201827. （2024•西安中学•九模）     The view you adopt for yourself significantly affects the way you lead your life.It can determine whether you become the person you want to be and whether you achieve the things you value.How does this happen？How can a simple belief have the power to transform your psychology and，as a result，your life？
    Believing that your qualities are carved in stone-the fixed mindset-create s an urgency to prove yourself over and over.Some of us are trained in this mindset from an early age.Even as a child，I was focused on being smart，but the fixed mindset was really stamped in by Mrs Wilson，my sixth grade teacher.She believed that people's IQ scores told the whole story of who they were.We were seated around the room in IQ order，and only the highest-IQ students could be trusted to collect homework，or take a note to the principal.She was creating a mindset in which everyone in the class had one consuming goal—look smart，don't look stupid.
    I've seen so many people with this consuming goal of proving themselves—in the classroom，in their careers，and in their relationships.Every situation calls for a confirmation of their intelligence，personality，or character.Every situation is evaluated：Will I succeed or fail？Will I look smart or stupid？Will I feel like a winner or a loser？
    But doesn't our society value intelligence，personality，and character？Isn't it normal to want these qualities？Yes，but...
    There's another mindset，the growth mindset，which is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can develop through your efforts.Everyone can change and grow through efforts and experience.Did you know that Darwin and Tolstoy were considered ordinary children？That the photographer Cindy Sherman，who has been on almost every list of the most important artists of the twentieth century，failed her first photography course？
    You can see how the belief that valuable qualities can be developed creates a passion for learning.Why waste time proving how great you are，when you could be getting better？Why hide weaknesses instead of overcoming them？The passion for stretching yourself and sticking to it，even when it's not going well，is the feature of the growth mindset.This is the mindset that allows people to achieve success during some of the most challenging times in their lives.

（1）What is the author's attitude toward Mrs Wilson's way of teaching？
A.Unconcerned.
B.Sceptical.
C.Supportive.
D.Neutral.
（2）According to paragraph 5，the example of Darwin and Tolstoy shows that        .
A.success has nothing to do with natural gifts
B.achievements can be gained through hard work
C.It's difficult to predict one's future success
D.One single outcome defines our ability
（3）The author strongly believes that we should        .
A.carry out an honest evaluation of our qualities
B.See success as a proof of intelligence or talent
C.Focus on self-development rather than self-proving
D.Believe good things will happen during difficult times
（4）The main purpose of the passage is to        .
A.explain the differences between two mindsets
B.persuade people to adopt the right mindset
C.inform people of the influence of the mindset
D.advise people to access their mindset

（1）推理判断题。根据文章第二段She believed that people's IQ scores told the whole story of who they were.We were seated around the room in IQ order，and only the highest﹣IQ students could be trusted to collect homework，or take a note to the principal.She was creating a mindset in which everyone in the class had one consuming goal—look smart，don't look stupid.（她认为，一个人的智商分数能反映出他是什么样的人。我们按照智商的顺序坐在教室里，只有智商最高的学生才能被信任去收作业，或者给校长留个便条。她正在创造一种心态，在这种心态下，班上的每个人都有一个消费目标——看起来聪明，不要看起来愚蠢。）以及第四段But doesn't our society value intelligence，personality，and character？Isn't it normal to want these qualities？Yes，but...（但是我们的社会不重视智力、个性和品格吗？想要这些品质不是很正常吗？是的，但是……）可知作者对这种按照智力去给学生贴上标签的教学方法是怀疑的，故选B项。
（2）细节理解题。根据第五段Everyone can change and grow through efforts and experience.（每个人都可以通过努力和经验来改变和成长。）可知作者引用Darwin和Tolstoy的例子想去证明每个人都可以通过努力和经历改变和成长。故选B项。
（3）推理判断题。根据文章第三段 I've seen so many people with this consuming goal of proving themselves—in the classroom，in their careers，and in their relationships.（我见过很多人在课堂上、在事业上、在人际关系上都有证明自己的强烈目标。）以及第五段Everyone can change and grow through efforts and experience.（每个人都可以通过努力和经验来改变和成长。）可见作者认为智力、个性和性格是证明自己的必要手段，但是每个人都可以通过努力和经历改变和成长，故作者认为我们应该注意自我发展而不是自我证明，故选C项。
（4）目的意图题。根据最后一段The passion for stretching yourself and sticking to it，even when it's not going well，is the feature of the growth mindset.This is the mindset that allows people to achieve success during some of the most challenging times in their lives.（成长型思维模式的特点是，即使进展不顺利，也要对自己的发展充满热情，并坚持下去。正是这种心态让人们在人生中最具挑战性的时刻取得成功。）可以推知，作者想通过本文劝说人们要采取正确心态面对生活。故选B项。

201826. （2024•西安中学•九模） In February of 1942，Mexican farmer Dionisio Pulido thought he heard thunder coming from his cornfield.However，the sound wasn't coming from the sky.The source was a large smoking break sending out gas and pushing out rocks.This opening would come to be known as the volcano Paricutin，and over the next 9 years，its lava and ash would cover over 200 square km.But where did this new volcano come from，and what caused its unpredictable eruption？
   One of the most common causes of an eruption is an increase in magmastatic（静磁）pressure.Magma（岩浆）contains various elements and compounds.At high enough concentrations，compounds like water or sulfur（硫）form high-pressure gas bubbles.When these balls of gas reach the surface，they can burst with the force of a gunshot.And when millions of bubbles explode，the energy can send ash into the air.But before they pop or burst，they act like bubbles of CO₂ in a shaken soda.
   Not all eruptions are due to rising magmastatic pressure- sometimes the weight of the rock above can become dangerously low.Landslides can remove massive quantities of rock from atop a magma chamber or room，dropping the pressure and instantly touching off an eruption.This process is known as "unloading" and it's been responsible for numerous eruptions，including the sudden explosion of Mount St.Helens in 1980.But unloading can also happen over longer periods of time due heating ice or melting glaciers.In fact，many geologists are worried that glacial melt caused by climate change could increase volcanic activity.
   Unfortunately，knowing what causes eruptions doesn't make them easy to predict.While scientists can roughly determine the strength and weight of the Earth's crust（地壳），the depth and heat of magma chambers makes measuring changes in magmastatic pressure very difficult.But volcanologists are constantly exploring new technology to overcome this rocky field.Advances in thermal imaging（热成像）have allowed scientists to detect underground hotspots.Spectrometers can analyze gases escaping magma.Hopefully，these tools will help us better understand these gas breaks and their explosive eruptions.

（1）Why does the author mention the story of a farmer in the first paragraph？
A．To show the power of volcano eruption.
B．To introduce the topic.
C．To introduce the volcano Paricutin.
D．To explain the reason.
（2）What does the underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refer to？
A．The bubbles of CO₂ .
B．The ash of the volcano.
C．Gas bubbles of compounds.
D．The elements of a soda.
（3）Which of the following is true about the eruption of Mount St.Helens？
A．Landslideould be responsible for its eruption.
B．It began to explode over a long period of time.
C．The process of "unloading" occurred after its explosion.
D．The weight of the rock above it increased as to cause its eruption.
（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A．Scientists can determine the eruption of volcano in advance.
B．It is quite difficult to measure the weight of the Earth's crust.
C．Spectrometers can help scientists to detect underground hotspots.
D．Scientists are positive about further study of volcano eruption.

201693. （2024•西工大附中•模拟） California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s，according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor．
    The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46，000 square miles of California forests，the new study finds．No area was spared or unaffected，from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles．In the Sierra high country，the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent；in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent．
   Many factors contributed to the decline，said Patrick Mclntyre，an ecologist who was the lead author of the study．Woodcutters targeted big trees．Housing development pushed into the woods．Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources（资源）．
   But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010，Mclntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development．
    The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage．The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed，taking into account such things as rainfall，air temperature，dampness of soil，and the timing of snowmelt（融雪）．
   Since the 1930s，Mclntyre said，the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures，which cause trees to lose more water to the air，and earlier snowmelt，which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season．

（1）What is the second paragraph mainly about？
A．The seriousness of big-tree loss in California．
B．The increasing variety of California big trees．
C．The distribution of big trees in California forests．
D．The influence of farming on big trees in California．
（2）Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees？
A．Ecological studies of forests．
B．Banning woodcutting．
C．Limiting housing development．
D．Fire control measures．
（3）What is a major cause of the water shortage according to Mclntyre？
A．Inadequate snowmelt．
B．A longer dry season．
C．A warmer climate．
D．Dampness of the air．
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．California's Forests：Where Have All the Big Trees Gone？
B．Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon．
C．Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests？
D．Patrick Mclntyre：Grow More Big Trees in California

201550. （2025•西安中学•一模）     As part of a post-fire response and recovery project，the Debris Flow Hazard Team（泥石流危害小组） is engaging in several studies to better understand the drivers of post-fire debris flows and improve post-fire hazard assessments across the Pacific Northwest.Wildfires make debris flows easy to happen，a fast-moving mixture of water，soil，and rock that can cause property damage and loss of life.
    After a wildfire，emergency managers need rapid answers to the questions：Where are debris flows likely？How much rain will it take to cause a debris flow？And how big will that debris flow be？Researchers are conducting applied research and emergency hazard assessments to answer these questions.Evaluated burn areas they've assessed included the nearly 2021 Dixie fire，the 2020 Labor Day wildfires，and many of the 2021 wildfires in Washington.
    The models used for hazard assessment have been developed and tested in drier places.But the models have not been tested widely in wetter places.Are the models accurate for wetter regions？Researchers have begun monitoring post-fire debris-flow activity in wetter places to answer the question.Post-fire monitoring involves measuring the rainfall within the burned areas and recording the flow response after rainstorms.The observed flow response is compared to the predicted possibility.If the model predicted a high possibility of debris flow and there was a debris flow，the model got it right.
    Recent data bespeaks both similarities and differences in debris-flow processes between the areas with higher humidity（湿度） and drier areas.For example，in the 2021 Dixie fire，major debris flows were caused by short bursts of intense rainfall like they are in drier places.In contrast，debris flows in the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire were caused by long time rainfall.Continued observation and testing is expected to lead to an improved set of hazard assessment models.
    Other frequently asked questions after wildfires are：How far will debris flows travel？What will be impacted？And how long will the burned areas remain dangerous？These questions are presently not resolved in current debris-flow hazard assessments，but the researchers are doing research to provide answers soon.

（1）What is the first paragraph mainly about？
A.Contents included in a project.
B.Hazards caused by debris flows.
C.Causes of post-fire debris flows.
D.Reasons for conducting the studies.
（2）What places are current studies focusing on？
A.Places seldom noticed.
B.Places with debris flow records.
C.Places with higher humidity.
D.Places once affected by wildfires.
（3）What does the underlined word"bespeaks"mean in paragraph 4？
A.Replaces.
B.Reveals.
C.Recognizes.
D.Recommends.
（4）What may be included in the next studies according to the text？
A.Methods to prevent debris flows.
B.Possible effects of debris flows.
C.The lasting time of the debris flows.
D.Other risks in the burned areas.

201807. （2024•西安中学•七模）     Harvard scientists have engineered a group of fish that swims autonomously.Researchers say the experiment could advance pacemaker（起搏器） technology and improve the development of artificial hearts for humans.
    Researchers built the fish using paper，two parts of heart muscle tissue —one on the left side and one on the right —and a plastic fin.A contraction on one side caused the muscle on the other side to stretch.The stretching then caused those cells to contract，which moved the tail from side to side and allowed it to swim on its own.The muscle cells were from human stem cells.The researchers also engineered an autonomous pacing node，which acted like a pacemaker by controlling the rhythm and frequency of the contractions.
    The fish moved autonomously for over 108 days，which is equal to 38 million beats，the study states.Because heart cells constantly rebuild themselves，which takes about 20 days，the fish cells rebuilt themselves a total of about five times over，says Kit Parker，a professor from Harvard University who led the research.
    Years ago，Parker was disappointed with the state of heart treatment. "It occurred to me in 2007 that we might have failed to understand the fundamental laws of muscular pumps，" he said in a 2012 statement.Then，on a trip to the museum with his daughter，he spotted a special fish. "I'm looking at it，thinking， 'It pumps，it looks like a heart pump，and I could build that thing.'" In 2012，his team created a fish that swam using rat heart cells，and then a ray fish with rat heart cells in 2016.
    Though the researchers say the fish is a step forward for heart research，it could be years before it leads to the creation of an artificial heart，says Michael Schneider，a professor at Imperial College London，who wasn't involved in the study.But that doesn't dismay Parker. "I think other methods will be faster than us，" says Parker. "But in the long run，creating tissue that relies on the patient's own cells could offer unexpected benefits."

（1）What made the fish swim autonomously in the experiment？
A.The special paper.
B.The push of the fin.
C.Muscle contractions.
D.The support of the tail.
（2）What result probably impressed the researchers most？
A.The power of the pacing node.
B.The swimming speed of the fish.
C.The fish's lasting swimming time.
D.The rhythm of the fish's movement.
（3）Why is Parker's trip to the museum mentioned in Paragraph 4？
A.It gave Parker a good memory.
B.It made Parker find inspiration.
C.It removed Parker's disappointment.
D.It introduced Parker to a special fish.
（4）What does the underlined word "dismay" mean in the last paragraph？
A.Depress.
B.Annoy.
C.Embarrass.

201808. （2024•西安中学•七模）     In a new study，researchers found that invasive insects in the United States could kill approximately 1.4 million urban trees by 2050，which would cost over ＄900 million to replace，reports Vishwam Sankaran for the Independent.
    Hot spots predicted to have the most urban tree mortality（死亡率） were Milwaukee，Wisconsin；Chicago，Illinois；and New York，New York.The study，published in the Journal of Applied Ecology，is the first nationwide forecast of street tree mortality from invasive insects.
    The emerald ash borer is an invasive beetle native to Asia.It was first detected in 2002 in southeastern Michigan，and experts suspect it was brought into the United States on wood packing material carried on cargo ships or airplanes traveling from Asia.Since then，the bug has been damaging ash trees.In the last two decades since the insect was first detected，numerous trees have been killed in North America.
    Data collected from 30，000 communities across the country was used to estimate tree mortality in the next 30 years.The researchers combined this data with a model that predicted the spread of 57 different invasive insect species.Their resultow emerald ash borers alone could cause 90% of the estimated 1.4 million tree deaths.Ash borers are already predicted to "kill virtually all ash trees" in over 6，000 urban areas，according to Newsweek.
    Less than 25% of 30，000 urban areas in the U.S.are expected to experience 95% of all street-tree mortality，reports Adam Barnes for the Hill.The areas that will experience the most tree loss include cities in the Midwest and East Coast.These locations are expected to have the most tree loss because large numbers of ash trees occupy the streets and parks in these areas，reported the Independent.
    When it comes to how to save urban areas from becoming treeless，study author Emma Hudgins，a biologist at McGill University，says， "These results can hopefully provide a cautionary tale against planting a single species of tree throughout entire cities，as has been done with ash trees in North America.Planting various trees provides resilience against pest infestations（侵扰）."

（1）What can we know about the emerald ash borer？
A.It is an invasive beetle in Asia.
B.It was first found by the Michigan people.
C.It has killed numerous trees in America.
D.They definitely enter the U.S.by cargo ships or airplanes.
（2）What is the fourth paragraph intended to describe？
A.The purpose of the research.
B.The conclusion of the research.
C.The significance of the research.
D.The process and result of the research.
（3）What can be inferred from the fifth paragraph？
A.Pest infestations are taking place across the country.
B.The insect's invasion won't spread equally in America.
C.Tree loss is the main cause of environmental problems.
D.Ash trees are being removed from many areas in the U.S.
（4）What suggestion does Emma Hudgins provide？
A.Getting different types of trees planted.
B.Replacing foreign trees with local ones.
C.Getting more trees planted in more areas.
D.Planting trees resistant to pest infestations.

201825. （2024•西安中学•九模）     From the world's last seven to a global population of more than 5，000，China spent nearly 40 years bringing back crested ibises（朱鹗）from the edge of extinction.
    With its typical red crest and face，as well as a long black mouth and snow-white feathers，the crested ibis is known as "the oriental gem" in China.They were once widespread in East Asia and Siberia until the 20th century when hunting，ecological damage and increased human activities drove the birds to near extinction.
    In 1981，the entire species around the world was down to the seven crested ibises which were found only in Yangxian County，northwest China's Shaanxi Province，and deep in the Qinling Mountains，making Qinling，a natural boundary between China's north and south，the last shelter of the wild birds.
    Since 1981，the local government of Yangxian County has put forward four bans for the protection of the species，prohibiting activities including hunting in the birds' living areas，cutting down trees where they nest，using chemicals in their food-finding areas，and firing guns in their breeding（繁殖）areas.The Chinese government arranged special funds to protect the habitat of crested ibises，sealing off mountains to plant trees in the birds' living areas.China started the artificial breeding of crested ibises in 1991 and had bred more than 400 birds in Shaanxi as of last year.
    Years of constant effort have brought promising results.It is estimated that there are more than 5，000 crested ibises in the world now，and a majority of them live in Shaanxi.The bird's habitat in China has risen from less than 5 square km in 1981 to the current 15，000 square km.
    "It is lucky that the crested ibis，an ancient bird，is still flying around，" said Zan Linsen，head of the Shaanxi Academy of Forestry. "The conservation story of crested ibises not only shows us the power of ancient life，but also the necessity and urgency of ecological environment protection."

（1）Why are the Qinling Mountains so important to crested ibises？
A．They are where crested ibises were first found.
B．They used to be the last habitat of crested ibises.
C．They are the only breeding area of crested ibises.
D．They protect crested ibises from natural enemies.
（2）What can we conclude from paragraph 4？
A．Crested ibises are unlikely to be bred artificially.
B．It's legal to own hunting guns in Yangxian County.
C．Hunting has been the biggest threat to crested ibises.
D．The government plays a key role in saving crested ibises.
（3）How does Zan Linsen feel about the conservation of crested ibises？
A．Merciful and ambitious.
B．Relieved and happy.
C．Shocked and curious.
D．Sorry and regretful.
（4）What is a suitable title for the text？
A．Rare animals in China：crested ibises
B．Artificial breeding of crested ibises in China
C．Endangered crested ibises making a comeback
D．Crested ibises found again in the Qinling Mountains

201845. （2024•西安一中•二模）     A carbon footprint is only one component of the broader ecological footprint.An ecological footprint compares the population's consumption of resources and land with the planet's ability to regenerate.The Earth's ecological footprint is currently 23 percent over capacity.It takes about one year and two months to regenerate what we consume in a year.
    Carbon footprints help people keep track of changes.Because footprints quantify an amount of carbon that increases or decreases based on energy use，they let people know that a new hybrid car or home insulation （隔离） helps.Transportation accounts for 33 percent of CO₂ emissions in the United States，so many people try to lower their mileage （里程）.Some walk or bike whenever possible；others take public transport.Home energyuse accounts for 21 percent of U.S.CO₂ emissions，so it helps to have an efficient home.Setting the thermostat （恒温器） at a moderate temperature and installing double-paned windows lowers energy costs.
    Of course，individual efforts can go only so far.Cutting CO₂ and other greenhouse gases down to safer levels requires significant government regulation.Lessening carbon footprints does let people see where they are and how they can change.Those who want to accept personal responsibility for their emissions can track their own reductions and change their habits.
    Because carbon calculators ask for only rough estimates，it's easy for investigators to approximate the footprints of celebrities and politicians.Analysts hope to uncover high-profile figures，especially those who promote environmentalism.Although performer Madonna and other celebrities have been accused of flying frequently，former vice president Al Gore has drawn the harshest accusations.The Gores' spokesperson did not deny that but emphasized that the couple subscribes to green power.

（1）How long can the Earth produce what we need in a year？        ?
A.2 months.
B.12 months.
C.14 months.
D.23 months.
（2）What is the second paragraph mainly about？        ?
A.Why people are worried about CO₂ emissions.
B.How individuals can help to lower CO₂ emissions.
C.Where most CO₂ emissions come from in the United States.
D.What measures have been taken to cut down CO₂ emissions.
（3）What is still needed to cut greenhouse gases down to safer levels？        ?
A.The participation of the public.
B.The development of new equipment.
C.The changes of our living habits.
D.The powerful efforts of the government.
（4）Why do investigators estimate the footprints of famous people easily？        ?
A.Because they have mastered methods.
B.Because it doesn't call for much accuracy.

201864. （2024•西安一中•三模）     The 2023 EF English Proficiency （水平） Index （EPI） that measures English language ability worldwide shows a worrying problem about English language proficiency.The index is based on test results from 2.2 million people in 113 countries.
    Results were reported for the first time in 2015.Since then，the English proficiency of young people has decreased by 89 points.The EPI defines young people as being 18 to 20 years of age，and it notes that they are mostly stable with big decreases in a few large countries.India，Indonesia and Mexico showed the largest ability decreases among youth.
    The report noted that the decrease appears to have taken place when the COVID-19 pandemic impacts normal education.There has been a decrease in Mexico for nearly 10 years.However，working adults，about 26 years old and older，have been improving their English since 2015.It is still widely acknowledged that the value of a shared language is most recognized in the workplace.English creates possibilities for individuals and productivity for organizations.
    Results also show a difference between men and women，which is called a gender gap.Men's English ability has improved by 14 points since 2015，while women's has decreased by 19 points.The lack of women in international jobs is one reason for the gender gap.But the gender gap among those aged 18 to 25 might demonstrate a problem caused by educational systems themselves or a social problem schools are failing to address.
    There are different opinions about why the decrease exists.Many people think artificial intelligence （or AI） tools could also be a key reason.Jeannie Tse is a country manager at EF Hong Kong and Macau.He thinks that while AI has changed the way young people work and learn，the importance of schools，teachers and face-to-face instruction remains. "I don't believe that AI can completely replace language learning，but educators can use AI to enhance language learning methods，" said Jeannie Tse.

（1）Why are working adults trying to improve their English？        ?
A．To increase their income and knowledge.
B．To be involved in better working environment.

201883. （2024•周至县•一模）     The fishermen of Senegal have joined forces to protect one of the ocean's most endangered species—the sea turtle，a classic case of "poacher turned gamekeeper".
    The coastal waters of Senegal in West Africa are home to several species of sea turtles which are all beautiful creatures but are affected by pollution，poaching and even fishing nets.
    "Once we were the biggest eaters of turtles，now we have become their biggest protectors，" said Abdou Karim Sall，a fisherman who led the Management Committee for the Marine Protected Are （MPA）of Joal-Fadiouth.
    The Joal-Fadiouth MPA，covering about 174 square kilometers，was founded in 2004，and it's upheld by the government，local authorities and several associations.It is an area aimed at protecting mar in e ecosystem，habitats and species，including endangered species like the sea turtle.Its benefits are obvious：maintaining biodiversity，increasing fish catches on fishing grounds，as well as economic development.
    For a long time，Sall has been working to raise local awareness of sea turtle protection. "Even former turtle sellers have been 'changed' by receiving three small boats to take tourists to sea，" he said.Instead of strict restrictions，the Joal-Fadiouth MPA has been trying to educate local communities about the economic benefits so that they would join the project. "It's after they are told： 'It's an endangered species'，" Sall said.
    Local residents have also set out to protect the nests.During summer and fall，a few dozen turtles may stop to lay eggs on the beaches of Joal-Fadiouth.MPA agents and village volunteers pro test their nests with fences. "People come at 6 a.m.so that other animals do not take the young." said Sall.
    Sall added the number of turtles had decreased by about 30% in the past 20 years，and chances of survival of a young turtle were no higher than one in a thousand.But the fisherman-conservator agreed， "Awareness has not worked 100%."

（1）What does the underlined word "upheld" in Paragraph 4 mean？
A.Hurt.
B.Ignored.
C.Supported.

201865. （2024•西安一中•三模）     Fossils （化石），the preserved remains of ancient life，serve as windows into the Earth's rich history.The formation of the fossils is a wonderful journey that unfolds over vast stretches of time，catching good views of the diversity of life that once lived on our planet.
    The journey often starts with the death of an organism in a specific environment.Whether it's a plant，animal or microscopic organisms，the key factor lies in whether the remains are quickly buried.This initial step is critical to protect the organism from its enemies and environmental factors that could lead to breakdown.
    As the remains are buried，they experience layers of sediment （沉积层）.Over time，more layers gather，pressing the lower sediments.This process，known as sedimentation，plays a crucial role in preserving the remains by creating a protective environment that protects them from being destroyed.
    Mineralization is also a key period in the fossilization process.It involves the infiltration （过滤） of minerals into the organic tissues of the buried remains.Groundwater，rich in minerals moves through these layers.The minerals replace the original organic material，transforming the remains into rock-like forms.
    Sometimes，fossilization goes beyond mineralization to a process called petrification.Petrified fossils occur when the organic material is entirely replaced by minerals，often resulting in a good copy of the original organism.This transformation can preserve complex details，such as the skeletal features of animals.For softer organisms or parts like leaves or feathers，the fossilization process involves pressure.Under the weight of sediments，these delicate structures flatten but leave behind detailed imprints.
    The final step in the journey comes when geological processes expose the fossilized remains.Archaeologists then unearth these treasures，revealing the secrets of Earth's ancient inhabitants.This scientific exploration contributes to our understanding of evolution，biodiversity，and the ever-changing landscapes that have shaped the history of life on our planet.

（1）What is the role of fossils in the modern times？        ?
A．To help protect our environment.
B．To help explore the function of the Earth.
C．To enhance knowing the long history of the universe.
D．To provide an insight into the diverse life forms.
（2）Which of the following is the first step of fossilization？        ?
A．The quick pressure caused by rocks.
B．The quick transformation of the remains.
C．The rapid burial of the remains.
D．The mix of groundwater and minerals.
（3）How can a good copy of organisms form？        ?
A．By fossils petrified when minerals replace the organic material.
B．By groundwater moving through them.
C．By accumulating more pressure on them.
D．By creating a protective environment.
（4）What's the text mainly about？        ?
A．The importance of fossils.
B．The process of fossilization.
C．The evolution of ancient animals.
D．The preservation of the remains.
