【精选真题01】
（2022·河南中原名校联考）
Heat can kill. It lowers a worker’s ability to concentrate and leads to notable increases in workplace injuries, research suggests.
Yet, for reasons including financial need, workplace pressure and a lack of awareness of the health impacts of high temperatures, many people continue to work past their heat tolerance. Outdoor workers, notably those within the construction and agricultural industry, are the most affected by rising heat. Even the fittest people in the world are impressionable like the Olympic athletes collapsing in the baking heat of Tokyo.
There are some easy ways to reduce the risk of heat exhaustion (热衰竭). Optimizing work hours to avoid workers being out when the sun is at its hottest may have the greatest effect on employee health.
Individualized, wearable sensors could be a useful tool for determining likely heat exhaustion. Early adoption of these devices would be a win-win, according to Dr Jennifer Runkle, an environmental epidemiologist (流行病学家): boosting productivity and reducing injury “while ensuring the health and safety of an ageing workforce and reducing the risk of heat exhaustion”.
Wider take-up of wearable heat sensors by employees, employers and healthcare providers would also help overcome gaps in heat awareness.
faster怎么读?“One important finding we discovered in our research with outdoor workers is that there was a mismatch between workers ability to sense heat risk and their actual exposure to extreme heat gained by wearables” , said Dr Runkle.
Another aid could be wearable cooling technology, but such devices are limited in availability. One such device is Sony’s Reon Pocket 2, which it launched in April. A wearable cooling or warming device worn inside clothing, it uses electrical conductors that transfer (转移) heat when electricity is run through them.
There are promising examples of companies taking more responsibility for protecting workers from extreme heat, such as managers of bus drivers in Jinan, China. Responsible employers should be providing drinks and shaded rest areas to outdoor workers.
8. What does the underlined word “impressionable” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Highly impressive.    B. Slightly sensible.    C. Easily influenced.    D. Hardly evaluated.
9. What did Dr Runkle find out?
A. The workforce was ageing rapidly.
B. Wearable heat sensors lacked great accuracy.
C. Employers attached little importance to heat exhaustion.
D. Workers’ heat awareness and actual heat were different.
10. Why are bus drivers in Jinan mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To stress the popularity of Reon Pocket 2.
B. To show their employers are responsible.
C. To reveal they are very tolerant of extreme heat.
D. To describe their unbearable pressure of work.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Adjustments to Work Hours Can Be Life-saving.
B. Campaigners Are Calling for Workplace Protection.
C. How Can New Technology Protect Outdoor Workers?
D. How Were Body Temperature Monitors Invented?
【答案】8. C    9. D    10. B    11. C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是减少户外工作的员工中暑风险的两种新技术。
【解析】
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段的“Outdoor workers, notably those within the construction and agricultural industry, are the most affected by rising heat.(户外工作人员，尤其是建筑业和农
业行业的工作人员，受高温影响最大。)”可知，划线词所在句子的意思是“即使是世界上最健康的人也容易受影响，就像奥运会运动员在东京的高温中倒下一样”，划线词impressionable的意思是“容易受影响”，和Easily influenced意思相近，故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的““One important finding we discovered in our research with outdoor workers is that there was a mismatch between workers ability to sense heat risk and their actual exposure to extreme heat gained by wearables” , said Dr Runkle.(朗克尔博士说:“我们在对户外工作者的研究中的一个重要发现是，工作者感知热风险的能力与他们实际接触到的可穿戴设备带来的极端高温之间存在不匹配。”)”可知，Dr Runkle发现工人的热意识与实际热情况不同。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“There are promising examples of companies taking more responsibility for protecting workers from extreme heat, such as managers of bus drivers in
Jinan, China.(在保护员工免受酷暑伤害方面，有一些公司承担更多责任的例子，比如中国济南公交车司机的管理人员。)”可知，最后一段提到济南的公交车司机是为了显示他们的雇主是负责任的。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段的“Individualized, wearable sensors could be a useful tool for determining likely heat exhaustion.(个性化的可穿戴传感器可能是确定可能的中暑衰竭的有用工具。)”和倒数第二段的“Another aid could be wearable cooling technology, but such devices are limited in availability.(另一种帮助可能是可穿戴冷却技术，但这种设备的可用性有限。)”可知，本文主要讲的是减少户外工作的员工中暑风险的两种新技术，因此最好的标题是C选项“How Can New Technology Protect Outdoor Workers?(新技术如何保护户外工作者？)”，故选C。
