BMathilda,15, is Turkana, a native people that has survived by raising cattle in a semiarid (半干旱) region. Mathildas school, like most schools in the area, doesnt have access to clean water and sanitation facilities for its students. So instead of spending their whole school day learning, Mathilda and her classmates start their day by spending two hours to the closest river fetching water -water that is anyway most likely not safe to drink. They do the same thing again in the afternoon, so they often lose around half of their school day fetching water.Mathilda has to do the same thing outside of school hours to get the water her family needs at home, leaving her little time for studying. Because of rising temperatures, water has become harder and harder to find here, and people have to spend more and more time trying to find it.This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize peoples rights to water, education and security. Unfortunately, most higher-income countries remained silent on the issue.This shows that communities already facing marginalization(边缘化),such as women and children, mostly suffer from climate change. This is especially the case for those in countries with limited resources and fragile ecosystems.Meanwhile, women consist of the majority of the world s poor，and so are more dependent for their livelihood on natural resources that are threatened by climate change. And around the world, women and girls are the most likely to be responsible for fetching water for their families.This exposes them to danger and leaves them with less time to attend school, earn money, or simply to rest. But the fact is that the effects of climate change will be felt globally.Despite the difficulties she is facing, trying to get an education, Mathilda says she hopes to serve her community in a leadership role when she grows up.“All of the worlds leaders need to work together to solve this problem that we are all facing,” she said.24. Mathilda has to spend _fetching water every school day.A. two hoursB. four hours C. more than four hours D. almost a whole day25. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell us_.A. the cause and effect of lack of water B. one serious consequence of climate changeC. the difficulties in fetching water in the semiarid regionD. the hardship of life for the people in the semiarid region26. We can conclude from the passage that_.A. climate change is everyones businessB. water is becoming rare because of rising temperaturesC. fetching water takes up Mathildas half of studying timeD. females are more responsible for fetching water for their families27. The passage is mainly about the problem caused by_.A. rising temperatures B. fetching water C. climate change D. water shortage参考答案：CBAC试题解析：本文以非洲国家儿童取水困难为例，引出了关乎全球的气候变化的问题。24根据文章第一段最后两句可知Mathilda每天花在取水的时间超过两个小时。故C项正确。25第三段的第一句话This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize peoples rights to water, education and security可知这句话是对前面两段的归纳，说明前面两段主要告诉我们气候变化所带来的严重后果。故B正确。26根据文章最后一段“All of the worlds leaders need to work together to solve this problem that we are all facing,” she said以及上文内容可知本文重点讲的是“气候变化关乎全人类”这一主题。B答案的rare不准确；D答案原文是women and girls are the most likely。气候变化是所有人都要面对的事情，故A正确。27从第三段This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize peoples rights to water, education and securityUnfortunately, most higher-income countries remained silent on the issue可以知道文章的中心是“气候变化”带来的问题。故C正确。22. 高考资源网 Tiger Mom, ks5u Youve been criticized(批评) a lot since you published your memoir(回忆录), Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. One problem is that some people dont get your humor. They think youre serious about all things, and they think Lulu and I are oppressed(压制) by our ill mother. That is not true. But for real, its not their fault. No outsider can know what our family is really like. They dont hear us laughing over each others jokes. They dont see us eating our hamburgers with fried rice. They dont know how much fun we have when the six of us dogs included squeeze into one bed and argue about what movies to download from Netflix. I admit: Having you as a mother was no tea party. There were some play dates I wish Id gone to and some piano camps I wish Id skipped. But now that Im 18 and about to leave the tiger den(穴), Im glad you and Daddy raised me the way you did. A lot of people have accused you of producing robot kids who cant think for themselves. Well, thats funny. I think your strict parenting forced me to be more independent. Early on, I decided to be an easy child to raise. Maybe I got it from Daddy he taught me not to care what people think and to make my own choices but I also decided to be who I want to be. Everybodys talking about the birthday cards we once made for you, which you rejected because they werent good enough. Funny how some people are convinced that Lulu and I are scarred for life. Maybe if I had poured my heart into it, I would have been upset. But lets face it: It took me 30 second; I didnt even sharpen the pencil. Thats why, when you rejected it, I didnt feel you were rejecting me. If I actually tried my best at something, youd never throw it back in my face. And for that, Tiger Mom, thank you. Yours, Sophia61. In the authors opinion, why do some people criticize her mother? A. They dont know the truth. B. They have a different culture. C. They arent strict with their children. D.
