11．The forest of today will not be the forests of tomorrow.Rising temperatures，trees being cut down，development and climate-change-caused disasters are changing the very makeup of the Earth's forests，new research published in Science finds.
Older，bigger trees are being lost at an alarming rate，making the planet's forests shorter and younger.The change is being driven at different rates by different causes in different places，the study's authors say，but the consequences will be global.
Old growth forests absorb and store massive amounts of climate-warming CO2.They provide habitats for rare and endangered species and promote rich biodiversity.Researchers found that the world lost roughly one-third of its old growth forests between 1900 and 2015.In North America and Europe，they found that tree mortality（死亡率） has doubled in the past 40 years.
"Warming temperatures，wildfires，logging and insect outbreaks were among the many causes of the decline，" says Nate McDowell，the study's lead author. "What's perhaps more concerning is that the trajectory（发展轨迹） of all these disturbances is generally increasing over time and is expected to continue increasing in the future." he says.
McDowell's focus is on how trees are affected by rising temperatures，arguably the biggest driver of forest change.To get a broader understanding of how forests are changing globally，he brought in more than 20 other researchers in different fields.Together，they examined more than 160 previous studies about tree mortality and its global causes，applying current satellite data and modeling to create a look at the Earth's changing forests to date.
"It's not a shock，but it's very sad，" says Kristina，an ecologist and leader of the ForestGEO Ecosystems &Climate Program who helped with the research. "We as a human society are hitting these forests so rapidly with so many different changes that they can't keep up." she says.
（1）What can we know from the figures in the paragraph 3？
A．More trees should be planted in no time.
B．We are losing old growth forests quickly.
C．Forests are important habitats for wildlife.
D．Different trees can absorb CO2 differently.
（2）What can we say about McDowell's research？
A．Timely and long-standing.
B．All-sided and careful.
C．Time-limited and regional.
D．Traditional and extensive.
（3）What's Kristina's attitude towards the findings of the research？
A．Worried.
B．Optimistic.
C．Supportive.
D．Indifferent.
（4）What's the writer's purpose of writing the passage？
A．To call on people to plant more trees.
B．To discuss the influence of climate change.
C．To warn against the loss of old growth forests.
D．To compare forests of today with those of the future.组卷：0引用：1难度：0.6 -
12． "What if I told you that I murdered Basil？"
"You couldn't murder anyone，Dorian.He probably fell into the Seine from a bus.By the way，where's that wonderful portrait he did of you？Oh!I remember now.You told me years ago that you sent it to Selby Manor and that it got lost or stolen on the way.What a pity!I wanted to buy it.I wish I had now." Lord Henry said.
"I never really liked it，" said Dorian.
"How have you kept your youth，Dorian？You must have some secret.I'm only ten years older than you are，and I'm wrinkled and old.Please，tell me your secret.To get back my youth，I'd do anything in the world，except take exercise，get up early，or be respectable."
When Dorian arrived home that night，he sent his servant to bed，and sat down on the sofa in the library.Then he began to think about his life.
"I've been an evil influence on my friends，and I've ruined the lives of many good young people，" he thought， "Ah!Why did I pray for the portrait to grow old，and for me to stay young？I worshiped beauty and eternal youth，but they ruined me.It's better not to think of the past.Nothing can change that.I must think of the future.James Vane is dead.Alan Campbell is dead，too.He shot himself one night in his laboratory."
"I'm safe now，" he continued. "Basil painted the portrait that ruined my life.I can't forgive him for that.Everything is the portrait's fault."
He began to wonder about the portrait. "If I'm good，maybe the portrait will become beautiful again，" he thought. "I'll go and look."
He took the lamp from the table and went upstairs.As he unlocked the door，he smiled. "Yes，I'll be good，" he thought， "I won't be frightened of this portrait any more."
He went upstairs to the room and locked the door.Then he pulled the purple cloth off the portrait.He gave a cry of pain.The portrait was more horrible.His face looked more evil.There was new blood on the hand and on the feet.
Dorian trembled with fear.Dorian looked round the room and saw the knife that stabbed Basil Hallward.It was bright and shining.
"This knife killed the artist，and now it will kill the artist's work，" he thought.
He grabbed the knife，and then he stabbed the portrait with it.
（1）What do we know about Lord Henry from the passage？
A．He doubted slightly whether Dorian murdered Basil.
B．He would do whatever he could to get back his youth.
C．The portrait he wanted to buy was stolen by Selby Manor.
D．The truth about how Dorian kept his youth was hidden from him.
（2）What can we infer from the passage？
A．Dorian admitted he was badly affected by his friends.
B．Alan Campbell shot himself one night in his laboratory.
C．Dorian blamed his sufferings on the portrait and Basil.
D．Dorian wanted to kill himself so that the portrait could become normal.
（3）What does the underlined word "worshiped" mean in paragraph 6？
A．Admired.
B．Deserved.
C．Maintained.
D．Ignored.
（4）Why did Dorian stab the portrait at the end of the story？
A．Because the portrait aroused too much curiosity of his friends.
B．Because the portrait reflecting his soul made him suffer great pain.
C．Because he was jealous of the portrait which would never grow old.
D．Because he thought the portrait would take his youth and beauty away.组卷：45引用：5难度：0.5 -
13．It's an attractive idea：by playing online problem-solving，matching and other games for a few minutes a day，people can improve such mental abilities as reasoning，verbal （语言的） skills and memory.But whether these games deliver on those promises is up for debate.
This year，in perhaps the biggest real-world test of these programs，neuroscientists （神 经学家） at Canada's Western University gathered 8，563 volunteers globally through Cambridge Brain Sciences，a Toronto-based company that provides assessments to measure healthy brain function.Participants filled out anonline question form about their training habits，opinions about training benefits and which，if any，program they used.Some 1，009 participants reported using brain training programs for about eight months，onaverage，though the length of time ranged from two weeks to more than five years.
Next，the volunteers completed 12 mental tests about memory，reasoning and verbal skills.When researchers looked at the results，they saw that brain trainees on average had no mental edge over the other group in memory，verbal skills and reasoning.Even among those who had used training programs for at least 18 months，brain training didn't boost thinking abilities above the level of people who didn't use the programs.
"No matter how we dealt with the data，we were unable to find any evidence that brain training was associated with mental abilities，" says a researcher.That held true whether the team analyzed participants by age，program used，education or economic situation - all were similar to the group who didn't use the programs.However，brain training may be beneficial when it is connected with real problems in life，researcherssay.The real world may be the best brain trainer.They suggest that we practice those skills in different real-life situations. "That's a much better use of one's time than sitting at a computer and doing little tasks."
（1）How were the 1，009 test participants different from the others？
A．They completed more mental tests.
B．They showed better mental abilities.
C．They filled an online question form.
D．They had brain training experiences.
（2）Which of the following best replaces the underlined word "edge" in paragraph 3？
A．Advantage.
B．Power.
C．Illness.
D．Control.
（3）What do the researchers suggest about brain training？
A．It should provide scientific data.
B．It should promote online programs.
C．It should settle problems in life.
D．It should benefit more researchers.
（4）Which of the following is the best title of the text？
A．Debate Raised after Research？
B．Online Games Boost Brainpower？
C．Biggest Real-world Test Ever？
D．New Method for Brain Training？组卷：10引用：6难度：0.3 -

15．When you read articles or watch TV，you may meet with the words，"citizen science（公众科学）"，every now and then.（1）
It's scientific research done，in whole or in part，by non-professional （非专业的）scientists in public.They can include teachers，students，etc.jye.ai act as volunteers.
（2）For researchers，citizen science can greatly expand（扩 大 ）the area of a study without making it costly.For example，a bird survey involving volunteers can cover North America in a few weeks and cost a small amount of money.However，paying scientists to perform the same survey would be very expensive，and it would make the study harder.
For volunteers，citizen science can increase their knowledge of science.Besides，it can be fun and sometimes quite interesting.Many volunteers join in citizen science because they are interested in the environment.（3）
As to where citizen science takes place，it depends on different research programs.Some will require people to go to a challenging place in the wild.（4）Many universities，for example，have certain programs which invite local gardeners to study their plants and offer scientists information on their plants from their gardens.
If you want to take part in a citizen science project，you should start by being clear about what topic you like.（5）If they agree with your request，you can offer your help as a citizen scientist.
A.This term is also known as "crowd science".
B.Some people may hate taking part in citizen science.
C.Making these people do research has great advantages.

We walked through the forest along a path by a small river．Breathing the fresh air，we three talked and laughed all the way．
"Hey!What are you guys doing？" Someone suddenly shouted from behind．Mark and Cody's eyes immediately widened，and without a word they started running．I had no choice but to follow them，getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud．We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down．I stopped to catch my breath and asked． "Who was that？"
Mark replied， "The most annoying neighbor ever．If he caught up with us，there's no telling what could happen．He is always making fun of us．I dislike him．" We kept walking on for a few more minutes．Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes． "Wow!Amazing!"
