Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick inthe nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by zxxk the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24. What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?A. Efforts made in vain.B. Getting injured in his work.C. Feeling uncertain about his future.D. Creatures forced out of their homes.25. Why was the author called to Muttontown?A. To rescue a woman.B. To take care of a woman.C. To look at a baby owl.D. To cure a young owl.26. What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B. Some food.C. A recording.D. Its parents.27. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A. It’s unexpected.B. It’s beautiful.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouraging.CSome of the world’s most famous musicians re cently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells Nationa l Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider co ntext,” says Moran, “so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”28．Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A．To remember the birth of jazz.B．To protect cultural diversity.C．To encourage people to study music.D．To recognize the value of jazz.29．What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?A．Jazz becoming more accessible.B．The production of jazz growing faster.C．Jazz being less popular with the young.D．The jazz audience becoming larger.30．What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A．It will disappear gradually.B．It remains black and white.C．It should keep up with the times.D．It changes every 50 years.31．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Exploring the Future of Jazz.B．The Rise and Fall of Jazz.C．The Story of a Jazz Musician.D．Celebrating the Jazz Day.DA buld-it-yourself solar still（蒸馏器）is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5’ 5’ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container—perhaps just a drinking cup —to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the watercatcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment zxxk out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. It’s delicate.B. It’s expensive.C. It’s complex.D. It’s portable.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.34. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheet’s center down.D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup form .A. the plastic tubeB. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高考衣食住用行衣：高考前这段时间，提醒同学们出门一定要看天气，否则淋雨感冒，就会影响考场发挥。

穿着自己习惯的衣服，可以让人在紧张时产生亲切感和安全感，并能有效防止不良情绪产生。

食：清淡的饮食最适合考试，切忌吃太油腻或者刺激性强的食物。

如果可能的话，每天吃一两个水果，补充维生素。

另外，进考场前一定要少喝水！住：考前休息很重要。

好好休息并不意味着很早就要上床睡觉，根据以往考生的经验，太早上床反而容易失眠。

考前按照你平时习惯的时间上床休息就可以了，但最迟不要超过十点半。

用：出门考试之前，一定要检查文具包。

看看答题的工具是否准备齐全，应该带的证件是否都在，不要到了考场才想起来有什么工具没带，或者什么工具用着不顺手。

行：看考场的时候同学们要多留心，要仔细了解自己住的地方到考场可以坐哪些路线的公交车？有几种方式可以到达？大概要花多长时间？去考场的路上有没有修路堵车的情况？考试当天，应该保证至少提前20分钟到达考场。

Their contribution to the constant evolution of the English language should not be ignored.Ms Newstead put the changing nature of language down to social media where space is often small and messages are sent in a hurry. She told the Telegraph: “ I think because so many of our communications are by social media, there is a lot more sharing and words come to light a lot quicker than they used to.”The Collins list is put together by a panel of lexicographers and experts, who look at terms that are becoming increasingly used. There are around 4.5 billion words in the Collins Corpus, but between 10 and 12 are picked for the final list.2016|Collins ‘ Words of the YearBrexit: The withdrawal of the United Kingdom UnionDude food: Junk food considered particularly appealing to menHygge: A concept of creating a comfortable atmosphere thatpromotes well-beingJomo(joy of missing out): Pleasure gained when one decides to refuse a party invitation without any fear of missing the event.Mic drop: the act of pretending to drop a microphone after speakingSharenting: The habitual use of social media to share news and images of one’s childrenSnowflake generation: Young adults who are more likely to become angry than previous generationsThrow shade: To publicly show contempt(轻视)Trumpism: The policies advocated by the US politician Donald TrumpUberization : A business model where services are offered directly to customers usually by mobile technology51.

These factors contribute to words getting shorter except .A. limited space in social mediaB. the hurry to send textsC. the younger generationD. evolution of EnglishBScientists said they have found evidence of a giant planet far out in our solar system.In a statement, the California Institute of Technology(Caltech) said this planet travels a strange “highly elongated orbit in the distan t solar system”.The discovery was made by two researchers at Caltech; Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown. They used mathematicalmodeling and computer simulations (模拟)to find the planet.So far, there have not been any direct observations of the planet.“My jaw hit the floor,” said astronomer Mike Brown, the moment he realized there might be a ninth planet.The scientists said it would take this planet 10,000to 20,000 years just to make one full orbit around the sun. The new planet, called “Planet Nine” has a mass about 10 times the size of Earth.It is believed that the planet orbits, or travels, around the sun from a great distance. The planet Neptune’s average distance to the sun is about 4.5 billion kilometers. But “Planet Nine” could be 20 times farther away from the sun than that.While they did not get a picture of “Planet Nine” yet, the scientists say they are using the biggest and best telescopes on Earth to try to find it.Brown and Batygin reported their finding in The Astronomical Journal. They say that this new planet is so large that there should be no doubt that it is a true planet, once they confirm it.Robert Massey is with the Royal Astronomical Society in London. He told AFP that planets have been predicted before, and then were not found. But, he said the work of the these researchers is definitely worth following up. “It would be a really exciting thing to find. At the moment it’s simply a prediction(预测).”54. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph5 mean?A. He felt quite shockedB. He felt on the floorC. He made a public speechD. He went on observing55. What can we know about “Planet Nine” from the text?A. It could be the ninth planet discovered since ancient timesB. It could be about 10 times as large as the earthC. It could travel around the Earth on a special orbitD. Its distance to the sun could be about 90 billion kilometers56. What’s Robert’s attitude towards the discovery of “Planet Nine”?A. doubtfulB. unclearC. worriedD. supportive57. What’s the best title for the text?A. The discovery of the largest planetB. The prediction of a ninth planet in solar systemC. Attitudes to “Planet Ninth” in the solar systemD. Values of finding “Planet Ninth” in the solar systemCI was in the garden with Augie, My four-year-old grandson, watching the bees. “Bees make honey,” I said. After a pause, Augie replied, “ How do they make the honey?” There is nothing like a child’s question for exposing the limits of a grandmother’s wisdom.“Actually, Augie, I don’t know,” I said.“But, Grandma, you have your phone,” he said. For Augie, a smart phone is as natural as the bees, and holding one is almost equal to knowing.I Googled “How do bees make honey?” There were dozens of videos explaining it. Augie and I learned that worker bees produce an enzyme(酵素), which changes nectar(花蜜)into dextrose. then beat their wings to thicken the nectar into honey.“It’s kind of hard to see the bees.” I said.“Why don’t we watch it on the big computer?” Augie said.For the next hour, we sat inside, bee-surfing. There were a lot of beekeeper selfie videos, best of which was a BBC documentary about the “waggle dance,” the remarkable communication system that allows bees to give one another directions to theplaces where they’v e found nectar.Most of my own children was spent reading books, forgetting the world around me. Over time, reading controlled my brain, as large areas once dedicated to dealing with the “real” world adapted to dealing with the printed word. This didn’t li mit my development , but it didi leave me with some illusions(错觉)—my idea of romantic love surely came from novels.Many parents worry that “screen time” will harm children’s development, but recent research suggests that most of the common fears about children and screens are unfounded. (There is one exception: looking at screens that emit blue light before bed really does disturb sleep,in people of all ages.) The new guidelines emphasize that what matters is content and context, what children watch and with whom. Each child, after all, will have some hundred thousand of conscious experience before turning sixteen. Those hours can be like the wonderful ones that Augie and I spent together bee-watching, or they can be mindless—and that’s true whether those h ours are occupied by apps or TV or books or just by talk.New tools have always led to panic. Socrates thought that reading and writing would have disastrous effects on memory; the novel, the telegraph, the telephone, and the television were all declared to the End of Civilization, particularly in the hands of the young. Part of the reason may be that adult brains require a lot of focus and effort to learn something new, while children’s brains are designed to master new environments naturally. Advanced technologies always seem disturbing to the adults attempting to master them, and obvious to those children, like Augie.Like the bees, we live by the reports of others. Unlike the bees.We can invent new worlds., constructing them out of apps or TV or books. Sometimes those worlds confuse; at other times, they tell us something inspiring. When Augie’s father got home, Augie rushed to meet him in excitement. “Daddy, Daddy, look,” he said, reaching for the phone. “Do you know how bees make honey? I’ll show you....?58. What can be learnt from the dialogue between the author and Augie?A. The author felt embarrassed about not knowing the answer.B. Augie turned to the smartphone for answers instead of using his head.C. They gained a lot of information about bees on the Internet.D. Children are more creative and quicker in thinking than old people.59. The author mentions her childhood experience in Paragraph 8 in order to _______.A. introduce the theme of the passageB. compare her childhood with Augie’sC. Analyze the good effects of readingD. show great technological changes60. Which of the following statements might the author agree with?A. What children watch or read is harmless to their development.B. The new tools like apps harmed the progress of civilization.C. It’s worrying that apps and books may have bad information.D. It takes children less energy to learn new technologiesthan adults.61. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply?A. Humans communicate in the same way as bees.B. Humans can build up more form what they read.C. Humans depend on news reports for information.D. Apps or books open a confusing world to people.62. What does the author mainly want to say with this article?A. Technologies bring more confusion than inspiration to people.B. Screen time keeps the children from thinking independently.C. Screen time doesn’t necessarily harm children’s development.D. Technologies will open up new worlds to old people and children.第二卷非选择题(共46分)五、阅读文章，回答问题(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)You travel thousands of miles to experience new cultures. The peer-to-peer or sharing-economy(经济)movement makes it possible for travelers to live locally by staying in other people’s homes, driving their cars, eating in their kitchens and so on, seeing a new destination through their eyes.Why share? After the economic downturn, people developed new ways to make money by sharing resources they already had, such as house, vehicles and skills, while this movement has mobilized an army of micro-entrepreneurs(小型企业家)，it has also resulted in traveler benefits ranging from practice(savings and convenince) to enriching (authentic experience). It also supports local communities.This travel style has grows rapidly and become more accessible in recent years through the use of the Internet and social media, both of which help connect travelers with hosts and services.Share a houseThe style of staying in others’ private houses has exploded over the past few years, mainly thanks to Airbnb, an online community marketplace for homelowners and travelers that was started in 2008.Compared with booking a hotel,house-sharing can make a vacation more affordable and add convenience. You can save on food bills by not eating at a restaurant for every meal,and there are no early check-in or checkout rules,besides,you get to meet people,often friends of the exchange partner.Share a ride.Once you’ve booked stay in a stranger’s home, the next natural step into the peer-peer world is driving a stranger ear,which has appeal for travelers wanting to save money and get more personalized(个性化的) service when they hit the rode.Typically, car sharing involves renting cars for short periods of time, often by the hour. This helps lkeeo unnecessary cars off the road, making things a little easier on the environment. In recent years ,it has expanded to meet the longer-term needs of travelers, who can rent directly from car owners for a day ,making full use of underutilized(不常使用的) cars.Share a MealHouses and cars aren’t the only things up for sharing .People long for authenntic experiences through food. And plenty of new websites are making it easier to connect passionate cook ---and grandmothers ---with hungry travellerswho want to share home—cooked meals with locals in just about any destination around the world.This social dining sites---through which you call book meals or cooking classes in someone’s private kitchen---fill the need of travelers who have become dissatisfied with food available at tourist restaurants and want more memorable meals that reflect the local culture.六、单词拼写(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)根据句意及首字母或中文提示，完成或写出相应的英语单词。

Fill in each blankwith the word or phrase that best fits the context.Ask Siri if she’s a woman. Go ahead: try it.

But, man, do they ever sound a lot like women? ____42____, we think of them as ladies too. In Old Norse(古挪威语), Siri translates to “a beautiful woman who leads you to v ictory”. We assign female pronouns to them, and, in turn, they fold female turns of phrase into their robotic and occasionally silly answers to our requests.If we prize gender diversity(多样性) in other areas of daily life, why does our tech sound so____43____? The biggest reason for the female phone fixation rests in social science. “Research indicates there’s likely to be greater acceptance of female____44____,” says Karl MacDorman, a professor at Indiana University who specializes in human computer interaction. MacDorman and his team played clips of male and female voices to people of both genders, then asked them to identify which they____45____. The researchers also measured the way participants responded to the voices. In a 2011 paper, they reported that both women and men said female voices came across as warmer. ____46____, women even showed a subconscious preference for responding to females; men remained subconsciously neutral.Why the____47____? Stanford University communications professor Clifford Nass wrote that people tend to see female voices as helping them solve their problems by themselves, while they view male voices as authority figures who tell them the answers to their problems. We want____48____ to help us, but we also want to be the boss of it, so we are more likely to choose afemale interface(接口程序).This tendency suggests that companies will make a better impression on a ____49____ group of customers with a woman's voice. But not just any voice. It has to ____50____ a brand’s personality. For help with that, companies often turn to Greg Pal, vice president of marketing, strategy, and business development at Nuance Communications, which licenses its ____51____of more than 100 voices. Pal insists that some brands choose male speakers. He turned on his iPhone and pulled up the Domino's Pizza app, which has an assistant, Dom. He sounded like a high school English teacher--educated and helpful but not ____52____. That's about right for a brand attempting to ____53____ guys ordering pies before the big game.As voice technology improves, though, designers say diversity will too. Many devices already letyou ____54____ a voice interface. For example. Homer Simpson, a famous cartoon character can tell you where to take a left on our GPS device.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)This is the opening of a short story in a town in the United States by Alison Randall …When Frank and I stepped through the post office doors. there was a crowd gathered, looking at the new device on the wall with amazement like a crowd of wide-mouthed frogs. I had to get closer. and that was where being a girl that’s skinnier than a wire fence came in handy. Fortunately, Frank, my twin of eleven years, was just the same.“Come on.” I said, grabbing his hand, and we slid through the cracks between people until we spilled out in front.Finally I got a good look. It was fixed to the plaster(石灰板) next to the postmaster's window, the place of honour usually reserved for the Wanted posters. Beady-eyed Zedekiah Smith, the bank robber, still hung there, but even he had been pushed aside for something more important.A telephone. The first one in town.“How’s it work?” Noah Crawford called out. Noah’s the best fix-it man around, and I could tell he was dying to get his fingers on those shiny buttons.“Don’t rightly know,” answer the postmaster, and he pulled hard at his beard as if it might tell him. “I do know the sound of your voice moves along wires strung on poles. It’s sort of like the telegraph, only you hear words instead of dots and dashes.”“Ah,” the crow d whispered, and I felt my own mouth move along.I gazed at the shiny wood box and something happened inside me. Something--I can only guess--that might be like falling in love. The thought of talking into that box--of making my voice sail through wires in the sky--it took over my brain. I couldn't get it out.“Frank,” I whispered to my twin. “I have to use that telephone.”Five minutes later, Frank dragged me to Main Street, toward borne. “Liza--” he began, but I cut him off. We two thought so much alike, I had Frank’s questions answered before he even asked.56. People crowded in the post office because________.A. a new poster grabbed their attentionB. the postmaster was delivering a speechC. they were curious about the telephoneD. there was a wanted bank robber captured57. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Many people stared at the new device in open-mouthedamazement.B. The slight-figured twins managed to push to the front of the crowd.C. Even the best fix-it may in the town got no idea about the new device:D. The postmaster didn’t know anything about how the telephone worked.58. By “…it took over my brain. I couldn't get it out.”, we get a clear picture of the girl’s______.A. eagerness to use the telephoneB. fascination for the wood boxC. puzzlement over the strange soundD. determination to fly in the sky59. What is the passage mainly about?A. The twins’ frustrating experiences in the town.B. A special assembly called in the local post office.C. People’s reaction to the arrival of tile first telephone.D. A great celebration of the start of telephone service.(B)Welcome to the LUSH life!You can rest easy knowing each and every LUSH product is 100% cruelty-free.

He, however, suggests we view quitting differently.Quitting is like deciding to rearrange a room: you’ve grown comfortable with the status, and it can be hard to picture the end result or even see why change is necessary. And yet, there's the upsetting feeling that you’re no longer entirely satisfied with your current circumstances, perhaps even that you’ve stopped making progress. While it's not out of the question for feelings of regret to surface after a major refit, leaving a position, project or situation can reveal exciting possibilities, making you feel inspired and renewed.Quitting, often happens in situations where we're unhappy, fearful or have determined we have no other choice, factors that can have ill effects on our health. Perhaps you find your work unfulfilling, or you've jumped into a new relationship before you're ready--and, as a result, you're operating under intense pressure. “If stress is endu ring and not managed well, it can start to take a toll,” says Meek. According to the American Psychological Association, long-term, ongoing stress can increase the risk for high blood pressure and heart attack so walking away from whatever is causing it can deliver significant physical and emotional health benefits. “We often see a reduction in the stress hormone cortisol(应激激素皮质醇)”, which can lower blood pressure and may even decrease the heart rate,” says Dr Alex Lickerman, a GP and expert on developing mental adaptability.Leaving situations that fail to bring you joy can leave youwith sufficient time to explore where your heart is truly leading you. In a study that was published in 1999, then Harvard University professor Hermina Ibarra looked at how bankers tried different roles that required new skill sets--someone who spent a lot of time dealing with computers, for instance, was asked to take on personal interactions. Subjects(研究对象) were especially drawn to acting out a version of their future selves through ‘imitation strategies’ -- an approach they compared to ‘trying on different clothes.’ Mark Franklin, the president of CareerCycles, suggests a similar approach as a way to figure out what your true desires might be in your post-quitting life and fore see your future self. “Pretend to be a certain kind of person, or go and meet others who are doing what you want to do,” he says. “Try it on, see how it feels and decide if it's a good fit for you.” It may not feel like it at the time, but just moving on f roma situation that's not quite right can help you get back on track.63. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that quitting may brim us feelings of being both ________.A. guilty and ashamedB. stupid and enthusiasticC. troubled and hopefulD. inspired and determined64. The phrase “take a toll” (paragraph 3) can be best replaced by “________”.A. developmental adaptabilityB. bring about changesC. keep up the pressureD. have a bad effect65. An approach suggested by Mark Franklin similar to ‘trying on different clothes’ is for________.A. helping people find what truly suits them in careerB. telling capable employees from inadequate onesC. training employees to acquire different working skillsD. providing people with opportunities to have a role play66. It can be concluded from the passage that________.A. quitting is a track that only the timid will choose to followB. personal interaction can be a must for reducing emotional pressureC. mental adaptability can be improved by the stress hormone cortisolD. knowing when to stop is wise and may make dreams happenSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Scientists use indirect methods to discover exoplanets.B. Most exoplanets are very different from the ones in our solar system.C. As the star moves unsteadily, it changes the wavelength of the light we see.D. Astronomers have detected signals indicating the presence of a planet.E. However, we have developed the technology to prove their existence only in the last few decades.F. Direct detection of the visible light from giant planets in space is becoming increasingly possible.Exoplanets(外行星): The Hunt Is OnToday scientists believe that planets could outnumber the stars. For centuries, scientists and natural philosophers have proposed that stars in the night sky have planetary systems similar to our own solar system. The existence of extrasolar planets, or exoplanets, has long been discussed. 67 Although not the first exoplanet discovery. a planet near a sun-like star wasdiscovered by astronomers in 1995. This kicked off an era of exoplanet hunting, with thousands of discoveries and confirmations following in its wake.68 However, in 2015 NASA’s Kepler space telescope found its first Earth-sized planet in a “habitable” zone. This is the distance from a star where surface temperatures of a planet wouldn’t be too hot or too cold for liquid wa ter. So far, only a small slice of our galaxy, the Milky Way, has been explored. Even so, scientists have confirmed over 3,500 exoplanets, with more being added every day.To detect exoplanets, scientists use data from a variety of sources. Larne ground-based telescopes, earth-circling and sun-circling satellites all collect different types of information. Because exoplanets are so far away and very close to stars, it is very difficult to see them directly. 69 For example, when an exoplanet moves between its star and us, it causes a small drop in the star’s brightness. Measuring this drop is the transit(凌日) method of discovery. NASA’s Kepler space telescope has discovered many exoplanets this way.As a planet circles a star, it pulls on it and causes it to shake.70 Measuring these slight changes is the radial velocity(径向速度) method of discovering planets. It is one of the most productive methods for finding and confirming exoplanets.These are just two examples of the many methods scientists use in their hunt for exoplanets, hoping for more information and enhanced detail. As time progresses and technology improves, who knows what else we may find!IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60words. Use your own words as far as possible.HopeNothing in my life had prepared me for what I had to do. Choosing my words carefully, and fighting to stay calm, I told my 4-year-ofd daughter that her grandmother had suffered a stroke(中风), that she was unconscious, and that the doctors said she would probably never wake up. As she moved closer to me. Ameba looked at me, eyes bright, and said, “Maybe Grandma will be okay.” “Maybe she will,” I said, keeping back the tears. But I knew better. I was tying up to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, from our Florida home in the morning to say good-bye to my mom.The rest of that awful week, I joined my brother, and father sitting by my mother’s side in the hospital room. I held her hand and talked to her. I told her that we still needed her. I told her that it wasn’t time to leave yet. I told her how much I loved her. And I told her that her little granddaughter, Amelia, believed that she’d get better. The doctors, with all their years of trai ning and experience, offered no hope for recovery. The damage was simply too extensive.A couple of weeks later, an odd thing happened. Mom woke up! And then she persevered through a long and tough process of restoration to health. during which she had to learn to walk, read, and write all over again, and eventually returned home to Dad. The only one who wasn’t shocked was Amelia. The doctors couldn’t explain it. Amelia didn’t need to. Hope came as naturally to her as breathing.So why are we so afraid to h ope sometimes? Maybe it’s because over the years, life’s disappointments can turn us to disillusionment(理想破灭). How many times have you heardsomeone say: “Hope for the best, expect the worst”? That’s not really hope at all.Hope is being able to look at our world with all of the joy and wonder of a child.________ _______ _______ _______ _________ ________________ _______ _______ _______ _________ ________________ _______ _______ _______ _________ ________V.
