【題目】 Many of us think, wrongly, that the moon doesn’t change. For example, the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu once wrote that “Generations have come and passed away; From year to year the moons took alike, old and new.”

However, a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that the moon is in fact slowly shrinking over time. For the study, a group of US scientists examined and analyzed thousands of photographs taken by the NASA orbiter Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (月球勘測(cè)軌道飛行器照相機(jī)) . They found that there were lots of faults (斷層) on the surface of the moon. These faults were formed by recent movement on the moon.

According to NASA, the moon is made up of pieces of rocks with a hot core () .The moon continued to expand as it was born. But in this process, it released energy and cooled down. Then it began to shrink, in a way comparable to the shrinking of a grape into a raisin (葡萄干) . Over the past several hundred million years, it has become 46 meters “skinnier”. But due to its hard and rocky crust (外殼) . the moon’s surface continues to push up, “Some of these quakes can be fairly strong around five on the Richter scale (里氏震級(jí) ) ,” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in the US.

But does that mean the moon is a dangerous place that human shouldn’t try to explore and live on in the future? Maybe not, reported the Telegraph, “This isn’t anything to worry about. The moon may be shrinking, but not by much. It’s not going anywhere,” Watters comforted us.

The new discovery proves that the idea that the moon is a dead, boring place is wrong. “We have been to the moon and we’ve done some great science, but there is still a lot we don’t know. The moon is shrinking — we didn’t really realize that until recently. It’s a much more active and interesting place than we thought and we should explore that,” NASA scientist Nathan Williams said.

1Which point of view about the moon may the writer agree to?

A.It stays the same as before.B.It is becoming lightly smaller.

C.It is getting older and older.D.It has passed away.

2What can we learn about the moon from the third paragraph?

A.It has become 46 meters fatter due to expanding.

B.It has changed from a grape into a raisin in recent years.

C.It quakes even at seven on the Richter scale.

D.It has a hot core and releases energy during expanding.

3Who thinks that we needn’t worry about the moon?

A.Zhang Ruoxu.B.Thomas Watters.

C.Nathan Williams.D.The journalist.

4What does Nathan Williams think of the moon?

A.It is a dead and boring place.B.It has lots of faults on the surface.

C.It is valuable to do more science.D.It isn’t a place where we can live.

【題目】Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to connect the brain with computers. Brain-computer Interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.

Recently, two scientists, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytehnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, showed a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts. In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.

“Our brain has billions of body cells(細(xì)胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the body part to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outer world and also to control machines.”

The scientists designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(頭皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer finds meanings of the signals and commands the wheelchair with an engine. The wheelchair also has two cameras that tell objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.

Prof. Millan, the team leader, says “Scientists keep improving the computer software that finds meanings of brain signals and turns them into simple commands. The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two kinds: communication, and controlling objects. One example is this wheelchair.

He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can get advantages from. And the other is to ensure that they can use the technology over a long period of time.

1BCI is a technology that can _______.

A. help to update computer systems B. control a person’s thoughts

C. help the disabled to recover D. connect the human brain with computers

2How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?

A. By controlling his muscles. B. By using his mind.

C. By moving his hand. D. By talking to the machine.

3Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 4?

A. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair

C. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair

4The team will test with real patients to_______.

A. make money from them B. prove the technology useful to them

C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition

5Which of the following statements is FALSE?

A. Scientists have been looking for ways to link the brain with computers.

B. The wheelchair designed by Millan and Tavella is directed by a person’s thoughts.

C. Spinal cord injuries can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.

D. The wheelchair has been put in use and benefited real patients.

【題目】Things I Wish I’d Known in High School

Sometimes high school seems like a necessary evil. Now at the end of my college journey, I know that there are still more things I could have done to make my high school experience more beneficial.

1 Take a class that scares you during high school. The experience will definitely prepare you for future academic challenges.

Don’t worry about your grades too much. Getting a B is not the end of the world.2 I started college with all A’s since seventh grade, and it was hard to deal with not being able to repeat that. I stayed away from taking some harder courses I might have done well in because I was afraid of doing poorly. Now, I can fully accept that if I try my best in at least one harder class and get a B+, that is still something to be proud of.

Find your own de-stressing routine. Another essential skill to begin building in high school is how to manage work and stress. Maybe you deal with stress by going for a run, or watching a silly movie. Talk with a friend for a while or play with your dog.3

Spend your summers wisely. Don't take on a full-time job the first summer you decide to work.4 Do find something to do that will make the ten weeks worthwhile. Look for programs that take you to interesting places, or a job that will give you insight into something you might be interested in.

Finally, remember to have fun. Your life does not depend on high school.5 You will have plenty of time to work hard in college and beyond. Be prepared, but don’t stress out too much about it. If you can make your high school experience fun, you will have no problem doing the same for your life in college and beyond.

A. In fact, it’s kind of a good thing.

B. Take full advantage of your brain.

C. You do have to be active about making friends.

D. Do your best, but leave time for fun with friends.

E. Forty hours a week will be a huge shock and you'll have plenty of time for that in the future.

F. Find out what relaxes you, and you will feel less stressed.

G. They will be improved if you make great efforts.

【題目】 I was taking in the breathtaking view from the top of Sydney Harbor Bridge when I sensed I was about to witness something even more dramatic right in front of me. Although we were all tied to lines running along the steel girders, a fellow climber called Mike had somehow managed to drop onto bended knee and turn to face his girlfriend, Wendy. I knew what was coming. “Wendy, will you marry me?” he asked. There was a quick smile and an attempted kiss and then a big beam. Mike had the answer he hoped for and all of us burst into a round of applause.

Apparently more than 2,000 couples have become engaged ( ) at the summit since 1998, when it became possible to climb it in organized tour groups. The bridge, perhaps the most recognized symbol of this beautiful city, opened in 1932. It's still the world's largest steel-arch bridge.

We returned to the fantastic view: the famous Sydney Opera House, ferries and sailboats making their way through the harbor, the city skyline — but I had to force myself to look down. We had climbed 1,423 steps to the top of the bridge and I didn't know whether to be delighted or scared.

Nicole Kidman has done it. So have Bruce Springsteen, Prince Harry and scores of other celebrities. But climbing to the top clearly isn't just for the rich and famous. On the contrary, Australian youngsters do it to celebrate their 12th birthdays. (You have to be at least 12 years old to do the climb.) A 100-year-old woman climbed it and told guides it was on her list of things to do before she died.

You can climb during the day, at twilight, or even after dark with headlamps. People climb in all weathers except when there's lightning in the area. In fact, over two million people have made the three-and-a-half-hour climb to the top of the famous bridge—an adventure that cannot be done anywhere else in the world on a bridge this big. That's probably why this climb has won a lot of tourism awards. Today, the climb is firmly on the "to-do" list for locals as well as tourists.

1What can we learn on the bridge is quite rare?

A.Getting engaged on the bridge is quite rare.

B.People climb the bridge on climbers’ age.

C.There are no limitations on climbers’ age.

D.Many famous people have done the climb.

2How did the author feel when he climbed to the top of the bridge?

A.Bored and tiredB.Fearful and confused

C.Excited and nervousD.Relived and relaxed

3What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A.To introduce the popularity of the bridge.

B.To emphasize the importance of the bridge

C.To explain the functions of the bridge.

D.To describe the fantastic view from the bridge.

【題目】 Check off the Four Corners

Arizona,Utah,Colorado and New Mexico are not simply the only four American states that meet at a single point, but they also host the US's greatest concentration of national parks.

This is the place to come for that classic scene of the lonely desert road extending to the horizon. On your way,take in such sights as the Monument Valley and the mysterious remains of centuries-old civilizations in Colorado’s Mesa Verde.

Find beauty in the desert

With many miles of excellent roads,a self-drive trip in Namibia makes total sense. Plan a route north from capital Windhoek to wildlife-rich Etosha National Parkbefore crossing Damaraland to reach the Skeleton Coast. The most impressive desert views are in the Namib-Naulduft National Park to the south. At Sossusvlei,the landscape takes on the quality of a surrealist painting.

Cross half a continent

The 1,761-mile-long Stuart Highway runs north to south through Australia’s Red Centre. It is not a road where every turn shows new wonders ; the reward of this trip comes in the gradual change in your surroundings, from red soils’ in Australia’s outback to the tropical (熱帶的) leaves of the Indian Ocean coast.

Take the high road

Among all the crashing of continental plates that raised up the Canadian Rockies, a 144-mile route was left more or less clear at their center. The Icefields Parkway now passes through this amazing scenery; with the access it brings to icy lakes, waterfalls and icefields, the section between Banff and Jasper has a good claim to being the most scenic in the world.
