12、 (炸面圈饼）with Dad”.It was an event being held by the school to honor close father child relationship.But Vazquez,who is a single parent,did not want her son to be left out from the event Instead,she and Elijah drove home so that she could change her appearance.“I know seeing other dads with their kids

13、 isnt easy for mine but its life,at least I can do whatever it takes to put a smile on that face,” wrote Vazquez in the post.The post has received more than 18,000 reactions.One user called Ceci Solis wrote,“Tears are coming down my face.”She added,“Its hard not having a dad to do that.Its just amaz

17、icture, and it looks normal at a distance. But a new 3D map reveals a surprise:_.The Milky Way is a spiral(漩涡型的) galaxy, in which stars and gas clouds exist mainly in its spiral “arms”. Our massive neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy(仙女座), is also spiral. Spiral galaxies usually appear very flat and easy

18、 to see through a telescope, said the researchers.Using 1,339 large, pulsating(脉冲的) stars to make a 3D map of the Milky Way, researchers discovered instead that the galaxys disk of stars is increasingly twisting，most likely due to the spinning of the disk. And the farther the stars are from the cent

19、er, the more twisted it becomes.Previously, astronomers saw evidence of hydrogen clouds becoming warped(弯曲的) in the Milky Way. This isnt completely abnormal, because astronomers have noticed the same pattern of progressively twisting spirals in about a dozen other galaxies. But it does help them mak

20、e more sense of our galaxy.Because we live in this galaxy, that makes it harder to observe, and dust and starlight make it even more difficult when using telescopes. Trying to determine what our galactic center looks like is similar to trying to find the center of a forest youre standing in.“It is e

21、xtremely difficult to determine distances from the Sun to parts of the Milky Ways outer gas disk without having a clear idea of what that disk actually looks like,” lead study author Xiaodian Chen of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing said in a statement.From afar, the Milky Way appears like

22、 a thin rotating(旋转的) disk of stars, orbiting the center every few hundred million years. In the center, hundreds of billions of stars and dark matter hold the galaxy together.But as you move toward the outermost reaches of the galaxy, the gravitational glue of the center fades. In the outer disk, t

23、his keeps hydrogen gas from being restricted, which contributes to an S-shaped warping.“Somewhat to our surprise, we found that in 3D our collection of 1339 stars and the Milky Ways gas disk follow each other closely. This offers new insights into the formation of our home galaxy,” Richard de Grijs,

24、 senior study co-author and professor at Macquarie Universitys Department of Physics and Astronomy, said in a statement. “Perhaps more importantly, in the Milky Ways outer regions, we found that the S-like stellar(星的) disk is warped in a progressively Twisted spiral pattern.”So the massive inner dis

25、ks rotational force causes the outer disk to warp, the researchers concluded.“This research provides a crucial updated map for studies of our galaxys stellar motions and the origins of the Milky Way,” said Licai Deng, co-author and senior researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in a statement

26、.1、Which of the following might be the missing sentence in the first paragraph?AThe Milky Way is being warped and twisted by its stars.BThe Milky Way is spiral and orbiting itself all the time.CThe formation of our home galaxy is due to the force of gravity.DThe origin of the Milky Way lies in its r

27、otational force.2、What does the underlined “this” refer to?Athe Milky WayBthe gravitational glueCthe fading of gravityDthe outermost reach of the galaxy3、Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe galaxy we live in is unique for its special spirals.BThe stars in the center of the M

28、ilky Way are more twisted.CThe distance from the sun to other stars is already known to scientists.DThe rotation of its inner center forces the Milky Way to twist.4、What is the significance of this finding?AIt reveals why the Milky Way is a flat and spiral galaxy.BIt leads to a breakthrough of using

29、 3D technology in space research.CIt proves a previous way of observing the Milky Way while we are living in it.DIt contributes to our knowledge about the Milky Way.23（8分）One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summ

30、er. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange probleminability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Childrens Room”. I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently h

31、ad a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my “secret sharer”, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the books cover was a beagle which looked identical(相同的) to my dog

32、. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos: the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a brush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, v

33、ery slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued

34、the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running togetherMy mothers call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be i

35、ncredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous(奇迹)” experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was award

36、ed a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.1、The authors mother told him to borrow a book in order to _.Aencourage him to do more walking Blet him spend a meaningful summerChelp cure him of his reading problem Dmake him learn mor

DThe Charm of a Book.24（8分）During the seventeent

39、h and eighteenth centuries, almost nothing was written about the contribution of women during the colonial period and the early history of the newly formed United States. Lacking the right to vote and absent from the seats of power, women were not considered an important force in history. During the

40、se centuries, women remained invisible in history books.Throughout the nineteenth century, this lack of visibility continued, despite the efforts of female authors writing about women. These writers, like most of their male counterparts, were amateur (业余的) historians. Their writings were celebratory

41、 in nature, and they were uncritical in their selection and use of sources. During the nineteenth century, however, certain feminists showed a keen sense of history by keeping records of activities in which women were engaged. National, regional, and local womens organizations compiled accounts of t

42、heir doings. Personal correspondence, newspaper clippings, and souvenirs were saved and stored. These sources form the core of the two greatest collections of womens history in the United Statesone at the Elizabeth and Arthur Schlesinger Library at Radeliffe College, and the other the Sophia Smith C

43、ollection at Smith College. Such sources have provided valuable materials for later generations of historians.Despite the gathering of more information about ordinary women during the nineteenth century, most of the writing about women adjusted to the “great women” theory of history, just as much of

44、 mainstream American history concentrated on “great men”. To demonstrate that women were making significant contributions to American life, female authors singled out women leaders and wrote biographies, or else important women produced their autobiographies. Most of these leaders were involved in p

45、ublic life as reformers, activists working for womens right to vote, or authors, and were not representative at all of the great mass of ordinary women. The lives of ordinary people continued, generally, to be untold in the American histories being published.1、What does the passage mainly discuss?AT

46、he role of literature in early American histories.BThe place of American women in written histories.CThe keen sense of history shown by American women.DThe “great women” approach to history used by American historians.2、The word “they” in Paragraph 2 refers to .Aefforts BsourcesCwritings Dauthors3、I

47、n the second paragraph, what weakness in nineteenth-century histories does the author point out?AThey put too much emphasis on daily activities.BThey left out discussion of the influence on money or politics.CThe sources of the information they were based on were not necessarily accurate.DThey were

48、printed on poor quality paper.4、What use was made of the nineteenth-century womens history materials in the Schlesinger Library and the Sophia Smith Collection?AThey were combined and published in a multivolume encyclopedia (多卷百科全书) about women.BThey formed the basis of college courses in the ninete

49、enth-century.CThey provided valuable information for twentieth-century historical researchers.DThey were shared among womens colleges throughout the United States.25（10分）Skeptics are a strange lot. Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment, and they are t

50、ired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread nothing but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.Perhaps that explain why

51、 a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much publicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborgs views are similar t

52、o those of some Industry-funded organizations, which start huge activities though the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborgs book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. One nationa

53、l newspaper in Canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “After Lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”Such one-sided views should have immediately been challenged. But only a different review appeared in Nature, a respect

54、ed science magazine with specific readership. The review remarked that Mr. Lomborgs “preference for unexamined materials is incredible (不可信的)”。A critical (批判的) eye is valuable, and the media should present information in such a way that could allow people to make informed decisions. Unfortunately, t

55、hat is often inaccessible as blocked by the desire to be shocking or to defend some special interests. People might become half-blind before a world partially exhibited by the media. Thats a shame, because matters concerning the health of the planet are far too important to be treated lightly.1、 Acc

56、ording to the passage, which of the following may be regarded as “skeptics”?APeople who agree on the popularity of “eco-guilt”.BPeople who disbelieve the serious situation of our planet.CPeople who dislike the harmful effect of human activities.DPeople who spread comforting news to protect our envir

57、onment.2、Which of the following can be a reason for the popularity of Lomborgs books?ASome big businesses intend to protect their own interests. B The book challenges views about the fine state of the world.CThe author convinces people to seek comforting worldviews.DIndustryfunded media present conf

58、using information.3、The author mentioned the review in Nature in order to_.Avoice a different opinionBfind fault with Lomborgs book Cchallenge the authority of the mediaDpoint out the value of scientific views.4、What is the authors main purpose in writing the passage?ATo encourage the skeptics to ha

59、ve a critical eye.BTo warn the public of the danger of halfblindness with reviews.CTo blame the medias lack of responsibility in presenting information.DTo show the importance of presenting overall information by the media.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项
