Ireland
’
s
Achill
Island
has
always
been
a
popular
European
tourist
destination.
However, since April, the small island of just
2,600 residents
（居民）
has
gained
worldwide
fame
thanks
to
the
magical
return
of
a
beach
that
was
washed away over three
decades ago.
The
chain of events began in 1984 when residents of
Dooagh, one of the five
settlements on
the island, awoke to a surprising sight: their
beautiful sandy beach
had been washed
away by strong Atlantic storms. There were only
rocks and rock
pools left. For 34
years, only small amounts of sand returned to the
once unspoiled
shores. the
area
’
s tourism industry
slowly declined, and the handful of beachside
hotels, pubs, and restaurants gradually
closed as well.
The, around Easter last year, something
magical happened
—
an unusual
ten-
day tide blanketed the barren
300-meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of
soft golden sand. Scientists suspect
that the sand had been gathering offshore for
months and was transported to the beach
by the high winds and powerful waves.
The locals are delighted to
have their beach back, especially as it is
attracting
thousands of visitors
wishing to witness the power of nature,
with their own eyes.
However, Sean
Molloy, manager of Achill Tourism, cautions
against going into the
4
cold waters just yet,
saying,
“
Because of the sand
coming in, we don
’
tknow how
safe the beach is now because
currents
（洋流）
could be changed
and it
’
ll take a
little bit of
time.
”
He instead recommends
visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the
swimming to the dolphins that frequent
the area.
Interestingly, this is not the first
time Dooagh Beach has pulled a
disappearing
and
reappearing act. It disappeared in the 1890s, for
over 30 years, before returning in
1927. However, the locals are
optimistic that this time around, the beautiful
sand is
here to
stay.
24.
What has brought Achill Island
worldwide attention recently?
A. An unusual
storm.
C. The return of its
beach.
B. The decrease in
the number of residents.
D.
The building of a new tourist
destination.
25.
What happened to Dooagh in the past
three decades.
A. Tourism went down
gradually.
C. Storms
attacked frequently.
B. Restaurant developed
slowly.
D. Rock pools
disappeared completely.
26.
What does the
underlined word
“
barren
”
in Paragraph 3 probably
mean?
A.
Noisy.
B. Soft.
C. Bare
D. Golden.
27.
What should
tourists avoid according to Sean
Molloy?
A. Spoiling the
shores.
C. Playing with
dolphins.
B.
Getting into the rock pools.
D. Swimming near the
beaches.
C
I dropped out of college
after my freshman year. Three years later, I quit
a
dead-end job and returned college. I
saw school as my way out.
But I quickly found myself facing the
same roadblocks that had caused me to quit
before: I was confused with college-
level algebra and a heavy workload of reading and
writing assignment. Moreover, I was
unsure of my career direction. I was ready to drop
out again. Then a smartly-dressed woman
walked confidently to the front of my English
composition class.
“
Look at you! Look at each
and every one of you,
”
she
said.
“
You
’
re here to change your lives for the better.
And you
’
re going to make it!
”
I
can
’
tremember the rest of the
speech, but it changed the course of my
5
college career,
and my life.
Mrs. Smith didn
’
tknow me from any of the
other 40 faces in her classroom, but
I
felt she speaking directly to me. Having trouble
keeping up with the workload?
Break it
down into small pieces, and set up a schedule that
suits you. If college
algebra is too
difficult, drop back to introductory college math.
As for English
composition, she gave us
writing assignments we could relate to.
“
Go for the best,
kid. You
’
re worth
it,
”
she
’
d
say.
I graduated
from that college and went on to get my
bachelor
’
s degrees. Today,
as a college instructor, each fall when
I stand in front of a new class, I think of Mrs.
Smith and how much teachers can affect
their students. She
couldn
’
thave known it
when she gave that pep talk, but she
made a huge difference in my life.
28.
Why did the author want to quit school
again?
A. He wanted to return to hid
former job. B. He decided on his future career.
C. The academic pressure seemed
unbearable.
D. Many changes took place in his life.
29.
How did Mrs.
Smith help the author?
A. She made him
feel relaxed.
B. She helped
him with algebra.
D. She
brought him courage and faith.
C. She talked to him
directly.
30.
What can we infer about the author?
A.
He learnt be a
better teacher.
B.
He didn
’
tfinish
his college education.
C.
He became Mrs.
Smith
’
sfavorite student.
D.
He
didn
’
tunderstand the writing
assignments.
31.
What can be the best title for the
text?
A. Always believe in
yourself.
B. Never quit
before trying.
D. A lady
changed my life in time.
C. Experience is worth
valuing.
D
Flat Holm is
picturesque landmass located in Britain
’
s Bristol Channel. The
area
’
s
low energy
needs have therefore been fulfilled using old-
fashioned solar panels
6
（板）
and
a
diesel
generator
（柴油发电机）
.
The
beautiful
island
is
now,
however,
becoming
increasingly
popular
with
tourists
wishing
to
explore
the
rural
landscape and view the
island
’
s seabird
colonies.
Though
this is welcome news, meting the
island
’
s growing energy
needs
without damaging its environment
has a challenge. Flat Holm team leader Natalie
Taylor says,
“
It
’
s
really important that we have a really high
functioning system.
From an
environmental point of view, we want to reduce the
use of diesel generators
so that we can
have as small an ecological footprint as
possible
”
.
Fortunately, UK-based
startup Renovagen had the perfect solution. The
company
’
s Rapid
Roll Solar PV system consists of flexible solar
panels that can
be unrolled like a
carpet from a trailer
（拖车）
and
instantly put to work. According
to the
company, a small panel can provide 11kw of power
within two minutes.
The technology is the brainchild of
Renovagen
’
s Managing
Director John
Hingley, who came up with
the idea after seeing something used as a backup
battery
for mobile devices about five
years ago. In addition to being easy to unfold,
the rollable
panels are also more cost-
effective to transport. Hingley says,
“
Compared
with traditional rigid
panels, we can fit up to 10 times the power in
this size
container.
”
The solar panel
“
carpets,
”
laid on
the island in early October, are being used
to
provide
electricity to its pub and lighthouse. In addition
to providing power to remote
islands like Flat Holm,
Hingley hopes the Rapid Roll technology
will
be useful in
areas affected by natural disasters.
A
good example is Puerto
Rico,
where most
people have been without
electricity
lines.
since
Hurricane Maria destroyed the power
32.
What leads to
Flat Holm
’
s increasing
energy needs?
A. Its growing number of
tourists.
C. The damage to
its environment.
B. Its
remote location.
D. The
power system failure.
33.
Where does
the difficulty lie to increase energy supply to
Flat Holm?
A. Reusing diesel
generators.
B. Protecting
its environment.
