As the temperature keeps rising, your cup of coffee will bee much more expensive, and it may also carry an aftertaste bitterer than usual, for all those workers in the coffee belt left without the means to make a living as conditions worsen. Not only that, but the economic effects will cost the West millions in increased foreign aid.(1)What does the underlined word adversely in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Coffee is the second most traded goods by developing nations, and the inability of producer nations to export it could cause dramatic chain reactions in their economies. Millions of people make a living in the production, processing, transport, and sale of coffee。 In Central America the average temperature has risen by a full degree Celsius since 1960. In Ethiopia the average temperature has increased by 1. 3 degrees. This increase is enough to have notable effects on the plants. In Tanzania the productivity per hectare of coffee has fallen by half since the 1960s due to changes in temperature. The report, put out by The Climate Institute, describes the effects of climate change on various coffeegrowing nations and the resultant effects on the plants and those who grow them. 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇文化類(lèi)閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。因此它挑戰(zhàn)人類(lèi)的能力。 (4)考查推理判斷。ve learnt from parkour is freedom.”可知蘊(yùn)含的另一個(gè)哲理是自由。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。畫(huà)線部分over obstacles on the over all the barriers in the path意思一致,指跨越路上的障礙。根據(jù)第三段中的“that39。s wonderful performances that the sport has bee popular worldwide.”可知因?yàn)镴ames Bond在電影Casino Royale中的精彩跑酷表演使得這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)在全世界流行,故選D。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。. founder, David Belle varieties of participants risks and tricks film, Casino Royale(2)The underlined word obstacles in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ve learnt from parkour is freedom.
