【题目】 The winner of the fifth season of the China Central Television's Chinese Poetry Conference (中国诗词大会) was shown on Feb 9. Peng Min, who has fallen at the final hurdle twice before, finally won the crown (王冠) for himself.

The season five final came down to Peng and 11-year-old Han Yaxuan-again he was facing a much younger rival. This time, though, there was to be no mistake and victory was finally his.
“I want to tell people who have a similar experience that, even though you go through all kinds of misfortune (不幸的) or difficulties, as long as you are brave enough to look up, there will always be a light in the sky to guide you out of the darkness,” Peng said in his speech. “Thousands of years later, all of our shadows will vanish, only the beauty of poems will last.”

【题目】 We usually see ancient plants or insects in amber(琥珀). But recently, a group of researchers found something unusual in amber — a feathered tail!
The tail includes bones, soft tissue and even feathers. It is 37 mm long, which is about the length of a matchstick. It looks like a plant at first sight. But researchers later identified(确定) it as part of the tail of a dinosaur that couldn’t fly almost 100 million years ago.
Xing Lida of Beijing’s China University of Geosciences discovered the amber in a market in Myanmar in 2015. “It is an amazing fossil(化石) and the finest details of feathers can be seen in 3-D.” he said.
The researchers note in their paper that this finding is particularly special because, although dinosaur feathers have been found in amber before, we don’t know which dinosaurs they came from. But this time researchers know more.
The tail is likely to belong to a tiny dinosaur called coelurosaur. Famous coelurosaurs include the T-rex(霸王龙) and Velociraptor(迅猛龙) — the latter of which would finally evolve into birds.
So with the “once in a lifetime” finding, can we hope for the possibility of a real Jurassic Park (侏罗纪公园)? In the movie series, scientists bring dinosaurs back to life by getting their DNA from blood found in amber.
But Canadian scientist Ryan Mckellar said that although soft tissue and blood of the tail were found in the amber, no genetic material was kept. “The Jurassic Park answer is still a ‘no’ — this is in the science fiction.” he said.
【1】What do you know about the amber?
a. It is about 100 million years old. b. It was discovered in Myanmar.
c. It was discovered this year. d. It is a valuable fossil.
A.abB.bcC.acD.bd
【2】What does the underlined phrase “evolve into” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A.come intoB.break intoC.grow intoD.get into
【3】The movie Jurassic Park is mentioned to ________ .
A.talk about the use of DNA in this areaB.call on people to watch it
C.compare different dinosaursD.talk about science fiction
