After all, the chance to develop an area almost five times the size of Manhattan does not come frequently. But to everyone a surprise, the owners did not sell the land that lies just 20 minutes from Fort Myers to the highest bidder. Instead, they sold it to Kitson & Partners who not only promised to preserve part of the land，but also use the remaining area to build an environmentally friendly town. True to their word, as soon as the sale closed, the developers sold 73,000 acres to the government of Florida ss part of the largest single land preservation agreement in the states history. Over the last decade，the slate and county officials have worked hard at restoring the wetlands and other waterways? in what is now known as the Babcock Nature Preserve. Their efforts have resulted in the return of many native birds and plants that had disappeared from the region. However, for some reason, it was not until Earth Day 2016 (April 22) that the developers finally revealed their plans for Americas first “green” community. On the surface, Babcock Ranch, which will be home to about 50,000 residents when completed, appears to be just like a typical small American town. It will have a downtown * hiking trails, a wellness center, and even a man-made lake that residents can use for recreational activities like kayaking. However, this is where the similarities end. Unlike most American cities, the homes in Babcock Ranch will not be powered by polluting fossil fuels like coal or oil. Instead, the residents will get their energy from a solar farm. On cloudy days or at night, the grid(电网）powered by clean natural gas will take over. According to Kitson，“The combination of energy will he the greenest in the country. 28.What made Kitson & Partners succeed in buying the large vacant land?A. They offered the highest price.B. They had good relationship with the owners.C.They promised to change the land into a modem city.D. Their plans for the land were good for the environment.29. What can we know about the Babcock Nature Preserve?A. It is 73,000 miles from Fort Myers.B. It is developed by the government.C. It is the largest reserve in the world.D. It is five times the size of Manhattan.30. What will make Babcock Ranch different from a typical American town?A. Its appearance.B. Its friendly residents.C. Its combination of energy.D. Its wellness center.31. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?(：PaMgraph 1；= Paragraph2； = Pamgraph3；=Paragraph 4；=Paragraph 5 )D Most airlines go all out to ensure their passengers have the best possible flight experience. Now, Europes low-budget airline, easy Jet, wants to extend the positive experience beyond the plane ride with “Sneakairs” 一smart shoes that allow visitors to explore new cities and towns without ever looking at a map.Z To transform Sneakairs from an ordinary shoe to a tour guide，all the wearer has to do is enter his or her desired destination into the easyJet smartphone app. A built-in GPS will determine the wearer? s starting location while the Google Maps navigation (导航）tool will help chart the best route. Whenever a change of direction is necessary, the app will communicate with die appropriate shoe via the Bluetooth and cause it to vibrate(振动）.For example f if the wearer needs to turn right, he/she will feel the sensation in the right shoe. Should the user miss the turn, the smart shoes will both vibrate at the same time, reminding him/her to change course. Visitors that wander off the suggested path or decide to take a break for a cup of coffee or a meal have nothing to worry about. The smart app will automatically determine the new location and chart out a new route. Once the desired destination is reached, Sneakairs will vibrate three times to inform the user of the arrival and then go back to being ordinary shoesuntil their navigation services are needed again! Sneakairs is certainly not the first navigation shoe in the market. However, easyJet is the first airline to offer them to passengers just as they are about to land in an unknown city. However, before Sneakairs can go mainstream, the easyJet team still needs to make some adjustments. Among the challenges that need to be addressed is the smart shoes three-hour battery life, which is hardly enough for a tourist to catch all the delights a new city or town has To offer!32. What can we learn aboutSneakairs inthe text?A. Its size. B. Itsprice.C.Its material.D. Itsfunction,33. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 2?A. How Sneakairs works.B. How visitors choose routes.C. How users avoid getting lost.D. What users should pay attention to.33. What might easy Jet do to improve its smart shoes?A.Bring down iheir cost. B. Add more functions.C. Develop more types.D. Make the battery last longer.34. Where does this text probably come from?A. commercial ad. B. A science report.C. A tourist map. D. An airline guide.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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Making the Most of Life Experiences If you ask anyone what the purpose of life is，youll likely receive wildly different responses.
