8、. Experienced teachers.B. Potential sponsors.C. Brilliant students.D. Devoted parents.BMost teenagers kill time playing video games, or surfing TikTok. Not William Gadoury, a 14-year-old from Matha, Quebec. William Gadoury has been crazy about the Mayans for most of his childhood, ever since his gra
9、ndparents bought him books about the civilization. What started as a hobby at age 12 snowballed into serious research, and he theorized that the locations of Mayan cities might correspond to stars in Mayan constellations(星座).Using ancient books, Gadoury analyzed 22 Mayan constellation maps and cover
10、ed the positions onto Google Earth images of the Yucatan Peninsula, which to this day is home to large local populations and some best-preserved architecture from Mayan culture. He would track the constellations from Google Earth using special sheets, covering them onto the position of Mayan cities
11、on a paper map. The teen was able to show that 117 Mayan cities matched up with the position of the stars, with the brightest stars representing bigger cities.But when Gadoury was working on the 23rd Mayan constellation, he found a conflict: three stars, but only two ancient cities on Google Earth.
12、The third star pointed to a location on the Mexico-Belize border. However, the area was covered with thick jungle, leaving Gadoury stuck.Luckily, he asked NASA for images from their RADARSAT-2 satellite. Indeed, there was a square, man-made-looking structure in the heavy forest. Gadoury then learned
13、 a fire had swept across the region, thinning out the grass cover. He found images from the agency, and eventually concluded that there was indeed a city there.Gadourys findings eventually took him into the jungle in 2022 to search on foot, along with scientist Francisco Bell. The team discovered a
14、farming village deep in the Mexican jungle, which showed the “backbone” of the Mayas long-term success, which was down to their ability to work the land and support large cities.4.

17、hone product. It works the same as any other smartphone, but when dropped, those cracks that appear after an annoying fall slowly begin to fade away, and the phone magically repairs itself、A team of researchers led by chemistry professor Takuzo Aida have found a way to create self-repairing plastics
18、 that can be used in smartphones, cars and other products. But their new plastics wont only be used to create unbreakable products, but also help the fight against growing wastes harming the planet.91% of plastic is non-recyclable and filling Earth with waste. The increasing plastic in landfills is
19、a growing concern due to its negative environmental impact. In 2019 about only9% of plastics were recycled globally, leading Japanese scientists to seek to find plastic that can start its own formation or self-repair.The self-repairing plastics are made by adding a tiny amount of a specialized subst
20、ance into ordinary plastic to hold the monomers(单体) together by hydrogen bonds(氢键). When the new plastic is broken down by heat, instead of burning to waste, the hydrogen bonds mix and allow for the formation of special shaped monomers to create a foundation for more monomers to layer on and rebuild
21、 itself. The team found that their self-healing plastic was able to automatically repair at room temperature over an hour to regain its durability.The teams work suggests great prospects for the future of plastic. “The technique could lead to the development of a made-to-last plastic that does not n
22、eed to be recycled,” lead professor Aida said at the conference, “and can one day be in products from smartphones to cars and even buildings.”8. What is the special feature of the new plastics?A.

24、c?A. Doubtful.B. Favorable.C. Disapproving.D. Unconcerned.DRadiocarbon dating has revealed two fake(伪造的) paintings in Franceprobably the first time the technique has been used in a police investigation. The paintings were supposedly works from around the early twentieth century. But a team led by sc
25、ientist Lucile Beck at the University of Paris-Saclay dated them to sometime within the past 70 years.The use of radiocarbon dating is gaining popularity, thanks to advances that require smaller samples than ever before. Removing tinier samples from artwork is becoming more palatable to museums and
26、owners of paintings. If there is a chance that a painting is genuineand therefore valuablethey dont want the collection of larger samples to damage it.All living things take in carbon, including radioactive carbon-14, from the atmosphere and from food. When a plant commonly used to make oil painting
27、 cloth dies, the carbon-14 that it contained continues to fall off. Radiocarbon dating measures whats left to estimate the time thats passed, says Mariaelena Fedi, a physicist at the National Institute for Nuclear Physics in Florence, Italy.Atomic-bomb(原子弹) testing, which began in the 1940s and took
28、 off in the 1950s, quickly increased the amount of carbon-l4 in the atmosphere.Carbon-l4 peaked around 1964and went down after a partial ban on nuclear tests. Researchers can easily identify materials containing modern bomb-produced radiocarbon because their carbon-14 concentrations are higher than
29、pre-1950s levels. Becks team tested its samples to see whether they bore the feature of that bomb-produced radioactive carbon-14.The canvas fiber from the paintings clearly contained carbon from either the mid-1950sor after the year 2000, the researchers reported. Beck acknowledged that, ideally, th
30、e team would do further chemical analysis to support its findings, but the researchers were limited by the tight time.12. What does the underlined word “palatable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Impressive. B. Acceptable.C. Expensive.D. Difficult.13. How does radiocarbon dating work?A. By analyzing
31、 samples from artwork.B. By removing the smaller samples.C. By measuring the carbon-14 left.D. By testing the carbon in the sample.14. What can we learn about atomic-bomb testing in Paragraph 4?A. It produces more carbon-14.B. It helps identify fake paintings.C. it reduces carbon concentration.D. It

33、处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What is heritage? The word can be difficult to define. Heritage is always something that is passed down by families or other groups for many years._ 16 It can also be the customs, traditions, and values shared by groups of people. One way to think about heritage is to break it dow
34、n into three groups. These are the tangible(有形的), the natural, and the intangible.17 It can include many human-made objects that hold cultural value. Some examples are national monuments and works of art. Many ancient sites are also part of this group. On a smaller scale, a family home can be part o

One example is the Nile River._ 18 Efforts to protect natural heritage are key in many cultures.The intangible group includes any part
36、of cultural heritage that you cant feel through touch. Maybe youve read about forms of dance, like Flamenco dancing. You might know about the music of Mariachi Bands or holidays like Eid. These are all examples of intangible heritage. 19 Exploring your own heritage can be fun. It can help you learn
37、about yourself, your family, and your ancestors. But its also important to learn about the heritage of others. 20 It can also lead you to find things you may have in common with others!A. They are treasures that can be touched.B. What tangible items can be part of heritage?C. However, heritage isnt
38、limited to concrete objects.D. Languages, holidays and customs also make the list.E. Therefore, its difficult to protect them from fading away.F. Doing so can help you build a stronger understanding of other cultures.G. It has been part of cultural heritage in many African nations for centuries.第二部分
