In order to be eco-friendly, it repeatedly gets water from the Han River below. When water comes out with music, 10, 000 LED lights switch on, and a rainbow effect appears.‎ The Giant Location: Austria The Giant is designed by Austrian artist Andre Heller. It has a huge face with bright eyes and a watering mouth. The outside is covered with green grass. Its inside has a wonderful structure(结构).‎ Metalmorphosis Location: USA It is a fountain, a sculpture and also a performing work of art. The high- tech artistic work attracts people from all over the world. The fountain is made of more than 20 stainless steel plates(不锈钢板). They can form a huge head when turned to a certain angle. Whenever the head appears, it shoots water.‎ Nacka Fountain Location: Sweden Nacka Fountain is designed as a peace monument(纪念碑) for the founding of the United Nations. The main structure of Nacka Fountain is made of bronze. There are two sculptures on it. The fountain shoots water into the sea.‎ ‎71 Fountain Location: USA The great fountain is on Highway ‎71 in Ohio. It looks like a huge wheel surrounded by a green environment.

D ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了世界上的五大喷泉以及它们的特点。‎ ‎【31题详解】‎ 细节理解题。由第一部分内容中The Moonlight Rainbow Fountain is the world’s longest bridge fountain.（The Moonlight Rainbow Fountain是世界上最长的桥梁喷泉。）可知，Moonlight Rainbow Fountain是建在桥上的。故选D项。‎ ‎【32题详解】‎ 细节理解题。The Giant是在奥地利，Metalmorphosi位于美国，所以排除A项。 Metalmorphosis是由不锈钢板制作的，而The Giant的制作材料没有提及。排除B项。The Giant是由奥地利艺术家Andre Heller设计的。Metalmorphosi的设计者文章没有提及。排除D项。The Giant提到“It has a huge face with bright eyes and a watering mouth.” Metalmorphosis也提及“They can form a huge head when turned to a certain angle.”因此，两者的外形相似，都是头的形状。故选C项。‎ ‎【33题详解】‎ 推理判断题。71 Fountain部分首句提到“The great fountain is on Highway ‎71 in Ohio.”说这个喷泉的位置在俄亥俄州的71号公路上。因此我们可以推断喷泉名字正是以此公路命名的。其他选项都没有依据。故选D项。‎ B Unless you are fortunate enough to know an NBA player, Ryan Martin is probably the best basketball player you'll ever meet. Unlike those who fly up and down the court (球场),however, Martin is forced to take a different approach; he doesn't have legs.‎ Martin, a 33-year old man, is a professional wheelchair basketball player. His achievements have taken him halfway around the world to play in Spain for the last seven years. There he made a comfortable living playing basketball and working with some of the greatest athletes in the world.‎ ‎“A good wheelchair player can make $ ‎50,000 a year, while a star can make six figures,” said Martin. What's more, he couldn't see his family for months and European cities were unfriendly to the disabled. He also had to learn Spanish. Martin, however, overcame those drawbacks(困难).‎ He started by playing basketball when he was 12. It didn't take long for him to fall in love with the sport and, after graduating from Somers High, he attended Southwest Minnesota State University on a basketball scholarship. In college, he scored over 1 ,000 points in his career and set several school records.‎ And he works as hard—if not harder—than any other professional athlete. “He destroys me,” said Gina Navarra, who works out with Martin on occasion. “What he does amazes me.”‎ Martin also recognizes that, at age 33, he's in the back end of his career. With that in mind, he has been focusing more and more on his foundation.‎ ‎“I have 12 brothers and sisters. College gave me a true sense of achievement. The foundation is designed to give those with disabilities the opportunity to realize the dreams that I once had,” Martin said.‎ ‎“I'm not saying that out of a sense of pity,” he said. “I realize how fortunate I am to have achieved what I have. But I want to open doors for people.”‎ ‎34. What was Ryan Martin's life like in Spain?‎ A. Free. B. Boring. C. Difficult. D. Bittersweet.‎ ‎35 How was Ryan Martin's performance in college?‎ A. He stood out in basketball. B. He failed to make a record.‎ C. He was weak in his studies. D. He never won a scholarship.‎ ‎36. Why has Ryan Martin been working for the foundation?‎ A. To help those in need. B. To finish his basketball career.‎ C. To earn more money for his family. D. To learn basketball skills from other players.‎ ‎37. Which of the following words best describe Ryan Martin?‎ A. Honest and responsible. B. Ambitious and sensitive.‎ C. Reliable and knowledgeable. D. Determined and warm-hearted.‎ ‎【答案】34. D 35. A 36. A 37. D ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了轮椅篮球运动员Ryan Martin的事迹。他幼年时失去双腿，爱上篮球后经过努力拼搏，最终成为出色的篮球运动员，并且建立基金会，帮助残障人士实现他们的梦想。‎ ‎【34题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中“There he made a comfortable living playing basketball and working with some of the greatest athletes in the world.”以及第三段中“What's more, he couldn't see his family for months and European cities were unfriendly to the disabled. He also had to learn Spanish. Martin, however, overcame those drawbacks(困难).”可知，Martin在西班牙靠打球能维持很不错的生活，但是同时他也面临人们对残障人士的歧视而且他要学西班牙语来克服语言障碍。所以可以看到他在西班牙的生活有喜有忧，苦乐参半。故选D项。‎ ‎【35题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段“In college, he scored over 1 ,000 points in his career and set several school records.”在大学期间，他在职业生涯中获得了超过1000分的成绩，并创下了几项学校纪录。可知，Martin在上大学时在篮球方面表现突出。故选A项。‎ ‎【36题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The foundation is designed to give those with disabilities the opportunity to realize the dreams that I once had”可知，基金会旨在帮助那些残障人士去实现自己的梦想。由此判断出为什么瑞安·马丁一直在为基金会工作是为了帮助那些有需要的人。故选A项。‎ ‎【37题详解】‎ 推理判断题。Ryan Martin虽然失去双腿，但他克服重重困难，坚持不懈，经过努力拼搏，成为一名出色的轮椅篮球运动员。并且建立基金会，帮助其他有残疾的人实现梦想。由此可知，Ryan Martin是一个拥有坚定意志、富有爱心的人。故选D项。‎ C Working on a farm and taking care of crops can be hot, time-consuming and difficult. Engineers have long wanted to build robots to lighten the load. But it has proved a difficult task. Robots that walk or roll along the ground can step on the easily damaged plants heavily. And they have to stop working when rain turns fields muddy. “Tarzan”, however, could deal with some of those challenges.‎ Jonathan Rogers is a robotics expert at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. When it comes to a farm environment, he realized robots would face many problems. “Many robots tend to get twisted(弯曲的) together or get stuck,”he says. What's more, he notes, "It's very hard to leave them out for long periods without a human helping them.”‎ What if the robot could move above the crops? Jonathan Rogers says, “The sloths(树懒)move from tree branch to tree branch to avoid having to walk around the forest floor. "Then his team set out to design a robot that could swing hand to hand along wires hung above the field. He named their invention Tarzan after the jungle-swinging character in a movie.‎ Tarzan is not the first swinging robot. Mark Spong, a robotics researcher at the University of Texas at Dallas notes that some teams have built robots that do gymnastics or copy mammals. But he says he admires Tarzan for its using swinging movement to save energy and the idea of building a wire structure to move around above crops.‎ Rogers first predicted that Tarzan could help farmers monitor crops with sensors (传感器) and cameras. But he also said future robots might take water to a particularly thirsty plant or fertilize one that needs nutritional support. And adding a third “hand”could allow such a robot to harvest fruits and vegetables. Finally the robot could move off the farm and into the city, helping deal with the traffic and security.‎ ‎38. What worried the engineers when they built the farm robots?‎ A. They took up too much space.‎ B. They made the farming process slow.‎ C. They had difficulty exploring in fields.‎ D. They caused certain damage to crops.‎ ‎39. What does Jonathan Rogers think about most farm robots?‎ A. They take much time to make.‎ B. They get out of date more easily.‎ C. They depend too much on people.‎ D. They get used to the environment slowly.‎ ‎40. What attracts Mark Spong most about Tarzan?‎ A. Its strong wings. B. Its low cost C. Its creative design D. Its powerful engine.‎ ‎41. How did Jonathan Rogers feel about Tarzan’s future?‎ A. It could be found everywhere.‎ B. It could be put into more practical uses.‎ C It could be used to do all the farm work.‎ D. It could be popular with working people in cities.‎ ‎【答案】38. D 39. C 40. C 41. B ‎【解析】‎ 本文是一篇说明文。工程师们研发出一款机器人Tarzan，它可以减轻农场工作的负担。未来Tarzan可能会帮助农民使用传感器和照相机监控农作物、把水带到特别缺水的植物、给需要营养支持的植物施肥或者收获水果和蔬菜以及帮助应对交通和安全问题。‎ ‎【38题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Robots that walk or roll along the ground can step on the easily damaged plants heavily.”可知，沿着地面行走或滚动的机器人会严重踩踏容易损坏的植物。因此工程师在建造农场机器人时担心它们会对农作物造成一定的损害。故选D。‎ ‎【39题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It’s very hard to leave them out for long periods without a human helping them.”可知，如果没有人类的帮助，很难让它们长时间独立地在农场上工作。因此Jonathan Rogers认为大多数农场机器人在工作中都在很大程度上需要依赖于人。故选C。‎ ‎【40题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But he says he admires Tarzan for its using swinging movement to save energy and the idea of building a wire structure to move around above crops.”可知，Mark Spong赞扬Tarzan利用摇摆运动来节省能源以及建造铁丝网结构以在农作物上方移动的想法，这些是Tarzan所独有的。由此判断出Tarzan最吸引Mark Spong的是该款机器人的创意设计。故选C。‎ ‎【41题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Rogers first predicted that Tarzan could help farmers monitor crops with sensors and cameras. But he also said future robots might take water to a particularly thirsty plant or fertilize one that needs nutritional support. And adding a third “hand” could allow such a robot to harvest fruits and vegetables. Finally the robot could move off the farm and into the city, helping deal with the traffic and security.”可知，Rogers预测Tarzan可以帮助农民使用传感器和照相机监控农作物。但是他还说，未来的机器人可能会把水带到特别缺水的植物，或者给需要营养支持的植物施肥。加上第三只“手”可以使这种机器人收获水果和蔬菜。最终，机器人可以从农场来到城市，帮助应对交通和安全问题。因此可推断出，在Jonathan Rogers看来Tarzan在将来会有更多的实际用途。故选B。‎ D Most scientists are now certain that global warming is taking place. Gases such as carbon dioxide are creating a warm blanket around the earth. This blanket is trapping heat in the atmosphere, and so raising the temperature of the earth.‎ In Europe, eight of the last ten years have seen record high temperatures. On the other hand, the countries around the Mediterranean Sea are receiving even less rain than before. In Sub-‎ ‎ Saharan Africa the crops are drying out in the fields and people are dying of starvation. In 1999, the southern United States was struck by a serious of destructive(毁灭性的) hurricanes. Scientists expect such trends to continue, and to worsen, if global warming cannot be stopped.‎ In addition to worrying about rising global temperatures and extreme weather conditions, scientists are closely monitoring sea levels around the world. They are slowly rising, as the northern and southern polar ice caps start to melt. This will have serious consequences for low-lying countries near the sea. Already parts of these places are disappearing under the rising sea water.‎ According to a new research, one contradictory feature(特征) of global warming is that it will probably lead to a period of much colder weather. Scientists base their theory on what happened the last time the world warmed up, 8,300 years ago. They have discovered that when the ice melted from the northern polar ice cap it became trapped in a lake in northern Canada. As more ice melted, this lake suddenly burst open, pouring millions of tons of freezing fresh water into the North Atlantic. This flood of water prevented the normal flow of water in the Atlantic, which takes warm water from the tropics(热带地区) north to Europe. When this flow of warm water was cut off, temperatures in Europe dropped by between three and eight degrees over the next 200 years. ''That's the concern here,'' says Richard Alley, an American climate expert. ''The climate hasn't varied much in 8, 000 years. But big changes could come back!''‎ ‎42. What is the overall effect of global warming on Europe?‎ A. A warmer climate. B. A decline in rainfall.‎ C. An increase of hurricanes. D. A decrease of crop production.‎ ‎43. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?‎ A. The rising sea level. B. The melting of icebergs.‎ C. The increase in disasters. D. The cause of global warming.‎ ‎44. How does the author describe the climate change in Europe 8 ,300 years ago?‎ A. By offering statistics. B. By giving an example.‎ C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing the process.‎ ‎45. What can we infer from Richard Alley' s words?‎ A. Global climate change will bring more disasters.‎ B. Global warming will likely produce a colder climate.‎ C.
