BDuring lunch all my friends were talking about their families plans for winter break, and I was alittlejealous since myparents couldnttake a vacationduring Christmas week.Icame home fromschoolthat day to findanewsletter from the JewishmunityCenter, which containedan ad for an“alternative vacation” munity-service trip to New Orleans during Christmasweek.

OnChristmasDay, weworkedata centerforhomelesspeople.Thepeoplereally appreciated our work, andwe feltlike we hadmadeChristmasalittlemore specialfor them. My favorite project was helping at an animal rescue center. We walked the animals, cleaned their places, and fed them. Six thousanddogs and cats, separated from their owners, were rescued by that shelter after the hurricane.WhenI returned to New York and told myfriends about my trip, I realized how ridiculous lhad beento be jealous of their Christmas plans. Ilooked around at my house, my dog, my familyand everything I owned andfeltreallyspoiled.All the things I saw in New Orleans,allthe amazing peopleImet andthe small wayslwas able to contribute to the rebuildingofthecitymadethatweekthemostmemorablevacationIcan imagine.24.

B.Helping the homeless.C.Working with animals.D.Dining with survivors.26. What can be the besttitle for thetext? A.The Most Memorable Day B.My Special Christmas Vacation C.Post-Disaster Reconstruction D.ABig Contribution to SocietyCSummers around the world are already warmer than they used to be, and they are going to get dramatically hotter by the centurys end if carbon pollution continues to rise. That problem will be felt most acutely in cities. The worlds rapidly growing population coupled with the urban “heat island” effect, which can make cities up to 7.8 warmer than the countryside, adds up to a recipe for dangerous and potentially deadly heat. Currently, about 54 percent of the worlds population lives in cities, and by 2050 the urban population is expected to have grown by 2.5 billion people. As those cities get hotter, weather patterns may shift and make extreme heat even more mon. That will, in turn, threaten public health and the economy. Under the high-pollution situation, currently mild Ottawa, Canada could have the tropical climate of Belize City by 2100. Mountainous Kabul, Afghanistan could feel like coastal Colombo, India. Already hot Cairo, Egypt could feel like its sweltering (悶熱的) neighbor, Abu Dhabi. The average land temperature is projected to rise 4.8, but due to the differences in geography, some cities will warm much more. Sofia, Bulgaria is predicted to have the biggest overall temperature shift, with temperatures rising nearly 8.4 by 2100. That would make its summers more like in Egypt. The average summer temperature in Khartoum, Sudan is projected to skyrocket to 44.1 if carbon pollution continues to be unchecked. That shift emphasizes that unless carbon pollution is limited, the planet could be headed toward a state that humans have never experienced.Dealing with less extreme heat makes adaptation easier and less expensive, and given that choice, perhaps its no surprise cities are leading the charge on climate change. They face the worst impacts of extreme heat and are home to billions. Thats why thousands of mayors from around the world have banded together and promised to reduce their emissions. That includes lots of U.S. cities mitting to meet the Paris Agreement goals after President Trump announced he was pulling the U.S. out of the agreement.27. What may happen by the end of the century according to the passage?A. Carbon pollution will be worse and worse. B. The worlds population living in cities will decline. C. The temperature in cities will be too high to bear in summer. D. The economy and population will be impacted severely by pollution. 28. Which city mentioned in the passage will have the greatest climate change?A. Ottawa, Canada. B. Sofia, Bulgaria. C. Khartoum, Sudan. D. Kabul, Afghanistan29. The underlined word “skyrocket” in the sixth paragraph probably means “ ”.A. rise rapidly. B. change gradually C. reverse pletely D. drop naturally30. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Dealing with the climate problems right now is hard and expensive.B. Officials are unwilling to deal with climate change.C. Extreme heat will have no impact on the climate in the countryside.D. Many U.S. cities are dealing with climate problems actively.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中的兩項為多余選項。 How to Pick a Good BookIts not news that we spend more time texting and surfing online than ever. But a recent study shows that more teenagers are reading good old-fashioned and ink-on-paper books. Reading is a good way to widen your knowledge and learn about yourself. You probably know how to find the best application programs for your phone. 31 _1.Start with your interestsReading on your own isnt like reading for school. 32 It could be ancient martial arts, puters, or fashion design. If you can name the subject, you can find books about it.2. Find your “type” 33 Books of fiction, like novels or short-story collections, can transport you to another world or help you to imagine something beyond your own experience. Not all fiction is the same. Try some different types of fiction and see which one you prefer. Non-fiction books give you the “who”, “what”, “when” and “why” of something. They tell stories using facts, but that doesnt mean they are dull.3.Read the “blurb(簡介)”The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many books are known as “blurbs”. These ments not only give you an idea of what the book is about, but also help you to pick out future books. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the blurb and see which authors praised the book. 34 4. 35 Your local library can provide you with a lot of great books.
