26、   The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is mostly a desert. However, this has not stopped the country from creating great building projects. On September 26, UAE officials announced another ambitious project — Mars Science City. Expansive deserts and miles of coastline provide plenty of options for safe rocket launches (发射). And its position on the Earth makes it especially appealing as the spin of the Earth provides an extra push, meaning less fuel is needed to get payloads into orbit. All these seem to make it possible.

The Mars City Project, designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, or BIG, will provide a realistic model to simulate (模仿) living on the surface of Mars, the red planet. It is part of the UAE’s Mars 2117 Project to lead the global race to land humans on Mars and be the first to build a settlement there. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Prime Minister and ruler of Dubai, says, “The UAE seeks international support to develop technologies that benefit humans, and lay the foundation of a better future for more generations to come.”

Built outside Dubai, the 1.9 million square feet city is expected to cost $135 million. It will consist of several dome-shaped laboratories, similar to the ones imagined for the first Mars settlers. Scientists from around the word will be invited to conduct research to come up with methods to create food, water and energy, using techniques which can be copied onto the red planet. The living spaces, where the researchers can live for up to a year, will simulate the planet’s conditions as much as possible.

The research city will also include a museum featuring famous space achievements to help educate and inspire children to undertake space exploration and discovery. To discover whether the construction method works on Mars, the museum’s walls will be 3D printed using the sand from the nearby desert. Now, if they would only add some living quarters for the general public to experience life on Mars without leaving Earth, life would be perfect.

【1】What can we conclude about the United Arab Emirates?

A.It is short of fine weather.

B.It is a nice place for launching.

C.It can provide adequate fuel supply.

D.It has the greatest architects in the world.

【2】What will scientists do in the laboratories?

A.Educate visitors on trips to Mars.

B.Develop the Mars settlers’ imagination.

C.Find ways to produce food, water and energy on Mars.

D.Create a climate-controlled environment for future use.

【3】Why will the museum’s walls be 3D printed?

A.To show famous space techniques.

B.To make full use of the nearby desert.

C.To inspire children to love exploration.

D.To test building skills used by Mars settlers.

【4】What’s the best title for the text?

A.UAE to Build Mars Science City

B.UAE’s Great Exploration of Mars

C.UAE to Build First Mars Settlement

D.UAE’s Scientistific Contribution to Humans

27、

China has recently been faced with serious issues of product safety. In Panama，it is said that medicine made with a poisonous chemical sickened some people.A Chinese company had identified it as diethylamide glycol(乙二醇)，a lowcost substitute commonly used in automobile antifreeze(防冻剂)．

Some countries have banned Chinese­made toothpaste containing diethylamide glycol. China has now told companies to discontinue its use，even though it says the toothpaste is safe. Another industrial chemical，melamine，was found in wheat flour used to make pet food in North America.

Thousands of dogs and cats became sick.

The United States has restricted some imports of Chinese seafood because they contained banned substance. And questions have been raised about other products，including children's toys covered with lead paint.

Chinese officials promised to provide the European Union，the biggest trading partner，with detailed reports on enforcement efforts against unsafe goods.

Meglena Kuneva，commissioner(理事) for consumer protection of the European Union said China should have kept its promise.

China recently closed three companies linked to the Panama and the pet food scare. And it dismissed the former head of its food and drug administration. He was found guilty of corruption(腐败)for approving unsafe drugs. This week，a conference of the State Council approved a proposed special measure on the supervision of food safety. The Xinhua News Agency said it calls for stronger controls over producers，greater responsibilities for government and more serious punishment for illegal activities.

But Chinese officials have accused some foreign media of overstating problems with goods made in China. They say food imports from the United States also fail inspection sometimes. Next week，American and Chinese food safety officials are planning to hold 5 days of meetings in Beijing to discuss cooperation.

【1】How many cases with safety problems are mentioned in the passage?

A．Six. B．Five.  C．Four. D．Three.

【2】How was Panama case dealt with afterwards?

A．Three companies linked to it were closed down.

B．The former head of food and drug administration was removed from his position.

C．More serious punishment was conducted for leaders linked to it.

D．Both A and B.

【3】It can be implied but not clearly stated that________.

A．Chinese­made toothpaste is safe

B．the safety of “Made in China” is doubted

C．there are safety problems with one more Chinese products

D．stronger control over Chinese products is in need

【4】The passage is mainly about________.

A．China is facing product safety problems

B．more controls are taken of Chinese goods

C．overstated problems with Chinese goods

D．China is losing its trade partners

29、   I have been carrying a notebook and pen around with me since I was three. I practiced letters over and over because the act of writing was appealing. Once I could form words, I discovered the beauty of the sentence. The pages transformed into two- or three-line tales about dogs and horses and something else that interested me.

Eventually, I began to understand what it was my heart longed for: to create words and stories. I wrote plays out of the adventures of my American Girl dolls and mimicked(模仿) the mysteries of Harry Potter. I scribbled(涂鸦) across margins in class notes and grabbed any magazine that caught my eye.

I was 11 when I wandered into a Goodwill shop one afternoon with my mother. We searched for treasures and I discovered a row of old typewriters. Most were black, some electric and others manual(手动的), almost all behemoths(庞然大物). Many keys were yellowed with age, but they all shone up at me like magic. I spent long minutes opening cases, tapping keys, shifting rollers to hear that oh-so-delightful ping.At last, I came across a small tan case. Inside was a 1950s baby blue Smith Corona typewriter. I was instantly attracted.

I begged my mom to buy it. Despite my puppy-dog eyes, we left without it. Months passed, and the typewriter left my mind. Christmas arrived with a usual number of presents, until we reached the last one: a tiny box behind the tree. Inside I found a typewriter tape, along with instructions to look under my brother’s bed. With a scream I dashed for his room and found a familiar tan case hidden below.

Within minutes, I had the baby blue beauty set up at our dining table and paper gathered. Growing up, I spent many hours pulling out the typewriter whenever I wanted to copy handwritten stories or needed inspiration.I dragged it with me when I moved from Illinois to Washington.

My typewriter made my childhood dreams of being a writer feel real. Its well-worn keys stoked the creativity in my soul. The words I imagined went from the scribbled pages of notebooks to the print of the typewriter. It was as if I was turning these fantasies into published works all on my own.

【1】What happened after the author was able to write a sentence?

A.She developed an interest in writing. B.She took to practising her handwriting.

C.She showed much affection for pets. D.She became a huge Harry Potter fan.

【2】Why was the author attracted to the 1950s Smith Corona typewriter?

A.It had yellow keys originally.

B.It was in better condition than the others.

C.It was of small size and had a unique color.

D.It made a more delightful sound than the rest.

【3】How did the author finally get the typewriter she had desired?

A.She saved up for the typewriter. B.She received it as a prize.

C.She got it as a Christmas gift. D.She got it from the shop owner.

【4】The underlined word “stoked” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to “ ________”.

A.prevented B.increased C.reflected D.consumed

【5】Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.Magical Typewriter B.Happy Childhood C.Power of Words D.Typewritten Wonder

40、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成篇完整的短文。

Life is a series of choices and we can't always foresee the consequences.

Hary Saleem, an obese man with too much money and power, faced a choice. Outside his office waited his personal doctor, bringing him vital news about the only medicine that could save his life. On the other side of the world, one of his engineers waited for his decision on an important matter of business.

His secretary asked whether she could bring the doctor in. The billionaire businessman made his decision. “No, let the fool wait” shouted Saleem, angrily. “Business comes first.” Despite the health problem caused by his huge weight, he was still obsessed with making money. He raised a fat finger, and one of his staff hurried to switch on a large television set.

The screen flashed to life, and Saleem's engineer appeared. The man talked by satellite directly to his master although they were thousands of miles apart. “I's all ready to blow, Mr. Saleem,” he said. “Just say the word.”

His engineer was standing above Pakan Valley in South America. A few months ago, it had been a rainforest. Then Saleem's men had come, cutting down all the valuable plants and forcing the villagers to move out. Across the bottom of the valley, a dam had been built. This would provide power for the factories that Saleem planned to build in that area. The factories would bring him vast profits.

He saw no reason to delay. He ordered the engineer to press the button. And then a cloud of dust rose up, followed shortly by a dull explosion. A large river changed its course and water flooded into the doomed Pakan Valley.

“Good, that's that. Now, get that doctor in here,” he commanded. The doctor came in with a worried look and started to examine his wealthy patient. “You are doing very well, Mr. Saleem,” he said finally. “The new medicine is saving your life. The only difficulty is getting more of it.”

注意：1.所续写的短文词数应为150左右：

2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；

3.续写部分分为二段，每段的开头语已经为你写好；

4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

Paragraph 1

“Can you get more? Money is no problem,” Saleem said.
