17、to China and India.A study by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), based on extensive satellite photographs and published in the journal Nature Sustainability, has revealed that the two countries with the worlds biggest populations are also responsible for the largest increase in gr

18、eenness.Since 2000, the planets green leaf area has increased by 5 percent, or over 2 million square miles. Thats an area equivalent to the sum total of the Amazon rainforests, NASA says. But researchers stressed that the new greenery does not neutralize deforestation and its negative impacts on eco

19、systems elsewhere.A third of the leaf increase is thanks to China and India, due to the implementation of major tree-planting projects alongside a vast increase in agriculture.Using the data from a NASA sensor, researchers discovered that China is the source of a quarter of the increase in green lea

20、f area, despite possessing only 6.6 percent of the worlds vegetated area (植被區(qū)). Forests account for 42 percent of that increase, while croplands make up a further 32 percent. Chinas increase in forest area is the result of forest preservation and expansion programs, NASA said, established to fight a

21、gainst the impacts of climate change, air pollution and soil erosion (水土流失). India has contributed a further 6.8 percent rise in green leaf area, with 82 percent from croplands and 4.4 percent from forests.Rama Nemani, a co-author of the study and a researcher at NASAs Ames Research Center, said in

22、a statement, “When the greening of the Earth was first observed, we thought it was due to a warmer, wetter climate and fertilization from the added carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, leading to more leaf growth in northern forests, for instance.” “Now, with the data that lets us understand the phenom

23、enon at really small scales, we see that humans are also contributing,” Nemani said. “This will help scientists make better predictions about the behavior of different Earth systems, which will help countries make better decisions about how and when to take action.”Thomas Pugh, a professor at the Un

24、iversity of Birminghams School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, said the NASA report expands scientists understanding of the causes behind global greening. But he also cautioned that a direct line cannot be drawn between an increase in global greening and a decrease in negative impact

25、s of climate change.28.The passage mainly tells us that _.A.China and India have the worlds largest green leaf areasB.China and India are the lead role players in global greeningC.our planet is experiencing a climate crisis despite human effortsD.our planet is getting greener due to the joint effort

26、s of the world29.What can be learned about China and India?A.The area of croplands in India is larger than that in China.B.Indias rise in leaf area is largely due to its forestry program.C.They both show a greater increase in forests than in croplands.D.China boasts twenty-five percent of the global

27、 rise in leaf area.30.According to Rama Nemani, their new findings are_.A.unexpected but significantB.surprising but valuelessC.predictable but disappointingD.uncontrollable but inspiring31.What can be inferred from the passage?A.There is an indirect link between global greening and climate change.B

28、.The new greenery does not have any positive effect on the global climate.C.The gain in greenness does not make up for the damage from loss of leaf area.D.The increase in greening reduces the deforestation rate and its impact globally.DVideo calls are a common occurrence, but have you imagined being

29、 able to touch the person on the other end of the line? Scientists are making this a reality. Researchers at the University of New South Wales, Australia, have invented a soft skin stretch device (SSD), a haptic(觸覺的) device that can recreate the sense of touch.Haptic technology imitates the experien

30、ce of touch by stimulating(刺激) localized areas of the skin in ways that are similar to what is felt in the real world through force, vibration(震動) or motion. Vibration is the most common haptic technology today and has been built into many electronic devices. However, the existing technology has gre

31、at difficulty recreating the sense of touch with objects in virtual(虛擬的) environments or located remotely, according to Mai Thanh Thai, lead author of the study.The new technology overcomes problems with existing haptic devices. The research team introduced a new method to recreate the sense of touc

32、h through soft, artificial “muscles”.“Our three-way directional skin stretch device, built into the fingertips of the wearable haptic glove we also created, is like wearing a second skin its soft, stretchable and imitates the sense of touch and will enable new forms of haptic communication to improv

33、e everyday activities, said Thanh Nho Do, senior author of the study.It works like this: Imagine you are at home and you call your friend who is in Australia. You wear a haptic glove with the SSDs and your friend also wears a glove with 3D force sensors. If your friend picks up an object, it will ph

34、ysically press against your friends fingers. And their glove with 3D force sensors will measure these interactions. The force signals can be sent to your glove so your device will generate the same 3D forces, making you experience the same sense of touch as your friend.The haptic devices could be ap

35、plied in various situations, allowing users to feel objects inside a virtual world or at a distance. This could be especially beneficial during such times like the COVID-19 pandemic when people rely on video calls to stay connected with loved ones. Or it could be used in medical practices. Doctors c

36、an feel a patients organ tissues(器官組織) with surgical tools without touching them.32.Whats the authors purpose of writing this passage?A.To encourage the use of a new product.B.To inform readers of a new invention.C.To compare different haptic devices.D.To introduce the development of haptic technolo

37、gy.33.What can we learn about the SSD?A.It recreates the sense of touch through muscles.B.It takes the shape of a wearable glove.C.It makes virtual haptic communication possible.D.It has been built into many electronic devices.34.What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A.The advantages of the new h

38、aptic glove.B.The applications of the new haptic technology.C.An explanation of how the haptic device works.D.A personal experience of using SSDs during a video call.35.How could the new haptic device benefit people?A.It could replace video calls as a way to communicate.B.It could be used for recrea

You probably imagine a vast area of land covered with trees. But as

40、many traditional forests are destroyed, tiny forests some as small as a tennis court- have sprung up(涌現(xiàn))in cities around the world.36_. These mini forests are inspired by Akira Miyawaki, a botanist, or plant scientist from Japan who pioneered a special way of growing forests.37_It involves planting

41、a wide variety of native trees close together and leaving them to grow into a forest. Miyawaki has planted more than 1,000 of these in Japan and other countries.The Miyawaki method is said to grow trees 10 times faster than other methods.38_Thats according to a 2018 study by Wageningen University, i

42、n the Netherlands. The study says the diversity of tree species attracts a greater variety of insects looking for food and shelter.39_Boomforest is an organization in Paris, France. It planted two forests using the Japanese botanists method. The group also teaches people how they can grow their own

43、mini forests. In the Netherlands, IVN Nature Education has helped communities build 100 forests using the Miyawaki method. The group also educates kids about tiny forests.Simon Lewis, a professor of global change science at University College London, is excited about tiny forests. He explains that i

44、ts important to grow trees because they absorb carbon dioxide.40_He hopes more people will use the Miyawaki method to plant mini forests.A. It plans to double that number by 2022.B. The Miyawaki method has become popular in Europe.C. Theyre increasing biodiversity(生物多樣性)and fighting climate change.D

45、. Thats a gas that contributes to climate change.E. Lewis points to trees grown and cut down to make paper.F. Its known as the Miyawaki method.G. And these tiny forests are more bio-diverse than traditional forests.第三部分 語言知識運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) （共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處
