The world's largest radio telescope was finished on Sept. 25, 2017 in China.FAST is a five-hundred-meter telescope. It is also called Tian-yan ("The Eye of Heaven"), with a dish the sire of 30 football grounds, deep in the mountains of southwest China's Guizhou Province.

The second largest radio telescope is in Russia. The bigger dish will be able to pick up weaker signals (信号).The radio telescope is like an ear, listening to tell meaningful radio messages from white noise in the universe. With the help of the telescope, we can receive weaker and more radio messages far away in space. It will help us to search for intelligent life outside of the Galaxy (银河系) and explore the origins (起源) of the universe. "Any of its discoveries will lead to a Nobel Prize," said Joseph Taylor, a Noble Prize winner.The FAST project began in 2011. And the telescope is expected to remain the global leader for the next 10 to 20 years.(1)Where was FAST developed?A . In China.B . In Russia.C .

Some of them are small and some of them are large.They might be very close to you, or even live in your house. But there are also others that maybe you will never meet.You bring them home to be your pets, friends, and helpers. You put them in zoos. You kill them for their meat or parts of their bodies. And you even hunt (猎杀) them for fun. They bring you money and happiness. But they also bring you disease (疾病) and death (死亡).I hope you can remember that wild animals are not your food or clothes.

She walked slowly along behind her elder brother, Bill, as they were on the way up to the small house at the fire lookout tower (火警瞭望塔)in a national forest park. Some large meat—eating birds flew in circles lazily in the sky above them, and Wendy wondered if they would eat her if she died out there in the park. The sun was too hot. The trees and grass were ugly (丑陋)and the trip was boring.“Almost there!” Bill said excitedly. This was his first summer job. He would work as a fire watcher in the national forest park. He would be staying on top of a mountain all summer, watching for fires in the national forest park. He was excited and didn’t find how tired Wendy was.Finally, Wendy couldn't walk further if she didn’t sit down and take a rest first. She stopped and sat under the tall tree and drank some water from her bottle. Bill kept walking on for quite a few minutes before he knew that Wendy was no longer behind him.“Sorry,” he said, going back and sitting beside his sister. “I forgot your legs are shorter than mine.”Wendy made a face at her brother and laughed. Then Bill handed Wendy some dried strawberries and peanuts (花生)from his backpack. “If you eat them together, it is like making a peanut butter and jelly (果酱)sandwich in your mouth,” he said.The strawberries and peanuts tasted delicious. Wendy closed her eyes, reached out her arms and legs, and moved her toes (脚趾)in her hiking shoes. She heard a songbird singing nearby and caught the smell of flowers in nature. Suddenly, the sun didn’t seem so hot and the trees weren’t ugly anymore.33.The story happened ________.A.in a national forest parkB.on top of a mountainC.on the way to schoolD.at the fire lookout tower34.Why does the writer describe the environment in Paragraph 1?A.To show how terrible the environment was.B.To show Wendy didn’t enjoy the trip.C.To tell us Wendy might die if she kept walking like thisD.To tell us where Wendy and Bill were going and what they were going to do.35.Bill might be a ________boy according to (根据)the sentence “I forgot your legs are shorter than mine.” in Paragraph 4.A.strong B.hardworking C.serious D.fun36.What can we infer(推断)from the article?A.Bill is older than Wendy.B.Bill cared about his sister.C.In Wendy’s eyes, things always looked the same.D.It was a hot day and the trees were beautiful.DStephen Hawking, one of the world’s most famous scientists, once said, “Once we step into space, our future should be safe,” Do you agree with him?Today, many countries such as the United States, Russia, China, are building space stations and sending astronauts there. These stations will prepare humans to visit and later live on Mars (火星)or other earth—like planets.Robert Zubrin, a rocket scientist, thinks it is a right thing for the countries to do so. Humans should move to other planets and build new homes there. He wants to start with Mars. Why? He thinks sending people to Mars will help us to learn a lot of things—for example, the ability(能力)of humans to live in a very different environment. In the end, we could work and live on other planets. Besides, any improvement we make in science, technology(科技), medicine and health will do good to people here on Earth.Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of Space X, a company(公司)that builds rockets, also believes we should send humans to Mars. He doesn’t want to send just “one little mission(使命),” though. His long—term plan is to put one million people there if some bad things happen to us here on Earth.Not everyone thinks sending humans into space is a smart idea. Many people say it’s too expensive. Also, most space trips are not short. A one-way trip to Mars, for example, would take at least six months. People who have such a long way to travel could face many health problems. What’ more, these first people would find life terribly difficult in space. On the moon’s surface(表面), forexample, the sun’s rays(光线)are very dangerous. People would have to stay indoors most of the time.Although there will be lots of difficulties, sending people into space seems certain. As the saying goes, “My conquest(征途)is the sea of stars.” In the future, we might see cities or even new human cultures on other planets.37.Both Robert Zubrin and Elon Musk probably agree that ________.A.it’s impossible to send humans into spaceB.people should live on the moon in the futureC.it’s not a good idea to live on the earthD.it’s necessary to send humans to other planets like Mars38.From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A.Stephen Hawking is one of the world’s most famous scientistsB.humans will be dangerous if they stay outdoers in spaceC.there are a few reasons not to send humans into spaceD.there are some reasons to travel to Mars39.The structure of the article may be ________.A.B.C.D.40.Which of the following is true?A.Travelling in space is fun and meaningfulB.In Paragraph 1, the word “our” means humans’.C.To prepare humans to live on the moon a lot of countries are planning to build space stations. D.Not everyone agrees that humans should move to other planets because humans know nothing about space.四、补全对话7选5阅读下面对话,从7 个选项中选择 5 个恰当的句子完成对话。

She walked slowly along behind her elder brother, Bill, as they were on the way up to the small house at the fire lookout tower (火警瞭望塔)in a national forest park. Some large meat—eating birds flew in circles lazily in the sky above them, and Wendy wondered if they would eat her if she died out there in the park. The sun was too hot. The trees and grass were ugly (丑陋)and the trip was boring.“Almost there!” Bill said excitedly. This was his first summer job. He would work as a fire watcher in the national forest park. He would be staying on top of a mountain all summer, watching for fires in the national forest park. He was excited and didn’t find how tired Wendy was.Finally, Wendy couldn't walk further if she didn’t sit down and take a rest first. She stopped and sat under the tall tree and drank some water from her bottle. Bill kept walking on for quite a few minutes before he knew that Wendy was no longer behind him.“Sorry,” he said, going back and sitting beside his sister. “I forgot your legs are shorter than mine.”Wendy made a face at her brother and laughed. Then Bill handed Wendy some dried strawberries and peanuts (花生)from his backpack. “If you eat them together, it is like making a peanut butter and jelly (果酱)sandwich in your mouth,” he said.The strawberries and peanuts tasted delicious. Wendy closed her eyes, reached out her arms and legs, and moved her toes (脚趾)in her hiking shoes. She heard a songbird singing nearby and caught the smell of flowers in nature. Suddenly, the sun didn’t seem so hot and the trees weren’t ugly anymore.33.The story happened ________.A.in a national forest parkB.on top of a mountainC.on the way to schoolD.at the fire lookout tower34.Why does the writer describe the environment in Paragraph 1?A.To show how terrible the environment was.B.To show Wendy didn’t enjoy the trip.C.To tell us Wendy might die if she kept walking like thisD.To tell us where Wendy and Bill were going and what they were going to do.35.Bill might be a ________boy according to (根据)the sentence “I forgot your legs are shorter than mine.” in Paragraph 4.A.strong B.hardworking C.serious D.fun36.What can we infer(推断)from the article?A.Bill is older than Wendy.B.Bill cared about his sister.C.In Wendy’s eyes, things always looked the same.D.It was a hot day and the trees were beautiful.DStephen Hawking, one of the world’s most famous scientists, once said, “Once we step into space, our future should be safe,” Do you agree with him?Today, many countries such as the United States, Russia, China, are building space stations and sending astronauts there. These stations will prepare humans to visit and later live on Mars (火星)or other earth—like planets.Robert Zubrin, a rocket scientist, thinks it is a right thing for the countries to do so. Humans should move to other planets and build new homes there. He wants to start with Mars. Why? He thinks sending people to Mars will help us to learn a lot of things—for example, the ability(能力)of humans to live in a very different environment. In the end, we could work and live on other planets. Besides, any improvement we make in science, technology(科技), medicine and health will do good to people here on Earth.Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of Space X, a company(公司)that builds rockets, also believes we should send humans to Mars. He doesn’t want to send just “one little mission(使命),” though. His long—term plan is to put one million people there if some bad things happen to us here on Earth.Not everyone thinks sending humans into space is a smart idea. Many people say it’s too expensive. Also, most space trips are not short. A one-way trip to Mars, for example, would take at least six months. People who have such a long way to travel could face many health problems. What’ more, these first people would find life terribly difficult in space. On the moon’s surface(表面), forexample, the sun’s rays(光线)are very dangerous. People would have to stay indoors most of the time.Although there will be lots of difficulties, sending people into space seems certain. As the saying goes, “My conquest(征途)is the sea of stars.” In the future, we might see cities or even new human cultures on other planets.37.Both Robert Zubrin and Elon Musk probably agree that ________.A.it’s impossible to send humans into spaceB.people should live on the moon in the futureC.it’s not a good idea to live on the earthD.it’s necessary to send humans to other planets like Mars38.From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A.Stephen Hawking is one of the world’s most famous scientistsB.humans will be dangerous if they stay outdoers in spaceC.there are a few reasons not to send humans into spaceD.there are some reasons to travel to Mars39.The structure of the article may be ________.A.B.C.D.40.Which of the following is true?A.Travelling in space is fun and meaningfulB.In Paragraph 1, the word “our” means humans’.C.To prepare humans to live on the moon a lot of countries are planning to build space stations. D.Not everyone agrees that humans should move to other planets because humans know nothing about space.四、补全对话7选5阅读下面对话,从7 个选项中选择 5 个恰当的句子完成对话。
