21、A new graph has revealed exactly how long you’11 need to sweat it out in the gym to neutralize (抵消) swallowing a favorite fast food.
While eating fried chicken, pizza and burgers will all entail a gym session of over an hour doing cardio(有氧运动)or lifting weights, women have it far harder than men and must work extra hard to banish calorie-packed meals.
After a classic McDonald's favorite, the Big Mac, men would need to do 42 minutes of cardio or 57 minutes of weightlifting.
As for women, fifty one minutes of cardio would help counter the 24 grams of fat in a Big Mac---over a quarter of the recommended daily allowance - --or an hour and eight minutes of weightlifting.
However, the 450g Tesco chocolate cake was by far the worst offender. Clocking in at a whopping 1,710 calories and 90 grams of fat, only a hardcore gym session is going to shift the calories you’ve absorbed from this dessert. The average woman would have to lift weights for almost four hours to work off the calories in this cake.
Comparatively a chocolate bar seems healthy, with 237 calories which would take 25 minutes for the average woman to run off. Alternatively you could spend thirty three minutes doing weightlifting exercises.
Men will have to complete 40 minutes of cardio and 53 minutes of weightlifting while women will have to complete 48 minutes of cardio and 64 minutes of weightlifting against the calories in French fries.
【1】The fat of the recommended daily allowance for women is _________grams.
A .18 B. 20 C. 24 D. 30
【2】According to the passage, __________is the unhealthiest food.
A. French fries B. the Big Mac
C. a chocolate bar D. Tesco chocolate cake
【3】Compared with men, women must spend ________to consume the calories in French fries.
A. 11 more minutes lifting weights
B. 8 less minutes doing cardio
C. 8 more minutes lifting weights
D. 11 less minutes doing cardio
【4】The main purpose of the passage is to___________.
A. inform us to stay away from fast food
B. offer us advice on how to keep healthy
C. tell us some information about fast food
D.suggest what we do to work off the calories
22、 A satellite is about to demonstrate a new way of capturing space junk with magnets for the first time. With the frequency of space launches dramatically increasing in recent years, the potential for a disastrous collision above Earth is continually growing. Now, Japanese orbital clean-up company Astroscale is testing a potential solution.
The firm's End-of-Life Services by Astroscale demonstration mission is scheduled to lift off on 20 March aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket. It consists of two spacecraft: a smal “client” satellite and a larger “servicer” satellite, or “chaser”. The smaller satellite is equipped with a magnetic (磁力的) plate which allows the chaser to dock with it.
The two stacked spacecraft will perform three tests once in orbit, each of which will involve the servicer satellite releasing and then recapturing the client satellite. The first test will be the simplest, with the client satellite drifting a short distance away and then being recaptured. In the second test, the servicer satellite will set the client satellite tumbling before catching up with it and matching its motion to grab it.
Finally, if those two tests go well, the chaser will live up to its name by letting the client satellite float a few hundred metres away before finding it and attaching to it. All of these tests will be performed autonomously, with little to no human input once they are set in motion.
“These kinds of demonstrations have never been done before in space - they are very different to, say, an astronaut controlling a robotic arm on the International Space Station,” says Jason Forshaw at Astroscale UK.“This is more of an autonomous mission.” At the end of the tests, both spacecraft will burn up in Earth's atmosphere.
If companies wanted to use this capability, they would have to attach a magnetic plate to their satellites so they could be captured later. Because of the growing space garbage problem, many countries now require firms to have a way to bring back their satellites once they run out of fuel or fail, so this could be a fairly simple likely plan, Forshaw says. Right now, each chaser can only nab one satellite, but Astroscale is working on a version that could drag three or four out of orbit at once.
【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word "dock with" in Paragraph 2?
A．Deal with.
B．Keep up with.
C．Join together.
D．Crash.
【2】Why many countries now require firms to have a way to bring back their satellites?
A．Because of the growing space waste problem.
B．Because the frequency of space launches are dramatically increasing.
C．Because they can earn large profits from it.
D．Because Astroscale has found a new method of capturing the space garbage.
【3】What will Astroscale do to solve the space junk problem?
A．An astronaut controls a robotic arm on the International Space to capture the “client” satellite.
B．Through a magnetic plate remotely controlled by humans on the ground to catch the “client” satellite.
C．Finding the "client "satellite and attaching to it with a magnetic plate automatically.
D．Tumbling to match the motion of “client satellite the drag three or four satellites out of its orbit into atmosphere.
【4】What can we infer from the passage?
A．People will bum the space junk up in Earth's atmosphere in the future.
B．Japan and Russia will conduct space debris cleanup experiment together.
C．These kinds of demonstrations have never been done before.
D．The demonstration mission will be divided into three phases.
23、 Israeli company Watergen has produced an appliance that can generate (生产)clean, drinkable water out of air. The device, called GENNY, is small enough to be used in a home or office but can generate up to 30 liters of water a day.
GENNY takes air in and passes it through a filter (过滤器)to remove dust and dirt. The filter is powerful enough to work even in areas with high air pollution. The air is directed through GENius, a heating and cooling process which causes water in the air to condense (凝结). This water is then passed through several more filters and minerals are added to improve the flavor of the water. Finally, the water is stored in a tank where it: is continually circulated to keep it fresh. Therefore, the water produced by GENNY is often of a higher quality than water running through filtration systems attached to the city’s water lines.
The technology of GENius is much better than other technologies that generate water from air. It produces four to five times more water per kilowatt-hour. Watergen has other products that use this same technology on a larger scale, the largest of which can produce up to 5,000 liters of water per day.
As an added bonus, during the water generation process; GENNY can emit clean air which is healthier for people to breathe.
At the 2020 Smart home mark of Excellence Awards at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, GENNY was named the Energy Efficient Product of the Year. The award series recognize the world’s top high-tech home products.
As a company, Watergen focuses on dealing with the global water shortage. Last year, Watergen’s large-scale products were donated to authorities in Brazil, Vietnam and India. They also assisted rescue and recovery efforts during the 2018 California wildfires and provided clean, safe water for the residents of Texas and Florida in the aftermath of the devastation caused by hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
Watergen also seeks to help protect the environment by reducing waste generated by plastic water bottles. People are called upon to put the water from GEENY into reusable bottles so that plastic ones don’t get used and thrown away.
【1】What does the author tell us in Paragraph 2?
A．How high-quality water is produced.
B．Air will condense through cooling process.
C．Drinkable water can be got directly from air.
D．Polluted water becomes drinkable through filter.
【2】What does GENNY accomplish by adding minerals to.the water?
A．It keeps the water fresh.
B．It helps kill harmful bacteria.
C．It makes the water taste better.
D．It satisfies local water regulations.
【3】Which of the following can-best describe GENius?
A．Time-saving.
B．Energy-efficient.
C．Ground-breaking.
D．Environment-friendly.
【4】What does the underlined word “emit” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Blow away.
B．Cut down.
C．Use up.
D．Give off.
【5】What can Watergen do using its large-scale products?
A．Consume plastic waste.
B．Test water quality globally.
C．Respond to natural disasters.
D．Relieve drought in some countries.
24、 As your teacher passes out the math test, your hands turn sweaty. Your heart begins to race. Glancing down at the page, you suddenly forget those operations on which you drilled only a few days earlier. What's the multiplication table? Oh, you know it — well you're pretty sure, right? Suddenly, you start to doubt a lot of things that you “know”.
If that sounds familiar, you might suffer from math anxiety. Or maybe not. Even researchers who study this condition note that it can be surprisingly hard to define math anxiety. It's also hard to identify precisely how many people suffer from it.
To diagnose math anxiety, researchers design questionnaires, asking things like: “How anxious would you feel about being given a set of division problems to solve on paper?” Those who score high on these surveys about stress over making numerical （数学的） calculations will be labeled math-anxious. The exact share that gets this diagnosis, however, will fluctuate, depending on where researchers choose to draw the line at what counts as high.
In general, people who panic over their math skills tend to do worse in math classes than people who don't mind numbers. But that's not always true. “Just because you're math-anxious, that doesn't always mean you're bad at math,” notes Rose Vukovic, an educational psychologist at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.
Math anxiety affects people of all ages. Its effects don't end at graduation. Throughout life, this type of stress can stand in the way of mastering skills or projects in a host of areas that rely on computations（计算）.
The good news is that the problem is manageable. Ian Lyons, a psychologist at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., compares it to public speaking. Many people get anxious before giving a speech or performing. “You can respond to that positively and use that,” he says, “or you can go the other way.” An issue is whether you can see that stress as a positive challenge to overcome.
【1】How does the author introduce the topic?
A．By offering a definition.
B．By using study results.
C．By describing a possible situation.
D．By asking questions.
【2】What does the underlined word “fluctuate” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Vary.
B．Be denied.
C．Matter.
D．Be awarded.
【3】What does Rose Vukovic think of math anxiety?
A．It can disappear with graduation.
B．It can result in depression over time.
C．It won't cause people trouble in other areas.
D．It doesn't always lead to poor math grades.
【4】What does Ian Lyons suggest people with math anxiety do?
A．Do more math exercises.
B．Consult psychologists.
C．Face it confidently.
D．Give speeches to relieve it.
25、Fourth-grade teacher Tori Nelson allowed one of her students to cut her hair in the schoolyard, after bullies (仗势欺人者) laughed at him about his own buzz cut (平头).

26、It was last February. Noel, a 28-year-old marketing manager was heading from Iceland’s Keflavik International Airport to the capital city Reykjavik with the modern traveler’s two essentials: a dream and a GPSunit. What could go wrong?
The dream had been with him since April 14, 2010 when he watched TV news report of the volcano eruption in Iceland. Dark-haired, with a youthful face and thick eyebrows, he had never travelled beyond the United States and his native Mexico. “I want to see this through my own eyes,” he thought as he watched the news on his couch.
Four months later, on a cold winter morning, he was driving from Keflavik Airport in a rented car towards a hotel in Reykjavik, excited that his one-week journey was beginning. As the pink sun rose over the ocean and shone light on the snow-covered lava rocks along the shore, he dutifully followed the commands of the GPS that came with the car, a calm female voice directing him to an address—a left here, a right there.
But after stopping on a deserted road, he got a feeling that the voice might be steering (引导) him wrong. He had been driving for nearly an hour, yet the GPS put his arrival time at around eight hours later. He entered his destination again and got the same result. Though he sensed that something was off, he made a choice to trust the machine.
The farther he drove, the fewer cars he saw. The roads became icier. He was sleepy, cold and hungry. He hadn’t set up his phone for international use, so that was no help. Another three hours passed. As his tires skidded (打滑) along a narrow mountain road that skirted a steep cliff.he knew that the device had failed him.
He was lost. He didn’t know where else to go. There was no one else on the road, and there was nothing else to do but follow the line on the screen to its mysterious end.
Paragraph 1
The directions ended at a small blue house in a tiny town.
