arents relate to their children. Parents who show an interest in the things that matter to their kids and respond to emotions in a positive and caring way are teaching the skill of empathy. Meet Emotional Needs—When children have their emotional needs met, two things happen. They learn how to meet the emotional needs of others and they are anchored in what they are receiving, meaning that they are secure enough to give to others when the need arises but first they need to receive. An empty jug cannot fill a cup. It39。s a good idea to talk to kids about emotions and how other people experience them. Give their emotions names (for example, jealousy, anger, and love) and teach them that these are normal. Talk to them about how to handle emotions in a positive way and point out situations where other people are experiencing emotions. Teach them about respecting the emotions of others and show them how to act in a situation where a response is required.(1)Why is it that the next generation are taught to have empathy? A.Because people tend to center themselves.B.Because everyone lacks empathy.C.Because empathy is a strange quality.D.Because it39。s better to give than to receive.(2)Which situation can empathy be used in? a mathematician is calculating the area of a farmland. a teacher is forting a student about his failure in exams. a criminal is cheating a victim. a dancer is dancing to music.(3)What does the underlined sentence An empty jug cannot fill a cup mean? empty jug is too small to hold a cup.39。s a must to talk to kids about emotions. should set an example to kids. give empathy with their emotional needs met first.(4)What is the main topic of the passage? to train kids to have empathy. to distinguish sympathy and empathy. to help kids finish empathyrelated tasks. kids can be trained to be more empathetic.【答案】 (1)A(2)B(3)D(4)A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,在一個(gè)強(qiáng)調(diào)自我滿(mǎn)足的世界里,我們更有理由教導(dǎo)下一代,對(duì)周?chē)娜吮в型硇囊馕吨裁础M瑫r(shí)說(shuō)明了同理心的含義,以及如何培養(yǎng)孩子的同理心。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的”In a world where selfsatisfaction is emphasized, it is in short supply but high demand.

Carbon capture isn39。t new, but previous methods call for the gas to be pressed into liquid and then injected underground. Widespread usage of that technology has been locked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study published in Nature Communications, the group details their sustainable and costeffective plan for transforming CO2 into coal. This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst(催化劑)that is efficient in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is dissolved in a container with some liquid. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored. What makes this particularly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previous experiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperature, which made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further when it es to carbon storage. In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode(焊條), which opens up a world of possibilities. A side benefit of the process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, being a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in future vehicles, explains Dr. Dorna Estrafilzadeh, a researcher. The process also produces fuel as a byproduct, which could also have industrial applications.(1)What can we know about the previous carbon capture methods? A.People have to inject liquid to the gas.B.The previous methods can be done easily.C.The previous methods are not very popular.D.People have widely accepted previous methods.(2)What is the special part of the new method? A.It needs electricity to make the process efficient.B.It can be done in any kind of container.C.It doesn39。t need extreme temperature.D.It can produce much solid carbon.(3)What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.The method will make fossil oil disappear.B.The method will influence the future industry.C.The method will make developed countries more powerful.D.The method will be used to make new vehicles.(4)What is the best title for the passage? A.How to change carbon into CO2.B.A new carbon capture technology.C.A new technology to get useful carbon.D.Australia makes the world cleaner than before.【答案】 (1)C(2)C(3)B(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了一種新的碳捕獲技術(shù)的原理,優(yōu)點(diǎn)和對(duì)未來(lái)工業(yè)的影響。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Widespread usage of that technology has been locked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks.”可知之前技術(shù)的廣泛應(yīng)用受到了經(jīng)濟(jì)和環(huán)境方面的限制。故選C。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“What makes this particularly unique is that
