In the Hollywood movie The Martian, actor Matt Damon plays an astronaut who grows food on Mars (火星) to survive alone on the red planet.
After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars. In the case study, students had to imagine they were mining on Mars and decide how to feed themselves there before starting on the journey. They got advice from Allen and Joyner on how to select crops and take the challenges of growing crops over long periods on Mars. Students used a scoring system to select three foods to plant on Mars.
Allen found the results impressive: among 30 students, “no two people have ever gotten the same answer”, he said.
Human travelers to Mars will likely have to make use of resources on the planet rather than take everything they need with them on a spaceship. This means farming their own food on another planet, one that has a very different ecosystem (生态系统) from Earth’s.
One challenge for those who would like to live on Mars is the fact that there can be no farming tools. Like real astronauts, students taking part in the study cannot take farming tools with them. As Joyner put it to his student astronauts, “You are starting with nothing.” Besides, students also have to deal with a very limited choice of diet. “If you had to eat a single food for the rest of your life, could you do it ” Joyner asked.
But Allen believes the case study is about more than farming and eating on the Red Planet. “I’m not teaching about growing food on Mars,” Allen said, “I’m teaching about living with choices. I’m teaching about problem solving.”
31. What made Michael Allen and Helen Joyner carry out the case study
A. A trip. B. A book. C. A movie. D. A lecture.
32. In the case study, students have to ______.
A. start with everything B. try different tools
C. watch the movie D. select three foods
33. What might be the challenge for people living on Mars
A. They have a limited choice of diet. B. They have a lot of farming tools.
C. They have to take part in the study. D. They have to select crops on Mars.
34. Michael Allen thinks that the case study teaches the students ______.
A. how to look for foods on Mars B. to know more about Earth
C. how to solve problems D. to learn about gardening
35. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. a research on how to farm on Mars B. a Hollywood movie The Martian
C. how to survive alone on Earth D. how to design a scoring system

第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，根据短文内容用英语回答问题。
I was sitting in a beginner calligraphy (书法) class when a student asked the teacher, “What do I need to become a professional calligrapher ” The answer, to our surprise, was pen and paper. “The materials are no different from those of a beginner calligrapher,” the teacher explained, “The difference between a beginner and a professional calligrapher is not in the tools they use, but in the time and efforts they put into learning and practising.”
The same goes for any professional at their skill. When we look up to the expert, we think that increasing the quality of materials or having excellent resources is what makes them great. Actually, the time they spend learning something new and achieving their goals is more important. However, we tend to look for a shortcut, a direct way to achieve the goal.
My current goal is to become an independent filmmaker. What would it take What would I need to make the best movies I too, wanted the shortcut. After watching online videos about filmmaking, I realized I had all that I needed to achieve my goal. It just took time and efforts to succeed.
We easily get caught in wasting time looking for a shortcut. In the end, we lose energy and motivation (动机). We do things to go fast rather than go far. We focus on the end result instead of allowing ourselves to enjoy the journey. Go for it. Reach farther to become your best self.
36. What tools does one need to become a calligrapher

点睛：本题考查时态。分析选项可以知道，4个选项都用了被动语态，本题考查的其实是不同的时态。选项A是过去时；选项B是一般现在时的被动；选项C是现在进行时；选项D是现在完成时。再结合语境进行分析，最终判断出最佳答案。

In the Hollywood movie The Martian, actor Matt Damon plays an astronaut who grows food on Mars (火星) to survive alone on the red planet.
After seeing the movie, Washington State University physicist Michael Allen and University of Idaho food scientist Helen Joyner decided to carry out a case study helping students figure out how to farm on Mars. In the case study, students had to imagine they were mining on Mars and decide how to feed themselves there before starting on the journey. They got advice from Allen and Joyner on how to select crops and take the challenges of growing crops over long periods on Mars. Students used a scoring system to select three foods to plant on Mars.
Allen found the results impressive: among 30 students, “no two people have ever gotten the same answer”, he said.
Human travelers to Mars will likely have to make use of resources on the planet rather than take everything they need with them on a spaceship. This means farming their own food on another planet, one that has a very different ecosystem (生态系统) from Earth’s.
One challenge for those who would like to live on Mars is the fact that there can be no farming tools. Like real astronauts, students taking part in the study cannot take farming tools with them. As Joyner put it to his student astronauts, “You are starting with nothing.” Besides, students also have to deal with a very limited choice of diet. “If you had to eat a single food for the rest of your life, could you do it ” Joyner asked.
But Allen believes the case study is about more than farming and eating on the Red Planet. “I’m not teaching about growing food on Mars,” Allen said, “I’m teaching about living with choices. I’m teaching about problem solving.”
31. What made Michael Allen and Helen Joyner carry out the case study
A. A trip. B. A book. C. A movie. D. A lecture.
32. In the case study, students have to ______.
A. start with everything B. try different tools
C. watch the movie D. select three foods
33. What might be the challenge for people living on Mars
A. They have a limited choice of diet. B. They have a lot of farming tools.
C. They have to take part in the study. D. They have to select crops on Mars.
34. Michael Allen thinks that the case study teaches the students ______.
A. how to look for foods on Mars B. to know more about Earth
C. how to solve problems D. to learn about gardening
35. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. a research on how to farm on Mars B. a Hollywood movie The Martian
C. how to survive alone on Earth D. how to design a scoring system
【答案】31. C 32. D 33. A 34. C 35. A

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容用英语回答问题。
I was sitting in a beginner calligraphy (书法) class when a student asked the teacher, “What do I need to become a professional calligrapher ” The answer, to our surprise, was pen and paper. “The materials are no different from those of a beginner calligrapher,” the teacher explained, “The difference between a beginner and a professional calligrapher is not in the tools they use, but in the time and efforts they put into learning and practising.”
The same goes for any professional at their skill. When we look up to the expert we think that increasing the quality of materials or having excellent resources is what makes them great. Actually, the time they spend learning something new and achieving their goals is more important. However, we tend to look for a shortcut, a direct way to achieve the goal.
My current goal is to become an independent filmmaker. What would it take What would I need to make the best movies I too, wanted the shortcut. After watching online videos about filmmaking, I realized I had all that I needed to achieve my goal. It just took time and efforts to succeed.
We easily get caught in wasting time looking for a shortcut. In the end, we lose energy and motivation (动机). We do things to go fast rather than go far. We focus on the end result instead of allowing ourselves to enjoy the journey. Go for it. Reach farther to become your best self.

【36题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中““What do I need to become a professional calligrapher ” The answer, to our surprise, was pen and paper. (“我需要什么才能成为一名职业书法家？”令我们惊讶的是，答案竟然是笔和纸。)”可知，成为一名书法家需要笔和纸。故填Pen and paper.。
【37题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线单词所在句子“However, we tend to look for a shortcut, a direct way to achieve the goal.(然而，我们倾向于寻找一条shortcut，一条达到目标的直接途径。)”可推知，后文“a direct way to achieve the goal”是对名词shortcut解释说明，故shortcut指的是“一条达到目标的直接途径”，故填A direct way to achieve the goal.。

It just took time and efforts to succeed.(我意识到我已经拥有了实现目标所需要的一切，只是需要时间和努力才能成功。)”可知，文章主要说明了成功需要花费时间和精力，故填It is about success taking time and efforts.。
