B.Objective. C.Unclear. D.Doubtful.【答案】24.B25.D26.C27.A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种名为SWIFT的自行车游戏，介绍了其原理、优势以及人们对此的态度。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Thiswouldmeanspendinghourseveryweekworkingout,stretchingandsweatingourwaytobetterhealth,whichissomethingthatisparticularlydifficultwhenyouglanceattheweatheroutsideandseedarkcloudsonthehorizon.(这意味着每周要花几个小时锻炼，伸展身体，挥汗如雨，以获得更好的健康，当你看一眼外面的天气，看到地平线上乌云密布时，这是特别困难的事情。)”可知，为什么作者和他的伴侣很难保持日常锻炼是因为不适宜的天气。故选B项。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据二段第一句“SWIFTisacyclinggamethatyoucontrolbypedalingyourrealbike,whichisfixedontoadevicecalledaturbo-trainer.(《SWIFT》是一款自行车游戏，玩家可以通过踩着固定在涡轮训练器上的真正的自行车来控制它。)”以及第三段“So,afterrestoringoursmallgarageandsigningupfora$12permonthsubscription,wehadourTV,bikeandall-importantcoolingfanreadytogo.(因此，在修复了我们的小车库并签订了每月12美元的订阅费后，我们准备好了电视、自行车和最重要的冷却风扇)”可知，文中提到yourrealbike，Aturbo-trainer，signingupfora$12permonthsubscription可知，SWIFT用户用到的是冷却风扇，涡轮训练器，每月12元的订阅费，因此户外跑步设备不是SWIFT用户必须的。故选D项。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段“Thegeniusofthedesignisthatithasusedlotsofthetricksoftraditionalvideogamestokeeppushingyoualittlebitfurtherandharder:goalittlefaster,andyou’llberewardedwithalittleachievementmarker,andifyoupedalharder,youmightwinaraceagainstanotherrealplayer.(这款游戏的设计之处在于，它使用了许多传统电子游戏的技巧，不断推动玩家走得更远、更努力：走得快一点，你就会得到一个小小的成就标记，如果你踩得更用力，你可能会赢得与另一名真正玩家的比赛。)”可知，为什么SWIFT的设计吸引了用户是因为它使用电子游戏技巧为表现提供奖励。故选C项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Todaymanyothercompaniesinthetechindustryarechasingthesameaudience,andtheyalloffertheirownuniquetwistsontheformula.(如今，科技行业的许多其他公司都在追逐同样的受众，他们都在这个公式上提供了自己独特的新花样。)”可推知，科技行业对SWIFT持支持态度。故选A项。CMorethanone-thirdoftheworld’sfoodiswastedorthrownaway,mostofwhichendsupinlandfills,producingverylargeamountsofplanet-warminggreenhousegases.Now,manystudiesshowthatitisbecominghardertogrowenoughfoodtofeedanincreasingpopulationduetoclimatechangeandsoildegradation.Butoneofthemostpromisingandsimplestsolutionsliesintheproblemitself:thiswastedfood—ifcomposted(堆肥)—couldslowclimatechangeandimprovesoilquality.Higher-qualitysoilalsocontinuestoabsorbmorecarbonfromtheatmosphere,helpingtoimproveplantsandcontributingfurthertofightingclimatechange.ReturningonetonoforganicmattertoeachhectareofsoilwouldincreasetheproductionofcerealcropseachyearinAfrica,AsiaandSouthAmericabymillionsoftons.Whileitistruethatpeoplecancompostintheiryards,communitygardens,orevenontheirkitchencounters,larger-scaleefforts,includinginfrastructure(基础设施)andincentives(激励)forconsumers,wouldtakeittothenextlevel.Imagineifconsumerscouldjustleaveunwantedfoodinaroadsidebinforpickup,ordropitoffatalocalstore,earningafewcentsabucket,justlikewhathasbeenofferedforrecyclingbottlesornewspapers.Moreover,inthecaseofcomposting,thepaymentincentivesystemwouldbesustainablebecausetheend-productofcompostcanbesoldtofarmers,makingitaneconomicallyworkablemodel,somethingthatisoftenlackinginrecycling,especiallyforcertainmaterials,likemanytypesofplastics.Eventually,morewidespreadcompostingoffoodwouldpavethewayforsolutionstoadditionalwastechallenges,suchasthedisposalofpackagingandclothing.Thiswillhaveotherpositiveeffectsaswell;ifmoreconsumerscompost,companieswillbemoreinspiredtomakeandusecompostablepackaging,clothing,andotherproducts.Whilemorecompostableitemsarestartingtoemergetoday,additionalcompostingwillfurtherdrivedemandandinnovation,andofferagame-changingsolutionfortheplanet.28.Whatisparagraph1mainlyabout?A.Theunevendistributionoffoodaroundtheworld.B.Theburdenofpopulationgrowthontheplanet.C.Theurgencyofproperlydealingwithwastedfood.D.Thegreatimpactofclimatechangeonfood.29.Whatcanbelearnedabouttheapproachtocompostingwastedfood?A.Agoodsystemisneededtocarryoutiteffectively.B.Itwouldtakealongtermtohaveaneffect.C.Itisonlyworkableonasmallscale.D.Itmayraisepeople’sawarenessofreducingfoodwaste.30.Whatdoestheauthorthinkofthepaymentincentivesystemofcompostingfood?A.Itishighlyprofitable.B.Itiseasytocarryout.C.Itisasustainableeconomiccyclepattern.D.Itismoreeffectivethanotherrecyclingsystems.31.Whatcanbeasuitabletitleforthetext?A.HowWastedFoodCouldBeReducedB.HowWastedFoodCouldSavethePlanetC.HowWastedFoodCouldImpactHumansD.HowWastedFoodCouldBecomeaBusiness【答案】28.C29.A30.C31.B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讨论了全球食物浪费问题，指出浪费的食物如果进行堆肥，可以减缓气候变化、改善土壤质量，并形成一个可持续的经济循环模式，并为解决其他废物问题铺平道路。【28题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Morethanone-thirdoftheworld’sfoodiswastedorthrownaway,mostofwhichendsupinlandfills,producingverylargeamountsofplanet-warminggreenhousegases.Now,manystudiesshowthatitisbecominghardertogrowenoughfoodtofeedanincreasingpopulationduetoclimatechangeandsoildegradation.(世界上超过三分之一的食物被浪费或扔掉，其中大部分最终被填埋，产生了大量导致地球变暖的温室气体。现在，许多研究表明，由于气候变化和土壤退化，越来越难以种植足够的粮食来养活不断增长的人口)”可知，段中主要介绍了被浪费的食物对环境的影响和导致的粮食短缺问题，表明了妥善处理浪费食物的紧迫性。故选C项。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“Whileitistruethatpeoplecancompostintheiryards,communitygardens,orevenontheirkitchencounters,larger-scaleefforts,includinginfrastructure(基础设施)andincentives(激励)forconsumers,wouldtakeittothenextlevel.(虽然人们确实可以在院子里、社区花园甚至厨房柜台上堆肥，但更大规模的努力，包括基础设施建设和对消费者的激励，将把它提升到一个新的水平)”可推知，虽然在院子里、社区花园甚至厨房柜台上也可以进行堆肥，但这种小规模的堆肥行为效率不高。由此可知，我们需要有一个更优的系统来提升堆肥的效率。故选A项。【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中“Imagineifconsumerscouldjustleaveunwantedfoodinaroadsidebinforpickup,ordropitoffatalocalstore,earningafewcentsabucket,justlikewhathasbeenofferedforrecyclingbottlesornewspapers.(想象一下，如果消费者可以把不需要的食物放在路边的垃圾箱里，让别人来捡，或者把它们扔到当地的商店里，每桶能赚几美分，就像回收瓶子或报纸一样)”和第四段中“Moreover,inthecaseofcomposting,thepaymentincentivesystemwouldbesustainablebecausetheend-productofcompostcanbesoldtofarmers,makingitaneconomicallyworkablemodel(此外，在堆肥的情况下，支付激励制度将是可持续的，因为堆肥的最终产品可以卖给农民，使其成为一种经济上可行的模式)”可知，作者认为支付激励系统让人们可以通过食物回收获得一些小额报酬，而回收后最终的堆肥产品可以卖给农民，这样就形成了一个可持续的经济循环模式。故选C项。【31题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“Butoneofthemostpromisingandsimplestsolutionsliesintheproblemitself:thiswastedfood—ifcomposted(堆肥)—couldslowclimatechangeandimprovesoilquality.(但是最有希望和最简单的解决方案之一在于问题本身：这些浪费的食物——如果进行堆肥——可以减缓气候变化并改善土壤质量)”和最后一段中“Whilemorecompostableitemsarestartingtoemergetoday,additionalcompostingwillfurtherdrivedemandandinnovation,andofferagame-changingsolutionfortheplanet.(虽然今天开始出现更多的可堆肥物品，但额外的堆肥将进一步推动需求和创新，并为地球提供改变游戏规则的解决方案)”可推知，文章介绍如果对浪费的食物进行堆肥，可以形成一个可持续的经济循环模式，并为解决其他废物问题铺平道路，解决环境问题，保护我们的地球。故“浪费的食物如何拯救地球”是最佳标题。故选B项。DThoseofyouwhohaveseentheamazingNationalGeographicdocumentaryFreeSolowillknowjusthowfascinatingitcanbetowatchaprofessionalclimberscalethesideofamountain.Anewdocumentary,Explorer:TheLastTepui,sharesalotwithFreeSolo,whichwonthe2019AcademyAwardforBestDocumentaryFeature.NotonlydoesitstarrockclimberAlexHonnold,italsoshowshimhangingoffthesideofamountaininprecariouspositionsthatwillmakeyourstomachdropinextremefear.Whilehisathleticachievementsareamazing,Honnoldisn’tthemostappealingcharacterinthefilm.ThathonorgoestoBruceMeans,whohasspenthisacademiccareerfindingnewspeciesthroughoutSouthAmericatoprovetotheworldthattheareaisabiodiversityhotspottobeprotectedatallcosts.InExplorer:TheLastTepui,the80-year-oldecologistdecidestoclimbthe300-plusmetrestothepeakoftheTepui,deepinGuyana’sAmazonrainforest.Means,Honnold,leaderMarkSynnottandaworld-classteamofclimbershavetohike56kilometresover10daysacrossincreasinglydangerousareastoreachthebaseoftheTepui.ThisisaverybigdealbecauseMeanshasproblemswithhisknees.OnceattheTepui,HonnoldandotherteammembersplantoclimbtothetopandthenpullMeansup,whichwillallowhimtoexplorethecliffwallfornovelanimalandplantspecies.Unsurprisingly,becauseoftheareatheymustcrosstoreachtheTepui,variousmajorbarrierssoongetinthewayoftheparty.ThedetaileddescriptionsofMeans’determinationtoovercomethesechallengesduetohisageandhealthjustaddrealsuspense(悬念)tothedocumentary.Theconstantlychangingviewpointsandpotentiallylife-threateningissuesensurethatExplorer:TheLastTepuiremainscompelling(扣人心弦的)totheveryend.Eventhoughitisjust54minuteslong,youwillstillfeeltiredout,aswellasinspired,bythetimeitisover.32.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“precarious”inparagraph2probablymean?A.Comfortable.
