The answer is yes. Boyan Slat has found a simple and cheap way to clean up the oceans.Six years ago, when he looked at the ocean with lots of rubbish, Slat felt very sad. “The rubbish doesnt go away by itself. It needs to be cleaned up，” he said to himself.The 16yearold teenager worked hard and came up with the idea of a cleaning design. He wanted to build fences in the ocean. With the help of waves, the fences could trap rubbish.In June 2014, he led an international team of 100 scientists and engineers and started a small experiment in the Pacific Ocean. The experiment lasted for one year. The result was surprising. It worked and it only cost a little money.Slat is now planning to build a long barrier in the ocean between Japan and South Korea. Perhaps one day, with Slats great project, our oceans will become clean again.第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。AMatt Froggatt used to be an insurance agent (保险代理人) in the City of London but now runs a sheep farm. “After 14 years in business, I found that the City had gone from a place which was exciting to work in to a grindno one was having fun any more. My break came when I got to know the manager of a hotel with one of the top 20 hotel restaurants in the country. Through supplying them, my reputation (名声) spread and now I also supply meat through mail order.”Ron Ablewhite was a manager in advertising but now makes a living as a painter. “My painting began as a hobby but I realised I was getting far more excitement out of it than out of working. Most people in their midforties need to get back to work immediatelythey need the money. But we had married young and our children didnt need our support. We went to the north of England，and many of our friends come up and visit us now.”Katherine Goodison has set up her own business in her London flat making hats. “My first job as a lawyer (律师) was fun, but the hours were terrible. Then I left. A lot of people said Id get bored, but that has never happened. I feel happier now. What I love about this job is that I know what I want and I can make decisions on my own.”Paul Drinkwater worked in finance (金融) for 16 years before working at the Life Centre in London. “I had been in financial markets from the age of 22, but I found the work boring. In 1989 I gave up the job and travelled for a year. I was interested in health, so I visited some of the worlds best gymnasiums. Then I was offered parttime work at the Life Centre and I learned quickly. I never used to feel in control, but now I have peace of mind and control of my own life.”【文章大意】本文是应用文。文章主要介绍了四位不同职业的人士更换工作的经历。21According to the text, Matt Froggatt _.A. has become tired of city lifeB. lived in London for ten yearsC. runs a farm with different animalsD. used to be the manager of a hotel解析：A细节理解题。由第一节中的I found that the City had gone from a place which was exciting to work in to a grindno one was having fun any more可知，Matt Froggatt对于城市生活已经感到厌倦了，故选A项。22Which of the following people works in the clothing business?A. Matt Froggatt.B. Ron Ablewhite.C. Paul Drinkwater.D. Katherine Goodison.解析：D细节理解题。由第三节中的Katherine Goodison has set up her own business in her London flat making hats可知，她从事服装行业，故选D项。23What would be the best title for the text?A. A new lifeB. A small worldC. A dream homeD. An unusual job解析：A标题归纳题。总览全文可知，文章主要介绍了四位不同职业的人士更换工作的经历，他们都是放弃了之前的工作，然后开始了新的生活，故用A项作为标题最恰当。BIt might be difficult to accept, but a new way to live happily with teenagers is for parents to look at their own behaviour.“The key to getting teenagers to respect (尊重) you is to respect them first，”says Penny Palmano, who has written a bestselling book on teenagers，“You cant continue to treat them the same way that you have been treating them for the last 12 years: they have opinions that count. Imagine if youd spent two hours getting ready to go out for the evening and someone said, Youre not going out looking like that, are you？ Youd be very upset and youd never say that to an adult(成年人)”Palmano, who has two daughters aged 19 and 16, has even allowed the children to hold several teenage parties at her home.“Ive found that if you have brought them up to do the right thing, and then believe in them, usually theyll behave well，” she says. “I make them sandwiches and leave them alone. But I make it clear that they have to clean up. Ive never had a problem; in fact, the kitchen was sometimes cleaner than Id left it.”She agrees that teenagers can be annoying (恼人的): enjoying a world that is free of responsibility, yet in great need of independence. She doesnt think, however, that they are trying to annoy you. Until recently, scientists discovered that the part of the brain that controls common sense and feelings is not fully developed until the early twenties.“This would explain why many teenagers cant make good decisions, control their feelings, or focus on several different things at the same time，” says Palmano.She suggests showing a bit of consideration when it comes to other things, too. “Dont criticise (批评) teenagers for having an untidy room, then suddenly criticise them for other things. On these occasions (场合), parents are likely to mention all the other things that they may or may not have done wrong.”【文章大意】本文是议论文。文章主要讨论了父母如何与青少年孩子友好相处。24With children growing up to be teenagers, parents _.Aare more likely to treat them like adultsBare more willing to accept their opinionsCshould show more consideration for themDbecome more worried about their relationship解析：C推理判断题。根据第二段中的The key to getting teenagers to respect you is to respect them first和You cant continue to treat them the same way that you have been treating them for the last 12 years可知，当孩子处于青少年阶段时，家长应该多顾及孩子的情绪等需要。25Palmano mentions her daughters holding parties at home to show the importance of _.Atrust BcareClistening Dcommunication解析：A推理判断题。第三段中的believe in them是关键信息，由此可知，Palmano举自己女儿在家举办派对的事例是想说明家长对孩子信任的重要性。26In Palmanos opinion, teenagers _.Aarent annoying at allBdont cause trouble on purposeChave a strong sense of responsibilityDhave problems expressing their feelings解析：B细节理解题。根据第四段中的She doesnt think, however, that they are trying to annoy you以及下一段中Palmano说的This would explain why many teenagers .可知，Palmano认为青少年并不是存在找茬，他们有时之所以会惹人厌是因为他们大脑的某个部分并没有发育完全。27We can infer from the last paragraph that parents _.Ashould learn to hide their feelingsBexpect too much from their childrenCshould choose their arguments carefullyDusually criticise their children too heavily解析：C推理判断题。根据最后一段的内容可知，家长很可能前一分钟批评孩子的卧室不够整洁，下一分钟就开始批评孩子的其他行为，将孩子批评得一无是处。因此，Palmano在最后一段所说的内容是想指出：家长应该慎重选择批评的内容，切忌劈头盖脸地胡乱批评。CPassenger pigeons(旅鸽) were the most common birds in all of North America in the 1800s. It was common to see large groups of passenger pigeonsgroups that made a sound like a storm. But today, they are extinct because of human behavior. Now, some scientists want to bring passenger pigeons back to life by using new technology and scientific ideas. They call this process deextinction.Deextinction has not happened yet. It is still just an idea. The process of deextinction is not easy. First, scientists must collect DNA from the bodies of extinct animals. Then they will put it in the eggs of similar animal species. When these animals become adults, they will have babies. And these baby animals will have the DNA of the extinct animals.Scientists believe it is possible to bring back passenger pigeons and many other animals.However, not everyone thinks this is a good idea.Stuart Primm is the worlds leading expert on modern animal extinction. He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth. On one hand, these animals no longer have a safe place to live. On the other hand, they could cause other animals to die.Many other scientists do not agree with Stuart Primm. Stuart Brand, a writer and scientist, is one of them. He believes deextinction is good for many reasons.“The current generation (当代) of children will experience the return of some unusual animals in their lifetime. It may be part of what defines their generation and their attitude to the natural world. They will take their parents to zoos to see the growing populations of passenger pigeons, and maybe even dodo birds, This will provide a good deal of money for zoos busy with extinct species restoration (恢复). Humans killed off a lot of species over the last 10,000 years. So, its right to bring some back to life，” he said.【文章大意】本文是议论文。文章主要讨论了灭绝物种复活这一新科技。28In the 19th century, passenger pigeons _.Awere common sightingsBsuffered a lot from stormsClived mainly in North AmericaDwere the largest in American history解析：A细节理解题。根据第一段中的Passenger pigeons were the most common birds in all of North America in the 1800s. It was common to see large groups of passenger pigeonsgroups that made a sound like a storm可知，19世纪时的旅鸽数目众多。29What do we know about deextinction?AIt will change the DNA of the extinct animals.BIt was first used in passenger pigeons.CIt is difficult to carry out.DIt proved to be useful.解析：C细节理解题。根据第二段中的The process of deextinction is not easy以及接下来具体介绍灭绝物种复活的复杂过程可知，复活灭绝物种绝非易事。30Why is Stuart Primm against bringing back extinct animals?AThey will die very soon.BThey will create other problems.CThey will do great harm to humans.DThey will replace the similar species.解析：B推理判断题。根据第四段中的He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth, these animals no longer have a safe place to live和they could cause other animals to die可知，Stuart Primm反对灭绝物种复活是因为他认为这些复活的动物会造成一些新的问题。31How does Stuart Brand feel about deextinction?AWrong BDifficult.CImportant. DWasteful.解析：C观点态度题。根据倒数第二段中的He believes deextinction is good for many reasons以及Stuart Brand在最后一段具体陈述灭绝物种复活的好处可知，他认为复活灭绝物种很重要。DGeorge Watford works at the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in New York City. He gets some unusual phone calls. One day, he got a call about a mountain lion living in a small building. “We didnt believe it，” Watford said. “But when we went out there, sure enough, there was a mountain lion sitting at the front window looking out at us.” The big cats owner knew that his neighbors were unhappy about the animal. He didnt try to stop us taking it away.In one year, the ASPCA took in 9, 459 different animals, not counting cats and dogs. That number includes a lot of rabbits and monkeys, but the ASPCA has also taken many other exotic (外来的) pets from peoples homes, These animals cant be set free into the wild because they wouldnt survive. The ASPCA tries to find homes for them in zoos or special areas for animals.Its against the law to sell wild animals in New York City. Many buildings dont even allow dogs and cats, not to mention more exotic animals. Still, the ASPCA takes away most of the exotic animals not because of complaints (怨言), but because the pets owner needs help. A lovely baby lion or bear will finally grow up to be dangerous. “When they bite (咬人), it isnt because they hate you. Its because theyre wild animals，” said exotic animal expert Kathi Travers.Travers is quick to give speeches against raising wild animals as pets. Too often people think that caring for a wild animal is the same as caring for a dog or a cat. “To love an animal is not enough，” Travers said. “There has to be respect (尊重), and respect is not taking an animal, sticking it in a little cage, and expecting the animal to be happy.”【文章大意】本文是说明文，纽约有很多人将野生动物当宠物养。32When he got the call, Watford felt _.Aexcited BsurprisedCfearful Dangry解析：B细节理解题。根据第一段的We didnt believe it可知，Watford感到很惊讶。33When it finds an exotic animal in the city, the ASPCA _.Akeeps it until it grows upBsets it free into the wildChelps find it a homeDsells it to a zoo解析：C细节理解题。根据第二段的The ASPCA tries to find homes for them in zoos or special areas for animals.可知。34What can we infer from Paragraph 3?APet owners cant really control a wild animal.BA baby wild animal behaves badly at home.CWil
