22、 Today, Mars is a frozen desert with a thin atmosphere, too cold for liquid water to remain on the surface. Overwhelming evidence exists that Mars had liquid water oceans roughly 4 billion years ago. The question that drives our interests isn’t whether there’s life on present-day Mars. We are driven instead by asking whether there was life on Mars billions of years ago, which seems significantly more likely.
But if water existed on the Marian surface before, how was it possible? Mars is further away from the sun than Earth, and billions of years ago, the sun didn’t throw off as much heat as it does now.
The planet’s protective magnetic field mysteriously disappeared around 4.2 billion years ago as Mars cooled after forming. The sun’s solar wind then blew away the Martian atmosphere. leaving behind the thin one the planet has today.
Scientists believe the atmosphere was a key component for a warm, wet Mars that may have once hosted life. To have made the planet warm enough for liquid surface water, its atmosphere would likely have needed a large amount of greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide specifically.
Currently, we don’t know the carbon dioxide content of Mars ancient atmosphere. So the researchers turned to the Nordlinger Ries crater（陨石坑）in southern Germany. It was created by a meteorite（陨石）impact 15 million years ago. That geology and the chemistry of the site act as a good similar for the Martian surface.
Researchers will study the pH and nitrogen that might have been in ancient Martian water, which will show the carbon dioxide content in its ancient atmosphere. That will throw light on whether Mars was once warm enough to support life.
The Mars 2020 rover（探测器）will land in a similar crater next year, collecting samples that will be returned to Earth in a future mission. It could be 10 to 20 years before Mars samples are brought back to Earth. We might know the answer to one of the first questions once these samples are distributed to labs in the US and throughout the world.
【1】What are people more interested in about Mars?
A．Whether there was ever life on Mars.
B．Whether there is life on Mars now.
C．Whether there was ever water on Mars.
D．Whether it is possible for life on Mars.
【2】The Martian atmosphere was blown away by solar wind, because Mars ________.
A．was too cold
B．had no water on it
C．lost its magnetic field
D．was too far from the sun
【3】What do researchers want to find out in the Nordlinger Ries crater?
A．How this crater was formed.
B．Why Mars is not suitable for life.
C．Whether there is any life sign on Mars.
D．How much carbon dioxide is in Mars’ ancient atmosphere.
【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Mars samples will be brought back to earth in 2021.
B．Many countries take part in the research of Mars.
C．It takes at least ten years for people to reach Mars.
D．Mars samples will help discover all the secrets of Mars.
23、In his lifetime La Tour must have been one of the most admired painters, who was on close terms with courts in Lorraine and Paris and became the King’s Painter to Louis XIII in 1639. However, not many of his works survived. These can be divided into his early “day pieces”, and the later “night pieces”. His sometimes direct realism and unflattering (不恭维的) presentation of the miserable subjects does not at all mean a sympathetic attitude to the socially disadvantaged of the day, on the contrary, issues of this kind were intended to amuse high society, who enjoyed decorating the walls of their homes with such melodramatic scenes. La Tour, affected by Caravaggio, painted various scenes of gambling. In Cheater with the Ace of Diamonds, an inexperienced, wealthy and well-dressed young man is being cheated at cards in the dishonest company of a courtesan (交际花) with her lover and a servant girl. Wine and the promise of love adventure have made the young dandy (好打扮的男人) so light-headed that he does not notice the apparent trick of an ace being drawn from his opponent’s belt.
Most of the paintings by La Tour we have at our disposal the art historians date after 1640. In these works La Tour is captivated with lightning effects which create sharp outlines. This fascination with light brought him great success in his day. However, he was completely forgotten after his death, only to be rediscovered in our own day. La Tour is an example of how artists can pass in and out of favor of the public.
【1】Why did La Tour present the socially disadvantaged in his works?
A．To show sympathy for them
B．To amuse people of high society
C．To show how miserable his subjects are
D．To decorate the walls of rich people’s homes
【2】What do we know about Cheater with the Ace of Diamonds?
A．It shows a gambling scene
B．It has lightning effects
C．It bears no influence of other painters
D．It is about love between a young man and a courtesan
【3】What does the underlined word captivated probably mean?
A．concerned
B．satisfied
C．connected
D．fascinated
【4】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．La Tour wasn’t admired in his day
B．La Tour became The King’s Painter in 1639
C．La Tour didn’t always win favor of the public
D．Most of La Tour’s works were created after 1640
24、 Many youths want to lean how to drive cars. This year one sixth of undergraduates in Beijing have registered at driving school. The students, mostly from majors such as business management or imitational trade, will finish their driving courses within 20 days or so.
Training costs have dropped to 4, 500 yuan for students, according to the Haidian Driving School in Beijing. The price is not really low, but students will accept it, seeing it as an investment (投资) in their future. Familiarity with the operation of computers and fluent English are the basic skills graduating students need to find a job. But a driver s permit has become another factor (因素).
“In the job market, owning a driver’s permit sometimes strengthens a graduating student’s competitiveness for a good position,” says Li Hua, an undergraduate at the China University of Political Science and law.
Cars will become a necessary part of many people’s lives in the coming years, and it is difficult to get a permit out of campus because of the pressures on working people’s time. “Having a full-time job after graduation offers limited time to learn to drive. We senior students have plenty of spare time, plenty of oppurtunity to learn,” says another undergraduate at the university.
Wu Dong, an official at the driving school, said undergraduates were very able and serious, and could grasp in an hour what ordinary people took four hours to learn. In this driving school, middle-aged people, young women and college students are the main customers.
From March 1, 2018, to get a driver’s permit, a beginner is now required to have at least 86 hours’ practice before the final road test.
【1】Why do the undergraduates learn to drive?
A. They are the students from special subject or course.
B. They like to drive cars very much.
C. They want y become full time drivers after graduation.
D. They need this skill to find a good job in the future.
【2】What is Wu Dong’s opinion of students learning to drive?
A. It would make the life more interesting.
B. Youths would have an advantage in learning to drive.
C. It is a waste of money and time to learn to drive.
D. It would be better to learn it at college than at work.
【3】To get the permit, the student ________.
A. requires some time to practice before the final road test
B. must pay more money before the final road test
C. must practice more to learn to drive when having a job
D. requires to learn some more other subjects to drive
