Erik Kobayashi-Solomon spent a day with Dr. Paul Gauthier, a plant physiologist specializing in vertical farming research and came away with several important ideas about vertical farming.
Humans have 12,000 years of experience growing food, but only a generation or so worth of experience growing crops indoors. We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (学习曲线). What's more, traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming. Therefore, without taking time to understand the science, vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.
The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome. Dr. Louis Albright at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as " pie-in-the-sky" businesses. He famously calculates, for instance, that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $ 24 if farmed indoors — the cost is too high. Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用), so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.
Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high, vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas. Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again. Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary. It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.
The future is probably mixed. In some environments — the Middle East, for instance — a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer. An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia, for instance, can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland. In other geographies, though, the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar on growth and profitability. A large vertical fanning and equipment operation only started generating a small profit eight years into its nine-year life.
24.What can we infer about vertical farming in Paragraph 2?
A.It will replace traditional farming one day.
B.It relies on research of more basic science.
C.It can be applicable on different conditions.
D.It actually came into being 12,000 years ago.
25.What does Dr. Albright think of vertical farms?
A.They use less light than traditional ones.
B.They may seem very unlikely to succeed.
C.They can overcome many problems in farming.
D.They do not need any natural sunlight any longer.
26.What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A.The ways of reducing costs of vertical fanning.
B.The secrets of developing vertical farming.
C.The recent trend of vertical farming.
D.The benefits of vertical farming.
27.Why is the example of “an indoor farm in Saudi Arabia” mentioned?
A.To show vertical fanning can work well in some places.
B.To prove solar energy is vital for farming in Saudi Arabia.
C.To confirm the expense of setting up a vertical farm is high.
D.To argue vegetables do not need to be imported any longer.
C
Not all bad emotions (情感) are necessarily bad. In fact, they can direct your behaviour in useful ways. If you’re stuck in traffic, anger with the situation might motivate you to find an alternative route (线路), which will then relieve your stress. But anger is less useful if you’re in the same situation, but stuck on a motorway with no option to alter directions.
Emotions have physiological effects, such as raising the level of cortisol in your bloodstream, which can affect your health. Indeed, a new study, published in Psychology and Aging, shows that high levels of anger are associated with poor health in older people.
The Canadian study did the study on 226 adults aged 59-93. They took blood samples to assess levels of chronic (慢性的) low-grade inflammation (炎症) and asked the participants to report any age-related chronic illnesses they might have. The participants also completed a short questionnaire about the level of anger or sadness they experienced in three typical days over a one-week period.
For the analysis, the researchers considered whether age could affect the results. They found that higher levels of anger were associated with inflammation and ill health in the oldest participants (aged 80 and above), but not the youngest ones (59-79 years). Sadness was not associated with inflammation or ill health in either age group.
The study is cross-sectional, meaning that it assessed a group of people at a single point in time. To get a fuller understanding of the relationship between bad emotions and health, we need studies that follow participants for a period of time — so-called prospective observation studies. Future studies should also take into account other factors that might relate, such as other emotions, stress and personality.
Although this new research shows a link between emotion and health in older age, we do not know whether anger causes inflammation and illness or whether health problems make people angrier.
28.What does the underlined word “alter” in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Change. B.Control.
C.Measure. D.Operate.
29.Why were participants taken blood samples?
A.To analyze their levels of health.
B.To fill in the form of questionnaires.
C.To know the levels of some inflammation.
D.To compare the change of anger in three days.
30.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.Anger is the greatest danger to health.
B.The influence of anger on illness is unclear.
C.People in poor health are easy to get angry.
D.Evidence is needed to prove the effect of health.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Adjusting Our Emotions Is Necessary
B.Bad Emotions Affect People’s Feelings
C.New Conclusions Make People Amazed
D.Anger Is Linked to Illness in Old Age
D
It used to be mostly the army that used small, unpiloted aircraft, called “drones”. The little planes were very costly. But as they have dropped in price more people have begun to use them.
The fast rate of development of computer technology, image sensing equipment, satellite navigation and smart phones has led to lower-priced drones. Researchers and developers have learned how to build smaller and less costly drones. Nowadays, moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky. Historians use them when they explore ancient buildings. Rescue workers use them to look for people. And now farmers are also using them to watch over their crops.
Romain Faroux is a French businessman, whose father was a farmer. He believed drones could help farmers. He has helped create a company which has developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the ground. It’s called “Agridrone”. It uses a special sensor to examine crops. The technology used on the drone is similar to that used on a smartphone -- except it has wings. A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops. The sensor on the drone records four different-colored “bands” of sunlight that are reflected off the crops.
Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is another farmer in France who is using a drone. He says the drone flies over his crops at different times of the season and provides a lot of information about his crops. The pictures taken by the drone show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops
need. It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.
Romain Faroux says farmers use information provided by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it is needed. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before they used the drones, farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere. Drones also save time because farmers can examine up to three hectares (英亩) in about a minute.
32. Why do rescue workers and farmers begin to use drones?
A. Because they are affordable now.
B. Because their sizes have become smaller.
C. Because they can save people a lot of time.
D. Because the technology has been developed.
33. What is the sensor on the drone mainly used for?
A. Helping the sunlight shine on the crops.
B. Directing the wings to fly over the crops.
C. Examining the different colors of the crops.
D. Recording the sunlight “bands” reflected off the crops.
34. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A. A smartphone. B. A sensor.
C. A drone. D. A band.
35. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Crops will be harvested by drones soon.
B. Drones will be widely used in different fields.
C. French farmers use drones to examine their crops.
D. Farmers develop special drones for their crops.

“The calm before the storm” is a very familiar expression. It is usually used to describe a peaceful period just before a very stressful situation or a tense argument. 36. They noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become calm and the winds would drop.
But why is it often so calm before a storm? 37. According to US website HowStuffWorks, a calm period occurs because many storms, tornadoes and hurricanes draw in all the warm and damp air from the surrounding area. As this air rises into the storm clouds, it cools and acts as “ fuel for the storm ,like petrol in a car. “
Once the storm has taken all the energy it can from the air, it is pushed out from the top of the storm clouds and falls back down to ground level. 38. So once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm.
39. First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer. A good judgement is that if your count is below 30 seconds, you should seek shelter straight away.
However, due to the complexity of storm system ,calm doesn't always go first. So, your best bet is to keep yourself updated with weather reports for any predictions regarding a coming storm in your area. 40.
A. Science has given us the answer.
B. There is no definite answer to the question.
C. Weather reports sometimes cannot be trusted.
D. British sailors coined the phrase in the late l600s.
E. As the air declines, it becomes warm and dry, which is stable.
F. The Weather Network has a tip for working out how far away a storm is.
G. That's the most reliable way to predict the next display of nature's temper.

Every time we get on a plane, we’re asked to neither turn off our phones or change it to flight mode - it’s for “security reasons”. But actually, have to turn our phones off on a plane is a service issue, not a safe one. When we speak on our phones in air, the aircraft’s radios can be disturb. Pilots can hear this interference in their headphone. Though speaking on a phone during a flight isn’t dangerous, but it isn’t a good idea. Now things are beginning to change. The breakthrough could be “pico cells”, that are small cell towers on the plane. One day, perhaps, we will be chatting in the air as many as we chat on the ground.

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍垂直农场。Erik Kobayashi-Solomon与从事垂直农场研究的植物生理学家Paul Gauthier博士进行了一天的交流,得出了几个关于垂直农场的重要观点。
24.推理判断题。根据第二段中What's more, traditional farming techniques are based on
conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming. Therefore, without taking time to understand the science, vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.“更重要的是,传统的农业技术所基于的条件并不适用于垂直农业。因此,如果不花时间去理解科学,垂直农业就不太可能实现其隐含的承诺。”可知,垂直农业依赖于更多基础科学的研究。故选B。
25.推理判断题。根据第三段中The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome. Dr. Louis Albright at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as “pie-in-the-sky” businesses.为LED种植灯供电的成本是垂直农场必须克服的最大问题之一。康奈尔大学的路易斯·奥尔布赖特博士将垂直农场描述为“天上掉馅饼”的生意。可知,Dr. Albright垂直农业似乎不太可能成功。故选B。

27.推理判断题。根据最后一段中An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia, for instance, can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland. In other geographies, though, the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar on growth and profitability.“例如,沙特阿拉伯的一个室内农场可以使用太阳能以较低的成本为LED供电,而不会遮挡其他农田。然而,在其它地区,建立一个设施的成本对增长和盈利能力提出了很高的要求。”可知,文中提到an indoor farm in Saudi Arabia是为了说明垂直扇风在某些地方可以很好地工作。故选A。
C
本文是一篇说明文。研究表明,不是所有的负面情绪都是糟糕的,然而就老年人来说,愤怒有时会影响健康。
28.词义猜测题。根据前句If you’re stuck in traffic, anger with the situation might motivate you to find an alternative route (线路), which will then relieve your stress.(如果你被困在交通堵塞中,对这种情况的愤怒可能会促使你去寻找另一条路线,这将会减轻你的压力)提到对处境的怒火会激发我们找替代路线。再根据划线词所在句意“但是如果你处于同一处境,卡在高速公路没有其他的办法________路线时,愤怒就不会那么有用了”可知alter应该意为:寻找替代路线,更换,划线词与Change意思一致。故选A。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段中的They took blood samples to assess levels of chronic (慢性的) low-grade inflammation (炎症) and asked the participants to report any age-related chronic illnesses they might have.可知,他们采集了血样来评估慢性低度炎症的程度,并要求参与者报告他们可能患有的任何与年龄有关的慢性疾病。由此可知,抽取血样是为了了解某种炎症的程度。故选C。

health in older age, we do not know whether anger causes inflammation and illness or whether health problems make people angrier.可知,尽管这项新研究显示了情绪与老年健康之间的联系,但我们不知道愤怒是否会导致炎症和疾病,还是健康问题会让人更加愤怒。由此可知,愤怒对疾病的影响到目前还是不确定的。故选B。
31.主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了愤怒与老年人的疾病有关,如实验结果的由来、实施过程等,故D选项Anger Is Linked to Illness in Old Age(愤怒与年老时的疾病有关)适合作本文的标题。故选D。
D
这是一篇说明文。无人机曾是军方专用的飞行器,但是现在它被应用于越来越多的领域。以及说明了一位法国商人创建了一家公司,开发了一种可以由地面人员控制的小型无人机,可以帮助法国农民检查庄稼,和另一位农民使用无人机来提供施肥信息。
32.细节理解题。根据第一段中But as they have dropped in price more people have begun to use them.(但是随着它们价格的下降,越来越多的人开始使用它们)可知救援人员和农民开始使用无人机是因为他们现在买得起了。故选A。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句The sensor on the drone records four different-colored “bands” of sunlight that are reflected off the crops.(无人机上的传感器记录了四个不同颜色的“光带”,它们被作物反射)可知无人机上的传感器主要用于记录作物反射的阳光“光带”。故选D。
34.词义猜测题。根据后文has wings无人机使用的技术与智能手机类似,只是无人机有机翼。可知第3段划线的“it”一词可能指的是无人机。故选C。
35.主旨大意题。根据第三段中Romain Faroux is a French businessman, whose father was a farmer. He believed drones could help farmers. He has helped create a company which has developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the ground.(Romain Faroux是一位法国商人,他的父亲是一位农民。他相信无人机可以帮助农民。他帮助创建了一家公司,开发了一种可以由地面人员控制的小型无人机)以及文章主要内容围绕着无人机帮助法国农民检查庄稼,故D选项“法国农民用无人机检查庄稼”符合文章主旨大意。故选D。
第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)
这是一篇说明文。文章就“暴风雨前的宁静”这一说法做出了科学的解释。并且说明了一种计算暴风雨距离的窍门。同时告诉读者随时更新天气预报是预测下一个自然气象最可靠的方法。
36. D 根据下文They noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become calm and
the winds would drop. 可知,他们注意到,在某些暴风雨来临之前,海面似乎会变得平静,风也会减弱。根据代词They可推理上文为指人提出这一说法。故选D“英国水手在16世纪晚期创造了这个短语”切题。故选D。
37. A 根据上文But why is it often so calm before a storm? 可知,但是为什么暴风雨来临前总是那么平静呢?下文应就此做出回答。故A项“科学已经给了我们答案” 切题。故选A。
38. E 根据下文So once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm. 可知,所以一旦它覆盖了一个区域,它就会在风暴前形成一段平静期。下文为覆盖,反之可推理上文应为空气下降,故E选项“当空气下降,它变得温暖和干燥,这是稳定的”。切题。故选E。
39. F 根据后文First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer. A good judgement is that if your count is below 30 seconds, you should seek shelter straight away. 可知,首先数一下闪电和雷声之间有多少秒,大约三秒等于一公里。一个最佳判断是如果你的计数低于30秒,你应该立即寻求庇护。可知是在介绍一个预测暴风雨距离的方法。故F选项“气象网络有一个计算风暴距离的小窍门”切题。故选F。
40. G 根据上文So, your best bet is to keep yourself updated with weather reports for any predictions regarding a coming storm in your area. 可知,你最好的办法就是随时更新天气预报,预测你所在地区即将来临的暴风雨。下文应继续就此展开说明。故G选项“这是预测下一个自然脾气表现的最可靠的方法” 切题。故选G。

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍一幅长度为1014. 37米的画——the Simatai Great Wall。它获得了吉尼斯世界纪录的头衔,成为个人绘画时间最长的作品。
61.考查名词。句意:一幅长度为1014. 37米的画获得了吉尼斯世界纪录的头衔,成为个人绘画时间最长的作品。with a length of“长度为……”。不定冠词用在名词前面,所给词long“长的”,是形容词,其名词是length“长度”。故填length。
62.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:在周六,这项纪录在四马台长城公布,四马台被初秋翠绿的群山环绕。此处the Simatai Great Wall是先行词,指物,在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语,应使用which引导。故填which。

第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题:每小题1分,满分10分)
本文是说明文,介绍了在飞机上,要求我们关机或者将飞机调到飞行模式。现在由于微基站技术的突破,也许有一天我们能够在飞机上聊天。
71.考查并列连词。句意:每次上飞机时,我们都被要求要么关机,要么把手机调到飞行模式。根据句意,此处是either…or并列结构,意思为“要么……要么,或者……或者”。故neither改为either。
72.考查代词。前面提到“turn off our phones”,phones是复数,应用them指代。故it改为them。
73.考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,have to turn our phones off on a plane在句子中作主语,应用动名词作主语。故have改为having。
74.考查名词。句意:但实际上,在飞机上关机是服务问题,而不是安全问题。此处“安全问题”是名词修饰名词,故safe改为safety。
75.考查固定短语。 in the air“在空中”,是固定短语。故in后面加上the。
76.考查被动语态。句意:当我们在空中打电话时,飞机上的无线电可能会受到干扰。主语the aircraft’s radios和disturb之间为逻辑上的被动关系,前面有be动词,因此disturb应用过去分词,构成被动结构。故disturb改为disturbed。
77.考查名词单复数。前面 pilots是复数,headphone相应地用复数形式。故headphone改为headphones。
78.考查从属连词。句意:虽然在飞行中打电话并不危险,但这不是一个好主意。在让步状语从句中,although和but不能连用。故去掉but。
79.考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子结构,“that are small cell towers on the plane”是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词pico cells,指物,在从句中作主语;that不能引导非限制性定语从句,应用which。故that改为which。
80.考查固定短语。根据句意“也许有一天,我们会在空中聊天,就像在地面上聊天一样。”as much as 表示“ 像......一样”。 故many改为much。

M: Shall we go somewhere quiet?
(Text 6)
M: Could you take this down to the accounting office for me, please?
W: Sure, Mr. Stone. I was just on my way down to the shipping department which is on the 5th floor, anyway. Accounting is just one floor above it, so it's right on the way.

(Text 10)
M: Well, Monica, I'm sure you'll enjoy working here. I'm the librarian. We're open from half past eight in the morning until eight in the evening but you're not expected to be here all that time. You start working at a quarter to nine and finish at a quarter past five, OK?
Now, students aren't allowed to bring large bags into the library. But staff can bring their bags in and leave them in the office. You have an hour for lunch. But I don't like staff eating in the library. Of course you can have a cup of coffee there while you're working. If you bring sandwiches for lunch, there's a common room downstairs where you can eat them. If you want to buy lunch, I'd recommended the dining room upstairs. There are cafés in the town center but it's a bit of rush to get there and back in an hour though they're cheap. OK. Any questions?
