Geographers compare and contrast 21 places on the earth. But they also 22 beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 23 . The word geography 24 from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for “earth” and graphein, 25 means “to write”. The English word geography means “to describe the earth”. 26 geography books focus on a small area 27 a town or a city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or a(an) 28 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 29 to divide the study of 30 is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 31 starts with human beings and 32 how human beings and their environment act upon each other. But 33 geography is considered as a single subject, neither branch can neglect 34 .A man who works on geography might be described 35 one who observes, records, and explains the 36 between places. If places 37 alike, there would be little need for geographers.We know, however, 38 no two places are exactly the same. Geography, 39 , is a point of view, a special way of 40 at places.21.

D和E）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 AI walk into a room and wonder whos going to talk to me. Unavoidably, I fall into a self-conscious moment.Im waiting for my daughters to finish a gymnastics class, and I look around the waiting room. The lively chatter of mothers all around me makes me feel terribly alone. I dont belong in this group; Im an outsider to the world of little girls trying to finish their homework before the coach calls them in.Nobody is paying attention to me! Sulking in pity, I overhear a little girl ask her mother the difference between a homophone and a homonym.My specialty! I cant resist such questions. I have to assist. For the next 5 minutes, I find myself helping a 4th grader think of words that sound the same but are spelled differently (homophone) and words that sound the same and are spelled the same but mean different things (homonym).You cant help somebody else and also think about how neglected you feel. Its a strange phenomenon. It doesnt matter that Im supremely out of place here. Im serving somebody, and then, everything feels right. And in a powerful turn of events, the mother who once seemed so cliquish and perfect starts telling me about her life. Over homophones, Im learning about a lifetime of heartbreak.Each of those mothers might have their own story of loss. The room isnt what it seems; its nothing like it sounds. Beneath the clique and chatter, theres somebody who needs attention.Perhaps when I feel most alone, most forgotten, I need to look up, find a way to help and bless (even if its through homophones), and stop focusing on myself. I want to enter a room, take my eyes off of myself, and find the one who needs help.41. What does the author want to do the time she enters the waiting room?A. She wants to ask who would like to talk to her. B. She wants to be accepted among people already there.C. She wants to get her daughter back home for dinner.D.

The underlined sentence in the passage implies that A. You should help those who feel neglected.B. Helping others could stop you feeling neglected.C. If you feel neglected you wont help others.D. You cant help others when they pay no attention to you.44. Which statement of below is not true according to the passage?A. You are not the only one who feels helpless.B. Dont concentrate too much on yourself when you feel nervous.C. Find someone to help and then you may feel better.D. The world is not what you make it, but what you see and hear.BEver thought youd get to experience the smell of ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatras hair, or the scent （气味） of the sun? Visitors to the Reg Vardy Gallery will soon be able to do just thatThe gallery, at Sunderland University, England, is holding a new exhibition. If There Ever Was . It focuses on scent rather than sightThe creative idea is the brainchild of curator Robert BlacksonHis inspiration came from reading the book Fast Food Nation The book discussed the use of artificial chemicals to flavor things such as milkshakes, making them smell and taste like strawberries, when theyre not actually made from themA smell can often call up memories such as school dinners or a childhood holiday by the sea, but the smells on display, will allow visitors to experience smells their noses wont have been able to pick out before“Theres a whole variety of different smells, including some extinct flowers,” explains Blackson. “Some have been gone for hundreds of years”One extraordinary smell is the consequence of the first atomic bomb, dropped on Japan on August 6, 1945 There is also the smell of Cleopatras hair, based on incense that was popular among ancient EgyptiansThe Soviet Mir space station, which burnt up in the atmosphere in 2001, smells of charred（烧焦的）material（the space station caught fire）Among the strange smells is the “surface of the sun”“It is hard to sum upIt is an atmospheric smell, like walking into a room when the sun has been pouring in,” says Blackson. “It gives a freshness, a sun kissed feel with a bit of metalIf you can say something smells hot, this is it”A team of 11, including perfume designers, have been working on recreating the smells for the exhibitionJames Wong, a botanist at Botanic Gardens Conservation International, UK, helped in the recreation of the smells of four extinct flowering plantsHe did this by closely linking the extinct flowers with the smells of existing onesWith the help of historical reports of how the extinct flowers smelled, he was able to remix the smellThe exhibition runs until June 6Fourteen extinct and impossible smells are on display45What might be the best title of the passage?AThe Reg Vardy Gallery B Egyptian queen Cleopatras hairCA visit to a new exhibition D .The scents of ancient Egypt46Visitors can enjoy all of the following scents at the Reg Vardy Gallery EXCEPT Athe scent of ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatras hair.Bthe smells of charred material of the Soviet Mir space station.Cthe scent of having a childhood vacation by the sea.Dthe smell of the aftermath of the first atomic bomb dropped on Japan.47Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?AVisitors go to Reg Vardy Gallery to enjoy beautiful sightsBJames Wong managed to remix the smell by referring to some historical reportsCThe exhibition will last until July 6DThe scents visitors will smell are found in the tomb of the ancient Egyptian queen Cleopatra.48In which session are you likely to read the passage in a newspaper?AScience BEducation CEntertainment DEconomyCAs a parent you might never guess all the ways a good imagination benefits your child. It helps a preschooler: Develop social skillsAs children play pretend, they explore relationships between family members, friends and co-workers and learn more about how people interact. Playing doctor, they imagine how physicians care for their patients. Playing house, they learn more about how parents feel about their children. Imaginative play helps develop empathy for others. If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet, they are better able to help those in need. They become more willing to play fair, to share, and to cooperate. Build self-confidenceYoung children have very little control over their lives. Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child. It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.Boost intellectual growthUsing the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought. Children who can see a kings castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically. This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects, letters symbolize sounds, and so on. Practice language skillsKids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking. This helps boost their vocabulary, improve sentence structure and enhance communication skills. Work out fearsPlaying pretend can help children work out their fears and worries. When children role-play about the big, bad monster under the bed, they gain a sense of control over him and he doesnt seem quite so big or so bad. Imaginative play also helps kids vent confusing feelings they might have, such as anger toward a parent or rivalry(竞争) with a new sibling(兄弟姐妹). To encourage your youngsters imagination, read to him every day. Books offer children the opportunity to visit other worlds and create new ones of their own.

Despite countless warnings in recent years about the need to address a potential hunger crisis in poor countries and an energy crisis worldwide, world leaders failed to think ahead. The result is a global food crisis. Wheat, corn and rice prices have more than doubled in the past two years. And oil prices have increased more than three times since the start of 2020. These food-price increases, combined with increasing energy costs, will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even affect political stability. Practical solutions to these problems do exist, but well have to start thinking ahead and acting globally.Here are three steps to ease the current food crisis and avoid the potential for a global crisis. The first is to promote the dramatic success of Malawi, a country in southern Africa, which three years ago established a special fund to help its farmers get fertilizer and seeds with high productivity. Malawis harvest doubled after just one year. An international fund based on the Malawi model would cost a mere $10 per person annually in the rich world, or $10 billion altogether.Second, the U.S. and Europe should abandon their policies of paying partly for the change of food into biofuels (生物燃料). The U.S. government gives farmers a taxpayer-financed payment of 51 cents per gallon of ethanol (乙醇) changed from corn. There may be a case for biofuels produced on lands that do not produce foods tree crops, grasses and wood products but theres no case for the government to pay to put the worlds dinner into the gas tank.Third, we urgently need to weather-proof the worlds crops as soon and as effectively as possible. For a poor farmer, sometimes something as simple as a farm pond which collects rainwater to be used in dry weather can make the difference between a good harvest and a bad one. The world has already committed to establishing a Climate Adaptation Fund to help poor regions climate-proof vital economic activities such as food production and health care but has not yet acted upon the promise.53. An international fund based on the Malawi model would_.A. cost each of the developed countries $10 billion per yearB. aim to double the harvest in southern African countries in a yearC. decrease the food prices as well as the energy pricesD. give poor farmers access to fertilizer and highly productive seeds54. With the second step, the author expresses the idea that _.A. it is not wise to change food crops into gasB. it is misleading to put tree crops into the gas tankC. we should get alternative forms of fuel in any wayD. biofuels should be developed on a large scale55. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. A rain-collec
