on the community．In order to“reduce the carbon footprint，”Stewart planned to produce enough solar energy to power the school’s science labs．Now his plan is set to happen．The installation of 30 solar panels is scheduled for late January．As he began his research on solar energy，he discovered a useful phone app．By entering an address，he could find out how much sunlight the location receives each day．Based on how much sunlight it receives，Stewart found that his school building was the desired position．At the suggestion of his science teacher，Debbie Wheeler，Parker first performed all energy audit(测算)of the science lab to see how much energy a typical lab uses per day．Then，he started his research，contacting a local installer of solar panels，Synergy Home，to do the job．Parker lacked money for launching the proj ect，so he convinced Sayre’s head of school to fund him after explaining the benefits of solar power for the school and community．Since Sayre provided the initial seed money to provide supplies and the purchase of one panel，the project has grown to include a total of 30 panels．They are expected to generate enough energy to run all four of the science labs on campus．“It feels like a dream to think that an idea I had resulted from my AP Environmental class would have this kind of impact，”said Stewart，expressing gratitude for Wheeler’s help．Wheeler said the success of the project was due to Parker’s efforts and willingness to follow through on the project from start to finish．“I've had other students talk about environmental initiatives on campus，but Parker had the persistence to make it happen，”she said．4．How did the app help Stewart start his project?A．To find an ideal location．B．To conduct an energy audit．C．To look up specific information．D．To introduce financial aids．5．Who invested in Stewart’s project at the beginning?A．Sayre Schoo1．B．His parents．C．Synergy Home．D．His community. 6．What inspired Stewart to do his solar power project?A．The phone app he discovered．B．The air pollution in his community．C．A suggestion from his science teacher．D．An idea from his Environmental class．7．What contributed to Stewart’s success according to Wheeler?A．His wisdom．B．His bravery．C．His willpower．D．His independence．CRescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday’s powerful earthquake in Mexico．Fifteen dogs from the navy’s canine(军犬)unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City，where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins．Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida，a six-year-old white Labrador who in her distinguished service has won praise for her ability to detect people who have been trapped by various natural disasters．Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries．This week，Frida and Evil and Echo—two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rébsamen School in southern Mexico City．Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke，boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins，Frida took to her work looking every bit the part of the ruins．If Frida detects the presence of a survivor，she is trained to bark to alert rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before proceeding，her handler explained．Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them．However，that hasn’t stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and reaching a new level of fame this week．Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online．While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week，she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly，searching through spaces that humans cannot reach．With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive，time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record．8．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．Severe earthquakes in Mexico B．Undertaking rescue workC．People wating for rescue D．Special rescuers in Mexico9．What makes Frida a social media star?A．Her rescue records and tireless work．B．Her cooperation with the rescue team．C．Her cool appearance with some special devices．D．Her ability to search spaces beyond humans’reach．10．What does the underlined word“corpse”in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．An article of clothing．B．An unconscious animal．C．A dead person．D．A special signal．11．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that______．A．Frida will achieve nothing B．Frida will probably work miracles C．more dogs will be sent to the area D．the rest of the rescue will be done by dogsDHybrid cars，also called hybrid electric vehicles(HEVs)，al e cars that use more than one source of energy to run．They differ from the majority of cars on the road today in several ways．The main difference is that HEVs run on gasoline and electricity．An HEV car has a battery-powered motor as well as an engine that runs on gasoline．A hybrid car is a bit more expensive to produce than a regular car even though its engine is smaller．The reason for the greater expense is that the engine is more complex．It has specialized mechanisms that allow it to operate using gasoline and electric power．It also contains a computer that works differently from those of regular cars．Even though it is more expensive to purchase，it costs less to own than gas-powered cars．When an HEV car is at a stoplight or going at a speed below 15 miles per hour，its special computer tells it to run just on electric power．When the computer senses that the car needs more power，it puts the gasoline engine back to work．The computer is constantly deciding whether the car will use electricity，gas，or a combination of the two．Because the HEV has electric power to help it run，it uses much less fuel than most cars．In fact hybrid cars are the most fuel-efficient cars that exist today．They can get from 50 to 60 miles per gallon on average．The high mileage saves money for the car owner and conserves precious supplies of petroleum．Hybrid cars help the environment in other ways too．For example，when the HEV is using electric power，it does not send out poisonous smoke that pollute the air．Despite the differences between hybrid cars and regular cars，HEVs offer the same feel as regular cars．They handle the same way and speed up and stop in the same way too．HEVs，though，are generally smaller than gasoline-powered cars．Their rounded，aerodynamic frame helps add to their fuel efficiency but unfortunately does not add to the amount of space inside the vehicle．12．Which statement best explains the characteristics of an HEV?A．Safe and reliable．B．Expensive but long-lasting．C．Smaller engine，greater power．D．High price，low carbon．13．The transformation between the gasoline and electricity in an HEV is operated by____．A．the engine B．the baaery C．the computer D．the driver 14．For what purpose was the HEV invented?A．To save energy．B．To provide better service．C．To lower the expense of purchase．D．To give the drivers a different feeling．15．Where does the passage probably come from?A．A health report．B．A science magazine．C．A vehicle advertisement．D．A travel journal．第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
