The six-day hike starts in Sendai and works its way through the nor-them Tohoku region,passing through the UNESCO World Heritage (遗产)Site of Hiraizumi and along the ancient Dewa Kaido path. With its beech and cherry forests,it finishes at the temple of Yamadera.Mount Toubkal,MoroccoThe path upwards rises from the village of Imlil, passing over a dry river bed before rising sharply through a temple and on towards a large mountain cottage. After overnight here, hikers set off up the snowfield to the peak, where the Atlas Mountains open out and the views are breathtaking. A local guide and muleteers for carrying luggage are a must.The Dingle WayjrelandIt is a ring-like path that offers the best way to get under the skin of wild County Kerry in Ireland's south west. Starting in the town of Tralee, the clockwise path follows narrow roads, taking in the wide sweep of sand at Inch Strand, passing along the clifftops outside Dingle town and heading around the edge of Mount Brardon, the highest peak on the Dingle Peninsula.1 .What do we know about the Basho Wayfarer?A.

In 1867,the city's founding fatherjack Swilling saw the remains of irrigation (灌溉)channels wandering across the landscape. He realized that, centuries before, some society had farmed this desert. Soon after, Swilling began clearing the blocked canals to bring agriculture back to the region.Three years later, Swilling and other pioneers met to consider names for their settlement. The top two were Pumpkinville and Stonewall. Luckily, English adventurer Darrell Duppa proposed a name inspired by the resurrection (复兴)of the canals."A great race once lived here, and another great race will live here in the future/1 he considered.、predict that a new city will spring, phoenix-like,from the ruins and ashes of the old.”Gary Huckleberry, a researcher, said,"In the southwest,we have some serious issues to deal with in terms of water. The Colorado Riveris the main source of water for the southwest, and it's over distributed. We've got population growth and climate change. How are we going to deal with that? I think there's something to be learned by looking at past societies who managed water for thousands of years.”That great society was the Hohokam. Between 100 and 1450 AD,they constructed 1,000 miles of canals. As the Hohokam expanded their network, they constantly repaired, cleaned and diverted the canals/'It requires cooperation, because all the users of the water from that canal have to agree not only to construct it, but also to maintain itHenderson, a scientist, said, "Users would have to agree to certain conditions to keep the entire system going.nThe Hohokam committed to sharing water and put themselves on timetables.The Hohokam used canal irrigation for 3,00) years."That, to me, is the definition of sustainable development,1' Huckleberry said."They learned how to sustainably farm, to manage water, to not destroy their soils in a way that is worthy and might give us insight into how we might deal with the current trouble. I think one of the key lessons is that you don't put all your eggs in one basket.” 8.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.The reconstruction of canals.B.The origin of the city's name Phoenix.C.The discovery of the irrigation channels. D.The agricultural development in the settlement. 9.

Farming can solve current trouble.D.The loss of soils is worse than before.DResearchers in Singapore have developed an electronic material that helps robots sense touch and nearby objects.The material is a kind of foam: a solid substance that is filled with air and is soft. And the foam has another useful quality. It repairs itself when damaged, much like human skin. The material is called AiFoam, which is short for artificially innervated foam. To innervate means to supply with nerves. In robots, AiFoam would gather information from nearby and send it to a computer controlling the robot. AiFoam is a stretchy polymer (聚合物) combined with a mixture that lowers surface tension.This means that if you cut the material, it can return easily into one piece.To copy the human sense of touch, the researchers mixed microscopic pieces of metal into the material. Then they added very small electrical connections beneath the surface of the foam.Benjamin Tee, a lead researcher on the new material at the National University of Singapore, said that when there is pressure on the material, the metal particles (颗粒)get closer. The movement changes their electrical properties. The electrical connections sense these changes and send information about them to a computer,which then tells the robot what to do.“When I move my finger near the sensor, you can see the sensor is measuring the changes of my electrical field and responds accordingly to my touchhe said. The robotic hand senses not only the amount but also the direction of the force placed on it. That could make robots more intelligent and responsive.Tee said AiFoam is the first material of its kind to combine self-repairing properties with nearness and pressure sensing. After spending over two years developing it,Tee and his team hope the material can be put to use within five years.12 .What is one feature of AiFoam?A. It is made out of air.B.It is a low-cost material.C.It has self-repairing ability.D.It can replace human skin.13 .How does the author develop paragraph 2?A.By giving instructions.B.By listing examples.C.By making comparisons.D.By offering explanations.14 .Which of the following gives orders to the robot?A.Benjamin Tee.B.The researcher.C.The sensor.D.The computer.15 .What can we learn about AiFoam from the last two paragraphs?A. It can measure the shape of your finger.B.It can change the direction of the force.C. It will come onto the market in the near future.D. It makes robots more sensitive than human beings. 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。Hurricane season can be wild and unpredictable.16Here are some ways you can beef up your home security in hurricane weather, even if you need to move out.17That actually does nothing to ensure your safety in the powerful winds. Sticking to hurricane shelters or plywood (胶合板)is the only way to go when it comes to protecting those points of entry in hurricane conditions. Buy sheets of plywood,measure your windows and use brackets (支架)to hold the plywood in place.Sandbags are very useful. While sandbags won't be able to help in the extreme storm, many people will be able to prevent flooding and extensive damage to their belongings by placing sandbags.18Any storm water that is kept out of your home is storm water that won't be able to damage the belongings inside your home,so sandbags are well worth having at your doorways during a hurricane.Its important to prepare the inside of your home for strong winds and rain.But you should also keep an eye on the outside of your house, too.Trim (修剪)trees, especially dead branches, to prevent anything else that could fly through a window and cause damage during a hurricane. 19You should also take pictures of expensive items like electronics and keep notes of their serial numbers.20Also, there are always bad people out right after a storm. If the worst happens and your home is broken into right after a bad storm,having pictures and detailed notes about what was in your home prior to the hurricane will make it easier for police to track down stolen items. A.You should have a camera at home.B.It can be strong enough to resist the forceful winds.C.Making sure nothing is loose in your yard is important.D.You may see people taping windows before a hurricane comes.E.They will be able to effectively keep storm water out in many cases.F.It will aid with your insurance company if anything needs to be replaced.G.These dangerous storms can bring damage to your home and belongings.第二部分 语言运用(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。Residents of a Wiltshire town have created a vertical living garden to fight pollution.
