Hiking generally doesn't require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.Backcountry CampingWhy limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend (or longer) adventure? Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear, food, and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. If you're an experienced hiker and camper, this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.Mountain and Road BikingUnlike long hikes through the woods, biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes, between trees, and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren't suited for rugged terrain, consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country roads.GardeningContrary to popular belief, you don't have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility is restricted, consider making a garden to plant your own vegetables, fruits, herbs, or flowers. There's something truly satisfying about mixing a salad with fresh ingredients you plant yourself. One of the best parts about spending time on nature is that it doesn't have to break your budget and anyone can do it.1What do hikers need for hiking?AA world map.BA strong desire.CPractical skills. DNecessary equipment.2Where will you go to show your survival potential in the wild?ATo a backyard. BTo a forest.CTo a mountain. DTo a distant place.3Which of the following can take you to travel farthest?AHiking. BBackcountry Camping.CGardening. DMountain and Road Biking.4What is the advantage of enjoying the natural beauty in your garden?AIt's popular. BIt saves money.CIt's adventurous. DIt saves time.B2020·长沙市高三统一模拟“Pay it forward” is a new saying which means donating money or performing good deeds without hoping for recognition. As far as the receiver of the money, gift, or good deed is concerned, he or she is told only to do something good for someone else.When Scott, a homeless man, spent his last $15, he wasn't looking at it as an investment, but it's about to pay him huge profits. After he helped a woman who ran out of gas, she returned the favor by raising a lot more on the Internet.Emily McClure, 26, was driving home when she ran out of gas halfway. “He saw me pull over and knew something was wrong，” she wrote. “He told me to get back in the car and lock the doors. A few minutes later, he came back with a red gas can, using his last 15 dollars to make sure I could get home safely.”She couldn't repay him at that time because she had no cash with her. “I have been stopping by his spot for the past few weeks. I repaid him for the gas and gave him some clothes.”Emily decided to do more for him, so she started a crowdfunding(众筹) campaign on GoFundMe, and it quickly gained far beyond its initial $10,000 goal. When it reached $100,000, the fund­raising page was shut down for a time at Scott's request. He didn't want people to think he was taking advantage of the situation. Finally, Emily said that she restarted it because the public interest had not decreased. She also added that Scott planned to donate the rest to a good cause.According to The Washington Times, Scott wants to get a job at a warehouse and a department manager from a company has already reached out to Scott.5Why was the fund­raising page closed for a time?APeople had no more interest in donation.BEmily was too busy to make efforts for it.CScott was unwilling to be considered greedy.DThe goal to raise $10,000 had been achieved.6Which of the following best describes Scott?AFlexible but mean. BCaring and supportive.CHonest but stubborn. DAggressive and demanding.7What does the author want to tell us from the text?ATwo heads are better than one.BOne good turn deserves another.COne man's meat is another man's poison.DA bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.C2020·东北三校高三第一次联合模拟Clothing rental is a hot new industry and retailers (零售商) are demanding to get on board in the hope of attracting green shoppers.But is renting fashion actually more environmentally friendly than buying it, and if so, how much more? Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline investigated this question and concluded that it's not as sustainable as it seems.Take shipping, for example, which has to go two ways if an item is rentedreceiving and returning. Cline writes that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit after manufacturing.She writes, “An item ordered online and then returned can release 20 kilograms of carbon each way, and increases up to 50 kilograms for rush shipping. By comparison, the carbon impact of a pair of jeans purchased from a physical store and washed and worn at home is 33.4 kilograms, according to a 2015 study by Levi's.”Then there's the burden of washing, which has to happen for every item when it's returned, regardless of whether or not it was worn. For most rental services, this usually means dry­cleaning, a high­impact and polluting process. All the rental services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene (全氯乙烯), a carcinogenic (致癌的) air pollutant, still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners, with alternatives, although these aren't great either.Lastly, Cline fears that rental services will increase our appetite for fast fashion, simply because it's so easily accessible. There's something called “sharewashing” that makes people waste more precisely because a product or service is shared and thus is regarded as more eco­friendly. Uber is one example of this, advertised as “a way to share rides and limit car ownership”， and yet “it has been proven to discourage walking, bicycling, and public transportation use”Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them in the dustbin after wearing few times, but we shouldn't let the availability of these services make us too satisfied. There's an even better stepthat's wearing what is already in the closet.8What is Elizabeth Cline's attitude toward clothing rental?AApproving. BUnfavorable.CObjective. DEnthusiastic.9The Uber example in Paragraph 6 indicates that _.Arental services are on the riseBclothing rental will be as successful as UberCrenting clothes might waste more than expectedDrenting clothes might make people lose interest in fast fashion10The author suggests that we should _.Agive up renting clothesBpurchase inexpensive clothesCrent clothes rather than buy themDmake full use of clothes we've possessed11What is the passage mainly about?AClothing rental is a new fashion.BClothing rental is retailers' preference.CRenting clothes is not that eco­friendly.DRenting­clothes business is in a dilemma.D2020·重庆市高三第一次调研The proliferation (激增) of fires in the Amazon rainforest drew international attention in August 2019, especially when French President Emmanuel Macron called for urgent action. Since then, the eyes of the world have shifted elsewhere as House Democrats launched an impeachment (弹劾) inquiry against President Donald Trump.Meanwhile, the Amazon continued to burn. The number of fires decreased by 35% in September 2019, but experts say this is merely a slowdown in a crisis with global repercussions (反响). There were still 19,925 fire outbreaks in September 2019 on the Brazilian part of the rainforest, which accounts for nearly 65% of the Amazon basin. Moreover, through the first nine months of 2019, the number of fires soared by 41% compared to the same period in 2018, Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE) reported.Higher rainfall totals than usual since the beginning of September 2019 and measures taken under mounting pressure by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonarowho deployed the military to the Amazon and imposed a two­month ban on clearing land through firescontributed to the burning decline.“The factors that led to such widespread fires in the first placedecreased enforcement of forest law, illegal deforestation for agriculture and invasion of native territoriesremain in place，” said Nigel Sizer, Chief Program Officer for the advocacy organization Rainforest Alliance. “It is good news that there are fewer fires in the Amazon right now, but this is a short­term pause from the larger problem.”That problem centers on deforestation through systematically chopping down trees, which are either logged or burned, mostly to convert the land for raising cattle and growing crops. The practice has expanded from a small scale to an industrial production, leading to about 20% of the Brazilian Amazon having been cleared since 1970.12Who raised international attention to the proliferation of fires in the Amazon rainforest?AEmmanuel Macron. BDonald Trump.CNigel Sizer. DJair Bolsonaro.13What's the second paragraph mainly about?AThere are more fires in Amazon now than ever before.BThere were more fires in Amazon in August 2019 than in September 2019.CThe proliferation of fires covers most of the wide area in Amazon.DThe fires in the Amazon rainforest is still burning with international attention.14What's the main cause of the widespread fires in the Amazon rainforest?ADecreased enforcement of forest law.BInvasion of native territories.CSerious deforestation for agriculture.DThe short­term pause of the proliferation of fires.15From which is the text probably taken?AA biology textbook. BA gardening magazine.CA newspaper. DA travel brochure.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。2020·安徽省部分重点中学高三联考Urban WildlifeCities are diverse ecosystems. In addition to visitors from the wild, a large number of species share our urban areas. As our cities spread, we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors.Cities are built for humans. _16_ For example, most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. But when we cut grass or plant flowers, we destroy natural habitats._17_ When a bridge in Austin, Texas was repaired, engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom. This made a good home for bats, and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats. _18_ Now, they have come to value their winged (有翼的) neighbors. The bats are a tourist attraction, and they eat lots of bugs every night.There are also structures built with the aim of bringing wildlife into the city. The Olympic Forest Park is a good example. The park used native plants and created open, natural space for wildlife. The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds. In many ways, the park is the opposite of a zoo. _19_If we learn to share our space, we can become better neighbors to the wildlife around us. _20_ Our own future will be endangered too.AThey are built to protect birds.BOur actions sometimes help other species.CIf we do not, more species will become extinct.DThey do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.EInstead of being kept in cages, wildlife can move freely.FAt first, people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them.GThey would sit on it and their droppings would fall into the water.50分阅读理解提分练(二)阅读理解(共两节，满分50分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。A2020·广东省七校联合体第二次联考4 Fun Runs Even Non­Runners Will Enjoy Even people who swear they hate running will manage to enjoy these races that somehow make the sport fun.Hot Chocolate 5KDo you want a steaming cup of cocoa and lots of chocolate on a cold morning run?
