Question

    Global（全球的）warming is a big problem now. One of the best things to stop it is to plant more trees. Trees can take in CO₂ in the air. China is doing a great job of "greening" the world. A team of scientists at Boston University used a special camera and found that the global leaf area had increased by 5 percent since the early 2000s. And China was responsible for 25% of that. For example, since 1962, China has planted trees in Saihanba, Hebei Province. It was once a desert. But now, China has turned this place into the country's largest man—made forest.

Ant Forest, a program in Alipay app, also plays a part of planting trees. It gives users points for doing eco—friendly activities on the Alipay platform（平台）to encourage people to live a low—carbon（低碳）life. The activities include walking instead of driving, paying on Alipay, buying tickets online, taking buses or subways and so on. Users can use these points to water and grow their own virtual（虚拟的）trees. When the virtual trees are big enough, Ant Forest will plant real trees somewhere in China. More than 55 million trees have been planted in this way. Ant Forest is very popular with online users. Now 230 million people are planting virtual trees on their mobile phones. It is believed that everyone wants to protect the environment. Ant Forest uses technology to make it come true.

【解析】

本文讲述了现在全球变暖是个大问题。最好的办法之一就是种更多的树，树木可以吸收空气中的二氧化碳。中国在“绿化”世界方面做得很好。波士顿大学的一组科学家使用了一种特殊的照相机，发现自2000年以来，全球树叶面积增加了5%。中国占了其中的25%。蚂蚁森林利用技术来实现它，蚂蚁森林很受网络用户的欢迎。

1.细节理解题。根据“One of the best things to stop it is to plant more trees”最好的办法之一就是种更多的树，故选A。

2.细节理解题。A. global warming can't be stopped全球变暖是无法阻止的；B. there is less and less green land on the earth地球上的绿地越来越少了；C. China has had more leaf areas since 2000s自2000年以来，中国的森林面积增加了；根据“found that the global leaf area had increased by 5 percent since the early 2000s. And China was responsible for 25% of that”发现自2000年以来，全球森林面积增加了5%。中国占了其中的25%，故选C。

3.细节理解题。根据“ The activities include walking instead of driving, paying on Alipay, buying tickets online, taking buses or subways and so on.”这些活动包括走路而不是开车，在支付宝上付款，在网上买票，乘坐公共汽车或地铁等等，故选A。

4.推理判断题。A. More and more people use Ant Forest.越来越多的人使用蚂蚁森林；B. Ant Forest grows real trees for users.蚂蚁森林为使用者种植真正的树木；C. People grow real trees on Ant Forest.人们在蚂蚁森林中种植真树；根据“When the virtual trees are big enough, Ant Forest will plant real trees somewhere in China.”当虚拟树足够大的时候，蚂蚁森林就会在中国的某个地方种植真正的树。故选B。
