17、m.C(2022河北保定高三一模)Extremely energetic light from space is an unexplained wonder.Scientists dont know where that light comes from,exactly.And now astronomers have spotted this light,called gamma(伽马) rays,at higher energies than ever before.You cant see gamma rays with your eyes.They are much more ener
18、getic than the light that we can see.So,you need a fancy detector to spot them.The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) is an experiment in China.It searches for extremely high energy gamma rays.Scientists have spotted 12 gamma-ray hot spots.These are parts of the sky from which the g
19、amma rays are sent out.Those hot spots show that our galaxythe Milky Way,has powerful particle accelerators(加速器).But those particle accelerators arent made by humans.Instead,they come from violent events in the universe.They might be exploding stars,for example.Such violent events make electric and
20、magnetic fields,which can speed up protons(质子) and electrons.Those fast particles can then produce gamma rays with a lot of energy.That can happen when protons interact with other matter in space,for example.Scientists arent sure what could produce gamma rays with the extreme energies observed.But t
21、he new observations point to two possibilities.One hot spot was associated with the Crab Nebula.Thats the remains of an exploded star.Another possible source was the Cygnus Cocoon.Thats a region where massive stars are forming.The stars send out intense winds in the process.LHAASO is located on Haiz
22、i Mountain in Chinas Sichuan Province.It is not yet fully operational.Its due to be completed later this year.Then,it could find even more gamma rays.8.What can we learn about gamma rays?A.They are invisible.B.They are often ignored.C.They contain little energy.D.They are used to explore universe.9.

25、 take up arms (or at least keyboards) to defend their companies and to be sure,science needs defenders these days.But in their passion to fight back against vaccine(疫苗) rejection and other forms of science denial(否定),some scientists say things that just arent true.One popular move is to insist that
26、science is right and that once we discover the truth about the world,we are done.Anyone who denies such truths (they suggest) is stupid or ignorant.Even a modest familiarity with the history of science offers many examples of matters that scientists thought they had decided,only to discover that the
27、y needed to be reconsidered.Some familiar examples are Earth as the center of the universe,the absolute nature of time and space,the stability of continents,and the cause of infectious diseases.Science is a process of learning and discovery,and sometimes we learn that what we thought was right is ac
28、tually wrong.Science can also be understood as an institution (or better,a set of institutions) that promotes this work.To say that science is “true” or “permanent” is like saying that “marriage is permanent”.At best,its a bit off-key.Marriage today is adapted to a world that is very different from
29、what it was in the 16th or 18th century,so are most of our “laws” of nature.They are at best,true for now or true until proven otherwise.In my view,the biggest mistake scientists make is to claim that this is all somehow simple and therefore to imply that anyone who doesnt get it is dumb(愚蠢的).Yet sc
30、ience is not simple,and neither is the natural world where the greatest challenge of science communication lies.Scientific theories are not perfect copies of reality,but we have good reasons to believe that they capture(捕获) significant elements of it.And experience reminds us that when we ignore rea
31、lity,it sooner or later comes back to bite us.12.What can we learn from paragraphs 1 and 2?A.What scientists said is absolutely trustworthy.B.Scientific findings call for further consideration.C.Its unwise to deny some truths scientists have found.D.Social common sense contributes to discovering a s
32、cientific theory.13.Why does the author compare science to marriage?A.Neither science nor marriage is reliable.B.Both science and marriage are true and permanent.C.Neither science nor marriage remains the same all the time.D.Both science and marriage can help us tell right from wrong.14.What can we
33、know about scientific findings?A.They are always permanent.B.They can be proven by experiments.C.We should be ready for their changes.D.Different scientific methods reach more scientific findings.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Are Scientists Dependable?B.Is Science Ac
34、tually “Right”?C.Does Truth Really Function?D.Whats the Scientific Method?.七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)(2022山东济宁高三第三次模拟)Why do visitors go to museums?I often ask this question to those who have ever come to a museum.16 As an artist and part of the educational staff at the Walker Art Center,I hope to di
35、g into visitors need so that we could tailor museum experiences to create more successful visitor experiences.Here is my observation of each motivational identity and characterization of different types of visitors.ProfessionalsThis category includes teachers,educators,museum professionals,artists,a
36、nd people in related fields.17 For example,a photographer may attend with the goal in mind to take pictures or to learn about photography through exhibits.An art educator may be interested in the art to broaden the knowledge of his own field or to plan a lesson.Explorers18 If you ask them if they li
37、ke art they will say “yes”;but if you ask them if they come for something in particular,they will probably say “no”.They do not have concrete learning goals but they like to know new things.They may or may not know how to use the museum.Experience SeekersAn experience seeker is a person who is check
38、ing off a list of landmarks to visit,whether personal or as a tourist.19 They simply want to do “what youre supposed to see in that city or area”.This type of visitors may need to see the museums highlights to feel satisfied.FacilitatorsFacilitators come because of someone else.They are perhaps brin
39、ging a friend or a group of peoplepossibly the children or studentsbecause they think the visit would benefit others,not out of a personal need.20A.They want to see what is typical of that place.B.Their goals may range by their particular roles.C.There are different reasons for visitors coming here.
40、D.You may wonder why Im interested in this question.E.Others will naturally pay a visit to museums regularly.F.Their personal need is to make a good experience for others.G.They come because attending museums satisfies their curiosity.50分阅读限时满分练(四).【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了西安的四个旅游胜地古城墙、大雁塔、陕西历史博物馆和穆斯林区
