8、 suffering from brain cancer. Along with typical math and science, throughout the year, Mrs. Brown shared stories with us about people in Be Head Strong who had overcome some tough and unfair battles. Mrs. Brown never showed any sadness or confusion toward the disease. She instead spoke only with wo
9、rds of determination to find a cure. Whether news from Be Head Strong was good or bad, she always looked at the situation as an opportunity to improve and do more.My parents taught me from a very young age that making wise choices with my money is important. I would always set aside most of my $ 2.5
10、0-a-week allowance. By the end of the school year, I had saved over one hundred dollars, $ 131.30 to be exact. One day was wondering what to do with it. I did not feel like any game or toy was worth the time I had spent saving. I thought about the stories Mrs. Brown told us, then I decided that was
11、where I wanted my money to go. As the last day of school approached, my mom helped me wrap the heart-shaped box full of dollars and coins. After all the other kids had left on the last day of school, I handed Mrs. Brown the present. As she opened it, I told her that I wanted the money to go to Be He

17、e supports under the five-story building, according to Lan Wuji, chief technical supervisor of the project.The supports act like robotic legs. Theyre split into two groups which in turns rise up and down, like the human step. The sensors （感应器）help control how the building moves forward, said Lan.In
18、recent years, Chinas rapid modernization has seen many historic buildings destroyed to clear land for skyscrapers and office buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage （遗产）loss as a result of destruction across the country. It is true Shanghai has been Chinas most
19、 progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous bund district and 19th-century “shikumen”（or “stone gate”） houses in the repaired Xintiandi neighborhood has offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a
20、 track record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, which was then considered to be Shanghais most complex relocation project to date. The Lagena Primary School, which weighs 7, 600 tons, faced a new challenge-its T-shaped, while previou

24、 move.DThe move of the primary school is Shanghais most complex relocation project.11Where does the passage probably come from?AA news report.BA science review.CA travel magazine.DA geography book.When most people think of rodents(啮齿动物), they either think of pests like mice and rats, or cute animals
25、, like guinea pigs or squirrels. What does not usually come to mind is the grass-chewing, water-loving, dog- sized capybara (水豚). Weighing up to 66 kilograms, the capybara is the worlds largest rodent. And that might be the least interesting thing about this wonderful animal.Native to South America,
26、 capybaras are found in grasslands near lakes or rivers. They are excellent swimmers and spend much of their time in the water. They have webs between their toes to help them swim even better. Moreover, the position of their eyes, ears, and noses on the tops of their heads helps them fully dive in t
27、he water to hide from predators (捕食者). They love the water, and they can even sleep underwater, with only their noses above the surface.Like many other rodents, capybaras live in large social groups. Whats unusual, however, is how friendly capybaras are with other animal species. The internet is ful
28、l of images showing smaller animals sitting on capybaras. But despite these giant rodents social natures and cuteness, they dont make very good pets. They can be territorial(有地盘意识的) with larger animals, and they have been known to bite humans when they feel threatened.Capybaras continue to lose some
29、 of their cuteness when one takes a look at their diet. Their main food is grass, but like many grass-eating animals, they are not able to fully take in their meal the first time it passes through their digestive system(消化系统). So, capybaras frequently eat their own droppings to get additional nutrie
30、nts from previous meals. There are lots of reasons to love capybaras, but this probably isnt one of them.12According to this passage, what is special about capybaras among rodents?ATheir size.BTheir fur.CTheir teeth.DTheir living waters.13In what unusual way do capybaras hide from their enemies?AThe
31、ir fur mixes with their environment.BThey live in large groups to hide each individual.CThey stand still in very tall grass.DThey keep most of their bodies under the water.14Why would a capybara NOT make a good pet?AThey need a lot of water to play in.BThey may hurt humans when threatened.CTheir foo
32、d is too expensive to afford.DThey carry diseases that are dangerous to humans.15What does the author say about the capybaras diet?ATheir diet is especially friendly to the environment.BCapybaras become less cute when it comes to their diet.CCapybaras keep a balanced diet to get additional nutrients
33、.DTheir diet consists of many things, including grasses and other animals waste.四川省眉山市2020-2021学年高一上学期期末考试英语试题四、阅读理解BeijingChengdu TrainAltogether about 5 pairs of trains are running between Beijing and Chengdu at present.

39、.It all started because Lynn and her two teenage children needed to get from Georgia to Alaska, where Lynns husband, an American officer, is stationed (驻扎). Lynn packed up all their belongings, bought a 4x4 truck, and started a cross-country family adventure. The first 3,000 miles of the trip went w
40、ell.The farther north they traveled, the worse the weather got. Lynn, who was raised in the South, met her first winter white-out conditions. Then she used up windscreen wiping fluid. Slush (雪泥) covered her windows and she couldnt see to drive. Even scarier her tires seemed to be sliding on the grou
41、nd.After changing the summer tires at a tire store, Lynn decided to give up driving. She phoned her husband and asked if he could just come and get them where they were. Her husband was worried but he wasnt legally able to get them himself. Then the family had to find a motel and went to bed. Thats
42、when the kind people there put out a request on Facebook for someone to drive them the last 1,056 miles to the border.Gary Bath was at home when he saw his friends post about the trapped family. After watching the post for a while and seeing no one was able to help, he and his wife made the decision
43、 that he would drive them the whole way to the border.Both families met over the Internet, and when they decided they were all comfortable with the plan, the Baths drove to meet the family at the motel. It took Gary two days to drive them to a border checkpoint (边防关卡) where the family was greeted by
44、 Lynns husband and the new friends parted ways.24Why did the American family set off for Alaska?ATo enjoy the beautiful scenery.BTo visit an old friend.CTo have an adventure.DTo have a family reunion.25What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?AThe birth place of Lynn.BThe difficulties Lynn got into.C

We all have big plans for our futures and believe there is a dream job waiting for us one that will pay well and give great job satisfact
47、ion. But how realistic is that?Today, in the UK at least, young people are being warned that some of their career hopes and dreams dont match the types of jobs available. Research by the charity Education and Employers suggests five times as many 17 and 18 year-olds in the UK want to work in art, cu
48、lture, entertainment and sport than there are jobs.The excitement of working in these employment sectors (部门) is obviously an attraction. But those looking for these types of job will be disappointed. Thats what the report, Disconnected: Career ambitions and jobs in the UK, says. Writing about this
49、for the BBC, Katherine Sellgren points out that although young people are keen to work in art, entertainment, culture and sport, the economy is unlikely to need them all. At the same time, there is a shortfall of young people wanting to work in careers such as catering and retail(零售).Previous resear
50、ch about the career ambitions of young people by the Office for National Statistics also found a “reality gap” between their dreams and the sometimes disappointing truth by the time they reached their early to late-20s. Apart from those who aimed to go into teaching, fewer than one in 50 were in the
51、 jobs they had wanted such as a doctor, vet, firefighter or actor. Most were working as sales assistants, careers or in sales and marketing.Although its good to have ambitions, the aims of young people need to be realistic. This latest report suggests that children need to be made more aware of a wi
52、der variety of occupations at a younger age.It also calls for improved career advice in secondary schools. A spokeswoman for the Department for Work and Pensions told the BBC that “early careers advice can help young people set out on the right path to the job that channels their interests and unloc
53、ks their potential.”28Which employment sector in the UK needs more people to work in?ASport.BService industry.CArt & culture.DEntertainment.29The underlined phrase “ reality gap ” in Paragraph 4 refers to the difference between .Aambition and realityBmales and femalesCtheory and practiceDthe past an

55、istic.31What can be a suitable title for the text?AUnemployment Problems in BritainBYoung Peoples Lifestyles in BritainCTips for Finding Dream Jobs in BritainDUnrealistic Career Ambitions in BritainNew observations of the Moon show that lunar water may be more accessible than originally thought. The
56、 new data is particularly exciting for NASA, which hopes to make use of the Moons resources especially water ice existing in the soil to help future astronauts live and work on the lunar surface.In one study, researchers discovered water directly on the lunar surface, finding the molecule(分子) on are
57、as of the Moon lighted by the Sun. A second study speculates （推测）that water ice might be trapped in tiny areas or small holes spread all over the Moons surface, making water more abundant (大量的) and more accessible than we could have imagined. The two studies were published in the journal Nature.This
58、 isnt the first time water has been discovered on the Moon. But the only water weve been able to find until now is really difficult to reach. It seems to be primarily located in large holes at the lunar south pole that are in continuous shadow. The freezing holes are dangerously cold possibly reachi
59、ng -400 making them almost impossible to access with modern technology.The research published today raises the possibility that astronauts can find water in other areas of the Moon that are far less deadly. “If we find that its abundant enough in certain locations, it would be easier to access versu
60、s going into these very cold, very dark places,” Casey Honniball, an expert at NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center and lead author on one of the studies, tells The Verge.It seems to be good news for NASABut there are still a lot of unknowns related to this research. Though the first study discovered w
61、ater, the researchers didnt find a lot. Besides, if the water is existing in the lunar dirt as expected, its going to take a lot of work to get it. “The method to get that water would be to melt the glass, so that the water can be released,” Honniball says. “This is a difficult process, compared to
62、some other methods.”32Where can we read about the new studies？AFrom NASABIn The Verge.CFrom Space Flight Center.DIn the journal Nature.33What can we learn from Paragraph 3?AThe only water found is located on areas lighted by the Sun.BThe deadly cold situation stops people from accessing the holes.CI
63、t is the first time that people have found water on the Moon.DIt can reach a temperature of -400 in the holes.34What is the difficulty when we get the water according to Honniball?AGreat efforts will be needed to melt the glass.BThere is not enough water on the Moon.CWe dont know where to find the w

She chose the latter, giving Dad the keyword to her TikTok, and the Internet is so appreciative.Maddis dad began to take over her social media early in Novembe
73、r, so her followers could expect “some amazing posts, photos and short videos from her dad”. On November 11, Larry, Maddis dad, had already begun his funny performance to embarrass his teen daughter, by posting a selfie(自拍), titled “Felt cute. Might delete later”. But that was only the beginning, an

I have

76、riends and social media followers were attracted.Over the two weeks, Madddis Instagram fans jumped from around 2,700 to 12,700, at the time of this writing, so she should probably thank her dad for the punishment.

Eduard Schmieder is the programs conductor and musical director. Schmieder and his wife started the program in 1997 with help from the great v
81、iolinist Yehudi Menuhin.This year, the festival concentrates on music from the 1600s to the 1900s and the musicians come from 19 countries, including Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Israel and Italy, Schmieder notes some of the musicians are from countries that are at war with each other. And they are sitti
82、ng next to each other, and they become friends. He says through their music and friendship, they are making the world more peaceful. Also, cello (大提琴) player Francisco Vila from Ecuador said, “Music is our common language, having no geographic boundaries.” Vila added that the musicians get to know m
83、ore about each other as they perform great music. “Its interesting to see where we intersect (相交) and how many things we have in common. And also the music world is quite small, so youre only one person away from knowing everyone else.”The musicians taking part in the program are of ages from their
84、late teens to their 30s. Schmieder said they include winners of major music competitions. Peter Rainer is a violin player from Germany. He serves as concertmaster, the link between the musicians and conductor.“The experience is a cultural as well as a musical exchange,” said Russian violinist Semyo

88、tware to teach a human-like robotic hand new skills. The discovery could one day make it less expensive to train robots to do things that are easy for humans to do. The researchers are with OpenAI, a nonprofit artificial intelligence research group started in 2015.OpenAI researchers announced last w
89、eek that they had taught a robotic hand to recognize different qualities of a colorful object The object was a small, six-sided box with different numbers and colors on each side. The researchers wanted the robotic hand to show them a specific side of the box. The machine was able to turn the box ar
90、ound until the desired side was shown.The act may seem simple. But it shows a big improvement in how the machine learned to do what the researchers were asking of it.All the learning happened inside a software-based re-creation of the real world, or a simulation. The machine was then able to bring e
91、verything it had learned into the physical world. That jump helps solve what had been a big problem for robotic hands.Ken Goldberg is a robotics professor in University of California Berkeley. He did not join in the OpenAI research. But he did review the work released in late July. He called it “an
92、important result” in getting closer to the goal of having self-taught machines.Lilian Weng is a member of the technical team at OpenAI who worked on the research.

He realised such a place didnt exist.So he decided to build a theme park where people with and without special needs could play. The p
