2022·温州六校联考 记叙文 323词 ★★★☆☆
The Maldives faces the threat of extinction from rising sea levels, but the government said on
Thursday it was looking to the future with plans to build homes and a golf course that can float.
An increase in sea levels of just 18 to 59 centimeters would make the Maldives—a nation of
a number of tiny coral islands in the Indian Ocean—not suitable for humans to live in by 2100, the
UN's climate change experts have warned.
President Mohamed Nasheed has declared a fight for survival, and last month he signed a
deal with a Dutch company to study suggestions for a floating structure that could support a
conference centre, homes and an 18hole golf course.
The company, Dutch Docklands, is currently building floating developments in the
Netherlands and Dubai. Its website said it undertook projects that make “land from water by
providing largescale floating constructions to create similar conditions as on land”．
The Maldives began to work on an artificial island known as the Hulhumale near the
crowded capital island of Male in 1997 and more than 30，000 people have been settled there in
order to ease crowdedness. The city, which has a population of 100，000, is already protected
from rising sea levels by a 30milliondollar sea wall, and the government is considering
increasingly imaginative ways to fight climate change.
Nasheed, who held the world's first underwater cabinet (内阁) meeting in October to
highlight his people's serious and difficult situation, has even spoken of buying land elsewhere in
the world to enable Maldivians to relocate if their homes are completely covered.
He has also promised to turn his nation into a model for the rest of the world by becoming
“carbon neutral (碳中和)” by 2020. His plan involves ending fossil fuel use and powering all
vehicles and buildings from “green” sources such as burning coconut husks.1．According to the passage, the Maldives is a country ________．
A．that is made up of many small islands
B．which has been covered by water now
C．where people live in underwater houses
D．whose people live in their floating homes
2．Mohamed Nasheed chose Dutch Docklands for his plan probably because it ________．
A．has a good fame throughout the world
B．charged much less than other companies
C．has experience in building floating structures
D.supports building floating structures in the world
3．The Hulhumale was built for the purpose of ________．
A．attracting more visitors
B．making it a new capital
C．fighting against climate change
D．making the capital less crowded
4．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A.To promote the idea of lowcarbon living style.
B.To tell people that the Maldives is disappearing soon.
C.To discuss the causes why the Maldives faces extinction.
D.To introduce the efforts taken by Maldivians to fight for life.

Does Fame Drive You Crazy?
Although being famous might sound like a dream come true, today's stars, feeling like zoo
animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world's
attention. Paparazzi (狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish
thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without
being photographed or interrupted for a signature.
According to psychologist Christina Villareal, celebrities—famous people—worry constantly
about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing
themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew
their names. “Over time，” Villareal says, “they feel separated and alone.”
The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B．C.,
painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers.
When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his soldout readings attracted
thousands of fans, leading him to complain about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and
1930s ran articles about filmstars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.
Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars
cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say
something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in
minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.
If fame is so troublesome, why aren't all celebrities running away from it? The answer is that
there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted
friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on howfamous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.
Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice
often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.
5．It can be learned from the passage that stars today ________．
A．are often misunderstood by the public
B．can no longer have their privacy protected
C．spend too much on their public appearance
D．care little about how they have come into fame
6．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.Great heroes of the past were generally admired.
B.The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.
C．Wellknown actors are usually targets of tabloids.
D.Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.
7．What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?
A.Availability of modern media.
B．Inadequate social recognition.
C．Lack of favorable chances.
D．Huge population of fans.
8．What is the author's attitude toward modern celebrity?
A．Sincere. B．Skeptical.
C．Disapproving. D．Sympathetic.
