B If you were to throw, say, a banana peel out of your car while driving along the motorway, that would be a completely harmless action, due to the fact that its part of a fruit right? Actually, no. A banana peel can take up to two years to be naturally processed, and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, thats a whole lot of discarded banana peels. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生 物降解) term to that of a banana peel, but tin cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles. Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will serve to damage the environment and its animals for longer, we cant merely measure the severity of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short length of biodegrading time, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is discarded in the UK every day. Its not a cheap habit either: to keep our streets clean annually costs UK taxpayers 500 million, and when you include our green spaces, that goes up to 1 billion. So, its not surprising that if caught fly-tipping you could face a 20,000 fine or even jail time and, if you disposed of something dangerous, the court could give you five years to serve. Regardless of how severe these punishments might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were found guilty out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules. 24. What does the underlined word “discarded” in para1 mean? A. Harmless. B. Processed. C. Thrown. D. Long-lasting. 25. Which of the following has the longest biodegrading term? A. Glass bottles. B. Tin cans. C. Cigarette butts. D. Banana peels. 26. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The severity of rubbish can be measured by its lifetime. B. Quite a few people were found guilty of illegally littering. C. Every year UK taxpayers spend 500 million keeping streets free of dirt. D. Cigarette-related litter and peels can be ignored for their fairly short lifetime. 27. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To inform readers of different biodegrading terms. B. To call for people not to litter illegally. C. To encourage people to use fewer plastic bags. D. To stress the importance of good behavior. C We often hear that 60 is the new 50. Just check out images of your grandparents or great-grandparents and notice their stooped (驼背的) bodies, their wrinkled faces when they were barely pushing 60. What a contrast with energetic, gym-going sexagenarians (60几岁的人) of today! A research, overseen by gerontologist Taina Rantanen, compared adults born in 1910 and 1914 with those born roughly 30 years later. Both birth groups were examined in person at age 60 and again at 70 with the same set of six physical tests and five measures of cognition. According to the research, the later-born group could walk faster, had a stronger hand grasp and could use more force with their lower legs. On cognitive tests, the later-born group had better verbal fluency, and scored higher on a test matching numbers to symbols. But not everything changed across the generations: measures of lung function were surprisingly not changing, and there was no improvement in the short-term-memory task of recalling a series of digits. There are many reasons why people are aging better, including improved medical care and a drop in smoking, but the key factor shown in the study of physical function was that the later-born adults were more physically active and had bigger bodies, which suggests better nutrition. For brain function, the key seems to be more years of education. Education is a powerful influence on aging and health, says Luigi Ferrucci, scientific director of the U.S. National Institute on Aging: “With more education, you are probably going to have a larger income, which means you are more likely to go to the doctor, and have good nutrition.” He also points out that the average life span is seven years shorter in a poor state such as Mississippi than in a wealthier one such as California. “Here we still have lots of people who cannot take the drugs they need because they cannot pay for them,” he says. In short, 60 may be the new 50 for many of us but not for all. 28. How does the writer begin the passage? A. By imagining a scene. B. By making a comparison. 2021 届高三湖北十一校第二次联考 英语试题 第 5 页（共 8 页） 2021 届高三湖北十一校第二次联考 英语试题 第 6 页（共 8 页） C. By raising a question. D. By presenting an image. 29. Which of the following is true about the research? A. Everything didnt change across the generations. B. The later-born group could hardly grasp things more tightly. C. The later-born group did worse in matching numbers to symbols. D. There was a little improvement in short-term memory in both groups. 30. According to the research, what contributes most to physically aging better? A. Improved medical care. B. Education. C. Better nutrition. D. Energetic images. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Many reasons contribute to peoples better physical function. B. Todays energetic sexagenarians have much better images. C. Education is the key to peoples aging better. D. People today are aging better in many ways. D The company SpaceX has already launched hundreds of its Star-link satellites, with plans to put as many as 42,000 of them in Earth orbit. Its goal is to provide high-speed Internet to billions of people. Moving toward that kind of access is important, but it comes at a cost. Glittering with reflected sunlight, these first orbiters, sent up in the past year, are brighter than 99 percent of the 5,000 or so other satellites now circling Earth, and obviously there are going to be a lot more. This sudden increase is bad for astronomy: the probability of a Star- link satellite crossing a telescopes field of view and ruining an observation will be quite high near sunset. For that reason, my fellow astronomers have signed a petition (请愿书) calling for governments to protect the night sky from this invasion. In response to protests, SpaceX has promised to address the visibility problem by, for example, applying experimental coatings essentially painting the satellites black but the companys aggressive launch schedule remains unchanged. And the satellites illuminated (被照亮) surfaces are mostly their solar panelsexactly the part that cannot be painted over. Unfortunately, at present no regulations govern how bright a single satellite can be, let alone thousands of them together. Even if there were such regulations, one nations laws can not hinder (阻碍) another countrys launches. Space literally has no borders, and the sky will need to be protected at an international level. As a consequence, we hope that the United Nations will find a way to think outside of the box to save the sky for everyone. When I was growing up in Montana, it was a game to be the first to find a moving satellite among the host of stars in the night sky. Soon it could be a game to recognize the constellations (星座) behind a swarm of moving points of light. 32. What is the writers attitude toward Space Xs launching plans? A. Indifferent. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Disapproving. 33. Why have my fellow astronomers signed the petition? A. SpaceX plans to send too many Star-line satellites into space. B. The Star-line satellites will possibly ruin an observation near sunset. C. The first orbiters are brighter than most of other satellites circling Earth. D. Space X fails to provide high-speed Internet to people around the world. 34. According to the author, who should shoulder the responsibility to save the sky? A. The United States. B. The United Nations. C. The company SpaceX. D. Just one nation. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Preserve the Night Sky B. Ban Star-line Satellites C. Observe the Stars Attentively D. Protest against Space X 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 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。 Its been a hard year but, while we cant change whats happening in the world, we can focus on creating a positive atmosphere. No more negative energy. 36 Hard times are rubbish, but they make you what you are. Recognize that and know that if you can come through them and you will be more capable and more confident. Its a lucky person indeed who manages to avoid upset as they go through life; whats important is how you deal with it. Count your blessings Feeling sorry for yourself? It may sound normal, but its important to remind yourself of whats good about your life. Try writing a list of the things youre thankful for, or spend a few minutes every evening putting down three nice things that have happened to you that day. 37 . Patted a dog in the park? Write it down. Laughed at a silly meme (表情包) on social media? Put that on the list too. Protect yourself from energy vampires We all know those who suck the joy out of life and leave you feeling emotionally exhausted. They moan, blame others or just generally bring you down. 38 .
