二、阅读理解（共4题，共 20分）

26、At some point in the near future, self-driving cars may become common on the roads. Self-driving cars have already been test-driven, but they are not yet available for the public.

Self-driving cars have already been test-driven thousands of miles. 【1】 Passengers could do things such as eat or read on the way. Best of all, the self-driving cars that were tested experienced fewer accidents than average human drivers.

【2】There are issues that must be solved before self-driving cars can be made available to the public. One problem is that a car cannot predict problems far down the road like a driver can. 【3】 For example, a driver can see that a child is riding her skateboard directly into the road 0. 3 km away and start to slow down. The self-driving car can react only once the child is in its immediate path.

【4】 They may become confused by fog, heavy rain, or road spray from another vehicle's wheels. They don't predict or “feel" that the roads have become icy like an experienced driver would. For instance, when a road is icy, a human driver would step on the brakes（刹车）more gently than when the roads areclean and dry.

Another issue is that self-driving cars have maps programmed into their memory, but these maps aren't always updated and accurate. 【5】 Because of this, there is no promise that a self-driving car can get a passenger to his or her destination. Perhaps one day, self-driving cars will be everywhere. However, we are not ready for that just yet.

A．Self-driving cars has disadvantages.

B．These cars had only passengers, no drivers.

C．The safety problems have almost been addressed.

D．New roads are built, and old roads are closed down.

E．So why aren't self-driving cars common on roads today?

F．The self-driving cars can react to things only once they actually occur.

G．Self-driving vehicles also have difficulty adjusting to weather conditions.

27、 Natural disasters take many different forms and can happen without warning. Earthquakes, floods, volcanoes, droughts, typhoons, and hurricanes are all natural disasters.

The earthquake of 26 December 2004 resulted in one of the worst natural disasters in living memory. It was a massive underwater quake and occurred in the Indian Ocean. This caused a huge tsunami （海啸）to cross the Indian Ocean. It destroyed coastlines and communities and brought death and destruction to many people. The survivors needed fresh water, food and shelter as well as medical help. People from all over the world gave money.

The surface of the Earth has not always looked as it does today; it is moving continuously （although very slowly） and has done so for billions of years. This is one cause of earthquakes,when one section of the Earth crashes with another. Scientists can predict where this might happen and the area between plates is called a fault line. However, earthquakes do not always happen on Fault lines, which is why they are so dangerous and unpredictable.

All the disasters are very dangerous and continue to kill thousands of people each year, but they are nowhere near the most dangerous disaster to ever happen on earth. One type of event in the earth's history has regularly killed millions of beings: asteroid （小行星）impacts （撞击）. About once every million years the Earth is hit by a piece of rock and ice from space large enough to cause massive destruction （including earthquakes, volcanoes and ice ages） and sometimes to kill entire species. Sixty-five million years ago more than half the earth's species were killed by such a disaster, including all the dinosaurs（恐龙）. Disasters on the Earth may seem dangerous, but the biggest threat to humans is likely to come from space.

【1】What did the world do when the tsunami occurred in the Indian Ocean?

A.They gave away money to the beggars.

B.They sponsored to help the people survive.

C.They donated their possessions to the survivors.

D.They helped rebuild the coastlines and communities.

【2】What can scientists predict about earthquakes?

A.The possible time. B.The possible climate.

C.The possible place. D.The possible frequence.

【3】Which is the best heading that matches Paragraph 3?

A.What do earthquakes destroy? B.Why do earthquakes happen?

C.How can we prevent earthquakes? D.Which is the most dangerous natural disaster?

【4】Where does the author think the most dangerous natural disaster will come from?

A.Space. B.Earth. C.Humans. D.Wild animals.

28、Eradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution for two of our county’s longstanding problems: garbage and poverty. It’s called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather than throw your empty Chip bags in the trash, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless.

Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lay’s, and other favorites at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in soapy hot water, they slice then open, lay them fat, and iron them together.

It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “waterproof, lightweight, and easy to carry around,” Oleita told the Detroil News.

Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 80,000 chip bags and, as of last December, created 110 sleeping bags.

Sure, it would be simpler to raise the money to buy new seeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita — whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a better life — and her fellow volunteers. “We are committed to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says.

And, of course, there’s the symbolism of salvaging bags that would otherwise land in the trash and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita told hourdetroit com: “I think it’s time to show connections between all of these issues.”

【1】What is the purpose of the Chip Bag Project?

A．To make donations for the homeless.

B．To deal with garbage and sleeping bags.

C．To stop pollution caused by snack lovers.

D．To protect the environment and reduce poverty.

【2】How did Oleita get materials for sleeping bags?

A．By turning to chip eaters.

B．By producing chip bags.

C．By purchasing snacks.

D．By cooperating with the poor.

【3】Which of the flowing can best explain the underlined word “salvaging” in the last paragraph?

A．Sewing.

B．Designing.

C．Emptying.

D．Recycling.

【4】Which of he following best describes Eradajere Oleita?

A．Devoted and creative.

B．Determined and honest.

C．Ambitious and humorous.

D．Caring and independent.

29、A drug used to treat severe bleeding could save thousands of lives for mothers giving birth. A global trial of the drug found it reduced the risk of bleeding deaths during childbirth by nearly one-third. The study involved 20,000 women in 21 countries, mainly in Africa and Asia. The trial was carried out by London’s School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The drug is called tranexamic acid(氨甲环酸）. It is low-cost and researchers said it does not cause serious side effects for mothers or babies.

The drug is used to treat mothers for severe bleeding during childbirth, also known as postpartum hemorrhage (产后出血).It is the leading cause of mother’s death worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.

Haleema Shakur is the project director of the trial. She says despite medical advances in many countries, severe bleeding after childbirth remains a big problem in some parts of the world. “It's one of the biggest killers of mothers. In Africa and Asia. about 10 percent of women will end up with severe bleeding. " The drug works by stopping blood clots（血凝块） from breaking down after a mother gives birth. The treatment can prevent the need for doctors to perform surgery to find the source of bleeding.

Shakur said the best results were reported when the drug was given to women as soon as possible after childbirth, “The earlier you give it- so within the first three hours of giving birth—the better the effect is. ”

The next step will be to get the drug where it is needed provide training for doctors and nurses on how to use it. During the trial, women were given the drug in a hospital. But researchers are looking for easier ways to administer the drug so it can be more widely used in small clinics and rural areas.

【1】What is the reachers’ next plan?

A．To know how much the drug is.

B．To get permission to use the drug.

C．To let more people know the drug.

D．To make medical staff know how to use the drug.

【2】What can we learn from the text?

A．The more mothers use the drug, the better its effect is.

B．African and Asian countries made great progress in medicine.

C．Postpartum hemorrhage is the leading cause of women’s death.

D．There is a long way to go before the drug can be used more widely.

【3】What may be the best title for the text?

A．Care for the Health of Mothers

B．How Can We Use Tranexamic Acid Well?

C．Childbirth Drug Greatly Reduces Bleeding Deaths

D．What's the Biggest Killer of Mothers?

40、阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

Picture this: After saving up your money, you finally have enough to buy that toy, game, or piece of clothing you've been dreaming of. You go to the store and find the item. But at the counter, you see a sign: "Hello! We've gone cashless(不用现金)."

Situations like this may become common if more stores and restaurants stop accepting cash as a payment. Instead, customers must pay with a credit card, or by smartphone app. Many business owners believe that getting rid of cash has benefited the way their business run. Staff members don't have to worry about having enough money to make change or about delivering bills and coins to the bank.

But a growing number of people think that cashless stores are unfair. According to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, more than 8 million households in the US don't have bank accounts. Also, many people, including kids, don't meet the requirements for a credit card. "A cashless economy(经济)is not an inclusive(包容广阔的)economy," Tazra Mitchell told National Public Radio. She's a policy director at the DC Fiscal Policy Institute. In her opinion, cashless stores are "essentially discriminating (歧视)against people". Plus, people who do have credit cards might prefer paying with cash. "Cash is still very popular with consumers," Nick Bourke said. He's a director at the Pew Charitable Trusts' consumer finance project. "It's used by almost eight in ten adults in the US every month. That's more than any other payment type."

Lawmakers in several places have taken steps to ban cashless stores. A handful of major cities including New York City and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have already passed laws to solve the issue. In San Francisco, California, a law banning cashless stores was passed in May. It says most stores in the city must allow customers to pay with cash. Cerek REmski helped write the San Francisco law. He works for the city. "It's really about equity(公平)," Remski said. "It's about understanding that not everyone has equal access to things."
