A
Teenage aviator Zara Rutherford has become the youngest woman to fly around the world solo (单独飞行).
The 19-year-old, who has dual British-Belgian nationality, landed at Kortrijk-Wevelgem Airport in western Belgium on Thursday, completing an epic 41-country journey spanning over 52,000 kilometers (32,300 miles), and broke two Guinness World Records in the process.
“I made it,” Rutherford, who received an overjoyed welcome on her arrival, told reporters.
Not only has she beaten the record held by American Shaesta Waiz, who was 30 when she flew around the globe unaccompanied in 2017, Rutherford also now holds the title for the first woman to circumnavigate the world in a microlight aircraft (微型飞机). She is also the first Belgian to fly around the world alone.
However, the teenager’s route to glory hasn’t been without its challenges. Rutherford departed on August 18, 2021, expecting to finish in about three months. But she was plagued by setbacks, including month-long delays in both Alaska and Russia due to “visa and weather issues,” pushing her schedule back eight weeks.
“I would say the hardest part was definitely flying over Siberia — it was extremely cold. It was minus 35 degrees Celsius on the ground,” Rutherford said during a press conference.
“If the engine were to switch off, I’d be hours away from rescue and I don’t know how long I could have survived for.”
“I was hoping to complete it by Christmas but I guess that’s not happening anymore,” Rutherford told reporters t in Seoul, South Korea after arriving from Vladivostok on December 13. “But it’s an adventure.”
While she’s flown to an array of destinations, such as Singapore, Egypt and Greece, along with Russia and South Korea, Rutherford has been unable to explore any of them on land due to Covid-19 restrictions.
The final leg of her journey was also hit with delays due to bad weather, which meant her completion date was moved back another week.
1. What has Rutherford achieved
A. Flying around the globe alone in 2017.
B. Breaking two Guinness World Records.
C. The youngest microlight aircraft pilot.
D. The first pilot to fly around the world solo.
2. What does the underlined word “circumnavigate” most probably mean
A. Air out. B. Pull off.
C. Fly around. D. Take on.
3. What does Rutherford’s words imply in paragraph 7
A. She could manage the engine. B. The situation was very severe then.
C. The engine was in very good condition. D. She could wait long enough to get rescue.
4. What is the text mainly about
A. Rutherford has beaten the world flying record.
B. A journey was hit by the Covid-19 restrictions.
C. Rutherford has flown to an array of destinations.
D. A teen becomes youngest woman to fly the world solo.

Humans have been living and working on the space station for over 20 years. Their meals are packaged, though sometimes astronauts receive fresh treats from resupply missions. The longer that packaged food is stored, the more it loses nutrients like vitamin C and vitamin K.
Astronauts have successfully grown 10 different crops on the space station since 2015 and had the chance to sample (品尝) each one. The International Space Station hosted a party for astronauts on Friday as they celebrated the harvest of the first chili peppers (辣椒) grown in space. The crew finally had a chance to taste the peppers after initially kicking off the plant experiment on the space station in July.
Plant Habitat-04 is one of the most complex plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory to date because peppers take much longer to grow than the previous experiment plants. After growing for four months, the peppers were harvested on Friday.
Peppers provide a great source of vitamin C, as well as other key nutrients. Pepper plants self-pollinate (自花授粉), so they are easy to grow, and they are a pick-and-eat crop that doesn’t have to be cooked. They are also safe to eat raw.
A side effect of life in zero gravity is that astronauts often lose some of their taste and smell, so spicy or well-seasoned foods are a favorite. Adding fresh greens or peppers to the menu allows astronauts to liven up their regular meals. But growing and tending to the plants can also produce other benefits.
Astronauts have described the joy from seeing — as well as smelling and caring for — leafy green plants on the space station that remind them of Earth.
“Growing colorful vegetables in space can have long-term benefits for physical and psychological health,” said Matt Romeyn, principal investigator for the experiment. “We are discovering that growing plants and vegetables with colors and smells helps to improve astronauts’ well-being.”
5. How is the food astronauts eat on the space station
A. Always fresh. B. Lack of nutrients.
C. Never tasty. D. Full of vitamins.
6 What makes Plant Habitat-04 one of the most complex plant experiments
A. The technology. B. Growing process.
C. The varieties of plants. D. Growing time required.
7. Which is the most probable reason for adding peppers to food for astronauts
A. Peppers are delicious. B. Peppers can improve memory.
C Peppers help prevent diseases. D. Peppers can restore appetite.
8. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Fun of Growing Chili Peppers in Space
B. The Agricultural Goal in the Space Mission
C. The First Chili Peppers Grown in Space
D. The Chili Peppers Used in the Space Mission
C
Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance. The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money.
At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.
Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.
Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
9. What is special about children learning financial management by experience
A. They learn more quickly.
B. They are not as likely to make mistakes.
C. Their mistakes won't matter so much.
D. They have plans made by their parents.
10. When the writer says some young children "will learn the hard way that..." in Para. 4, he means ________ .
A. they will know how hard it is to learn budget
B. they will have an easy time learning the lesson
C. what they will learn is absolutely true
D. their parents will teach them a hard lesson
11. Judging from the article, it is all right if a couple give their son an allowance ________ .
A. regularly twice every month
B. whenever he has run out of money
C. telling him to ask for permission before spending
D. without telling him what to spend on
12. The writer would agree to encourage the kids to ________ to deal with a tight budget.
A. borrow money from others B. ask their parents for more money
C. get paid for their household routines D. earn money by extra work

Jenny was a nice girl, but she had one shortcoming. She was often late for school because she had to look after her sick mother, who lay in bed all through the year. The family's cooking and washing went to the young girl. Of course this brought a little inconvenience to Jenny's schooling.
One morning when Jenny came in late again, Mr. Black, her class teacher, got very angry. “I will ask your father to my office if you aren’t here on time tomorrow,” he shouted at her. Jenny didn’t want him to do so. On the one hand her parents were very strict with her; on the other hand his father was working on the farm these days, for it was autumn, when all the crops had to be harvested. She didn’t want to waste her father's precious time to listen to her teacher's roar in front of all the other teachers.
The next day, Jenny got up early. To save time, she wolfed her breakfast. When the bell rang, she was waiting in her seat quietly, especially waiting for Mr. Black. The door opened, but an unfamiliar face appeared. “I’m Miss Green. Mr. Black is ill, so I will take his class instead today.” How disappointed Jenny was!
The next morning Jenny got up even earlier. To avoid unhappy things, she went to school without breakfast. Just before she got to the school gate, she stopped: a wallet was lying on the ground!
She picked it up with hesitation. “Whose is this ” she wondered.
As she stood there thinking, she heard the first bell. “What shall I do ” she asked herself. “I will turn it in first,” she decided quickly and so she did.
When she hurried to the classroom, Mr. Black had already begun his class.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Jenny, you really make me disappointed!” Mr Black shouted as soon as he saw her.

At this moment the headmaster came in hurriedly. “Your wallet, Mr Black.” he said.

细节理解题。根据第二段“The 19-year-old, who has dual British-Belgian nationality, landed at Kortrijk-Wevelgem Airport in western Belgium on Thursday, completing an epic 41-country journey spanning over 52,000 kilometers (32,300 miles), and broke two Guinness World Records in the process.(这位拥有英国和比利时双重国籍的19岁少年，周四在比利时西部的Kortrijk-Wevelgem机场降落，完成了一次跨越52,000公里（32,300英里）的41国之旅，并在此过程中打破了两个吉尼斯世界纪录。)”可知，Rutherford打破了两项吉尼斯世界纪录。故选B。
【2题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段的“She is also the first Belgian to fly around the world alone.(她也是第一个独自飞行环游世界的比利时人。)”可知“Rutherford是第一个独自环游世界的比利时人”，因此划线词circumnavigate意为“环球飞行”，和fly around意思相近，故选C。

Humans have been living and working on the space station for over 20 years. Their meals are packaged, though sometimes astronauts receive fresh treats from resupply missions. The longer that packaged food is stored, the more it loses nutrients like vitamin C and vitamin K.
Astronauts have successfully grown 10 different crops on the space station since 2015 and had the chance to sample (品尝) each one. The International Space Station hosted a party for astronauts on Friday as they celebrated the harvest of the first chili peppers (辣椒) grown in space. The crew finally had a chance to taste the peppers after initially kicking off the plant experiment on the space station in July.
Plant Habitat-04 is one of the most complex plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory to date because peppers take much longer to grow than the previous experiment plants. After growing for four months, the peppers were harvested on Friday.
Peppers provide a great source of vitamin C, as well as other key nutrients. Pepper plants self-pollinate (自花授粉), so they are easy to grow, and they are a pick-and-eat crop that doesn’t have to be cooked. They are also safe to eat raw.
A side effect of life in zero gravity is that astronauts often lose some of their taste and smell, so spicy or well-seasoned foods are a favorite. Adding fresh greens or peppers to the menu allows astronauts to liven up their regular meals. But growing and tending to the plants can also produce other benefits.
Astronauts have described the joy from seeing — as well as smelling and caring for — leafy green plants on the space station that remind them of Earth.
“Growing colorful vegetables in space can have long-term benefits for physical and psychological health,” said Matt Romeyn, principal investigator for the experiment. “We are discovering that growing plants and vegetables with colors and smells helps to improve astronauts’ well-being.”
5. How is the food astronauts eat on the space station
A. Always fresh. B. Lack of nutrients.
C. Never tasty. D. Full of vitamins.
6. What makes Plant Habitat-04 one of the most complex plant experiments
A. The technology. B. Growing process.
C. The varieties of plants. D. Growing time required.
7. Which is the most probable reason for adding peppers to food for astronauts
A. Peppers are delicious. B. Peppers can improve memory.
C. Peppers help prevent diseases. D. Peppers can restore appetite.
8. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. The Fun of Growing Chili Peppers in Space
B. The Agricultural Goal in the Space Mission
C. The First Chili Peppers Grown in Space
D. The Chili Peppers Used in the Space Mission
【答案】5. B 6. D 7. D 8. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了宇航员们在国际空间站首次种植辣椒的实验的相关情况。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“The longer that packaged food is stored, the more it loses nutrients like vitamin C and vitamin K.(包装食品储存的时间越长，失去的维生素C和维生素K等营养物质就越多)”可知，包装食品放得时间越长，它就损失越多营养。因此可推知，太空站宇航员吃的食物缺少营养。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Plant Habitat-04 is one of the most complex plant experiments on the orbiting laboratory to date because peppers take much longer to grow than the previous experiment plants.(Plant Habitat-04是迄今为止轨道实验室中最复杂的植物实验之一，因为辣椒的生长时间比之前的实验植物长得多)”可知，Plant Habitat-04是最为复杂的植物实验之一，是因为辣椒的生长周期比其他之前做过实验的植物长。故选D项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段第一、二句“A side effect of life in zero gravity is that astronauts often lose some of their taste and smell, so spicy or well-seasoned foods are a favorite. Adding fresh greens or peppers to the menu allows astronauts to liven up their regular meals.(在零重力环境下生活的一个副作用是宇航员经常会失去一些味觉和嗅觉，所以刺激性或调料丰富的食物是他们的最爱。在菜单中加入新鲜的蔬菜或辣椒可以让宇航员的日常饮食更有活力)”可知，零重力环境的一个副作用是宇航员们经常失去一部分味觉和嗅觉，把辣椒添加到食物中可以让宇航员恢复食欲。故选D项。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“The International Space Station hosted a party for astronauts on Friday as they celebrated the harvest of the first chili peppers (辣椒) grown in space.(周五，国际空间站为宇航员举办了一场派对，庆祝第一批太空辣椒的收获)”可知，文章主要介绍了宇航员们在国际空间站首次进行种植辣椒实验的相关情况。C项“第一次在太空种植辣椒”符合文章主旨，适合作本文的标题。故选C项。
C
Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance. The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money.
At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.
Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.
Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
9. What is special about children learning financial management by experience
A. They learn more quickly.
B. They are not as likely to make mistakes.
C. Their mistakes won't matter so much.
D. They have plans made by their parents.
10. When the writer says some young children "will learn the hard way that..." in Para. 4, he means ________ .
A. they will know how hard it is to learn budget
B. they will have an easy time learning the lesson
C. what they will learn is absolutely true
D. their parents will teach them a hard lesson
11. Judging from the article, it is all right if a couple give their son an allowance ________ .
A. regularly twice every month
B. whenever he has run out of money
C. telling him to ask for permission before spending
D. without telling him what to spend on
12. The writer would agree to encourage the kids to ________ to deal with a tight budget.
A. borrow money from others B. ask their parents for more money
C. get paid for their household routines D. earn money by extra work
【答案】9. C 10. A 11. A 12. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文，作者就家长该如何合理分发零花钱而帮助孩子建立理财意识提出了自己的观点。
【详解】1.细节理解题。由文章第一段最后一句“The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.”（这样做的目的是让孩子们在犯财务错误代价不高的年纪从经验中学习。）可知，通过经验让孩子学习理财的特殊性在于，在犯财务错误代价不高的年纪中犯的错误不会太重要。故选C项。
2.句意猜测题。由第四段关键句“At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget.”（首先，年幼的孩子可能在收到零用钱后不久就花光了。如果他们这样做了，他们就会明白，花费必须在预算之内。）可知，如果开始时孩子们很快花完了补助，而父母要到下一次才能给他们零花钱，他们的学习理财的日子肯定很难熬了。因此推断作者的意思是说小孩子们将会知道学习理财是多么困难。故选A项。
3.推理判断题。由第二段关键句“The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.”（每个家庭父母给孩子的零花钱数额各不相同。时机是另一个需要考虑的因素。有些孩子每周得到零用钱。其他人每月得到零用钱。）可知，选项A中的父母规律性每个月给两次零花钱，符合作者的观点。故选A项。
4.推理判断题。由倒数第二段中关键句“Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful.It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. ”（然而，付钱让孩子在家里做额外的工作可能是有用的。它甚至可以提供业务该如何进行的理解。）可推断，当补助预算吃紧时，作者赞成孩子通过干些额外的活的方式来赚些钱。故选D项。

60. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jenny was a nice girl, but she had one shortcoming. She was often late for school because she had to look after her sick mother, who lay in bed all through the year. The family's cooking and washing went to the young girl. Of course this brought a little inconvenience to Jenny's schooling.
One morning when Jenny came in late again, Mr. Black, her class teacher, got very angry. “I will ask your father to my office if you aren’t here on time tomorrow,” he shouted at her. Jenny didn’t want him to do so. On the one hand her parents were very strict with her; on the other hand his father was working on the farm these days, for it was autumn, when all the crops had to be harvested. She didn’t want to waste her father's precious time to listen to her teacher's roar in front of all the other teachers.
The next day, Jenny got up early. To save time, she wolfed her breakfast. When the bell rang, she was waiting in her seat quietly, especially waiting for Mr. Black. The door opened, but an unfamiliar face appeared. “I’m Miss Green. Mr. Black is ill, so I will take his class instead today.” How disappointed Jenny was!
The next morning Jenny got up even earlier. To avoid unhappy things, she went to school without breakfast. Just before she got to the school gate, she stopped: a wallet was lying on the ground!
She picked it up with hesitation. “Whose is this ” she wondered.
As she stood there thinking, she heard the first bell. “What shall I do ” she asked herself. “I will turn it in first,” she decided quickly and so she did.
When she hurried to the classroom, Mr. Black had already begun his class.

Paragraph 1:
“Jenny, you really make me disappointed!” Mr Black shouted as soon as he saw her. Jenny lowered her head with fear, saying “I’m sorry, Sir. I didn’t mean to, but there was something happened on the way.” Mr Black, who clearly thought Jenny was lying, stopped her. “Come to my office after class and go back to your seat now.” Then he went on with his lesson. Jenny was fidgeting in class. The bell finally rang. After a struggle, Jenny went to the principal’s office first, giving him the wallet and explaining, and then she ran quickly to the office to find Mr Black. There was no doubt that he felt angry again.
Paragraph 2:
At this moment the headmaster came in hurriedly. “Your wallet, Mr Black.” he said. When he saw Jenny, he said happily, “Oh, it was this little girl who found your wallet.” Hearing this, Mr Black felt a bit surprised. He soon recovered his spirit and thanked Jenny. Meanwhile, he had a better understanding of Jenny’s family. He thought he would try his best to help this girl.
