9、ntaineer from near Camp 3 at 23，000 feet on Everest(珠穆朗玛峰). The climber named Gautam nearly reached the top but became extremely exhausted and seriously dehydrated(脱水的) After a difficult and dangerous rescue, the team was able to successfully save Gautams life. In an interview with Moro, the pilot o

10、f the rescue team, he said, “You have to be prepared, technically, physically, and also mentally.” He added, “The aim wasnt to set a record but to save someones life.” The team has flown rescue tasks using Nepalese helicopters(直升机) for two years but had the idea to create a team with its own helicop

11、ter, which has been able to complete this season.

Although they

16、 happen quite frequently, tornadoes are difficult to predict. Why? Tornadoes develop from storms, but only some storms are likely to become tornadoes. Scientists dont know where and when a storm will touch the ground and turn into a tornado. Today, the warning time for a tornado is usually just 13 m

17、inutes. Time Samaras is a storm chaser. His job is to find tornadoes and follow them. When he gets close to a tornado, he puts a special tool called a turtle probe on the ground. This tool measures things like a tornados temperature, humidity(湿度), and wind speed. With this information, Samaras can l

18、earn what causes tornadoes to develop. If meteorologists(气象学家) understand this, they can warn people about tornadoes sooner and save lives. How does Samaras hunt tornadoes? Its not easy. First, he has to find one. Tornadoes are too small to see using weather satellites. So Samaras cant rely on these

19、 tools to find a tornado. Instead, he waits for tornadoes to develop. Every May and June, Samaras drives about 40，000 kilometers across an area known as Tornado Alley, looking and hoping to spot a tornado. Once Samaras sees a tornado, the chase begins. But a tornado is hard to follow. Some tornadoes

20、 change direction several timesfor example, moving east and then west and then east again. When Samaras finally gets near a tornado, he puts the turtle probe on the ground. Being this close to a tornado is terrifying. Debris(碎片) is flying in the air. Then wind is blowing at high speed. He must get a

21、way quickly. The work is risky, even for a skilled chaser like Samaras. But danger wont stop his hunt for the perfect storm. 5. What do we know about tornadoes? A.

Sometimes

24、this molten rock, called “magma” ， is pushed up to the surface. _1_ And the opening or vent that lets the lava out is a volcano. A volcano may explode violently, throwing out rocks for miles around. _2_ Some volcanoes release clouds of poisonous gas or huge clouds of ash. Volcanoes can even do all t

25、hese things underwater. Most volcanoes have been around for a very long time. Many havent erupted for years and have cooled off. Volcanoes that are not going to erupt again are called “dead volcanoes”. Some volcanoes still give off smoke. These “sleeping volcanoes” may “wake up” one day and erupt ag

26、ain. _3_ But one day in AD 79 it suddenly woke up. Its eruption threw out hot ash and rocky fragments(碎片) that buried the city of Pompeii. A hot mud- flow buried nearby Herculaneum. Because the remains are so well preserved, the area has been named a World Heritage site. But not all volcanoes are de

27、structive. When a volcano throws out vast amounts of lava and debris(岩屑), it piles up into a mountain. _4_ Other volcanoes help provide heat and energy. Many Icelandic homes get their hot water from springs heated by volcanic steam. _5_ Plants grow very well in the rich soil left by volcanoes. And v

28、aluable gems, such as diamonds, can sometimes be found in the rocks that are thrown out by volcanoes. A. At this point it is referred to as “lava” B. The molten rock is formed inside the Earth. C. This steam can also be used to produce electricity. D. Mount Vesuvius in Italy slept for a thousand yea

29、rs. E. Or it may push lava out so that it flows away, cools and hardens. F. Japan has many active volcanoes within its narrow national territory. G. The Hawaiian Islands and the island of Iceland were created in this way. 1. _ 2. _ 3. _ 4. _ 5. _ 必修三必修三 Unit 2 午间训练午间训练() . 完形填空 体裁：记叙文 话题：超级英雄 字数：355

39、even more so when it comes to electronics. While electronics recycling isnt bad, making it a panacea(万能药) for the e- waste problem we currently have certainly is. Unfortunately, thats how we think of recycling and companies are eager to jump on that trend to appear more “green” A case in point: Appl

40、e. In 2016, there was lots of report on Liam, a robot able to dismantle(拆解) an iPhone in just 11 secondsa good way to recycle 1.2 million units a year. That sounds amazing until you take into account the fact that Apple had actually sold 231 million new iPhones the year before. Actually, Liam is the

41、 perfect symbol for recycling in the field of hightech: a drop of green water in an ocean of pollution. According to a recent UN report, the US produces about 6.3 million tons or 14% of the worlds electronic waste. Worldwide, almost 45 million tons of electronic waste were produced in 2016. Among th

42、em, only 20% has been recycled in some shape or form. The remaining 80% made its way to a more environmentally damaging end at the landfill(垃圾清理场) Of course, we can say its time to double our recycling efforts. However, the huge amount of ewaste is impossible to deal with. The UN report points out t

43、hat while there is an increased focus on recycling today compared to the past, the efforts to reuse used devices simply cant keep pace with the high consumption rates for new devices. And in their environmental responsibilities report, Apple admits that 77% of the carbon footprint of their electroni

44、cs comes from its actual use. The environmental effect of replacing a device, even if it is recycled after, remains significant. 1. Whats the author concerned about according to Paragraph 1? A.

45、gh cost to be green. D. The ewaste problem is out of control. 2. What may worsen the ewaste problem? A. Few reports on the issue. B. Low quality of equipment. C. Difficult recycling progress. D.

46、e. B. The limitation of electronics recycling. C. The responsibilities Apple should take on. D. The importance of protecting the environment. B 体裁：说明文 话题：帕金森病 字数：310 难易度： 建议用时：6 分钟 A study showed that people who develop Parkinsons disease(帕金森病) before age 50 may trace its origin before birth. The re

47、search points to a drug that may potentially help correct these disease processes. The study published in the journal Nature Medicine showed that those patients may have been born with disordered brain cells that went undetected for decades. The research team from Cedars- Sinai Medical Center used s

48、pecial stem cells which were generated from adult blood cells. They made those stem cells from patients into dopamine neurons(多巴胺能神经元), and then cultured them in a dish. The researchers identified two abnormalities(异常) in those dopamine neurons in the dish. The first one is the accumulation of a spe

49、cial protein which occurs in most forms of Parkinsons disease. The second is the unusual cell structures that act as “trash cans” for the cell to break down and destroy proteins. “What we are seeing is the very first sign of young- occurring Parkinsons by using this new model， ” said the studys senior author Clive Svendsen with CedarsSinai. “It appears that dopamine neurons in these individuals may continue to mishandle this special protein over a period of 20 or 30 y
