9、oggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles.In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent； in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McI

12、st water shortage.The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt （融雪）.Since the 1930s,

13、 McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.K语篇解读D本文是议论文。文章围绕加利福尼亚的大树从20世纪30年代以来大量减少这一主题，探讨出这一现象的

19、er their lifetimes, then, urban trees will likely absorb less CO2 from the air than forest trees.As we all know, the earth would be freezing or burning hot without COz.However, CO2 is a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps energy from the sun as heat.That makes temperatures near the ground rise.Human ac

20、tivities, especially the widespread burning of fossil （化石）fuels, have been sending extra greenhouse gases into the air.This has led to a rise in average temperatures across the globe.Studies had shown forests readily absorb CO2, but there hadnt been much data on whether city trees grow, die and abso

21、rb CO2 at the same rate as forest trees do.So some researchers decided to find out.To figure out how quickly trees were growing, researchers tracked their diameters （the width of their trunks） between 2005 and 2014.A trees diameter increases as it grows, just as a persons waist size increases as the

22、y gain weight.About half the weight of a tree is carbon, research has shown.Most of the rest is water.Over the nine years tracking, the researchers found city trees absorbed four times as much carbon from the air as forest trees.However, they were twice as likely to die.So over the lifetime of each

23、type of tree, forest trees actually absorbed more CO2.City trees grew faster because they had less competition for light from their neighbors.In a forest, trees tend to grow close together, shading their neighbors.Street trees also benefit from higher levels of nitrogen （氮）in rainwater.Nitrogen help

24、s plants grow.Waste gases from gas-burning cars also contain nitrogen, thus enriching city air with nitrogen.Later, rainwater may wash much of it to the ground.Some street trees may also have better access to water than trees in the country because the underground water pipes can leak.K语篇解读工本文是说明文。文

25、章阐述了一项新的研究发现：与长在森林中的树木相比，城市里的树木长得更快，但死得更早。32 .What can be known about CO2 from Paragraph 2?A.It is one of the side effects of greenhouses.B.It greatly accelerates the process of global warming.C.It results from the widespread burning of fossil fuels.D.It prevents the earth from becoming unsuitable t

26、o live on.K答 案X D K推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“the earth would be freezing or burning hot without CO2”可知，如果没有二氧化碳，地球将会极冷或极热。由此 可以推断，二氧化碳可以防止地球变得不适合居住。.Why did researchers track the diameters of trees?A.To know about their growth rates.B.To find out how much they weigh.C.To check whether they were healthy.D.To a

27、ssess the carbon amounts in them.K答 案H A K细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的uTo figure out how quickly trees were growing, researchers tracked their diameters ” 可知，研究 人员监测树木 的直径是为了了解树木的生长速度。.What advantage do city trees have over forest trees?A.They are more likely to access growth promoters.B.They can enjoy more wate

28、r coming from the air.C.They can enjoy more shade from neighbors.D.They are better at competing for light.K答 案U A K推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容可知，与生长在森林中 的树木相比，城市里的树木长得更快是因为它们无需与邻近的树木争夺光照，也 能得到更多的氮量，还更容易得到水。由此可以推断，城市里的树木比森林中的 树木更可能获得生长促进剂。X.What will probably be talked about if the passage is continued?A.How ur

29、ban trees can live longer.B.Why city living makes trees die young.C.How trees respond to dry soil conditions.D.Why faster-growing trees absorb more CO2.K答 案B K推理判断题。文章首句就提到了一项新的研究结果：城市里 的树木比森林中的树木长得更快，但死得更早。文章最后一段介绍了城市里的树 木比森林中的树木生长得更快的几个原因。由此可以推断，文章接下来很可能就 要介绍城市里的树木死得更早的原因。H第二节（共5小题；每题2.5分，总分值12.5分
