Thefollowing are the top 3 most spectacular places on earth. Fly Geyser, Nevada Actually, the Fly Geyser is man- made .It's one of Nevada's coolest attractionsthat was created 100 years ago. Before it became the alien looking geyser(喷泉) we seetoday, it was simply a man-made well in the l900s. The Bermuda Triangle The Bermuda Triangle is one of the world's biggest mysterious triangles. It's a region in the North Atlantic Ocean where a large number of airplane and shipsdisappeared without explanation. There are many theories about the Bermuda Triangle,but no one knows for sure the answer of this greatestmystery.Godafoss Waterfall, Northern Iceland Godafoss Waterfall(神灵瀑布) is an unmissable attraction on your trip to Iceland. It is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Europe. This gorgeous waterfall truly deserves that name.

The text is most probably taken from a_______.A. an advertisementB. a textbookC. a travel magazineD. a medical newspaperBThe months are familiar to everyone. Nearly any small child can rattle off the twelve months of the year. But how and why did the names come into being?Every month’s name tells a story. January is named after Janus, a Roman god described as having two faces, one looking forward and one looking back. As the god of doors, he had to watch out for friends and enemies coming from either direction.February is a form of februare, which was a Roman festival. On that day, people begged the gods for healthy children and enough crops in the next year.March is named after Mars, whom many people have read about as the god of wars. Few people realize that at first Mars was the god of springtime. Fighters would “take the winter off” from fighting, resting while the weather was to obad for the battle. In the spring-around what we now think of as March battles would start again. From this time line, Mars soon became more well known as the god of wars than of springtime.April is a mystery. Experts argue a lot about the origin of it.May is also named after a goddess, Maika. She was the goddess of plants, because plants often begin to have flowers in May.Not every month kept the same name over the years. The first name for July was Quintilis, “the fifth month”. August was at first called Sextilis, “the sixth month”. Likewise, September, October, November, and December were the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth months. How did July and August get their new names? July was named after Julius Caesar, the first emperor of Rome, after he was killed in 66 BC. August was named after Augustus Caesar, Julius Caesar’s nephew.24.

According to the passage, which of the following months is named after a festival?A. February.B. March.C. April.D. May.CA popular Chinese mob ile game, “King of Glory,” has been criticized for promoting an inaccurate representation of ancient Chinese history.State media Guangming Daily published an article on March 28 blaming the game for distorting history.” The articleclaimed that, despite using many famous names from Chinese history, "King of Glory" completely misrepresented the figures’ true stories and status.According to the newspaper, famous poet Li Bai from the Tang Dynasty became an assassin ( 刺客 ), while noted doctor Bian Que from the Spring and Autumn Period was cast as an expert on poison. More than 60 characters in the game were characters from history, including many from the classic novel “Romance of the Three Kingdoms.”“They (the characters in the game) not only travel through time and space to fight together, but also take on historical figures’ names with no connection at all to their experiences in history,” the newspaper argued, adding that this characteristic could easily confuse young players. Some 54 percent of the game’s players are aged between 11 and 20, the newspaper added.“King of Glory” is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game designed by Tencent Games. It was launched in 20xx. In 20xx, the total profit of the game reached nearly 7 billion RMB, some 18 percent of the total profit for mobile gaming in China.The Guangming Daily article was met with significant support and approval. Some people pointed to online search results for the historical figures, which increasingly provideinformation about the characters in the game rather than the real historical figures.However, some hit back at the criticism, arguing that games are supposed to be creative, and that “King of Glory” doesn’t claim to be set in any specific historical period.“I am aware that there are many young players, some even in primary school. Some might be affected by the game in certain ways, but it can do a lot of good if students become interested in the characters and do more research to that end,” one “King of Glory” player told the People’s Daily Online.28. What does the underlined word “distorting” in paragragh2 mean?A. Reflecting.B. Twisting.C. Recording.D. Creating.29. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. About half of the game’s players range from11 to 20 in age.B. In 20xx the total profit for mobile games in China amounts to about 39 billion RMB.C. You may get information about the assassin Li Bai in the game through a search engine.D. Many young players become interested in the historical figures through the game.30. What is the author’s main purpose of writing the passage?A. To introduce the game to the public.B. To present that the game has become a target for criticism.C. To explain why the game is popular.D. To convince people that the game is distorting history.31. What’s the author’s attitude towards the game?A. Favorable.B. Disapproving.C. Doubtful.D. Objective.DFor years, people have wondered whether there's life on other planets. Scientists may now be closer than ever to answering that question.Using powerful telescopes, a team of astronomers in South America discovered a new planet, called Proxima b. It circles a star named Proxima Centauri, in the same way Earth circles the sun. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our solar system.Scientists believe the new planet has a rocky surface and is similar in size to Earth. More importantly, they’ve determined that the distance between Proxima b and its “sun” gives the planet a similar temperature to Earth’s. This means it could have liquid water. The presence of water on a planet makes it possible for life to exist there. Scientistsrefer to planets like Proxima b as “Goldilocks planets” because they are not too hot or too cold, but just right to possibly support life.Astronomers have found other Goldilocks planets in the past, but none are as close to Earth as Proxima b. Still, the new planet is 4.2 light years from Earth—that is about 25 trillion miles away.Despite the long distance, astronomers hope to get a much better look at our new-found neighbor one day. But they’ll need to wait until more advanced telescopes are developed. They may also send a robotic spacecraft to investigate the planet.32. Earth is to the sun what _____.A. Proxima Centauri is to Proxima bB. Proxima b is to Proxima CentauriC. Proxima b is to the solar systemD. the solar system is to Proxima b33.

Planets like Proxima bare referred to as “ Goldilocks planets” because of _____.A. the presence of waterB. their temperatureC.the life on them D. their size35. We can infer from the last paragraph that _____.A. existing telescopes are still far from advancedB. astronomers have a long way to go to explore the new planetC. the long distance will prevent astronomers fromexploring the new planetD. astronomers have got the whole picture of the new planet第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
