瀑布景觀是從約塞米蒂瀑布徒步旅行的起點(diǎn)開(kāi)始的，沿著河流左側(cè)的路線。你可以不費(fèi)吹灰之力就走到

home.Wordspreadquicklyamongtheclusterofbrickhousesandneighboursbeganpayingregularvisitsto

38.”（他發(fā)明了一種臨時(shí)發(fā)電機(jī)，將電力送入家中。消息迅速在住磚房的人群中傳播開(kāi)來(lái)，鄰居開(kāi)始定

期上門給手機(jī)充電?，F(xiàn)年38歲的恩科西說(shuō)：“我開(kāi)始收到用電請(qǐng)求，并決定升級(jí)。"）可知，隨著消息

的傳播，恩科西收到了更多用電請(qǐng)求，所以決定把臨時(shí)發(fā)電機(jī)升級(jí)，由此可知，臨時(shí)發(fā)電機(jī)需要更新是

為了滿足更多人的用電需求。故選B項(xiàng)。

【5題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段關(guān)鍵句"'Beforewehadelectricityhere,weusedtousecandlestostudy,'said

驚呼道。）可知，通電之前，Kasangazi小學(xué)的學(xué)生只能用蠟燭學(xué)習(xí)，在恩科西的幫助下，擁有了電，他們

有了更好的學(xué)習(xí)條件，由此可知，Kasangazi小學(xué)的學(xué)生感激恩科西的幫助。故選C項(xiàng)。

【6題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段關(guān)鍵句"TheuserspaynofeeforthepowerbutgiveNkosisomemoneyfor

maintenance—slightlymorethan$1perhouseholdpermonth.''（用戶無(wú)需支付電費(fèi)，但會(huì)給恩科西一些錢

用于維護(hù)費(fèi)用一一每月每戶略高于1美元。）可知，恩科西為用戶供電不需要用戶支付電費(fèi)，由此可知，

恩科西是個(gè)慷慨的人；根據(jù)第五段關(guān)鍵句"Despitethechallenges,heisdeterminedtoexpandhismini-gridto

surroundingareas/'（盡管面臨挑戰(zhàn)，他仍決心將他的迷你電網(wǎng)擴(kuò)展到周邊地區(qū)。）可知，盡管面臨挑戰(zhàn)，

恩科西仍然決心將他的迷你電網(wǎng)擴(kuò)展到周邊地區(qū)，由此可知，恩科西是個(gè)意志堅(jiān)定的人，綜上所述，恩

科西是個(gè)慷慨的和意志堅(jiān)定的人。故選A項(xiàng)。

【7題詳解】

主旨大意題。通讀全文，結(jié)合第一段關(guān)鍵句"Butthatstartedtochangein2006,whenvillagerColrerdNkosi

中，發(fā)現(xiàn)沒(méi)有電他再也無(wú)法生活。）可知，文章主要介紹了一個(gè)名為恩科西的年輕人發(fā)明了臨時(shí)發(fā)電機(jī)，

幫助村民供電的故事，"TheContributionofaYoungMan"意為"一個(gè)年輕人的貢獻(xiàn)”，選項(xiàng)能夠概括文

【解析】

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要講述氣候變化及降雪量減少對(duì)造雪者們的機(jī)遇和挑戰(zhàn)。

【8題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段"Forthewinter-sportsindustry,suchshiftscouldhitprofitsharderthanaspringtime

avalanche（雪崩）.（對(duì)于冬季運(yùn)動(dòng)行業(yè)來(lái)說(shuō)，這種轉(zhuǎn)變可能比春季雪崩更能打擊利潤(rùn)）”可知，降雪量的改

變會(huì)降低冬季運(yùn)動(dòng)業(yè)的利潤(rùn)，導(dǎo)致雪上運(yùn)動(dòng)產(chǎn)業(yè)的衰落。故選D。

【9題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Sincethebeginningofthe1980sthedurationofthesnowseason,averagedoverthe

northernhemisphere,hasdeclinedbyfivedaysadecade,accordingtotheEuropeanEnvironmentAgency.（根據(jù)

歐洲環(huán)境署的數(shù)據(jù)，自20世紀(jì)80年代初以來(lái)，北半球平均降雪季節(jié)的持續(xù)時(shí)間，每十年減少五天）”可

知，1980年開(kāi)始，每10年減少5天。現(xiàn)在是2022年，故推知在某些地區(qū)，平均降雪季節(jié)的持續(xù)時(shí)間大

概縮短20天。故選D。

【10題詳解】

詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)最后一段”Thus,firmsspendaround5%ofrevenuesinresearchinghowtomakesnoweven

下制造雪）”可知，面對(duì)氣候變化及降雪量減少，造雪者和公司不能坐以待斃，他們將一半的收入用于研

究造雪。由此推知，劃線句子Nosnowmakercanstandstillwhenglobaltemperaturesarechanging.表示“造

雪者們積極應(yīng)對(duì)全球變暖”。故選C。

[11題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段“Thus,firmsspendaround5%ofrevenuesinresearchinghowtomakesnoweven
