【题目】Climate change has had a number of effects on cities around the world, including rising see levels. And, this has become an especially big problem for coastal cities. City officials must now prepare for higher tides on their coasts. The American city of Miami is one example. Located in South Florida, Miami is home to nearly 3 million people and billions of dollars in land and buildings.
Miami is one of the cities in America most at risk for rising sea levels. The waterfront is central to Miami’s culture and economy. But as the seas rise with climate change .the water will not stay put. Large parts of South Florida are in danger of being under water in the coming years. Across Biscayne Bay, the City of Miami Beach is making improvements - raising streets, adding water pumps and more.
It is costing the city a lot of money. Local communities will spend 500 million dollars for the improvements. Thankfully, the residents, the folks that are paying the bill for this work, realize that the cost of doing nothing is much greater. A possibility officials are discussing with residents is for city to buy homes in some places where flooding has been a problem. The city would then turn that land into parks of grassland that could hold the water.
Over time, the city may need to take bigger risks. Miami’s future depends largely on how much, and how fast, the oceans rise.
Caroline Lewis leads the climate activism group, the CLEO Institute. She says cities cannot avoid the need to move inland. But, she says,a well-planned withdrawal (撤退) could include measures to keep people safely in place for as long as possible. And, she says, the world could learn from such a model. In these two Florida cities built on wetlands, there remains a lot of hopefulness.
【1】What threat does the city of Miami face?
A. It needs people’s support to keep safe.
B. It will be flooded with rising sea water.
C. It doesn’t know how to get out of trouble.
D. It needs much money to slop rising water.
【2】What does the underlined part “stay put” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Keep rising. B. Make trouble.
C. Remain still. D. Spread in one direction.
【3】What do the people there agree to do with their problem?
A. Leave as it is. B. Get ready to flee.
C. Donate money for it. D. Take action against it.
【4】Which of the following best matches Caroline Lewis’ opinion?
A. Making coastal cities exist as long as possible.
B. Warning the world of such a natural disaster.
C. Ensuring people to live there safely forever.
D. Moving coastal cities to safe places soon.

【题目】(2013·山东卷)Sparrow is a fast-food chain with 200 restaurants.Some years ago,the group to which Sparrow belonged was taken over by another company.Although Sparrow showed no sign of declining,the chain was generally in an unhealthy state.With more and more fast-food concepts reaching the market,the Sparrow menu had to struggle for attention.And to make matters worse,its new owner had no plans to give it the funds it required.
Sparrow failed to grow for another two years until a new CEO,Carl Pearson,decided to build up its market share.He did a survey,which showed that consumers who already used Sparrow restaurants were extremely positive about the chain,while customers of other fast-food chains were unwilling to turn away fromthem.Sparrow had to develop a new promotional campaign.
Pearson faced a battle over the future of the Sparrow brand.The chain's owner now favored rebranding Sparrow as Marcy's restaurants.Pearson resisted,arguing for an advertising campaign designed to convince customers that visits to Sparrow restaurants were fun.Such an attempt to establish a positive relationship between a company and the general public was unusual for that time.Pearson strongly believed that numbers were the key to success,rather than customers' spending power.Finally,the owner accepted his idea.
The campaign itself changed the traditional advertising style of the fast-food industry.The TV ads of Sparrow focused on entertainment and featured original songs performed by a variety of stars.Instead of showing the superiority of a specific product,the intention was to put Sparrow in the hearts of potential customers.
Pearson also made other decisions which he believed would contribute to the new Sparrow image.For example,he offered to lower the rent of any restaurants which achieved a certain increase in their turnover(营业额).
These efforts paid off,and Sparrow soon became one of the most successful fast-food chains in the regions where it operated.
【1】Which was one of the problems Sparrow faced before Pearson became CEO?
A.The number of its customers was declining.
B.Its customers found the food unhealthy.
C.It was in need of financial support.
D.Most of its restaurants were closed.
【2】What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Customers of Sparrow restaurants.
B.Sparrow restaurants.
C.Customers of other fast-food chains.
D.Other fast-food chains.
【3】For what purpose did Pearson start the advertising campaign?
A.To build a good relationship with the public.
B.To stress the unusual tradition of Sparrow.
C.To learn about customers' spending power.
D.To meet the challenge from Marcy's restaurants.
【4】What was Pearson's achievement as a CEO?
A.He managed to pay off Sparrow's debts.
B.He made Sparrow much more competitive.
C.He helped Sparrow take over a company.
D.He improved the welfare of Sparrow employees.

【题目】 It is well known that male humpback whales(座头鲸)are skilled singers.Their songs are thought to attract females in high frequency sounds while to compete with other males in low frequency sounds.Research led by the Wildlife Conservation Society has now made a new discovery.
The study looked at the songs of two humpback whale populations, based on sound recordings collected from 2013 to 2018.One group was based in the South Atlantic, off the coast of Gabon, and the other in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar.Analysis of the recordings showed that the two groups picked up musical ideas from each other and borrowed phrases and themes into their latest song.This suggested that the males from the two groups came into contact with each other over the five years and shared songs.
To uncover this musical cooperation, researchers recorded the songs and transcribe them into more than 1,500 individual sounds and patterns, or song units.They found that the units were composed into larger phrases, which were then repeated to form themes.These themes were sung for hours at a time, or even days.By 2018, both populations have been singing largely the same songs.
"This similarity in the songs shows that these two populations come into closer contact than other southern populations, explains Dr Melinda Rekdahl, leading author of the study.As well as being an interesting phenomenon, she explains that those songs allow even greater insight into the workings of the humpback whale populations.
【1】What do people usually think of the purpose of male humpback whales' songs?
A. To have fun.
B. To attract other fish.
C. To increase the population of their group.
D. To attract females and compete with other males.
【2】How could the two groups of humpback whales in research sing similar songs?
A. They were born with those songs.
B. The researchers composed similar songs for them.
C. The male whales from the two groups learned singing from each other.
D. The male whales taught the females songs from the other group.
【3】What does the underlined word"transcribe in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Change.B. Describe.
C. Create.D. Enjoy.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A. A Kind of Magic Whales.B. Male Humpback Whales Share Songs.
C. The Biggest Ocean Animals.D. The Workings of Humpback Whale Populations.
