21、 When returning to south-western Germany, where my parents live, it is compulsory for me to go on a hike to connect with nature and reconnect with myself. So, that is exactly what I did the first sunny Sunday back in the beautiful Black Forest. The Huzenbacher See is a tarn in the middle of the northern Black Forest with abundant nature surrounding it. Approaching it after a good hour walk, I saw fascinating blue dragonflies in quantity that attracted us by the way they flew around. They didn’t stand still for a photo, as they landed on leaves for a split second. We were also surprised at the yellow water lilies that can be seen floating on its surface between June and July.
Sitting down at one of the benches surrounding the lake for a picnic was satisfying in two ways. I was aware of the world’s beauty that gave me the energy to continue up the mountain to reach the most amazing view looking over the lake. The other was to really fill myself up in order to continue the adventure adequately, full up on some snacks and refreshing water from the well.
The hike up wasn’t as hard as expected and a good path was provided with dirty rocks and slippery stones all under the shade of the tall trees. This took about an hour and a half until reaching the beautiful view of the lake and land below. Once we had taken in the astonishing views, the walk back down took another hour or so, making the hike a 3-to4-hour round trip, which was well worth it!
Simply being back in the Black Forest and having such pleasant hikes is definitely good for the soul and I highly recommend getting yourself outside, be it in the Black Forest or anywhere outdoors. Get your intake of vitamin D and, most importantly, take in the moments that nature has to offer.
【1】What does the underlined word “tarn” in paragraph I refer to?
A. Tree. B. Tower.
C. Lake D. Village.
【2】How did the author feel when sitting on the bench?
A. Tired. B. Content.
C. Surprised. D. Excited.
【3】What did the author call on people to do?
A. Take vitamin D pills. B. Love and protect nature.
C. Save the soul and be yourself. D. Go outdoors and get close to nature.
【4】According to the author, being back in the Black Forest and having pleasant hikes does good to one’s ________.
A. health B. spirit
C. character D. experience
22、You plan and hope, keeping a close eye on the forecast. Even so, the vacation you expect gets ruined by the bad weather. I’m pretty sure that everyone has their story of the plans messed up by weather forecasts. 【1】Why is it that even with all the technological wonders in the world, it’s still a challenge to predict the weather?
【2】A lot of data from different sources, like satellites, are accumulated and analyzed. Powerful computers use this data to make predictions. The idea of using numerical analysis to predict the weather originated in the 1920s with Lewis Fry Richardson’s writings. Later, with the help of supercomputers, this became a more practical approach.
Weather forecasts often go wrong, but not quite as often as you might think. We tend to focus mostly on what goes wrong, so it feels like the forecasts are always inaccurate. A five-day forecast is actually pretty accurate — 【3】For a seven-day forecast, the numbers go down to about 80%. But add more days and the uncertainty necessarily builds. These numbers are also much better than what they used to be. 【4】
To determine the state of the atmosphere at any point, and therefore make a forecast, several different changes must be taken into account. 【5】The changes are used as initial conditions that can be fed into mathematical models. The models are designed based on patterns in historical data and the typical behavior of weather. Advancements in data collection and the processing power of computers also help explain why forecasts today have improved so dramatically.
A.You can trust the forecast at your own risk.
B.Why are our weather forecasts so inaccurate?
C.The forecasts are right about 90% of the time.
D.Weather forecasting is a complicated process.
E.These deal with wind, temperature, pressure, and others.
F.A five-day forecast today is as accurate as a one-day forecast in 1980.
G.There are many changes involved in describing the state of the atmosphere.
23、 What picture do you have of the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you hope about the future?
Futurologists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields of activity, from entertainment to technology. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a program from a 'menu' and a computer will send the program directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programs, newspapers and books will come to us by computer.
In what concerns the environment, water will have become one of our most serious problems. Demand for water will increase ten times between now and 2050 and there could be serious shortages. Some futurologists predict that water could be the cause of war if we don't act now.
In transport, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed of the cars and there won't be any accidents. Today many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination.
In the domain of technology, robots will have replaced people in factories. Many factories already use robots. Big companies prefer robots-they do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere — in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Last but not least, medicine technology will have conquered many diseases. Today scientists have discovered how to control genes. They have already produced clones of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. Scientists will be able to do these things-but should they?
【1】What's the purpose of the first paragraph?
A.To arouse the interest of the reader.
B.To tell the background of the passage.
C.To introduce the topic of the passage.
D.To describe the pictures of the future.
【2】We can know from the passage that?
A.computers will finally take the place of the media nowadays.
B.robots will completely have replaced people in factories.
C.computers will tell drivers exactly where they are in the future.
D.it is more convenient to choose programs sent by the computer.
【3】What's the authors attitude towards the life by 2050?
A.Excited but pessimistic.
B.Optimistic but worried.
C.Eager but afraid.
D.Confident but cautious.
【4】It can be inferred from the last paragraph that?
A.all diseases will not be conquered by scientists.
B.scientists have known the way to produce genes.
C.scientists have produced clones of people.
D.the clones of animals have a long way to go.
