The Guardian described it as one of the “seven wonders of the modern world” . Construction on the HZMB began in 2009 and cost about 120 billion yuan. The bridge links Hong Kong and Macao to the Chinese mainland city of Zhuhai, CGTN reported.The HZMB is unique in many ways. It’s designed to have a service life of 120 years, 20 years longer than most bridges. It’ s not just a bridge, but also part tunnel and part island. In one section the bridge turns into a 6.7-km undersea tunnel that passes through two man-made islands. The tunnel is the world’s longest undersea tunnel for road traffic, allowing large ships to continue passing through the sea area above the tunnel.The bridge’s engineers had to think of many environmental factors in order to protect the surrounding environment while building the bridge. Chinese white dolphins, an endangered species that lives in the area, were a particular concern.The HZMB will make it much more convenient to travel between the three areas it connects. It will shorten the travel time from Hong Kong to Zhuhai from four hours to about 45 minutes.By drawing local cities and regions closer together, the bridge will help in the area’s development. It is expected to drive the economic development of Hong Kong, Macao and nine Guangdong cities, South China Morning Post noted.11．How long does it take to travel from Hong Kong to Zhuhai through HZMB?A．4 hours.B．2 hours.C．1.5 hours.D．45 minutes.12．What does the underlined word “unique” in Paragraph Two possibly mean?A．usual B．special C．beautiful D．interesting13．The bridge’s engineers have to think of all these things EXCEPT________ .A．the service life B．the animals aroundC．the speed of wind D．the news media14．Which of the following is TRUE about the HZMB?A．HZMB is not only a bridge, but also part tunnel and part island.B．The size of HZMB is 60 times larger than that of the Eiffel Tower.C．Large ships cannot pass through the sea area above the HZMB tunnel.D．HZMB is helpful to the development of Hong Kong, Macao and all Guangdong cities.15．Why does the Guardian describe HZMB as one of the “seven wonders of the modern world”?A．Because it only takes nine years to build the bridge.B．Because HZMB is the longest cross-sea bridge in the world.C．Because the life of HZMB is much longer than any other bridge.D．Because HZMB makes it easier to travel from Hong Kong to Zhuhai.BStephen Hawking, a disabled man with a strong will, who died on March 14, 2018, was born in Oxford, UK, in 1942. He was a world famous scientist and expert on space and time. Stephen was trying to find the answers to some very big questions, such as: How did the universe begin? How will it end?When he was a student at university, Stephen studied math and science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became very ill. He was so young, but the doctors said to his family, “He has only two more years to live.”The doctors were wrong. He didn’t die. He couldn’t walk, but he used a wheelchair. He talked with the help of a computer. After Oxford, Stephen went to Cambridge University. Three years later, in 1965, he became a doctor of philosophy (哲学).Because of his health problems, it was difficult for him to draw diagrams or to write. So he started to think in pictures. With this new way of thinking, he became one of the most famous scientists in the world. Then in 1988, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It sold about 25 million copies in about 40 different languages.Stephen Hawking made great achievements in cosmology with his studies searching the answers to the Big Bang and Black Hole in the universe, which brought him great fame as a leading figure in the science world even though he became totally unable to move in two thirds of his whole life.16．What did Stephen Hawking search for throughout his life?A．He studied philosophy and became a doctor at Cambridge University.B．He was so sick that he couldn’t walk and tried his best to search for his cure.C．He tried his best to search the secrets in science such as the origin of universe, and the end of it.D．He just wanted to tell the story of time in his book.17．How long did the doctors think Hawking could live when he was 20 years old?A．Four more years. B．Two more years.C．Five more years.D．Six more years.18．How did Hawking manage to become one of the top scientists in the world according to the passage?A．By looking at pictures.B．By thinking in pictures.C．By drawing pictures and diagrams.D．By typing on his computer.19．What may probably be the meaning of the underlined word “cosmology” in the last paragraph?A．The study of universe.B．The study of math.C．The study of physics.D．The study of time.20．What made Stephen Hawking achieve great success in science even though he was unable to move during two thirds of his life according to the passage?A．His education.B．His knowledge.C．His bad luck.D．His strong will.CDo you have a lucky number? Many people have a special number and they hope that it will bring them good luck. In China, people think that, some numbers are lucky or unlucky because those numbers sound similar to some Chinese words that mean something good or bad.For example, the word for number 8 sounds like “making lots of money” in Chinese. So, people think it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend much more money to have 8s in their phone numbers. Do you remember the Summer Olympic Games in Beijing? It opened at 8: 08 p. m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and it’s told in many Chinese ancient stories that the dragon has nine children. The number of 9 also means “long lasting”. In China, a man would send 99 or 999 roses to his lover with the wishes that the love between them will be long lasting.What’s more, Chinese think that the number 2 is lucky as it’s said that “all good things come in pairs”. For example, during wedding celebrations, you usually find pairs of red candles, double pillows and many other things in pairs and people often give gifts in pairs for someone’s birthday, wedding or other celebrations.So what’s an unlucky number in China? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as an unlucky numberbecause it sounds similar to the Chinese word “death”. Because of this, many buildings don’t have the fourth floor, and just call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors with the numbered 4, such as 4, 14, 24, 34 and all 40-49 floors. So, a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 36 floors actually.21．What makes Chinese people believe a number is lucky or unlucky?A．the shape of the numbers.B．the quantity of the numbers.C．the history of the numbers.D．the sound of the number in Chinese.22．Some people would pay much more money for ________A．the Summer Olympic Games.B．the phone numbers with 8s.C．the emperors’ robes.D．the wedding celebrations.23．Why would a man like to send 99 roses to his lover?A．Because he thinks that women love roses the best.B．Because the number 9 has a connection o the emperors of China.C．Because he hopes that he will be in love with the woman for a long time.D．Because he wishes that he will have lots of children with the woman in the future.24．In Hong Kong, you may NOT find the ________ floor in some buildings.A．50th B．35th C．46th D．17th25．What is the purpose of the author?A．To describe numbers and ancient stories in China.B．To introduce lucky and unlucky numbers in Chinese culture.C．To help readers find their lucky and unlucky numbers.D．To compare different meanings of numbers in different countries.三、阅读还原（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）根据短文内容，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

One of the most promising sources of renewable energy is solar power. Solar panels, whichconvert sunlight into electricity, are becoming more efficient and less expensive. This has led to a significant increase in the installation of solar panels worldwide.In the United States, for example, the number of residential solar installations has tripled in the past decade. This growth is not only driven by environmental concerns but also by economic factors. As the cost of solar panels continues to drop, more homeowners are finding it financially viable to install them on their rooftops. Additionally, many governments offer incentives such as tax credits and rebates to encourage the adoption of solar energy.However, solar power is not without its challenges. The efficiency of solar panels can be affected by weather conditions and geographical location. In areas with less sunlight, such as some parts of the northern United States, the efficiency of solar panels is lower. Furthermore, solar power is intermittent, meaning it is not always available when it is needed.
