Unfortunately, neither of my parents drove, and Disneyland was located out in the orange groves(小树林) of Anaheim. Even if we found the rides, the cost was more than my family could afford.In June 1956, my sister graduated from high school. As a gift, one of her girlfriends parents took them to Disneyland. I was happy for my sister but upset that I wouldnt be going. After all, no sister wants her little brother tagging along（紧跟）.After I had spent a few days moping around, my sister told my parents that I would go with her and her friend if I had the money for admission and ride tickets. I dont know where my parents found the money, but I soon had enough for admission and one “A to E”ride ticket book. That week, I counted down the hours until the day that I would go to the home of Mickey, Donald, and my favorite Goofy.My day at Disneyland was a joyful blur of rides and attractionsand one moment Ill never forget. As I exited the adventurous Jungle Boat ride, I noticed a long line of kids waiting for something. I soon discovered that several of the Mickey Mouse Club Mouseketeers were signing autographs（签名）. When I looked to see who was there, my heart almost stopped. It was my first true love, Annette Funicello! I waited for what seemed like forever until it was finally my turn to approach the table where the Mouseketeers were sitting. I still remember Annette smiling at me, asking for my name and then signing a picture for me.As I was exiting the Mouseketeer area, a big man stopped me and asked who my favorite Disney character was. I told him, and he quickly sketched（素描） a drawing of Goofy and signed it for me. That man was Roy Williams, a cartoonist who appeared on the Mickey Mouse Club.Over the years, I lost my autographed photo of Annette, but I still have my drawing of Goofy. I take it out occasionally to remember that wonderful day of my childhood. My wife recently had the sketch framed（装框） for my 65th birthday. It is now prominently（显眼地） displayed in our home. Friends often ask if the drawing has any value. I always tell them that its priceless.24. What had made it impossible for the author to go to Disneyland?A. Disneyland was too expensive for his family.B. His parents couldnt afford the time off to travel.C. Disneyland was too far away from his home.D. His sister didnt want to take him.25. When the author “moped around”, he was probably .A. unhappy B. excited C. eager D. astonished 26. What is the authors unforgettable moment at Disneyland?A. The adventurous Jungle Boat ride.B. Varieties of rides and attractions.C. Getting autographs from Annette Funicello.D. Receiving a signed sketch from Roy Williams.27. Why does the author always tell friends that the drawings priceless?A. Because he had the drawing valuated.B. Because it carries the best memory of his childhood.C.

CWhen she first started learning about climate change from one of her elders, Fawn Sharp was invited on a helicopter flight over the Olympic Mountains to survey the Mount Anderson glacier(冰川).But the glacier was gone, melted away by the warming climate.Sharp, president of the Quinault Indian Nation, Washington, US, remembers a deep sense of loss when she discovered the glacier wasnt there anymore.Loss is a growing issue for people working and living on the front lines of climate change. And that gave Jennifer Wren Atkinson, a full-time lecturer at the University of Washington Bothell, US, an idea for a class.This quarter, she taught students on the Bothell campus about the emotional burdens of environmental study. She drew on the experiences of Native American tribes， scientists and activists，and asked her 24 students to face the reality that there is no easy fixthat “this is such an intractable problem that theyre going to be dealing with it for the rest of their lives.”Student Cody Dillon used to be a climate science skeptic（怀疑论者）Then he did his own reading and research, and changed his mind Dillon isnt going into environmental workhes a puter science major. Yet, the potential for a worldwide environmental catastrophe seemed so real to him five years ago that he quit his job and became a full-time volunteer for an environmental group that worked on restoration projects But six months into the work, he decided that wasnt the right response, either. I didnt really feel like I had an impact, he said.Atkinsons class was just what he was looking for-a place where he could discuss his concerns about a changing climate, and also learn more about whats being done in response. You really see the amount of passion and drive a lot of these activists are putting in, he said.Atkinson said she hopes the class helped her students prepare themselves for the amount of environmental loss that will happen over their lifetimes.“We are already transforming the planet- so many species and munities are going to be lost, displaced or massively（巨大地）impacted, she said. The future isnt going to be what they imagined.Lauren Morrison. another student, said she felt empowered by learning about climate change actions around the globe.“Its easy to feel defeated, but all over the world, people are stepping up,” she said28. Why did the author mention the case of Fawn Sharp?A. To lay a basis for Fawn Sharps further researchB. To lead into the issue of loss caused by climate change.C. To show scientists concern about the Mount Anderson glacier.D. To show Fawn Sharps work is similar to Atkinsons29. Whats the main purpose of Atkinsons class?A. To help students face emotional impact of a warming planet.B. To explore how different people deal with climate changeC. To find solutions to the Olympic Mountains environmental issueD. To make students aware of the current state of the global climate30. The underlined word “intractable” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .A. simpleB. interestingC. plicatedD. mon31. How did Atkinsons class influence Dillon?A. It changed his mind and aroused his interest in climate science.B. It made him realize a planet-wide climate disaster would happenC. It encouraged him to be more involved in environmental protection.D. It inspired him to work on restoration projects for the environment.DWhen a laptop or smart phone battery starts losing its power, the only options are to buy an expensive replacement, or just keep it lugged in（接通电源的） all the time But one woman may have found the answer to this problem.Mya Le Thai is a scientist studying at the University of California. She recently discovered a process that may lead to batteries that last forever. Thai said she had been frustrated that the batteries for her wireless devices degraded over time, until they failed to charge fully. Thai did not like having to keep her laptop connected to an electrical outlet (电源插座）to keep it powered on. So, she decided to do something about that problem. At first, she and her team at UC Irvine thought about inventing a new battery. But as they experimented, Thai discovered something that might permit Lithiumion（锂离子） batteries to last foreverLithium-ion batteries power most wireless devices. Over time, the batteries lose the ability to hold a charge. Most of these batteries have a life span of about 7,000 charging cycles before they die. One of the reasons lithium-ion batteries degrade is their use of nanowires to carry electricity. Nanowires are extremely thin. A human hair is thousands of times thicker, for example. Nanowires are extremely efficient carriers of electricity, which makes them useful in batteries. But Thai said their thinness also makes them weak. “Nanowires break and fracture over time.she said Thats why they lose capacity.But, Thai had a theory-the nanowires might last longer if covered with a gel（凝胶） She and her team tested this theory“ It was a long process and a lot of work, Thai said. The team tried many coverings for the wires. PMMA, a type of plastic, was one of them. The nanowires were coated with PMMA and cycled through charges 200,000 times. The PMMA-coated nanowires showed no evidence of damage. The results suggest that batteries could last forever, without losing charging ability. Thai said 200,000 cycle amount to about three months on just one device.Thai hopes to continue her research to understand why this gel works so well and to see if any other gel could create better results. Mya Le Thai said she is enjoying the publicity about her discovery. She said she never expected her research to get media coverage. Its kind of cool, she said. Im really glad people are showing interest in my work and not just in the work itself, but also in technology and energy.32. What caused Thai to work on lithium-ion batteries?A. She found that batteries gradually wear out.B She disliked the batteries for her laptopC. She thought batteries were too expensive.D. She and her team were assigned to invent a new battery.33. Which of the following sentences is TRUE about nanowires?A. They are too weak to carry electricity.B They last only 7, 000 charging cycles.C. They are the main cause of battery degradingD. They are not suitable to use in batteries34. The breakthrough may most probably lie in_.A. a new kind of batteryB. new materials for batteriesC. coating nanowires in gelD. a new way of charging batteries35. What may be the best title for the passage?A. Why batteries are degradingB. Scientist invents life-long batteryC. Nanowires discovered by scientistD. Nanowires trying on new coating第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Swimming at the beach or in a backyard pool are well-known Australian summer activities.
