The plan has been in legal limbo （边缘）for the past year. Yet scientists have now calculated another outcome of the policy: harm to crop yields （产 量）if the plan is cancelled. Along with carbon pollution, coal-fired power plants spew （喷出）pollutants that form what we know as smog. The contribution of smog to increased rates of asthma （哮口用）and premature deaths was already known. The new research estimates the extent to which smog, under air-pollution policies-4n place before the Clean Power Plan, would limit production in 2020 of four major crops: corn, cotton, potatoes and soybeans.Led by environmental engineer Shannon L. Capps, now at Drexel University, the team also sketched the extent to which those crop production losses would reduce under three nationwide scenarios (方案).One improved the efficiency of individual power plants. Another modeled a policy similar to the Obama plan, setting state CO? emissions goals for the electricity department. A third established a tax on carbon emissions, under which emissions fell the most. But the greatest drop in smog-forming pollutantsand greatest gains in crop yields-came from policies such as the Clean Power Plan.Researchers calculated how well each scenario would reduce the potential productivity loss (PPL) of each crop. PPL is a projected value for 2020 and indicates how much crop growth would suffer because of smog. Scenario 2 most closely agrees with results expected from the Clean Power Plan.1、What's the main purpose of The Clean Power Plan?A.To offer clean power,B.To limit CO2 emissions.C.To slow climate change.D.To increase crop production.2、The latest research shows that smog may cause .A.asthmaB.early deathsC.heart diseaseD.crop production loss3、What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Scenario 3 was intended to increase taxes.B. Scenario 2 increased crop yields most.C. Scenario 1 didn't have any effect on crop yields.D. The three scenarios were made at Drexel University.4、What's the best title of the passage?A. U.S. states restart the Obama's Plan.B. The Clean Power Plan was called off.C , Three scenarios benefit crop yields.D. Smog does harm to people's health.Text 3"Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy - they re given after all. Choices can be hard.”-Jeff Bezos.I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. Fd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I d been married for a year. I told my life MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don't, and I wasn't sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go fbr it. As a young boy, I'd been a garage inventor. Fd always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I admired very much. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said. "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job.H That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but eventually, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision not to try at all.After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.1、What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?A , His dream of being an inventor.B. The support of his wife.C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet. D. Millions of exciting titles.2、Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.B He would be very excited if he tried it out.C. He would be always having a doubt if he didn't try.D. The decision not to the online bookstore would terrify him. 3、We can know from the passage that.A. the boss thought the idea was suitable for the authorB. the author wanted someone else to try the ideaC. the author might not regret if he failed the ideaD. the author might go back to his boss if he failed4、Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Cleverness and KindnessB. The Starting of AmazonC. Following My PassionD. We Are What We ChooseText 4A new device the size of a coffee cup can make drinkable water from dry air using nothing but sunlight. With this device, “you can harvest a glass of water in an hour,“ says Omar Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California, Berkeley. "Thafs about how much water a person needs a day to survive in the desert.”Although the current device is just a prototype （原型），the technology could be adopted to supply fresh water to the most remote regions of the globe, such as the Middle East and North Africa.Similar devices in previous attempts worked only below 50 percent relative humidity （湿度）.They can extract water from the air even at low relative humidity. However, they either collect water too slowly or require lots of energy.However, the new device, using a new special material, pulls water from air with as low as 20 percent relative humidity and successfully avoids both problems. Developed by MIT engineers from an existing material, the special material, called MOF-801, creates a network of very small pores （气孑L） that can trap water vapor. At room temperature, water vapor collects in the pores. As temperatures rise, the water escapes into the box designed for water collection.When the device is left in the shade, the layer of MOF-801 collects water vapor from the air. When moved into direct sunlight, the layer heats up and the water vapor escapes into a box, which cools the vapor, making it into drinkable water. This entire process takes around two hours.Laboratory tests of the device harvested 2.8 liters of water per day. Therefore, the device could be used us a personal water source in dry regions, Yaghi says, or the techonology could be used to produce enough water for a whole community.1、The new device is invented to according to Yaghi.A. provide solar enegyB. make the desert hospitableC. make water from airD. measure humidity2、What helps the device avoid the problems of previous attempts?A. A new material called MOF-801.B. Large pores which can trap water.C , The box cooling water vapor.D. The layer powered by the sun.3、Which is the right order of how the device works?a. Collect vapor from the air.b. The device is left in the shade.c. The device is moved in the sunlight.d. Cool the vapor into drinkable water.A a->b->c->dB. b->dC. c->b->dD. a->c->b->dPart BDirections:Read the foHowing text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subheading from the listA -G for each numbered paragraph (41 一 45).
