Many of you may want to study abroad after graduating from high school because we tend to think overseas universities are better than domestic (国内的) ones. But at the same time, more and more international students are coming to study in China. A record-breaking 397,635 international students came to China in 2017, and China is now the third most popular

destination for overseas students behind the US and the UK, according to a report released by the Student.com website on Feb 12. With an average of 10 percent year-on-year growth, the number of international students in China has doubled since 2005. If present growth rates continue, China will indeed challenge the UK for the second place by 2020.

The trend is thought to be mainly due to a growing academic reputation and large government support.

More and more international students are coming to China to get master ’s and doctorate degrees. According to the report, of the international students seeking a degree in China, 71 percent are undergraduates. However, the strongest growth in the number of students can be seen in master’s and doctorate degrees.

In addition, the international standing of Chinese universities has improved a lot. For

example, the Chinese mainland has 24 universities in the global top 500, according to this year ’s edition of the QS World University Rankings, one of the most famous university rankings. The Chinese government has also given a large amount of support to encourage

international students to come to China. According to the report, the Chinese government granted 40,600 scholarships to international students in 2017, meaning that international students get nearly five times the quantity of scholarships they would have received 10 years ago. Last year, 40 percent of all international students new to China received government sponsorship (资助).

“As its government continues to invest (投入) in improving the quality of the education system and its universities keep rising in the global rankings, we expect China to attract students in greater numbers and diversity,” the report commented.

24. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Most of the international students in China are graduates.

B. Twenty four universities in China are among the global top 500.

C. In 2017, more than 40,000 scholarships were given to international students.

D. The number of international students studying in China increased by 40% last year. 25. What’s the main idea of the passage?

页

3第

C. Universities in China are crowded with international students. D. China will surely attract more international students in the future. 26. The first paragraph is developed mainly by _______. A. analyzing causes B. making comparisons

C. providing examples D. following the order of space

27. What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of the international study in China? A. Optimistic. B. Pessimistic. C. Indifferent. D. Mixed.

Reporting has taken me to many strange places. The oddest is the National Airborne Operations Centre, the plane that carries American defense secretaries around the globe. Over the years the plane ---- or to be precise, planes, as the US Air Force runs four of them, each nearly identical ---- has carried me to more than a dozen countries as a member of the small travelling press corporation that accompanies the civilian head of the Pentagon overseas.

Add together the flights I have taken on the E4-B, some as long as 19 hours, and I have spent weeks of my life aboard, most of which in the windowless conference room used to house the press, fitted with banks of computers and secure telephones that military officers and polit ical leaders would use in the event of a war. Most of the aircraft is off-limits to us, though on long trips the press may be invited to the secretary’s cabin to listen to those off-the-record talks.

The strangest part of flying aboard the E4-B is mid-air refueling, made necessary by the plane’s great weight, thanks to its unusual equipment and special shield to protect it from the

electromagnetic pulse produced by a nuclear explosion. During an aerial refueling, up to four oil tankers fly in from American air bases around the world.

To watch a refueling from my seat is to witness a fine metaphor for an ageing superpower. Putting jet fuel into a 40-year-old jumbo jet(大型喷气式客机) high in the sky is a risky, highly skilled operat ion beyond the capacities of most nations on earth. It is also wildly expensive. With a crew of dozens, including its own security force, the plane is reputed to cost $250,000 an hour to run. A military cargo plane follows it to each stop round the globe, as an emergency spare. 28. The author is probably _______.

A. a pilot B. an engineer C. a journalist D. a repairman

29. According to the second paragraph, which of the following is TRUE? A. For most of time, there is no restriction on the author.

B. The conference room is equipped with some necessary equipment. C. Every flight the author has taken takes a long time. D. Information should be recorded in all the conferences. 30. What does the underlined word “spare” mean?

A. Store. B. Alternative. C. Rescue. D. Facility.

31. According to the last paragraph, the author thinks the plane is _______. A. Risky B. Expensive C. Skilled D. Old

D

Nature has its own way of balancing itself out, but when we humans get involved, we tend to throw things out of control. Forests and oceans are natural carbon sinks that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, but since we’ve been pumping too much into the air, those sinks can’t keep up. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, led by biologist Tobias Erb, have figured out a way to supercharge plants to make them better at absorbing CO2, which could be a key defense

against climate change.

Erb and his team figured out a way to make plants more efficient at absorbing carbon, so that they consumed more carbon in a shorter amount of time.

“If you think about plants, they are efficient CO2-fixing filters, but they are not fast,” Erb said. “I think there is a chance to improve existing biology with synthetic(人造的) biology.”

Erb’s team identified 17 enzymes(酶) from nine different organisms, re-engineering three of them, that had an enlarged carbon consumption. When those enzymes worked together as a team, they worked better at not only plants’ natural enzymes, but also themselves individually. Exist ing enzymes in plants consume about 5 to 10 molecules(摩尔) of CO2 per second. The team of enzymes that Erb used consumed 80 molecules per second.

So far, these enzymes have only been tested in test tubes in the lab, but the next step is real world testing where the enzymes would be introduced into plants to see if the same result occurs. If those tests show that plants really can be supercharged, we could have a new tool in the fight against climate change where not only do we protect the amazing carbon-absorbing forests we have, but we also add these super plants or an artificial leaf technology using the enzymes into other mixed fields. 32.Why can’t forests and oceans balance nature? A. Because oceans and forests are getting smaller. B. Because we human beings give off too much CO2. C. Because a large number of forests are cut down. D. Because there are too many creatures in the world.

33. Which is the key defense against climate change according to Erb and his team? A. To increase the plants’ ability and efficiency to absorb CO2. B. To make oceans and forests to absorb more CO2 quickly. C. To reduce the human’s activities giving off too much CO2. D. To increase the number of plants in the world. 34. What can we get from the last paragraph?

A. The enzymes have proved useful in real world. B. The technology has worked against climate change. C. The enzymes have not been used in the lab. D. The technology may have a bright future. 35. This passage is intended to __________.

A. introduce a possible way to better plants’ ability of absorbing CO2 B. call on people to pay more attention to the balance of nature C. analyze the cause and result of climate change related to plants

D. explore the possibility of using plants to fight against climate change 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2 分，满分10 分）
