24、FOR people who are interested in space, nothing is more exciting than the idea of living on other planets. That might be why the movie The Martian (《火星救援》) is so popular. It shows an astronaut struggling to live on Mars. But would it actually be possible to live on the Red Planet?
While the idea of living on Mars is great, the reality does not look as good. Mars does not have a friendly atmosphere for humans. There is very little oxygen there. And because of its distance from the sun, it is also very cold. The temperature on Mars can be -62 degrees on average. This is much too cold for humans.
However, scientists say it might be possible to live there even without a good atmosphere. Daytime on Mars is almost the same as Earth’s. It means there’s enough sunlight to grow plants inside safe buildings. However, they would have to grow in soil from Earth. Mars does not have a strong enough atmosphere to stop the radiation coming from space, which makes it dangerous to grow things in the soil.
The radiation is also bad for our health. If we want to live there healthily, we need to build our homes under the ground or within the rocks on the planet. This would protect humans from the radiation and also some heat.
When could we actually live on Mars? NASA is hoping to make some progress within the next 20 years.
【1】The film The Martian is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to _____.
A. introduce the topic of living on Mars
B. tell readers something about the film
C. explain the development of the film-making business
D. show people’s knowledge of Mars
【2】Which of the following about Mars is NOT true?
A. Its atmosphere is not good for humans.
B. It has very little oxygen.
C. It’s colder than Earth.
D. It’s closer to the sun than Earth is.
【3】It’s possible to grow plants on Mars because _____.
A. there is enough sunlight
B. the soil is good on Mars
C. it has a good underground atmosphere
D. its temperature changes very little
【4】What does Para. 4 mainly talk about?
A. What problems the radiation causes.
B. How to avoid bad conditions on Mars.
C. How to build homes on Mars.
D. How to protect Mars.
25、 Bats are the only mammals (哺乳类动物) that can fly a great distance, but they have another ability. Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size.
European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long. They hope to find ways to fight the aging process (过程) in human beings.
Last week, the group of scientists said they had found important biological (生物学) qualities in bat species (种类). The group studied bat chromosomes (染色体)—a line of genes found in the nucleus (核) of cells. The scientists were very interested in the ends of the chromosomes. They are called telomeres (端粒). Telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes, which shorten each time a cell divides. Scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down. ▲___
This month, a report on bats was published in the journal Science Advances.
One of the leaders of the study was Emma Teeling, a biologist in Ireland. Teeling said studying long-living mammals is another way to prove the molecular (分子) basis of continued “health length.” She added that studying bats made scientists learn more about the processes “that drive healthy aging.”
The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species. They used information that had been collected over 60 years. Of these bats, the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived the longest, an average of 37 years.
The scientists said this and a connected species, named Myotis, had telomeres that did not shorten with age. Another Myotis bat holds the record for oldest age, reaching 41 years.
The scientists’ findings suggest that these bats’ cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres. This, they said, helps guard against the aging process. Based on its body size, a bat like the greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years. But, these mammals are found to live nearly 10 times longer than that.
The scientists found that eighteen of these are bats except an unusual African rat.
【1】Which of the following can be put in the blank at the end of Paragraph 3?
A.This makes scientists able to study bats.
B.That’s why bats can fly a great distance.
C.They say this is what causes aging.
D.They discover the cells connected to humans.
【2】Some species of bats live a very long time because _______.
A.they have a line of long-living genes out of the cells
B.their cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres
C.they have another ability to live longer without any food or water
D.telomeres protect the ends of chromosomes to stop cells dividing
【3】The underlined word “that” refers to _______.
A.the four years’ time B.body size C.the aging process D.the ability to repair
【4】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.The scientists find that bats hold the secret to long life.
B.Humans and bats are similar in protecting themselves.
C.The researchers try to study why bats are so small in size.
D.The greater mouse-eared bats live longer than any other animal.
26、 Most people cannot choose their jobs. They only have their jobs forced upon (被迫) them. This may be because they haven’t enough training for any other job, or because of economic situation, or because they live in a place where there is a limited choice of jobs, or because their fathers and grandfathers have always followed a certain occupation. The Indian born of farmer parents in a village has, for example, few opportunities of becoming anything but a farmer.
But if one is lucky enough to be able to choose the job one is going to do, how should one make one’s choice? One’s choice clearly depends on what one wants to get out of one’s job.
Some people believe that nobody can do a job well if they do not enjoy it. But this is probably true only of certain types of work. And there are those who have an ability for turning their job into something that is an enjoyable way of earning their living (挣钱生计), but who do not really do their work well. Some doctors, for example, who become rich and famous men are in fact not owning humanity (人性) which is necessary in their job, and may even not be especially skilled at their job. So are some lawyers. Perhaps many of the best doctors, lawyers, and teachers spend their lives working so hard for others that do not have time to become rich and famous. One must decide, when choosing a job, whether one wants to do a job for its own sake (为工作本身) or for the rewards (报酬) it offers.
【1】“They only have their jobs forced upon them” may means ________.
A.they make themselves do the jobs
B.they have to do the jobs available
C.they must follow what their fathers used to do
D.their jobs are chosen by others
【2】The underlined word “opportunities” in the first paragraph probably means “________.”
A.hobbies B.forms C.efforts D.chances
【3】According to the passage, a person’s choice of job should be decided by ________.
A.his economic situation B.his family background
C.his purpose in taking a job D.his ability to do a job
【4】The writer seems to have a good impression on those doctors who are ________.
A.rich. B.famous. C.skillful. D.hardworking.
【5】How many occupations are mentioned in the last paragraph?
A.One B.Two C.Three D.Four
【6】We may infer (推断) from the passage that ________.
A.lawyers are those people who work very hard for others
B.humanity is necessary in the making of a good doctor
C.a successful person is one who can make his living in an enjoyable way
D.teachers must be rich and famous if they work hard.
27、 China will cut the number of climbers trying to climb Mount Qomolangma from the north this year as part of plans for the clean-up on the world's highest mountains. The clean-up activity will include moving away the bodies of climbers who died at more than 8,000 metres up the mountain.
The total number of climbers trying to reach the top of the world's highest mountain from the north will be controlled to less than 300. The climbing season will be controlled to spring.
Parts of Qomolangma are in China and Nepal (尼泊尔). Each year, around 60,000 climbers and guides visit the Chinese north side of the mountain, but few actually try to climb it. China has set up stations to sort (分类), recycle and break down rubbish from the mountain, which includes cans, plastic bags, tents and oxygen tanks (氧气瓶).
On the Nepalese side, mountaineering trip organizers have begun sending huge rubbish bags to climbers during the spring climbing season. They should collect rubbish that then can be carried by helicopters back to the base camp.
Every year there are many victims on Qomolangma often in the "death area" above 8,000 metres, where the air is the thinnest. In 2017, 648 people reached the top of Qomolangma. Six people have died on the mountain that year, one of whom on the north side.
Qomolangma has become the world's highest rubbish dump (垃圾场). Meanwhile, melting (融化) ice caused by global warming is exposing (暴露) rubbish that has been left on the mountain since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made the first successful climbing 67 years ago.
【1】What can we guess from the first paragraph?
A.No climbers will climb Mount Qomolangma.
B.Some climbers died during mountain climbing.
C.About 8,000 people died of climbing the mountain.
D.Mount Qomolangma is cleaned up every year.
【2】Which is the proper season to climb the mountain from the north side?
A.Spring. B.Summer. C.Autumn. D.Winter.
【3】Which of the following is True?
A.Each year, around 60,000 climbers climb the mountain from the north side.
B.In China, people use helicopters to take the rubbish back to the base camp.
C.China has set up stations to deal with rubbish that is left on the mountain.
D.On the Nepalese side, climbers should take rubbish back to the base camp.
【4】What does the underlined word "victims" mean?
A.Persons who enjoy climbing. B.Persons who work hard.
C.Persons who help climbers. D.Persons who have experienced death.
【5】What can we mainly learn from the last paragraph?
A.The weather in the world is getting warmer.
B.Edmund and Tenzing were famous climbers.
C.Qomolangma is now getting much cleaner.
D.Qomolangma faces serious rubbish problems.
