21、 Scientists have discovered a "monster black hole" so massive that, in theory, it shouldn't exist
It’s a stellar black hole---the type that forms after stars die, collapse, and explode. Researchers had previously believed that the size limit was no more than 20 times the mass of our sun because 8S these stars die, they lose most of their mass through explosions that expel matter and gas swept away by stellar winds
This theory has now been toppled by LB-1, the newly discovered black hole. Located about 15.000 light years away, it has a mass 70 times greater than our sun, according to a press release from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The findings were published by Chinese researchers in the journal Nature on Wednesday.
"Black boles of such mass should not even exist in our galaxy, according to most of the current models of stellar evolution," said Liu Jifeng, head of the team that made the discovery. "LB-1 is twice as massive as what we thought possible. Now theorists will have to take up the challenge of explaining its formation."
Scientists are now scratching their heads at how LB-1 got so huge.
The Chinese team has proposed a number of theories. LB-1' sheer size suggests that it “was not formed from the collapse of only one star," the study said--- instead, it could potentially be two smaller black holes orbiting each other.
Another possibility is that it formed from “fallback supermova.” This is when a supernoma---the last stage of an exploding star---ejects material during the explosion, which then falls back into the supernova, creating a black hole.
This fallback formation is theoretically possible, but scientists have never been able to prove or observe it. If this is how LB-1 formed, then we may have "direct evidence for this process” for the first time, the study said.
There are several types of black holes and stellar black holes like LB-1 are on the smaller side, according to NASA. Supermassive black holes are much bigger---they can be billions of times the mass of our sun,
Scientists believe supermassive black holes may be connected to the formation of galaxies, as they often exist at the center of the mass star stems but it is still not clear exactly how, or which form first.
【1】Why does the writer write the article?
A.To report the great achievement Chinese scientists have made in black hole theory,
B.To inform the readers of the basic knowledge about the black hole,
C.To share with the readers the new development of the black hole discovery,
D.To demonstrate the significance of discovering new black holes for science.
【2】Which of the following about LB-1 is true to the passage?
A.It is the biggest black hole ever discovered,
B.It lost only a small part of its mass through explosion.
C.It couldn't have been formed from the collapse of one star,
D.Its discovery may lead to some breakthrough in the “fallback formation theory".
【3】Which of the following is right according to the passage?
A.If the sun in our galaxy dies some of its mass will be taken away by stellar winds.
B.A massive supernova will be formed and then exploded if the sun in our galaxy dies.
C."The Milky Way" was formed after a supermassive black hole collapsed and exploded.
D.If “the Milky Way" dies, a supermassive black hole will be formed after its death.
22、The rising popularity of swimming hasn’t skipped by the Lake District — this beautiful national park is a hotspot for swimmers. Don’t miss these amazing swimming spots in the Lake District, perfect all year round.
Haverigg Beach
Great for dog walking, Haverigg Beach is best enjoyed at a low tide so you and your family can make the most of the available space. The beach isn’t busy in the colder months, which makes it an ideal location for a spot of swimming.
Blea Tarn
Blea Tarn is ideal for beginners or those who want a quiet swim. It is one of the easiest lakes to visit with two car parks. Blea Tarn is scenically impressive, especially in the colder months. Its otherworldly feel is best seen to be believed — it was even a filming destination for Netflix’s hit fantasy film The Witcher.
Silecroft Beach
Silecroft Beach sleeps at the edge of the Lake District National Park. This beach has excellent water quality and is Marine Conservation Society-recommended and it’s easy to see why. As well as being brilliantly looked after, the beach has accessible toilets, adequate parking, a local cafe and plenty of nearby pubs to warm up in after a dip in the water.
St Bees Beach
This sand beach is a hidden diamond when it comes to striking Lake District views. St Bees Beach has two car parks available, plenty of cafes and restaurants and even a golf course! Dogs are also allowed here all year round. The impressive cliff face at the end of the beach makes for a brilliant view to swim towards and a sight you won’t soon forget. St Bees is England’s only cliff-nesting seabird colony!
【1】Which of the four spots was shot in a movie?

23、The British Sense of Humour
The British are known for their sense of humor. However, it is often difficult for foreigners to make sense of their jokes. The main thing to remember is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others. 【1】 Another key to understanding British humor is to know that the British often use understatement.
Understatement means saying less than you think or feel. For example, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person, someone else might say, 'She isn’t exactly friendly.' Understatement is often used in unpleasant situations or to make another person look silly. 【2】
The British like to make fun of many other things. They often laugh about the silly and terrible things that happen to us every day, like when someone accidentally falls over in the street. They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society. 【3】Finally, the British love to watch comedies about people who do not know how to behave in society. The comedy programme Mr. Bean is a good example of this kind of humor.
【4】In pictures, he almost never talks, and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr. Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do. For instance, once Mr. Bean bought a large chair. He needed to take it home, but it was too big to fit in his small car. His solution was to put the chair on top of his car. 【5】Mr. Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor. Because of this, many people can better understand the British sense of humor.
A.British humor brings people laughter and content.
B.Understatement plays an important part in British humor.
C.Then, he sat in the chair and used a broom to drive the car!
D.They also like to make jokes about situations that are quite serious.
E.Throughout the film, the audience were amused by his convincing acting.
F.Mr. Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990.
G.Such jokes are normally about their accents, the way they dress and the way they behave.
24、Dozens of food tech companies in Israel reattempting to pioneer innovative methods to produce meat without killing animals. To achieve this goal, scientists adopt cutting-edge bioprinting 3D technology.
According to Arik Kaufman, CEO of Israelii company Steakholder Foods Ltd, the shape and thickness of the 3D-printed meat can be programmed to meet personal preferences. In other words, food printing could allow consumers to print food with customized nutritional content, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterday’s bread, you could eat something baked at your request. Future 3D food printers could make processed food healthier.
The process works by first selecting the animals to extract the stem cells. The cells are selected from animals that will provide the best meat. The next step is proliferation (增殖), in which the cells are placed into a nutrient rich reactor to multiply. When the cells reach suitable numbers, the stem cells differentiate (区分) into muscle cells and fat cells. In the final step, the muscle cells and fat cells are turned to meat. And the meat is ready to be processed into the final product, be it a burger, a steak, or even a meat loaf.
According to the United Nations Food and Organization (FAO), emissions from global farm animals represent 14. 5 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions. Cattle are the animal species responsible for the most emissions, representing about 65 of the percent emissions. Researchers suggest that lab-made beef is bound to reduce the environmental impact from conventional meat production methods. A 2019 report from the University of Oxford suggests “cultured meat” grown using tissue engineering techniques produces up to 96% less greenhouse gas emissions, 45% less energy, 99% lower land use, and 96% lower water use than the conventional process.
For many start-ups in this field, the high cost of 3D-printed meat and its taste are quite different from ordinary beef. Hence, mass production still faces certain challenges.
【1】What does the underlined word “customized” in paragraph 2mean?
A．Mixed.
B．Tailored.
C．Usual.
D．Familiar.
【2】What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A．Steps to select proper stem cells.
B．Varied functions of different cells.
C．Detailed information on 3D-printed meat.
D．Procedures of producing 3D-printed meat.
【3】What can we learn about 3D-printed meat?
A．It contains more nutrition.
B．It is environmentally friendly.
C．It contributes to greenhouse gases.
D．It will be produced at large scale soon.
【4】What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
A．To present an environment report.
B．To recommend a food company.
C．To introduce a novel technology.
D．To show a healthy eating trend.
