old
military(
军队的<
/p>
)medals
for
sale
in antique stores and on the unlike
most collectors, Zac tracks down
the
medals
’
rightful owners, and
returns them.
His effort to reunite
families with lost medals
began with a
Christmas gift from
his mother, a
Purple Heart with the name Corrado A. G. Piccoli,
found in an antique
shop. Zac knows the
meaning of a Purple Heart-he earned one himself in
a war as a
soldier. So when his mother
gave him the medal, he knew right away what he had
to
do.
Through
the
Internet
Zac
tracked
down
Corrado
’
s
sister
Adeline
Rockko.
But
when
he finally reached her, the woman
flooded him with questions:
？
What
antique
shop
？
call.
So
she
called
Zac
back
and
apologized.
Soon
she
drove
to
meet
Zac
in
Watertown,
N.Y.
to come to see me.
The
Piccolis grew up the children of Italian
immigrants in Watertown. Corrado,
a
translator for the Army during WWII, was killed in
action in Europe.
Before hearing from
Zac, Adeline hadn
’
t realized
the medal was missing. Like
many
military medals, the one
Zac
’
s mother had found was a
family treasure.
,
medal
was
very
precious
to
my
parents.
Only
on
special
occasions(
场合
)would
they
take
it out and let us hold
it in our hands,
As a child, Adeline
couldn't understand why the medal was so
significant.
“
But
as I grew older,
”
Adeline says,
that
was
the
only
thing
we
had
left.
Corrado
Piccoli
’
s
Purple
Heart
medal
now
hangs
at the Italian American Civic
Association in Watertown.
Zac recently
returned another lost medal to a family in
Alabama. Since he first
reunited
Corrado
’
s medal, Zac says
his record is now 5 for 5.
21. Where
did Zac get a Purple Heart medal for
himself
？
A. In
the army.
B. In an antique shop.
C. From his mother.
D. From
Adeline Rockko.
22. What did Zac
realize when Adeline drove to meet
him
？
A. She was
very impolite.
B. She was serious about
the medal.
C. She suspected his
honesty.
D. She came from a wealthy
family.
23. What made Adeline treasure
the Purple Heart?
A. Her
parents
’
advice.
B. Her knowledge of antiques.
C. Her childhood dream.
D. Her memory of her brother.

这是一篇
新闻报道。短文报道了上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站

解析】
词义猜测题。由第一段“
But at Union
Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went
up with dollar bills attached to it
with pins and a sign that read,
Can,
Take What You Need.
”可知，但是上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站，一
块牌子上别针别满
了美元，上面写着“给予你所能给与的，拿走你所需要的”
。所以通过下文的语境，判断出第
1
段中的
money with no strings attached
是
“无条件提供的钱”的意思。故
B
选项正确。
< br>
【
25
解析】
推理判断题。由第二段“
“

”可知，发起该项活动的泰勒·布里奇斯说
:
“所有年
龄、种族和社会经济背景
的人都会付出和索取。
”甚至有一位穿
着婚纱的新娘来到了牌子前，拿走了一些钱。所以通过
泰勒·布里奇斯所说的，可以判断
出，他提到新娘就是想说明这项活动吸引了各种各样的人。
故
B
选项正确。
【
26
解析】
细节理解题。由倒数第二段“
While the clip
might look like part of a new ad campaign,
Bridges said the only goal was to show
generosity and sympathy
”可知，尽管这段视
频看起来像是一项新的广告活动的一部分，但是布里奇斯说这次活动唯一的目标是表现出慷
慨和同情。所以布里奇斯实施这个活动是为了提倡仁慈和同情。故
D
选项正确。

California has lost half its big trees
since the 1930s, according to a study to
be published Tuesday and climate change
seems to be a major
factor(
因素
).
The
number of trees larger than two feet across has
declined by 50 percent on
more than 46,
000 square miles of California forests, the new
study finds. No area
was
spared
or
unaffected,
from
the
foggy
northern
coast
to
the
Sierra
Nevada
Mountains
to the San
Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high
country, the number of big
trees
has
fallen
by
more
than
55
percent;
in
parts
of
southern
California
the
decline
was nearly 75
percent.
Many
factors
contributed
to
the
decline,
said
Patrick
Mclntyre,
an
ecologist
who
was
the
lead
author
of
the
study.
Woodcutters
targeted
big
trees.
Housing
development
pushed
into
the
woods.
Aggressive
wildfire
control
has
left
California
forests
crowded
with small trees
that compete with big trees for
resources(
资源
).
But in comparing a study of California
forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with
another
one
between
2001
and
2010,
Mclntyre
and
his
colleagues
documented
a
widespread
death of big trees that was evident
even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or
development.
The
loss
of
big
trees
was
greatest
in
areas
where
trees
had
suffered
the
greatest
water shortage. The
researchers figured out water stress with a
computer model that
calculated
how
much
water
trees
were
getting
in
comparison
with
how
much
they
needed,
taking into account
such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness
of soil, and
the timing of
snowmelt(
融雪
).
Since the 1930s, Mclntyre said, the
biggest factors driving up water stress in
the state have been rising
temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water
to the
air, and earlier snowmelt, which
reduces the water supply available to trees during
the dry season.
27. What is
the second paragraph mainly about?
A.
The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.
B. The increasing variety of California
big trees.
C. The distribution of big
trees in California forests.
D. The
influence of farming on big trees in California.
28. Which of the following
is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?
A. Ecological studies of forests.
B. Banning woodcutting.
C.
Limiting housing development.
D. Fire
control measures.
29. What is a major
cause of the water shortage according to Mclntyre?
A. Inadequate snowmelt.
C. A
warmer climate.
B. A longer dry season.
D. Dampness of the air.
30.
What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. California's Forests: Where Have All
the Big Trees Gone?
B. Cutting of Big
Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon
C. Why Are the Big Trees Important to
California Forests?
D. Patrick
Mclntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California
