The world's longest and most demanding competition is underway as competitors adventure 36,000 miles around the planet on sailboats. The race is intense--but it's not just about winning and glory. The sailors are also part-time citizen scientists competing on boats outfitted with tools that gather data on how climate change is impacting the world' s oceans.
The sailing competition, called The Ocean Race, started in January. Those competing started
in Spain, then raced down the coast of Africa before cutting across the Indian and Southern oceans to reach Brazil. They then headed up the eastern coast of the Americas before crossing the Atlantic Ocean to get to Denmark. This week, the teams will leave Denmark on the final two legs of the race, which ends in late June in Italy.
Each team is working to track how climate change is impacting the oceans, which are rapidly
warming from absorbing 90% of the excess (过量的) heat created by planet warming greenhouse
gas emissions (排放). Oceans provide about 50% of the oxygen humans breathe, making their health critical to human health.
The boats, which serve as high-speed laboratories, measure everything from sea surface temperatures to oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. The scientists onboard have also detected microplastics in nearly every sample they've taken so far. The data they collect is distributed worldwide.
The racers send all the data they collect to a satellite in real time, sharing 25 .000 data points
per day. The boats also go where few scientific missions travel, making the data they collect especially valuable. The third leg of the race was a 38-day sail through the Antarctic Ocean.
“I truly think the data is invaluable because it' s collecting information from parts of the ocean that we rarely have an opportunity to collect data from," said Jon Hare,a scientist for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
28. What does the underlined word“outfitted" in paragraph 1 mean
A. Equipped. B. Supplied. C. Presented. D. Satisfied.
29. Where will the race end
A In Spain. B. In India. C. In Brazil, D. In Italy.
30. What is special about the data
A It is related to endangered species. B. It covers some from remote areas,
C. It is analyzed in high-speed labs, D. It is mainly collected by satellites.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Training part-time citizen scientists at sea. B. An exploration of the habitats of sea life.
C. Collecting climate data around the world D. A sailing competition around the Antarctic.

Olympic Games organizers in France presented the 2024 Olympic torch (火炬) that will light
the Summer Games in the country a year from now. In the Olympic torch tradition, many people
carry the torch in turn from Greece to the current location of the Games. After it has traveled thousands of kilometers. the torch will light the Olympic cauldron (火炬台) at the Opening Ceremony of the next Olympic Games.
French designer Mathieu Lehanneur created the torch. which is 70 centimeters long and made of lightweight steel. Lehanneur said its shape is inspired by the famous Seine River ，which flows through Paris. He said the torch is equal from top to bottom and all around the middle.

The torch was made with lightweight steel. Its lower half copies the movement of the Seine,
along which the opening ceremony will take place for over 500 ,000 viewers.
Lehanneur said he wants the torch to represent the kind of event that Paris 2024 hopes to be.“I wanted to move away from the torch appearing as an object of conquest (征服) ,”Lehanneur said. He also told reporters that designing the torch was much more techn1cal than he thought it would be“The magic is not the torch itself. but the flame Lehanneur said.
The torch will be lit up in Olympia, Grecce on April 16. 2024, followed by a nine day torch relay before sailing across the Mediterranean Sea from Athens to Marseille on May 8. It will then pass through several important places , which include Strasbourg , the Pantheon in Paris, the Mont Saint-Michel and multiple French territories.
Tony Estanguet, the Paris 2024 chief, said the torch is “very ,very beautiful”. He also said it is “...very pure, It's perfectly balanced in the hand.”
32. Why is the torch equal from top to bottom
A It is easy for torch-bearers to carry. B. It is the symbol of the Seine River.
C. It represents peace among nations. D. It shows equality between players.
33. What can be inferred from Lehanneur's words
A. He wishes Paris 2024 to be the best ever. B. The torch is more important than the flame.
C. Designing the torch is harder than he thinks. D. He thinks highly of the torch’s appearance.
34. How long will it take the torch to travel from Greece to France

35. Where is the text most probably taken from

Once upon a time, there was a small village in the heart of a big jungle on a land far away. Surrounded by mountains and in the shade of green trees, the villagers lived a happy life. All of them were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them had the imagination or the will to try something new,except for one girl named Hannah,
Hannah was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the woods looking for new things. She loved to create stories in her head and used to imagine herself as one of her characters. One afternoon, when Hannah was on one of her adventures, she came upon an abandoned cottage. The cottage looked very old in its condition. The door was barely hanging and the wood was chipping away. Even though Hannah's mother had strictly warned her not to go wandering in abandoned places , her curiosity got the best of her. She tip-toed (蹑手蹑脚) slowly to the door and slowly opened it and she was left shocked.In front of Hannah was a room full of books! Books shining in the dust, basking in the warm sunlight just waiting to be explored. Hannah' s excitement was visible on her face as she jumped up and down with joy!
Hannah became excited as she realized that she had found a hidden treasure. She knew in her heart that she had to read all of them so she quickly got to work. She dusted the books, the shelves,and what was left of the furniture. Hannah swept and dusted all day long until she realized that it was dark and she had to go back to her home. But she couldn't get herself to leave
without at least reading one. So Hannah picked two books and decided to read them at her home.
She met her friends on the way home who were curious about what Hannah was carrying. In
her excitement, Hannah shared everything with her friends. She was thinking that her friends will
share her excitement but instead, she heard roars of laughter!
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Hannah was confused by this reaction and a little hurt too, but she did not give up on her books.
She wanted to fire the curiosity and imagination in her friends.2024届云南省高三名校月考英语答案（一）-尚文原创
