In a glbal reprt f lake clur, researchers estimate that rughly ne-third f Earth’s lakes are blue. But, shuld average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees, sme f thse clear waters culd turn a cludy green r brwn, the Learn reprts in the Sept.28 Gephysical Research Letters.
The changing clurs culd change hw peple use thse waters and ffer clues abut the stability f lake ecsystems. Cmpared with blue lakes, green r brwn lakes have mre algae and rganic matter, says Xia Yang, a hydrlgist (水文专家) at Suthern Methdist University.
Lakes in places with average summer air temperatures that were belw 19° Celsius were mre likely t be blue than lakes with warmer summers. That’s because warmer water helps algae blm mre, which changes the prperties f the water.
Yang and clleagues used satellite phts frm 2013 t 2020 t analyze the clur f mre than 85, 000 lakes arund the wrld. Because strms and seasns can temprarily affect a lake’s clur, the researchers fcused n the mst frequent clur bserved fr each lake ver the seven-year perid. The researchers als created an interactive nline map that can be used t explre the clurs f these lakes. The apprach is “ super cl, ” the researchers say. These satellite data are “ just s pwerful. ”
If sme lakes d becme less blue, peple will prbably lse sme f the resurces they have cme t value, O’Reilly says, wh is an eclgist at Illinis State University. Lakes are ften used fr drinking water, fd r recreatin. If the water has mre algae, it culd be unappealing fr play r mre cstly t clean fr drinking. But the clur changes wuldn’t necessarily mean that the lakes are any less healthy. “Humans dn’t value lts f algae in a lake, but if yu’re a certain type f fish species, yu might be like ‘this is great,’ ” O’Reilly says.
28. What can we learn abut the lakes’ clur change accrding t the text?
A. It is caused by water pllutin.
B. It des harm t the grwth f algae.
C. It results frm the temperature increase.
D. It can disturb the stability f lake ecsystems.
29. Hw was the research cnducted?
A. By ding field investigatin.
B. By analyzing lng-term satellite data.
C. By researching previus studies.
D. By bserving the daily clur f the lakes.
30. Which wrd best describes O’Reilly’s attitude t the clur change?
A. Objective. B. Dubtful. C. Uncncerned. D. Favurable.
31. What’s the authr’s purpse in writing the text?
A. T call n peple t prtect lakes.
B. T intrduce a new research methd.
C. T prvide slutins t lakes’ clur change.
D. T present the utcme f a research.

There’s a cntinuing cntrversy ver whether electric vehicles shuld prduce sunds t let the blind and ther pedestrians knw they’re n the scene. Sme think thse sunds shuld be standardized—like the “beep, beep, beep” f heavy machinery backing up, s yu’ll think " smething heavy is cming this way" when yu hear it—and sme think any sund will d.
This is a serius subject. Plug-in hybrid cars (插电式混合动力车) and battery electric vehicles are super-quiet, and a study at the University f Califrnia, Riverside cncludes that peple listening t recrdings n headphnes can hear a regular gas car cming frm 28 feet away, but a hybrid in battery mde nly when it’s 7 feet away.
In respnse, the Eurpean Unin has put new rules int play: all new electric vehicle mdels must have a sund-prducing device, which sunds like a traditinal engine. Starting in 2021,all new electric vehicles f any mdel have had the Acustic Vehicle Alerting System r AVAS. That sund cmes int play when the car is traveling backwards r when it’s traveling at less than 12 miles an hur - speeds at which cars are mre likely t be mixing with pedestrians.
That’s a nice start, say representatives fr the blind, but mre is needed." We’re calling n the gvernment t take this annuncement further by requiring AVAS n all existing electric and hybrid vehicles and ensuring drivers have them switched n," Jhn Welsman, guide dg wner and Guide Dgs staff member, said in a statement.
Drivers in mst eases have the ability t shut ff the device when needed. My guess is that they will eventually be standardized s yur mind will autmatically register “electric car” when yu hear it. And that’s prbably a gd thing t reduce the mayhem(混乱)n the rads.
32. Hw des the authr shw “electric cars are quiet” in Paragraph 2?
A. By making a classificatin.B. By making a cmparisn.
C. By analyzing cause and effect.D. By setting dwn general rules.
33. What can be learned abut the AVAS?
A. It was develped by the Eurpean Unin.
B. It was designed fr inexperienced drivers.
C. It cnsists f a sund-prducing device and an engine.
D. It warns pedestrians f the cming f an electric car.
34. What des Jhn Welsman think f the new rules?
A. They are t strict fr drivers. B. They are t cmplex t fllw.
C. They need further imprvement.D. They hardly allw fr any flexibility.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title f the passage?
A. Prblems with electric cars
B. A new type f electric car n sale
C. Electric cars with a standardized sund-prducing device
D. Quiet electric cars

22.C 【解析]细节理解题。由题干中的Zambujeira d Mar,可将答案定位至Zambujeira d Mar部分,由此部分中的“Fr five days in August,ne f Prtugal’s biggest yuth music festivals,MEO Sudeste,is held here.”可知,每年8月份， Zambujeira dMar都会举办音乐节,故选C项。

26. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“It takes beneficiaries wh have suffered physical r psychlgical injuries in challenges arund the wrld, allwing them t access the healing pwer f nature.(它接受在世界各地的挑战中遭受身体或心理伤害的受益者,使他们能够获得大自然的治愈力量。)”可知,Jacksn 创办M2M是为了帮助有类似经历的人。故选D。

C
28. C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But,shuld average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees,sme f thse clear waters culd turn a cludy green r brwn(但是,如果夏季平均气温上升几度,一些清澈的湖水可能会变成暗绿色或棕色)”可知,湖水颜色的改变是由于湖水温度的升高,故选C。
29. B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Yang and clleagues used satellite phts frm 2013 t 2020 t analyze the clur f mre than 85,000 lakes arund the wrld. Because strms and seasns can temprarily affect a lake's clur, the researchers fcused n the mst frequent clur bserved fr each lake ver the seven-year perid. The researchers als created an interactive nline map that can be used t explre the clurs f these lakes.(杨和他的同事利用从2013年到2020年的卫星照片分析了世界上超过85000个湖泊的颜色。由于风暴和季节可以暂时影响湖泊的颜色,研究人员将重点放在七年间观察到的每个湖泊最常见的颜色上。研究人员还创建了一个互动的在线地图,可以用来探索这些湖泊的颜色。)”可知,在研究中,研究人员通过分析长达七年的卫星照片,进而得出了研究结果。故选B。
30. A 观点态度题。根据最后一段“If sme lakes d becme less blue, peple will prbably lse sme f the resurces they have cme t value, O'Reilly says, wh is an eclgist at Illinis State University.Lakes are ften used fr drinking water, fd r recreatin. If the water has mre algae, it culd be unappealing fr play r mre cstly t clean fr drinking. But the clur changes wuldn't necessarily mean that the lakes are any less healthy. ‘Humans dn't value lts f algae in a lake, but if yu're a certain type f fish species, yu might be like‘this is great,’’O'Reilly says.(奥莱利是伊利诺伊州立大学的生态学家,他说,如果一些湖泊的确变得不那么蓝了,人们可能会失去一些他们已经开始重视的资源。湖泊通常用于饮用水,食物或娱乐。如果水中有更多的藻类,那么在湖泊中娱乐就没有了吸引力,或者要获得清洁的饮用水的成本更高。但是颜色的变化并不意味着湖泊就不那么健康了。奥莱利说:‘人类并不看重湖中的大量藻类,但如果你是某种鱼类,你可能会说‘这真是太棒了，’’)”可知,在奥莱利看来,湖泊的颜色的变化未必就是一种灾难,要视情况而言。所以对于湖水颜色的变化,奥莱利的态度是客观的。故选A。
31. D 目的意图题。结合第一段“In a glbal reprt f lake clur,researchers estimate that rughly ne-third f Earth's lakes are blue. But, shuld average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees, sme f thse clear waters culd turn a cludy green r brwn,the Learn reprts in the Sept.28Gephysical Research Letters.(在一份全球湖泊颜色报告中,研究人员估计大约三分之一的地球湖泊是蓝色的。但是,如果夏季平均气温上升几度,那么一些清澈的海水可能会变成暗绿色或棕色， Learn 在9月28日的《地球物理研究通讯》中报道。)”可知,文章主要向人们介绍了一项研究的结果。故选D。
D
【短文大意】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了安静的楠电式混合动力车和绝电动汽车对行人可能会造成的危险以及应对措施。
32. B 推理判断题。 根据第二段第二句可知，插电式混合动
力车和纯电动汽车都非常安静，加州大学河滨分校的一项研究得出结论，人们戴着耳机听录音时可以听到28英尽尺开处的遭通燃油汽车，但退合动力车在电池想式下只有在7英尽开外时才熊听到。由此可知，作者通过对比人们戴着耳机听录音时可以听到燃油车和混合动力车的距离来表明电动车是安静的。
33、D 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，当汽车倒车或以低于每小时12英里的速度行驶时，这种声音就会响起——在这种速度下，汽车更有可能与行人相撞，也就是这种声音就会响起以警告行人电动车的到来。项分析
A项 它是由欧盟开发的，文章提到欧盟实施了新规则，是于偷换概念，故排除。
B项 它是为没有经验的司机设计的，文章没有提及，愚于无中生有，故排除。
C项 它由发声装置和发动机组成，它本来就是一个发声装置，故排除。
34.C 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句可知，导盲犬主人、导盲犬组织的工作人员Jhn Welsman在一份声明中说：“我们呼吁政府进一步推进这一声明，要求所有现有的电动和混合动力汽车都配备AVAS，并确保司机打开AVAS。”由此可知，Jhn Welsman呼吁政府进一步推进这w一声明，不仅要求电动汽车都配备AVAS，还确保司机打开AVAS，由此可知，他认为新规需要进行改进。
35. A 主旨大意题。根据第一段首句可知，关于电动汽车是
否应该发出声意让盲人和其他行人知道它们在场，一直在在争议。接着就声音问题展开论述，因为电动汽车相对安静，人们不容易察觉，有可能会对行人造成伤害，然后欧盟实施新规：所有新的电动汽车型号都必须有发声装置；接着用Jhn Welsman的话说明新规还有需要改进的地方，最后一段说明作者最后的猜想：装置最终会标准化，道路上的混乱情况很可能会减少。综合上述可知，本文主要介绍了电动车的问题。故选A。
