10、41题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第一段划线词前句“A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature(一个有技巧的包装者知道如何将艺术融入自然)”和后句“so packaged is not a commodity, but a human being, lively and lovely.(这时被包装的人不再是商品,而是活生生的人。)”可知,一个有技巧的包装者知道怎么增加自然的美而不留下任何装饰的痕迹。所以 embellishment为“装饰”之意,与decoration同义。故选A。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Packaging

11、 for the middle-aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self-confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain.(中年人的包装主要是为了掩盖岁月留下的痕迹。如果你的生命中依然充满自信,并为自己的事业而努力,那么你的气质是独一无二的,你

12、的魅力和优雅会一直存在。)”可知,对于中年人来说吸引力是来自于内在的。故选C。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. (人该年轻时就年轻,该年老时就年老,这就是与自然的和谐。和谐就是美

13、,反之就是丑。)”可知,如果你要和自然保持和谐应该遵循变老的过程。故选C。【44题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“To be in the company of the elderly is like reading a thick book of good edition, which attracts one so much that one is unwilling to part with it.( 和老年人在一起就像读一本好书,很吸引人,令人爱不释手。)”可知,这句话将老人比喻成一本厚厚的书,所以这句话是说老年人经历了很多,有丰富的人生知识。故选B。BResearch has sh

It wont make up for weak answers, but it can communicate some positive things about your personality and what you might be like to work with. Blue:Yo

From the interviewers point of view, the color blue suggests calm, stability, trust, truth, confidence and security. These are all greatmessages to send

16、without saying a word. Gray:After blue, gray is the second most popular color to wear for an interview.

17、 advantage. Black:This is a commanding color and represents authority. Black also suggests excitement, so use it carefully when putting together your interview outfit. You may want to use it as an accent (着重色) like in a scarf or tie, for instancerather than as the primary color. Red:This is an extre

18、mely powerful color. Its so strong that you should only use it as an accent color. Reds are associated with energy, passion, desire, power and aggression. People think of intensity (紧张) and passion when they see the color red, so use it carefully or it could send the wrong message to the interviewer

19、. White:White shirts and blouses are always appropriate. It sends the message of simplicity, cleanliness, precision and goodness.45. What is the best title of the passage?A.

23、旨大意题。文章开篇指出面试时穿着的颜色搭配会传达重要信息,接着介绍了蓝、灰、黑、红、白五种颜色所传达的信息。所以“What the Colors of Your Clothes Say about You(你衣服的颜色说明了什么)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。【46题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“It wont make up for weak answers, but it can communicate some positive things about your personality and what you might be like to work with.( 这并不能弥

24、补你回答的不足,但可以传达出你性格中一些积极的方面,以及你可能会成为什么样的人。)”可知,着装的色彩能够传达关于面试者个性的重要信息,因此需要谨慎选择着装。故选B。【47题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“From the interviewers point of view, the color blue suggests calm, stability, trust, truth, confidence and security.(从面试官的角度来看,蓝色意味着冷静、稳定、信任、真实、自信和安全。)”可知,蓝色代表着冷静、稳定、信任、真实、自信和安全。符合题意。故选C。【48题详解】细节理

25、解题。根据文章最后一段“It sends the message of simplicity, cleanliness, precision and goodness.(它传达的信息是简单、干净、精确和善良。)”可知,如果想给人留下简洁、干净的印象应当穿白色服装。故选D。【49题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第五段“People think of intensity (紧张) and passion when they see the color red, so use it carefully or it could send the wrong message to the interview

26、er.(人们看到红色会想到紧张和热情,所以要小心使用红色,否则会给面试官传递错误的信息。)”可知,红色会使人想到紧张和热情,因此为避免传达错误信息,面试者在穿红色衣服之前应该三思。A项符合题意。故选A。CWhen your parents advise you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower(人力资源)fo

27、r your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.Get a college

28、degree, if possible. With a B. A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a masters degree, make sure it is an M.B.A., and the famous law of diminishing(逐渐减少的) returns begins to take effect.Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers e

29、arn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average salary for those truckers was $24000 while the full professors managed to earn just $23030.A doctorate is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned t

30、o industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a future which is not bright. There are more doctors unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.If you become a doctor in English or history or anthropology or politic

31、al science or languages orworst of allin philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.Thousands of doctors are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month.

32、They may also take a job in some high school or backwater(闭塞) college that pays much less than the doorkeeper earns.You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn m

33、uch of a profit on you.50. According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who _.A. will not be a disgrace to societyB. will become loyal citizensC. can take care of themselvesD. can meet the nations demand as a source of manpower51. Many doctors are out of job b

34、ecause _.A. they are improperly educatedB. they are of little commercial value to their societyC. there are fewer jobs in high schoolsD. they prefer easier jobs that make more money52. The nation is only interested in people _.A. with diplomasB. who specialize in physics and chemistryC. who are valu

37、rtunity that everyone should have【答案】50. D 51. B 52. C 53. C 54. A【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了教育是提供工作安全和财政安全的手段,是满足国家对技术工人需求的手段,有时也会存在学历和收入不成正比的情况。【50题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower(人力资源)for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassm

38、ent to your society. ”(他们真正的意思是获得足够的教育来为你的社会提供人力,但并不是让你的社会感到尴尬。)可知,社会对教育的期望是培养出那些可以满足国家需求的人力资源,故D 正确。【51题详解】推理判断题。根据第六段 “If you become a doctor in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages orworst of allin philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our natio

39、nal demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands.”(如果你成为一名英语、历史、人类学、政治科学、语言或最糟糕的哲学博士,你就有可能因为我们国家的需求而接受过多的教育。请注意,不是为了我们的需要,而是为了我们的要求。)可知,许多医生失业是因为对社会不能带来商业利益,故B正确。【52题详解】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段 “Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can

40、turn much of a profit on you.”(也就是说,足够让你对国民生产总值有所贡献,但又不能让任何人从你身上获得太多利润。)可知,社会只对能给其带来经济利益的人感兴趣,故C正确。【53题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段“Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average salary for those truckers was $24000 while the full professors manag

41、ed to earn just $23030.”(例如,你知道长途卡车司机的年薪比正式教授高吗?是的,这些卡车司机的平均工资是24000美元,而正教授的平均工资只有23030美元。)可知,学历越高不一定挣钱就越多,C不正确。故选C。【54题详解】 推断判断题。根据第二段“Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead ”(至少要拿到高中文凭。否则,你就死定了)及第五段“A doctorate is the highest degree you can get. Except f

42、or a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, ”(博士学位是你能获得的最高学位。除了一些专业领域,如物理或化学,这些专业的学位可以很快转为工业或商业用途,)可知,作者只是把教育当作一种提供工作安全和财政安全的手段,是满足国家对技术工人需求的手段。故A 正确。DSeveral weeks ago, a mysterious Christmas card dropped thro

43、ugh our mailbox. The envelope was addressed to a man named Raoul, who, I was relatively certain, did not live with us. The envelope wasnt sealed, so I opened it. The inside of the card was blank. Ed, my husband, explained that the card was both from and to the newspaper deliveryman. His name was app

44、arently Raoul, and Raoul wanted a holiday tip. We were meant to put a check inside the card and then drop the envelope in the mail. When your services are finished at 4 a.m., you cant simply hang around, like a hotel bellboy expecting a tip. You have to be direct.So I wrote a nice holiday greeting t

45、o this man who, in my imagination, fires The New York Times from his bike aimed at our front door, causing more noise with mere newsprint than most people manage with sophisticated(复杂的) black market fireworks. With a start, I realized that perhaps the reason for the 4 a.m. wake-up noise was not ordi

46、nary rudeness but carefully executed spite(怨恨): I had not tipped Raoul in Christmas past. I honestly hadnt realized I was supposed to. This was the first time hed used the card tactic(策略). So I got out my checkbook. Somewhere along the line, holiday tipping went from an optional thank-you for a year

47、 of services to a Mafia-style protection racket (收保护费组织).Several days later, I was bringing our garbage bins back when I noticed an envelope taped to one of the lids. The outside of the envelope said MICKEY. It had to be another tip request, this time from our garbage collector. Unlike Raoul, Mickey

48、 hadnt enclosed his own Christmas card from me. In a way, I appreciated the directness. “I know you dont care how merry my Christmas is, and thats fine,” the gesture said. “I want $30, or Ill forget to empty your garbage bin some hot summer day.” I put a check in the envelope and taped it back to th

49、e bin. The next morning, Ed noticed that the envelope was gone, though the trash hadnt yet been picked up: “Someone stole Mickeys tip!” Ed was quite certain. He made me call the bank and cancel the check. But Ed had been wrong. Two weeks later, Mickey left a letter from the bank on our steps. The le

50、tter informed Mickey that the check, which he had tried to cash, had been cancelled.The following Tuesday morning, when Ed saw a truck outside, he ran out with his wallet. “Are you Mickey?” The man looked at him with scorn(轻蔑). “Mickey is the garbageman. I am the recycling.” Not only had Ed insulted

51、(侮辱) this man by suggesting that he was a garbageman, but he had obviously neglected to tip him. Ed ran back inside for more funds. Then he noticed that the driver of the truck had been watching the whole incident. He peeled off another twenty and looked around, waving bills in the air. “Anyone else

52、?”Had we consulted the website of the Emily Post Institute, this embarrassing break of etiquette (礼节) could have been avoided. Under “trash/recycling collectors” in the institutes Holiday Tipping Guidelines, it says: “$10 to $30 each.” You may or may not wish to know that your hairdresser, mailman a

53、nd UPS guy all expect a holiday tip.55. The newspaper deliveryman put a blank card inside the envelope because_.A. he wanted the couple to pay for the newspaperB. he forgot to write a few words on itC. he used it to ask for a Christmas tipD. he was afraid of asking for a tip in person56. From the pa

54、ssage, we learn that the author_.A. didnt like Raouls way of delivering the paperB. didnt realize why Raoul delivered the paper that way beforeC. didnt know that Raoul delivered the paper for themD. didnt feel it necessary to meet Raoul when he came57. According to the passage, the author felt _ to

55、give Raoul a holiday tip.A. excitedB. happyC. embarrassedD. forced58. Which of the following is true about Mickey, the garbage collector?A. He wrote a letter to the couple afterwards.B. He failed to collect the money from the bank.C. He wanted the couple to send him a Christmas card.D. He collected

56、both the check and the garbage that day.59. Eds encounter(遭遇) with the recycling team shows that_.A. Ed was desperate to correct his mistakeB. Ed only wanted to give money to RaoulC. Ed was unwilling to tip the truck driverD. Ed no longer wanted to give them money60. From the passage we can infer th

57、at _.A. their garbage bin might not be emptied one day if the writer didnt give tipsB. the writer could have avoided giving tips if they had consulted the website of the Emily Post InstituteC. the writers husband didnt know Raoul at allD. the writers family was too poor to give the tips【答案】55. C 56.

58、 B 57. D 58. B 59. A 60. A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了我收到了一张空白的圣诞卡片,里面需要放入小费,然后把这张卡片放回邮箱。最开始我没有给与小费,便遭到了报复,于是我很不情愿地放了小费。几天后,清洁工Mickey也来索要圣诞节小费。最后在咨询网站后,我才意识到大家都希望收到假日小费。【55题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“We were meant to put a check inside the card and then drop the envelope in the mail. When your services are finished a

59、t 4 a.m., you cant simply hang around, like a hotel bellboy expecting a tip.(我们应该在卡片里放一张支票,然后把信封寄出去。当你的服务在凌晨4点结束的时候,你不能像酒店的侍者一样,只是待在那里等着要小费)”可知,这张空白卡片的目的是为了索取圣诞节小费。故选C。【56题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段“With a start, I realized that perhaps the reason for the 4 a.m. wake-up noise was not ordinary rudeness but car

60、efully executed spite: I had not tipped Raoul in Christmas past. I honestly hadnt realized I was supposed to.(一开始,我意识到凌晨4点被吵醒的声音可能不是普通的粗鲁,而是小心翼翼地表现出来的怨恨:在过去的圣诞节里,我没有给Raoul小费。)”可知,我以前从来没有给过Raoul小费,也不知道他为什么要发出如此粗鲁的声音。由此推知,作者以前并不知道Raoul为什么要送这张空白明信片。故选B。【57题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I honestly hadnt realized I w

61、as supposed to. (老实说,我没有意识到我应该)”可知,作者并不觉得自己应该给钱。即作者觉得自己是被迫进行表示的。故选D。【58题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The letter informed Mickey that the check, which he had tried to cash, had been cancelled. (这封信告诉米奇,他想兑现的支票已经被取消了)”可知,Mickey并没有从银行取到钱。故选B。【59题详解】细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Not only had Ed insulted(侮辱) this man by suggestin

62、g that he was a garbageman, but he had obviously neglected to tip him. Ed ran back inside for more funds. Then he noticed that the driver of the truck had been watching the whole incident. He peeled off another twenty and looked around, waving bills in the air. “Anyone else?”(ED不仅侮辱这个人说他是个垃圾工,而且显然忘了

63、给他小费。Ed跑回屋里要更多的钱。然后他注意到卡车司机一直在观察整个事件。他又拿了20块,向四周看了看,手里挥舞着钞票。“还有其他人需要吗?”)”可知,Ed在侮辱了这个人之后,还忘记给了小费,于是跑回家里拿了很多钱来补给小费,并且询问周围是否还有人要小费。由此可知,Ed非常迫切的想纠正自己的错误。故选A。【60题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“I want $30, or Ill forget to empty your garbage bin some hot summer day.(我要30美元,否则我会在某个炎热的夏天忘记给你倒垃圾桶)”可知,如果没有得到30美金,那么垃圾桶会被“忘记

64、”。由此推知,如果作者不给小费,他们的垃圾桶可能有一天不会被清空。故选A。浙江省温州新力量联盟2020-2021学年高二下学期期中联考英语试题第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分 35 分)第一节(共 10 个小题,每小题 2.5 分,满分 25 分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳项,并在答题卡将该项涂黑。AIn 2000, when I was around seven years old, my parents, sister, brother, and I were coming back from a T-ball game. There, in ou

65、r driveway, we spotted two adult geese and a small gosling (幼 鹅).The adults were startled by our return and flew away, but their baby was still too young to fly. We are no strangers to wildlife, so we avoided physical contact with the small gosling out of fear that it would keep us in its mind and b

66、e lost to its family forever. Hours passed, and night fell. The tiny little thing was wandering around our yard, unaware of what could happen.And then another morning. And still another. Each morning, we would try to drive the goose over to his parents, who kept coming back to our yard. He wouldnt g

67、o to them, though, and they wouldnt come close enough to collect him. My sister Joanna decided to call the little guy Peeper, because he would follow us around the yard making a peeping noise, nonstop.Almost a year passed. My family filled our days with feathery hugs and my dad would throw Peeper up

68、 into the air so he could fly a circle around the house.One evening, my uncle came, and my dad wanted to show him Peepers circle. He threw him up in the air, but this time, Peeper just flew off. Everyone was very, very sad. We looked for him for days, calling his name, but he didnt come back. Twenty

69、 years passed, and Peeper became a fond memory for my family.Geese are very loyal, never forgetting their first home. Even so, it came as a total shock to me when, in 2020,an aging adult goose appeared at my home. At first, I assumed it was just another goose. After two weeks of the goose coming bac

70、k repeatedly, it became clear to me that this wasnt a random goose. He did all of the same things Peeper used to and responded to the name Peeper. My old best friend returned, 20 years later.People desire connection with the natural world. Through Peeper, I have learned so much about myself and abou

73、 GooseBA strong coffee after a poor nights sleep is the kick-start many people need in the morning but new research suggests that it might be best to have a bite to eat first.A study has found that drinking coffee first can have a negative effect on blood sugar control - a risk factor for diabetes (

74、糖尿病)and heart disease.“We know that nearly half of us will wake in the morning and, before doing anything else, drink coffee - subjectively the more tired we feel, the stronger the coffee,“ said Professor James Betts, at the University of Bath in the UK.For their study, researchers at the University

75、 of Bath got 29 healthy men and women to take part in three different overnight experiments, with at least a week between them.In one, the participants had a normal nights sleep, roughly from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m., and were asked to consume a sugary drink on waking in the morning. They then experienced

76、an interrupted nights sleep, where the researchers woke them every hourfor five minutes by sending them text messages to which they had to respond and upon waking were given the same sugary drink.On another night, participants experienced the same sleep interruption, but this time were first given a

77、 strong black coffee 30 minutes before consuming the sugary drink.They found that one night of interrupted sleep did not worsen the participants blood sugar and insulin (胰 岛素)responses when compared to the normal nights sleep- although previous research suggested that losing many hours of sleep or m

78、any nights of poor sleep could have a negative effect. However, strong black coffee consumed before breakfast actually increased the blood sugar response by around 50% suggesting that relying on coffee after a bad night to stop feeling sleepy could limit your bodys ability to tolerate the sugar in y

It appears the answer may be hidden right between your eyes, in an area called the hypothalamus (下丘脑). The hypothalamus

106、 is part of your brain. It controls important activities within the body. Researchers at New Yorks Albert Einstein College of Medicine found that hypothalamus neural (神经的) stem cells also influence how fast aging takes place in the body. What are stem cells(干细胞)? They are simple cells that can devel

116、ate(分支机构).Williams-Cole was prompted(促使) to run for mayor because he wanted to bring changes to his hometown, a town of less than 1000 people. The citizens of Camp Hill have seen a sad decline of their town with many empty storefronts, trees growing inside what used to be businesses and weeds sprout

117、ing(发芽) from sidewalks, according to WSFA 12 News, Alabamas source.“My main things is to create a foundation and clear up any debts we have to get our town financially stable.” Williams-Cole told Auburn University. “ While doing that, I want to carry out things that will increase unity in the town,

118、like doing quarterly town hall meetings that are more informal and that celebrate the community. We need to open up the floor for people to complain if they want, because they have the right to do that as taxpayers.”Williams-Cole has designed a detailed schedule so that he would have enough time for

119、 both his studies and his duties as a mayor. He hopes to use his education and his position as mayor to help other people, especially children. He said he would want to become an administrator at a boarding school, which gives children holistic(全面的) learning that is essential to contemporary society

120、.“ Cole is different.” Mike Fellows, Lee County Circuit Court Judge, told Auburn University.” “ Hes obviously willing to do a lot of extra work to serve his community.

124、e Atlantic. “The reflex (习惯性动作) of answering20th-century telephonic cultureis gone.”The shift is of course due in large part to more communication options: Texting with photos, videos, emojis, reaction gifs, links and even voice messages can be a more attractive option.Texting is light and fun, not

125、nearly as demanding of your attention as a phone call. It can also be done with multiple people at the same time. Social media, email and video calls have also eaten away at traditional phone calls.In recent years, another reason has caused people to ignore phone calls completely: robocalls. Robocal

126、ls are automate (自动化的) messages from organizations verifying (核实) your phone number or telemarketers trying to sell something.

Now it is being used to influence the largest social media platform in the world, Facebook The Stop Hate for Profit

133、campaign claims the platform doesnt do enough to remove racist and hateful comments from its site. Already, this has resulted in a series of major companies, including Adidas and Starbucks, removing their advertising from the platform.Can that boycott hurt Facebook? The short answer is yes-the vast

134、majority of Facebooks income comes from ads. David Cumming from Aviva Investors told the BBC that the loss of trust could “destroy the business.” On Friday, Facebooks share price dropped by 8 percent, making CEO Mark Zuckerberg, on paper, $6 billion poorer. But despite the huge share price reduction

135、, some believe this boycott will only scratch the surface. Apart from companies only committing to the boycott for one month, the biggest factor is much of Facebooks advertising income comes from thousands of small- to medium-sized businesses, many of which have not signed up for the boycott. Accord

136、ing to CNN, the sites 100 highest-spending brands only account for 6 percent of advertising income.

Obviously, the fact that I handle our finances gives me some sort of strange po

146、wer that makes my husband feel he has to hide money from me.As a matter of fact, I can very clearly remember how the financial form in our relationship started. We were standing in the hall of our bank shortly after we got married, discussing what we would do with our accounts. Because I had a check

147、ing account and a savings account with more money in them, we decided to simply add my husbands to mine and close out his accountsand the same went for our credit cards.Im the only one who ever goes to the bank and therefore, Im the one who brings home cash, which I then split with my husband. I nev

148、er intend this arrangement to make my husband feel like he has any kind of “allowance”, nor do I ever, ever tell him what he can and cannot buy. I encourage him to view all of our accounts regularly, and provide him with access to all of our passwords, but when it comes right down to it, money is my

149、 game, not his.But the question is, is it a bad thing? Thinking about it a little more, I realized that in a small way, Im actually glad that if money automatically creates a power imbalanceIm glad Im the one in control. Maybe it wouldnt be an issue, but I can see how it would be too easy for a moth

150、er who stays at home with her kids, or maybe doesnt make money as much as her husband, to feel like she is not an equal partner.Call me crazy, but I think its kind of nice to be the woman with the financial powerI feel like I will use my power only for good and not evil.21.According to the author, h

153、ore the truth can get its boots on. This quote is attributed to Mark Twain. In todays Internet world of fake news“, lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.To make matters worse, most young people get news from special media sites where facts are mixed with rumors,

154、half-truths and complete lies. This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15-year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to distinguish fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that stude

155、nts at all levels of education could not tell real news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice. They want to influence public opinion either for or against something or someone. It is impo

156、rtant, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be skeptical of online information.Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more credible sources of information. Reporters are professionally trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of

157、making sure those facts are correct. However, if you are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be credible? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next,

158、 look for other sources from mainstream media to confirm the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you wont be fooled into chasing lies.24.What will always happen to young people with news around?A. They prefer a real news story.B. They are easily taken in by fake news.C. They

159、can tell fact from opinion.D. They get worried about their education.25.What is the authors suggestion from the text?A. Fight against prejudices.B. Avoid traditional media.C. Be an editor of your own.D. Believe in trained reporters.26.What is the text mainly about?A. The truth about fake news.B. The

Featuring radio-navigation, radio-determination an

164、d enhanced timing synchronization(同步) functions, the last satellite, after joining BDS-3 family, will allow the constellation to provide more cost-effective navigation services, which rapidly wins the global market.Based on the DFH-3B satellite platform, one of the largest platforms in service in Ch

165、ina, the spacecraft is designed to work in orbit for at least 12 years. The latest launch came 26 years after construction of the BeiDou-1 officially started in 1994. The first generation of the BeiDou system made China the third country after the U.S. and Russia to have a satellite navigation syste

166、m. By 2000, the construction of the BDS-1 was completed, which was mainly used to broadcast positioning and timing signals over China. 12 years later, the construction of BDS-2, designed to provide navigation services over the broader Asia-Pacific region, was completed.
