It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts（花生）, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly(坚决地): No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I should have a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmasters office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year when the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.（1）_ helped me decide what my report would be about.A .

Silly and lazy.B . Clever but unlucky.C . Proud and confident.D . Brave and hard-working.14. （6分）阅读理解Every year hundreds of people try to climb the worlds highest mountain or walk through rainforests(雨林).

On his trip, Ed had to look for fruit or catch fish each morning. Sometimes food was hard to find and Ed was often tired and hungry.

It is a planet that could support life.This planet is just 4.2 light years away from us. It is so close that space scientists have considered it as a next door neighbor. They say it could be reached by an unmanned spaceship before the end of the century - in time for people alive today to see it.An international team of scientists found the planet moving around the star called Proxima Centauri. The result came out last month from the scientific magazine Nature.Scientists have long thought that a planet with water is important for life. And it has to be neither too hot nor too cold. The newly-discovered planet is a little larger than earth Scientists have named it Proxima B. It moves around its sun, Proxima Centauri, once every 11 days.American scientists have been using instruments for years to look for earth-like planets. In 2013, scientists best guess was that there are about one billion (1,000 million) earths in space.Alan Boss is the chairman of a group for outer space research. He said that Proxima B not only confirms (确认) the discovery of a planet, but also increases the number of other possible“earths” greatly.Boss said it is possible, even likely, that most stars have at least one earth-like planet, which he considers surprising.So from the early number of a billion, this new research suggests there may be as many possible earth-like planets as there are stars in the Galaxy (银河系). That is, anywhere from 250 billion to 500 billion earths.This makes the possibility of living things increasingly likely Boss said he believes human beings will be able to show that there is life in places besides earth in his lifetime. I am 65, he said, but I expect to still be alive when it happens.（1）When will it be possible for an unmanned spaceship to reach Proxima B? A . In about eighty years.B . In about 4.2 years.C . In about eleven days.D . In about one billion years.（2）In the fourth paragraph, the writer thinks that _ is necessary for life. A . waterB . lightC . airD . wind（3）What does the underlined word This stand for in the last paragraph? A . Scientists have discovered an earth-like planet last month.B . There are far more earth-like planets than people thought.C . Proxima B is not far from earth and is just like our neighbor.D . The Galaxy will be the only place for living things to live in.（4）What does Alan Boss mean by saying but I expect to still be alive when it happens? A . His health is in good state and hes sure he will live a long life.B . Science is developing much faster than ever in recent years.C . Scientists may soon find fact that theres life on other planets.D . America is far ahead of other countries in space research.四、 任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案与在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 A.

No one without a pilots license should be allowed to have one.Something bad or unexpected can happen when people send up a self-controlled flying machine like a drone without knowing how to really control it. Drones can become flyaways, and can be caught up on a jet stream (喷气流) and blown away. A falling drone can do much damage (损害) to buildings and people.Though drones can be harmful, they can be very helpful.At a sports event, drones can be used to give the spectators (观众) a view from above or help coaches see how their players are doing.They are also becoming a useful tool for firefighters, helping them find and fight wildfires. Drones can watch secretly on populations of animals in the wild, especially endangered ones.In some faraway places in the w
