气温升高对北极圈植物的影响

(2018·甘肃省高三第一次诊断)Even if trees cannot walk, they are still on the move.
In parts of the Arctic, entire forests are moving northward. Across the Arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world. As that happens, the tree line that marks where forests stop and the treeless tundra (冻原) starts has been shifting northward. Trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind. To do this,_plants tend to grow horizontal (水平的) branches low to the ground.
The energy it takes for trees to grow this way means they don't have enough energy to make seeds.
But as Earth's climate has been warming, trees no longer have to just grow horizontally. Many can instead grow up toward the sky. This takes less energy. And with all that leftover energy, these trees have started producing more seeds. This happens especially in places where white spruce (白云杉) grows.
White spruce, which is a North American tree, is quite able to produce a lot of seeds, which can move long distances in the wind. When windblown seeds end up on the tundra beyond the tree line, they eventually can sprout (发芽) new trees. This explains how a forest can move. Of course, the process would work only if the tundra were warm enough. But in recent years, the whole planet has been warming.
New trees will provide shelters for some snow. Keeping the sun's rays from making the white surface disappear. Instead, the trees absorb the sun's heat. This warms the surrounding air. The extra warmth encourages even more trees to produce seeds. That further boosts a forest's ability to expand. In addition, more trees will trap more snow, preventing much of it from being blown away. Snow can trap heat in the soil below, which encourages trees to grow. The recent rise of temperatures has helped more trees grow past the tree line. People worry about impacts on the animals that depend on frozen conditions for food and shelter.
语篇解读:本文是一篇科研报告。主要研究了气温升高对北极圈植物的影响。
1.What is the main cause of the trees in the Arctic moving northward?
A.The shrinking of northern tundra.
B.The rising temperature.
C.The fierce and cold wind.
D.The abundant resources in the north.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段的第二句“Across the Arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world.”以及本段的整体内容可知,不断上升的气温是北极圈树木北移的主要原因,即B项正确。
2.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.To produce more seeds.
B.To move northward.
C.To respond to the climate change.
D.To protect themselves from the cold wind.
解析:选D 代词指代题。根据画线词前的“Trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind.”可知,画线词this 指代的是本句中的“protect themselves from the cold wind”,故D项正确。
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.New trees can trap the snow, which may make the soil colder.
B.The trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds.
C.New trees can make the surrounding air warmer.
D.New trees can bring more food and shelter to local animals.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“New trees will provide shelters for some snow ... This warms the surrounding air.”可推知,新树会让周围的空气更加温暖,故C项正确。
4.The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A.a science report B.a health report
C.a fashion magazine D.a children's magazine
解析:选A 文章出处题。根据文章的整体内容可推知,本文主要研究的是气候变暖对北极圈植物的影响,故该文应选自科研报告,故A项正确。

Nine out of ten people on the planet breathe polluted air, even indoors, the World Health Organization (WHO) said. Some 92% of the population live in places where air pollution exceeds (超过) WHO limits.
Air pollution can contribute to lung cancer and heart disease. The Southeast Asia and Western Pacific regions account for nearly two out of every three such deaths, with poorer countries “getting worse”. Around three million deaths every year are linked to outdoor air pollution. When “indoor” air pollution — which includes contaminants like wood smoke and cooking fires — is added, air pollution is linked to one in every nine deaths worldwide, the WHO said. The air quality model used in the data measures the smallest particles (颗粒), less than 2.5 micrometres across, which can enter the bloodstream and reach the brain.
Countrybycountry data showed that Turkmenistan is ranked first for the death rate connected to air pollution. Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Egypt rounded out the top five. “Rich countries are getting much better in improving the quality of the air,” Dr Carlos Dora from the WHO told the Associated Press. “Poorer countries are getting worse.” However, he said, North America is doing better than Europe, mostly because Europe depends more on diesel fuel (柴油) and
farming practices. China, the country with the sixthhighest death rate linked to air pollution, is relatively wealthy, but is bothered by smog in its cities and polluted air from industrial sources.
The WHO pointed to sustainable transport, waste management, and renewable energies as possible ways to reduce air pollution. It said its latest data represented the most detailed study it has ever released. The analysis combined satellite measurement and more than 3,000 monitoring stations on the ground with air transport models. The report is based on 2012 figures, which are the most recent data available.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。全球90%的人呼吸着被污染的空气,而空气污染会引发多种疾病。贫穷国家的空气污染越来越严重。世界卫生组织指出,要想减少空气污染就必须改变人们的生活方式和生产方式。

6.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Heating tools. B.Indoor waste.
C.Producing activities. D.Harmful substances.
解析:选D 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“‘indoor’ air
pollution”以及画线词后的“like wood smoke and cooking fires”可知contaminants的意思应为“污染物”。故选D。
7.Which has the lowest death rate caused by air pollution?
A.North America. B.Turkmenistan.
C.Egypt. D.China.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Turkmenistan is ranked first for the death rate connected to air pollution”可知土库曼斯坦与空气污染有关的死亡率最高;根据“Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Egypt rounded out the top five”可知埃及排名前五;根据“China, the country with the sixthhighest death rate linked to air pollution”可知中国排名第六;根据“North America is doing better than Europe”可知,North America的情况比欧洲的好,故North America的空气污染导致的死亡率最低。
8.Which may the author advocate to reduce air pollution?
A.Control the population. B.Invent energies.
C.Use air transport models. D.Go green.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The WHO pointed to sustainable transport, waste management, and renewable energies as possible ways to reduce air pollution.”可知,要减少空气污染,人们要过绿色生活。故选D。
