26、Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal(北方的)forest fires were in terms of emissions. The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study.

Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal (封存) carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink. But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source.

In all, fires in boreal forests released the carbon sink and produced nearly half a billion metric tons of carbon in 2021.That’s more carbon than the entire continent of Australia produced the same year, though some of the emissions produced by the fires will be sucked back up as forests regrow.

The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from. They found that boreal forests, which typically produce about 10 percent of the globe’s annual wildfire emissions, accounted for 23 percent of the world’s wildfire emissions in 2021—more than twice as much as normal.

Canadell, who led the study, is most concerned about the study’s main takeaway; Boreal forests have served an important and underappreciated role in sequestering carbon emissions, but climate change threatens to release that carbon. “We need to be very careful with these systems in terms of their future development,” he said.

【1】What is the function of paragraph 2?

A．To explain the source of carbon.

B．To illustrate two scientific concepts.

C．To indicate the seriousness of the fire.

D．To show the importance of boreal forests.

【2】How did the scientists get needed data?

A．By employing technology.

B．By searching on the website.

C．By analyzing previous data.

D．By turning to the firefighters.

【3】What does the underlined word “sequestering” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

A．Assessing.

B．Increasing.

C．Monitoring.

D．Preventing.

【4】What is mainly talked about in the text?

A．The reasons for the forest fires in the north.

B．The impact of the 2021 boreal forest fires.

C．The link between fires and carbon dioxide.

D．The increasingly growing carbon emissions.

27、   He runs from explosions, drives over waterfalls and jumps from tall buildings. That might sound like Superman, but stuntman(特技演员) Vince Deadrick Jr. is very much human.

As a stuntman in movies and television shows, Deadrick admits he’s no stranger to getting hurt. He has suffered broken bones, bled, gotten knocked out and nearly fallen to death, but he considers himself lucky to be alive after some of the stunts he has performed.

Deadrick has been a stunt coordinator(协调员) for the Nickelodeon channel for 12 years. He has worked with famous actors, directors and producers, and he has travelled all over the world. But that doesn’t mean his work is easy.

It took him years of hard work to get where he is today. Deadrick’s father, Vince Deadrick Sr., was also a stuntman, but his family connection didn’t give Deadrick a free pass into the movie business. He learned from his dad how to set up cardboard boxes and fall mats for high falls, and he started training on his own once he decided to follow in his father's footsteps.

As a stunt coordinator, Deadrick takes danger seriously. When he hires a new stunt performer, he looks for a professional(专业人士).

“You’re only as good as the people you hire,” he says. A stuntman needs to know his own abilities and limitations so he won’t shy away from doing his best but also won’t be such a daredevil(铤而走险的人) that he could hurt himself or others.

When the actors and stuntmen are going to do something dangerous, they need to know they’re trusting the right person. With over 40 years in the business, Deadrick is an expert at making stunts both realistic and safe.

Though he has a large amount of responsibility, Deadrick loves his job.

“I’m in a position where I have to make decisions on risk factors, keeping the actors and stuntmen safe while still making it look impressive. I love my business, and I love the excitement.”

【1】It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that Deadrick is_____.

A.careless B.unfortunate

C.optimistic D.generous

【2】What do we know about Deadrick’s path to success?

A.He learned his stunt skills from a stuntman.

B.He made it with hard work and great effort.

C.His dad offered him great encouragement.

D.His dad led him into the movie business.

【3】When hiring stuntmen,Deadrick___.

A.is very careful B.prefers the fearless ones

C.likes those with no limitations D.puts experience above all else

【4】What does Deadrick think of his job?

A.Hard and boring. B.Easy and attractive.

C.Skilled but relaxing. D.Challenging but exciting.

28、He came to Britain, 16, with a handful of qualifications, $ 5 in pocket and a burning ambition. Thirty-five years later, Vijay, 51, and his brother, Bhikhu, own a drug company which does $234 million worth of business each year. Together they are worth $ 280 million and now they have been jointly named “Entrepreneur of the Year”.

It is an inspirational tale. Yet despite their wealth and this award, Vijay remains modest about their success. He praises his mother, “She is an incredible lady. She taught us hard work, honesty and we have based our lives on those qualities.”

In 1967, Vijay kissed his mother goodbye to London to make his fortune. “I had little other than my qualifications and $ 5,” says Vijay. “But to go with those, I had a huge ambition to make something of myself,” he recalls. Typically, Vijay looks on the bright side. “When you start from zero, things can’t get any worse. You have only one way to go and that’s up if there is a hunger in your stomach for success.” Vijay says. “My brother and I were determined to better ourselves and Britain was the land of opportunity.”

By 1982, he had owned six chemist’s shops, when Bhikhu, a then financial analyst, joined him, adding some financial discipline to his company. Vijay says, “I simply couldn’t have done it without him.” As he puts it, “Brought up under one roof, we understand one another from A to Z.”

Vijay is keen to continue repaying the country he has made his own. “We hope we are model citizens and would like to remain so,” he says. “We are lucky enough to live in a country that never stands in our way.” His message for young people is to do the same: Identify your aim, and do not let anything discourage you from achieving that goal.

【1】What did Vijay possess when starting his business?

A．Some qualifications and an ambition.

B．A drug company worth $ 234 million.

C．Six chemist’s shops worth $ 280 million.

D．The title “Entrepreneur of the Year”.

【2】What is the recipe for Vijay’s success?

A．His brother’s financial aid.

B．His identity of model citizen.

C．His never-give-up spirit.

D．Encouraging quotes from mom.

【3】Which can probably replace the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4?

A．We share something in common.

B．We know each other inside out.

C．We count on each other in career.

D．We two together create fire and water.

【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A．A Modest Successful Chemist

B．The Significance of Mothers’ Love

C．The Power of Deep Brotherhood

D．From Penniless to Millionaire

29、George Santayana, a philosopher, said those who don’t learn from history are doomed to (注定) repeat it. In other words, if you fail to learn from past mistakes, you’re likely to make them yourself. 【1】 In addition to providing the knowledge of the past, studying history helps develop transferable (可转移的) skills that will prepare you for various career opportunities down the road. So why not explore useful strategies that will improve the effectiveness of your study?

【2】 While reading your textbook, always try and place events, dates, locations, and details within the context of the big picture. How do they fit in? Why are they important to what’s going on? How do they support the sequence of events occurring? There isn’t anything you can’t memorize if you employ this technique.

Watch movies! While educational, most historical films and documentaries are also very entertaining. 【3】 Thus, if you are serious about learning history, ensure the movie you select is true to historical facts.

Keep important information. To memorize key dates, names and events, you can employ a flashcard, on one side of which writes a key event, date or fact. On the opposite side, write the definition, description or explanation. 【4】 But it’s just as effective today as it was one hundred years ago.

Take notes in class. Write down only those truly significant things. To achieve this, listen carefully in class and determine which are the most important points made during a lecture. 【5】 More importantly, organize your notes by topic, then years, decades and centuries, use arrows and other notation (符号) devices to identify important information.

A．If in doubt, raise your hand and ask.

B．Establish connections between different facts.

C．The use of flashcards for memorizing is age-old.

D．But there are many other reasons for studying history.

E．Watching movies can be an effective method to memorize historical facts.

F．Unluckily, some films that describe historical events aren’t true to historical facts.

G．Add new information and insights you learn during lectures to your reading notes.
