【正文】 and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock. 41. The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that . A. he had to live in a dark and silent world B. a terrible traffic accident happened to him C. he was struck by the lightning once more D. nobody in the world cared about him 42.

What did Robert see first when he regained his sight after the shock? A. A plough and a wall. B. His neighbors. C. His wife who called for help to save him. D. Many doctors surrounding him. 44. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Robert had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years. B. Robert hid himself under the tree for 20 minutes. C. Robert could hear his wife’s shouting for help when he woke up. D. The family’s love helped Robert regain confidence to live. 45. We can infer from the text that ________. A. many doctors came because Robert was badly injured B. a sudden injury in the head led to Robert’s recovery C. Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock D. there was no accurate explanation for Robert’s recovery C The temperature is sharply rising with each passing day. People, including many experts, find it difficult to slow down the process. However, leaving coal and major fossil fuels in the ground could help to limit climate change in the future, according to a new study. That is to say, a third of oil reserves on the earth, half of gas reserves and over 80 percent of current coal reserves should not be used before the year 2050. If we are to prevent global temperatures from rising above 2 degrees Celsius in the near future, we ought to carry some measures to severely control the emissions from factories vehicles and even our dailylife cooking. However, it is a goal that seems to be impossible in our eyes. “Policy makers in different countries must realize that their attempt to pletely use the fossil fuels within their countries is wholly inpatible(矛盾的 ) with their hope to reach the 2degree goal,” Dr. Christophe Mc Glade at University College London’s Energy Institute said in a statement. “If they go ahead with developing their own resources,” he added, “they must be asked which reserves elsewhere should remain unburned in order for the carbon budget not to go beyond the limit.” It’s not surprising to see how tapping into these unused reserves would be attractive. Energyrelated industry is a big business all over the world. There are many coal reserves in China, Russia and the United States, along with over 260 thousand million barrels of oil reserves in the Middle East. Not to mention that oil is currently being developed in the Arctic. Companies spent over $670 billion last year in the expansion of fossil fuels, but according to the new model used in this latest study, developers may need to rethink their plans to develop these underground resources so as to make some contributions to control the world temperature from rising high in the future. “We’ve now got practical figures of the quantities and locations of fossil fuels that should remain unused in trying to keep within the 2degree temperature limit,” added Mc Glade. World leaders and policy makers should take the advice to heart, because a recent IPCC report warned that if immediate and great actions are not taken soon, climate change will cause irreversible(不可逆轉的 ) impacts on environments worldwide, leaving the world an unsafe place for us to live in. 46. According to Paragraph 1, our goal is to . A. discover more fossil fuels for the future generation B. slow down the climate change C. refuse to use reserves on the earth D. keep the temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius 47. The underlined word “emissions” in Paragraph 1 refers to . A. things that are sent out into the air B. products that are made from fossil fuels C. factors that cause the climate change D. changes that happen after temperature rise 48. According to what Mc Glade said in Paragraph 2, all countries should . A. make full use of their fossil fuels B. work together towards the 2degree goal C. find better ways to dig out the coal D. increase the global carbon budget 49. We can infer from Paragraph 3 that great efforts have been made in . A. digging out the oil in the Middle East B. getting people to rethink their fuel plans C. developing fossil fuels around the world D. developing energyrelated industry worldwide 50. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of temperature control? A. Confident. B. Negative. C. Satisfied. D. Unclear. D It’s hard to find Alice Munro in the media. Even after she won the 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature, the Canadian writer just appeared for a quick interview and then dropped out of sight. On Dec 29th, she still didn’t seek the spotlight when she was named one of the five Women of the Year by the Financial Times. In Mu
