第二部分 话题阅读训练
(A)七选五
You've got mail ... and it's a postcard
Paulo Magalhaes, a 34-year-old Portuguese computer engineer, loves to open his mailbox and
find a brightly colored picture of Rome's Colosseum. Or Africa's Victoria Falls. Or China's Great
Wall. 1
"I often send postcards to family and friends." he says to China Daily," but you can imagine
that after a while, you never receive as many as you send, and you realize that not everyone is into
it. 2 " Seeking other like-minded souls, however, Paulo started looking in a somewhat unlikely
place: online. Many would say the Internet is a place for people who have given up on the
traditional postal service, but Paulo's hunch(直觉) paid off.
Today his hobby has developed into the website postcrossing. com, a social network that has
grown to 575,217 registered users in 214 countries and regions since he started it 10 years ago. 3
Running the website has almost turned into a full-time job.
Language is certainly a barrier for many people. For postcrossing to work worldwide, a
common communication language is needed so that everyone can understand each other. As cool
as it may be to receive a postcard written in Chinese, the concept doesn't work if one doesn't
understand it. 4 So a common language is required and in postcrossing that's English since it's
widely spoken.
“Many people in China have limited exposure to English. 5 That said, we know of many
postcrossing members, including Chinese, who have actually improved their English skills
through their use of postcrossing," Paulo says.
A. And that's totally fine.
资料收集整理【淘宝店铺:向阳百分百】B. That makes it extra hard to learn and practice it.
C. He likes to think of sending postcards as a family-friendly hobby.
D. Many love to make a connection with someone from across the world.
E. On August 5, the number of postcards exchanged by members topped 31 million.
F. Similarly, if you speak only Chinese, receiving a card in Swedish takes part of the fun away.
G. In short, he loves postcards, and the excitement of getting a hand-writ-ten note from someone
far away.

(B)阅读理解
Hundreds of scientists, writers and academics sounded a warning to humanity in an open
letter published last December: Policymakers and the rest of us must engage openly with the risk
of global collapse. Researchers in many areas have projected the widespread collapse as “a
credible scenario(情景)this century”。
A survey of scientists found that extreme weather events, food insecurity, and freshwater
shortages might create global collapse. Of course, if you are a non-human species, collapse is well
underway.
The call for public engagement with the unthinkable is especially germane in this moment of
still-uncontrolled pandemic and economic crises in the world's most technologically advanced
nations. Not very long ago, it was also unthinkable that a virus would shut down nations and that
safety nets would be proven so disastrously lacking in flexibility.
The international scholars' warning letter doesn't say exactly what collapse will look like or
when it might happen. Collapseology, the study of collapse, is more concerned with identifying
trends and with them the dangers of everyday civilization. Among the signatories (签署者) of the
warning was Bob Johnson, the originator of the “ecological footprint” concept, which measures
the total amount of environmental input needed to maintain a given lifestyle. With the current
footprint of humanity,“ it seems that global collapse is certain to happen in some form, possibly
within a decade, certainly within this century," Johnson said in an email.
“Only if we discuss the consequences of our biophysical limits," the December warning letter
says," can we have the hope to reduce their speed, severity and harm", And yet messengers of the
coming disturbance are likely to be ignored. We all want to hope things will turn out fine. As a
poet wrote,
Man is a victim of dope(麻醉品)
In the incurable form of hope.
The hundreds of scholars who signed the letter are intent(执着)on quieting hope that ignores
preparedness. “Let's look directly into the issue of collapse," they say, “and deal with the terrible
possibilities of what we see there to make the best of a troubling future.”
4.What does the underlined word “germane" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Scientific. B. Credible. C. Original. D. Relevant.
资料收集整理【淘宝店铺:向阳百分百】5. As for the public awareness of global collapse, the author is_________.
A. worried B. puzzled C. surprised D. scared
6. What can we learn from this passage?
A. The signatories may change the biophysical limits.
B. The author agrees with the message of the poem.
C. The issue of collapse is being prioritized.
D. The global collapse is well underway.
