The PM has faced mounting criticism over his government's response to the bushfires and its climate policy.‎ Since September, bushfires have killed at least 28 people and destroyed thousands of homes. Mr Morrison's government has been accused of not doing enough to deal with climate change, which experts say could increase the strength, frequency and size of bushfires. But in the interview, the PM defended the approach of the government, which he said took into account the effect of climate change on the bushfires.‎ Each year there is a fire season during the Australian summer, with hot, dry weather making it easier for flames to start and spread. Natural causes are to blame most of the time, like lightning strikes in drought-affected forests. Humans can also be to blame. NSW police have charged at least 24 people with deliberately starting bushfires, and have taken legal action against 183 people for fire-related offenses since November, according to a police statement.‎ Bushfire conditions eased on Saturday, giving firefighters a temporary short break in areas where flames are still spreading. But authorities have warned that the huge fires, caused by high temperatures, wind and a three-year drought, will persist until there is adequate rainfall.‎ About half a billion animals have been affected by the fires across NSW, with millions likely dead. The figures for NSW include birds, reptiles, and mammals, except bats. It doesn't include insects and frogs, so the real number is almost certain to be higher, the ecologists said. Almost a third of koalas in NSW may have been killed in the fires, and a third of their habitat has been destroyed, said Federal Environment Minister Sussan Ley.‎ ‎24. What can we learn in the first two paragraphs?‎ A. The bushfires caused little damage in Australia.‎ B. The PM criticized the climate policy.‎ C. People are angry about the government's inadequate action.‎ D. The government will change its response to the bushfires.‎ ‎25. What makes the Australian summer a fire season?‎ A. Greenhouse effect. B. Lightning strike.‎ C. Human's behaviour. D. Hot dry weather.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “persist" mean in Para 4?‎ A. decrease B. last C. disappear D. run ‎27. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. More animals have been affected than the figure shows.‎ B. A billion animals face extinction due to the fires.‎ C. Koalas are in immediate danger of dying out.‎ D. The huge fires have no influence on insects and frogs.‎ C For top students from low-income families, applying to colleges is particularly difficult. One approach makes this whole process easier? Provide an adviser for them.‎ That's the idea behind CollegePoint, a program to help gifted students go to schools that match their intelligence. When a high school student takes a standardized test—the PSAT, SAT or ACT—and they score in the 90th percentile, and their families make less than $ 80, 000 a year, they get an email from the program offering them a free adviser. The advisers listen, guide and answer students' questions.‎ Connor Rechtzigel, an adviser in Minnesota, sees the importance of his role, for research shows that low-income students are far more likely to undermatch because they don't think they have what it takes to get in and because many don't even know what schools are out there. He helped high school senior Justice Benjamin, the first in his family to apply to college, thinking about what his ideal learning experience was. Finally, Justice narrowed in on smaller schools where he could study environmental science and made his final choice: Skidmore College in New York.‎ Figuring out how to pay for college is a major part of what CollegePoint advisers do. Nakhle, an adviser in North Carolina, is working with Hensley, an Ohio high school senior who can't get extra financial help from her family. They spent a lot of time comparing and analyzing her financial-aid award letters, which made her decision much clearer. Finally, the Ohio State University offered an option where she would pay nothing. Staying in-state wasn't her first choice, but it was the best option for her. ‎ ‎28. What is the second paragraph mainly about?‎ A. How CollegePoint works. B. The history of CollegePoint.‎ C. Ways to apply for a free adviser. D. The challenge of choosing colleges.‎ ‎29. What prevents low-income students from attending proper colleges?‎ A. Thinking highly of their abilities. B. Knowing little about colleges.‎ C. Lack of enough learning experience. D. Failure to pass the entrance exam.‎ ‎30. Why did Hensley finally choose the Ohio State University?‎ A. She didn't want to stay far from home.‎ B. Her favorite major was provided there.‎ C. She would show her talents to the full.‎ D. The university met her financial needs.‎ ‎31. What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. Steps for Students to Choose Suitable Colleges B. CollegePoint—How to Be a Financial Adviser C. Advisers Helping College Students to Score High D. CollegePoint—Helping Students Select Ideal Colleges D When Denis wants to relax at work, he steps into a quiet room, sits in a chair, slips on a virtual-reality headset, and escapes to the beach. For Denis, that moment is a tool he relies on regularly to both relieve and ‎ prevent stress.‎ He's not the only one at his company to use the room, where workers can also use a headset to watch a moon walk, take a virtual roller-coaster ride or access a meditation (冥 想)app.‎ Research shows VR can help reduce pain and anxiety. But it's not yet clear why it works. Experts believe it's related to the technology's power to distract.‎ ‎“Whatever their problems are, whatever their stresses are, they can leave reality and have a different emotional mood," Denis said.‎ Virtual-reality headsets haven't taken off with consumers, but they're now powerful and inexpensive enough for companies to consider investing in them to help make workers and customers happier.‎ The headsets may help people take a virtual break from their surroundings, but there are challenges to consider. Ramon Llamas, a tech-market researcher, noted that there could be challenges in handing out headsets. Some people get sick or dizzy while using virtual reality, and the headsets may get dirty or broken. There's also the task of quickly familiarizing people with using the headsets, especially since VR adoption has been so limited and the ways they are controlled can vary.‎ For now, Llamas said, he's concerned about privacy and security. What if, for example, someone manages to hack into a headset and insert some content into what you' re watching?‎ Another potential issue is the management of the headsets and software that goes along with them. This is likely not a complication for an office like Umber Realty's, where people can simply take a headset off if they feel something wrong. But it could be more of a problem if you're stuck in a dentist's chair. “The last thing you want is that in the middle of pulling a tooth something goes wrong," Llamas said.‎ ‎32. What does Denis's company use Virtual Reality for?‎ A. Improving the customers' experience.‎ B. Showing the schedule of his company.‎ C. Relieving pressure of the staff.‎ D. Saving the trouble of transportation.‎ ‎33. How can the VR devices help the users by Denis?‎ A. Escaping from reality for the moment. B. Improving their thinking ability.‎ C. Designing work for the company. D. Investing in a new industry.‎ ‎34. What problems is VR likely to have according to Ramon Llamas?‎ A. Some hackers will surely endanger users' health.‎ B. It is hard for users to recognize familiar people.‎ C. The company may have difficulty storing these devices.‎ D. Some users may feel uncomfortable when using it.‎ ‎35. Why does the author mention “pulling a tooth" in the last paragraph?‎ A. To advise people to make use of VR widely.‎ B. To prove one of the potential problems of VR.‎ C. To prevent all patients from using VR.‎ D. To help dentists to repair teeth with VR.‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。‎ If you love books, it is good that you want to share this love with other people.‎ Finding a book club nearby means that you can connect with others who have the same hobby as you. The following ways may give you a hand.‎ ‎36 This is a very important step in selecting a book club. Most book clubs have some types of themes or a specific type of books that they read. Deciding on exactly what type of books you would like to read will help you choose the book club to join.‎ Call your local library and see if they have any book clubs. Many libraries have their own book clubs. 37 Book lovers often know about book clubs in your area.‎ Contact groups that you already belong to and see if they have started a book club. Many professional and hobby associations have book clubs as part of their membership. 38 This can be an excellent way to find a book club about a topic you are interested in.‎ Look just a bit farther than your local area. If you are willing to travel at least ten miles, you are opening up more chances to find a great book club. 39 Don't limit yourself to just what is in front of your nose.‎ ‎40 Not every book club is accepting new members. So it is very helpful to gather information about at least several book clubs that interest you. This means that even if one book club says, “No, thank you," you still have two or three others that sound interesting.‎ A. Every book club has their own schedule.‎ B. Decide what type of books you want to read.‎ C. Join the book clubs after you call local libraries.‎ D. But even if they don't, they know a lot about book lovers.‎ E. Members often gather to read books of interest and talk about them.‎ F. Ask each book club you speak to if they are accepting new members.‎ G. This means there are more libraries and groups available for you to contact.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)‎ 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Ten years ago, I drove a cab for a living.

From his home in the suburbs, Matrone watched the weather with concern. He and his wife, Cicioni, had planned an overnight getaway to the hotel halfway up the mountain. But now he wondered whether they should go. After phoning the hotel, they decided to make the trip. When they finally arrived six hours later, they were both cold and exhausted. They checked into their room and went to bed early.‎ As they awoke the next day, they discovered that their difficulty had worsened overnight. The cars in the parking lot were invisible. The phone and power lines were down. Many people were digging their cars.‎ With a dozen vehicles freed by noon, the guests set off down the driveway. But when they reached the main road, the path was blocked by a six-foot-high wall of snow. Matrone climbed out of his car and there was no road in sight. “We're trapped! he told his wife. So they had no choice but to make their way back to the hotel.‎ As it was getting dark, they managed to be back. That was when the snow on the mountain began to slide. They heard the avalanche (雪崩)before they saw it. The avalanche gathered speed and size, grabbing anything in its way down the mountain and tearing the hotel from its foundation. When the avalanche came to a stop, those caught inside the hotel were left buried in the icy rocks and ruins.‎ 注意:续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。‎
