1、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
During this holiday, my family took a trip to Tanzania. Getting there was really an adventure! We took fifteen different planes. The ride was difficult, but the scenery was amazing. When we arrived, the time difference was difficult to deal with, but after a few nights I got used to it. We stayed in a safari resort(游猎度假村). There were all kinds of noises. But they weren't ones I was used to hearing; the noises came from animals and insects.
On our first day, we saw a herd of giraffes and two rhinos(犀牛). Our guide Mishi told us that the two black rhinos had been caught and brought here because they were in danger of dying out due to poachers(偷猎者),who wanted them for their horns(角). The two rhinos are not in a zoo but in guarded pens(牲畜栏) of about 100 acres.
The next day, Mishi took us to a river. In it, there are big crocodiles(鳄鱼) and even bigger hippos. After we took pictures, Mishi brought us to a suspension(悬挂) bridge. My family was very nervous about crossing it after seeing what was in the river and there was a sign saying "No more than one person on the bridge each time". Mishi finally promised us that it was not dangerous, and she was right! We all made it to the other side in one piece.
After we explored a little in the area, we found a long line of ants. I noticed that a few were bigger than the others and these bigger ants were walking next to the line, as if keeping the others in order. Mishi told us that they were called Army Ants and were used by old Tanzanian tribes(部落) for medical treatment. They could live with nature harmoniously.
After many days of fun and great adventure, our trip was over. I am looking forward to going back someday.

D、The time difference.(2)、Why are the two black rhinos caught and kept in pens?A、To attract tourists. B、To protect them from poachers. C、To get their horns. D、To prevent them from attacking the local people.(3)、What can we learn about the bridge mentioned in paragraph 3?A、It can bear great weight. B、It has a long history. C、It is safe to cross. D、It crosses a lifeless river.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、The Lovely Wild Animals B、A Dangerous Trip to Tanzania C、Living with Nature Harmoniously D、An Adventurous but Amazing Trip -

15、 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Solar terms, which (be) also called Jieqi in Chinese, are days marking one of the 24 time buckets or the solar year in traditional Chinese calendar, used to indicate the alternation of seasons and climate changes in ancient China.
As far back as the Spring and Autumn period, there were four solar terms: mid-spring, mid-summer, mid-autumn mid-winter. After continuous improvement, by the Qin and Han dynasties, 24 solar terms have been (full) established.
The Yellow River Basin in Northern China is believed to be the cradle of the solar terms system. China's 24 solar terms are a knowledge system and (society) practice formed through observations of the sun's annual motion and cognition of the year's changes in season, climate and phenology. Ancient Chinese divided the sun's movement through the sky 24 segments, with each segment (equal) one roughly two-week-long "solar term". (base) on the sun's position in the zodiac, the 24 solar terms were created by farmers in ancient China (guide) the agricultural affairs and farming activities. They serve as an instruction manual of sorts for farmers, allowing them to know conditions to expect or what agricultural activities to carry out during certain periods of the year.
Solar terms are often called "the (five) great invention" of China after paper making, printing, gunpowder and the compass.

17、 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Cloning is defined as using the cells of one living subject, plant or animal, to create another duplicate subject. A cloned subject will be the same as its parent. This technology could be useful for laboratory studies and for creating satisfying animals. .
One of the biggest disadvantages of cloning is that the technology is still so uncertain. Dolly the sheep, the first mammalian clone, was born in 1996. , she died young of a disease not normally seen in sheep of her age. It is still unsure whether genetic mutations might occur when an animal is cloned.
. Gene diversity is what keeps an entire species from being wiped out by a singular virus. It helps to explain why some people naturally are taller, shorter, or more athletic than others. If gene diversity is lost due to excessive cloning, there are no mutations to allow some of the cloned group to survive a newly introduced disease.
Another of the disadvantages of cloning is that there are a lot of moral considerations that would cause most people to protest. One of these ethical concerns is that cloning is unnatural. Another concern is the treatment of clones. . Humane treatment guidelines would still apply.
There is always a risk of cloning technology being abused. For example, imagine what a corrupt officer could do with cloning. There will always be someone looking to use cloning for their own personal use, and many feel that the best way to prevent this is not to pursue cloning at all.
The disadvantages of cloning are seen by many to far outweigh any benefits that might be seen. , it is a technology that many experts say may be better left alone, at least until it is better understood.
A. While she was initially successful
B. Because of the risk involved in cloning
C. This is due to the lack of gene diversity
D Losing gene diversity is another disadvantage of cloning
E. Clones would have the same needs as non-clones of their species
F. There are many advantages of cloning, for example, curing certain diseases
G. However, there are several disadvantages of cloning that should be considered

18、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Imagine an albatross (信天翁) with a hacksaw for a mouth. Set that strange creature about 50 million years in the past and you've got the image of a pelagornithid, a group of ancient birds that included some of the largest flying birds of all time.
Now paleontologists have uncovered in that group what may be the largest known flying birds ever, with wingspans of roughly six meters. By comparing a pair of polar fossils to the remains of related birds, paleontologists have been able to identify the early history of huge fliers that were some of the first birds capable of flying across seas.
During the 1980s, University of California Berkeley paleontologist Peter Kloess says, scientists searching for Antarctic fossils found some delicate bird bones—a jaw and part of a foot from an ancient bird.
The bird jaw, which came from a rock formation laid down over 37 million years ago, looks almost like a woodcutting tool rather than a bone. The jaw has a series of large and small spikes, outgrowth s of the beak that are similar to teeth. Because of that feature, the paleontologists immediately identified the jaw as belonging to a pelagornithid, also known as bony-toothed birds that have a very long fossil record. The oldest pelagornithids evolved about 56 million years ago, and the most recent flew through the skies about two million years ago.
The foot bone came from another large Antarctic pelagornithid, but its real importance was in its age. The fossil was found in a rock layer in the La Meseta Formation, about 50 million years old. This falls within a time called the Eocene, when life had recovered from the asteroid-induced mass extinction and was thriving again. Together, the foot bone and the jaw indicate that large bony-toothed birds thrived in the Antarctic for millions of years.
Paleontologists have found bony-toothed birds from places all over the world, from New Zealand to South Carolina. The newly-described Antarctic fossils, though, are the oldest known and hint that these birds quickly diversified into a range of sizes within six million years of their origin. Previous studies have calculated that the largest of the bony-toothed birds could be near the limit of how big a bird could get and still fly, meaning these birds are the strongest competitors for the largest flying birds to ever fly.
Those impressive wings would have allowed the pelagornithids to range far and wide, flying long distances on outstretched wings. That helps explain why fossils from various species of pelagornithids have been found all over the world during their extended evolutionary period.
(1)、Why does the author mention the albatross in Paragraph 1?A、To show its long evolutionary process. B、To help readers imagine an ancient bird. C、To compare it with a strange ancient bird. D、To show its difference with an ancient bird.(2)、What helped the paleontologists identify the bird jaw?A、Its living environment. B、Its special location. C、Its unique appearance. D、Its extremely large size.(3)、What can we learn about bony-toothed birds?A、They all had a very short lifespan. B、They all faced considerable threats. C、They developed many survival skills. D、They evolved into various bird species.(4)、Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word "outstretched" in the last paragraph?A、Expansive. B、Gorgeous. C、Abstract. D、Depraved. -
19、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is America's fifth largest city. Once a major American colonial city, it is the home of America's first library, its first hospital, and its first zoo. Now it is also the first US city to be named a World Heritage City. On November 6, 2015, Philadelphia joined more than 260 other cities that have been recognized for their influence on the world. These cities include Paris, France, Florence, Italy, and Cairo, Egypt.
The exciting news was announced by Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, Deputy Mayor Alan Greenberger, responsible for economic development and business guidance, and the Global Philadelphia Association. "Today marks the start of a new and exciting chapter in the history of Philadelphia," remarked Nutter when the announcement was made. "As a World Heritage City, Philadelphia is being officially recognized on the global stage for its wealth of contributions to the world."
To be named a World Heritage City, a city must be home to a UNESCO World Heritage site. UNESCO World Heritage sites are selected for their universal value and significance. For Philadelphia, the site is Independence Hall.
Independence Hall is where two of the most important documents in US history — the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution — were adopted. The Declaration of Independence, approved on July 4, 1776, united the 13 former British colonies and declared them independent from British rule. From then on, a democratic and free country was born, which changed the course of world history. The US Constitution, signed in 1787, established the American democratic system of government. A democracy is a system of government in which the people elect their leaders. The Constitution later spelled out the basic freedoms American citizens have.
Greenberger says the city's selection as a World Heritage City also reflects its educational, cultural, and economic achievements. The city is home to dozens of colleges and universities, and many museums, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art. "Philadelphia has rightfully earned its place as one of the greatest cities in the world. As we celebrate this milestone, we will focus even more on improving Philadelphia's status as a World Heritage City to attract more guests to visit, invest, work, study and live here." Greenberger says.
(1)、We can learn from Paragraph 1 that Philadelphia ____.A、has the best American hospitals B、contributed a lot to the global economy C、is known for many America's firsts D、has been famous as a World Heritage City(2)、In Paragraph 2, Michael Nutter is mainly talking about ____.A、the economic development of the city B、the history of Philadelphia C、the contributions of the city D、the significance of the city's selection(3)、What opinion does Alan Greenberger hold?A、The city really deserves the honor. B、It's easy for the city to win the honor. C、It won't be long before the city takes off. D、The honor will bring the city a better future.(4)、What could be the best title for the text?A、Philadelphia Makes a Difference B、Philadelphia Makes History C、Philadelphia Develops a Lot D、America Wins Global Respect -
20、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
Humans have been exploring the infinite abyss (深渊) beyond Earth's atmosphere. When astronauts explore the vast expanse of outer space, they need to wear high-tech spacesuits to protect them from the freezing conditions of the universe.
Hollywood movies have idealized the iconic suit, its design leading the masses to believe it's an outfit that can be slipped on within minutes. In fact, the spacesuit which is made up of nearly a half dozen different components and can have up to 16 layers is its own fully functioning spacecraft that takes hours to put on and requires help from one's colleagues.
The astronauts on the Artemis missions, NASA's next program to send the first woman and the first person of color to the moon, will wear the latest spacesuit, called the exploration extravehicular mobility unit, also known as xEMU, according to NASA.
Each spacesuit has a portable life support system, which includes a water tank for the cooling garment and carbon dioxide removal system to regulate body temperature, remove excess heat and maintain the astronauts' health, said Richard Rhodes, the deputy lead for xEMU pressure garment development at NASA. A two-way radio system is also included so the astronauts can communicate during the missions.
"When the Apollo astronauts walked on the moon, they couldn't bend over and pick up a rock," said NASA astronaut Mike Fincke. Fortunately, spacesuits have come a long way since then and have a more flexible structure with gloves. The gloves are one of the most complicated parts of the spacesuit, said Cathleen Lewis, curator of the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum. "Gloves are very difficult to design to be protective and also allow the manual dexterity (灵巧) that astronauts need to do meaningful work." she noted.
The spacesuits will also be getting some upgrades for the latest lunar mission. Richard Rhodes's team is working on the spacesuit that will allow for more movement to explore the rough terrain of the moon while still being strong enough to protect the wearer.
(1)、What can we learn about the spacesuit in Hollywood movies?A、It provides the most ideal design. B、It functions as a spacecraft of its own. C、It can be put on without too much difficulty. D、It can protect the astronauts from the cold in space.(2)、In what aspect does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about the latest spacesuit?A、Its operating methods. B、Its component parts. C、Its existing problems. D、Its initial aims.(3)、Why are the Apollo astronauts mentioned in the passage?A、To contrast the Apollo spacesuit with the latest one. B、To give an example of a successful space mission. C、To demonstrate the failure of the Apollo missions. D、To criticize the incompetence of the Apollo astronauts.(4)、Which of the following best describes NASA's spacesuit for the next lunar mission?A、High-tech but impractical. B、Portable and mobile. C、Costly but well-received. D、Flexible and protective.
