No human has set foot on the Moon since 1972. Now，after more than four decades of inactivity，interest in putting humans back on the Moon is finally heating up again. But who will get there first?
CHINA
On 14 December 2013，China successfully landed its Jade Rabbit rover(探测车)on the Moon. It is now working on its next exploration mission. Named Chang'e 4，the mission is scheduled to touch down in the Aitken Basin near the end of 2018. If successful，it will be the first landing on the Moon's far side.
RUSSIA
Russia plans a manned Moon landing in 2030. It is currently working on a project whose idea is that the landers will explore the south pole of the Moon，exploring for resources such as minerals and water ice to be used to provide for a human outpost (前哨站)．
INDIA
Following the success of its Chandrayaan-1 in 2008，India announced a follow-on mission. Chandrayaan-2 was meant to cooperate with Russia. But when the Russians failed to deliver the promised lander in 2013，India decided to go it alone. Chandrayaan-2 is about to be sent up in 2018.
USA
In December 2018，NASA plans to send up the Exploration Mission 1，an uncrewed test of their Orion astronaut capsule in which the craft will circle around the Moon before returning to Earth. All being well，a crewed capsule will follow in 2023. Should the mission prove a success，the astronauts will be the first humans to see the far side of the Moon with their own eyes since Apollo 17 in 1972.

C．easy D．difficult
解析：选B 此处是指因为动物能很快感觉到气愤和伤心。quick在此指反应灵敏。
5．A.in time B．on time

10．A.single B．only

C．grown-ups D．relatives
解析：选B 根据下文可知，此处的意思应该是指宠物对“孩子们”很重要。第17、18空后的“helps a child”有所提示。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
A home science experiment recently took the world by storm. Two teens from Toronto, in Canada, sent a Lego man rising above the Earth and captured their tiny astronaut's trip on film.
Mathew Ho and Asad Muhammad, both 17, used a weather balloon to launch their plastic lego model 16 miles above the Earth. This is inside a part of Earth's atmosphere.
The two teens were inspired by a similar project performed by students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The MIT students had launched a weather balloon with a camera into near space and taken many unusual images of the Earth. Mathew and Asad then spent four months figuring out how to launch their own spacecraft into the space.
Traveling to space is expensive for NASA, but Mathew and Asad worked hard to keep their costs down. They bought much of their equipment used and even sewed the Lego man's parachute (降落伞) by hand. In total, the project cost only $400.
“We had a lot of anxiety on launch day because there were high winds when we were going up，” Mathew told reporters. They had to pump extra helium (氦) into the balloon so that it would rise quickly and avoid being blown too far off course by the strong winds.
The toy astronaut's journey lasted 97 minutes before the balloon broke and he fell back to Earth. Mathew and Asad then spent two weekends looking for their spacecraft. It had landed 76 miles away from the launch site.
The student scientists are currently finishing up their final year of high school and applying for colleges. They are also looking into more do-it-yourself space projects.
“I guess the sky is not really the limit anymore，” Mathew told reporters. “We never knew we'd get this far. It's been a lesson for us that hard work pays off.”

In our everyday lives we meet situations in which we take many things for granted. We only treasure things when they are gone. This is a sad truth of human nature. One day, I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.
One evening, I left work and boarded the train. After entering, I noticed something unusual. The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing. I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats. I sensed a funny smell. It wasn't long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me. He was bleeding from his nose. Why wasn't anyone helping him?
His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell. Along with the smell, his eyes were dull, watery, and red. Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime. As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him. All the seats around him were empty.
Suddenly, he began to swear at the people around him. A plain-clothes police officer who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man. The officer, not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train. As the officer walked the man out of the train, the homeless man turned around and said “MY HOME！” and started crying.
A man doesn't value things until they are gone. If he didn't have a home, at least he had freedom. Now he has neither. No one wants to help someone who won't help himself.

It is necessary to be reasonable and flexible enough to avoid conflicts as much as possible and live in peace with others. 1 If you have done all your best to avoid conflicts and you are still arguing, then read these effective tips on how to avoid conflicts.
Don't get in the center of the conflict.
Sometimes people can get in the center of conflicts due to their enthusiasm for offering help. Frankly speaking, it is very unwise, because it can make you the main figure of the conflict. 2 You should focus on your own life issues.
Be kind.
3 Life is full of conflicts and disagreements, and that's why you should find more conservative ways of dealing with them. For example, kindness can lessen the conflict.
Try to be a peacekeeper.
Peacekeepers tend to cooperate with people without bad emotions which usually lead to arguments and even conflicts. “ 4 ”This saying is the life motto of a natural-born peacekeeper.Don't worry if you are not a natural-born peacekeeper; you can gain this skill during life.
Walk off.
When the conflict is gathering pace and you can't manage to control yourself, you should choose to handle the situation in another way. By all means, try to keep yourself away from stress. 5 You should get away from the situation for a while.
A．The greatest victory is a battle not fought.
B．Conflicts are unavoidable, so try to accept them.
C．Weak people usually desire others to offer help and support.
D．Let other people solve their problems without your presence.
E．It is helpful to put some distance between yourself and the opponent.
F．When someone pushes you to the limit, try to act kindly towards this person.
G．Arguing can either break your friendship or affect your relationship to some degree.

2．解析：选D 根据空后一句可知，作者建议把注意力集中在自己的事情上；据此可以判断，空处建议“让其他人自己解决他们自己的问题”，故D项符合文意。
3．解析：选F 根据该段标题Be kind.可知，该段主要阐述“和善待人”的建议，这与F项中的“try to act kindly towards this person”照应，故F项符合文意。
4．解析：选A 根据空后一句可以判断，空处是调解人的一句格言。A项意为“最伟大的胜利是一场没有战斗的斗争。”，故A项符合文意。
5．解析：选E 根据空前一句可知，这里作者建议要远离冲突，离开对手；据此可知E项符合文意。

Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives. For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving. Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.
Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programs come to us through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location.
We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35, 880 kilometers above the equator. Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11, 000 kilometers an hour—exactly the same speed that the earth rotates. A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae (天线) facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit, so there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position. This usually happens about every five or six days.
Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10～12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to Earth to be repaired. Often, very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.
【解题导语】 卫星不仅在科学探索方面对人类有帮助，而且在我们的生活中也起着非常重要的作用。

Everyone who participates in holiday activities has traditions, which involve a holiday meal, helping the needy, the practicing of faith, the lighting of candles, and much more. As is well known, holiday traditions play an important role in the lives of children. Here are some of the primary benefits of holiday traditions for children.
Firstly, holiday traditions create stability. Although children often seek out novelties—such as the newest video game or movie—they also desire stability in their lives. This is especially the case for teens, who are experiencing rapid and often confusing changes in their social, emotional and physical world. Holiday traditions serve as touchstones that the family returns to year after year, no matter what happens. This helps developing children feel secure, in spite of all the shifting that is occurring within and around them.
Secondly, holiday traditions help children feel useful. From about 5 to 11 years of age, children struggle to believe that they can be useful and successful at a variety of activities. Holiday traditions typically involve clear roles and responsibilities for each family member, from the youngest to the oldest. For instance, a kid may be tasked with picking out the candy that will be given out on Halloween or helping to make cookies for Christmas. In successfully completing their holiday-related tasks children get to naturally work on their sense of industry, and therefore develop their personalities.
Finally, holiday traditions convey important cultural values. For one, the values of the larger group are passed along. For example, the celebration of Thanksgiving centers around American values. At the same time, holiday traditions pass clear messages about what the particular family values. For instance, if the family tradition helps out at a soup kitchen every Thanksgiving, the importance of community involvement is strongly communicated.

(recognise) practicing doctors as well as dietitians have degrees in giving medical 8. (suggest).

【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。当很多人有健康或营养方面的问题时，他们会直接去百度搜索，自我诊断。这其实是不科学的，因为搜索引擎的结果是按照受欢迎的程度而不是按照准确性来排序的。因此百度不是医生，遇到问题，最好和医生预约，去该去的地方。
1．解析：考查固定搭配。be faced with ...是固定搭配，意为“面对……”。people为集合名词，谓语动词应用复数形式；又因全文时态为一般现在时。故填are faced。
答案：are faced
2．解析：考查副词。此处用increasing的副词形式修饰形容词“common”。故填increasingly。
答案：increasingly
3．解析：考查时态及主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，本句的主语是“some of which”，which指代前面的不可数名词“advice”，故空格处应用be动词的单数形式。此处应用一般现在时。故填is。
答案：is
4．解析：考查名词。句意：同时，搜索引擎的排位结果是按受欢迎程度而不是按准确性……空处和前面的名词“popularity”并列，故应用名词形式。故填accuracy。
答案：accuracy
5．解析：考查非谓语动词。be worth doing sth.是固定结构，意为“值得做某事”。故填checking。
答案：checking
6．解析：考查代词。句意：任何人都可自称为饮食专家，营养学家……call oneself ...意为“自称……”。故填themselves。
答案：themselves
7．解析：考查非谓语动词。此处表示官方认可的，逻辑主语“doctors”和动词recognise之间是被动关系，故用其过去分词形式。故填recognised。
答案：recognised
8．解析：考查名词。空处作非谓语动词“giving”的宾语，应用名词形式，指只有被官方认可的医生才有资格给出医学建议，因此用复数形式。故填suggestions。
答案：suggestions
9．解析：考查连接词。句意：如果你不确定，仍然想知道巧克力饮食是否会起作用……宾语从句成分完整，在“wondering”后面表示不确定，拿不准，应用whether，意为“是否”。该句中有or not所以不用if。故填whether。
答案：whether
10．解析：考查冠词。此处表示和医生预约，是泛指概念。appointment是可数名词，且其读音以元音音素开头。故填an。
答案：an

One possible version：
In order to help teenagers learn more about and appreciate poetry, a poetry contest was held in No.1 High School, March 10th.This contest caught the attention of many students. Over 200 senior students from different high schools all over the city gathered together, reciting their works and exchanging thoughts. This contest made a great impression on the students and had an influence on them. Many competitors said that they were getting close to poems through this competition. It was also said that poetry could help them release pressure and grow up happily. They hoped that more such activities would be held in the future.

?An old woman went suddenly blind. She promised a doctor a lot of money if he could make her see again. “If you fail，” she said, “You will get nothing.” The doctor agreed. The doctor soon discovered what was wrong with her, but he decided not to cure her right away. Instead, each time he visited, he secretly took some of her things. When he had taken everything he wanted, he cured her blindness and sent her a large bill. ?When the old woman could see again she noticed that all her things had gone and she refused to pay the bill. ?So the doctor took her before a judge.
She told the judge what the doctor said was true. But she said she wasn't cured, because she still couldn't see any of the things in her house.
The old woman won her case and the doctor went away unhappily without getting his pay.

Travel-worthy Destinations in Best Films
Arrival Bozeman, Montana, U. S.
The year's best thriller，Arrival follows a professor to a military camp in Montana, where she works to translate the language coming from alien visitors. The film, set in the wide landscape of Montana, connects the vastness of the universe with the natural beauty of Bozeman. Travel to Bozeman, and you're bound to feel its quietness. In this town, the wildlife of the Bridger Mountains lives alongside the constant inflow of Montana State University students. With all its breathtaking landscape, Bozeman is the perfect place to do some soul-searching.
Fences Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U. S.
Fences tells of an African-American father supporting his family during the civil rights movement of the 1950s. The film was shot in Pittsburgh, known for its blue-collar history. Today it has grown into a center of progress and culture. It is home to the world's first green convention center. On top of its environmental development, the city has worked to keep its diverse cultural heritage. Visitors can discover Pittsburgh's history at the Heinz History Center and taste the Mediterranean food at Cure.
Moonlight Miami, Florida, U. S.
A masterpiece of self-discovery，Moonlight follows an African-American boy in Miami who is trying to find his place in the world. Much of the film is set in a low-income neighborhood north of downtown, but visitors to Miami will likely see a different side of the lively city. Modern art museums and restaurants fill the inner corridors, while Miami Beach is filled with music and ocean lovers. There's something for everyone in Miami, so enjoy the party.

You don't know what you've got until it's gone. When I bake cookies, I immediately miss them the moment I have eaten the last one. Last summer when I left a summer camp, I didn't realize how great it really was until I got home. What happens, however, when that happens to one of your senses?
A few months ago, I woke up deaf in one ear. I did not pay much attention to it at first. It felt that I had water in my ear. However, I began to hear less and less out of that ear. I even had to ask people to talk into my other ear so I could hear them. I didn't realize how serious it was until later in the day. That evening, when I was sitting on my bed doing chemistry homework, I fell off my bed! When trying to get up, I was incredibly dizzy (头晕的)．
I went to see a doctor who told me that hearing loss was common. However, it was usually bilateral，or occurs in both ears. He said that my hearing should come back within a week.
After about a week the dizziness eventually went away, but the hearing loss did not. The medicine helped and I gained some of my hearing back. After many hearing tests, it was determined that I had permanent hearing loss in that ear.
School became harder for me because I couldn't hear my teachers. I was very depressed.
Finally, I bought a hearing aid. With the hearing aid, my hearing is almost back to normal! It makes school and group conversations easier.
My friends, teachers, and even complete strangers always ask me questions about hearing loss. I answer them patiently. I never get offended because I know that this is new to them. I am delighted I can teach them something new.
What I have learned from this particular situation is that when things are desperate, there is always something good that can come out of it. My experience has given me an opportunity to teach people about something new to them and it has taught me about the value of hearing.

Cities are likely to be affected by overheating, thanks to something called the urban heat island effect. Cities tend to be short of trees, which provide shade, and they are covered with black pavement, which absorbs heat from the sun. Think of how it feels to wear a dark shirt versus a white shirt on a sunny day. A black shirt absorbs light, heating you up. But a white shirt reflects light, keeping you cool.
The average temperature in a city of a million or more people can be more than 5 degrees F hotter than surrounding areas. That extra 5 degrees can turn a hot day from uncomfortable to deadly. As temperatures rise, cities will be an especially dangerous place to live during a heat wave. To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.
As part of that effort, Los Angeles is coating its roads in CoolSeal, a gray paint that keeps streets and parking lots 10 degrees cooler than black asphalt(沥青). It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality. Hot weather worsens air pollution by turning car exhaust into smog, which can make life miserable for people with asthma(哮喘) and other breathing problems.
Of course, L．A. will have to do more than paint over a few streets to cool off the city. Angelinos will also need to plant more trees and apply white paint to rooftops—at least those not already covered in solar panels. While L．A. is a pioneer of reflective streets, other cities, like New York, are already experimenting with reflective roofs or, like Melbourne, lowering the temperature by planting trees. L．A. is hardly alone in its effort to stay cool.
“This is an urgent challenge, and it's much bigger than one person，”said Mayor Garcetti in a recent statement.“Climate change is a fact of life that people in Los Angeles and cities around the world live with every day.”
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了洛杉矶采取的降温方法，除了种植树木外，更主要的是将道路漆成灰白色、将房顶漆成白色，这些措施有效而环保，不仅降低了降温成本，还改善了空气质量，降低了哮喘等呼吸性疾病的发病率。
28．Which of the following contributes to the urban heat island effect?
A．Planting more trees in the streets.
B．Covering the streets with gray paint.
C．Applying reflective paint to rooftops.
D．Furnishing every house with air conditioners.
解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“air conditioning sends power bills soaring”可推知，夏天人们大量使用空调；又根据常识可知，空调外机的运行会导致气温上升，从而导致热岛效应，故D项符合文意。
29．What should the city officials emphasize during hot summer?
A．How to make the city cooler.
B．Where to wear a white shirt.
C．Why to coat the roads with black paint.
D．When to cut off the electricity supply.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“To protect public health, city officials are going to make the city cooler.”可知，为了保护人们的身体健康，在炎热的夏季，城市的官员们着重考虑如何降低城市的温度，故A项正确。
30．What benefit can people gain from the use of CoolSeal?
A．Increasing the indoor activities.
B．Promoting the sale of air conditioners.
C．Making life easier and more comfortable.
D．Reducing the number of cold days.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第三段，尤其是该段第二、三句“It will help Angelinos save money during the summer, when air conditioning sends power bills soaring. And it will save lives by lowering temperatures and improving air quality.”可知，使用CoolSeal不仅有助于降低温度，还能在夏季节省空调开支和改善空气质量从而让人们过得更舒适，故C项正确。
31．What's the main idea of the passage?
A．L.A.adopted many approaches to fight against the heat.
B．L.A.calls on people to fight against global warming.
C．More and more countries begin to plant trees in the streets.
D．L.A.is painting its streets gray to keep the city cool.
解析：选D 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了洛杉矶为了降低城市气温，除了种植树木外，还将道路漆成灰白色，并将房顶漆成白色，这些措施有效而且环保，不仅降低了降温成本，还改善了空气质量，降低了哮喘等呼吸性疾病的发病率。据此可知，D项最能概括文意。
D
Scientists have discovered thirteen kinds of vitamins. They say vitamins help to carry out chemical changes within cells. If we do not get enough of the vitamins we need in our food, we are at risk of developing a number of diseases. Which foods should be eaten to keep us healthy? Let us look at some important vitamins.
Vitamin A helps prevent skin and other tissues from becoming dry. People who do not get enough vitamin A cannot see well in darkness. Vitamin A is found in fish liver oil and the yellow part of eggs.
Vitamin B-1 is also called thiamine. Thiamine changes starchy(含淀粉的) foods into energy. Thiamine is found not just in whole grains like brown rice, but also in beans and peas, nuts, and meat and fish.
Vitamin B-12 is needed so folic acid can do its work. Together, they help produce red blood cells. Folic acid has been shown to prevent physical problems in babies when taken by their mothers during pregnancy. Vitamin B-12 is found naturally in foods like eggs, meat, fish and milk products. Vitamin B-12 is found in green leafy vegetables and other foods, like legumes and citrus fruits (柑橘类水果)．
Vitamin C is needed for strong bones and teeth. The body stores little vitamin C．So we must get it every day in foods such as citrus fruits, tomatoes and uncooked cabbage.
Vitamin D prevents the children's bone disease rickets (佝偻病). Ultraviolet light from the sun changes a substance in the skin into vitamin D．Fish liver oil also contains vitamin D.
Vitamin K is needed for healthy blood. It thickens the blood around a cut to stop bleeding. It can also be found in pork products, liver and in vegetables like cabbage, kale and spinach (菠菜)．
Vitamins are important to our health. A lack of required vitamins can lead to health problems.
【解题导语】 本文为大家介绍了维生素的重要性，并列举了几类维生素。

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We spend hours every day doing things that aren't necessarily productive or healthy. Below are some ways to create better habits for yourself!
Think. What's holding you back? Before you begin adjusting your habits, you should break down the reasons why you're hesitating(犹豫). Could the habits be inconvenient? Could they make you feel worried? These reasons don't mean you're sure to fail. 36 Once you know each reason specifically, you can develop a solution.
37 It doesn't have to be absolutely perfect, but you should be relatively stress-free when you begin a habit change. When you're stressed or upset about something, it'll cause disorder in your daily life and make it harder to keep up with your good habit.
Pick just one. 38 Developing habits is like overloading yourself with coursework. The more you try to pile, the more likely you are to fail. In order to make a habit automatic, it takes a lot of conditioning.
Start small. We often have dreams where we change our lives in one day. 39 As human beings, we get over-motivated (动机过强的) and pile tasks. Instead of doing that, build yourself up gradually. For example, if you want to exercise and start out at 30 minutes per workout, increase it to 35 minutes next time.
Have a role model. Sometimes the actions of others are enough to convince us to leave the couch(长沙发). Think of a role model in your life—it can be a musician, athlete, educator, or anyone you admire. 40 They got off their couch and changed their life, so that means you can, too!
A．Set your goals.
B．Be sure your life is in order.
C．Chances are, they'll probably enjoy it too!
D．These people are well-known for a reason.
E．You just need to deal with them one by one.
F．Make sure you focus on picking up one habit.
G．The bad news is that that's pretty much impossible.
【解题导语】 本文主要介绍了几种培养好习惯并坚持它的几种方法。
36．解析：选E 本句的关键词是“them”，指的是上文提到的“These reasons”且“deal with them one by one”与后文的“know each reason specifically”相照应。
37．解析：选B 本句总结了本段的主要意思，即在改变习惯时要保证自己的生活井然有序，不慌张，可以从“stress-free，stressed or upset，cause disorder in your daily life”等判断出。
38．解析：选F 本句解释了本段的主题句内容。
39．解析：选G 本句对上文的内容进行评论：想要一天改变生活，是不可能的事情。
40．解析：选D 本句对上文提到的人物特点做说明：他们因为一个理由而出名。

When I was young, I lived in the countryside. At that time, the trees there were very green, that left a deep impression on me and the water there was so much clear that I even could see the fish swimming. When it gets dark, the air was cooler than it in the daytime. People liked to walk out their houses to chat together. I liked to play games with my friends but ran along the village happily.

One possible version：
Recently our class had a discussion on whether space is worth exploring. 30% of the students don't think it worthwhile. They think that space is too far away from us and our daily life, and the money spent on space exploration could have been used to solve such problems as starvation and pollution. However, the others hold the opposite view because we have benefited a lot from space exploration, such as using satellites for communication and the weather forecast. Also, space research will enable us to find new resources to solve the problem of energy shortage on the earth.
Personally, I am in favour of space exploration. We may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day.
