On October 1, 1958, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was officially established. Since its inception, NASA has been interested in exploring outer space. However, in the face of climate change, NASA’s most important task might be its exploration of the earth.
Although it’s not as historic as a moon landing, NASA has been collecting valuable information about the earth for decades-since at least 1968, when Apollo 8 astronaut William Anders took his “Earthrise” photo of the earth from the moon. Soon after, in 1972, NASA launched (发射) the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS). Later known as Landsat 1, it was the first earth-observing satellite to be launched in order to observe and study the earth.
Karen St. Germain, director of NASA’s Earth Science Division, said, “For nearly 50 years, Landsat satellites have provided continuous and timely data, which can help us understand the earth and plan for the future in a changing climate.”
50 years later, Landsat 9 was successfully launched from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base. Landsat 9 features two sensors (传感器) that will measure 11 wavelengths of light appearing on the surface of the earth. The first sensor, a camera known as the Operational Land Imager 2 (OLI-2), will take pictures of the earth. The second, the Thermal Infrared Sensor 2 (TIRS-2), will measure the heat from the earth’s surface.
“Landsat 9 will be our new eyes in the sky when it comes to observing our changing planet” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for science at NASA. “By working with the other Landsat satellites, we’ll have observations of any given place on our planet every two days. This is very important for tracking things like crop growth and helping decision-makers observe the earth and its natural resources.”
“Launches are always exciting, and today was no exception,” said Jeff Masek, NASA Landsat 9 project scientist. “But the best part for me, as a scientist, will be when the satellite starts delivering the data that people are waiting for.”
24. What does “inception” underlined in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Establishment. B. Publishing. C. Failure. D. Disappearance.
25. Who took the “Earthrise” photo from the moon
A. Jeff Masek. B. Karen St. Germain.
C. Thomas Zurbuchen. D. William Anders.
26. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. The launch of Landsat 9. B. The two sensors in Landsat 9.
C. The data collected by NASA. D. The pictures taken by Landsat 9.
27. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Landsat 9: New Eyes in the Sky
B. NASA: the Home of Astronauts
C. Space: the Focus of International Attention
D. Landsat 1:The First Earth-Observing Satellite

Mary Lyon was a leader in women’s education in the nineteenth century. It was a time when women’s education was not considered important in the United States. The States did require each town to provide a school for children, but there were not enough teachers. Most young women were not able to continue their education. If they did, they often were not taught much except French, how to sew (缝) clothing, and music.
Mary Lyon felt that women’s education was extremely important. She believed women were teachers both in the home and in the classroom. Mary opened a school for young women in Buckland. She suggested new ways of teaching, including holding discussion groups for students.
Then, Mary began to raise money for her dream school for the higher education of women. This school would own its own property. Its finances would be the responsibility of the directors. It would not depend on any person to continue. And, the students would share in cleaning and cooking to keep costs down.
In 1837, Mary Lyo n founded Mount Holyoke Female Seminary. In 1893, 44 years after her death, under a state law, Mount Holyoke Female Seminary became the first college to offer women the same kind of education as men. Mary’s efforts led to the spread of higher education for women in the United States. Her influence lasted as many students from her schools went out to teach others.
28. What’s the problem with women’s education in the 19th century
A. They weren’t supported by their family.
B. They had no right to have education.
C. They had little chance to be teachers.
D. They had few choices of subjects.
29. What can we know about Mary from paragraph 2
A. She suggested the traditional ways of teaching.
B. She preferred women to be educated at home.
C. She attached importance to women’s education.
D. She advised women to learn by themselves.
30. What was Mary’s dream school like
A. It would have very strict rules. B. It would be independent in finances.
C. It would be owned by the government. D. It would depend on some important people.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Mary Lyon: A Supporter of Higher Education B. Mary Lyon: A Leader in Women’s Education
C. Mary Lyon’s Great Influence on Her Students D. Mary Lyon’s Efforts to Pass a New Education Law
D
Bookstores are fascinating places. That’s because the books on the shelves can take you away to magical lands, help you learn a foreign language, or cook a delicious meal. But when your community is too small to house a real brick bookstore, sometimes you have to make a compromise. A mobile bookstore that brings books around the country was the result. That is the case for Rita Collins, 70, who dreamed of opening a used bookstore after retiring from teaching.
A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to abandon her idea that opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives, which would not be sustainable. Eureka, Montana, located just seven miles from the Canadian border, only has a population of 1,517. Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they were skeptical. But she persevered.
Collins was inspired by Dylans Mobile Bookstore, a traveling bookstore in Wales run by Jeff Towns. She contacted Jeff for advice but she was largely on her own when it came to building her bookstore. First, she had to find a vehicle large enough to stand in. Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit. Collins named her bookstore St Rita’s Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.
At first, she drove through Montana and then she made her first cross-country trip in 2016. After she retired in 2017, it became a full-time job all year round. Collins and her mobile bookstore have visited 30 states, stopping at festivals and events along the way. While the locations change, some things always stay the same. Collins loves meeting people and making connections. While she loves what she does, Collins doesn’t think she can keep doing it. In several years, she hopes to pass her traveling bookstore onto another bibliophile who shares the same interest and will keep it on the road.
32. Why did Collins abandon opening a bookstore
A. It would cost a lot of money. B. It was not promising.
C. It would be out of date. D. It was not approved.
33. Why were the shelves designed at a 15-degree angle
A. To beautify the mobile bookstore.
B. To make full use of space of the shelves.
C. To keep the bookstore’s balance.
D. To protect the books from falling down.
34. Which of the following can best describe Collins
A. Merciful and delightful. B. Intelligent and reasonable.
C. Determined and social. D. Generous and lovely.
35. What does the underlined word “bibliophile” in the last paragraph mean
A. A book lover. B. A publisher.
C. A famous writer. D. An editor.

Thin, average, and undisciplined, I was the underdog of the boys’ basketball tryouts (选拔赛) in seventh grade. Making the team was very important to me. Although I was extremely nervous, I truly thought I would make the team. But I went in overly optimistic, and quickly faced a cruel reality check.
When on the court, I huffed and puffed like an old man on his last legs; clearly, I was out of shape and having trouble keeping up. When it hit me that this was only the first day, and that there was a second to follow, I realized I would have to step it up in order to gain a spot on the team.
Unfortunately, day two went exactly like day one: I missed shots, passed badly like an out-of-breath fool. Hoping the coach was not watching all my bad moves, I had trouble keeping a positive attitude. Finally, Coach-who at five-foot-four usually seemed small, posted the lists of the Boys A and B Teams. Everybody quickly ran to catch a glimpse of the chosen few.
After scanning the list once, twice, three times, my name was nowhere. Although I had predicted the disaster that had now settled on me, with my head hanging. I slowly walked to the car. This experience definitely had not gone as I planned.
On the way home, I complained “How could that foolish boy is a better choice than me And…”
“Adam!” my mom cut me off. “Why don’t you realize maybe you need a little more practice You’d better go to basketball camps next summer.”
Although I did not want to believe her, I knew it was true. Failing to make the team was nobody’s fault but mine. Right then and there, in the middle of my anger, I realized I had to get my act together.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：

When I took part in the eighth-grade basketball tryouts,I was moderate,swift and strong.

【答案】13. B 14. C 15. C 16. A
【解析】
【原文】M: Louise, you’re studying medicine at university. Was it hard getting into your courses
W: Medicine’s a competitive area, so yes, it was hard. It’s more or less certain that everyone applying had good grades in science and did voluntary work in a hospital or clinic. My courses include training at hospitals abroad. So what made my application stand out was the fact that I’d also studied languages.
M: Now you’ve finished your first year. How did that go
W: Most things turned out as I expected. Our teachers gave us long lists of published materials on each topic. There have been a few surprises too. I didn’t expect the doctors to be so busy. They often didn’t have time to help students.
M: So, any special plans for your summer break
W: Well, I’d like to go on holiday, but I decided to look for summer work. Next term, I’m training at a hospital in Paris, so I’ll need to pay for travelling and accommodation.

【原文】Today, I’d like to tell you about a novel called Bend It Like Beckham. You may have watched the film which is a light-hearted comedy. The novel Bend It Like Beckham was written by Narinder Dhami after the release of the film in the previous year. It tells the story of Jess, the 18-year-old student, the daughter of Punjabi Sikhs living in London. Jess loves football and is a fan of David Beckham, but her parents forbid her to play because she is a girl and she can’t do that kind of thing. In spite of this, she secretly joins a local team, where she makes friends with Jules and falls in love with her coach, Joe. While Jess’s parents pay more attention to her sister’s wedding, Jess travels to Hamburg to take part in a tournament.
Back in the U. K., the team reaches the final of the league but the match is due to take place on the same day as the wedding. Eventually, Jess persuades her father to let her play and she scores the winning goal. After the match, both Jess and Jules are offered football scholarships at universities in the U. S. The film, starring Parminder Nagra as Jess, Keira Knightley as Jules and Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Joe, was a surprise success.

On October 1, 1958, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was officially established. Since its inception, NASA has been interested in exploring outer space. However, in the face of climate change, NASA’s most important task might be its exploration of the earth.
Although it’s not as historic as a moon landing, NASA has been collecting valuable information about the earth for decades-since at least 1968, when Apollo 8 astronaut William Anders took his “Earthrise” photo of the earth from the moon. Soon after, in 1972, NASA launched (发射) the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS). Later known as Landsat 1, it was the first earth-observing satellite to be launched in order to observe and study the earth.
Karen St. Germain, director of NASA’s Earth Science Division, said, “For nearly 50 years, Landsat satellites have provided continuous and timely data, which can help us understand the earth and plan for the future in a changing climate.”
50 years later, Landsat 9 was successfully launched from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base. Landsat 9 features two sensors (传感器) that will measure 11 wavelengths of light appearing on the surface of the earth. The first sensor, a camera known as the Operational Land Imager 2 (OLI-2), will take pictures of the earth. The second, the Thermal Infrared Sensor 2 (TIRS-2), will measure the heat from the earth’s surface.
“Landsat 9 will be our new eyes in the sky when it comes to observing our changing planet,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for science at NASA. “By working with the other Landsat satellites, we’ll have observations of any given place on our planet every two days. This is very important for tracking things like crop growth and helping decision-makers observe the earth and its natural resources.”
“Launches are always exciting, and today was no exception,” said Jeff Masek, NASA Landsat 9 project scientist. “But the best part for me, as a scientist, will be when the satellite starts delivering the data that people are waiting for.”
24. What does “inception” underlined in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Establishment. B. Publishing. C. Failure. D. Disappearance.
25 Who took the “Earthrise” photo from the moon
A. Jeff Masek. B. Karen St. Germain.
C. Thomas Zurbuchen. D. William Anders.
26. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. The launch of Landsat 9. B. The two sensors in Landsat 9.
C. The data collected by NASA. D. The pictures taken by Landsat 9.
27. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Landsat 9: New Eyes in the Sky
B. NASA: the Home of Astronauts
C. Space: the Focus of International Attention
D. Landsat 1:The First Earth-Observing Satellite
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】

(尽管它不像登月那样具有历史意义，但至少从1968年阿波罗8号宇航员威廉·安德斯从月球上拍摄地球的“地球升起”照片开始，美国宇航局已经收集了几十年关于地球的宝贵信息。)”可知，1968年阿波罗8号宇航员威廉·安德斯从月球上拍摄地球的“地球升起”照片。故选D项。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“Landsat 9 features two sensors (传感器) that will measure 11 wavelengths of light appearing on the surface of the earth. The first sensor, a camera known as the Operational Land Imager 2 (OLI-2), will take pictures of the earth. The second, the Thermal Infrared Sensor 2 (TIRS-2), will measure the heat from the earth’s surface. (陆地卫星9号有两个传感器，可以测量地球表面出现的11种波长的光。第一个传感器是被称为“操作陆地成像仪2号”(OLI-2)的照相机，它将拍摄地球的照片。第二个是热红外传感器2号(TIRS-2)，将测量地球表面的热量。)”可知，陆地卫星9号有两个传感器，接下来对这两个传感器的功能进行了简单的介绍可知，本段主要介绍的是陆地卫星9号有两个传感器。故选B项。

(然而，面对气候变化，NASA最重要的任务可能是对地球的探索。)”可知，NASA最重要的任务应该是对地球的探索，引出下文中对第一颗为了观察和研究地球而发射的地球观测卫星的介绍，根据第二段中的“Soon after, in 1972, NASA launched (发射) the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS). Later known as Landsat 1, it was the first earth-observing satellite to be launched in order to observe and study the earth. (不久之后，在1972年，美国宇航局发射了地球资源技术卫星(ERTS)。它后来被称为陆地卫星1号，是第一颗为了观察和研究地球而发射的地球观测卫星。)”可知，第一颗为了观察和研究地球而发射的地球观测卫星被称为陆地卫星1号，结合第四段中的“50 years later, Landsat 9 was successfully launched from California’s Vandenberg Space Force Base.(50年后，陆地卫星9号在加州范登堡太空基地成功发射。)”可知，50年后，陆地卫星9号发射成功，并介绍了陆地卫星9号的发射意义——天空中的新眼睛，综合以上信息可知，本文主要讲述的是天空中的新眼睛——陆地9号卫星的相关信息，所以本文的标题为“陆地卫星9号：天空中的新眼睛”与本文的内容吻合，且概括了本文的主旨大意。故选A项。

Mary Lyon was a leader in women’s education in the nineteenth century. It was a time when women’s education was not considered important in the United States. The States did require each town to provide a school for children, but there were not enough teachers. Most young women were not able to continue their education. If they did, they often were not taught much except French, how to sew (缝) clothing, and music.
Mary Lyon felt that women’s education was extremely important. She believed women were teachers both in the home and in the classroom. Mary opened a school for young women in Buckland. She suggested new ways of teaching, including holding discussion groups for students.
Then, Mary began to raise money for her dream school for the higher education of women. This school would own its own property. Its finances would be the responsibility of the directors. It would not depend on any person to continue. And, the students would share in cleaning and cooking to keep costs down.
In 1837, Mary Lyo n founded Mount Holyoke Female Seminary. In 1893, 44 years after her death, under a state law, Mount Holyoke Female Seminary became the first college to offer women the same kind of education as men. Mary’s efforts led to the spread of higher education for women in the United States. Her influence lasted as many students from her schools went out to teach others.

C. It would be owned by the government. D. It would depend on some important people.
31. What is the best title for the text

If they did, they often were not taught much except French, how to sew（缝）clothing, and music.(大多数年轻妇女无法继续她们的教育。即使她们这样做了，除了法语、如何缝制衣服和音乐之外，她们通常也不会学到太多东西)”可知，在 19世纪大多数年轻妇女无法继续她们的教育，除了法语、如何缝制衣服和音乐之外，她们通常也不会学到太多东西即她们可选择学习的科目很少。故选D。

Bookstores are fascinating places. That’s because the books on the shelves can take you away to magical lands, help you learn a foreign language, or cook a delicious meal. But when your community is too small to house a real brick bookstore, sometimes you have to make a compromise. A mobile bookstore that brings books around the country was the result. That is the case for Rita Collins, 70, who dreamed of opening a used bookstore after retiring from teaching.
A business planning class from the American Booksellers Association convinced Collins to abandon her idea that opening a bookstore in the small town where she lives, which would not be sustainable. Eureka, Montana, located just seven miles from the Canadian border, only has a population of 1,517. Collins asked her instructors about a traveling bookstore on wheels and they were skeptical. But she persevered.
Collins was inspired by Dylans Mobile Bookstore, a traveling bookstore in Wales run by Jeff Towns. She contacted Jeff for advice but she was largely on her own when it came to building her bookstore. First, she had to find a vehicle large enough to stand in. Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit. Collins named her bookstore St Rita’s Traveling Bookstore, which has been on the road since 2015.
At first, she drove through Montana and then she made her first cross-country trip in 2016. After she retired in 2017, it became a full-time job all year round. Collins and her mobile bookstore have visited 30 states, stopping at festivals and events along the way. While the locations change, some things always stay the same. Collins loves meeting people and making connections. While she loves what she does, Collins doesn’t think she can keep doing it. In several years, she hopes to pass her traveling bookstore onto another bibliophile who shares the same interest and will keep it on the road.
32. Why did Collins abandon opening a bookstore
A. It would cost a lot of money. B. It was not promising.
C. It would be out of date. D. It was not approved.
33. Why were the shelves designed at a 15-degree angle
A. To beautify the mobile bookstore.
B. To make full use of space of the shelves.
C. To keep the bookstore’s balance.
D. To protect the books from falling down.
34. Which of the following can best describe Collins
A. Merciful and delightful. B. Intelligent and reasonable.
C. Determined and social. D. Generous and lovely.
35. What does the underlined word “bibliophile” in the last paragraph mean
A. A book lover. B. A publisher.
C. A famous writer. D. An editor.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. A

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Then she had to have it refitted with shelves that would hold the books at a 15-degree angle so that they would stay in place while in transit.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Thin, average, and undisciplined, I was the underdog of the boys’ basketball tryouts (选拔赛) in seventh grade. Making the team was very important to me. Although I was extremely nervous, I truly thought I would make the team. But I went in overly optimistic, and quickly faced a cruel reality check.
When on the court, I huffed and puffed like an old man on his last legs; clearly, I was out of shape and having trouble keeping up. When it hit me that this was only the first day, and that there was a second to follow, I realized I would have to step it up in order to gain a spot on the team.
Unfortunately day two went exactly like day one: I missed shots, passed badly like an out-of-breath fool. Hoping the coach was not watching all my bad moves, I had trouble keeping a positive attitude. Finally, Coach-who at five-foot-four usually seemed small, posted the lists of the Boys A and B Teams. Everybody quickly ran to catch a glimpse of the chosen few.
After scanning the list once, twice, three times, my name was nowhere. Although I had predicted the disaster that had now settled on me, with my head hanging. I slowly walked to the car. This experience definitely had not gone as I planned.
On the way home, I complained “How could that foolish boy is a better choice than me And…”
“Adam!” my mom cut me off. “Why don’t you realize maybe you need a little more practice You’d better go to basketball camps next summer.”
Although I did not want to believe her, I knew it was true. Failing to make the team was nobody’s fault but mine. Right then and there, in the middle of my anger, I realized I had to get my act together.

【答案】 Then I threw myself into as many basketball opportunities as I could find. Every day, I insisted on running 10 kilometers and jumping ropes 1000 times after school to increase my energy level and physical strength. Additionally, I practiced passing, dribbling and shooting with my friends every day to improve my basketball skills. When the summer holidays came, I signed up for a basketball camp, where I got a lot of professional basketball knowledge and training from the coaches. Gradually, I found myself making great progress.
When I took part in the eighth-grade basketball tryouts, I was moderate, swift and strong. When on the court, I kept running without any trouble, dribbling freely and passing the basketball accurately. As long as I got the chance, I would try to shoot. One, two, three… I scored ten goals at last. There was no doubt that I succeeded in becoming a member of the basketball team. It was my determination and efforts that helped me achieve my dream.
