Passage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passageFor most of us, having drinking water is a privilege we often take for granted. Yet in several regions of Africa, there is serious shortage of freshwater. Researchers have been developing methods to collect moisture from fog for daily water use as if it were rainwater. The difference is that fog is simply more common than rain. Fog forms when the land releases heat at night. As the ground cools down, it causes water molecules in the air to condense.Fog collection works by utilizing mesh (网状物)hung in the air. The mesh is spread between two poles facing the general direction of the wind. The wind naturally pushes the fog toward the mesh, where water accumulates. As the water drops get bigger, they flow down to a pipe into a tank. This method can produce around 20 gallons (加仑)of water per mesh, which is enough for a family's daily needs. The entire system is also low-maintenance without the need for electricity.The steady supply of water has allowed communities to develop in many other ways. Locals no longer fall victim to water anxiety or the constant worry of finding water. Women can spend more time taking care of their children instead of walking long distances to collect water. The improved facilities have also opened opportunities for men to work consistent jobs.While this solution has helped many communities globally, it presents future questions. For one, such systems work best in rural regions. They don't work in cities for lack of space. Secondly, atmospheric water only makes up 0.004% of the freshwater found on the planet. Therefore, this system can only help small communities. Furthermore, climate change also affects the amount of fog in a region's climate, so there may also be a limit to how long this system can work. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. More Victims to Water ShortageB. The Importance of FreshwaterC. Harvesting Water from AirD. An Easy Way to Collect Rainwater

  • D. An Easy Way to Collect Rainwater

题目解答

答案

C. Harvesting Water from Air

解析

步骤 1:理解文章内容
文章主要讲述了在非洲某些地区,由于淡水短缺,研究人员开发了一种从雾中收集水分的方法,以供日常使用。这种方法利用网状物收集雾中的水分,然后通过管道流入储水罐,为家庭提供足够的日常用水。这种方法不仅低维护,而且不需要电力。此外,文章还提到这种方法对社区的发展有积极影响,但也存在一些限制,如只适用于农村地区,不适用于城市,以及受气候变化的影响等。

步骤 2:分析选项
A. More Victims to Water Shortage(更多的水短缺受害者):文章虽然提到了水短缺的问题,但主要讨论的是解决方法,而不是受害者。
B. The Importance of Freshwater(淡水的重要性):文章提到了淡水的重要性,但主要讨论的是从雾中收集水分的方法。
C. Harvesting Water from Air(从空气中收集水):这个选项准确地概括了文章的主要内容,即从雾中收集水分的方法。
D. An Easy Way to Collect Rainwater(一种收集雨水的简单方法):文章讨论的是从雾中收集水分,而不是收集雨水。

步骤 3:选择最佳标题
根据文章内容和选项分析,最佳标题应为C选项,因为它准确地概括了文章的主要内容。

  • The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

  • question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.
