第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
A team of international scientists is due to set off for the world’s biggest iceberg in a mission aiming to answer fundamental questions about the impact of climate change in the polar regions. The scientists, led by he British Antarctic Survey( BAS), are trying to reach a newly revealed ecosystem that had been hidden for 120,000 years below the Larsen C ice shelf.
Last year, part of the Larsen C ice shelf calved (崩解) away, forming a huge iceberg-A68--which is four times bigger than London, and revealing life beneath for the first time. Now scientists say it is a race against time to explore these new ecosystems before they are transformed to the light. Marine biologist Dr Katrin Linse from the BAS is leading the mission.
“The calving of A68 provides us with a unique opportunity to study marine life as it responds to a huge environment change,” she said. “It is important that we get there quickly before the undersea environment changes as sunlight enters the water.”
Professor David Vaughan, science director at the BAs, said, “We need to be bold (大胆的) on this one. Larsen C is a long way south and there’s lots of sea ice in the area, but this is important science, so we will try our best to get the team where they need to be. He said climate change had already affected the sea around Antarctica and is warming some coastal waters. “Future warming may make some habitats warm. Where these habitats support unique species that are adapted to love the cold and not the warm, those species are going to either move or die.”
There is growing concern about the possible impact of climate change in the Antarctic. Earlier this month, a report revealed that melting ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are speeding up the already fast pace of the sea level rise. The research, published by the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine, said, “At the current rate, the world’s ocean will be, on average, at least 60cm higher by the end of the century.” However, it found that the process is accelerating, and more than three quarters of the acceleration since 1993 is due to melting ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, the study shows.
1、Why are the scientists eager to go to the iceberg?
A．To study how the iceberg was formed.
B．To study a newly discovered ecosystem.
C．To explore a new way to prevent climate change.
D．To explore the geography of the Larsen C ice shelf.
2、What do the underlined words “this one” in the fourth paragraph refer to?
A．The Larsen C ice shelf.
B．Climate change in Antarctica.
C．The A68 iceberg with the ecosystem beneath it.
D．The condition of animal species in Antarctica.
3、What can we learn about the A68 iceberg from the text?
A．It is as big as London.
B．It is part of an ice shelf in the Arctic.
C．It will disappear in a very short time.
D．It has uncovered an unknown ecosystem in Antarctica.
4、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．There is no need to worry about climate change in Antarctica.
B．The ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are melting at a steady rate.
C．Many creatures living in deep water will die out due to climate change.
D．By 2100, the sea level will have risen to a much higher level than now.

B
Electric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be dirtier than their gasoline-powered cousins.
People in California love to talk about “zero-emissions vehicles”, but people inCalifornia seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fireto make it. Aside from the new folks who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get ourelectricity from generators (发电机). Generators are fueled by something—usually coal, oil,but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms andgeothermal (地热)plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.
In other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-burning cars. It’s justbecause the coal is burned somewhere else, it looks clean. It is not. It’s as if the CaliforniaGreens are covering their eyes—“ If I can’t see it, it’s not happening.” Gasoline is anincredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But whenyou take that gas (or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice partof that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat—at the generator, through the transmissionlines, etc.
A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallonof gas won’t get you as far — so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-poweredones. If our electricity came mostly from nukes or geothermal, or hydro or wind or solar, thenan electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, wedon’t use much of those energy sources.
In addition, electric cars’ batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventuallyend up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread acrossall the roads. When it’s a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. Nature is verygood at cleaning up when things are too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all thegarbage is in one spot.
1、What is the main idea of the text?
A．Electric cars are far from being clean.
B．Electric cars are better than gasoline-powered ones.
C．People cast doubts on electric cars’ batteries.
D．Gasoline is an efficient way to power a vehicle.
2、The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car run____.
A．no less than 25 miles B．as far as 50 miles
C．less than 25 miles D．as far as 25 miles
3、According to the text, electric cars____.
A．are more environmentally friendly
B．burn more fuel than gas-powered ones
C．are very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated
D．are poisonous for a long time and will eventually end up in a landfill
4、It can be inferred from the text that____.
A．being green is good and should be encouraged in communication
B．electric cars are the dominant vehicles compared with their gas-poweredcousins
C．zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D．electric cars are not clean because we get electricity mainly by burning something

The biggest challenge I have overcome is stepping out of my comfort zone. In the year of 2013 which I was 15, I joined an exchange student program. I sent to Germany alone and lived with the host family.
At first it was a huge failure for me. Thanks for my host mom, she helped me a lot. She told me some tips to make friends, such as joining a sports club and invited my classmates to watch a movie. Surprising, all of the tips she gave me work out! She also suggested that I can introduce my culture to my classmates. To my astonish, they were both interested in Chinese culture.
Gradually, my discomfort zone became a part of my comfort zone.
