“Although I’m surrounded by nature, I am not far away from city,” Nathan said, a foreign reporter of China Daily.
With a planned area of 11. 5 square kilometers, Xixi National Wetland Park in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province is China’s first national Wetland Park. Xixi is regarded as the “green lung of the city” for its rich ecological resources and wonderful natural scenery.
Hangzhou launched the Xixi wetland water environment management project in April. The waste water systems and sluice-pumping stations in the wetland will be more automatically (自动地) controlled as the project progresses and the overall water quality will also be improved, said Liu Xiang, deputy director of the ecological culture research center at the wetland park.
In addition to water quality improvement, Xixi has introduced more than 200 species of native and endangered plants to increase biodiversity.
The latest data shows that Xixi is home to four kinds of national first-class protected animals, including oriental stocks, which are known as “national treasure bird”. It also has three plant species under national first-class protection and six plant species under national second-class protection.
Fishing, picking and folk activities have gained great popularity among tourists in Xixi. Farmers from surrounding areas also earned extra income by selling handicrafts (手工艺品) and providing catering services.
8. According to Nathan, what do we know about Xixi
A. It’s a place where you can see all the natural creatures.
B. It’s a place which everyone in Hangzhou is fond of.
C. It’s a place where urban people can easily get close to nature.
D. It’s a place where animals lead a comfortable and happy life.
9. What makes Xixi the “green lung of the city”
A. Its abundant natural resources and pleasant environment.
B. Its economic benefits and beautiful scenery.
C. Its various species and rich mineral resources.
D. Its great popularity and ecological attractions.
10. What does the underlined word “biodiversity” in paragraph 4 mean
A. biological safety. B. biological variety
C. biological benefit D. biological evolution
11. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A. Xixi National Wetland Park is valued for its great importance to precious species.
B. People can only see four kinds of protected animals and nine plant species in Xixi.
C. Folk activities like fishing and picking have enjoyed great popularity in Xixi.
D. People who want to make their fortune can sell handicrafts and food in Xixi.

Exploring unmapped territory on the moon could soon be as easy as slipping on a backpack. NAS researchers and their partners have developed a high-tech pack to aid explorers in the most remote wilderness imaginable: the airless wastes at the South Pole of the Moon.
The pack, dubbed the Kinematic Navigation and Cartography Knapsack (KNaCK), is a remote-sensing mapping system. Shaped like a hiker’s backpack, it makes use of an innovative type of lidar (激光雷达) called frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) lidar to provide Doppler velocity and range for millions of measurement points per second. These measurement points instantly create a real-time navigation system, delivering to the explorer a 3D high-resolution map of the surrounding area.
“As human beings, we tend to locate ourselves based on landmarks—a specific building, a bunch of trees. Those things don’t exist on the Moon. With KNaCK continuously showing in real time how far they’ve gone and how far is left to go to reach their destination, explorers can cross the surface boldly without having to worry about their safety. They can even mark specific sites where they found some unique mineral or rock formation, so others can easily return for further study,” said Dr. MichaelZanetti, who leads the KNaCK project at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
That’s vital for astronauts on a clock, their exploration limited by the oxygen supply in their suits. KNaCK’s ultra-high-resolution precision—an order of magnitude greater than conventional lunar topography map(地形图)and elevation models makes it a vital resource for conducting science and mission operations 238,900 miles away from mission control, Zanetti said.
Currently, the backpack prototype (原型) weighs about 40 pounds. When it comes to the work to be done next, Zanetti said, Taking advantage of the latest advancements in lidar technology from Aeva, we will make our next-generation device about the size of a soda can, and harden the sensitive electronics against the punishing effects of microgravity and solar radiation.” He looks forward to mounting it on a rover (探测器) or on the side of an astronaut’s helmet, which should leave plenty of room in future lunar mountaineers’ all-purpose backpacks.
12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. The working principle of KNaCK. B. The problems with the FMCW lidar.
C. The possibility of exploring the moon. D. Explorers’ expectations for the mapping system.
13. The significance of explorers’ marking specific sites lies in ________.
A. setting a good example to others B. providing convenience for others
C. warning others of possible dangers D. avoiding getting lost in strange places
14. What will the KNaCK team do next
A. Produce all-purpose backpacks. B. Reduce the size of the backpack.
C. Seek help from the government. D. Make the hardware more sensitive.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The achievements of moon exploration. B. The challenges faced by moon explorers.
C. A new device for future moon explorers. D. A new way to conduct research on the moon.

Exploring unmapped territory on the moon could soon be as easy as slipping on a backpack. NAS researchers and their partners have developed a high-tech pack to aid explorers in the most remote wilderness imaginable: the airless wastes at the South Pole of the Moon.
The pack, dubbed the Kinematic Navigation and Cartography Knapsack (KNaCK), is a remote-sensing mapping system. Shaped like a hiker’s backpack, it makes use of an innovative type of lidar (激光雷达) called frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) lidar to provide Doppler velocity and range for millions of measurement points per second. These measurement points instantly create a real-time navigation system, delivering to the explorer a 3D high-resolution map of the surrounding area.
“As human beings, we tend to locate ourselves based on landmarks—a specific building, a bunch of trees. Those things don’t exist on the Moon. With KNaCK continuously showing in real time how far they’ve gone and how far is left to go to reach their destination, explorers can cross the surface boldly without having to worry about their safety. They can even mark specific sites where they found some unique mineral or rock formation, so others can easily return for further study,” said Dr. MichaelZanetti, who leads the KNaCK project at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
That’s vital for astronauts on a clock, their exploration limited by the oxygen supply in their suits. KNaCK’s ultra-high-resolution precision—an order of magnitude greater than conventional lunar topography map(地形图)and elevation models makes it a vital resource for conducting science and mission operations 238,900 miles away from mission control, Zanetti said.
Currently, the backpack prototype (原型) weighs about 40 pounds. When it comes to the work to be done next, Zanetti said, Taking advantage of the latest advancements in lidar technology from Aeva, we will make our next-generation device about the size of a soda can, and harden the sensitive electronics against the punishing effects of microgravity and solar radiation.” He looks forward to mounting it on a rover (探测器) or on the side of an astronaut’s helmet, which should leave plenty of room in future lunar mountaineers’ all-purpose backpacks.
12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A. The working principle of KNaCK. B. The problems with the FMCW lidar.
C. The possibility of exploring the moon. D. Explorers’ expectations for the mapping system.
13. The significance of explorers’ marking specific sites lies in ________.
A. setting a good example to others B. providing convenience for others
C. warning others of possible dangers D. avoiding getting lost in strange places
14. What will the KNaCK team do next
A. Produce all-purpose backpacks. B. Reduce the size of the backpack.
C. Seek help from the government. D. Make the hardware more sensitive.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The achievements of moon exploration. B. The challenges faced by moon explorers.
C. A new device for future moon explorers. D. A new way to conduct research on the moon.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】

考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：他们并不是唯一——全球每年消费超过1000亿份方便面，使其成为世界上最成功的工业食品之一。分析句子可知，空处为句子的谓语，此处陈述客观事实，时态应用一般现在时，主语over 100 billion servings of instant noodles和consume“消费”之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，且主语是复数，be动词应用are。故填are consumed。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意：简单来说，生产和购买它们都很便宜，这正是它们的创造者想要的。分析句子可知，空处修饰空前的Put，应用副词simply，意为“简单地”，put simply是固定短语，意为“简单来说，简而言之”。故填simply。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：第二次世界大战刚结束，日本企业家安藤茂夫花了大约一年的时间完善了这个配方。spend... (in) doing sth.“花……做某事”是固定短语，空处应用perfect的动名词形式作宾语。故填perfecting。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他的创新立即受到欢迎，在日本战后的经济崛起中发挥了作用。分析句子可知，句子主干成分完整，空处表示随着谓语行为自然发生的结果，作结果状语，应用play的现在分词形式。故填playing。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：但日本人并不是唯一一个热衷于方便面的民族。be alone in (doing) sth.是固定短语，意为“唯一……”，空处应用介词in构成该短语。故填in。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：方便面在国外受欢迎的部分原因是它们很容易适应当地的口味。根据“how easy they are”可推知，句中使用了固定句型“be adj. to do sth.”，主语they指代方便面，此处描述方便面的特性，空处应用adapt的不定式形式，主动形式表示被动意义。故填to adapt。
【42题详解】
考查固定句型。句意：而且，消费者似乎越来越期待创新。根据“seems that”可推知，此处为固定句型it seems that…，意为“似乎……”。故填it。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：它们的流行是以环境为代价的——它们是用棕榈油制成的，导致森林砍伐，它们的包装是塑料的。分析句子可知，空处作修饰cost的定语，应用形容词environmental，意为“环境的”。故填environmental。
【44题详解】
考查让步状语从句。句意：虽然方便面是一种热的、美味的、饱腹的食物，但它没有太多的营养价值，而且盐和脂肪含量很高。分析句子可知，空处应用从属连词连接两个句子，上下文是转折让步关系，因此应用while、although或though引导让步状语从句。故填while/although/though。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意：然而，方便面无疑是紧急或极端情况下的救星。分析句子可知，空处连接前后两个修饰situations的定语emergency和extreme，两者之间是选择关系，应用表示“或，或者”的并列连词or。故填or。

A Bowl of Noodles
Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of he scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not even possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ”
“Oh, yes... but I don’t have money on me...” she replied.
“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man,
“Come in.”
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. Jenny thanked the man and started to gobblle (狼吞虎咽) up the delicious food...then cried silently.
“What is it ” asked the man kindly.
“Nothing, actually I was moved by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears, “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so mean and cruel!”
Hearing the words, the seller smiled “Girl, do you really think so I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times that she has cooked for you Have you expressed your thanks to her ”
Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”
On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

She remembered her rudeness to her mother. Realizing that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her, she felt rather ashamed, and tears began to roll down her cheeks.
Paragraph 2:
A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” she said, tired and relieved. Jenny couldn’t help throwing herself into her mother’s arms. “Mum, I’m so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” She expressed her sincere apology and great gratitude. Hearing this, her mother smiled patting her back gently.
