1、疫情相关疫情相关高考时文阅读高考时文阅读四篇四篇15 题 A.新冠病毒和血型； B.能检测新冠病毒的口罩； C.疫情期间万事皆可云； D. 2020 全球首个公共交通免费的国家 A A 血型的人比 O 血型的人更容易感染新冠病毒 People with Type A blood are significantly more likely to catch coronavirus than those with Type O, Chinese academics have found. The study in Wuhan also found those with Type A blood a
2、re more likely to die from COVID-19. In the general population Type O blood (34%) is more common than A (32%). However, among COVID-19 patients, people with Type O accounted for just 25%, whereas Type A made up 41%. People with Type O blood made up a quarter (25%) of deaths in the research. Normally
3、, Type O people make up 32 percent of people in Wuhan. The controversial correlation has yet to be scrutinised by other academics in peer review and the researchers are unable to explain why infection varies by blood type. Researchers in China assessed 2,173 people who had been diagnosed with the co
4、ronavirus, including 206 people who died after contracting the virus, from three hospitals in Hubei. Academics compared the data of the infected Wuhan patients with 3,694 non-infected people in the same region. Of the 206 patients in the study who died, 85 had type A blood, equivalent to 41 percent
5、of all deaths. In the healthy Wuhan population, a city of 11 million people, 34 percent of people are type A. People with Type A blood are significantly more likely to catch coronavirus than those with Type O, Chinese academics have found. 1 Which is the right percentage of people with type O blood
6、in the general population? A. 34% B.32% C. 25% D. 41% 2 According to the study in Wuhan, which group of people are more likely to infect COVID-19? A. People with type O blood. B. People with type A blood. C. People with type AB blood. D. People with type B blood. 3 Which statement is wrong according
7、 to the passage? A. Blood group O has a lower risk of death compared with non-O groups. B. Blood group A has a higher risk of death compared with non-A groups. C. People of blood group A might need more careful protection to avoid the possibility of infection. D. People of Blood group O should be mo
8、re careful to protect himself from being infected than those with type A blood. B 英国科学家研发检测新冠病毒口罩 Researchers hope to trial low-cost face masks that can detect whether someone has infectious coronavirus before they display any symptoms. Experts at the University of Leicester said if successful, the
9、method could simplify large-scale screening for the virus and curb the spread of Covid-19. The sampling masks will be adapted using 3D printed strips and can trap exhaled microbes in a 30-minute period. About 80,000 people so far have been infected with the disease worldwide. Scientists claim the ad
10、apted masks could allow large groups to be checked at once, which could help curb the spread of the virus and avoid long stays in quarantine. Mike Barer, professor of clinical microbiology at the university, said: Coronavirus is spread from the mouth, throat and respiration system of infected indivi
11、duals. This new approach is exciting because it could help us determine whether a person is infectious or not, even before symptoms of the virus have appeared. Measuring how much of the virus is breathed out by using the mask sampling approach will allow us to compare levels of the virus exhaled by
12、different individuals, and could help us focus control efforts on preventing spread. The mask can easily be processed in any standard virus diagnostic laboratory, he added. Adapted masks have previously been successfully used to screen patients for tuberculosis, researchers said. Initially the sampl
13、ing masks will be tested on patients with other respiratory infections and the results will then be compared to throat swab results. If that trial validates the new approach, researchers will then move on to using the masks in trials with the new coronavirus. It is expected to take between two to th
14、ree months to reach this stage. The university said if the sampling masks were manufactured on an industrial scale they could potentially cost pennies. 4. What do the scientists hope to do in order to curb the spread of COVID-19? A. They hope to find a new kind of face mask made of special material.
15、 B. They hope to test the adapted masks to help curb the spread of the virus. C. They hope to compare the adapted masks with the sampling masks. D. They hope to use the adapted masks to screen patients for all other disease. 5. What can we learn from what Mike Barer professor a clinical microbiology
16、 at the university said? A. The masks can be easily made in any lab. B. The masks have already been successfully used to curb the spread of COVID-19. C. The masks could help us determine whether a person is infected or not before symptoms of the virus have appeared. D. The sampling masks will be tes
17、ted on patients infected by COVID-19 at the very beginning. 6. How long will it take to move the new approach on to masks in trials to curb the spread of COVID-19? A. At least a year. B. Between two or three months. C. Only one month. D. More than half a year. 7. From the last paragraph,we know that
18、_. A. The sampling masks could be very expensive. B. The sampling masks could be very cheap. C. The sampling masks could be in short. D. The sampling masks could cost a penny. C 疫情期间万事皆可云 Gyms across China have been forced to close amid fears that they could help spread the virus. A number of gyms h
19、ave started classes online so their customers can keep fit from home. Lauren Hogan, General Manager for F45 in Shanghai, told the BBC that her gyms are offering workout sessions on WeChat, a popular messaging app in China. Every day my trainers have created a circuit-based workout depending on our p
20、rogramming. Theyve created a sheet of exercises and they are recording videos, but having fun with it too. Ms Hogan said there are groups in WeChat for customers where they can write in and tell other people they have completed the days exercise. She said the videos have helped people talk and know
21、that there is a resource for them, and customers have been appreciative. Weve had personal thank you messages and also messages in the group chats. People are happy and grateful that were taking the time to do it and show that we care. Other chains are following suit including Gravity Plus in Beijin
22、g. Aside from running online classes, it has also rented out gym equipment as an extra way of bringing in income, Reuters news agency reports. With nightclubs closed and music events cancelled for the foreseeable future, a number of DJs and clubs in China are turning to cloud clubbing. Cloud clubbin
23、g is where people can watch live DJ sets and send in messages to give them the feeling that theyre in a club. The cloud clubbing events usually take place on apps such as Douyin.

D 卢森堡成为全球首个公共交通免费国家 With a population of 602,000, Luxembourg is one of Europes smallest countries - yet it suffers from major traffic jams. But that could be about to change. As of March 1, 2020 all public
30、transport - trains, trams and buses - in the country is now free. The government hopes the move will alleviate heavy congestion and bring environmental benefits, according to Dany Frank, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Mobility and Public Works. Landlocked Luxembourg is one of the richest countri
31、es in Europe, with the highest per capita GDP in the European Union. Taking up 2,586 square kilometers, Luxembourg is roughly the size of Rhode Island. From the capital of Luxembourg City, Belgium, France and Germany can all be reached by car in half an hour. High housing costs, especially in Luxemb
32、ourg City, mean more than 180,000 of its workforce commute from those neighboring countries every day. Luxembourg is a very attractive place for jobs, explains Geoffrey Caruso, a professor at the University of Luxembourg and the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research specializing in land us
33、e and transportation. But its booming economy and high concentration of jobs have led to congestion issues, he says. In 2016, Luxembourg had 662 cars per 1,000 people, and driving is a primary means of transportation for commuters, according to a 2017 report by the Ministry of Sustainable Developmen
34、t and Infrastructure. That year, drivers in Luxembourg City spent an average of 33 hours in traffic jams. It fared worse than European cities Copenhagen and Helsinki, which have comparable population sizes to all of Luxembourg - yet drivers in both only spent an average of 24 hours in traffic. The g
35、overnment is putting up the cost of making it free, Frank says. The country at this very moment is in really good shape. We, the government, want the people to benefit from the good economy. Caruso is concerned that making transport free may unintentionally deter people who would normally walk or cy
36、cle in urban areas. Rather than walking 500 meters, you see a bus coming and you say, I (can) get on and travel 500 meters because its free, he says. He adds, however, that the new scheme can signal important changes ahead when it comes to Luxembourgs reliance on driving. 12. From the passage, we kn
37、ow that_. A. Many people in Luxembourg dont drive to work. B. Many people in Luxembourg go to work by taxi. C. People in Luxembourg dont have to pay when they take public transport after March 1 2020. D. People in Luxembourg dont have to pay when they take taxis. 13. Which is not the reason why the
38、government offer free public transport? A. The country is in really good shape. B. The government want the people to benefit from the good economy. C. The traffic jam is heavy. D.The government want to attract more tourists. 14.What is Caruso concerned when the public transport is free? A. The bus w
39、ill be crowded because of the free charge. B. No one will walk or cycle. C. No one will drive to work. D. Rather than walking or cycling people will take the bus because it is free. 15. What does the word landlocked mean in paragraph four? A. Surrounded entirely or almost entirely by population. B. Surrounded entirely or almost entirely by land. C. Land connected with a lock. D Land with a lock shape Keys: （1-5.ABDBC 6-10.BBBBB 11-15. ACDDB）
