21、UFO stands for "unidentified flying object". Many people reported having seen UFOs in the sky. A lot of countries tried to research them and in 1952 they got the name of UFO.
There were several reports published in the 19th century which were related to UFOs. Denison Daily News in its report of 25th January, 1878 wrote that a farmer, Martin, saw a flying object in the sky and it was just like a plate. This was the first time that the word plate had been related to the UFOs.
The first reports on UFOs came during World War II. In 1947 pilot Kenneth Arnold said while he was flying near the Mount Rainer he saw a very bright object in the sky. He said that it was like a plate too. The information given by Kenneth got lots of attention from the media and people.
Several research organizations gave their reports on the UFOs. They showed direct or indirect physical evidence of the UFOs, and sometimes UFOs’ appearance was found on the radar (雷达) screen. Many people tried to take video tapes or photos of the UFOs as testimony. Most UFOs are in saucer shape while many UFOs are like a cigarette or a half ball.
Many films and TV shows are made about UFOs. There are two famous movies which are created on the theme of UFOs and aliens, War of the World and Star Wars. UFOs have created a new field in science which is known as Ufology (飞碟学).
【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The UFOs Martin and Kenneth Arnold saw were in different shapes.
B. People named the flying object UFO in the 19th century.
C. Martin was the first person that described the flying object as a plate.
D. Kenneth Arnold was given little attention for his discovering UFO.
【2】What does the underlined word " testimony " in the fourth paragraph mean?
A. Evidence. B. Research.
C. Mystery. D. Appearance.
【3】The next paragraph following the passage might talk about ________.
A. famous movies on the UFOs
B. different UFOs’shapes
C. the effect of UFOs on humans
D. the new science —Ufology
22、Look up over the white sand beaches of Mauritius and you may see a huge sail. It’s much like the kind used by kite surfers but the size of a three-bedroom apartment. The sail isn’t a tourist attraction—it’s creating electricity for this island off the east coast of Africa.
Launched in December 2021 by SkySails Power, the massive wing is the world’s first fully autonomous commercial “airborne wind energy”system. For the past two months, it has been delivering a little under its goal of 100 kilowatts—typically enough to power up to 50 homes.
To harvest wind energy from the heights where wind blows fastest, the key may be to fly a kite. These systems come in a container and can be dropped off wherever there’s a road or dock (码头). They can also be tied to a fixed ship in deep waters. Their height is adaptable, so they can be moved up or down to wherever the wind blows the hardest, which often changes with the seasons.
SkySails actually started back in 2001 with a different purpose: building soft kite wings to pull massive ships along at sea. In 2015 SkySails shifted focus to producing electricity with SkySails Power.
SkySails’system relies on a roughly 150 square metre wing to ride on the wind. There are no turbines(涡轮机) up in the air, and the line isn’t an electric wire. Instead, the energy is generated on the ground, from the pull on the line.“The brake on the winch(绞车) is generating the electricity,” says Fagiano, the chief officer. Software flies the kite autonomously in a figure-of-eight pattern to get the strongest pull possible to produce energy. The system then changes the wing’s flight pattern so it can be pulled in with minimal resistance, expending a little energy to wind it back. This pattern repeats, creating far more energy than it consumes.
The sails have less impact on the skyline than traditional turbines and are quieter too, says Fagiano. And they make economic sense for anyone currently paying more than $0.30 per kilowatt hour from traditional generators.
【1】What is the most effective way for the system to get energy?
A．It is placed as high as possible.
B．It is tied to a ship in the deep sea.
C．It is adjusted to the hardest winds.
D．It is fixed on the white sand beaches.
【2】What is SkySails’original intention to develop the system?
A．To beat traditional turbines.
B．To power the homes in need.
C．To pull the huge ships at sea.
D．To compete with other companies.
【3】What does paragraph 5 focus on?
A．Why turbines are abandoned.
B．How the SkySails’ system works.
C．How software controls the wing.
D．Why the wing changes its flight pattern.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A．SkySails:Pioneer in wind power
B．SkySails:Competitor to traditional power
C．The kites seeking the world’s surest winds
D．The kites generating the cheapest electricity
23、 It's common that a Japanese-American bows on the phone—but only in Japanese. Behaviors and manners can become so routine that they appear even when there's no need for them.Those who are bilingual and bi-cultural know first-hand that how we behave can depend on what language we are speaking.Experts have shown that who you are in the moment can depend on the language you are using at that time.
This is because when you have an experience,the language you are using becomes associated with it.For bilingual people,this means certain memories are more closely associated with one language than the other-a phenomenon called language-dependent memory.For example,a childhood memory is more likely to be remembered when the language spoken during that childhood event is spoken again.
How we think and feel can thus change depending on what language we are using.For example,people who are bilingual have an intensified stress response when listening to the words of scolding in a native language.This may be,in part,because our early memories associated with learning a"bad”word or being scolded by our parents happened in our native language.
Because emotions play a key role in how we make decisions,people are often more sensible when making choices in the less emotional foreign language.When asked whether they would be willing to give one person's life to save a group,people who speak more than one language are much more likely to say"yes" when answering in a foreign language.The unpleasant feelings that can prevent us from making difficult choices are reduced when we're using a non-native language.
The Language we speak has an influence on how we think,feel,and even behave.In a way,knowing different languages can provide people with a variety of views through which to see the world.
【1】Why is the example of Japanese-American mentioned?
A.To show the influence of culture is huge.
B.To show bowing is Japanese people's routine.
C.To show Japanese people are polite on the phone.
D.To show one's use of language affects one's behavior.
【2】What does the underlined word"intensified"in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Worse.
B.Better.
C.Increased.
D.Limited.
【3】When a person speaks a foreign language, he is likely to____
A.make a sound decision
B.prevent himself from danger
C.be influenced by other people
D.have difficulty making decisions
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.You Are Actually What You Are Speaking
B.Native Languages Make People Speak More
C.Different Languages Have Different Influences
D.Speak Your Native Language in Other Countries
24、One of the most popular and enduring myths about depression is that depressed people are sad all the time—and that by extension, people who are happy can’t be experiencing depression, even if they say they are. It is a mistaken version of depression. Depression doesn’t make you sad all the time.
When I’m having a depressive feeling, I’m not walking around in black clothes, and weeping. I go out with friends. I play jokes. I keep working, and have friendly chats with the people I work with. I read books. Above all, I experience moments of happiness. Yet I feel a strange conflicting pressure. On the one hand, I feel like I need to engage in a sort of sadness for people to understand that I really am depressed and that each day is a struggle for me. Because that way I will appear suitably sad, and thus, depressed—and then maybe people will recognize that I’m depressed and perhaps they’ll even offer support and assistance.
On the other hand, I feel an extreme pressure to perform just the opposite, because sad depressed people are boring and no fun, as I am continually reminded every time I speak openly about depression or express feelings of sadness and frustration. I’m caught in a trap where if I don’t perform sadness, I’m not really depressed, but if I express sadness at all to any degree, I’m annoying and boring and should stop being so self-centered. Depression can become your master, but you can slip out from under it occasionally. And many depressed people don’t actually spend it fainting dramatically on the couch and talking about how miserable they are.
【1】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Sad people are always depressed.
B. Depressed people are sad all the time.
C. Happy people will never feel depressed.
D. Depressed people do not always feel sad.
【2】When feeling depressed, the writer usually avoids ________.
A. expressing sad feelings straight
B. going out with friends and relatives
C. having friendly chats with colleagues
D. experiencing moments of happiness
【3】What’s the writer’s attitude to being sad and depressed?
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Indifferent. D. Cold.
【4】In the passage, the writer advises depressed people to ________.
A. speak openly about depression
B. hide the depression in the heart and never express it
C. be optimistic and become the master of depression
D. lie on the couch and talk about how depressed they are
25、For a herder (放牧人) in Africa, the hardest part of the job is searching for cattle lost in the bush. But for Andrew, a herder at a farm in Zimbabwe, it’s not a_________. Once he_________Toro, he knows the rest of the herd is nearby. That’s because Toro isn’t an ordinary member of the herd. He’s a giraffe. In_________weather, cattle rest in the shade under his belly to keep cool. And because of his height, Toro can spot lions long before they come close to the herd.
Toro’s_________situation came about after his mother was killed by lions. Toro survived the attack, but he was left with no one to protect him or give him milk. About two days later, some herders spotted and rescued him. With the_________of the Department of Wildlife, the herders moved Toro to Andrew’s farm. Since giraffes and cattle are both plant-eating animals that live in_________, their behaviors are much the same. Toro was accepted into the herd and_________among the cattle as they ate grass.
Toro doesn’t always behave like the other members of his new herd. Like many kinds of animals, cattle_________leadership. Standing more than 13 feet tall, Toro is more than three times taller than the_________bull, but Toro__________tries to be “the boss”. “He is very used to their __________,” Andrew said. When the herd enters the kraal (家畜栏), the cows and bulls__________each other. “But thanks to his height, Toro does not need to join the__________,” said Andrew.
When asked if Toro would ever be__________to the wild, Munetsi, an officer of the Department of Wildlife said no. “In the wild, he would find it difficult to be accepted into another herd or defend himself from being killed by other animals,” he added. “He seems very much at home and is respected by the__________.”
