2631．______the Lunar New Year's Eve，people usually decorate towns ______flowers and flags...（ ?。?/h2>
發(fā)布：2024/12/11 10:0:1組卷：11引用：3難度：0.52632．Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English，but is running free and developing uniquely local forms.Can you figure out the following terms？
"I like your smile，but unlike you put your shoes on my face. " This is a way of saying "Keep off the grass. " or "people mountain，people sea"，which means "very crowded".
These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it comes to Chinglish，if all you know is "good good study，day day up"，you will be considered "out man".
Nowadays，more Chinglish words have been created，for example，a Chinese idiom is translated as "smilence"，a combination by the English word smile and silence.
Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs，products，and advertising.They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors.Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years. "I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know，sometimes for us foreigners，it's actually quite charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect，then something would be lost from Chinese culture. "
However，Chinglish will probably become a "cultural relic" in the near future.Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years. "It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries，" a Beijinger said.
Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth，and now it's Chinese's turn.
（1）What can we call Chinglish？
A．English words which get new Chinese meanings.
B．The Chinese words which are difficult to translate.
C．The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar.
D．The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well.
（2）What does "smilence" most probably mean？
A．Saying nothing but to smile.
B．Smiling without being noticed.
C．Laughing at somebody.
D．Knowing little about speech.
（3）What is Swire's attitude to Chinglish？
A．It can show the humour of Chinese.
B．It will attract more foreign tourists.
C．It helps him to learn Chinese well.
D．It seems part of Chinese culture.
（4）Why Chinglish is likely to become a "cultural relic" in Beijing？
A．Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English.
B．Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English.
C．Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners.
D．Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs.發(fā)布：2024/12/11 9:0:1組卷：44引用：2難度：0.62633．

發(fā)布：2024/12/11 7:0:2組卷：58引用：11難度：0.82640．As global temperatures rise，trees around the world are experiencing longer growing seasons，sometimes as much as three extra weeks a year.All that time helps trees grow faster.For the past 100 years，trees have been experiencing fast growth in mild areas from Maryland to Finland，to Central Europe，where the growth rate of some trees has even sped up by nearly 77% since 1870.Supposing wood were just as strong today，those gains would mean more wood for building，burning，and storing carbon captured from the atmosphere.But is wood really as dense（茂密的） as it used to be？
Hans Pretzsch，a forest scientist at the Technical University of Munich in Germany，and his colleagues wanted to find an answer.They carried out a study of the forests of Central Europe.They started with small pieces of experimental land in southern Germany，some of which have been continuously monitored since 1870.Pretzsch and his team took core samples （樣品） from the trees — which included Norway spruce，sessile oak，European beech，and Scots pine — and analyzed the tree rings using a high-frequency probe.
They found that in all four species，wood density had decreased by 8% to 12%. "We expected a trend of the wood density like this，but not such a strong and significant decrease，" Pretzsch says.Increasing temperatures，and the faster growth they spur，probably account for some of the drop.Another factor，Pretzsch says，is more nitrogen in the soil from agricultural fertilizer and vehicle exhaust.Previous studies have linked increased fertilizer use to decreased wood density.Above all，the study suggests that the higher temperatures — combined with pollution from car exhaust and farms — are making wood weaker，resulting in trees that break more easily and wood that is less durable.
"I am getting worried，" says Richard Houghton，an ecologist at the Woods Hole Research Center in Falmouth，Massachusetts，who was not part of the new study.As the density of the samples dropped，so did their carbon content.That means forests may suffer more damage from storms and may be less efficient at soaking up（吸收） the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide （CO2） than scientists think，Houghton says.
（1）Paragraph 1 is written to.

（2）What does the study show？
A．Farming slows trees' growth.
B．More areas are covered with forests.
C．Climate warming changes the quality of wood.
D．Pollution leads to higher temperatures.
（3）What does Richard Houghton mean？
A．Great loss might be caused.
B．Storm damage can be prevented.
C．The size of forests might be increased.
D．Less greenhouse gases can be sent out.
（4）What is the best title for the passage？
A．We only have one earth
B．Trees — our best friends
C．The influence of climate change
D．Trees are growing faster，but weaker發(fā)布：2024/12/11 7:0:2組卷：14引用：1難度：0.5
