A BioBlitz is also known as a biological inventory (清单)or biological census (统计).The primary goal of a BioBlitz is to get an overall count of the plants, animals, and other organisms that live in a place.(“生物限时寻”指的是在短时间内,在一个特定地区发现并识别尽可 能多的物种。生物限时寻也被称为生物清单或生物普查。生物限时寻的主要目标是获得生活在一个地方的 植物、动物和其他生物的总体数量。)”和倒数第二段的“These differences make a BioBlitz a unique biological survey that encourages a relationship between the natural and human communities of a given area.(这些差异使“生 物限时寻”成为一项独特的生物调查,鼓励在特定地区建立自然和人类社区之间的关系。)”可知,本文主要 讲的是生物限时寻的特别之处和重大意义,因此本文最好的题目是B选项BioBlitz, a Unique Biological Survey(生物限时寻,一项独特的生物调查)”,故选B。DAs we enter a period of profound economic uncertainty, shown by recent well-known layoffs and a culture of “quiet quitting”, thinking about the future of work might well seem a scary prospect.Indeed, an ever-increasing digital skills gap threatens to stop businesses adopting the game-changing technologies that will help to power growth in the months and years ahead. For instance, with each exciting new technology comes a growing concern about whether we have a digitally skilled workforce ready to take advantage of it. After all, keeping the workforce up to speed with the latest advances is a key element of the digital transformation process, which will prove essential if we hope to improve business productivity and efficiency alongside our efforts to achieve sustained growth.Likewise, at the World Economic Forum9s annual meeting in Davos, the cybersecurity skills gap was named as one particular area of concern. There's good reason for this focus: if businesses can't protect themselves against external threats, they risk going backwards. And that's before they even start thinking about achieving growth. This is why we need to address the digital skills gap urgently.Well, we should change in order to help attract and keep a more diverse pool of talent, giving businesses a far better chance of finding the up-to-date digital skills they need. And, when it comes to engaging and empowering the current workforce, learning and development opportunities will be key, helping employees to enhance their skills for the benefit of both themselves and their employers.To make this all happen, leaders and employers must demonstrate a commitment to teaching their workforces digital skills by setting clear expectations and providing all the resources required. One approach, for example, would be to focus on the potential in the existing talent pool by identifying those already skilled in digital capabilities and supporting them to upskill their colleagues. Creating a culture of learning, with an emphasis on personal growth, canbe an impressive motivator in the workplace.Of course, it's all well and good saying that digital skills are paramount, but a workforce with purely hard skills will not future-proof a business. There's a need for soft skills that support the broader goal, so as not to ignore the other competencies required in a digital transformation: communication, critical thinking, creative design skills, and leadership. To exploit the technology to its full potential, such qualities are equally important.Fundamentally, getting the interaction right between humans and technology will be vital if businesses are to succeed. As a result, human skills must not be underestimated. Every business will need a range of people with a variety of skills - not only those experts in math, engineering, and science, but also those with creative minds and leadership qualities.12. What is the writer's main concern in the digital transformation process?A. The threats from technology.B. The challenge of upskilling workforces.C. The culture of “quiet quitting”.D.

A 15.C【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述企业在数字化转型过程中要关注劳动力技能的提高,也不能忽视数 字化转型所需的其他能力,强调硬技能和软技能结合的重要性。【12题详解】细节理解题。不艮据第二段 u For instance, with each exciting new technology comes a growing concern aboutwhether we have a digitally skilled workforce ready to take advantage of it. After all, keeping the workforce up to speed with the latest advances is a key element of the digital transformation process, which will prove essential if we hope to improve business productivity and efficiency alongside our efforts to achieve sustained growth.(例如,随着每一项令人兴奋的新技术的出现,人们越来越担心我们是否有一支拥有数字技能的劳动力队伍准备好 利用它。毕竟,让员工跟上最新进展是数字化转型过程的关键要素,如果我们希望在实现持续增长的同时 提高业务生产力和效率,这将证明至关重要。)”可知,在数字化转型过程中,作者最关心的是提高劳动力 技能的挑战。故选B。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段的 “And, when it comes to engaging and empowering the current workforce, learning and development opportunities will be key, helping employees to enhance their skills fbr the benefit of both themselves and their employers.(此外,当涉及到参与和授权当前劳动力时,学习和发展机会将是关键,帮助 员工提高他们的技能,从而使他们自己和雇主都受益。)”和第五段的“Creating a culture of learning, with an emphasis on personal growth, can be an impressive motivator in the workplace.(仓造种学习的文化, 强调个人 成长,可以成为一个令人印象深刻的工作场所的动力。)”可知,雇主应该在员工内部培养一种学习文化。 故选C。【14题详解】词句猜测题。根据最后段的 uFundamentally, getting the interaction right between humans and technology will be vital if businesses are to succeed. As a result, human skills must not be underestimated. Every business will need a range of people with a variety of skills - not only those experts in math, engineering, and science, but also those with creative minds and leadership qualities.(从根本上说,如果企业要取得成功,正确处理人与技术之间的互 动将至关重要。因此,人类的技能绝不能被低估。每个企业都需要一系列具备各种技能的人才不仅是 那些数学、工程和科学方面的专家,还需要那些具有创造性思维和领导才能的人。)”可知,划线词所在的 句子表示“当然,数字技能是最重要的",划线词paramount意思是“重要的",和important意思相近。 故选Ao【15题详解】推理判断题。通读全文,尤其倒数第二段 “Of course, it's all well and good saying that digital skills are paramount, but a workforce with purely hard skills will not future-proof a business. There's a need for soft skills that support the broader goal, so as not to ignore the other competencies required in a digital transformation: communication, critical thinking, creative design skills, and leadership.(当然,数字技能是最重要的,这是很好的 说法,但仅仅拥有硬技能的员工并不能保证企业的未来发展。我们需要软技能来支持更广泛的目标,这样 就不会忽视数字化转型所需的其他能力:沟通、批判性思维、创造性设计技能和领导能力。)”可推知, 文章的B的是讲述企业在数字化转型过程中要关注劳动力技能的提高,也不能忽视数字化转型所需的其他 能力,强调硬技能和软技能结合的重要性。故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。A Wonder PlantEvery rainy season, the mountain gorillas (大猩猩)of Central Africa migrate to the foothills and lower parts of the Virunga Mountains to feed on bamboo. For the 650 or so that remain in the wild, it's a vital food source.6 Gorillas aren't the only locals keen on bamboo. For the people near the mountains, it's a valuable raw material used fbr building houses and making household items. But in the past 100 years, resources have come under increasing pressure as populations have exploded and large areas of bamboo forest have been cleared to make way fbr farms.7 All over the world, the ranges of many bamboo species appear to be reducing, endangering the people and animals that depend upon them. A report published by the UN Environment Programme has revealed just how profound our ignorance of global bamboo resources is.Bamboo is a wonder plant. Its ecological role extends beyond providing food and habitat for animals. Bamboo tends to grow in stands made up of groups of individual plants that grow from root systems. Its extensive root systems are crucial in preventing water loss and soil erosion. 18 In India 25% of paper produced is made from bamboo fiber, and in Brazil, 100,000 hectares of bamboo are grown for its production. Because of its flexibility and strength, it has traditionally been used in construction. Bamboo is often the only readily available raw material for people in many developing countries.Ray Townsend, vice president of the British Bamboo Society, says, “Some plants are threatened because they can't survive in the habitatthey aren't strong enough or there aren't enough of them, perhaps. But bamboo can take care of itself-it is strong enough to survive if left alone. 20" When forest goes, it istransformed into something else: there isn't anywhere fbr forest plants such as bamboo to grow if you create a cattle grass land.A. Sadly, this isn't a single story.B. It is the physical disturbance that is the threat to bamboo.C. Until now, bamboo has been viewed as a second-class plant.D. Without it, their chances of survival would be reduced significantly.E. Besides, bamboo's most immediate significance lies in its economic value.F. More than a billion people rely on bamboo for either their shelter or income.G. Despite bamboo's value in economy and ecology, its situation is all the more worrying.【答案】16.D17. A 18. E 19. G 20. B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章叙述的是关于竹子的用途以及这种植物现在面临的严峻形势。【16题详解】根据上句提示 For the 650 or so that remain in the wild, it's a vital food source.(对于在野外生存的 650 个左右 的大猩猩来说,它是一个重要的食物来源。)承接上文,D项 Without it, their chances of survival would be reduced significantly.(没有它,他们的生存机会就会大大减少。)切题。该项中的Without it,-would be reduced 与上文的a vital food source对应,故D项正确。【17题详解】此空是段落首句,根据下文All over the world, the ranges of many bamboo species appear to be reducing, endangering the people and animals that depend upon them.(在世界各地,许多竹子的种类似乎正在减少,危 及到依赖它们的人和动物。),再根据上文large areas of bamboo forest have been cleared可知,A项Sadly, this isn,t a single story.(可悲的是,这并不是一个单一的故事。)承上启下,故A项正确。【18题详解】根据上文提示 Its extensive root systems are crucial in preventing water loss and soil erosion.(其广泛的根系对于 防止水 土流失至关重要。)再根据下文提示 In India 25% of paper produced is made from bamboo fiber, and in Brazil, 100,000 hectares of bamboo are grown for its production, (ii Ep®, 25% 的纸是用竹纤维制成的,而在巴 西,10万公顷的竹子是用来生产纸的。)承接上下文,E项Besides, bamboo's most immediate significance lies in its economic value.(此外,竹子最直接的意义在于它的经济价值。)该项和上下文都是在讲竹子的用途, 故E项正确。【19题详解】根据下文 Ray Townsend, vice president of the British Bamboo Society, says, "Some plants are threatened because they can't survive in the habitatthey aren't strong enough or there aren't enough of them, perhaps.(英国竹子协' 会的副主席Ray Townsend说:“一些植物受到了威胁,因为它们无法在栖息地生存它们不够强壮,或者 它们的数量不够。)可知,本空讲述竹子现在状况不好,G项Despite bamboo's value in economy and ecology, its situation is all the more worrying.(尽管竹子在经济和生态方面有价值,但它的情况更令人担忧。)切题。【20题详解】根据上句提示 But bamboo can take care of itsell-it is strong enough to survive if left alone.(但是竹子可以自己照顾它自己如果它能独立生存,它就足够强壮了。)再根据下文提示When forest goes, it is transformed into something else: there isn't anywhere fbr forest plants such as bamboo to grow if you create a cattle grass land.(当森林消失时,它就变成了另一种东西:如果你创造了一个牛草地,就没有任何地方可以 种植像竹子这样的森林植物。)承接上下文,B项It is the physical disturbance that is the threat to bamboo.(对 竹子的威胁是破坏竹子躯干。)切题,也就是让竹子独自生存就是保护它,对竹子的威胁是砍掉它。第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分) 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。One summer afternoon, when I was about eight years of age, I was looking at a beautiful rainbow. Somebody said, "If you should go to the 2 of the rainbow, you would find there great pots of gold and silver. Without22 、I rushed from the house, and set off toward the woods.I was so sure that I knew just 23 that rainbow ended. I remembered how glad and proud I was in my thoughts, and what fine presents I promised to all my friends out of my 24 , So thinking and laying delightful plans, almost before I knew it I had 25 the thick forest, and the end of the rainbow was not there!26 I saw it shining down among the trees a little farther off; so on and on I 27, through the thickbushes and 28 rapid streams. The woods grew thicker and darker, and the ground wetter. Suddenly I met in my way a 29 porcupine (豪猪),who made himself still larger when he saw me. Fearing that he would attack me, I ran from him as fast as my 30 feet would carry me. In my 3 and hurry I forgot to keep my eye on the rainbow, and when, at last, I 32 and looked for it, it was nowhere in sight! It had quite 33 away. I burst into tears, fbr I had lost all my 34 and had nothing to show fbr my pilgrimage (朝圣之旅)but muddy feet and a wet and tom body.But I soon found that my 35 had only begun: I was lost! I could not tell which was east or west, but36 about here and there, crying and calling, though I knew that no one could 37 me. All at once I heard my nickname called, so I jumped up. It was my eldest brother. He hugged and kissed away all my tears, and then he told me what the rainbow 38 is: "It is only painted air, and does not 39 on the earth. But it tells us something more. When you set off on a pilgrimage, you will be 40 by the rainbow through all the dark places of this world to treasures in your heart, better, far better, than silver or gold.” 21.
