(2025吉林长春外国语学校开学考试)
There is an ancient Chinese story about a giant man named Kuafu who chases the sun. He drains the Yellow River and the Wei River during his race and finally dies of dehydration(脱水). His failure has reminded people of the unstoppable power of the sun for centuries. And yet, scientists throughout history have tried to better understand the most important star in our sky. On Aug. 12, 2018, NASA launched the Parker Solar Probe(探测器), marking the start of its trip to the sun.
The probe itself is almost as big as a car and needs the help of a powerful rocket to escape Earth's orbit, change direction and reach the sun. In order to reach the sun, the probe must complete seven flybys of Venus(金星), using the power of the planet's gravity to change its path, sending it toward the sun. But that's not the only difficult part of the journey. As the probe approaches the sun's corona(日冕), it will have to bear temperatures reaching 1,400 ℃, as well as deal with serious radiation. So how will the probe survive
According to NASA, a special shield(保护罩) has been used, which is a special 11.5 cm-thick carbon-composite shield that will be positioned between the probe and the sun's corona. It's advanced technology like this that will make the probe's trip to the sun much smoother. If everything goes as planned, the probe will reach a speed of 692,018 kilometers per hour as it orbits the sun, setting a new record for the fastest man-made object in history, NBC noted. It will fly close to the sun 24 times between 2018 and 2025.
The “mission to touch the sun” will “not only make history by answering questions that have puzzled scientists for decades, but also lead to the discovery of new phenomena that are completely unknown to us now,” Raouafi told Discovery Magazine. “This mission has the potential to push solar research into a new direction,” he added.
1.What is the aim of mentioning Kuafu in the first paragraph
A.To tell the origin of the Parker Solar Probe.
B.To lead to the topic of researching the sun.
C.To show the achievement of ancient China.
D.To show the difficulties of studying the sun.
2.The probe will meet the challenges except .
A.the heat near the sun B.the route to the sun
C.the radiation from the sun D.the distance to the sun
3.What do we know about the Parker Solar Probe
A.It's twice the size of a car.
B.It has an 11.5-inch-thick shield.
C.It's the fastest probe ever designed.
D.It's designed to carry a powerful rocket.
4.What might be the best title of the passage
A.Taking a Closer Look at the Sun
B.Discovering the Unknown Puzzles
C.The Story of Kuafu Chasing the Sun
D.The Scientific Value of Searching the Sun
Ⅳ.七选五

Gardening 380 Kilometers Above Earth
Astronauts have to go through physical, psychological, and technical training. They also go through training in how to care for plants. These “astronaut gardeners” share their work and living space with plants.
Taking seeds and plants along on a trip isn't a new idea. As space trips become longer, it will be necessary to grow food in space. 1 Because of this, it's not practical to send everything needed for a long journey, only to be used once and thrown away.
Plants can have many uses on a space journey. They can provide more fresh things. 2 Also, plants can help to make air quality better because they produce oxygen. They can improve the quality of the air inside the spacecraft—the only air the astronauts can breathe.
3 Due to the lack of gravity in space, the oxygen that the plants produce stays around the plants. This can actually kill them, so fans are needed to circulate the air. Without gravity, roots don't “know” how to grow down, leaves don't “know” how to grow up, and water doesn't easily travel up from the roots to the leaves. 4 Besides, soil is too heavy to send into space, and special liquid gels(胶滞体) are used to help plants grow.
Scientists are also working on the plants themselves. They are trying to make plants grow more rapidly and grow with less water and light in space, and they are looking for ways to make plants more resistant to diseases. 5 Imagine that deserts may one day provide lots of fresh food for local people, saving transportation costs. Similarly, plants that are resistant to diseases could provide an important food supply. With the world's population now at more than eight billion, our astronaut gardeners may help discover ways to feed them.
A.Every plant grown in space must have several uses.
B.However, there are challenges of growing plants in space.
C.Such methods may result in improvements back here on Earth.
D.The cost of taking anything into space is about $22,000 per kilogram.
E.Specialized containers are being developed to help the plants grow correctly.
F.Astronauts will welcome the addition of fruit and vegetables to their diet of dry foods.
G.Currently all oxygen is taken aboard in tanks and then caught again so it can be reused.

(2025河南省信阳高级中学月考)
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。
After a long battle against a serious illness, Sam finally went back to school, hoping to get back to his old self. But he quickly found it hard to keep up with his lessons. His biggest problem was reading class. Before, he was good at reading, but now even short paragraphs made him tired. He couldn't focus, and the school that once felt like a safe place now made him feel stressed. The more pressure to keep up with his classmates grew, the poorer grades shook his confidence. He tried his best, but the gap between what he could do and what he used to made him feel sad and worried.
His reading teacher, Mr. Green, noticed his struggles and stepped in. After school, Mr. Green asked Sam to come to his office and said softly, “Sam, I know it's tough, but everyone faces hard times. What matters is how you deal with them.” Then he added, “What's your favorite thing to imagine ” Sam hesitated, and then mumbled, “Space... I like thinking about rockets and planets.” Mr. Green smiled, “Reading is like a spaceship, Sam. It can take you anywhere—but you need to learn the controls first.”
Curious but unsure, Sam watched as Mr. Green turned paragraphs into star charts. He used bright markers to circle tricky words, explaining them like “alien codes” to decode(解码). Sentences became “missions” to complete, and pages felt like “galaxies” to explore. For the first time, reading didn't feel like a battle—it felt like an adventure.
But progress was slow. A tough reading test left him tearful. “I'll never get this right,” he said. Mr. Green crouched(蹲下) down beside him, “Every mistake is just a step closer to the stars.” Encouraged, Sam kept practicing. He started seeing words as puzzle pieces, connecting them to form stories. After each small improvement, Mr. Green gave him a sticker(贴纸) shaped like a rocket. “This is your prize. These small improvements will lead to great success. Believe in yourself,” he said.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
The turning point came during a reading class when Sam was handed a paper to finish.
Months later, Sam stood in front of his class to deliver a presentation on overcoming challenges.

长难句
译文:美国全国广播公司指出,如果一切按照计划进行的话,该探测器将以每小时692,018千米的速度环绕太阳轨道运行,创造有史以来速度最快的人造物体的新纪录。
1.B 推理判断题。文章一开始提到夸父逐日失败,警示人们太阳无法阻挡的力量。然而,从古至今人们对太阳的探索从未止步。2018年8月12日,NASA发射了“帕克”太阳探测器,开启了探日之旅。由此推测,第一段提到“夸父逐日”的目的是引出探索太阳的话题。故选B。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the probe must complete seven flybys of Venus...it will have to bear temperatures reaching 1,400 ℃, as well as deal with serious radiation”可知,该探测器将会遇到去太阳的路线、太阳的温度和太阳辐射的挑战,不包括到太阳的距离。故选D。
3.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“the probe will reach a speed of 692,018 kilometers per hour as it orbits the sun, setting a new record for the fastest man-made object in history”可知,“帕克”太阳探测器是有史以来被设计出来的速度最快的探测器。故选C。
4.A 主旨大意题。
根据文中的“the start of its trip to the sun”“reach the sun”“approaches the sun's corona”“fly close to the sun”等关键信息并结合上面的思维导图可知,A项“Taking a Closer Look at the Sun”最适合作为文章的标题。故选A。
Ⅳ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在太空种植植物的原因、好处和挑战。
【高频词汇】 1.go through经历 2.practical adj.切实可行的;实际的 3.resistant adj.有抵抗力的;抵抗的 4.similarly adv.类似地;同样,也 5.addition n.增加;添加物;加法
【熟词生义】 fan熟义:n.迷;狂热爱好者 生义:n.风扇
【差距词汇】 circulate v.(液体或气体)环流,循环
1.D 细节句。设空处下一句提到“因此,把长途旅行所需的东西都发送出去,却只用一次就扔掉是不可行的”,D项“将任何物体带入太空的花费约为每千克22,000美元”说的就是原因,符合语境。故选D。
2.F 细节句。设空处上一句提到“它们能够提供更加新鲜的东西”,F项“宇航员将欣然接受在他们的干粮饮食中加入水果和蔬菜”承接上文内容,符合语境。故选F。
3.B 过渡句。设空处上一段介绍了太空种植的好处,下文介绍了在太空种植植物也有一定的困难,B项“然而,在太空种植植物也有挑战”承上启下,符合语境。故选B。
4.E 细节句。设空处上一句提到“在失重的情况下,(植物的)根不知道如何向下生长,(植物的)叶子不知道如何向上生长,水分也不容易从根部传导到叶子里”,E项“正在研发专门的容器来帮助植物正确生长”讲的是针对上文的困境正在采取的措施。下文提到了土壤太重的问题和解决方法,与这里的描述情况相同(都是“提出问题——解决问题”)。故选E。
5.C 过渡句。根据设空处上文可知,科学家们正在寻找让植物在太空中少用水和光的同时能更快生长而且更抗病的方法;下文提到改良后的植物对地球的影响;由此推测,设空处应将话题从太空转到地球,C项“这些方法或许会在回到地球后带来改善”承上启下,符合语境。故选C。

One possible version:
The turning point came during a reading class when Sam was handed a paper to finish. At first, the words on the paper for Sam seemed to blur together, and his heart was filled with frustration. Mr. Green's gentle hand on his shoulder calmed him, and he tried again. This time, he managed a full paragraph. Relief and pride surged through him. It felt like the first glimpse of light after months of darkness. Encouraged by this small victory, Sam began to push harder. Slowly but surely, he began to feel stronger, not just in his reading but in his belief that he could overcome this challenge.
Months later, Sam stood in front of his class to deliver a presentation on overcoming challenges. His hands trembled slightly, but his voice was steady. “Almost a few months ago, I couldn't manage to read without struggling.” The room grew silent as Sam shared his story, recalling the moments of despair, and the strong support of Mr. Green, who believed in him when he couldn't believe in himself. As he finished, the room broke into applause, loud and heartfelt. At that moment, Sam realized his journey wasn't just about healing himself, but about giving others the courage to face their own struggles with hope and determination.
