Ⅰ. 气候变化 Daniel认为全球变暖等气候问题是人类发展过程中不容忽视的、亟需解决的问题。而解决这个问题，每个人都需要付出努力。
（2024·重庆中考改编）①The world’s highest ski place, Chacaltaya, was closed after the 18,000 - year - old glacier melted(冰川融化) in 2009. Many scientists agree that the glaciers around the world could disappear in this century, much faster than we thought.
②As we all know, the reason for this is global warming. When certain gas such as carbon dioxide (CO₂) is largely emitted(排放) into the atmosphere, it causes the greenhouse effect(效应) which makes Earth warmer.
③As Earth becomes warmer, glaciers melt quickly, and dark rocks are uncovered. Then these rocks take in more heat, causing the temperature to rise. As a result, the remaining snow on glaciers melts faster.
④The effects of global warming will be far - reaching and often devastating(毁灭性的). While the melting of glaciers may flood some areas of Earth, in other places, it is making water disappear. An increasing number of heat waves and droughts(干旱) worldwide will also change the face of the world in the future.
⑤Global warming is a real problem, and one largely caused by human activity. Solving the problem is not easy, and there is no single magic way. However, we can begin it by lowering the amount of CO₂ in our daily lives.
⑥Peter Miller, along with his wife, took part in a scientific test to see how much CO₂ they could cut down in a month. The average(平均) USA household produces about 80 kilos of CO₂, which was more than twice the European average and almost five times the global average. Their final goal was to make less CO₂ than most American families.
⑦First, they found out how much CO₂ they were producing. Then they asked an expert for advice on how to reduce CO₂ emissions. According to the expert’s advice, they made some changes to their house, replaced their lights, and changed some of their living habits. At the same time, they either biked, walked, or used public transportation. A month later, they saved 70％ on electricity, 40％ on gas, and drove half as much as others. Their daily CO₂ emissions were less than the USA average, at 32 kilos.
⑧Protecting our planet starts small: change a light, open a window, walk or bike. With a little effort, and not much money, most of us can make a difference.
1. Why was the ski place, Chacaltaya, closed in 2009?
A. Because the ski place was too old.
B. Because few tourists came to this place.
C. Because the ski place was too high to reach.
D. Because the 18,000 - year - old glacier melted.

答案
1~3 DAB
[文章大意]本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了冰川融化、全球变暖的原因及影响，呼吁人们环保生活。
1. D 细节理解题。根据“The world's highest ski place, Chacaltaya, was closed after the 18,000 - year - old glacier melted in 2009.”可知，世界上海拔最高的滑雪场查卡塔雅因为冰川于2009年融化而关闭。故选D。
2. A 写作手法题。根据“A month later... at 32 kilos.”可知，作者通过列数字证明彼得在科学测试中成功了。故选A。
3. B 图示理解题。根据“As Earth becomes warmer, glaciers melt quickly, and dark rocks are uncovered. Then these rocks take in more heat, causing the temperature to rise. As a result, the remaining snow on glaciers melts faster.”可知，随着地球变暖，冰川迅速融化，深色岩石露出地面。然后这些岩石吸收更多的热量，导致温度上升。结果，冰川上剩余的雪融化得更快。故选B。
4. ①→②→③→④→⑤→⑥⑦→⑧ 分析文章内容可知，第一段介绍查卡塔雅滑雪场关闭这一事实；第二、三段介绍原因；第四段介绍全球变暖的影响；第五段建议我们可以从减少日常生活中的二氧化碳排放量开始，第六、七两段介绍彼得·米勒和他的妻子的科学测试，来佐证减少二氧化碳排放量是有帮助的，第八段建议人们保护地球从小事做起。
