　　2017高考模拟题。阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

　　Who won China’s first gold medal at the 2017 Sochi Winter Olympics? It was Li Jianrou. The 27-year-old finished first in the women’s 500m short track speed skating on Feb 13. The race was full of drama. Three athletes fell over because of an accident caused by Elise Christie of Britain in the second turn and Li became the surprise winner.

　　Three-time defending champion Wang Meng of China missed the Olympics after breaking her ankle last month. Li had little experience in the race, where getting off to a quick Start is important. But she kept her cool while everyone else was falling around her.

　　“I feel very lucky,” Li said through a translator.

　　She and one of her coaches cried tears of joy after China joined South Korea as the only countries to win the same short track event four Olympics in a row. The Koreans won the 3,000 relay in 1994, 1998, 2002 and 2006.

　　“I cried because I was so excited,” Li said. “My coach told me this medal is for Wang Meng as well, so I felt very moved.”

　　Li’s victory made up for the surprising fall of teammate Fan Kexin in the semifinals. In the semis, Fan didn’t even complete the first lap of the race, catching her left blade（冰刀）as she skated near the front. She crashed on all fours into the crew of workers who maintain the ice between races. They climbed onto the top of the pads to avoid being injured by Fan’s long, sharp blades.

　　A review from the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO), warns that the oceans are facing multiple threats. They are being heated by clima2r2e change, turning slowly less alkaline(碱性的)by absorbing CO2, and suffering from overfishing and pollution.

　　The report says, "We have been taking the ocean for granted. It has been shielding us from the worst effects of accelerating climate change by absorbing excess CO2 from the atmosphere. "

　　Although the temperature increases may be experiencing a pause, the ocean continues to warm regardless. For the most part, however, the public and policymakers are failing to recognize - or choosing to ignore - the severity of the situation. Coral reefs, for instance, are suffering from the higher temperatures.

　　IPSO, funded by charitable foundations, is publishing a set of five papers based on workshops in 2011 and 2017 in partnership with the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The reports call for governments all over the world to halt(暂停) CO2 increase at 450ppm, and also urge much more focused fisheries management and apriority list for tackling the key groups of chemicals that cause most harmful effects. They want the governments to negotiate a new agreement for the sustainable fishing in the high oceans to be monitored by a new global high seas enforcement agency.

　　The IUCN’s Prof Dan Laffoley said, "What these latest reports make absolutely clear is that delaying action will increase costs in the future and lead to even greater, perhaps permanent losses." The UN climate report confirmed that the ocean is bearing the pressure of human-induced changes to our planet. These discovery give us not only more cause for alarm - but also a road map for action. We must use it.

　　41. According to the passage, _______are NOT the reason why the oceans become slowly less

　　alkaline.

　　A. various pollutions

　　B. higher temperatures

　　C. bad fishing practices

　　D. destroyed coral reefs

　　42. The underlined word "shielding" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to"__________".

　　A. warning

　　B. protecting

　　C. showing

　　D. cooling

　　43. Which of the following is NOT the purpose of the reports published by IPSO?

　　A. To appeal to world governments to halt CO2 increase at 450ppm.

　　B. To tell us that the ocean is bearing the pressure of human-induced changes to our

　　planet.

　　C. To ask the governments to carry out new measures for the sustainable fishing in the

　　high oceans.

　　D. To advise the governments to make a priority list for tackling the key groups of

　　chemicals that cause most harm.

　　44. Which of the following can NOT be concluded from the passage?

　　A. The reports warn us that we need to take actions right now.

　　B. Coral reefs are weakened by bad fishing practices and pollution.

　　C. The global temperature is increasing and the ocean continues to warm as well.

　　D. It seems that the policymakers are trying to ignore the severity of the ocean

　　situation.

　　45.What is the probable purpose of this passage?

　　A. To tell us that the oceans become less alkaline.

　　B. To advise us to negotiate a new agreement for the sustainable fishing.

　　C. To tell us that global wa9rming has a great effect on the oceans' temperature.

　　D. To warn us that the oceans are in danger and immediate measures should be taken.

　　As a 12-year-old during the Cultural Revolution he left school to work, first in agriculture, later in a factory．In 1976 he joined the People's Liberation Army and during this time began to study literature and write．His first short story was published in a literary journal in 1981．

　　Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition, the academy commented in the biographical statement．

　　In addition to his novels, Mo Yan has published many short stories and essays on various topics．In spite of his social criticism, he is seen in his homeland as one of the foremost contemporary authors, the statement added．

　　But deaths are only part of the story．The world was shocked by photographs of Americans torturing （折磨） Iraqis in Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad．David Goldstein, a reporter with The Kansas City Star, questioned American behavior: "Has torturing so-called terrorists saved American lives or made the values we advocate around the world weaker? …" Is that what we've become?"

　　September 11 was that kind of common moment．When it was over, the Harth still turned in its usual way and the stars in the sky shone as before．But the universe had shifted somehow．

　　Though the world felt the consequence of September 11, more is to come．Ten years on, it still might be too soon to tell．
