The Amazon is key to the health of the entire planet. It is the largest rainforest in the world, 1 (rough) half the size of the United States. Statistics show that nearly 20% of the oxygen 2 (produce) by the Earth’s land comes from the Amazon rainforest. It also puts an enormous amount of water into the atmosphere at a time 3 cities are drying up.

It’s not the only major forest in danger Nearly half of the world’s forests that 6 (stand) when humans started farming are now gone.

【解析】

這是一篇說明文。統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)顯示,地球陸地產(chǎn)生的氧氣有近20%來自亞馬遜雨林。從太空拍攝的圖像顯示,亞馬遜雨林正在以創(chuàng)紀錄的速度燃燒,煙霧覆蓋了巴西的大部分地區(qū)。當人類開始農(nóng)耕時,世界上幾乎一半的森林都消失了。

1考查副詞。句意:它是世界上最大的雨林,大約有美國一半大小。此處表示“大約”應用副詞roughly。故填roughly。

2考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結構可知,produce在句中作非謂語動詞,與邏輯主語oxygen構成被動關系,故用過去分詞。故填produced。

3考查定語從句。本句為定語從句,修飾先行詞time,且先行詞在從句中做時間狀語,故用關系副詞when。故填when。

4考查連詞。句意:但現(xiàn)在它正在以創(chuàng)紀錄的速度燃燒——從太空拍攝的圖像顯示,煙霧覆蓋了巴西的大部分地區(qū)。結合上下文語境可知為轉折關系,應用連詞but。句首字母要大寫。故填But

5考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結構可知,show在句中作非謂語動詞,與邏輯主語images構成主動關系,故用現(xiàn)在分詞。故填showing。

6考查動詞時態(tài)。stand在從句中做謂語動詞,且根據(jù)后文when humans started farming可知,應用一般過去時。故填stood

7考查介詞。句意:其主要原因是農(nóng)業(yè)向森林地區(qū)的擴展。此處為名詞所有格,表示“農(nóng)業(yè)向森林地區(qū)的擴展”應用介詞of。故填of。

8考查冠詞。句意:全世界80%90%的熱帶森林消失都是由它造成的。loss為名詞,此處特指“熱帶森林消失”應用定冠詞the。故填the。

9考查動詞語態(tài)。本句中主語與謂語動詞構成被動關系,且can后跟動詞原形。故填be slowed。

10考查名詞單復數(shù)。句意:雨林聯(lián)盟表示,你們100%的貢獻將幫助巴西立即停止森林砍伐。根據(jù)上文your為形容詞性物主代詞修飾名詞,應填名詞contribution,contribution既可視為可數(shù)名詞,也可視為可數(shù)名詞,故此處還可以使用復數(shù)形式。故填contribution(s)。

Passing exams are every student's dream. Fail them is their frightening dream. So, to realize our dreams, many students try anything. They even go to fortunetellers, buy lucky charms and follow lots of old custom. In Korea, many students bury something personal in the university they want to enter. They believed that those things are amazing and will “pull" them into the university. If it works or not, nobody real knows. At least it does ease the students' minds about passing exams. Remembering, though, you can't always rely luck. There is no substitute for a hard work.

【題目】 “Suzanne Meyer, the assistant director of the English Language Institute at the University of Tennessee, says that many students need to learn how to collect information, and then evaluate the information and apply it to a new context. Meyer says: “1 . Question-asking activities help students to become better language learners. Question-asking may help develop critical thinking skills by allowing for more interactions.2 . When they are confident, they can have more interaction. That extra interaction might lead to critical thinking.”

How can you practice asking questions? There are many strategies to improve question-asking and develop critical thinking skills. 3 .

If students were reading a new text, they would design a series of questions using three different steps. In the first step, students create questions about information in the text that they are reading. In the second step, students create questions about how the information in the text connects to their own life. In the third step, students create questions about abstract ideas – ideas that came up in the questions about themselves.4 .

Practical Tips: Meyer says that when teachers tell students which questions to answer, students are less likely to be creative about the types of questions that they ask. 5 . Try making a list of questions that go from concrete to abstract. Check with your teacher to make sure that your grammar is correct, and try to practice in the classroom.

A.So, practice developing your own questions!

B.People who can ask questions should be very confident.

C.People can ask questions freely when they feel relaxed.

D.If people take some steps, they can find some useful question-asking patterns.

E.There are many benefits to using question-asking activities with English learners.

F.One possible strategy is to use question-asking patterns that start with concrete questions and move to abstract questions.

G.If students follow these three steps, they have not only practiced creative ways to ask questions, they have also started practicing critical thinking.

【題目】 Every year, billions of kilograms of fresh produce are wasted in the United States. Meanwhile, millions of poor Americans go hungry, without access to healthy and affordable meals.

Evan Lutz is enthusiastic about correcting that social injustice. And he combines that goal with enthusiasm for business. Lutz is CEO and founder of Hungry Harvest, a business which collects and sells “ugly” produce. These are fruits and vegetables that most food companies would throw away. More than six billion pounds are wasted each year due to surface imperfections.

“So I’ll give you an example.” Lutz says, “If you go to a grocery store you will see all the produce lineup shiny, perfect, of the same size and color. But on a farm, everything doesn’t grow the same way. So all that stuff that doesn’t grow the same way often gets thrown out. And what we do is take all that normally gets thrown out because of its odd size or shape, box it up and deliver it to our customers once a week.”

For Evan Lutz, giving back to others came form his upbringing. “When I was growing up, my parents taught me the values of giving back, and giving is a lot more powerful than receiving. We sell produce with a purpose and that doesn’t just mean we reduce food from going to waste. We hire people that were formerly in prison or were formerly injured or sick living in homeless shelters. They really wanted to get back on their feet for a second chance in life.”

2What business does Hungry Harvest mainly do?

Ladies and gentlemen,

Good afternoon! My name is Li Zilin and I am 9 years old. I came from Chengdu, capital of southwest Chinas Sichuan Province. Today I am very honor to share with you my understanding of youth power in climate action. After I came here, I hosted an activity at my school about pandas and climate change aware. More students have learned that the climate change is endangering pandas.

For myself, my pledge are “l(fā)ove pandas, love the earth”. Since pandas have survived changes on earth for more than a million years and are always thought on as living fossils, we show the bio-diversity of the nature.

The 2020 UN Biodiversity Conference will held in Kunming of China the next year. We sincere welcome you to China, to the Biodiversity Conference, to know about pandas and to see Chinese youth in action.

Thank you very much!
