。故填changeable。
63. which 考查定语从句。它们的形状多变，装饰性特征形态丰富，充满了艺术性，这为人们提供了独特的美学体验，并使它们在海外市场广受欢迎。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，且在从句中作主语，指代前面句子的内容。故填which。
64. training 考查词性转换。此处表示“通过提供培训课”，ffering后的部分作宾语，因此空处作定语修饰curses。此处用train的名词形式training，training curse“培训课”。故填training。
65. t be built 考查非谓语动词和动词的语态。be expected t d sth.是固定用法，空处应用不定式；又因为build与center之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，应用不定式的被动语态。故填t be built。
