205256. （2021•阎良区•高一下期末） Plenty of science fiction （sci-fi） movies over the decades have shown us different versions of Mars.The truth about the Martian surface might be exciting because it's real.And with NASA's Mars 2020 mission set to launch this summer，we're facing more discovery.
   So far，thanks to a decade of research enabled by NASA's Curiosity rover，we've learned that lakes，rivers streams and likely oceans used to appear on Mars.While its water disappeared over three billion years ago，it tells us that Mars used to be habitable.This knowledge confuses us because so far，we've seen no clear evidence of life there，not even a virus.But if Mars was once habitable，wouldn't it have life？NASA is now prepared to take the next step to answer this question with the launch of another rover （探测器），Perseverance.Every time a rover goes to Mars，it just stays there，with no way to fly back home.So we have never brought rock or soil samples back from Mars.
   Perseverance rover will change this.Its primary and unique purpose is to collect samples that a future spacecraft can return to Earth.These samples will tell us more about the geologic history of Mars than anything we've learned，which is already a lot.Since 2012，the Curiosity rover has traveled more than a dozen miles，making observations along the way with its 10 instruments.
   Thanks to data from the Curiosity rovers Sample Analysis at Mars instrument，we know that Mars does indeed have organic materials.That's more complex than we expected to find on the surface of Mars.And that's exactly why we want to gather the most interesting samples and bring them back to Earth.We expect to find out much more about Mars once we get samples back from the Mars 2020 mission.

（1）What is the purpose of Mars 2020 Mission？
A．To study the life on Mars.
B．To travel around the universe.
C．To show the power of NASA.
D．To explore the Martian surface.
（2）What does the underlined word "habitable" in Paragraph 2 probably mean？
A．Enjoyable to visit.
B．Suitable for living.
C．Ready for changes.
D．Convenient to travel.
（3）What was the problem with Mars exploration before Perseverance？
A．The rovers could not reach Mars.
B．Observations were hard to make.
C．Samples on Mars couldn't be brought back.
D．Study instruments got lost in the space station.
（4）Which of the following can be the best title of the text？
A．New Mars Rover to be Launched
B．Sci-fi Movies on Mars to be Made
G．Curiosity to Bring Back Mars Samples
D．NASA to Send Manned Rover to Mars

205153. （2022•西安八十九中•高一下期末） Richard Turere walks through his family's farm just outside Nairobi National Park in Kenya.Goats，cows，and sheep eat grass peacefully on the farm while in the park nearby，lions wander leisurcly，living in peace with the livestock （家畜）. An extraordinary picture! How do livestock manage to live safely near these huge lions？It' s all due to this young man's brilliant invention-Lion Lights.
   Livestock is his family' s entire livelihood--which is why whenever lions attacked their goats，sheep，or cattle，it was disastrous.There seemed to be no good solution to the problem until Richard began working on it.After a lion killed his family's only bull，Richard started experimenting with ways to scare off the lions.His first two attempts--fire and then a scarecrow--were unsuccessful.But one night when he was walking around with a flashlight，he noticed that lions stayed away.That's when he realized：these big cats were afraid of moving lights!
   Then Richard--who'd taken apart and studied machines since he was very small—began experimenting.Despite his lack of any formal training in electrical engineering，he fitted a system of flashing LED lights on poles around the farm.The flashing lights，which he made from vehicle indicator flashers，car batteries，and a solar panel，tricked the lions into thinking the grounds were guarded，keeping the lions away.
   The word got out about the brilliant "lion-lights boy".Soon Richard was fixing the Lion Lights system for neighbors.Later，his invention won him a scholarship to Kenya's well-known Brookhouse International School.And when Richard was 13，he was invited to California to speak about his invention at a TED conference.These days，Richard still lives on his family's farm，and fixes the Lion Lights system for people all over Kenya，which functions efficiently.He dreams of becoming an airplane engineer and pilot，but he also works to arouse people's awareness about the need to support young Kenyan inventors like himself.

204040. （2023•西安中学•高一下期末）     The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during Field Day in elementary school.
   Small for my age，and more of a bookworm than a sports enthusiast，I had suffered that special humiliation of being picked last for various gym teams.But Field Day，which focused on individual skills，was different.
   In the softball throw event，I got my first taste of sporting victory.Credit goes to the example of my first coach，my father.He lifted weights every morning at home.He bought us all baseball gloves and hats，and in the warm months，we spent hours playing catch.With the fall coming，our backyard football games began with passing practice.
   Once I got to sixth grade and switched to private school，our entire student body was assigned to either the red team or the white team.Throughout the year，we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points.I eventually became president of The Committee of Games，accelerating my competitive fever.However，in girls' sports games at my school，I was no star.I also played on the field hockey team and the basketball team.
   School sports did not bleed into the weekends，as they do today，but at home，playing tennis，skating，skiing and biking were simply normal things we did.
   During downtime，magazines were also quite popular for us teens.These regularly featured articles on physical exercise.Somehow，my college roommate and I took up the habit of completing Royal Canadian Air Force （RCAF） exercises every day，a practice that continued into my marriage，when we had no spare funds to use to join a gym.
   So，though it shocks some of our friends，that early foundation evolved （进化） in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus，considered essential even on vacation.
   I still love reading and the arts，too.As far as I'm concerned，life is richest with my feet in both worlds.

（1）What does the underlined word "humiliation" mean in paragraph 2？
A．shame.
B．desire.
C．responsibility.
D．disappointment.
（2）What did the author owe her victory in the softball throw event to？
A．Her advanced sportswear.
B．Her confidence in her sports ability.
C．The sports talent passed on in her family.
D．The guidance and training offered by her father.
（3）Which word best describes the author's relationship with sports as an adult？
A．Cooperative.
B．Uneasy.
C．Inseparable.
D．Casual.
（4）Which can be a suitable title for the text？
A．My Inborn Interest in Sports
B．The Benefits of Physical Exercise
C．My Childhood Memories of Father
D．My Passion for Sports and Fitness

204080. （2023•西安中学•高一上期末） If English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong.Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language？
   According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power.Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter.This is the area of the brain which processes information.It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.
   The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language.A team led by Dr.Andrea Mechelli，from London University，took a group of Britain people who only spoke English.They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners.
   Scanowed that grey matter density in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language.But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference was.
   "Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，" said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.
   Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and math skill. "Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible，" he said. "You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."
   The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34.Reading，writing and comprehension were all tested.The resultowed that the younger they started to learn，the better. "Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，" explained the scientists.

204164. （2023•周至四中•高二下期末）     Eight months after my father died，I saw some letters on top of my mother's coffee table.They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father's neat handwriting.I couldn't imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.
    "Would you like me to read them to you？"Mom asked with a hint of a smile.
    The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved，sick mother，leaving his wife and me，their newborn daughter，behind in Toronto，the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956.
    Growing up，my father was my hero and protector，but he was also a man of few words，part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.
    I sat back while my mother read his letters to me，and thought，"Who is this guy？"My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say.He referred to my mother as "my dearest"and "my companion"who was always in his thoughts.In each letter，he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared，"You and your mother are my life."
    As children，we assume we know everything about our parents.But，sometimes，we find that they were and are people with various facets.
    My father was proud and stubborn，and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard.During their 58-year marriage，their stubbornness often led to conflict .So it was bittersweet to hear my father's youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful（留恋的） tone.I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time.After she finished reading the letters，I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils.Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts，he had filled the front and back of several pages.
    These letters are only part of their correspondence.My mother wrote back to my father.One day she will read those letters to me，which she's assured me.And just as with my father，they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.

（1）What kind of person did the author think her father was？
A．Violent.
B．Optimistic.
C．Sensitive.
D．Reserved.
（2）What can we know about the author's parents according to the text？
A．Her father worked in Italy.
B．They didn't get on well with each other.
C．They were identical in terms of stubbornness.
D．Her mother didn't reply to the letters from her father.
（3）What does the underlined word"facets"in Paragraph 6 most probably mean？
A．Divisions.
B．Dimensions.
C．Goals.
D．Interests.
（4）Which of the following is the best title for the text？
A．A Different Father in Love Letters.
B．The Hidden Sides of My Parents.
C．In Memory of My Late Father.
D．Love Stories of My Parents.

204298. （2023•西咸新区•高二下期末）     When I was a kid，a sycamore （枫树） grew in front of my home.At the age of 10，I was just tall enough to reach its lowest branch and lift myself into its embrace.Sometimes two or three of my friends would join me in the sycamore，or in the maple down the street，or Mrs.DiMarco's old peach tree，some of whose stout horizontal branches allowed us to sit shoulder to shoulder，eating sweet fruit.
    In my small town there are some kinds of trees，their branches spreading wide，open for business.But I have not yet seen a climber.Perhaps computer games have replaced tree climbing，or maybe the activity went the way of monkey bars，which came to be viewed as too risky and have largely disappeared from playgrounds.
    It is a sad loss.I have always believed that，since low-hanging branches provide no benefit to the tree，they must be meant for the child.Robert Frost understood this when he wrote：
    When I see baches （桦树） bend to left and right，
    Across the lines of straighter darker trees，
    I like to think some boy's been swinging them.
    My only disagreement with Frost is his inference that tree climbing is a gender-specific task.Both boys and girls make a joyful climb.
    The campus of the university where I teach has all sorts of trees.During a recent walk，I found myself bending under the branch of an immense spruce （云杉）.I grabbed the thing，and a moment later was sitting on a branch.Then the memories came flooding back.The old sycamore，the friends，and finally，the reluctance to return to earth when the parental call to supper came.
    I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't hear the student calling to me from below.He asked what I was doing.I didn't waste time on explanations. "Come on up，" I said "The air's fine." But he only laughed and waved me off.He didn't know what he was missing.

（1）What does the underlined word "stout" in Paragraph 1 probably mean？
A．Slim.
B．Bent.
C．Smooth.
D．Strong.
（2）What is the second paragraph mainly about？
A．Why kids don't climb trees.
B．Why monkey bars are dangerous.
C．Why there is no business under trees.
D．Why kids are addicted to computer games.
（3）What does the author want to prove by mentioning Robert's poem？
A．Some branches of trees are useless.
B．Trees are intended for kids to climb.
C．Trees are a source of inspiration for poets.
D．Climbing trees is a unique right of boys.
（4）What did the author think the student had missed？
A．The explanations to his question.
B．The fresh air above the tree.
C．The pleasure of climbing trees.
D．The sense of safety on earth.

205061. （2022•蓝田县•高一下期末） Hamburgers，French fries，potato chips，popcorn，and pizza.There is no denying these foods are tasty.But often，it's the added salt that makes them so appealing.One result：U.S.kids are eating too much salty fare.
   Table salt is about 40% sodium（钠）.Our bodies need some sodium to work properly.But too much of it is not healthy.
   A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control（CDC）looked at the eating habits of 2，142 children between the ages of 6 and 18.It found that their average sodium intake was 3，256 milligrams per day.That equals nearly 1.5 teaspoons each day，which is 50% more than current guidelines recommend.
   Zerleen Quader is the study's lead author. "Eating too much sodium now can set kids up for health problems later，" she said.
   Much of the sodium that kids eat comes from processed foods.But potato chips and other salty snacks aren't the only culprits.There are other sodium sources - like bread and cold cuts - adding to the salt overload.
   All this added salt can raise blood pressure and，with it，the risk of a heart attack and other health problems.Today，1 in 9 children has raised blood pressure.There's good news though.Lowering salt intake can lower blood pressure.
   That，of course，is easier said than done.The more salty foods you eat，the more you develop a taste for them.The key to changing your diet is to start small. "Small changes in sodium in foods are not usually noticed，" Quader says.Eventually，she adds，the effort will reset a kid's taste buds（味蕾）so the salt desires stop.
   Need a little inspiration？Dietitian Bridget Murphy advises focusing on the immediate effects of a diet that is high in sodium.High blood pressure can make it difficult to be active. "Do you want to be able to think clearly and perform well in school？" she asks. "If you're an athlete，do you want to run faster？" If you answered yes to these questions，then it's time to shake the salt habit.

（1）What did the recent CDC study find？
A．The present advised salt intake is too high.
B．Teenagers have good dietary habits.
C．American kids have too much salt.
D．Proper sodium intake benefits human health.
（2）Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "culprits" in Paragraph 5？
A．Criminals.
B．Results.
C．Types.
D．Surprises.
（3）What is Quader's advice for kids？
A．Eat salt-free foods.
B．Have a low-sodium diet.
C．Keep away from junk food.
D．Take enough exercise regularly.
（4）According to Murphy，a salty diet will probably        .
A．help you have a quick mind
B．increase your running speed
C．make you relatively inactive
D．keep you hungry but spirited
