Flags with all the stars can get free rides on the Parx Liberty Carousel at Franklin Square．‎ ‎21．Who would most probably go to Spruce‎ Street Harbor ‎Park?‎ A．People who are fond of colorful lights．‎ B．People who want to have a relaxing day．‎ C．People who have a preference for skating．‎ D．People who are interested in water activities．‎ ‎22．Which place would fans of Big Bird be interested in?‎ A．Sesame Place． B．Blue Cross RiverRink．‎ C．The Parx Liberty Carousel． D．Spruce Street Harbor Park．‎ ‎23．What can we know about Philadelphia Storytelling Benches?‎ A．It can be visited all year round． B．It has educational significance．‎ C．It is available at a small charge． D．It is aimed at serving the public．‎ B The ocean is filled with eight million tons of rubbish—enough to fill five carrier bags for every foot of coastline on the planet. But a new invention could deal with this problem, one port at a time.‎ A pair of surfers from Perth, Australia, has invented a “floating bin” that automatically draws rubbish floating on the water into it like a vacuum (真空) cleaner. While the invention may do little to battle against five giant “garbage islands” that flow around the world’s major ocean gyres (环流), it could stop waste from leaving harbours and marinas, for example. Peter Ceglinski and Andrew Turton said their device could spell the end of polluted seas.‎ The concept is simple: A bucket connects to a water pump, drawing in any floating trash inside a removable net bag. There is also an optional oil-water separator system inside the pump. It can remove oil from the seawater before spitting it back into the ocean — pollution-free — through the other side of the pump.‎ The water filtration (过滤) system is much like what you’d find in a fish lank, but it has the potential to clean up an entire ocean. The seabin can run 24/7, according lo its website. And, amazingly, Peter and Andrew say they have never caught a fish or sea animal in their pumps in four years of testing.‎ The Seabin Project aims to improve on the traditional and sometimes expensive — harbor cleaning methods of having a person physically remove trash from the water or sending boats equipped with nets to collect it. While it’s not as extensive as 21-year-old Boyan Slat’s plan to clean the entire Pacific Ocean in 10 years, starting in 2020, the seabin’s creators said their device is something that harbors can start using to clean our oceans now.‎ They’re starting “close to the source of the problem in a controlled environment, “Seabin’s website states. “It’s a big mission, but it can be done. In fact, we’re doing it right now.”‎ ‎24. What led to the two surfers’ invention?‎ A. Poor equipment of boats. B. Great interest in surfing.‎ C. Disturbing ocean rubbish D. Lack of harbor cleaning methods.‎ ‎25. What docs the underlined word “spell” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. Indicate B. Change. C. Meet. D. Reach.‎ ‎26. What is a seabin according to the text?‎ A. A fish tank. B. A vacuum cleaner.‎ C. A water filtration system. D. A floating rubbish collector.‎ ‎27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. The seabin is applied worldwide.‎ B. It is challenging for the seabin to clean polluted seas.‎ C. The seabin is far from satisfactory.‎ D. It is possible for the seabin to control the environment.‎ C ‎“City Cycling USA: Los Angeles,” a pocket-sized tour guide to seeing Los Angeles on two wheels, is seemingly for visitors; Actually, for locals, its series of bike-friendly paths and itineraries (行程) are a road-map to becoming tourists in their own city again.‎ ‎“City Cycling” explores five neighborhoods in the Westside and Eastside and generally north of the 10 and south of the 101. Itineraries fit the period of a day, beginning with spots for coffee, walking along museums and shops, and finishing off with recommendations of where to buy a well-deserved drink. Published by Thames and Hudson in association with London cycling brand Rapha Racing, the guidebook is among the first U.S.‎ sections — alongside New York, Chicago and San Francisco — in a series launched in 2013 with biking tours of eight European cities.‎ Greatest hits such as the Bradbury Building and Echo Park ‎Lake are included in the neighborhood tours, with plenty of fashionable places for where to eat — Eggslut, Pine & Crane and Gjusta. The guide is a reminder of how crowdedly packed each enclave (飞地) of L.A. is with unusual destinations, the large number of places to explore within a few square mile radius (半径), easily done once we step out of the car.‎ Los Angeles‎’ famously pleasant weather makes it an ideal city for exploring by bike; neighborhoods have different styles. While the car still plays an important role, cycling culture, like CicLAvia, already has full support, and is prepared to grow with the implementation (实施) of Mobility Plan 2035, which aims to make the city more bike friendly. “City Cycling USA: Los Angeles” is a start.‎ ‎28. Who is City Cycling USA: Los Angeles really intended for?‎ A. Visitors on bikes. B. Locals on bikes. ‎ C. Tourist on bikes D. Bicyclists ‎29. Where does each itinerary begin and end?‎ A. Where there is a café. B. Where drink can be bought easily.‎ C. Where it is convenient for tourists on bikes. D. Where there are museums and shops.‎ ‎30. What are Eggslut, Pine & Crane and Gjusta used for?‎ A. Places where you can eat.‎ B. Destinations you can reach within a day.‎ C. Guides to a enclave of L.A.‎ crowded with unusual destinations.‎ D. Places where you can see the Bradbury Building and Echo‎ Park ‎Lake.‎ ‎31.. Why is Los Angeles fit to explore by bike? ‎ A. Because it is bike friendly. B. Because of cycling culture.‎ C. Because of Mobility Plan 2035. D. Because of its pleasant weather.‎ D Forests are always losers at the Olympics, and that’s unlikely to change anytime soon.‎ For the winter games in PyeongChang, South Korea, virgin forest was destroyed on Mount‎ ‎Gariwang to accommodate ski runs. For the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, a ski run is set to wipe out part of the Songshan National Nature Reserve And let’s not forget the 240 acres of Atlantic Forest that were leveled for the 2016 games in Rio de Janeiro to make way for a golf course.‎ For the upcoming Tokyo games, environmental and human rights advocates have been raising alarms about the use of tropical wood to build the New National Stadium. Activists have fought against such environmental destruction. The damage is often permanent, threatens endangered plants and animals and, in some cases, causes conflicts with native people But frequently the country’s organizing committee, and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) have found ways to make it reasonable—despite a paragraph in the Olympic Charter that states that the IOC’s role is to “encourage and support a responsible concern for environmental issues.”‎ As it stands now. the IOC has little authority over a city’s local organizing committee, which finally plans the event, Chappelet, professor of public management at the University‎ of ‎Lausanne, told Earther. “Even if the IOC is dissatisfied with the way host cities have prepared for the games, they have no built-in systems to supervise (监督) them so that they strictly follow the Olympic Charter. The only thing they can do if they’re not happy is to withdraw the right to organize the game. But the IOC could include more enforcement (执行) systems into the contract (合同) they make with the host city, he added. That contract must be signed and obeyed by everyone. Those who break it could be fined.‎ Boykoff, the author of several books on the Olympics, suggested a similar solution. “The IOC could insist that host cities prioritize their ecological promises, but instead they look the other way, time and time again,” he said.‎ ‎32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?‎ A. Popularity of the Olympics. B. Different needs of the Olympics C. Importance of protecting forests. D. Problems caused by the Olympics.‎ ‎33. What is the IOC expected to do according to the Olympic Charter?‎ A. Lead the fight against destruction.‎ B. Withdraw the rights of host cities.‎ C. Ban the destruction of the environment.‎ D. Promote a responsible concern for the environment.‎ ‎34. What does the underlined word “they” in the text refer to?‎ A. The IOC. B. Built-in systems. C. Host cities. D. The games.‎ ‎35 What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. IOC Stresses Its Active Role B. Prized Forests Lost Big C. Perfect Solutions are Found D. Conflicts Arise at the Olympics 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How the Elderly Are Treated Around the World How cultures view and treat their elderly is closely linked to their most prized values and qualities.36. ________‎ In the US and UK, Protestantism (新教) is at play.

As their health becomes worse, the elderly in these cultures often move to old people’s homes and nursing homes.‎ In France, parents are protected by law.

France did, however, pass a similar law in 2004. 38.___________ One was a group of official statistics showing France had the highest rate of pensioner suicides in Europe, and the other was the aftermath of a heat wave that killed 15,000 people, most of whom were elderly and had been dead for weeks before they were found.‎ ‎39.__________ Native American cultures traditionally accept death as a fact of life. In many Native American areas, elders are respected for their wisdom and life experiences. Within Native American families, it’s common for the elders to be expected to pass down their learning to younger members of the family.‎ The way to care for Chinese elders is changing. Chinese families traditionally view respect for one’s elders as the highest virtue, according to the Confucian tradition. Adult children are generally expected to care for their parents in their old age. 40.___________ Nursing homes are beginning to become a more socially acceptable option for elderly care.‎ A. However, this tradition is beginning to break down due to rising lifetime and an aging population.‎ B. In the African-American area, death is seen as an opportunity to celebrate life.‎ C.
