【题目】Ways to travel
Modern life is impossible without travelling. The fastest way to travel is by air. With a modern plane you can travel in one day to places which took a month or more one hundred years ago.
Travelling by train is slower than by air, but it has its advantages(优势). You can see the country you are travelling in. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.
Some people prefer to travel by sea when it is possible. There are large lines and river boats with which you can visit many other countries and different places. Travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish: where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or a hotel to spend the night. That is why travelling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they are travelling on business.

A. by car B. by train C. by plane D. by boat
【2】The underlined word “They” in the passage refers to ________.
A. modern trains in the country B. the travelers on modern trains

【题目】Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度)”，said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro/nanoelectromechanical systems (MNEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery, In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
【1】Which of the following is TRUE of Jae Kwon?
A. He developed a chemical battery.
B. He teaches chemistry at MU.
C. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.
D. He is working on a nuclear energy source.
【2】Liquid semiconductor is used to ________.
A. reduce the damage to lattice structure
B. test the power of nuclear batteries
C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries
D. get rid of the radioactive waste
【3】According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery ________.
A. uses a solid semiconductor
B. will soon replace the present ones
C. could be extremely thin
D. has passed the final test
【4】The text is most probably a ________.
A. book review
B. science news report
C. newspaper ad
D. science fiction story

【题目】The seats are comfortable. The walls are padded(覆软垫的) and white, and there are handles(把手) all over the place for the floating astronauts to hold.
But it’s the windows, the largest ever in space, that are the main advantage of the spaceship that Jeffrey Bezos showed off on Wednesday in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
In a year or more—Bezos said the timing hasn’t yet been decided-his space company Blue Origin plans to begin flying tourists past the edge of space, 62 miles high, where they’ll experience the the excitement of weightlessness and view the beauty of Earth.
“Everybody says that when you go to space, it changes you, ” said Bezos, the founder of Amzon. com. “All the astronauts come back with stories like that. It’s very fantastic to see the thin layer of the atmosphere surrounding the blue planet.”
Blue Origin is one of the several companies that are seeking to lower the cost of access to space. Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic, for example, also plans to fly tourists to space.
Bezos said while his “only focus is people in space, ” the flight-testing program will require a great deal of effort.
“We are not racing, ” he said. “This vehicle is going to carry humans. We’re going to make it as safe as we can.”
The goal of Blue Origin, the space company Bezos founded in 2000, is to one day help millions of people enjoy their life outside the Earth’s atmosphere. Space tourism is the first step on that journey, Bezos said.
The tourist flights would require some training, he said, and be quick, just 10 or 11minutes. As many as six passengers would board the spacecraft about 30 minutes before liftoff. It would then be taken into space by a rocket, which, after they separated, would fly back and land on the ground. The capsule(太空舱) would continue climbing, allowing the passengers to get out of their seats and float without weight in the capsule for about four minutes before the return flight down.
【1】What impressed those astronauts according to Bezos’ words in Paragraph 4?
A. The Earth’s amazing beauty.
B. The damage to the atmosphere.
C. The excitement of taking a spacecraft.
D. The experience of feeling weightlessness.
【2】How does Bezos look at the development of the spacecraft?
A. It is not a hard task for Blue Origin.
B. It will be finished in one or two years.
C. It must be done in a careful, unhurried way.
D. It cannot be completed by just one company.
【3】Why did Bezos start the company Blue Origin?
A. To make visiting space possible for everyone.
B. To help people know about space tourism.
C. To provide money for research on space.
D. To protect the Earth’s atmosphere.
【4】How long will tourists experience weightlessness in space?
A. For about an hour.
B. For about ten minutes.
C. For about half an hour.
D. For about four minutes.

【题目】The Marches were a happy family. Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.
The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.
The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. “Your husband is very ill,” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever（猩红热）when she was taking care of the sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.
Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.
Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches’. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died.
News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became ever more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.
And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.
【1】The members of the March family were Father March, Mrs. March and their ________.
A. five daughters B. four daughters
C. son and four daughters D. son and five daughters
【2】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. The March Girls B. The March Parents
C. The March Family D. The March Relatives
【3】It can be inferred from the passage that the March family had ________.
A. more girls than boys B. wealthy neighbors
C. both happiness and sadness D. a lot of rich relatives
