10、on June 5. When the crews mission finishes around the end of 2022, the Tiangong space station will be fully operational, according to China Daily.Developments have been made not only in space, but also on Earth. There are currently six satellite launch sites in China, including Jiuquan Satellite Lau
11、nch Center in Gansu, Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan, Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in Shanxi and Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in Hainan; and two newly constructed ones: China Oriental Spaceport in Shandong and Xiangshan Satellite Launch Center in Zhejiang. How are the launch sites c
12、hosen? Several factors are taken into consideration.Site locationLaunching a spacecraft should consider the Earths rotation（自转）. The lower the latitude（纬度）, the faster the Earths rotation. If the satellites orbit is in the same direction as the Earths rotation, a lower latitude adds to the speed whe
13、n the satellite is launched, leading to lower fuel costs. Experts claim that if a satellite is launched at the equator, where the Earths rotation is the fastest, the fuel usage can be reduced by 5 percent.Weather conditionsImagine launching a rocket on a stormy day doesnt seem possible, does it? The
14、 sites require a stable climate with low temperature fluctuations（波动）. If the local climate varies dramatically, it is more difficult for scientists to monitor the spacecraft and perform experiments. A stable climate could also reduce variations of experiments since the weather has little effect on
15、the tests. For example. Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center has perfect weather conditions. Being dry and warm, the site is suitable for launches nearly 300 days a year.Transportation factors An ideal launch site should be located in a large space with a small population. But the launch site cannot be l
16、ocated in the middle of nowhere. Launch activities require a big amount of material. Therefore, the site needs to be close enough to transportation infrastructure, such as ports, rails and roads. Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site was constructed near coastal ports which allows access to transportation
17、.21. According to the text, where is the most fuel-efficient place for launching satellites?（ ）A. Xiangshan Satellite Launch Center.B.Wenchang Satellite Launch Site.C.Xichang Satellite Launch Center.D. Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center.22.

It is located in the middle of nowhere.BFrench writer Annie Ernaux won the 2022 Nobel Prize in literature on Oct 6. She is the first French female to win the prize. In the words of the Nobel
20、 committee, Ernaux was given the award for the courage and sharp insight of her writing.Having spent over five decades as a writer, the 82-year-old winner has published more than 20 books to her name, including Cleaned Out, Shame, a 2008 memoir called The Years and A Girls Story. Rather than conside
21、r herself a writer of fiction, Ernaux has used the term “an ethnologist（民族学家）of herself” to describe herself.Born in 1940 in a rural village in Normandy, France, Ernaux grew up in a working-class environment as her parents ran a combined grocery store and cafe. She worked as a teacher before becomin
22、g a full-time writer.According to CNN her “upbringing and experiences navigating adolescence and adulthood” inspire many of her works. For example the book Shame explores the theme of childhood trauma while A Girls Story follows a young womans coming of age in the 1950s.Though the matters Ernaux des
23、cribes in her books are serious and even sometimes heavy, they are always written in plain language. Ernaux described her style as “flat writing” through which she aims to tell her stories objectively, “unshaped by florid description or overwhelming emotions.” noted Fox News.“She writes about things
24、 that no one else writes about, for instance her jealousy, her experiences as an abandoned lover and so forth, I mean, really hard experiences,” Anders Olsson, chairman of the Nobel Committee for Literature said after the award announcement in Stockholm. He went on to say, “She gives words for these
25、 experiences that are very simple and striking. They are short books, but they are really moving”.24. What can we learn about Annie Ernaux from the text?（ ）A. She is the first French person to win the Nobel Prize.B. The Nobel committee described her as “an ethnologist of herself”.C. She was awarded
26、for the bravery and observations shown in her writing.D. She started working as a full-time writer in 1974.25. Where did she get inspiration for her works?（ ）A. Her students lives. B. The stories of guests to her cafe.C. The history of her hometown. D. Her personal experiences.26. Which of the follo

Her works are short and moving.CNew research led by the University of Colorado Boulder has found the engineering secrets behind what makes fish fins（鱼鳍） so strong yet flexible. The teams findings could one day lead to new desi
29、gns for airplane wings that change their shape with the push of a button. Francois Barthelat, senior author of the study, noted that fins can “do wonders” even though they dont contain a single muscle. “A fin is made of many rays, ” said Barthelat. “Each of those rays can be controlled individually
30、just like your fingers, but there are 20 or 30 rays in each fin.”Barthelat and his colleagues used a range of approaches, including computer simulations and 3D-printed materials, to dive deep into the secrets of these structures. They reported that the key to fish fins may lie in their unique design
31、. Each ray in a fin is made up of multiple segments（段）of a hard material that lie on top of much softer collagen（胶原）, making rays the perfect balance between flexibility and strength.He and his team decided to use computer simulations to examine the mechanical functions of fins. They discovered that
32、 those segments can make all the difference.“Pretend for a moment,” Barthelat explained, “that fish fins are entirely made up of collagen. They could bend easily, but wouldnt give fish much pulling force in the water. Rays made up of solid materials would have the opposite problemtheyd be too hard.”
33、 The researchers further tested the theory by using a 3-D printer to produce model fish fins made from plastic, some with hinges（铰链）built in and some without. The team found that the segmented design provided better combinations of strength and flexibility.“We like to pick up where the biologists an
34、d zoologists have left off, using our background in the mechanics of materials to further our understanding of the amazing characteristics of the natural world,” Barthelat said.28. Which of the following can describe the new research according to the first paragraph?（ ）A. Beneficial B. Traditional.
35、C. Typical. D. Commercial.29. Why are fingers mentioned in paragraph 2?（ ）A. To show the number of rays in a fish fin.B. To show rays of fish fins can work individually.C. To show the shape of rays in fish fins.D. To show rays of fish fins can do30. What has an important effect on the mechanical fun
36、ctions of fish fins?（ ）A. The amount of collagen.B. The combination of hard materials and collagen.C. The water fish live in.D. The muscle in fish fins.31. What may happen if fish fins are completely made of collagen according to the text?（ ）A. Fish cant bend. B. Fish cant live in the water.C. Fish
37、cant keep balance. D. Fish cant swim fast.DMaking a transition away from fossil fuels and towards low-carbon energy is the only way to keep our planet safe and habitable for future generations. That transition has thankfully begun, but it has a vast distance to go. And the kinds of changes that are
38、needed cost money. Development of new technology has always required investment.This applies to the generation of renewable energy, and to thecountlesslifestyle changes that follow from the shift away from coal, oil and gas. Electric cars and other transport are one example. Packaging to replace pla
39、stic is another. Resources are also required to protect societies from the harms caused by the global heating that has already happened, and to help them adjust to altered conditions.A new report presented at the Cop27 UN climate summit says thatabout $2tn (1.75tn) a year will be needed by 2030if de

These commitments are welcome, but insufficient.Carbon emissions, and the dangerously warming planet they have led to, are thebyproductof the way that the rich world developed. Since industrialisation,
43、 we have burned our way to wealth. Thankfully, we now know that there are alternatives to this destructive pattern.
