15、n ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. A ban on distracted wa

16、lkingYou cant walk down the street without passing so-called “smart-phone zombies（僵尸）.” They are too absorbed in their screen (21) _ (watch) where they are going. Almost four in ten people admit having suffered a technology-related small accident (22) _ they pay more attention to their electronic de

17、vice than to the pavement. Now the city of Honolulu, Hawaii, has decided its time to take immediate action and make it illegal to cross the road while using a mobile phone. Those (23) _ (catch) using phones, tablets or other electronic devices at crossing points could face a fine of up to $ 100.Hono

18、lulu is the first major U. S. city to ban (24) _ is called “distracted walking.” It comes after a study found there (25) _ (be) more than 11,000 injuries in the United States resulting from phone-related distraction while walking in the past few years. To explain the decision, mayor Kirk Caldwell sa

19、id, “We hold the unfortunate honor of being a major city (26) _ more pedestrians are hit in crosswalks than almost any other city in the country.”Under the fine systems. (27) _ breaks this law for the first time will get a fine of $15 to $35. People breaking the law for a second or third time will g

20、et a $99 fine. The law, which is called the Distracted Walking Law, does permit an exception. Pedestrians (28) _ use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers. If you still want to text while walking, you could avoid (29) _ (fi

21、ne) in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant. Or you could just wait (30) _ you are again, safely, off the street. Section BDirections: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one

22、 word more than you need. A. parental B. balance C. declined D. deposit E. downloaded F. engaging G. financial H. immediately I. listing J. deliberately K. purchasesGiving kids allowances in the smart-phoneAllowances are a constant. No matter how much technology interferes with the parent-child rela

23、tionship, kids still want money and parents still want to impart（赋予）a basic work ethic. But putting stickers on chore（日常事务）charts and dropping coins in piggy banks dont cut it with the smart-phone generation. Parents in search of more _31_ ways to teach children the value of money are turning to all

24、owance-tracking apps, where kids can see their _32_ rise and fall in real time. Bonnie Koon, a mother of three in Crawfordville, Fla., used to post a calendar on her refrigerator _33_ her kids chores, to the embarrassment of her 16-year-old twins. After seeing a Facebook ad for the app Green-light,

25、she _34_ it. Green-light links to parents bank accounts so that the payout can be seamless. Parents can encourage saving by paying interest on the money that isnt spent _35_ - interest out of the parents own pockets, of course. Its the first taste of _36_ freedom for many kids, and its set in a rela

26、tively safe environment. Parents can determine spending limits and choose the retailers（零售商）where a child can make _37_. If a child attempts to buy something at an unapproved store or to spend more than the limit, the transaction（交易）is _38_ and parents get a notification. And if a kid loses the card

27、, parents can immediately cancel it from the app. One of Ms. Koons twins. Brenna, works part time at a restaurant. Shes putting half of her pay check into a car-insurance savings fund she set up in the app, whit the goal of saving $450 by July. With each _39_, the app gives Brenna a progress update.

28、 Some parents might worry that relying on apps to get kids to do chores only encourages them to be on their phones more. But parents who have chosen this approach argue that they are meeting their kids where they are and that it takes the _40_ nagging（唠叨）out of the equation. The real-time look at th

29、eir accounts makes the concepts of saving and spending more tangible than reviewing a bank statement. III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits

30、 the context. If you like to take a walk in the woods in the United States or you prefer to decorate a tree at Christmas, you should know that climate change is making both of those activities a lot more _41_. Looking at two _42_ and economically important species - the Douglas fir and the Ponderosa

31、 pine - scientists found that fires and drought _43_ by climate change make new growth difficult, especially in low-elevation forests, according to a study published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Some forests in four regions in California, Colorado, the Northern Rock

32、ies and the southwestern part of the United States have crossed “a(n) _44_ climate tipping（转折）point for post-fire tree generation,” the study says. Climate conditions over the past 20 years have _45_ changes that would have taken decades or even centuries to _46_ across broad regions of the country.

33、 This is leading to the sudden _47_ of trees and making these lands increasingly unsuitable for tree regeneration. “Climate changes is _48_ our forests now, not just in some distant future. Maybe in areas where there are really _49_ seed sources, there could be some trees, but it is becoming really

34、hard to get these trees back due to climate change,” said study co-author Kim Davis. The problem probably wont get any better, as climate change is making intense wildfires much more _50_. Western foresters say there used to be a fire season. But devastating and _51_ fires have become a reality all

35、year long. In 2018, fire cost California more than $9.05 billion, according to the USA insurance commissioner, the deadliest and most destructive wildfires season in the _52_ history. A higher number of fires and low seed availability means a high probability that these trees in these regions wont c

36、ome back, Davis said. This study _53_ on the driest and hottest areas of the Western forests, but researchers will next try to focus on how much will be impacted. _54_, there are some things people can do to ease some of this problem. Forest management plans that reduce high-severity burns can help.

37、 Increasingly, forest managers are considering allowing some fires to burn under more moderate conditions, Davis said, Forest _55_.41. A. convenient B. difficult C. encouraging D. frustrating 42. A. ecologically B. apparently C. physically D. financially 43. A. destroyed B. worsened C. extended D. e

38、stablished 44. A. necessary B. enormous C. critical D. invisible 45. A. accelerated B. delayed C. eliminated D. strengthened 46. A. transform B. spread C. preserve D. escape 47. A. extinction B. decline C. tragedy D. increase 48. A. sustaining B. abandoning C. facilitating D. endangering 49. A. suff

A. world B. state C. human D. forest 53. A. concentrated B. depended C. insisted D. commented 54. A. As a result B. For example C. In fact D. W

40、hats more 55. A. savers B. managers C. researchers D. advocates Section BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the

41、 information given in the passage you have just read. (A)EU members states have agreed to ban a toxic substance widely found in clothing because it poses an “acceptable risk” to the environment. Countries voted in favor of extending existing restrictions on nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPE) to imports t

42、o clothing and other textile products. The measure is intended to protect species in water. Use of NPE in textile manufature in Europe was banned over 10 years ago but the substance is still released into the water environment through imported textiles being washed. NPE degrades in the environment i

43、nto substances including nonylphenol (NP), which accumulates in the bodies of fish and disturbs their hormones, harming fertility, growth and sexual development. NPE is used in textile manufacture as a cleaning and dyeing agent. The EU decision notes that several studies have found NPE to be present

44、 in textile items. A 2011 study by Greenpeace found NPE in two-thirds of clothes tested, including items sold by big-name brads such as Adidas, H&M, Lacoste, and Ralph Lauren. The NGO (Non-Governmental Organizations) argued that although concentrations of NPE found in the clothes were low, the chemi

45、cals existence in the environment posed a risk. The new ban on textiles containing NPE in concentrations equal to or greater than 0.01% will enter into force five years after it is adopted by the European Commission, which is likely to happen in September. In comments submitted to ECHA (European Che

46、micals Agency), clothing and textile firms have warned that obeying the restriction will be difficult because NPE ubiquitous in the supply chain and has numerous uses. The new restriction will not apply to second-hand goods or recycled textiles because it is assumed that these will already have been washed several times so they contain negligible（微不足道的）amounts of NPE. EU countries must eliminate pollution of water
