If the Dakota Access Pipeline(输油管道) is completed, it will carry nearly half a million bar-rels of oil across four states every day. Energy Transfer Partners (ETP), a Texas-based company behind the $ 3.8 billion project, hopes to finish construction this year. But the Standing Rock Sioux, an American Indian tribe( 部落), is determined to stop the 1,172-mile pipeline from being built. (76)Both sides show no signs of backing down.

The Dakota Access Pipeline was announced in 2014. A section of it will run near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. A reservation is an area of land set aside for American Indians. The tribe says the construction threatens to destroy historical areas and ancient burial sites. They also say the pipeline could pollute their main water source, the Missouri River. In April, the Standing Rock Sioux began a protest against the project. They camped at the construction site. Since then, thou-sands of people, including people from American Indian tribes, have traveled to the site to join the protest.

ETP says that the pipeline will have built-in safety measures to protect against oil leaks. Work-ers will also monitor it remotely, and will be able to close valves (阀) within three minutes if leaks are detected.

American Indians have been staging a nonviolent protest for months. The protest took a turn last week when police were called to keep the peace between protesters and armed security guards hired by the company.

Twenty-eight people have been arrested since then and charged with interfering with the pipeline construction.

11.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

A.The Dakota Access Pipeline will create more markets for oil and gas.

公司期望在今年内完成输油管道建设”，第三句“立岩苏族决定要中止1172英里长的输油管道的修建”，第四句“双方都没有妥协的迹象”可知双方矛盾所在。A项“达科塔输油管道将为原油和天然气创造更多市场”;B项“达科塔输油管道将创造更多就业机会”;D项“美国印第安人为平等投票权而战”在文中均没有提及。故选C。

As the National Park Service celebrates its 100th anniversary(周年纪念), President Barack Obama has announced the establishment of one new national monument, and the expansion(扩大)of another. In Maine, more than 87,500 acres of forest will become government-protected parkland for the first time. In Hawaii, a national monument created by President George W. Bush in 2006 will expand to about 582,578 square miles, four times its current size.

Obama has now created or enlarged 26 national monuments during his presidency. As a result,his administration says, Obama has protected more of the nation' s land than any other president has. But some residents and officials, in both Maine and Hawaii, object to the plans. (78)They say their local economies depend on the use of these areas.

In establishing this monument, Obama took the side of conservationists ( 自然资源保护者)who want laws to protect wild lands. Creating a national park usually requires the approval of Con-gress. But a 1906 federal law allows the president to establish national monuments on his own.

The land' s new status as a monument means that mining and drilling operations are forbidden there. (79)It may also severely limit activities such as logging, road-building, and hunting. Some of Maine' s politicians who want to protect the state' s logging industries say Obama should not have acted alone. They say Washington should not tell the states how to use their land, especially when people' s jobs are at stake. Maine politician Susan Collins said the president should have listened to Maine lawmakers and residents, as well as to the U. S. Congress before making his decision.

However, those who support the president' s decision say the establishment of the new monu-ment will lead to new jobs through tourism.

Toronto' s third City Hall, now known as Old City Hall, was designed by Edward James Len-nox and declared open on Sept.18,1899.

Created to provide more space for city officials, it turned out to be the largest building in the city and the largest city building in North America at the time.

Lennox took three years to design the City Hall and it took 11 years to build it. Contemporaries believe that the odd carvings (雕刻) above the Queen Street entrance were actually caricatures(漫画) of councilors at the time.

Lennox even included himself in the caricatures, on the west side of the central arch ( 拱门 ),and left a strange signature in the stonework of the link portions of the building.

The third City Hall was originally used as councilors' offices and legal offices, but it is used only as a courthouse today.

When the fourth City Hall (the one we know today) was declared open in 1965, Old City Hall was threatened to be pulled down. It was saved by a group of people called the "Friends of Old City Hall. "

The clock tower stands parallel with the middle of Bay Street, rather than with the center of the building. The bells in the tower were not installed until the building opened. Old City Hall was declared a historical site in 1989.

(80) The entire structure cost more than $ 2.5 million to build at the time. This is equal to $ 53 million today.

A.the 18th century

B.the 19th century

The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a larger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Gover-nor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will become the second state, after Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other tobacco products. More than 100 cities in the U. S., inclu-ding New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.

A week ago, the Caiifomia Assembly approved the measure, which--in addition to raising the age limit--treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products, expands smoke-free areas, in-creases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly' s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased the age to buy tobacco products to 21.

California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying (游说)from tobacco interests. The meas-ure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in po-licing people' s personal choices. "I don' t smoke. I don' t encourage my children to," said Re-publican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. "But they' re adults, and it' s our job to treat our citizens as adults. "

But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legally purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. " This will save the medical system millions of dollars," said Democratic Assemblyman Jim Wood. ( 76 ) "It will save thousands of lives. " A 2015 study by the Institute of Medicine "found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nation-wide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today' s teens reached adulthood. In addi-tion, there would be 223,000 fewer premature ( 过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer. "

26.Which of the following is the first state to raise smoking age to 21?

A.California.

B.Hawaii.

C.New York.

D.Washington.

答案：B

解析：【定位】第一段第三句话“…California will become me second stme，after Hawaii，to raise the age lirnjt for buying cigarettes alld otller tobacco products.”。

细节题。题干问的是“哪个是第一个提高吸烟年龄到21岁的州?”根据定位句“加州将成为继夏威夷之后第二个提高购买香烟和其他烟草产品合法年龄的州”可以推断加州是第二个州，而夏威夷是第一个州，故选B。

27.The California law includes all the following measures EXCEPT__________.

A.enlarging no-smoking areas

B.allowing counties .to collect higher taxes on cigarettes

C.increasing smoking bans

D.punishing parents who encourage their children to smoke

答案：D

解析：【定位】第二段第一句话“…treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products，ex-pallds smoke-free areas，increases smoking bans and allows counties to collect lligher taxes…”。

细节题。题干问的是“下列哪项规定不在加州法律范围内?”定位句指出加州法律范围内有四条附加规定，分别是将电子香烟视为与烟草产品同等的存在，扩大了禁烟区的范围(A项)，提高了禁烟令(C项)，并且允许各镇对香烟征收高税(B项)。由此可知，D项“对鼓励孩子抽烟的父母进行惩罚”不属于加州法律范围。故选D。

28.The word policing in Paragraph 3 probably means__________.

A.enriching

B.controlling

C.understanding

D.protecting

答案：B

解析：【定位】第三段第二句话“…who said the state should not be involved in policing people’s personal choices.”。

词汇题。题干问的是“第三段中的policing的意思是?”根据定位句“…州政府不应policing人们的个人选择”可知，policing和政府行为有关，即用政策(policy)进行干涉和控制。A项“丰富”;B项“控制”;C项“了解”;D项“保护”。只有B项符合句意，故选B。

29.Who is against the bill?

答案：【高分范文】

Computer Games

As for the influence of computer games on the young, different people hold different opinions. For some people, they think that computer games have brought many negative effects. The students indulge themselves so deeply in the games that they lag behind in school work. Young people usually lack enough self-control, so computer games lead them to the wrong direction.

Other people look on the bright side of computer games. Many young people believe that the fanciful and colorful world in the games helps them develop their creativity and competence in logical and tactical thinking. In addition, most computer games require team work, which will promote the youngsters' team spirit.

From my point of view, the key question is how to help the young players avoid being influenced by the false images shown in the games. Therefore, effective measures should be conducted to guide the youth to take full advantage of computer games, such as setting restrictions on playing time, and putting emphasis on the positive effects of virtual games rather than the cruel and violent game scenes.
