Emissions rose 5.9 percent in 2010, according to an analysis released on Sunday by the Global Carbon Project.Scientists said the increase was almost certainly the largest absolute jump in any year since the Industrial Revolution. The increase solidified a trend of eve rrising emissions that will make it difficult, if not impossible, to stop severe climate change in coming decades.The burning of coal represented more than half of the growth in emissions, the analysis found. In the United States, emissions dropped by a remarkable 7 percent in the year of 2009, but rose by over 4 percent in 2010, the new analysis shows.“Each year, emissions go up, and there's another year of negotiations, another year of indecision,” said Glen P. Peters, a rese archer at the Center for International Climate and Environmental Research. “There's no evidence that this path we've been following in the last 10 years is going to change.”Scientists say the rapid growth of emissions is warming the Earth and putting human welfare at longterm risk. But their increasingly urgent pleas that society find a way to limit emissions have met sharp political resistance in many countries because doing so would involve higher energy costs.The new figures show a continuation of a trend in which developing countries have surpassed(超过) the wealthy countries in their overall greenhouse emissions. In 2010, the burning of fossil fuels and the production of cement(水泥) sent more than nine billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, the new analysis found, with 57 percent of that coming from developing countries.On the surface, the figures of recent years suggest that wealthy countries have made headway in stabilizing their emissions. But Dr. Peters pointed out that, in a sense, the rich countries have simply exported some of them.The fast rise in developing countries has been caused to a large extent by the growth of energyintensive manufacturing industries that make goods that rich countries import. “All that has changed is the location in which the emissions arebeing produced,” Dr. Peters said.Many countries, as part of their response to the economic crisis, invested billions in programs designed to make their energy systems greener. While it is possible, the new numbers suggest they have had little effect so far.31.Many governments in the world resist limiting emissions because ________.A.it is not the best way to solve such problemsB.they don't realize the risks of carbon emissionsC.it would probably harm human welfare in the long runD.they are unwilling to accept higher energy costs32.According to Glen P. Peters, we can learn that ________.A.the rapid growth of emissions contributes to potential risks for humans B.rich countries actually take more responsibility for the growth of emissions C.human beings will follow the same path of negotiations in the next 10 years D.some countries negotiate together yearly whether to reduce the amounts of emissions33.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A.Emissions in the United States dropped by about 7 percent in 2010.B.Developing countries will produce less emissions with economic development.C.There is a long way to go for many countries to limit the fast growth of emissions.D.Over 50 percent of the growth in emissions resulted from the burning of fossil fuels.34.The text mainly talks about ________.A.an analysis released by the Global Carbon ProjectB.the record jump in carbon dioxide emissionsC.the possible climate change in future decadesD.the main harm of greenhouse gasesⅣ.完成句子35.Many new couples conveyed their strong desire __________________________________ losing their parents in the earthquake. (adopt) 许多新夫妇都表达了他们强烈的愿望,收养在地震中失去双亲的孩子。
Unit 1 ArtⅠ.阅读理解ABest of Br itish: Service StationsBrockholes Nature Reserve ServicesM6,PRESTON“Our service station is different from any other service station you're going to stop at on any of the motorways in the UK,” says manager Alan Right.He's not lying.Brockholes is distinctive in that the whole facility floats on a 4,000foot pontoon (浮码头) in the middle of a lake.What's more,there's a bakery on site—so you can reward yourself with the “cake of the week” after a walk.Gloucester ServicesM4,BROOK THORPEOrdinarily,the most you can expect of servicestation food is a fastfood burger,or sugarfilled packaged goods.Not so at Gloucester Services.Located in a county known for its agriculture,this service station puts local produce at the fore(在前面).The farm shop offers regional cheeses and the café serves up some of the best homemade cake around.Cairn Lodge ServicesM74,DOUGLASThis was recently named the cheapest service station in the country,and that's not even the best thing about it; next to the station is an authentic ancient fortress (城堡).Douglas Castle is small and largely in ruins,but wandering around it makes for an enjoyable way to stretch your legs.The service station was privately owned until 2014,when it was acquired by Westmorland.The company has made a point of ensuring the food is to its trademark firstrate standard.Yorkshire Sculpture Park Service StationM1,YORKSHIREThis station could beat some of the nation's best galleries,and—since you'realready driving somewhere—you don't even have to go out of your way to see it.The 500 acres of carefully managed parkland are home to openair displays from some of the world's finest artists.Walk along the trails and you'll come across breathtaking sculptures,and splendid views.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇应用文。

D.Sure.3.Why didn't the author want to look in the mirror?A.She thought she wasn't good enough.B.She felt upset when others looked at her.C.It made her look less pretty.D.It made her recall bad memories.4.We can learn from the passage that the author ________.A.has left the old place with her familyB.is still suffering from the bad memoriesC.is stepping out from the shadow of her lifeD.feels so shameful as to refuse to see a doctorBMillions of New Yorkers and visitors ride the city's subways and other trains each day.The public transportation system offers more than just a trip,however.It also has one of the most extensive public art collections in the world, with many of them under city streets.Some people call it New York's“underground art museum”.It includes more than 250 works of art.They are meant to brighten everyone's ride around the city.There is a huge painting of the night sky on the ceiling of Grand Central Terminal.New Yorkers have been looking up at that artwork for 111 years.In the nearby Grand Central Market, you can find a large, crystal light fixture,which was completed by sculptor Donald Lipski in 1988.Other artists include new ones and the longfamous ones such as Roy Lichtenstein and Sol Lewitt.Sandra Bloodworth has directed the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's arts program since it began in 1985.But actually, it really began much earlier,and some of it even dates back to the time when the subway first opened in 1904.For the past 30 years, artists have been asked to make works that relate to city life or to the neighborhood around a train station.There are coastal scenes at stations near the Atlantic Ocean.Native plants and flowers can be found in a garden scene in Brooklyn.Alejandra Acosta, a visitor from Colombia, said,“I think it's nice to see these kinds of things when you're walking in spaces like the subway stations that seem a little bit dull.They don't have a lot of decorations.”Those art works in New York's“underground art museum”bring life into the dark passages.5.The art works are decorated in subway stations to ________.A.display those art worksB.introduce famous artistsC.make the subway trips enjoyableD.attract tourists to visit the subway6.When were art works probably first used to decorate the subway stations?A.In 1985.

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 1 ArtⅠ.阅读理解A[2020·高三六校第一次联考]My family and I never talked about school as the ticket to a future. I was in the classroom, but I wasn't there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr. Creech, who knew I couldn't read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldn't happen again. Later that day, Mr. Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Then when I was 41 years old, one day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr. Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you?” he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me,” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy he'd once encouraged.“I'm so glad I had a chance to see you,” I said. “And Mr. Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn't all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well,” I added.The experts say what once worried me has a name: dyslexia(诵读困难). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.1.Why did the author want to hide?A.Because he felt sorry for himself.B.Because he hated being laughed at.C.Because he couldn't read at all.D.Because he didn't have a ticket.2.Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?A.Considerate and dutiful.B.Demanding and enthusiastic.C.Emotional and dedicated.D.Friendly and ambitious.3.Why couldn't the author read before meeting Mr. Creech?A.Because his reading age was not long enough.B.Because his parents didn't teach him how to read.C.Because he was afraid of reading before the class.D.Because he didn't have inner driving force to learn to read.4.What can we infer from the passage?A.Mr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.B.The author had become a published author and an active speaker.C.Dyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.D.The author was grateful to Mr. Creech.B[2020·贵州适应性测试]Almost all calligraphy (书法) lovers agree that writing characters with a brush and ink on straw paper offers a way to communicate with not only history and culture, but also oneself. But now Chinese character handwriting is under threat from computers and mobile phones.A college graduate looking for a job was reportedly turned down by a company because he wrote 24 characters incorrectly in a 400character handwritten resume. A survey by HorizonKey, covering people from 12 major cities in China, found that nearly one third of those interviewed often experience “character amnesia (遗忘)”, with 94 percent saying this is a problem for them.The main reason is that most Chinese rely too much on the pinyinbased Chinese language input method, which is replacing the tradition of writing characters stroke (笔画) by stroke. The software will conveniently choose the right characters according to the context or word frequency, as there are dozens of characters with the same pronunciation in Chinese.Education is another problem. In college, most homework and papers are printed out, instead of handwritten. And few teachers use chalk and blackboards, with Microsoft's PowerPoint the mostoften used software to teach knowledge to students.The number of electronic devices in the classroom is thought to be another reason why students are easily satisfied with just a poor knowledge of the Chinese language and characters. It is quicker to look up a character in an electronic dictionary, but traditional printeddictionaries offer more detailed information on the usage and meaning of the characters. Students pay more attention to remembering a character's pronunciation, but not the other knowledge related to it, which edictionaries rarely provide.Another worry is the “pollution” of Chinese characters by Internet language. Young people regard using Internet language as cool and fashionable. After they learn to use these expressions, they automatically include them in their writing.5.With the example of a college graduate, the author shows ________.A.that practicing can improve writingB.why certain people are poor writersC.that there are differences in students' writingD.why Chinese character handwriting is in great danger6.By saying “... those interviewed often experience ‘character amnesia (遗忘)’”, the writer means those interviewed ________.A.are not good at handwritingB.can't write characters accuratelyC.show no interest in handwritingD.find jobs much more difficultly7.What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 5?A.Dependence on electronic devices.B.Advantages of electronic dictionaries.C.Mastery of knowledge of the characters.D.Disadvantages of published dictionaries.8.What's the writer's attitude towards the Internet language?A.Favorable. B.Uncaring.C.Disapproving. D.Friendly.Ⅱ.完形填空[2020·百所重点中学模拟]I used to watch Gogglebox when Caroline narrated (解说) it, partly because we were great friends, but also because I loved the programme.

with anger,and scream and yell.But other people keep their anger inside.They can not or will not express it.This is called repressing anger.For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was

As a result, Taylor suffers from cerebral palsy (CP). It is a condition that affects the brain. Kids who are born with CP have trouble controlling the muscles in their body. Taylor is 8 years old now. She uses a powerwheelchair to get around. Her twin sister Sydney participates in sports, but Taylor has a different interest: art.Taylor submitted(提交) a watercolor painting of a sunset in Chesapeake Bay, Virginia, to an art contest. Of the more than 5,500 students who took part in the contest, only 51 were selected. Taylor was one of them. Her winning painting is now being displayed in Union Station, in Washington,DC. After leaving Union Station, the exhibit will tour the country.The contest was sponsored by VSA, the international organization on arts and disability. The nonprofit group wasstarted to give people with disabilities an opportunity to participate in the arts. Submissions for the contest came from students with and without disabilities. The exhibition is part ofVSA's International Arts Festival and was also sponsored by CVS Caremark's All Kids Can program.Art Changed Her LifeAmanda LaMunyon represented Oklahoma in the exhibition. She just finished her freshman year of high school. When Amanda was in elementary school, she had problems focusing and following rules. She has Asperger Syndrome, which is a form of autism.“People started looking at her differently,”her mother, Sherry LaMunyon, said.“They stopped lookin g at her as a girl who was struggling and started looking at her as an artist. It's changed her whole life.”The president of VSA, Soula Antoniou, said that the point of the exhibition is to focus on students' abilities, rather than their disabilities.“Wha t we're trying to do is to make sure each student finds something they're good at,”she said.That's exactly what Taylor's done. While she has somedifficulty with fine motor skills, she's found that she's talented with wide brush strokes(画) in painting.Inspiring OthersBefore finding painting, Amanda said she had trouble fitting in.“I didn't have anything that I felt was my talent,”she said. Now she's more focused on school and is interested in studying fashion design and theater.Amanda hopes the exhibition will show others that even if they have disabilities, they have abilities they don't even know yet.

famous smog paintings.Ricci is not a common artist,because he used smog as the main medium of his artworks.Unlike other painters seeking fast recognition of their talent,he doesn’t really care about “being this big artist”.Instead he is more concerned about bringing attention to how much smog there really is in his home town and how it’s destroying both its monuments and people.Although he did take a couple of art classes a few years back,he is mainly selftaught,doesn’t work in a studio,donates most of his work,and refuses to play by the rules of the Florentine Art Gallery,which he considers corrupt.Alessandro Ricci believes selling his smog paintings will not only compromise his principles,but also contradict the very thing he’s trying to do—raise awareness about smog pollution in this city.Alessandro lives with his parents nearby Florence,but almost every day he visits the streets of the city,and collects smog for his paintings.He gets it from several meters above ground,from clean surfaces like marble,plastic and stone,using damp pieces of cotton.Then he applies the smog directly onto a cloth and creates street scenes and reproductions of the very buildings from which he got the dangerous material.Finally,he seals his paintings with a natural resin (树脂).His actions helped win a small victory for the people of Florence,as in October 25,2012 the Duomo area of the city was made pedestrianonly.But there is still a long way to go,the artist believes,and only cleaning the thick layer of smog that has accumulated throughout Florence would take several years.Still,he continues to paint his unique smog artworks and let the people know how polluted the environment they live in really is.1.What does the text mainly tell us?A.Florentine artist fights pollution by painting with smog.B.Ricci invents a unique way to paint buildings in Florence.C.People in Florence gather smog to create street scenes.D.Florence takes measures to improve the polluted city.2.In what way is Ricci quite different from other artists?A.He lacks talent in art work.B.He cares little about fame.C.He hates all the art Galleries.D.He likes to do things at will.3.Ricci paints his unique smog artworks aiming to________.A.fight government corruptionB.advertise the monumentsC.create more street scenesD.raise awareness about pollution4.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The place where Ricci lives.B.The problem that Florence faces.C.The way Riccis paints with smog.D.The materials for his painting.5.We can learn from the last paragraph that________.A.Duomo area of Florence has become more crowded with trafficB.Ricci’s action has brought no change to the people of FlorenceC.Ricci will con tinue to raise Florentine people’s awareness about pollution D.Smog pollution in Florence will be completely settled in several years课时作业(二十六)Ⅰ.单项填空1.解析:考查情景交际。
