US Army veteran (退伍老兵)Mazyck remembers when doctors told her she would never walk again.She'd
been paralyzed from the waist down after a serious accident while parachuting in 2003.The doctors never said
anything about floating,though.In 2021,she got to do just that.
Mazyck was one of 12 participants in a Zero G flight,organized by the group AstroAccess. This type of
flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all the way to space.Flying over
the Pacific Ocean off Southern California,the modified 747 jet airplane made 15 steep dives and
climbs,allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness.
The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful.“The flight was something that I would have never in my wildest
dreams thought I would've experienced,"she says,"especially the floating, the weightlessness."
Traditionally,strict physical requirements have prevented disabled people from becoming
astronauts.AstroAccess is working to make space accessible to all.“Space removes the barriers between
people;now is the time to remove the barriers to space itself,"says Mazyck,"It is sending a message to
people who have historically been excluded from STEM that not only is there room for you in space,there is a
need for you.”
During the flight,she says,the participants did experiments and made observations.They took note of
things that people without certain disabilities might not realize are issues.For example,people who couldn't
grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves still while weightless.The group also experimented
with signaling lights for the deaf and with ways of using braille(盲文)for the blind.
These types of issues are easy enough to address.Now is the time to make space accessible 一 before space
学科网（北京）股份有限公司tourism or space settlements become commonplace."I am so proud and elated about what's happening
here,"Mazyck adds."We are paving the way for the future."
24.What do we know about AstroAccess?
A.It redesigns jet airplanes. B.It offers weightlessness experience.
C.It provides physical treatment. D.It trains the disabled to be astronauts.
25.What is required in the flights for the participants?
A.Astronaut experience, B.Steep dives and climbs.
C.Weightlessness periods. D.Trials and observations.
26.Which of the following words can best describe Mazyck?
A.Generous and determined. B.Caring and persistent.
C.Courageous and optimistic. D.Ambitious and innovative.
27.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Paving the Way for the Future B.Disabled Americans Make It to Space
C.Making Space a Place for Everyone D.US Veterans Experience Zero G Flight
C
Three years ago,Juan Carlos Sesma had a realization.Global warming and climate change seemed to be a
mounting problem,with scientific records indicating rising temperatures and sea levels across the world.At the
same time forest fires,logging,and aggressive human expansion meant the supply of trees which helped to
regulate and remove greenhouse gases from our atmosphere was dwindling .
He decided the best way to tackle a problem this large was to combine two of the most powerful forces
emerging in technology:big data and robotics.Sesma founded a new company called CO2 Revolution,whose
plan was to use drones(无人机)to better understand where new trees should be planted and to automate the
process of planting so that much larger areas of forest could be repopulated.The company designed a special
smart seed that helped to deliver just the right amount of protection and nutrition to the young saplings.The
overall goal was to considerably lower the time and cost of large scale re-forestation.
CO2 Revolution isn't alone.In the UK,a startup called Biocarbon Engineering ran a trial carlier this year
where it used drones to help replant Mangrove trees in Myanmar.It has also deployed( 部 署 )its technology in
Australia,South Africa,and Morocco.“In a lot of places, people will either have a map taken by aeroplane,or
just use Google Earth satellite imagery.
They'll draw things out freehand and manually plant,either by hand or tractor,"said CEO Susan Graham in a
recent interview.
The challenge for all these startups is to find ways to create a profitable,or at least
sustainable,business model.For Sesma and the team at CO2 Revolution,recent regulatory action has
highlighted one potential pathway.“We offer a solution that allows clients to carry out massive
plantings,incrcasing forest mass and thus compensating for their carbon footprint.” Amid growing calls for
carbon sequestration,this kind of effort might prove not just noble,but financially sensible for large corporations.
28.What drove Sesma to set up CO2 Revolution?
A.Big data and robotics. B.Forest fires and human expansion.
C.Global Warming and climate change. D.Powerful forces emerging in technology.
29.What does the underlined word"dwindling "probably mean in paragraph 1?
学科网（北京）股份有限公司A.Declining B.Changing C.Recovering. D.Expanding
30.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Drones are populated in larger areas of forests.
B.CO2 Revolution calls for a profitable drone model.
C.Biocarbon Engineering sets up worldwide technology centers.
D.Smart seeds are designed to improve the accuracy of planting.
31.What does the author think of startups like CO2 Revolution?
A.Conventional. B.Valueless. C.Beneficial D.Impractical
D
Babies as young as 4 months old who are born into a bilingual(双语的)environment show distinct and
potentially advantagcous brain pattcrms for speech processing.Our early-life experiences can have lifelong
effects on our behavior.The brain is most sensitive to its environment during the first year of life,which is
thought to be a critical period for language development.
Previous studies have looked into the brain mechanisms that underlie (构成 … … 的基础) speech
processing in babies who hear just one language.To better understand this in bilingual-exposed
infants,Borja Blanco at the University of Cambridge and his collcagues compared how 31 babies who only
heard Spanish and 26 babies who heard Spanish and Basque, all aged 4 months,responded to Spanish
recordings of The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery.
The team used an imaging technique called functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure
changes in brain activities.In the Spanish-only babies,the recordings caused activation in areas which play
a role in speech processing.In the bilingual-exposed babies,the recordings similarly evoked these
responses,but they were larger and wider.These infants also had activation in equivalent areas of their
brains’right hemispheres ( 脑 半 球 ) .When the recordings were then played backwards as a control arm of
the experiment,the infants exposed to just Spanish had larger responses to the backwards speech,while those to
Spanish and Basque had similar brain patterns as before.This may be because the bilingual infants take
longer to register their primary language,in this case Spanish,as hearing both this and Basque reduces
their overall exposure to either language.
If this is the casc,it could help them be sensitive to linguistic differences and enable them to learn to
distinguish between languages at a younger age.The researchers note that a bilingual environment stimulates
changes in the brain mechanisms underlying speech processing in young infants,adding weight to the idea that
the neural basis of learning two or more languages is established very early in life.
32.Why was the study conducted?
A.To reveal the impact of bilingual exposure. B.To confirm the pattern of brain mechanism.
C.To conclude the factors for speech processing D.To explore the potentials for language
development.
33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Theory basis. B.Study methods.
C.Research findings D.Technical assistance,
34.What can we learn from the research?
A.Bilingual-exposed babies are more sensitive.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司B.Bilingual-exposed babies are more linguistically critical.
C.Bilingual-exposure reduces babies 'linguistic competence.
D.Bilingual-exposure reduces babies' overall language exposure.
35.Which of the following statements might the researchers agree with?
A.Immigrants speak better languages.
B.Mixed race families own more linguistic potential.
C.Exchange students show greater learning capability.
D.Overseas workers have higher language proficiency.

Very often,we take a picture on our smartphones and then immediately check the screen to see how it came
out. 3 6 We've gathered our best tips to ensure you know how to look good in pictures.
Know your angles.
Knowing your angles is the first step to taking a great picture.Maybe you like one side of your face better
than the other.Maybe you're completely symmetrical and can take a photo from the front. 37 So snap some
selfies and start to get acquainted with your best angle.
Doing so will have you feeling confident and looking your best in your next shot.
Make sure the light is behind the camera.
Great lighting makes a great photo.The key is to make sure you're in front of the light, and that the
light is behind the camera.So,if you're outside,make sure the sun is behind the camera. 38
Take multiples.
39 .Take different photos of the same shot,so you have options when choosing which photo to
keep.You'll be surprised how often your facial expression changes in the same shot.
Invest in a good quality camera.
While smartphone cameras keep getting better and better,nothing beats the clear and crisp image quality of
a digital single-lens reflex (DSLR)camera.The bad news?A good DSLR can cost anywhere from $400 on
up. 40
With these photo tips in mind,next time you snap a photo,you'll look at it with a smile.
A.You can never take too many photos,right?
B.Whatever the case is,you have to take the time to study your face.
C.You'll also show more of your eyelashes and brows from this angle.
D.And if you're indoors,make sure windows and lighting fixtures are behind the camera.
E.Most of the photos you see from celebrities and online influencers come from a DSLR.
F.But it might be worth the investment if you really want to achieve that professional look.
G.Bu if you tend to find yourself deleting every picture you take,it's time to up your photo game.

the 41 ,has gone to speak with someone from one of the nearby tourist souvenir huts.After ages,he
学科网（北京）股份有限公司walks towards me, 42 some sausages,hot water,a new cowboy hat,and a big grin on his face.“We're giving a
man a 43 ,”he tells me.
The idea seems 44 but somehow safe,given that there are two of us and Lucas is a _45 to the
country.How exciting to create an opportunity to meet people that you wouldn't have met 46 .

watch in the side mirror as Michael 47 towards the car.In his right boot is a big knife,pushed far enough in
that only the handle and the base of the blade poke out.A knife!

now eagerly 49 with him in a language I barely understand,I'm trying to let myself 50 .Then Lucas
loosely translates the conversation they're having as Michael proudly 51 his knife,explaining that he uses it
for everything:opening bottles, picking his teeth,castrating his cows.
Gradually,my 52 towards our new stranger grows as he persistently tries to communicate with me,
53 the mood of the car.Twenty minutes down winding mountain roads and we reach Michael's house,where we
are invited to have a meal with his 54 .Later that day,we leave the house without taking any contact details from
Michael.There is an unspoken understanding that this 5 5 friendship is enough.

For most of us,popcorn is synonymous( 同 义 的 )with movie theaters.We go to the movies, buy a
popcorn,and enjoy the show 56 even thinking twice about it.But,why?Why do we always eat popcorn at the
movies?
One reason for popcorn's increasing 57 (popular)was its mobility:in 1885, the first steam-powered
popcorn maker hit the streets,invented by Charles Cretor.The mobile nature of the machine made 58 the
perfect production machine to serve customers 59 (attend)outdoor sporting events,or circuses and 60
(fair).Not only was popcorn mobile,but it could be mass-produced without a kitchen,an advantage 61 another
学科网（北京）股份有限公司crunchy snack —the potato chip—lacked.Another reason for its dominance over other snacks was its
appealing smell when 62 (heat).
But it wasn't super fancy to movie theatres at first as they didn't allow such a loud and messy food
into their performances. 63 relationship between popcorn and the movies was really set in stone during World
War II.Things like chocolate and sugar were limited during the war while salt and popcorn kernels were
never limited.So the country's favorite go-to-movie snack was even 64 (available)and popular.Ever
since,popcorn and movies 65 (continue)to be as iconic as any duo(二重奏)out there.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
I first met Bo when I voluntecred to be a docent(讲解员)at the zoo.It was a summer program our school
participated in,where biology students earned extra credit by teaching little kids about some of the animals.I
needed to increase my biology grade,so I asked my friend Sue Wang to be my partner.“Melanie,I'll do this
with you,"she said,"but I'll do the talking.No way will I handle the animals!”That was OK with me.
During the training course,our instructor,Mr.Lindsey came to Sue and me and said,“OK, girls,your
animal is a boa(蟒蛇).”I felt myself go cold.“I have to handle a boa?”
That night,I had a nightmare.I was carrying the snake around a classroom,showing the kids,when all
of a sudden it started constricting(收紧).It squeezed and squeezed,and I couldn't breathe!I woke up in a sweat,my
body rigid.
Next day I told my instructor.“Sure you can do it,”he said.He slid the door of the snake carrier open.“Now
put your elbow in—slowly —and wait for him to crawl on your arm.Good, that's the way.”He wasn't wet or
slimy.He was dry and soft!But it was scary!Mr.Lindsey stood beside me.“Relax,Melanie.You need to show
him you aren't afraid.He needs to trust you, and you need to trust him.”Yeah,right.He didn't do
anything.Awesome!I named him Bo. After a few school visits,I began to really like my boa and was pretty
much at ease with him.
Then came the day I will never forget.As usual,I opened the carrier and took him out. After Sue
talked about how boas live mostly in rain forests in Central and South America,I walked around the
classroom,saying,"“Don't be afraid.See,he is nice.You can touch him gently, here,on his back.His name is Bo.”
Most of the kids actually did touch him,and everything went fine until one boy,for some unknown
reasons,tapped Bo on the head.I froze.
