4、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
The first-ever fine for space junk was issued in early October in a case of off-planet environmental enforcement (执法). The television company, Dish Network, was hit with a $125, 000 fine by the United States government for failing to remove a satellite in orbit that would have risked a collision (撞击) with other space equipment, a safety concern that will only grow with time as off-planet activities increase.
According to NASA, debris (碎片) orbiting in space can travel up to 15 kilometres per second, which is nearly 10 times faster than the velocity (速度) of a bullet. A huge amount of damage can be caused by something just a few centimetres in size, meaning that every effort must be taken to keep space as clear as possible. Collisions that take place in space have an effect back on Earth. Damaged satellites impact our ability to use the Internet and navigation (导航), leaving increasingly global critical infrastructure in an unstable state.
One solution for this may be to send autonomous space vehicles into orbit, which can then catch and effectively de-orbit space junk. By utilizing tools such as robotic arms, or nets, this approach will require very precise track and fine cooperation in order to be successful. Such measures are yet to catch up with the increase in space activity and pollution currently occurring. Therefore, fines and regulatory enforcement may presently be the only realistic method to hold organizations accountable.
The Dish Network satellite, fined $125, 000 by the Federal Communications Commission, failed to de-orbit as a lack of fuel stopped the satellite from fully decommissioning (退役) a safe distance from Earth, falling short by around 75 miles (120 kilometres). It is hoped that significant fines like these will serve as a warning for companies, forcing them to make sure the safe decommissioning of their space operations.
(1)、Why was Dish Network fined?A、It left space junk in orbit. B、It increased off-planet activities. C、It made collisions among space equipment. D、It sent too much space equipment to space.(2)、Why is it necessary to keep space clean?A、Space junk may turn into bullets. B、Debris fragments are too tiny to track. C、Debris may cause great damage in space. D、A bad space environment will destroy the Earth.(3)、 What is the third paragraph mainly about?A、The harm of space junk. B、Ways to remove space junk. C、Types of autonomous space vehicles. D、Approaches to stopping satellites.(4)、What's the author's attitude towards the fines?A、Unconcerned. B、Doubtful. C、Negative. D、Approving. -
5、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When lightning caused fires around California's Big Basin Redwoods State Park north of Santa Cruz in August 2020, the fire spread quickly. Mild fires strike coastal redwood (红杉) forests about every decade. The giant trees resist burning thanks to the bark (树皮), up to about 30 centimetres thick at the base, which contains acids. Their branches and needles are normally beyond the reach of flames. But this time flames shot through the top of 100-metre- tall trees, burning the needles. "It was shocking, " says Drew Peltier, a tree expert at Northern Arizona University. "It really seemed like most of the trees were going to die.
Yet many of them lived. In a paper published yesterday in Nature Plants, Peltier and his colleagues help explain why: The survivors use long-held energy reserves-sugars that had been made from sunlight decades earlier—and poured them into buds (芽) that had been lying dormant (休眠的) under the bark for centuries.
"This is one of those papers that challenges our previous knowledge on tree growth, " says Adrian Rocha, an ecosystem ecologist at the University of Notre Dame. "It is amazing to learn that carbon taken up decades ago can be used to sustain its growth into the future. "The findings suggest redwoods have the tools to cope with big fires driven by climate change, Rocha says. Still, it's unclear whether the trees could cope with the regular infernos that might occur under a warmer climate environment.
The fire in 2020 was so intense that even the top branches of many trees burned and their ability to photosynthesize (光合作用) went up in smoke along with their pine needles. Trees photosynthesize to create sugars and other carbohydrates (碳水化合物), which provide the energy they need to grow and repair tissue. Trees do store some of this energy, which they can call on during a drought or after a fire. Although the redwoods have sprouted (长出) new growth, Peltier and other forest experts wonder how the trees will cope with far less energy from photosynthesis, given that it will be years before they grow as many needles as they had before the fire. "They're alive, but I would be a little concerned for them in the future. "
(1)、What's special about this big fire for coastal redwood forests in 2020?A、It burnt the top of the trees. B、It was very close to the last fire. C、It resisted burning effectively. D、It caused relatively minor damage.(2)、Why did redwoods survive in the big fire?A、Sugars protected their barks. B、Energy reserves promoted the growth of buds. C、They got used to hot climate. D、They took in much carbon to resist fire.(3)、What does the underlined word "infernos" in the third paragraph mean?A、Unpredictable disasters. B、Changeable climate. C、Terrible environment. D、Uncontrollable fires.(4)、Why does Peltier worry about the survival of redwoods?A、Their tissues can't be repaired. B、They can't save energy anymore. C、Their energy saved is not sufficient. D、They grow too slowly. -

Mary Flannery O'Connor was born on March twenty-fifth, 1925, in the southern city of Savannah, Georgia. The year she was born, her father developed a rare disease called lupus (狼疮). He died of the disease in
1941. By that time the family was living in the small southern town of Milledgeville, Georgia, in a house owned by Flannery's mother.
Life in a small town in the American South was what O'Connor knew best. Yet she said, "If you know who you are, you can go anywhere. Many people in the town of Milledgeville thought she was different from other girls. She was kind to everyone, but she seemed to stand to one side of what was happening, as if she wanted to see it better. Her mother was her example. Her mother said, "I was brought up to be nice to everyone and not to tell my business to anyone.
Flannery also did not talk about herself. But in her writing a silent and distant anger explodes from the quiet surface of her stories. Some see her as a Roman Catholic (天主教的) religious writer. They see her anger as the search to save her moral being through her belief in Jesus Christ. Some see her not writing about things, but presenting the things themselves. She said, "I see the world from the perspective of Christianity. This means that for me, the meaning of life is focused on Christ's redemption (救赎) of us, and everything in the world is related to it in my eyes. " The following year, 1949, she moved to New York City. She soon left the city and lived with her friend Robert Fitzgerald and his family in the northeastern state of Connecticut. Fitzgerald says O'Connor needed to be alone to work during the day. And she needed her friends to talk to when her work was done.
While writing her first novel, Wise Blood, she was stricken with the disease lupus that had killed her father. The treatment for lupus weakened her. She moved back to Georgia and lived the rest of her life with her mother on a farm outside Milledgeville.

7、阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower isn't just a symbol of Paris, but a symbol for all of France. Established by Gustave Eiffel to memorize the French Revolution in 1889, the 1, 050-foot (320-metre)tower once held the title of the world's tallest structure.
The basics
The Eiffel Tower's first floor features exhibits, kid-friendly experiences, and the 58 Tour Eiffel restaurant; the second floor includes the Jules Verne Restaurant; and the third-floor summit, accessible via a glass elevator, features Gustave Eiffel's private apartments and a Champagne bar. Of course, all levels offer striking 360-degree views of the City of Light.
Given the structure's global popularity, the crowds can be quite large, meaning that priority-access tours are highly recommended-in peak season, long lines mean that waits can often be over 3 hours. Save precious sightseeing time by booking a skip-the-line Eiffel Tower ticket with or without a tour guide; this experience can be combined with a Paris city tour. If you'd rather view the iconic(标志性的) structure in all its glory than head to the top, book a Seine River cruise(巡航) or a walking, biking, or Segway tour.
Things to know before you go
Plan your visit in advance and book skip-the-line tickets to avoid a long wait time.
If you purchase an admission ticket for Eiffel Tower summit access, you'll head straight to the top before stopping at the lower levels on your downward journey.
There are ATMs and souvenir shops on the ground floor.
The tower's first two levels are wheelchair accessible, but the summit is not.
You'll be required to undergo a security screening before entering the tower.
How to get there

Humans have sailed the oceans' surfaces for millennia(千年), but their depths remain effectively uncharted. Only about a quarter of the seafloor has been mapped at high resolution. Maps of most regions display only approximate depths and often miss entire underwater mountains or canyons(峡谷).
So a group of researchers has recruited some deep-diving experts: Elephant Seals and Weddell Seals. Scientists have been placing trackers on these blubbery marine mammals around Antarctica for years, gathering data on ocean temperature and salinity. For a new study, the researchers compared these dives' location and depth data with some of the less detailed seafloor maps. They spotted places where the seals dove deeper than should have been possible according to the maps--meaning the existing depth estimates were inaccurate.
In eastern Antarctica's Vincennes Bay, the diving seals helped the scientists find a large, hidden underwater canyon. An Australian research ship called the RSV Nuyina later measured the canyon's exact depth using sonar, and the researchers have proposed naming their find the Mirounga-Nuyina Canyon—honoring both the ship and the involved Elephant Seals, genus(动植物的属)Mirounga.
But seals can't map the entire ocean floor. The trackers used in the study could pinpoint a seal's geographical location only within about
1.5miles. Plus, because the seals don't always dive to the bottom of the ocean, they can reveal only where the bottom is deeper than in existing maps—not shallower. McMahon notes that scientists could improve on these data by using more precise GPS trackers and analyzing the seals' diving patterns to determine whether they have reached the seafloor or simply stopped descending.
The current seal-dive data can still be valuable for an important task, says Anna Wåhlin, an oceanographer. The deep ocean around Antarctica is warmer than the frigid waters at the surface, and seafloor canyons can allow that warmer water to flow to the ice along the continent's coast, Wåhlin explains. To predict how Antarctica's ice will melt, scientists will need to know where those canyons are and how deep they go.
(1)、What problem is mentioned at the beginning of the text?A、Lack of the map. B、Not enough tools. C、Ineffective charts. D、Inaccurate measurement.(2)、How did the researchers conduct the study?A、By observing the seals. B、By. comparing different data. C、By using advanced equipment. D、By analyzing the existing maps.(3)、What does the underlined words "their find" in paragraph 3 refer to?A、The canyon. B、The ship. C、The seals. D、The genus.(4)、What can be inferred from the text?A、The present data is of little use. B、Seal's swimming pattern influences the data. C、The ocean's surface around Antarctica is warmer. D、The seal can't reach deep ocean because of temperature. -
