1~4.【答案】C、A、B、C【詳解】【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文。主要在講述隨著人口過剩、氣候變化和日益嚴(yán)重的水資源短缺，創(chuàng)新者們一直在尋找新的解決方案。

1.

根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容：礦化河流，淡化海水，鉆探地下，在缺水的地方有很多不同的方法來獲得飲用水。但隨著人口過剩、氣候變化和日益嚴(yán)重的水資源短缺，創(chuàng)新者們一直在尋找新的解決方案——有些人確信答案還懸而未決?？芍?，第一段主要關(guān)于飲用水短缺的解決辦法。故選C。

2.

根據(jù)第四段Thisprocess,however,canconsumealotofelectricityandmanyoftheseearlytechnologiesonlyworkinplaceswithhighairhumidity(濕氣).TheselimitsarewhaturgedSOURCEtodevelopamoreflexibleandsustainablesolution.（然而，這一過程會消耗大量電能，而且許多早期技術(shù)只在空氣濕度高的地方起作用。這些限制促使SOURCE制定更靈活和可持續(xù)的解決方案。）可知，SOURCE正在尋找新的解決方案是因為AWG的設(shè)計過于傳統(tǒng)。故選A。

3.

根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的Ithasalsoattractedcommercialclients—particularlyincountriescateringtotouristsinisolatedlandscapes,suchasthedesert.（它還吸引了商業(yè)客戶，特別是在沙漠等偏僻地區(qū)為游客提供服務(wù)的國家。）可知，SOURCE的設(shè)計更令人滿意的結(jié)果是偏遠(yuǎn)的沙漠地區(qū)有水供應(yīng)。故選B。

4.

根據(jù)最后一段中的SOURCE'sdesignisdifferentfromotherAWGsbecauseitcombinessolar-basedpowersupplyandwatercapturemechanismwithinthesamestructure,enablingoff-networkoperation.（該公司的設(shè)計不同于其他AWG，因為它將太陽能供電和水捕獲機制結(jié)合在同一結(jié)構(gòu)內(nèi)，可以實現(xiàn)非聯(lián)網(wǎng)運行。）KeithHays對SOURCE的設(shè)計的態(tài)度是贊成的。故選C。

5~9.【答案】G、C、F、A、B【詳解】【文章大意】主要論述了世界人口的增加所帶來的影響。

1.

根據(jù)前文“Everynewpersonaddedtotheplanetneedsfood,water,clothes,andsoon.”可知，地球上的每一個新生命都需要食物、水、衣服等。分析選項，G項“更多的人意味著更多的汽車、道路、學(xué)校、醫(yī)院和商店”與上句在內(nèi)容上形成并列關(guān)系，且下句中的Thosethings指代選項中的cars,roads,schools,hospitals,andstores。故選G。

2.

根據(jù)前句“Oneoutofeverythirteenpeoplearoundtheworlddoesnotalwayshaveenoughcleanwater.”可知，十三分之一的人沒有足夠的清潔水。分析選項，C項“水資源短缺已經(jīng)影響到世界上許多地方”可以承接上文，選項中的“Watershortages”呼應(yīng)上文中的“doesnotalwayshaveenoughcleanwater”；且下文“Toomanypeopleareusingtoomuchwater”解釋了水資源短缺的一個原因。故選C。

3.

根據(jù)前文“Worldwide,oneoutofeverysevenpeopledoesnotgetenoughtoeat.”可知，此處內(nèi)容與世界上的饑餓問題相關(guān)。F項“對糧食的巨大需求迫使農(nóng)民過度使用他們的土地”符合話題，且與下文“thesoillosesitsnutrients(營養(yǎng))andthefarmlandbecomesuselessforgrowingfood”形成語義上的因果關(guān)系。故選F。

4.

根據(jù)前句“Astheworldbecomesmorecrowded(擁擠的),morelandisneededtomakewayforgrowingcities.”可知，擁擠的世界導(dǎo)致人們需要建立更多的城市。A項“森林被砍伐”是建立城市導(dǎo)致的后果，且可以引出下文關(guān)于樹木與二氧化碳的關(guān)系的介紹，符合語境，故選A。

5.

根據(jù)后文“althougheverypersonusestheplanet'sresources”可知，后文為對此空的讓步，B項“有些人比其他人用得多”符合語境，故選B。

10~24.【答案】A、C、A、C、B、D、A、C、B、C、A、B、D、A、C【詳解】【文章大意】本文是一篇說明文。文章從歷史和發(fā)現(xiàn)兩個方面，對秦始皇陵的發(fā)掘和出土進(jìn)行了講述。

1.

2.

句意同上。A.inrelationto與……有關(guān)；B.onbehalfof代表；C.intermsof從……方面；D.incaseof萬一。根據(jù)破折號可知，破折號后的句子是對之前的句子作補充說明，所以是從兩方面講這些雕塑的規(guī)模。故選C。

3.

句意：在這里，我們向您介紹兵馬俑的歷史，包括它在公元前3世紀(jì)的創(chuàng)建和在20世紀(jì)70年代的發(fā)現(xiàn)。A.discovery發(fā)現(xiàn)；B.routine慣例；C.description描述；D.origin起源。根據(jù)下文的第二個小標(biāo)題Discovery可知，下文要講兵馬俑的歷史和發(fā)現(xiàn)。故選A。

6.

句意：為了慶祝他的勝利和紀(jì)念他的生命，他下令在西安建造一個墓地。A.admire欽佩；B.reflect反應(yīng)；C.decorate裝飾；D.memorize紀(jì)念。根據(jù)and可知，前后句意相似，前文celebratehistriumphs意為“慶祝他的勝利”，所以后文用memorize“紀(jì)念”符合語境。故選D。

7.

句意：他的墓地堆滿了珍貴的財產(chǎn)，還有數(shù)千名特制的兵馬俑，以便在他死后保護他。A.defend保護；B.preserve預(yù)留；C.energize激勵；D.challenge挑戰(zhàn)。根據(jù)soldiers（士兵）可知，是要保護他。故選A。
