Researchers are lking int new ways t generate efficient phtvltaic energy (光伏能源) and fr this they have been inspired by the v-shaped psture f the Cabbage White butterfly (菜粉蝶).
Phtvltaic energy is the science behind slar pwer, where light is turned int electricity. It is a tw-step prcess. Step ne is a phtelectric effect, caused by sunlight. The secnd step is an electrchemical prcess, which generates an electric current.
T imprve the cllectin f sunlight, a research grup has been inspired by the resting psture f the Cabbage White butterfly. The species has a natural range acrss Eurpe, Asia, and Nrth Africa. T many farmers, the butterflies are regarded as a pest; t thers, they are pretty t lk at. T ne research grup the butterflies are an inspiratin.
The butterfly adpts a v-shape in rder t heat up its flight muscles befre taking ff. By creating slar panels (太陽能電池板) in this frmatin, scientists think that the quantity f pwer that a slar panel can prduce can be increased by arund 50 percent.
The Cabbage White butterfly is different t many ther butterflies in using the v-frmatin. On cludy days butterflies need t wait t receive enugh sunlight in rder t fly. Hwever, by using the v-psture, the Cabbage White butterfly is able t take in mre energy mre quickly than ther butterflies. In additin, the butterfly can reflect sunlight frm its wings, which allws its flight muscles t be warmed t an ideal temperature.
The new research was cnducted at the University f Exeter's Envirnment and Sustain --ability Institute (ESI) and the Centre fr Eclgy and Cnservatin.

Envelpe Budget
Frm McDnald’s t Snic, fast fd had a bad effect n my waistline and my budget. It was nthing t run t a drive-thrugh t pick up a cld drink r a quick bite t eat. It was s easy t use my card fr a small purchase. Fr me, I gt a lt f satisfactin frm fast fd.
One day I sat dwn and calculated that I was spending a surprising $40 a week n fast fd. This was a lt f iced cffee and hamburgers! Instead f reducing my guilty pleasures, I decided t give myself a strng budget t reduce my cnsumptin. Every Mnday I placed an envelpe with$20 in my purse. That was my fast fd budget fr the entire week. If there was anything left ver at the end f the week, it was mine t save r spend. If I spent all f the mney during the week, there were n mre fast fd stps that week.
The budget made me mre mindful f my purchases. Instead f purchasing a large drink frm Snic, I wuld purchase a small. It was still satisfying but nt nearly as pricey. Instead f eating a whle meal, I wuld pick the part that I actually wanted. Many days, the thught f hanging nt the mney fr a special purpse meant mre t me than the instant satisfactin f fast fd. I never really felt unhappy because it was a cnscius chice t spend r save with each purchase.
Envelpe budget kept me hnest. I had a clear idea hw much mney was spent each week n fast fd purchases. I started t bring my lunches mre ften t save mre mney fr the week. It was a fun challenge t see hw much I culd save every week.
Changing the way I spent n fast fd nt nly helped my budget, but imprved my weight. In the first mnth I was able t get rid f 5 punds by simply changing the way I apprached spending n fast fd. Nw I am mre likely t bring my lunch than t buy it. I am nt upset, but empwered t make psitive chices t imprve my life.
9. Accrding t Paragraph 1, the authr ______.
A. had n time t ck fr herselfB. was fnd f fast fd very much
C. lived with a small amunt f mneyD. gt sme benefits frm using her card
10. We can infer frm the last paragraph that ______.
A. envelpe budget is gd fr healthB. the budget means a pressure n life
C. it is unusual t make sme changesD. it is hard t enjy a healthy lifestyle
11. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Why the authr became addicted t fast fd.B. Why the authr tk envelpe budget seriusly.
C. Hw fast fd cntrlled the authr’s behavir.D. Hw envelpe budget changed the authr’s life.
The whle wrld knws them: actrs, singers, mdels, athletes and TV persnalities. If I use scial media, I get t familiar.
I have nthing against the entertainment industry and celebrities. The prblem is that by idlizing the entertainment industry s much, we smetimes cmpletely frget abut the things that are truly imprtant and that are changing ur wrld. Yu prbably knw wh Lenard DiCapri is—a very talented American actr and film prducer. But then yu prbably dn’t knw wh Cri Bargmann is. Bargmann is a scientist wh is uncvering the causes f Alzheimer’s and autism, which have been unknwn fr years.
What I think is wrng is that DiCapri’s net wrth is $260 millin dllars, while Bargmann’s is less than $l millin dllars. DiCapri is definitely talented and has wrked hard t give us gd films, but Bargmann is wrking fr smething that can save thusands f humans wh are suffering. And just because ur sciety prefers t idlize the entertainment industry instead f science, she gets paid much less than she deserves.
But if it wuld benefit the wrld t invest all f ur time and attentin tward scientists, why dn’t we make scientists ur new “celebrities”?
First f all, we like being entertained. We lve pretty faces and easy-t-digest infrmatin. It’s easier t care abut simple stuff rather than scientific, cmplicated things. Anther reasn is that mst scientists dn’t like being in the sptlight. They’ re mstly reserved and like t have privacy. They’ re busy peple, which explains why they haven’t attracted the media the same way that perfrmers have. Als, peple have free will and the right t be interested in whatever they want t be.
Hwever, studies have shwn that yung peple are mre interested in a scientific career as a result f COVID-19. The pandemic has als made knwn sme scientists wh have suddenly started appearing n TV and guiding us n hw t get prtected frm this deadly virus. Maybe that is the start f the develpment f a different pint f view which will be in favr f science fr future generatins.
12. Why des the authr mentin Lenard DiCapri and Cri Bargmann?
A. T intrduce the tpic.B. T give an example.
C. T ffer a definitin.D. T prpse a slutin.
13. Why are scientists nt as well-knwn as actrs?
A. Scientists get paid much less than actrs.
B. Peple are busy chsing what they like.
C. Scientists dn’t feel like being paid attentin t.
D. Peple prefer entertainment t cmplex science.
14. What des the wrd “that” underlined in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Studies make scientists knwn and accepted by the masses.
B. Yung peple want t change their jbs because f the pandemic.
C. Peple are attracted t science and scientists during a special time.
D. Mst scientists gradually becme willing t shw up in public light.
15. What’s the authr’s attitude tward entertainment stars?
A. Objective.B. Favrable.
C. Prejudiced.D. Indifferent.

【分析】這是一篇說明文。本文主要闡述了紐約公共交通系統(tǒng)擁有世界上最廣泛的公共藝術(shù)收藏,紐約地鐵被稱之為紐約的“地下藝術(shù)博物館”。
【1題詳解】
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段“Sme peple call it New Yrk’s “undergrund art museum”. It includes mre than 250 wrks f art.(有人稱之為紐約的“地下藝術(shù)博物館”,它包括250多件藝術(shù)品)”可推知,劃線詞“extensive”所在句子的意思是“它還擁有世界上最廣泛的公共藝術(shù)收藏之一,其中大部分收藏在城市街道下”,其中,劃線詞“extensive”的意思是“廣泛的”,與Wide意思接近。因此,最能解釋第一段中帶下劃線的“extensive”一詞的是C項“Wide.(寬的,寬泛的)”符合題意,故選C項。
【2題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Sme peple call it New Yrk’s “undergrund art museum”. It includes mre than 250 wrks f is a huge painting f the night sky n the ceiling f Grand Central Terminal. New Yrkers have been lking up at that artwrk fr 100 years.(有人稱之為紐約的“地下藝術(shù)博物館”。它包括250多件藝術(shù)品航站樓的中央大天花板上有一幅巨大的夜空畫。紐約人仰望這件藝術(shù)品已有100年了)”可知,紐約的地鐵收藏了很多藝術(shù)品,有人稱之為紐約的“地下藝術(shù)博物館。因此,紐約的地鐵叫“地下藝術(shù)博物館”的原因是A項“It shws many art cllectins.(它展示了許多藝術(shù)收藏品。)”符合題意,故選A項。
【3題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后“Fr the past 30 years, artists have been asked t make wrks that relate t city life r t the neighbrhd arund a train statin. There are castal scenes at statins near the Atlantic Ocean.(在過去的30年里,藝術(shù)家們被要求創(chuàng)作與城市生活或火車站周圍社區(qū)相關(guān)的作品。大西洋附近的車站有海岸景色。)”可知,在過去,藝術(shù)家們被要求創(chuàng)作與城市生活或火車站周圍社區(qū)相關(guān)的作品,大西洋附近的車站有海岸景色,可見,紐約地鐵工程與城市生活或地鐵附近的風(fēng)景相關(guān)。因此,紐約地鐵工程與城市生活或火車站周圍社區(qū)相關(guān)。因此,紐約地鐵工程與以下有關(guān)的是D項“The city life r nearby sights arund the subway. (城市生活或地鐵附近的風(fēng)景)”符合題意,故選D項。
【4題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“When I’m stressed, I lk at the subway art. I lve the clrs. (當(dāng)我感到壓力時,我會看地鐵藝術(shù)。我喜歡這些顏色)”可知,托尼·皮埃爾喜歡地鐵藝術(shù),他認(rèn)為這能緩解壓力,可見,他認(rèn)為地鐵藝術(shù)是很精彩的。因此,托尼·皮埃爾對地鐵藝術(shù)看法是B項“Wnderful(精彩的)”符合題意,故選B項。

Envelpe Budget
Frm McDnald’s t Snic, fast fd had a bad effect n my waistline and my budget. It was nthing t run t a drive-thrugh t pick up a cld drink r a quick bite t eat. It was s easy t use my card fr a small purchase. Fr me, I gt a lt f satisfactin frm fast fd.
One day I sat dwn and calculated that I was spending a surprising $40 a week n fast fd. This was a lt f iced cffee and hamburgers! Instead f reducing my guilty pleasures, I decided t give myself a strng budget t reduce my cnsumptin. Every Mnday I placed an envelpe with$20 in my purse. That was my fast fd budget fr the entire week. If there was anything left ver at the end f the week, it was mine t save r spend. If I spent all f the mney during the week, there were n mre fast fd stps that week.
The budget made me mre mindful f my purchases. Instead f purchasing a large drink frm Snic, I wuld purchase a small. It was still satisfying but nt nearly as pricey. Instead f eating a whle meal, I wuld pick the part that I actually wanted. Many days, the thught f hanging nt the mney fr a special purpse meant mre t me than the instant satisfactin f fast fd. I never really felt unhappy because it was a cnscius chice t spend r save with each purchase.
Envelpe budget kept me hnest. I had a clear idea hw much mney was spent each week n fast fd purchases. I started t bring my lunches mre ften t save mre mney fr the week. It was a fun challenge t see hw much I culd save every week.
Changing the way I spent n fast fd nt nly helped my budget, but imprved my weight. In the first mnth I was able t get rid f 5 punds by simply changing the way I apprached spending n fast fd. Nw I am mre likely t bring my lunch than t buy it. I am nt upset, but empwered t make psitive chices t imprve my life.

The whle wrld knws them: actrs, singers, mdels, athletes and TV persnalities. If I use scial media, I get t familiar.
I have nthing against the entertainment industry and celebrities. The prblem is that by idlizing the entertainment industry s much, we smetimes cmpletely frget abut the things that are truly imprtant and that are changing ur wrld. Yu prbably knw wh Lenard DiCapri is—a very talented American actr and film prducer. But then yu prbably dn’t knw wh Cri Bargmann is. Bargmann is a scientist wh is uncvering the causes f Alzheimer’s and autism, which have been unknwn fr years.
What I think is wrng is that DiCapri’s net wrth is $260 millin dllars, while Bargmann’s is less than $l millin dllars. DiCapri is definitely talented and has wrked hard t give us gd films, but Bargmann is wrking fr smething that can save thusands f humans wh are suffering. And just because ur sciety prefers t idlize the entertainment industry instead f science, she gets paid much less than she deserves.
But if it wuld benefit the wrld t invest all f ur time and attentin tward scientists, why dn’t we make scientists ur new “celebrities”?
First f all, we like being entertained. We lve pretty faces and easy-t-digest infrmatin. It’s easier t care abut simple stuff rather than scientific, cmplicated things. Anther reasn is that mst scientists dn’t like being in the sptlight. They’ re mstly reserved and like t have privacy. They’ re busy peple, which explains why they haven’t attracted the media the same way that perfrmers have. Als, peple have free will and the right t be interested in whatever they want t be.
Hwever, studies have shwn that yung peple are mre interested in a scientific career as a result f COVID-19. The pandemic has als made knwn sme scientists wh have suddenly started appearing n TV and guiding us n hw t get prtected frm this deadly virus. Maybe that is the start f the develpment f a different pint f view which will be in favr f science fr future generatins.
12. Why des the authr mentin Lenard DiCapri and Cri Bargmann?
A. T intrduce the tpic.B. T give an example.
C. T ffer a definitin.D. T prpse a slutin.
13. Why are scientists nt as well-knwn as actrs?
A Scientists get paid much less than actrs.
B. Peple are busy chsing what they like.
C. Scientists dn’t feel like being paid attentin t.
D. Peple prefer entertainment t cmplex science.
14. What des the wrd “that” underlined in the last paragraph refer t?
A. Studies make scientists knwn and accepted by the masses.
B. Yung peple want t change their jbs because f the pandemic.
C. Peple are attracted t science and scientists during a special time.
D. Mst scientists gradually becme willing t shw up in public light.

【解析】
【分析】這是一篇議論文。文章講述了中國年輕人中很流行的“打卡式”旅游,并由淺入深地分析了這種現(xiàn)象出現(xiàn)的原因。
【36題詳解】
考查冠詞。句意:洪崖洞是一處位于重慶市的吊腳樓群。the city f為固定短語,意為“……市/城”,其前要用定冠詞the。故填the。
【37題詳解】
考查時態(tài)。句意:自2006年興建以來,酒吧、飯店和金色的霓虹燈光成了極受歡迎的特色。分析句子可知,有since引導(dǎo)的時間從句,要用現(xiàn)在完成時。故填have been。
【38題詳解】
考查副詞。句意:去年游客數(shù)量激增。分析句子可知,sharp在這里修飾謂語動詞increased,要用副詞形式。故填sharply。
【39題詳解】
考查定語從句。句意:抖音,其目標(biāo)并非產(chǎn)出制作精良的視頻或者好看的照片。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,空白處前后句結(jié)構(gòu)完整,考慮定語從句,Duyin是先行詞,aim與Duyin之間有從屬關(guān)系,要用whse作定語。故填whse。
【40題詳解】
考查非謂語動詞。句意:而僅僅是展示出你也去過那些熱門的地方。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,這里與前句不定式t prduce并列,也要用動詞不定式。故填t shw。
【41題詳解】
考查名詞。句意:人們蜂擁而至去打卡比旅游勝地的美景重要多了。分析句子可知,空白處置于定冠詞the之后,要用名詞,表達(dá)“吸引人的地方”。故填attractin。
【42題詳解】
考查被動語態(tài)。句意:所謂的打卡族——“打卡群體”——在許多景點都能被看到。分析句子可知,打卡的人們是在景區(qū)被找到、被看見的,即主語Daka Zu與find之間是被動關(guān)系,要用被動語態(tài)。故填be fund。
【43題詳解】
考查非謂語動詞。句意:一天里在盡可能多的熱門景點留下自己的身影。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,check in在這里作前句的狀語,check與主語Daka Zu之間是主動關(guān)系,要用現(xiàn)在分詞形式。故填checking。
【44題詳解】
考查形容詞。句意:打卡熱可能有著更實際的起源。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,空白處與rigins一起組成賓語,需要形容詞來修飾。故填practical。
【45題詳解】
考查形容詞。句意:所以他們必須盡可能利用有限的空閑時間。分析句子可知,空白處修飾leisure time,考慮形容詞,結(jié)合語境可知這里要表示“時間有限”。故填limited。

【解析】
【分析】本文以人物為線索展開,講述了杰西卡注意到暴風(fēng)雨要來,就立即關(guān)閉游泳池,讓所有人在暴風(fēng)雨來臨前安全回家,但扎克的母親因上班只能晚上來接八歲的扎克,杰西卡準(zhǔn)備送他回家,因為這不是一場普通的暴風(fēng)雨,所以杰西卡要把到扎克先帶回自己家,但到家后,發(fā)現(xiàn)門開不了,風(fēng)很大,玻璃也碎了,危險將至,杰西卡唯一的想法就是去一個安全的地方。
【詳解】1.段落續(xù)寫:
①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“杰西卡回憶起她在緊急訓(xùn)練中所學(xué)的一切,把扎克帶到了地下室。”可知,第一段可描寫杰西卡在危險情況下的反應(yīng)和做法以及他們當(dāng)時的情緒。
②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“最后一次碰撞后,風(fēng)暴的聲音漸漸消失了?!笨芍?,第二段可描寫暴風(fēng)雨平靜下來,屋里一片狼藉,扎克的母親感謝杰西卡。
2.續(xù)寫線索:去地下室——黑暗中摸索前進——害怕——暴風(fēng)雨平靜下來——扎克的母親感謝杰西卡——感悟
3.詞匯激活
