∷The British Museum opened in 1759?
C
HRONOLOGICA
is a fascinating journey through
time, from the foundation of Rome to the creation of the
internet. Along the way are tales of kings and queens,
hot air balloons… and monkeys in space.
Travel through 100 of the most unbelievable years
in world history and learn why being a Roman Emperor
wasn’t always as good as it sounds, how the Hundred
Years’ War didn’t actually last for 100 years and why Spencer Perceval holds a rather
unfortunate record.

is an informative and entertaining tour into history, beautifully
illustrated and full of unbelievable facts. While C
HRONOLOGICA
tells the stories of famous
people in history such as Thomas Edison and Alexander the Great, this book also gives
an account of the lives of lesser-known individuals including the
explorer Mungo Park and sculptor Gutzon Borglum.
This complete but brief historical collection is certain to
entertain readers young and old, and guaranteed to present even
the biggest history lover with something new!

A. A biography. B. A travel guide.
C. A history book. D. A science fiction.
57. How does the writer recommend CHRONOLOGICA to readers?

Before birth, babies can tell the difference
between loud sounds and voices. They can even
distinguish their mother’s voice from that of a
female stranger. But when it comes to embryonic
learning (胎教), birds could rule the roost. As
recently reported in The Auk: Ornithological
Advances, some mother birds may teach their
young to sing even before they hatch (孵化)。
New-born chicks can then imitate their mom’s
call within a few days of entering the world.
Red-backed fairy wrens (鹪鹩), which live in northern
This educational method was first observed in 2012 by Sonia Kleindorfer, a biologist at Flinders
and eastern Australia, lay three or four eggs at a time.
University in South Australia, and her colleagues. Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found to
repeat one sound over and over again while hatching their eggs. When the eggs were hatched, the
baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothers—a sound that served as their regular “feed me!”
call.
To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds, the researchers sought the red-
backed fairy wren, another species of Australian songbird. First they collected sound dated from 67
nests in four sites in Queensland before and after hatching. Then they identified begging calls by
analyzing the order and number of notes. A computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by
mothers and chicks, ranking them by similarity.
It turns out that baby red-backed fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms. And the more
frequently mothers had called to their eggs, the more similar were the babies’ begging calls. In
addition, the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds that most closely
imitated their mom’s voice were rewarded with the most food.
This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological (神经系统的)
strengths of children to parents. An evolutionary inference can then be drawn. “As a parent, do you
invest in quality children, or do you invest in children that are in need?” Kleindorfer asks. “Our results
suggest that they might be going for quality.”
58. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means “ ”.
A. be the worst B. be the best
C. be just as bad D. be just as good
59. What are Kleindorfer’s findings based on?
A. Similarities between the calls moms and chicks.
B. The observation of fairy wrens across Australia.
C. The data collected from Queensland’s locals.
D. Controlled experiments on wrens and other birds.
60. Embryonic learning helps mother birds to identify the baby birds which .
A. can receive quality signals B. are in need of training
C. fit the environment better D. make the loudest call
C
A new commodity brings about a highly profitable, fast-growing industry, urging antitrust (反垄
断) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question
was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants (巨头) that deal in data, the oil of the
digital age. The most valuable firms are Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look
unstoppable.
Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime.
The giants’ success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick
delivery. Far from charging consumers high prices, many of these services are free (users pay, in
effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that
newcomers can make waves, too.
But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more
valuable, changing the nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from
users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new
services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies’ control
of data gives them enormous power. So they have a “God’s eye view” of activities in their own
markets and beyond.
This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up firms like
Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become
great again. A rethink is required—and as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand
out.
The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century.
When considering a merger (兼并) , for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when
to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms’ data assets (资产) when assessing
the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a
new-born threat. When this takes place, especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak
of, the regulators should raise red flags.
The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and
give more to those who supply them. Companies could be forced to consumers what information they
hold and how many money they make form it. Governments could order the sharing of certain kinds
of data, with users’ consent.
Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy. But if governments don’t wants a
data economy by a few giants, they must act soon.
61. Why is there a call to break up giants?
A. They have controlled the data market
B. They collect enormous private data
C. They no longer provide free services
D. They dismissed some new-born giants
62. What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?
A. Data giants’ technology is very expensive
B. Google’s idea is popular among data firms
C. Data can strengthen giants’ controlling position
D. Data can be turned into new services or products
63. By paying attention to firms’ data assets, antitrust regulators could .
A. kill a new threat B. avoid the size trap
C. favour bigger firms D. charge higher prices
64. What is the purpose of loosening the giants’ control of data?
A. Big companies could relieve data security pressure.
B. Governments could relieve their financial pressure.
C. Consumers could better protect their privacy.
D. Small companies could get more opportunities.
D
Old Problem, New Approaches
While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for some
decades after CO
2
emissions (排放) peak. So even if emissions were to begin decrease today, we
would still face the challenge of adapting to climate. Here I will stress some smarter and more creative
examples of climate adaptation.
When it comes to adaptation, it is important to understand that climate change is a process. We
are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard, but to a constantly shifting set of conditions.
This is why in part at least, the US National Climate Assessment says that: “There is no ‘one-size fit
all’ adaptation.” Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost.
Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries.
Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades. Mohammed Rezwan saw
opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that
serve as floating libraries, schools, and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other
communicating facilities. Rezwan is creating floating connectivity (连接) to replace flooded roads and
highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people how to make
floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.
Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in a
mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man. The loss of glaciers (冰川) there due
to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water will arrive
in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration come from seeing the waste of
water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it
froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly timed irrigation (灌溉) water.
Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has stored about 200,000m
3
of water.
Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves will not last forever. Warming will
overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will, perhaps, be able to find
other means of adapting.
Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In southern Spain the sudden increase of
greenhouses (which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and actually
cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses
have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all cities. By painting buildings white,
cities may slow down the warming process.
In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate
change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness
will restore the life-giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World Bank has included
the project on its list of “100 ideas to save the planet”.
More ordinary forms of adaptation are happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area of
land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been too wet for cropping. But during the
past decade declining rainfall has allows him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers in many
countries are also adapting like this—either by growing new produce, or by growing the same things
differently. This is common sense, but some suggestions for adapting are not. When the polluting
industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt,
it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.
Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing
ways. But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less
carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in the way, we may avoid the need to change in so many others.
65. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 implies .
A. adaptation is an ever-changing process
B. the cost of adaptation varies with time
C. global warming affects adaptation forms
D. adaptation to climate change is challenging
66. What is special with regard to Rezwan’s project?
A. The project receives government support.
B. Different organizations work with each other.
C. His organization makes the best of a bad situation.
D. The project connects flooded roads and highways.
67. What did the Ice Man do to reduce the effect of global warming?
A. Storing ice for future use. B. Protecting the glaciers from melting.
C. Changing the irrigation time. D. Postponing the melting of the glaciers.
68. What do we learn from the Peru example?
A. White paint is usually safe for buildings.
B. The global warming tread cannot be stopped.
C. This country is heating up too quickly.
D. Sunlight reflection may relieve global warming.
69. According to the author, polluting industries should .
A. adapt to carbon pollution B. plant highly profitable crops
C. leave carbon emission alone D. fight against carbon pollution
70. What’s the author’s preferred solution to global warming?
A. setting up a new standard. B. Reducing carbon emission.
C. Adapting to climate change. D. Monitoring polluting industries.
第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
请阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。
Population Change
Why is the world’s population growing? The answer is not what you might think. The reason for
the explosion is not that people have been reproducing like rabbits, but that people have stopped
dropping dead like flies. In 1900, people died at the average age of 30. By 2000 the average age was
65. But while increasing health was a typical feature of the 20th century, declining birth rate could be
a defining one of the 21st.
Statistics show that the average number of births per woman has fallen from 4.9 in the early
1960s to 2.5 nowadays. Furthermore, around 50% of the world’s population live in regions where the
figure is now below the replacement level (i.e. 2.1 births per woman) and almost all developed nations
are experiencing sub- replacement birth rate. You might think that developing nations would make up
the loss (especially since 80% of the world’s people now live in such nations), but you’d be wrong.
Declining birth rate is a major problem in many developing regions too, which might cause
catastrophic global shortages of work force within a few decades.
A great decline in young work force is likely to occur in China, for instance. What does it imply?
First, China needs to undergo rapid economic development before a population decline hits the
country. Second, if other factors such as technology remain constant, economic growth and material
expectations will fall well below recent standards and this could invite trouble.
Russia is another country with population problems that could break its economic promise. Since
1992 the number of people dying has been bigger than that of those being born by a massive 50%.
Indeed official figures suggest the country has shrunk by 5% since 1993 and people in Russia live a
shorter life now than those in 1961. Why is this occurring? Nobody is quite sure, but poor diet and
above all long-time alcoholism have much to do with it. If current trends don’t bend, Russia’s
population will be about the size of Yemen’s by the year 2050.
In the north of India, the population is booming due to high birth rates, but in the south, where
most economic development is taking place, birth rate is falling rapidly. In a further twist, birth rate is
highest in poorly educated rural areas and lowest in highly educated urban areas. In total, 25% of
India’s working-age population has no education. In 2030, a sixth of the country’s potential work
force could be totally uneducated.
One solution is obviously to import foreign workers via immigration. As for the USA, it is almost
unique among developed nations in having a population that is expected to grow by 20% from 2010-
2030. Moreover, the USA has a track record of successfully accepting immigrants. As a result it’s
likely to see a rise in the size of its working-age population and to witness strong economic growth
over the longer term.
Population Change
The birth rate in the 21st century may be much (71) _________
than it was in the 20th.
It would be difficult for developed countries to maintain the (72)
Decline of the birth rate
_________ of population.
The impact of dropping birth rate on developing countries may
not be (73) _________ but disastrous.
To guarantee its economic growth, China needs to deal with the
population issue properly, as its workers are getting (75)
_________.
The (76) __________ death of Russians may result in a shrinking
Population and (74)
_________ pressure
population, which would damage its economic future. It would
be better if it can change people’s way of (77) _________.
Leaving aside the birth rate issue, India’s economy may take off
when the country achieves (78) _________ of educational
opportunity.
The USA will increase, from 2010-2030, its population by 20%
American solution
through (79) _________. This will (80) _________ for the lack
of young work force.

W: Hello, Mr. White. Do you think it’s possible for us to talk sometime today?
M: I’d love to, Miss Wilson, but I’ve got a pretty tight schedule today. I’ve got to finish reading the
yearly financial report by 10. Then I have to drive to the airport to pick up an advertiser at 11. After
that, I’ll have a meeting with him over lunch.
W: Can I see you after lunch?
M: Well, let me see… after lunch, I have to attend a senior staff meeting, which may last about two
hours. Can you come at 3? We can talk for an hour before I meet my sales team at 4.
W: I’m afraid an hour is too short. What about tomorrow morning?
M: 9 to 11, then. I’ll wait for you at the office.
W: OK, see you then.

W: Hey, Bill. I hear they’re going to send you to Germany for the new project.
M: Boy, news travels fast around here! I only got the orders a couple of hours ago. Rachel doesn’t
even know…
W: Oh, no? So, what are you waiting for? When do you plan to tell her?
M: Well, she is at work at the moment. She doesn’t finish until 5. I’ll have to wait until tonight now, I
suppose.
W: Well, I was posted there before, back in 2008. It’s OK — a bit like England, really. At least the
weather is similar, and the people aren’t much different. The only thing I didn’t like is the food,
especially the sausages. What do you intend to do about the family? Are you going to take them with
you?
M: Well, I’d like to, but I don’t know much about the situation at the moment… you know, about
schools and all that. But I hope to move the family out there in a couple of months’ time. I don’t think
I want to spend a year and a half out there on my own...I mean, without Rachel and the kids. I mean, I
don’t see that much of them now as it is.
W: Yeah. Well, that’s the way it is normally in our company, I suppose.
M: Yeah. Well, we’ll see. Let me pay for the coffee.
W: No, no. I’ll pay.

W: Hello, everyone. Welcome to our program. I’m Jenny Jackson. The weather here in Juárez has
become unbearable. With no rains for over a year, the city is suffering from unusually hot weather.
Some light showers have been forecast since last month, but all of them have been effective in
surrounding areas. Summer has not even started yet, but temperatures have reached 40 degrees
centigrade in the past three days. And people have been warned not to go out of their homes — not if
you walk on foot, at least — between 11 in the morning and 7 in the evening. Little kids and the
elderly are the ones who have suffered the most from this extreme heat wave. They must drink water
all the time. To help our audience have a better understanding of this extreme weather, we have
invited Prof. Torres from University of Mexico to our studio this evening.

59.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。由第二段第三行对Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found…和第
三段第二行the red-backed fairy wren…进行记录，而非整个澳大利亚，排除B；由文章第三段
第二三行First they collected sound dated from 67 nests in four sites in Queensland…并未提到当地
人，信息不准确，故排除C；D项中并未提到 其他鸟类，排除。基于文章意思，所有发现都是
基于最后一段母鸡和雌鸡的相似性而进行的。所以选A。
60.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。文章倒数第二段最后一句提到“……单独的实验表明 模仿母鸟的声音最
接近的雌鸟会得到更多的食物。”和最后一段最后一句“作为父母，你是想要质量优良 的孩子
还是想要需要帮助的孩子，我们的结果表明它们想要质量优良的孩子”，由此推断母鸟通过胎教来确定最会模仿它们声音质量优良的雏鸟无需过多帮助就能更好的适应环境。所以答案选C。
【参考译文】 在出生之前，婴儿可以辨别声音和声音之间的差异，他们甚至可以从陌生女性
中分辨出自己妈妈的声音。但当涉及到胎教时，鸟类能首屈一指。《海雀：鸟类学研究进展》
近日报道， 一些鸟妈妈会教它们的孩子唱歌，甚至在它们孵化之前。比如新出生的小鸡就可以
在进入世界的几天内模 仿它们妈妈的话语。
这种教育方法是在2012年被南澳大利亚佛林德斯大学的生物学家索尼亚·克雷 恩多佛和她
的同事们首次发现的。雌性澳大利亚壮丽细尾鹩莺被发现在孵蛋时一遍又一遍地重复一个声音 。
当蛋孵化，小鸟发出类似他们的母亲的啁啾声，作为它们定期的“喂我！”叫声。
为了发现 这种特殊能力在鸟类中很普遍，研究人员找到了另一种澳大利亚鸣禽，红背细尾
鹩莺。首先，他们收集了 来自昆士兰州四个地点的67个巢穴在孵化前后的声音，然后他们通
过分析指令和大量笔记识别求食的声 音。计算机大量地分析比较母亲和小鸟的声音，并按相似
性排序。
结果是红背鹩莺幼崽的鸣叫 也出现像它们的妈妈的现象。母亲对蛋鸣叫的频率越高，幼崽
的乞食声就越相似。此外，研究小组还做了 一个额外的实验，实验结果表明，最能模仿母亲声
音的小鸟会得到最多的食物。
这一观察结果 显示，有效的胎教会让孩子对父母发出优势神经信号。由此可以得出一个进化推
论：“作为一个家长，你 会投资优质的孩子，还是投资那些需要帮助的孩子？”克雷恩多佛问，
“我们的研究结果表明，他们可能 会追求质量。”
61.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据关键词定位到第二段第一句，Such situations have led to calls for the
tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime…由such找到第一段第一句，urging
antitrust regulators to step in to check those…可知因为这些巨头控制了数据市场，人们才呼吁解
散那些巨头。故而选A。
62.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据关键词定位到第三段最后两句，Internet companies’ control of data
gives them enormous power. So they have a “God’s eye view” of activities in their own markets and
beyond.可知网络公司对于数据的控制给了他们 巨大的权利，它们甚至可以用上帝的眼光来看
待它们的市场活动，这进一步加强了那些巨头的地位。所以 选C。
63.【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据关键词定位到第五段前三句，The first is that antitrust authorities
need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger(兼并), for
example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They now need to take into
account the extent of firms’ data assets(资产) when assessing the impact of deals. 可知反 垄断组织以
前一直是根据公司的规模来决定是否介入，而现在需要考虑那些公司的数据库的范围，所以答
案选B。
64.【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据关键词定位到第六段可知， 大公司要披露给消费者它们掌握了多少
信息，政府也要根据消费者的满意度来决定。所以答案选D。
【参考译文】 一种新的商品会带来一个高利润、快速增长的行业，并敦促反垄断监管机构介
入检查那些控制商品流向的企业。一个世纪前，资源问题是石油。现在，同样的担忧被称为数
字化时代的 石油的交易数据的巨头提出。最有价值的公司有谷歌、亚马逊、脸谱网、微软，看
起来全都无法阻挡。
这种情况导致了对科技巨头垮台的诉求，但规模本身不是罪。巨头的成功得益于消费者，
几乎没 有人想离开搜索引擎或快速交货而生活。相对于收取消费者更高的价格，这些服务都是
免费的（在效果上 ，用户通过移交更多的数据付费）。并且新生巨头的出现表明新人也可以掀
起波澜。
但这也有 引起关注的原因。互联网使数据丰富多彩、更有价值，改变了数据和竞争的本质。
谷歌最初收集用户数据 是为了有更好的目标广告。但最近它发现数据可以转换成新的出售给其
他公司的服务：翻译和视觉识别。 互联网公司的数据控制给了他们巨大的权力，所以他们在国
内外市场有“上帝视角”的程序。
数据的这种性质使过去的反垄断措施少有用处。把像谷歌这样的公司分成五个小公司，他
们也不会停止自 我改造：随着时间的推移，他们中的一个会再次变得强大起来。反思是必要的，
随着一种新的方法开始表 面化，两种观点脱颖而出。
首先，反垄断当局需要从工业时代适应到二十一世纪。例如，当考虑到公司 兼并时，他们
传统上会根据其规模来决定何时介入。现在，在评估交易的影响时，他们需要考虑到公司数 据
资产的程度。购买价格也可能是公司购买新生威胁的信号。当这发生时，特别是当一个新生的
公司没有任何收入可言时，监管者应提高警惕。
第二个原则是放松在线服务提供者对数据的控制，并向 提供它们的人给予更多的控制。公
司可能被迫向消费者提供他们持有的信息和他们所赚的钱。政府可以在 用户同意的情况下，命
令共享某些类型的数据。
重新启动反垄断信息时代是不容易的。但如果 政府不希望由几个巨头控制经济数据，他们必须
尽快采取行动。
65.【答案】A
【解析】推理判断题。提问第二段划线句暗示了什么。One size fits for all意 为通用的，以不变
应万变的。整句话再说没有通用的适用方法。第二段总述“气候变化是一个过程，适应 性方法
也在不断地调整。”划线句后一句由nevertheless开头，后面这句话一定有关键信息 ，此句说
明我们可以选择其他风险低和耗费低的方法。那么划线句就是说划线句adaptation的 方法很多。
故而选A。
66.【答案】C
【解析】细节理解题。根据关键词定位到第三段第二行，Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity
where others saw only disaster. 以及他之后采取的用船充当基础设施的举措可看出，充分利用了
当前条件。所以选C。
67.【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据关键词定位到第四段第二行，The loss of glaciers(冰川) there due to
global warming以及第四行Norphel’s inspiration come from seeing the waste of water over winter,
when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was
stored until the spring. 这句话讲到他的方式是将冰川融化浪费的水储存起来，等到需要的时候
再使用。所以答案选A。
68.【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句， By painting buildings white, cities may slow down
the warming process.以及第六段的painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that ...可知通
过将墙涂成白色，利用光的 反射原理可以缓解全球气候变暖并且Peru的措施验证了这一点。
所以答案选D。
69.【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第七句，When the polluting industries argue that we’ve
lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to
make the case for business as usual.可知目前你一些污染企 业说它们已经失去了对谈污染的控制，
但作者认为这个说辞是胡说，一派胡言。故可直接选择与失去控制 相反的D项，即与污染积
极斗争。故而答案选D。
70.【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数第二行中，the most sensible form of adaptation is
surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution.可知作者认为最合理的应对 全球变
暖的方法还是改变我们的能源系统来减少二氧化碳的排放，从根源上缓解气后变暖。故而选择B项。
【参考译文】 老问题，新方法
虽然清洁能源在我们的日常生活中使用地 越来越多，但全球变暖在二氧化碳排放高峰后仍
将持续数十年。所以即使在温室气体的排放量开始减少的 今天，我们仍然面临着适应气候的挑
战。这里我要强调一些更聪明、更富有创造性的适应气候变化的例子 。
说到适应，了解气候变化的过程就很重要了。因此我们谈论的不是适应新的标准，而是一
套 不断变化的条件。这就是为什么至少在某种程度上，美国国家气候评估说：“没有一个尺寸
适合所有事物 。”然而，有一些措施提供了很多，并且几乎没有风险或成本。
在世界各地，人们正在以惊人的方式进 行适应，特别是在一些贫困国家。在孟加拉，洪水
在最近几十年里变得更具破坏性。穆罕默德·李强看到 了机会，而其他人只看到了灾难。他的
非营利组织经营着100艘河舟，它们可以用作流动的图书馆、学 校和卫生诊所，并配有太阳能
电池板和其他通讯设施。李强正在创建浮动连接代替淹没的道路和高速公路 ，但他依然在基层
工作：他的工作人员向人们展示如何在雨季里建造漂浮的花园和鱼塘以防止饥饿。 < br>在亚洲的其他地方，令人惊讶的行为正在发生。查翁·诺菲尔生活在印度山区，在那里他
被称为冰 人。由于全球变暖，冰川的损失是农业的一个巨大的威胁。没有冰川，水到河流中的
时候，它会破坏农作 物。诺菲尔的灵感来自于在冬天看到当不需要时水的浪费。他引导的浪费
水流入浅的盆地，让它冻结，并 储存到春天。他大片的冰供应了定期的灌溉水。有了九个这样
的冰储地，诺菲尔计算，他已经储存了约2 0万立方米的水。气候变化是一个持续的过程，所
以诺菲尔的冰储量也不是永久的，气候变暖会超过他的 冰。但他提供冰的几年期间，农民也许
能找到其他适应的方式。
增加地球的反射可以冷却地球 。在西班牙南部，温室的突然增加（将光线反射回太空）改
变了当地的气候变暖趋势，并真正使该地区降 温。当西班牙整体迅速升温时，温室附近的温度
却会下降。这个例子应该作为各个城市的一个灵感，通过 将建筑物涂成白色，城市可能将减缓
气候变暖的过程。
在秘鲁，已经沦为气候变化受害者的当 地农民在山的冰川附近已经开始把整个山峰画成白
色的，希望增加的反射将恢复给人生命的冰。结果虽远 未明朗，但世界银行已将其列入“100
个拯救地球的想法”项目。
更一般形式的适应发生无 处不在。我的一个朋友在西维多利亚拥有一片土地。经历了五代
人后，土地对于庄稼来说太潮湿。但在过 去降雨量下降的十年期间，使他可以种植高利润的作
物。许多国家的农民也通过种植新农产品或通过不同 的方式种植同样的东西来适应这种情况。
这是常识，但某些为了适应的建议却不这样。污染行业争辩说， 我们已经输掉控制碳污染的斗
争，别无选择，只能适应，这是一个使企业照常营业的荒谬的设计。 人类以普通又惊人的方式不断适应变化的气候。但适应最明智的形式无疑是使我们能源系
统排放更少 的碳污染。毕竟，如果我们在适应的路上，我们就可以避免改变很多的需求。
五、任务型阅读
71.【答案】lower
【解析】概括题。提问21 century定位到第一段最后一句But while increasing health was a
typical feature of the 20th century, declining birth rate could be a defining one of the 21st.表明2 1世
纪出生率比20世纪低很多。用low修饰rate的低，much后加比较级。故而用lower 。
72.【答案】sizescale
【解析】概括题。发达国家很难保持人口的规模。所以填sizescale。
73.【答案】immediate
【解析】概括题。根据第二段“which might cause catastrophic global shortages of work force
within a few decades”中的“within a few decades”可 知，出生率的下降对发展中国家和全球的
消极影响还没有发生，由此联想到“影响不是立即产生的”。
74.【答案】economy
【解析】原词。全文按照各个国家的人口与和经济压力展开。所以填economy。
75.【答案】oldolder
【解析】概括题。本体锁定在第三段，描述的中国的情况。 缺词句中的its指代中国的。根据
“A great decline in young work force is likely to occur in China…”得知中国的年轻工人变得更老
了。故而填oldolder。
76.【答案】earlier
【解析】概括题。根据关键词定位到Indeed official figures suggest the country has shrunk by 5%
since 1993 and people in Russia live a shorter life now than those in 1961.可知俄国人死亡人数很多，因为不好的饮食习惯所以去世较早，导致了人口缩水。所以填earlier。
77.【答案】livinglife
【解析】概括题。本体延续上一题的定位位置找到Why is this occurring? Nobody is quite sure,
but poor diet an above all long-time alcoholism have much to do with it.得 知俄罗斯人的饮食习惯不
良且酗酒导致寿命不长。所以俄罗斯经济想要好起来，必须改变人们的生活方式 way of living。
所以填living。
78.【答案】equality
【解析】概括题。本体描述了印度的人口情况以及这种情况形成的原因。根据原文in the south,
where most economic development is taking place, birth rate is falling rapidly. In a further twist, birth
rate is highest in poorly educated rural areas an lowest in highly educated urban areas.得知印度南北
教育程度不同导致人口情况不同，所以印度经济想要腾飞，需要 南北公平的教育机会或者大多
数人都能获得机会。所以填equality。
79.【答案】immigration
【解析】原词。根据关键词US定位到原文最后一段One solution is obviously to import foreign
workers via immigration.可知美国人口会因为移民而增长。所以填immigration。
80.【答案】compensate
【解析】概括题。由文章最后一段As a result it’s likely to see a rise in the size of its working-age
population and to witness strong economic growth over the longer term. 可知，美国 的移民政策将会
使劳动力有所增加。接纳移民可以弥补劳动力的短缺。可知应该填入compensat e。
【参考译文】 人口变动
为什么世界人口在增长？答案也许不是你所想的那样 。人口爆炸的原因并不是人们像兔子
一样繁殖，而是人们停止了像苍蝇一样死去。1900年，人们平均 30岁去世，而2000年平均年
龄为65岁。如果说二十世纪的一个典型特征是健康程度的增加，那么 出生率下降将是21世纪
的显著特征。
统计数据表明，每个妇女的平均生育数已从20世纪6 0年代初期的4.9下降到如今的2.5。
此外，约50%的世界人口居住在目前低于更替水平的地区（ 即每名妇女生育2.1个），几乎所
有发达国家都经历了低出生率。你可能会认为，发展中国家将弥补损 失（尤其因为世界上80%
的人现在生活在这样的国家）。那你就错了，出生率的下降在许多发展中地区 也是一个主要问
题，这可能会导致在未来几十年的灾难性全球劳动力短缺。
举个例子，年轻的 劳动力大大下降是有可能发生在中国的。这意味着什么？首先，中国需
要在人口下降来临前经历经济的快 速发展。第二，如果有其他因素，如技术保持不变，那么经

俄罗斯具有可以打破它经济目标的人口问题。自1992年以来，死亡人数一直大于 出生人
数的百分之50多。事实上，官方数据显示，该国自1993以来人口已经萎缩了5%，俄罗斯人
的寿命也比1961年的短。为什么会出现这种情况呢？没人敢肯定，但不良的饮食和长期的酗
酒都与这有关。如果照着目前的趋势，到2050年俄罗斯的人口大约相当于也门的规模。
在印度北部 ，由于出生率高，人口正在迅速增长，但在南方大多数经济正在发展的地方，
出生率正在迅速下降。更让 人想不到的是，出生率最高的是受教育程度低的农村地区，而在高
学历城市地区出生率最低。总的来说， 印度25%的劳动人口没有受过教育。到2030年，全国
有六分之一的潜在劳动力完全没接受教育。
解决办法之一显然是通过移民输入外国工人。至于美国，它几乎是唯一的能在2010年至
20 30年间，人口增长20%的发达国家。此外，美国已经成功地接受移民登记。因此，它很可
能会见证劳 动人口的增长，并目睹长期的强劲的经济增长。
六、书面表达
81.【参考范文】Possible version one:
The box- office income of Chinese movies witnessed a constant increase from about 17 billion yuan
in 2012 to over 40 billion in 2015. However, that increase slowed down in 2016.
The reasons behind this are various. The fast economic development before 2016 was probably the
most powerful engine driving the constant growth in the box-office income. The application of new
technologies and the wide appeal of movie stars could also account for the increase. However, China
saw a decline in its economic growth rate last year. And the internet increased options for movie
lovers. Consequently, some viewers began to turn away from cinemas, leading to a slower growth.
China‘s economy is expected to grow at a medium speed in the coming years, so an increase is
possible in the investment in the movie industry and the number of quality movies. Therefore, its box-
office income will probably enjoy a slight increase. (150 words)
Possible version two:
As is indicated in the graph, the box-office income of Chinese films increased constantly from 2012
to 2015, but its growth, for one reason or another, slowed down in 2016.
The increase in the box-office income can be attributed to a number of factors. The quality of life
has improved and watching films is regarded as a good means of entertainment. Besides, filming
technology has advanced and more quality films are on offer. Moreover, the Internet plays an
important part. On the internet people can seek information about their favourite stars and buy tickets
at a discount as well, which is both time-saving and economical.
However, the film market may witness a slowdown in the near future. Cinemas have gradually
given way to the rise of the internet and cellphones, and the ticket price is on the increase. Therefore,
the film industry should make greater efforts to attract more viewers. (150 words)
