Here are some of the world’s most unusual events
World Ice Golf Championship Greenland
For more than 10 years the World Ice Golf Championship has been seen as the most extreme golf competition in the world. In 1997, architect Rolf Henning-Jensen was asked to design the world’s first ice golf course among huge iceberg and heavy snows of Uummannaq, a small town on the west coast of Greenland-600 km north of the Arctic Circle. There golfers face extreme temperatures as their first task to deal with. Then it will take players time and patience to accommodate themselves to white “green” and orange balls to play with. Determined by weather conditions, this event is scheduled for March each year in Greenland.
Balloon Fiesta, the United States
Have you ever been taken to the sky in a hot air balloon The yearly Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta gives you the chance to enjoy a bird’s-eye view of the city and countryside. Since 1972, perfect October weather, blue skies and wind known as the “Albuquerque box” have worked together to allow balloonists to control their way thanks to the direction of blowing winds. This is the only place in the world to enjoy balloons flying in the blue skies each October.
El Colacho, Spain
The world’s most dangerous festival takes place every year in a small Spanish village Castillo de Murcia near Burgous. El Colacho means the devil’s jump and in fact this is the act of baby-jumping. Its purpose is to force a devil to leave the child’s body. Men dressed as devils jump over small babies to guard them against illness and bad spirits. Many consider the festival to be dangerous as “jumping devils” could hurt babies. But locals believe the action protects their babies from bad things and organize the jump in the streets, so people can watch or even join.
1. What does the schedule of World Ice Golf Championship depend on
A. Transport. B. Economy. C. Weather. D. Golfers’ time.
2. What can we learn about Balloon Fiesta

C. It is known as “Albuquerque box”. D. It is the only place to watch birds in balloons.

B
When I was a kid, my mother used to tell me Chinese folk stories before bedtime. My mother is an immigrant. She told me those stories so that I wouldn’t forget the culture that she had left. Even though I hadn’t ever experienced that culture at firsthand, she wanted me to remember it.
Of all her stories, my favourites were about Sun Wukong, the monkey king who had many superpowers. Eventually, though, I moved on to other kinds of heroes. When I was in the fifth grade, I bought my first American comic book. Afterwards, Superman, Spider-man and Captain America replaced Sun Wukong in my heart.
I became crazy about comic books. I loved them so much that I went on to work towards a career in comics. Today I am a professional graphic novelist. My most well-known book is American Born Chinese, published in 2006. Monkey King is one of my main characters, but the book isn’t direct adaptation of my mother’s stories. Instead, I invited Monkey King into my story so that I could talk about the uneasiness of growing up as an Asian American. The character I knew from my childhood expressed his emotions without reservation. I needed him to emote on my pages.
For research, I tracked down an English translation of Journey to the West, the centuries-old Chinese classi that first told the monkey king’s story. As I read it, I realized that American superheroes hadn’t replaced Sun Wukong in my heart after all -they were simply Western expressions of everything I loved about the monkey king. The monkey king’s story has lasted for centuries and travelled across continents and cultures. Journey to the West is the very definition of “timeless”.
My mother now has Alzheimer’s. She’s forgotten all of the stories she used to tell me, but I remember. In many ways, I’ve built my whole career on those moments before bedtime. With every comic book I create, I am trying to relive the wonder I felt when my mother told me the stories of Sun Wukong.
4. What did the author’s mother expect him to do
A. Earn a living by writing. B. Keep their cultural root.
C. Experience Chinese art first hand. D. Remember all the stories she told him.
5. What can we learn about the book American Born Chinese
A. It uses the character Sun Wukong as a symbol.
B. It reflects the growing pains of American children.
C. It is the best-seller among American born Chinese.
D. It encourages people to seek their roots back in Asia.
6. What did the author think of Journey to the West
A. It’s really a popular classic works. B. It’s more attractive than western comic books.
C. It’s easy to understand. D. It’s a book reflecting the real world.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. The author’s concern for his mother.
B. The approach to creating comic books.
C. The author’s memory of his childhood experience.
D. The influence of the stories of Sun Wukong on the author.
C
The world has faced a food crisis of unprecedented(前所未有的) proportions in 2022—the largest in modern history, as conflict, the COVID-19 pandemic, climate crisis and rising costs have combined to pose great risks for hungry people across the world. As many as 828 million people go to bed hungry every night. The number of those facing acute food insecurity has risen from 135 million to 345 million since 2019. A total of 49 million people in 49 countries are suffering hunger, according to figures from the United Nations’ World Food Programme.
“We are facing an unprecedented global food crisis and all signs suggest we have not yet seen the worst. For the last three years, hunger numbers have repeatedly hit new peaks,” WFP Executive Director David Beasley said. He warned that things can and will get worse unless there is a large-scale and coordinated(协调一致的) effort to address the causes of this crisis.
There are many reasons for prevailing high levels of food insecurity. These reasons include conflicts, climate changes and weather extremes, economic slowdowns and downturns. In addition, these drivers often do not act alone. For instance, conflicts are often accompanied by economic downturns, which affect livelihoods and the ability of people to earn resources, leading to increasing poverty levels and higher prevalence(流行) of food insecurity.
Unfortunately, the main reasons for high levels of food insecurity have not improved this year. People in the Horn of Africa are facing a fifth consecutive(连续的) failed rain season in parts of Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia, which will constrain their production, and is likely to push many people deeper into food insecurity.
Moreover, there is uncertainty about the weather. And climatic shock affecting any major producer or exporter will introduce additional uncertainty into production and consequently prices, which in turn impact the ability to purchase food, particularly of the most vulnerable people.
8. How does the author lead in the topic
A. By making a comparison. B. By sharing personal experience.
C. By giving opinions with evidence. D. By listing facts and accurate figures.
9. What can we know from David Beasley’s words
A. This global food crisis won’t last longer.
B. It’s certain that the global food crisis will get worse.
C. We need to work together to deal with the global food crisis.
D. There will be another new peak of hunger numbers in three years.
10. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Characters. B. Operators. C. Factors. D. Activities.
11. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Issue of Food Safety B. The Unprecedented Food Crisis
C. Conflicts Causing Food Shortage D. Efforts Put into the Study of Food Insecurity
D
Climate Acts Must Focus on Youth
Children and young people are bearing the burden of climate change. However, they are consistently overlooked in the design and content of climate policies and related measures. The rights of the youth need to be put in a central place in a country’s climate change plan as extreme weather events are threatening their lives and destroying the infrastructure critical to their well-being.
The scientific community has sounded the alarm that climate change is a global emergency, and the risks of deadly drought, frequent floods, heat waves, extreme weather, and poverty will significantly worsen.
Over half a billion children live in high flood zones and nearly 160 million live in areas of extremely high drought, said a report released in 2015 by the United Nations Children’s Fund, or UNICEF. Polluted air has a huge impact on children’s brain development. It is estimated about 2 billion children live in areas with air quality that is well above international pollution standards. Air pollution, lack of safe water, undernutrition is strongly linked to pneumonia, a leading cause of death among children, killing nearly 2, 400 children a day. The increase of diseases such as malaria and dengue fever have the greatest impacts on children, for example, 90 percent of the disease burden that is attributable to climate change is born by children under the age of five. The UNICEF report said all these challenges are exacerbated by climate change.
Through the intergovernmental cooperation on climate change, the UN has made it clear the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in raising. Actively responding to climate change is not only imperative, but also key to sustainable development for generations to come as children and young people are the future of mankind.
We are all glad to see children and young people are encouraged to play a key role in addressing climate-related risks by promoting environmentally sustainable lifestyles and setting an example for their communities.
12. What’s the author’s main purpose in the first paragraph
A. To give a summary. B. To give some evidences.
C. To express his emotions. D. To put forward his view.
13. How does climate change impact young children
A It harms children’s health. B. It has a huge impact on children’s education.
C. It reduces births of new babies. D. It leads to the change of children’s lifestyle.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the issue
A. Approving. B. Intolerable. C. Concerned. D. Indifferent.
15. Who are probably the intended readers of the text
A. Engineers. B. Environmentalists. C. Sports fans. D. Music lovers.

When I was a kid, my mother used to tell me Chinese folk stories before bedtime. My mother is an immigrant. She told me those stories so that I wouldn’t forget the culture that she had left. Even though I hadn’t ever experienced that culture at firsthand, she wanted me to remember it.
Of all her stories, my favourites were about Sun Wukong, the monkey king who had many superpowers. Eventually, though, I moved on to other kinds of heroes. When I was in the fifth grade, I bought my first American comic book. Afterwards, Superman, Spider-man and Captain America replaced Sun Wukong in my heart.
I became crazy about comic books. I loved them so much that I went on to work towards a career in comics. Today I am a professional graphic novelist. My most well-known book is American Born Chinese, published in 2006. Monkey King is one of my main characters, but the book isn’t direct adaptation of my mother’s stories. Instead, I invited Monkey King into my story so that I could talk about the uneasiness of growing up as an Asian American. The character I knew from my childhood expressed his emotions without reservation. I needed him to emote on my pages.
For research, I tracked down an English translation of Journey to the West, the centuries-old Chinese classi that first told the monkey king’s story. As I read it, I realized that American superheroes hadn’t replaced Sun Wukong in my heart after all -they were simply Western expressions of everything I loved about the monkey king. The monkey king’s story has lasted for centuries and travelled across continents and cultures. Journey to the West is the very definition of “timeless”.
My mother now has Alzheimer’s. She’s forgotten all of the stories she used to tell me, but I remember. In many ways, I’ve built my whole career on those moments before bedtime. With every comic book I create, I am trying to relive the wonder I felt when my mother told me the stories of Sun Wukong.
4. What did the author’s mother expect him to do
A. Earn a living by writing. B. Keep their cultural root.
C. Experience Chinese art first hand. D. Remember all the stories she told him.

The world has faced a food crisis of unprecedented(前所未有的) proportions in 2022—the largest in modern history, as conflict, the COVID-19 pandemic, climate crisis and rising costs have combined to pose great risks for hungry people across the world. As many as 828 million people go to bed hungry every night. The number of those facing acute food insecurity has risen from 135 million to 345 million since 2019. A total of 49 million people in 49 countries are suffering hunger, according to figures from the United Nations’ World Food Programme.
“We are facing an unprecedented global food crisis and all signs suggest we have not yet seen the worst. For the last three years, hunger numbers have repeatedly hit new peaks,” WFP Executive Director David Beasley said. He warned that things can and will get worse unless there is a large-scale and coordinated(协调一致的) effort to address the causes of this crisis.
There are many reasons for prevailing high levels of food insecurity. These reasons include conflicts, climate changes and weather extremes, economic slowdowns and downturns. In addition, these drivers often do not act alone. For instance, conflicts are often accompanied by economic downturns, which affect livelihoods and the ability of people to earn resources, leading to increasing poverty levels and higher prevalence(流行) of food insecurity.
Unfortunately, the main reasons for high levels of food insecurity have not improved this year. People in the Horn of Africa are facing a fifth consecutive(连续的) failed rain season in parts of Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia, which will constrain their production, and is likely to push many people deeper into food insecurity.
Moreover, there is uncertainty about the weather. And climatic shock affecting any major producer or exporter will introduce additional uncertainty into production and consequently prices, which in turn impact the ability to purchase food, particularly of the most vulnerable people.
8. How does the author lead in the topic
A. By making a comparison. B. By sharing personal experience.
C. By giving opinions with evidence. D. By listing facts and accurate figures.
9. What can we know from David Beasley’s words
A. This global food crisis won’t last longer.
B. It’s certain that the global food crisis will get worse.
C. We need to work together to deal with the global food crisis.
D. There will be another new peak of hunger numbers in three years.
10. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Characters. B. Operators. C. Factors. D. Activities.
11. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Issue of Food Safety B. The Unprecedented Food Crisis
C. Conflicts Causing Food Shortage D. Efforts Put into the Study of Food Insecurity
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了世界面临着前所未有的食物危机，并分析了其产生原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。第一段第一句中的“The world has faced a food crisis of unprecedented(前所未有的) proportions in 2022”点明本文主题，即2022年世界面临着前所未有的粮食危机比例。接着作者在下文中通过“As many as 828 million people”“from 135 million to 345 million”“A total of 49 million people in 49 countries”等数据和实例来支撑自己的观点。由此可推测出作者是通过罗列事实和精确的数据来引入主题的。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“He warned that things can and will get worse unless there is a large-scale and coordinated(协调一致的) effort to address the causes of this crisis.(他警告说，除非有大规模协调一致的努力来解决造成这场危机的原因，否则事情可以并且将会变得更糟。)”可知，如果不努力解决产生危机的原因，全球食物危机将会变得更为严重，由此可推测我们应该共同努力来应对全球食物危机。故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据前一句“These reasons include conflicts, climate changes and weather extremes, economic slowdowns and downturns.(这些原因包括冲突、气候变化和极端天气、经济放缓和衰退。)”可知，these drivers指代上文中的“这些原因”，由此可推测，driver意为“驱动因素”，与factor“因素”意思相近。故选C。
【11题详解】
标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了世界面临着前所未有的食物危机，并分析了其产生原因。由此可推测本文主要围绕食物危机展开，B项“前所未有的食物危机”符合题意。故选B。
D
Climate Acts Must Focus on Youth
Children and young people are bearing the burden of climate change. However, they are consistently overlooked in the design and content of climate policies and related measures. The rights of the youth need to be put in a central place in a country’s climate change plan as extreme weather events are threatening their lives and destroying the infrastructure critical to their well-being.
The scientific community has sounded the alarm that climate change is a global emergency, and the risks of deadly drought, frequent floods, heat waves, extreme weather, and poverty will significantly worsen.
Over half a billion children live in high flood zones and nearly 160 million live in areas of extremely high drought, said a report released in 2015 by the United Nations Children’s Fund, or UNICEF. Polluted air has a huge impact on children’s brain development. It is estimated about 2 billion children live in areas with air quality that is well above international pollution standards. Air pollution, lack of safe water, undernutrition is strongly linked to pneumonia, a leading cause of death among children, killing nearly 2, 400 children a day. The increase of diseases such as malaria and dengue fever have the greatest impacts on children, for example, 90 percent of the disease burden that is attributable to climate change is born by children under the age of five. The UNICEF report said all these challenges are exacerbated by climate change.
Through the intergovernmental cooperation on climate change, the UN has made it clear the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in raising. Actively responding to climate change is not only imperative, but also key to sustainable development for generations to come as children and young people are the future of mankind.
We are all glad to see children and young people are encouraged to play a key role in addressing climate-related risks by promoting environmentally sustainable lifestyles and setting an example for their communities.
12. What’s the author’s main purpose in the first paragraph
A. To give a summary. B. To give some evidences.
C. To express his emotions. D. To put forward his view.
13. How does climate change impact young children
A. It harms children’s health. B. It has a huge impact on children’s education.
C. It reduces births of new babies. D. It leads to the change of children’s lifestyle.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the issue
A. Approving. B. Intolerable. C. Concerned. D. Indifferent.
15. Who are probably the intended readers of the text
A. Engineers. B. Environmentalists. C. Sports fans. D. Music lovers.

The UNICEF report said all these challenges are exacerbated by climate change.(污染的空气对儿童的大脑发育有巨大的影响。据估计，约有20亿儿童生活在空气质量远远高于国际污染标准的地区。空气污染、缺乏安全饮用水、营养不良与肺炎密切相关，肺炎是儿童死亡的主要原因，每天造成近2400名儿童死亡。疟疾和登革热等疾病的增加对儿童的影响最大，例如，90%可归因于气候变化的疾病负担是由5岁以下儿童出生的。联合国儿童基金会的报告称，气候变化加剧了所有这些挑战)”可知，气候变化危害儿童健康。故选A。
