   The name comes from the long poem Tianwen,meaning Heavenly Questions or Questions to Heaven,written by Qu Yuan,one of the greatest poets of ancient China.In Tianwen,this name conveys the Chinese nation's steady effort in pursuing truth and culture of exploring nature and the universe.CNSA also unveiled(发布)the logo of China's planetary exploration missions,featuring the letter C,signifying China,international cooperation and capacity of entering space.
   Tianwen 1 has flown for 197 days and more than 465 million kilometers on its journey to the planet.It is now around 184 million km from Earth and 1.1 million km from Mars.Depending on the two planets' orbits,Mars is between 55 and 400 million km from Earth.Mars probe Tianwen 1 is seen in its first selfies in space on Oct.1,2020.The administration also published a black-and-white picture of Mars taken by Tianwen 1,the first snapshot (抓拍的照片)from the Chinese craft.
   Tianwen 1,the country's first independent Mars mission,was launched by a Long March 5 heavy-lift carrier rocket on July 23 from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan province,kicking off the nation's planetary exploration program.
   A successful landing would make China only the second nation to place a spacecraft on the Martian planet.China would also be the first to successfully orbit,land and deploy(部署)a vehicle in the same mission.According to experts,searching for signs of life on Mars will be the first and foremost scientific goal.China is open and inclusive in the development of its space technology not least because it believes that the exploration of outer space should help build a community with a shared future for mankind.

C.Tianwen 1 made its fifth orbital correction around Feb.10.

13. (本题8分) A new study,published in The Journal of Experimental Psychology,found that communication interactions that included voice,like a phone call or video chat,created stronger social bonds than communication through typing,like text messaging or email.
   In the study,researchers used various experiments to gauge(测量) connectedness.In one,they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then assigned people at random to do one or the other.Although people anticipated(预料) that a phone call would be more awkward,hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better.However,people who participated in the experiment reported that they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone versus email,and they did not feel more awkward.
   In another experiment,the researchers had strangers connected by either texting,talking over video chat,or talking using only audio.They found that both forms of voice communication - whether video or audio only - made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated via text.
   Sabrina Romanoff,a Harvard trained clinical psychologist based in New York City,says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience,as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can "correspond information exactly in the way they intend without unexpected additions by the other person."
   Romanoff says that in reality,texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation.A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message.Each party is more present,and therefore,able to gauge the meaning behind the content without ruminating (认真思考) on the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.

(1)What is the purpose of the study?        
A.To encourage people to let their fingers do the talking.
B.To introduce the effects of verbal and non-verbal communications.
C.To demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of making phone calls.
D.To compare connectedness of communication through voice and typing.
(2)Which way will make you feel more connected if you miss a friend far away?        
A.Typing a letter.
B.Sending an email.
C.Having a video chat.
D.Texting a message.
(3)What does "a controlled form of communication" refer to in Paragraph 4?        
A.A way to talk about controlled topics.
B.A way to communicate without time limit.
C.A way to explain something without delay.
D.A way to express thoughts without being disturbed.
(4)What advantage does making phone calls over texting?        
A.Being more formal.
B.Being less awkward.
C.Being more straightforward.
D.Being less expensive.
14. (本题8分) A living,bio-degradable (可生物降解的)fabric named "Biogarmentry" has been invented.Made from algae (藻),the textile (纺织品) purifies the air around it through photosynthesis (光合作用).
   Researchers claim it's the first living textile,and have fashioned the material into sheer,cloak-like garment.While prototypes (雏形) like these are still in the early stages of research and design,and far from mass production,they challenge the fashion industry to reimagine ways it can reduce its large carbon footprint through alternative fabrics.
   Fashion is one of the world's most polluting industries.It's responsible for more carbon emissions than international flights and shipping combined,amounting to 10% of all greenhouse gasses emitted globally.The crops traditionally used to make clothing absorb carbon as they grow,but most natural materials are still carbon emitters.Take a single T-shirt made of cotton as an example.The estimated footprint of a cotton shirt over its lifetime is 15 kilograms (33 pounds) of carbon dioxide,with most of that emitted during the energy-intensive production and dyeing(染色) processes.
   In recent years,environmental start-ups have proposed a number of alternative natural fibres,many of which have the potential to sequester carbon but none have been shown to achieve zero emissions.As algae has the ability to trap carbon,a carbon-negative raincoat made of marine algae has been created.Algae-based materials are,currently,where electric vehicle technologies were a decade ago.The technology is now ready for prime time.When the resulting garments are commercially available,we can imagine people wearing their own organic cloak,spraying their organism as they go to work and encouraging their algae to purify the air.

(1)What's the text mainly about?       
A.A textile helping purify the air.
B.An industry causing pollution.
C.A way to achieve zero-emission.
D.A trend in the fashion industry.
(2)Which of the following is the most environmentally-friendly?       
A.An international flight.
B.Clothing made of cotton.
C.A petrol-powered vehicle.
D.A raincoat made of algae.
(3)What does the underlined word "sequester" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?       
A.increase.
B.create.
C.trap.
D.release.
(4)Which word best describes the author's attitude to algae-based materials?       
A.Skeptical.
B.Optimistic.
C.Conservative.
D.Objective.
三、短文填空(1小题共10分)
15. (本题10分) The Flynn Effect The Flynn effect,first described in the 1980s by researcher James Flynn,refers to the finding that scores on IQ tests have increased in the past century.One research paper,published by psychologist Lisa Trahan and her colleagues,combined the results of other published studies and found that IQ scores have indeed increased since the 1950s.(1)       .Trahan and her colleagues observed, "The existence of the Flynn effect is rarely disputed."
  (2)       .One explanation has to do with improvements in health and nutrition.For example,the past century has seen a decrease in smoking and alcohol use in pregnancy,improvements in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases,and improvements in nutrition.As Scott Barry Kaufman writes for Psychology Today, "The Flynn effect serves as a reminder that when we give people more opportunities to prosper,more people do prosper."
  (3)       .In a TED talk,Flynn explains that the world today is "a world where we've had to develop new mental habits,new habits of mind." Flynn has found that IQ scores have increased the most rapidly on questions that ask us to find similarities between different things,and more abstract types of problem solving,both of which are things that we need to do more of in the modern world.
   Several ideas have been brought up to explain why modern society might lead to higher scores on IQ tests.For example,today,many more of us have demanding,intellectually rigorous jobs.Schools have also changed:whereas a test at school in the early 1900s might have been more focused on memorization,a recent test might be more likely to focus on explaining the reasons for something.(4)       .Family sizes tend to be smaller,and it has been suggested that this may allow children to pick up on new vocabulary words while interacting with their parents.It's even been suggested that the entertainment we consume is more complex today. (5)       .
   Therefore,both the education we receive and the society we live in shape our IQ in a way that we cannot imagine.

A.In other words,there is a lot about IQ that we may not know yet.
B.Another explanation for the Flynn effect has to do with societal changes
C.Researchers have put forward several theories to explain the Flynn effect.
D.Trying to understand and anticipate plot points may actually be making us smarter.
E.Although there have been exceptions,IQ scores have generally increased over time.
F.Additionally,more people today are likely to finish high school and go on to college.
G.The Flynn effect shows that human mind is more adaptable than we might have thought.
