much older about 4.5 billion years old.new pictures taken by a telescope in space show ancient galaxies (星系) that blow those numbers away. some of these images show galaxies that are about 13 billion years old. the universe itself is only about 13.7 billion years old, so these galaxies formed when the universe was very young.“we are looking back 13 billion years and seeing galaxies just 600 to 700 million years after the big bang，” says richard ellis who studied the pictures. the pictures came from the hubble space telescope, which floats through space around the earth, 353 miles up.scientists found that the most distant reaches of space have fewer bright galaxies than closer regions. the decrease in the number of galaxies was not surprising, based on what astronomers have already learned about the universe. to look deep into space is the same as looking back in time, because light from faraway galaxies takes a long time to reach the earth. when astronomers look at a picture of a distant star of galaxy, they are seeing light that took billions of years to travel to the earth. so when scientists look at these new pictures of distant galaxies, they see the star or galaxy as it looked millions or billions of years ago, at a time when the first galaxies were just forming.to take these pictures, the telescope used a new tool called the wide field camera 3, or wfc3. like an ordinary camera, this one takes pictures using visible light. but in addition, it also records pictures at wavelengths the eye can not see, including ultraviolet(紫外线的) light and infrared(红外线的) light.all of the galaxies in these pictures showed up in a tiny area of the sky. this part of sky is so small that 150 pieces the same size would fit into the apparent size of the full moon. because this part of the sky is so small and the wfc3 just started taking pictures this summer, the scientists say theyre not sure that theyll find similar galaxies in every direction.but they do believe wfc3 will give scientists some very interesting information about the early universe. “this is a golden moment.” says ellis.1. when did the big bang happen?a. about 13 billion years ago.b. about 13.7 billion years ago.c. about 600700 years ago.d. about 4.5 billion years ago.2. why do fewer bright galaxies exist in deep space?a. because the galaxies were too old.b. because the telescope cant take pictures of them.c. because the light of the galaxies cant be seen yet.d. because their light is blocked by those in closer regions.3. the unique function of the wfc3 is that it can _.a. provide information of galaxies in every directionb. be fixed on the outside of the hubble space telescopec. focus on the tiny area of the skyd. take picture using invisible light4. by saying “this is a golden moment.” in the last paragraph, ellis meant _.a. it is a special chance to find gold in other starsb. it is a wonderful time to observe a full moonc. it is an exciting time to research the early universed. it is very convenient to take photos with wfc35. the purpose of the text is to _.a. express the writers interest in the universeb. describe astronomers work on galaxiesc. present a scientific research report on the origin of the universed. imagine traveling in space in the future.阅读简答(10 min.)in the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. this sometimes happens with humans also. but i have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. i see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. and i have discovered that it makes them happy. from my wheelchair experience, i see the best in people, but sometimes i feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness in others i see daily. they dont get to see this soft side of others. often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. but only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in them. last month, when i was driving home on a busy highway, i began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. people behind me began to speed, horn or even shout at me. at the moment i decided to do something i had never done in twentyfour years of driving. i put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed. no more angry shouts and no more horns!when i put on my flashlights, i was saying to other drivers, “i have a problem here. i am weak and doing the best i can. ” and everyone understood. several times, i saw drivers who wanted to pass. they couldnt get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. but instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak. sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont feel that way. but those are few and far between. more often, it would be better if we dont pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared. 1. how do people feel when they offer their help? (no more than 2 words)_2. what reaction did other drivers have when the author drove very slowly at first? (no more than 5 words)_3. why did other drivers behave differently when the author put on the car flashlights? (no more than 8 words)_4. what does the author advise us to do at last? (no more than 8 words)_.写作(25 min.)请你根据以下提示，结合生活中的一个事例，用英语写一篇短文，谈谈如何对待朋友。if its very painful for you to criticize your friends, youre safe in doing it. i dont need a friend who changes when i change and who nods when i nod; my shadow does that much better.注意：1无须写标题；2内容只需涉及一个方面；3文中出现的姓名一律用李明；4词数：不少于120。_名词.完形填空(2011全国新课标卷改编)in our discussion with people on how education can help them succeed in life, a woman remembered the first meeting of an introductory _1_ course about 20 years ago.the professor marched into the lecture hall, placed upon his desk a large jar filled with dried beans(豆), and invited the _2_ to guess how many beans the jar contained. after listening to shouts of wildly wrong guesses the professor smiled a thin, dry smile, announced the correct _3_， and went on saying, “you have just learned an important _4_ about science. that is: never trust your own _5_.”twenty years later, the _6_ could guess what the professor had in mind. he saw himself, perhaps, as inviting his students to start an exciting _7_ into an unknown world invisible (无形的) to the _8_，which can be discovered only through scientific _9_. but the seventeenyearold girl could not accept or even hear the invitation. she was just beginning to understand the world. and she believed that her firsthand experience could be the _10_. the professor, however, said that it was wrong. he was taking away her only _11_ for knowing and was providing her with no substitute. “i remember feeling small and frightened，” the woman says, “and i did the only thing i could do. i dropped the _12_ that afternoon, and i havent gone near science since.”1. a. art b. historyc. science d. math2. a. students b. teachersc. beans d. desks3. a. idea b. excusec. answer d. apology4. a. lesson b. lecturec. job d. task5. a. feelings b. sensesc. eyes d. means6. a. lecturer b. scientistc. speaker d. woman7. a. voyage b. movementc. change d. rush8. a. professor b. eye c. knowledge d. light9. a. model b. senses c. spirit d. methods10. a. growth b. strength c. faith d. truth11. a. task b. tool c. success d. connection12. a. school b. collegec. course d. research.单项填空()13. why do you choose to work in an international travel agency? well, you know, english is my_. so it is my best choice.
