答案和解析1~3.【答案】C、A、C【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，文章主要介紹了SaintPaul的四個(gè)溜冰場(chǎng)的位置，開放時(shí)間以及注意的細(xì)節(jié)。

1.

根據(jù)RinkHours&Locations:中的“Rinkswillcloseperiodicallyformaintenance.(溜冰場(chǎng)將定期關(guān)閉去維護(hù))”可知，在維護(hù)期間，溜冰場(chǎng)將關(guān)閉。故選C。

2.

根據(jù)RinkHours&Locations:中的PhalenOpenMon-Fri:Lightsturnoffat9pmSat&Sun:Lightsturnoffat7pm651-793-6600可知在周二下午8點(diǎn)，如果你有時(shí)間，可以去Phalen，因此它周一至周五，燈光在晚上9點(diǎn)關(guān)閉。故選A。3.

根據(jù)最后一段中的Evenifyoufeelyoucan'tcommittovolunteering,youarestilldesiredtohelpbyclearingsnowwhilevisitingtherinks.（即使你感覺你不能投身于志愿者活動(dòng)，你仍舊被期待在參觀溜冰場(chǎng)時(shí)，可以幫助清理雪。）可知，最后一段鼓勵(lì)參觀者幫助除雪。故選C。

1.

根據(jù)上文thewomenvillagerswouldrevealapenny（女村民們會(huì)拿出一便士）和下文intheirwaistbands（在她們的腰帶里）推知，女村民們給DiebedoFrancisKere的錢是藏在她們的腰帶里的，即劃線詞意為“藏”，與hidden同義。故選D。

2.

根據(jù)第二段中的Mostsignificantly,theschoolwasbuiltbyvillagemembers—whohelpedproducethebricks,buildthewallsandpolishthemudfloors.（最重要的是，這所學(xué)校是由村民建造的，他們幫忙制磚、砌墻和拋光泥地板。）可知，GandoPrimarySchool是由當(dāng)?shù)鼐用窆餐ㄔ斓摹９蔬xB。

3.

根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的"FrancisKere'sworkshowsusthepowerofmaterialityrootedinplace.Itissustainabletotheearthanditsresidents—inlandsofextremescarcity(缺乏),"announcedTomPritzker,chairmanoftheaward.（獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)主席湯姆·普利茲克宣布：“FrancisKere的作品向我們展示了根植于地方的物質(zhì)的力量。這對(duì)地球和它的居民來(lái)說(shuō)是可持續(xù)的——在極端稀缺的土地上?！保┛芍琄ere的可持續(xù)發(fā)展項(xiàng)目使他獲得了該獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)。故選C。

4.

根據(jù)第一段的Whenhewas7,DiebedoFrancisKerelefthisnativevillageGandoattheinsistenceofhisfathersothathemightlearntoreadandwrite.（7歲時(shí)，在父親的堅(jiān)持下，迪貝多·弗朗西斯·凱爾離開了家鄉(xiāng)甘多村，以便學(xué)習(xí)閱讀和寫作。）和第二段中的Itwasaworthwhileinvestment:Kereisnowanarchitect,andin2001,hedidreturntoGandotobuildhisfirsteducationbuilding,GandoPrimarySchool.（這是一項(xiàng)值得的投資：Kere現(xiàn)在是一名建筑師，2001年，他回到Gando，建造了他的第一座教育大樓GandoPrimarySchool。）可知，Kere從小離家學(xué)習(xí)，學(xué)成后報(bào)效家鄉(xiāng)。由此推知他是一個(gè)有抱負(fù)的人。根據(jù)第二段中的Keresettledon...dependingonthehouroftheday.

(Kere采用了一種方法，用混凝土加固當(dāng)?shù)刂圃斓恼惩链u，并創(chuàng)建了一個(gè)浮動(dòng)的雙層屋頂系統(tǒng)，使熱空氣從建筑中升起，冷空氣進(jìn)入。彩色的百葉窗可以讓老師根據(jù)一天中的不同時(shí)間將陽(yáng)光照進(jìn)房間。）可知，在修建GandoPrimarySchool時(shí)他用了獨(dú)特的、可持續(xù)的設(shè)計(jì)。由此推知，他是一個(gè)有創(chuàng)造性的人。故選D。

8~11.【答案】C、C、B、D【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。公元9——11世紀(jì)草皮屋因其容易獲得且持久而大量出現(xiàn)，1918年冰島的民族浪潮影響到它們的存在?，F(xiàn)在，草皮屋和自然景觀融為一體，成為冰島靚麗的風(fēng)景。

據(jù)第一段中的Unliketheirpreviouswarmandwetclimate,woodwasrareandslowtoregenerate.Turf(草皮)becametheirfirstpicktomakeshelters.（與之前溫暖潮濕的氣候不同，木材稀少，再生緩慢。草皮成了他們的首選。）和第二段中的AcrossEurope,turfbricks—widelyavailable—werecutfromlocalbogs(沼澤)andtransportedforuseathigherlands.（在整個(gè)歐洲，草坪磚——隨處可見——是從當(dāng)?shù)氐恼訚芍星懈钕聛?lái)的，然后運(yùn)到更高的地方使用。）和Turfwallswerereplacedasfrequentlyasevery20years,andevenupto70years.（草坪墻每20年更換一次，甚至每70年更換一次。）可知，在過去人們用草皮修建房屋，是因?yàn)椴萜と菀撰@得且持久。故選C。

2.

根據(jù)第三段中的In1918IcelandgainedindependencefromDenmark,settinginmotionawaveofnationalismthatthreatenedthesurvivalofturfhouses.（1918年，冰島脫離丹麥獲得獨(dú)立，引發(fā)了一股民族主義浪潮，威脅到草皮屋的生存。）可知，民族浪潮的直接影響是導(dǎo)致草皮屋幾乎無(wú)法繼續(xù)存在。故選C。

3.

根據(jù)最后一段中的YoumightstillseeanoccasionalgrassroofbutthathaseverythingtodowitharchitectureandIcelanderswantingtoholdontotheirbelovedheritageratherthananyneedforturfasinsulation(隔熱)material.（你可能偶爾還會(huì)看到草屋頂，但這與建筑和冰島人想要保留他們心愛的遺產(chǎn)有關(guān)，而不是需要草皮作為隔熱材料。）推知，草皮屋會(huì)繼續(xù)存在，因?yàn)楸鶏u人想要保留他們心愛的遺產(chǎn)。故選B。

4.

通讀全文可知，本文介紹公元9——11世紀(jì)草皮屋因其容易獲得且持久而大量出現(xiàn)，1918年冰島的民族浪潮影響到它們的存在。現(xiàn)在，草皮屋和自然景觀融為一體，成為冰島靚麗的風(fēng)景。再結(jié)合第一段的“InIceland,thesegreenhousesmeltintothenaturallandscape,atechniquethatfirstappearedwiththearrivalofBritishsettlersduringthe9ththrough11thcenturies.(在冰島，這些綠色的房子與自然景觀融為一體，這種技術(shù)在9世紀(jì)至11世紀(jì)英國(guó)移民到來(lái)時(shí)首次出現(xiàn))”可知，D項(xiàng)“冰島的草皮房屋與自然和諧相處”可以作為本文最佳標(biāo)題。故選D。

12~15.【答案】B、D、A、D【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章講述了混泥土是地球上最多產(chǎn)的人造材料，它的產(chǎn)生給人類帶來(lái)了好處，但也有一些環(huán)境問題。文章也提出了解決混泥土產(chǎn)生碳排放的方法。

1.

根據(jù)第二段中的mostimportantly,cement(水泥)toglueitaltogether,isresponsiblefor7percentofglobalCO2emissions,leavingahugecarbonfootprint.（最重要的是，將其粘合在一起的水泥，占全球二氧化碳排放量的7%，留下了巨大的碳足跡。）可知，構(gòu)成混泥土重要的成分之一——水泥，會(huì)排放二氧化碳，對(duì)環(huán)境有影響，故選B。

2.

根據(jù)第三段中的CarbonCureiskindofthebrainsofthetechnology...aretrappedforever,beforetheyevenreachouratmosphere.（碳療是技術(shù)的大腦。這項(xiàng)創(chuàng)新在混凝土混合的過程中把二氧化碳加入到混凝土中。當(dāng)混凝土變硬時(shí)，那些本來(lái)有害的排放物甚至在進(jìn)入我們的大氣層之前就被永遠(yuǎn)截留了。）可知，CarbonCure把碳在排放之前截留了，故選D。

3.

根據(jù)第四段中的Ifwecanreduce5percent...whichisthesameastaking150millioncarsofftheroadeveryyear.（如果我們能減少混凝土行業(yè)5%的碳足跡，那將是一個(gè)巨大的改變。最終，如果這項(xiàng)技術(shù)在全球范圍內(nèi)應(yīng)用，我們每年可以減少大約7億噸的二氧化碳，這相當(dāng)于每年減少1.5億輛汽車。）可知，作者通過比較前后的變化來(lái)論證CarbonCure給我們帶來(lái)的好處。故選A。

4.

根據(jù)第三段中的Whatiftherewasawaythatinsteadofreleasingcarbondioxide,concretecouldtrapitforever?（有沒有一種方法可以讓混凝土永遠(yuǎn)困住二氧化碳，而不是釋放二氧化碳呢？）可知，文章通過引出問題到中間提出解決方法，主要是告訴讀者我們可以解決混泥土碳排放的方法。故選D。
