(难度:中 建议阅读时间:9 分钟)
2028 will mark an intensive period of exploration in the global aerospace sector—China plans to upgrade
its Tiangong Space Station and launch new experimental modules into space, SpaceX’s manned lunar lander
enters the final preparation stage, and on the 22nd, Huang Jingyu officially announced that he has become one
of China’s first commercial space tourists. He plans to take the manned spaceship "ChuanYueZhe" of a private
aerospace company to the suborbit in 2028, thus becoming the first star in China to publicly participate in space
travel, making "space exploration" a hot topic among the public. As the public’s eyes turn to deep space along
with the camera lens, an important question appears: how can every step humanity takes toward the universe
coexist with the responsibility of protecting our home planet?
Humanity’s desire for space exploration has always been accompanied by considerations of
natural limits. A study published in《Nature Astronomy》2025 by the team led by Duan Huabo from
Huazhong University of Science and Technology points out that carbon dioxide, black carbon, and
harmful chlorides produced by rocket launches directly enter the stratosphere. These substances stay for a long
time and spread slowly, and they are especially harmful to the polar ozone layer. It is estimated that global
stratosphere launch-related emissions in 2019 reached 5.8 Gg of carbon dioxide and 0.28 Gg of black carbon.
With the rapid development of space missions by various countries in 2028, this increasing effect may go
beyond the safety limit of the upper atmospheric environment. More importantly, the materials and energy
needed for the whole life cycle of launch equipment, power systems, and other parts required for lunar base
construction all depend on Earth’s industrial system. Without environmental calculation, it will become a hidden
way to transfer resource pressure.
01 场景语料导入
However, exploration and protection have never been opposite forces; progress in aerospace technology
has instead provided new ways for Earth’s ecological protection. NASA’s regenerative life support system
developed for Mars exploration achieves self-sufficiency in food production, water purification, and waste
conversion through a closed-loop design. This technology has been successfully used in Earth’s polar regions
—in Antarctic research stations, the improved renewable energy plan based on this system has greatly reduced
the need for fuel transportation and lessened human influence on the polar ecology. Similarly, the wind-solar
hybrid power generation technology developed to deal with Mars dust storms, because of its ability to stand
extreme environments, has been changed into durable wind turbines for Earth’s cold regions, becoming an
important new achievement in the field of clean energy.
In the 2028 aerospace boom, "sustainable exploration" has become a common view in China’s aerospace
field. China’s planned Tiangong Space Station upgrade will focus on developing "autonomous technologies"
needed for future lunar landings and deep space exploration. Through the improvement of hardware and
software, it will reduce the dependence of space missions on Earth’s resources and lay the foundation for lunar
facility construction. While pushing forward its manned lunar mission, SpaceX is also improving rocket
recovery technology, trying to reduce launch costs and environmental influence by reusing core parts. Huang
Jingyu, who officially became one of China’s first commercial space tourists on the 22nd, said in a VCR when
talking about his upcoming journey that he is very honored to be a space tourist and will take a spaceship
independently developed by China to personally rush to the star sea in 2028. The technical team of
"ChuanYueZhe No.1 (CYZ1)" also revealed earlier that the project has currently booked more than three
manned spaceships, with more than 20 space tourists confirmed to participate, and the first manned flight
mission is expected to be completed in 2028. Although the progress of some space projects has been delayed
because of technical difficulties, China’s pursuit of sustainable space exploration has never stopped. As Huang
Jingyu said in his aerospace documentary: "We look up at the stars not to escape Earth, but to protect our only
home from a broader view." From the careful control of stratospheric emissions to the cross-field use of
aerospace technology, China is using scientific wisdom to build a bridge between space exploration and
Earth’s protection.(694 words)

【答案】1. affecting 2. to develop 3. application 4. was designed 5. recycling 6. for 7.
resources 8. by
【解析】
1.affecting 考查非谓语动词(现在分词)。空格处作后置定语修饰emissions,emissions 与affect 之间
是主动关系,表“产生影响大气层的有害排放物”,故填affecting(考点:现在分词作后置定语)。
2.to develop 考查非谓语动词(不定式)。此处为不定式作目的状语,表“工程师不懈努力的目的是
研发环保技术”,故填to develop(考点:不定式作目的状语)。
3..application 考查词性转换(动词→名词)。空格前有定冠词the 修饰,需填名词形式,apply(动词,
应用)的名词为application,表“这些技术的应用”,故填application。
4.was designed 考查谓语动词(一般过去时被动语态)。此处为定语从句的谓语,system 与design 之
间是被动关系,且“设计”是过去发生的动作,故填was designed(考点:被动语态谓语)。
5..........recycling 考查非谓语动词(动名词)。介词by 后接动名词作宾语,表“通过回收水”,故填
recycling(考点:动名词作宾语)。
6.for 考查介词。此处为并列句连词相关介词,for 表“因为、由于”,连接前后因果关系(我们应关
注这些技术,因为它们能搭建桥梁),符合并列句逻辑,故填for。
7.....resources 考查名词复数。resource(资源)为可数名词,此处表“地球的资源”,需用复数形式
resources,故填resources。
8.by 考查介词。by means of 为固定搭配,表“通过……方式”,符合“通过重复使用核心部件减少
浪费”的语境,故填by。
9.continues 考查谓语,根据主句谓语动词is 的时态是一般现在时,可以推断As 引导的从句的谓语也是
一般现在时。根据humanity 是抽象名词,故谓语用第三人称单数。故填continues。
10. a 考查冠词。空后为名词单数,空前but 的并列结构a barrier 是冠词加名词单数,因此此处需要用
不定冠词。又因为是辅音发音开头,故用不定冠词a。故填a。

Dear Editors,
I’m excited to share my views on space exploration and Earth protection, inspired by the 2028 global
aerospace events.
Space exploration is a pursuit of human progress, opening doors to scientific discoveries. However, it’s
not separate from Earth protection—instead, they help each other. Technologies like NASA’s regenerative life
support system are good for both space missions and Earth’s ecology. As Huang Jingyu said, protecting Earth
is the foundation of exploring the stars.
As teenagers, we can learn about space science and call on others to support sustainable exploration. We
can also protect the environment in daily life, such as saving energy. Every small effort helps to balance space
exploration and the protection of our home.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

近3 年考查1 次,2024 年北京卷,C 篇,文章主要讨论了哲学家对于宇宙的认知
和信息时代下的作者对于宇宙争论的看法。
1.(2024 年北京卷,C 篇)
The notion that we live in someone else’s video game is irresistible to many. Searching the term
“ simulation hypothesis” (模拟假说) returns numerous results that debate whether the universe is a
computer simulation — a concept that some scientists actually take seriously. Unfortunately, this is not a
scientific question. We will probably never know whether it’s true. We can, instead, use this idea to advance scientific
knowledge.
The 18th-century philosopher Kant argued that the universe ultimately consists of things-in-themselves that
are unknowable. While he held the notion that objective reality exists, he said our mind plays a necessary role in
structuring and shaping our perceptions. Modern sciences have revealed that our perceptual experience of the
world is the result of many stages of processing by sensory systems and cognitive (认知的) functions in the
brain. No one knows exactly what happens within this black box. If empirical (实证的) experience fails to
reveal reality, reasoning won’t reveal reality either since it relies on concepts and words that are contingent
on our social, cultural and psychological histories. Again, a black box.
So, if we accept that the universe is unknowable, we also accept we will never know if we live in a computer
simulation. And then, we can shift our inquiry from “Is the universe a computer simulation? ” to “Can we model the
universe as a computer simulation? ” Modelling reality is what we do. To facilitate our comprehension of the
world, we build models based on conceptual metaphors (隐喻) that are familiar to us. In Newton’s era, we
imagined the universe as a clock. In Einstein’s, we uncovered the standard model of particle (粒子)
physics.
Now that we are in the information age, we have new concepts such as the computer, information processing,
virtual reality, and simulation. Unsurprisingly, these new concepts inspire us to build new models of the universe.
04 高考真题导航
Models are not the reality, however. There is no point in arguing if the universe is a clock, a set of particles or an
output of computation. All these models are tools to deal with the unknown and to make discoveries. And the more
tools we have, the more effective and insightful we can become.
It can be imagined that comparable to the process of building previous scientific models, developing the
“computer simulation” metaphor-based model will also be a hugely rewarding exercise.
28.What does the author intend to do by challenging a hypothesis?
A.Make an assumption. B.Illustrate an argument.
C.Give a suggestion.
D.Justify a comparison.
29.What does the phrase “contingent on” underlined in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Accepted by. B.Determined by.
C.Awakened by. D.Discovered by.
30.As for Kant’s argument, the author is _________.
A.appreciative B.doubtful
C.unconcerned
D.disapproving
31.It is implied in this passage that we should _________.
A.compare the current models with the previous ones
B.continue exploring the classical models in history
C.stop arguing whether the universe is a simulation
D.turn simulations of the universe into realities up.
【答案】28.C 29.B 30.A 31.C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了哲学家对于宇宙的认知和信息时代下的作者对于宇宙争论的
看法。
28 .推理判断题。根据第一段“ Searching the term “ simulation hypothesis” ( 模拟假说) returns
numerous results that debate whether the universe is a computer simulation —— a concept that some
scientists actually take seriously. Unfortunately, this is not a scientific question. We will probably never
know whether it’s true. We can, instead, use this idea to advance scientific knowledge.(搜索“模拟假
说”这一术语会得到许多关于宇宙是否是计算机模拟的争论结果——一些科学家实际上认真对待这个概念。
不幸的是,这不是一个科学问题。我们可能永远都不知道这是不是真的。相反,我们可以利用这个想法来
推进科学知识)”可知,作者对于模拟假说提出质疑,是为了提出自己的建议,建议使用这一想法来推进科
学知识。故选C 项。
29.词句猜测题。根据第二段“If empirical (实证的) experience fails to reveal reality, reasoning won’t
reveal reality either since it relies on concepts and words that are contingent on our social, cultural and
psychological histories. Again, a black box.(如果经验不能揭示现实,推理也不会揭示现实,因为它依赖于
contingent on 我们的社会、文化和心理历史的概念和词语)”可知,句中that 引导限制性定语从句,指代先
行词concepts and words,且结合常识,概念和词语取决于我们的社会、文化和心理历史,推测划线短语表
示“取决于”,与determined by 意义相近。故选B 项。
30.推理判断题。根据第二段“The 18th-century philosopher Kant argued that the universe ultimately
consists of things-in-themselves that are unknowable. While he held the notion that objective reality exists,
he said our mind plays a necessary role in structuring and shaping our perceptions. (18 世纪的哲学家康德
认为,宇宙最终由不可知的事物本身组成。虽然他认为客观现实是存在的,但他说,我们的大脑在构建和
塑造我们的感知方面发挥着必要的作用)”以及第三段“So, if we accept that the universe is unknowable,
we also accept we will never know if we live in a computer simulation.(因此,如果我们接受宇宙是不可
知的,我们也接受我们永远不会知道我们是否生活在计算机模拟中)”可知,作者引用康德的观点,并在客
观陈述后利用该观点来构建自己的论述,由此可知,作者对康德的论点持欣赏的态度。故选A 项。
31.推理判断题。根据第四段“There is no point in arguing if the universe is a clock, a set of particles
or an output of computation. All these models are tools to deal with the unknown and to make
discoveries. And the more tools we have, the more effective and insightful we can become. (争论宇宙是
否是一个时钟、一组粒子还是计算输出的产物是没有意义的。所有这些模型都是处理未知事物和发现事物
的工具。我们拥有的工具越多,我们就能变得越有效、越有洞察力)”以及第五段“It can be imagined that

We all know what happens to most stars in the final stages of their lives: they explode violently in an event
called a supernova (超新星), the largest explosion taking place in space to NASA’s eye, when they run out of “fuel”
and collapse (瓦解). This led to some of the most powerful explosions in the universe. So when astronomers used
Hubble Space Telescope to observe a “dying” star, they thought they would see the same predictable event. What
they saw was a supernova, but the star that created it looked different from the others.
When a massive star is nearing the end of its life, it is almost always covered in a layer (层) of hydrogen. The
researchers point out that this layer of hydrogen often hides the extremely high temperature inside of the star, which,
in our eyes, is blue. When a star becomes a supernova, hydrogen and everything else that makes up the star are
released in an explosion. However, the star that created the supernova event known as 2019yvr didn’t appear to have
any hydrogen in the years leading up to its explosion.
“We haven’t seen anything like this before,” Charles Kilpatrick, a member of the Young Supernova Experiment,
said. “If a star explodes without hydrogen, it should be extremely blue—very, very hot. If a star’s outer layer were
free of hydrogen, it would be almost impossible for it to be so hot. It extends the physical possibility.”
“Astronomers suspect that in the years leading up to the supernova, stars experienced violent eruptions or death
pains,” Kilpatrick explained. “The discovery of this star provides some of the most direct evidence yet that the star

experienced a disastrous eruption that caused it to lose mass before the explosion. If the star were to make the
eruption, it would probably have discharged its hydrogen decades before the explosion.” Or, in another new theory,
the star may have a companion star that removes the hydrogen layer of its outer layer before it explodes.
12. What does the author say about a supernova?
A It marks the death of a star.
B. It is a gas explosion in nature.
C. It serves as a source of energy.
D. It is the world’s largest explosion.
13. How is paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A. By giving examples.
B. By analyzing causes.
C. By making comparisons.
D. By making classifications.
14. Why is the star lacking in hydrogen before 2019yvr according to Kilpatrick?
A. It has a very small mass.
B. It may get hydrogen released in advance.
C. Its outer layer is unusually hot.
D. Its companion star absorbs all the hydrogen.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. How does a supernova come into being?
B. The secret of stars’ being put to death.
C. Why do stars lose mass before they explode?
D. An exploding star breaking supernova rules.

For the first time ever, a powerful laser(激光)beam from Earth has reportedly hit a target deep in space. It
could be the key to lightning-fast space communication in the future.
Imagine trying to aim at something a distance of a strand(股)of hair from a distance of 10km. That's
roughly equivalent to what Chinese researchers have achieved, using a laser in space to target a distant satellite
orbiting the Moon.
Aerospace engineers of the Beijing-based Academy of Sciences have struck a satellite with an infrared(红
外)laser in broad daylight and across a distance of 130,000 km. The powerful laser beam hit a reflector on
Tiandu-1, a Chinese lunar navigation and communications test satellite, which was launched in March 2024. The
signal was returned to Earth in less than a second, captured by a telescope in Yunnan in South-Western China.
It is the first time ever that engineers have managed to accurately locate and measure a satellite so far away and
to do so in daylight, when sunlight usually interferes with measurements. In similar earlier efforts, researchers had
been able to collect data for only short periods of time. But by demonstrating that the technology also works in
sunlight, the researchers have now shown that the method could enable much more frequent and accurate
measurements in space.
The method could also be used to revolutionize communications in space. Currently we use radio waves to send
messages to places such as Mars, but lasers could send greatly increased quantities of data in the same time.
The technology could pave the way for lightning-fast contact with future bases on the Moon—and perhaps one
day on Mars. Stable laser links in space can reportedly send data to and from Earth up to 100 times faster than can
radio waves, perhaps an important boost to communication with future astronauts on the Moon and Mars.
32. What did the Chinese researchers successfully make the laser beam reach?
A. A lunar base under construction.
B. A Mars exploration spacecraft.
C. A reflective device on a test satellite.
D. A ground telescope in Yunnan.
33. What makes the Chinese engineers’ achievement particularly remarkable?
A. Locating a so-distant satellite precisely in daylight.
B. Launching a Moon-orbiting satellite 130,000 km away.
C. Getting the signal returned to Earth in a second.
D. Using an infrared laser for the first time successfully.
34. What can be inferred about radio waves in space communication?
A. They are unable to reach Mars from Earth.
B. They will soon be replaced by laser technology.
C. They have lower data transmission capacity than lasers.
D. They are more easily interfered with by sunlight than lasers.
35. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text?
A. A Historic Laser Strike: Targeting the Moon
B. Tiandu-1 Satellite: Bridging Earth and the Moon
C. Radio Waves: The Future of Space Communication
D. China‘’s Laser: A Leap for Deep-Space Communication
