核心素养测评六 Unit 3Amazing people. 阅读理解AFollowing Mo Yans Nobel Prize, the usually silent Chinese literary circle got warmed up again. A Shanghai writer named Jin Yucheng surprised nearly everyone by making his new novel full of the Shanghai dialect(方言). Published in 2023, the 350, 000-word Blossoms is a novel about the changes in Shanghai over 30 years, drawing clear images of the city through the stories of many common people. There is no main story like most novels, but every story in it could run independently. While Putonghua is the standard choice for Chinese literature today, Jins use of the Shanghai dialect appears both different and bold. “I have seen too many novels that look similar to each other. Chinese literature is getting monotonous both in language and form. I want to be special with my own language, Jin told the Global Times. In the novel, Jin makes a breakthrough by mainly using dialogues to unfold various plots and represent typical characters on a daily basis. He also abandons the use of some punctuation like quotation marks(引号), showing a return to the traditional Chinese huaben(话本) genre. Since its publication, the book has been widely recommended on Sina Weibo with many netizens rating the novel high for its unique use of the dialect and vivid description of life using plain speech. Jin said that he got the idea of writing the novel while chatting in an online forum where people use the Shanghai dialect. The praise he received from the netizens encouraged him to continue writing the random stories. “Id like to see more writers to follow my lead. It will enrich our literature and make it diverse, he said. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了上海作家金宇澄的小说?繁花?。1. What can we know from the first two paragraphs? A. The Chinese literary circle is always silent. B.

But the concept itself isnt new at allin fact, scientists have been exploring questions about climate change for almost 200 years. The idea of “greenhouse gases goes back to 1824, when Joseph Fourier wondered what was regulating the earths temperature. Fourier concluded that the atmosphere must be responsible for containing the heat absorbed from the sun and described it as a box with a glass lid: As light shines through the glass, the inside gets warmer as the lid traps the heat. As Fouriers ideas spread, it came to be called “the greenhouse effect. Scientists continued to study the greenhouse effect. Not until a Swedish chemist named Svante Arrhenius came along, did scientists understand how global warming actually works. After years of work, Arrhenius determined that the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere did in fact have a direct effect on global temperatures. Arrhenius found that CO2 and other gases trap radiation, which warms the atmosphere. Arrhenius was the first to suspect that burning coal could contribute to the greenhouse effect. But Arrhenius welcomed the warming effect on the planet. At a lecture later that year, Arrhenius noted that creatures of a warmer earth “might live under a milder sky and in less barren surroundings. While Arrhenius findings won him the 1903 Nobel Prize in chemistry, scientists kept debating whether the greenhouse effect was increasing until 1950, when researchers finally began to find strong data supporting it. By the end of the 1950s, American scientists had been sounding the alarm on the long-term consequences of climate change. Climate change research has come a long way since Fourier first described the greenhouse effectstill, maybe Arrhenius should have been more careful of what he wished for. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学家们对气候变化及其对地球造成影响的探索。5.

They also go through training in how to care for plants. These “astronaut gardeners share their work and living space with plants. Taking seeds and plants along on a trip isnt a new idea. As space trips become longer, it will be necessary to grow food in space. 1 Because of this, its not practical to send everything needed for a long journey, only to be used once and thrown away. Plants can serve many uses on a space journey. They can provide more fresh things. 2 Also, plants can help to make air quality better because they produce oxygen. They can improve the quality of the air inside the spacecraftthe only air the astronauts can breathe. 3 Due to the lack of gravity in space, the oxygen that the plants produce stays around the plants. This can actually kill them, so fans are needed to circulate the air. Without gravity, roots dont “know to grow down, leaves dont “know to grow up, and water doesnt easily travel up the roots to the leaves. 4 Besides, soil is too heavy to send to space, and special liquid gels (凝胶) are used to help plant growth. Scientists are also working on the plants themselves. They are trying to make plants grow more rapidly and grow with less water and light in space, and they are looking for ways to make plants more resistant to disease. 5 Imagine that deserts may one day provide lots of fresh food for local people, saving transportation costs. Similarly, plants that are resistant to disease could provide an important food supply. With the worlds population now at about 7. 7 billion people, our astronaut gardeners may help discover ways to feed those billions. A. Every plant grown in space must have several uses. B. However, there are challenges with growing plants in space. C. Such methods may result in improvements back here on Earth. D. The cost of taking anything into space is about $22, 000 per kilogram. E. Specialized containers are being developed to help the plants grow correctly. F. Astronauts will welcome the addition of fruit and vegetables to their diet of dry foods. G. Currently all oxygen is taken aboard in tanks. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了宇航员在太空种植物的原因和好处以及种植方法。1. 【解析】选D。空后是说将所有所需东西带上太空是不切合实际的; 据此可推知, 空处应是介绍空后一句的原因。故D项“带任何东西到太空的花费大约是每千克22 000美元符合语境。2. 【解析】选F。根据空前一句可知, 植物可以为宇航员提供新鲜的东西; 根据空后一句可知, 植物还可以改善宇宙飞船内的空气质量, 因为其可以产生氧气; 据此可推知, 空处应是介绍太空种植植物的好处, 即宇航员也喜欢在他们的干粮中有新鲜的果蔬食物。故F项正确。3. 【解析】选B。上文介绍了太空种植的好处, 即为宇航员提供新鲜的果蔬、改善宇宙飞船的空气质量等; 结合下文可知, 种植太空果蔬有一定的困难; 据此可知, 空处承上启下, 与上文形成转折关系。故B项正确。4. 【解析】选E。根据上文可知, 在失重的情况下, 植物的根和叶不知道如何生长, 水分也不容易从根部传到叶子上; 而空后一句介绍了关于土壤的解决方法; 据此可推知, 空处应是介绍解决上述问题的方法。故E项“正在研制专门的容器去帮助植物正确地生长符合语境。5. 【解析】选C。根据空前一句可知, 科学家们正在寻找各种让植物少使用水却能在太空快速生长, 而且可以抵抗病害的方法; 且下文又提到改进后的植物对地球的影响; 据此可推知, 空处应是说明这些方法可以在地球上运用以带来积极效果。故C项正确。. 语法填空阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当单词或括号内单词的正确形式。Most 97-year-olds would 1.

His books helped to make science much easier to understand. Here is a brief introduction to his family and early years. As the eldest of Frank and Isobel Hawkings four children, Stephen Hawking was born into a family of thinkers. His Scottish mother earned her way into Oxford University in the 1930s-a time when few women were able to go to college. His father, another Oxford graduate, was a medical researcher. Stephen Hawkings birth came at an inopportune time for his parents, who didnt have much money. And England was dealing with World War . In an effort to look for a safer place, Isobel returned to Oxford to have their first child. The Hawkings would go on to have two other children, Mary (1943) and Philippa (1947). And their second son, Edward, was adopted in 1956. In 1950, Hawkings father was sent to Africa and spent the winter months there doing research. He wanted his eldest child to go into medicine, but at an early age, Hawking showed an interest in science and the sky. That was clear to his mother, who, along with her children, often relaxed in the backyard on summer
