there for the next two weeks.Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth,sometimes you cant fly at all.We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if wed be leaving that day.People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather.It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7.But even when we were in the air,there was still a chance we wouldnt be able to fly the whole day.Day 4:WednesdayDecember 3After waking up in the Antarctic for the first time today I can understand why everybody who comes here falls in love with the place.It is really beautiful.Were staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around.It is about minus 20 today which for me is very cold,but the regulars(常客) here are often seen walking around in T-shirts!Day 5:ThursdayDecember 4I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic.Im told its a bit colder today,about minus 50 ,but its not very windy so it feels warmer.Those of us who are new to the base have to do a special training course before were allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.Day 7:SaturdayDecember 6Not a cloud in the sky and its warm enough to sit outside (in a jacket).The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery (风景) changes every day.At first I thought I was going mad.Id step outside in the morning and think,“Im sure that big mountain of ice wasnt there yesterday.” Its because the sea ice is always movingslowly thankfully!【语篇解读】本文是一篇旅游日记。主要讲述了作者在南极旅行时的经历。21.Lizziesatoutsidewearingajacketon. A.TuesdayB.WednesdayC.ThursdayD.Saturday答案D解析细节理解题。根据Day7:SaturdayDecember6一段中提到“Notacloudintheskyanditswarmenoughtositoutside(inajacket).”今天不太冷,室外也挺暖和,这里备注写的是穿上了夹克,这天是第七天,12月6号,星期六,故选D项。22.What

all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles.The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization.Unlike real inland seas,which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness.It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankinds earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.WhenthewindisfromthewestAllthewavesthatcannotrestTotheeastmustthunderonWherethebrighttreeofthesunIsrootedintheoceansbreast.As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull.It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly.It makes all kinds of noiseit is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breathperhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean,but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach.It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature.It is filled with symbiotic existences, too; unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality.And it has a psychology.It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.【语篇解读】本文为一篇说明文,主要讲述了大西洋的基本情况。24.Unlikerealinlandseas,theAtlanticOceanis. A.alwaysenergeticB.lackinginlivelinessC.shapedlikeasquareD.favoredbyancientpoets答案A解析细节理解题。第一段最后两句话谈到大西洋具有丰富的海洋活跃分子,不像真正的内陆海一样平静,又由vitality和energetic表达的意思相近,故选A项。25.What

mean?A.Living together.B.Growing fast.C.Moving harmoniously.D.Breathing peacefully.答案A解析词义猜测题。“Itisfilledwithsymbioticexistences.”之后的内容是对这一句的解释。根据画线单词上文中的alivingcreature和下文中的mix,harmony可知,symbiotic意为“混合的,共生的”,指的是“那些难以想象的大量的生物,无论大小,都混合在一起共生”。故选A项。27.In the last paragraph,the Atlantic is compared to . A.a beautiful and poetic placeB.a flesh and blood personC.a wonderful worldD.a lovely animal答案B解析推理判断题。根据最后一段中的heartbeat“心跳”、psychology“心理”和personalities“个性,品质”可推知,作者把大西洋比作了一个有血有肉的人,故选B项。CYoull need to take a deep breath before hearing this news.An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their health,according to a new report by WHO.Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543,000 kids under 5 in 2016,with more than one in four deaths of children under five years old being related to environmental issues.Exposure (暴露)to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways,either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity and so on.“The large toll of disease and death revealed (揭示)by these new data should result in an urgent call to action for the global community especially for those in the health department WHO stated.“Strong action to reduce exposure to air pollution offers an opportunity to protect the health of children.” The report stressed that health experts should communicate with families,communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution exposure.“ Although more researches into how air pollution affects childrens health will continue to be valuable,there is already evidence to justify strong,swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces,” WHO added.Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low-and-middle in some countries,especially those in Africa,South-East Asia,and Western Pacific regions.Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking,heating and lighting.Advised solutions include cleaner transport,cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies energy-efficient housing and urban planning,safer industrial technologies and better waste management.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要说了世界空气污染严重,严重影响着儿童健康,通过采取强有力的行动防止空气污染可以有效减少损害。文中还提到污染的空气在一些地区引发疾病,同时给出了相应的解决方案。28.Whatisthesecondparagraphmainlyabout?A.Thewa
