Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025湖北十堰月考)
Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass was introduced. And now, we have satnav(卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user's location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smartphone, to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia's Global Navigation Satellite System, the European Union's Galileo and China's own satellite navigation system, BeiDou.
On October 18, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which is the first domestically(国内地) produced jet equipped with the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad, according to Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, Ltd.
Since its introduction in 2000, the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System has been increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming.
When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support BeiDou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike.
Farmers can use BeiDou-enabled tractors to plow(犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with BeiDou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. BeiDou's farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China.
With its many uses, the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative. “As BeiDou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics(物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, Secretary General of the GNSS & LBS Association of China. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.”
1.What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs
A.To compare some modern satnav systems.
B.To describe the benefits of satnav systems.
C.To tell us how satnav systems were created.
D.To introduce some satnav systems and their functions.
2.What can we know about the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System according to the article
A.It was used successfully in a new jet plane.
B.It was introduced to China on October, 2017.
C.It is more powerful than other satnav systems.
D.It wasn't used in our everyday life until recently.
3.According to the article, what is the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System already widely used for
A.Plowing the soil and sowing seeds.
B.Improving the efficiency of the network.
C.Producing more smart locks for shared bikes.
D.Navigating ships across oceans to European countries.
4.What is Miao Qianjun's attitude toward the future of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System
A.Casual. B.Worried. C.Positive. D.Indifferent.
Ⅱ.七选五
(2024江苏泰州调研)
It sounds like something from science fiction—a space journey into the vast expanse of space, heading towards Mars. While we're not quite ready to put a person on the land, the question we ask today is: 1
The space race saw the USA and the USSR compete to achieve the first in spaceflight. The USSR launched Sputnik 1, an artificial satellite, before anyone else. 2 Now it appears that Mars is the heaven body of desire. While the reputation and bragging(吹嘘) rights to be the first nation to touch down are obvious draws, there are other reasons we want to get there.
3 You only have to look at the fossilized remains of the dinosaurs to see the benefit of finding another habitable planet. While Mars doesn't have the right conditions to call it home just yet, there's always the concept of terraforming(地球化)—changing the environment of a planet to meet our needs.
However, not everyone agrees. 4 He has said the concept of changing habitability of another planet because of the damage we have done to Earth makes no sense when we can simply terraform Earth.
It seems the main reason is the search for extraterrestrial(地球外的) life. 5 But now seemingly dead, the potential fossils could answer questions about our own evolution and that of our planet. One theory is that bacterial life on our planet didn't start here, but was transferred via asteroids(小行星) from Mars.
A.And the US landed on the Moon first.
B.One of these could be the survival of our species.
C.The leading astrophysicist Neil Tyson is one of them.
D.Why are so many countries interested in going to Mars
E.It has been believed that, at one time, Mars was filled with life.
F.Surely inspiring a new generation to visit the stars is reason enough.
G.Can landing on Mars inspire more people to become interested in science

长难句
译文:他说过,当我们可以轻易地改造地球时,我们因对地球造成了破坏而去改变另一个星球的可居住性这种概念没有意义。
1.D 过渡句。根据上文“While we're not quite ready to put a person on the land, the question we ask today is”可知,本空应该是一个与登陆火星有关的疑问句;再结合第二段第一句“The space race saw the USA and the USSR compete to achieve the first in spaceflight.”可知,下文提到了美国和苏联之间的太空竞赛。D项“为什么这么多国家对去火星感兴趣 ”承上启下,符合语境。故选D。
2.A 细节句。根据本段第一句“The space race saw the USA and the USSR compete to achieve the first in spaceflight.”可知,本段主要讲美国和苏联之间的太空竞赛。第二句介绍苏联先于其他国家发射了人造卫星“旅伴一号”,那么设空处就应该介绍美国的成就。A项“美国第一个登陆月球。”符合语境。故选A。
3.B 主旨句。设空处位于段首,应是本段的主旨句。下文“You only have to look at the fossilized remains of the dinosaurs to see the benefit of finding another habitable planet.”表明人类想登陆火星的原因与人类的生存有关,B项“其中之一可能是人类的生存。”能概括本段主旨,符合语境。故选B。
4.C 过渡句。根据上文“However, not everyone agrees.”和下文“He has said the concept of changing habitability of another planet...”可知,设空处应该与反对者有关,C项“一流的天体物理学家尼尔·泰森就是其中之一。”点明反对者的身份,承上启下,其中的Neil Tyson是下文He所指代的对象。故选C。
5.E 细节句。下文“But now seemingly dead, the potential fossils could answer questions about our own evolution and that of our planet.”提到火星上的生命现在似乎已经死亡,E项“人们相信,火星上曾经充满了生命。”与下文构成转折关系,符合语境。故选E。
Ⅲ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了在哥伦比亚长大的Diana Trujillo克服重重困难成了美国国家航空与航天局(NASA)的一名工程师,带领团队负责火星探测器的机械臂的故事。

5.willing adj.愿意的;乐意的
【熟词生义】 hat 熟义:n.帽子 生义:n.职位;角色
【差距词汇】 1.rover n.探测器;天体登陆器;飞行器 2.acquainted adj.熟悉的;了解的
1.C 根据上文“For a little girl...a faraway planet.”和下文“Diana Trujillo has made it”可知,对于Diana Trujillo这样的女性来说,在NASA从事科学事业似乎是遥不可及的事情,但她却做到了,上下文之间构成转折关系。故选C。
2.B 根据下文“leading a 45-person team that's responsible for the robotic arm of the latest Mars rover”可知,Diana Trujillo带领的团队负责最新火星探测器的机械臂,因此她应该是一名工程师(engineer)。故选B。
3.A 根据上文“Born in 1983, even as a young girl, Trujillo was certain of her passion for science.”可知,Trujillo还是个小女孩的时候就对科学充满了热情,因此她毫不犹豫地接受了父亲提出的建议。固定短语without hesitation意为“毫不犹豫地”。故选A。
4.D 根据上文“her dad offered to send her to Miami, Florida to study Aerospace Engineering”可知,此处指父亲提出的送她去学习航空航天工程的建议(suggestion)。故选D。
5.C 根据上文“with just $300”和下文“by doing a series of housekeeping jobs”可知,Trujillo当时经济比较困难,得做很多家政工作来赚钱,所以此处指她艰难(struggle)地完成了学业。 故选C。
6.D 根据上文“by doing a series of housekeeping jobs”可知,此处指Trujillo通过打工赚钱来完成学业的过程(process)。故选D。
7.B 根据下文“became the first Hispanic woman to be admitted to the NASA Academy in 2007”可知,2007年Trujillo成为首位被NASA学院录取的拉美裔美国籍女性,所以此处指她经历了另一个改变人生的(life-changing)时刻。故选B。
8.A 根据上文“One of her professors casually mentioned an astronaut”和下文“she was ‘just one person away from knowing an astronaut’”可推测,教授不经意提到的事情让她意识到(Realizing)自己离认识宇航员其实不远。故选A。
9.C 根据上文“she was ‘just one person away from knowing an astronaut’”可推测,自己离认识宇航员其实不远这样的想法会激励(inspire)Trujillo的职业目标。故选C。
10.D 根据首段中的“to study Aerospace Engineering”和设空处下文“became the first Hispanic woman to be admitted to the NASA Academy in 2007”可知,Trujillo一开始学的是航空航天工程,所以此处指她继续(continued)学习太空科学。故选D。
11.B 根据上文叙述的Trujillo克服经济困难努力完成学业,以及在教授不经意提到的事情的启发下继续学习可推测,此处指她最终(eventually)成为第一位被NASA学院录取的拉美裔美国籍女性。故选B。
12.C 根据下文“She also leads by example, 13 women to pursue careers in STEM fields.”可知,Trujillo还做了其他的事情,所以此处指她并没有就此停止(stopped)。故选C。
13.A 根据上文“She also leads by example”可知,Trujillo以身作则,所以此处指通过自己的故事来鼓励(encouraging)女性在STEM领域从事工作。故选A。
14.D 根据上文可知,她的故事给予我们的是正面的提醒(reminder),告诉我们努力可以助力实现梦想。故选D。
15.B 根据上文“lies an entire universe of opportunities waiting for anyone willing to work hard enough to”可推测,此处用Trujillo追寻太空梦的故事激励那些努力去摘天上的星星(追寻梦想)之人。stare at盯着看;reach for伸手够;long for渴望;come after追随。故选B。
