           My name is Mae Jemison. When I was a little girl,I was very 21 (interest) in space and science. I dreamed of 22 (travel) to outer space one day. However,it wasn’t a dream that could 23 (easy) come true back then. So when I told others about my dream,I was laughed 24 by them. But I believed that my dream 25 (come) true one day.

           Though many people questioned my interest in science,I followed my passion. I went on to attend Stanford University to study engineering. But it was really hard for a woman to become 26 astronaut after I graduated from university. I became a doctor and then joined the Peace Corps to help provide health services for people in Africa.

           In Africa I never forgot my childhood dream. While I was working there,I contacted NASA and applied for their astronaut program. Luckily,I 27 (accept) into the space program. In 1992, I traveled into outer space on the Space Shuttle Endeavor. My dream finally came true.

          Now I focus on inspiring children 28 (explore) , ask questions,try new ways of doing things,take chances,follow 29 (they) dreams and study science.

           Do you have a dream? 30 you do,don't give it up!

21. interested?疾樵~性轉(zhuǎn)換。be inter呼ed in sth.意為“對(duì)某事感興趣”。

22. traveling?疾榉侵^.語動(dòng)詞。dream of doing sth.意為“夢(mèng)想做某事”。

23. easily?疾樵~性轉(zhuǎn)換。修飾短語動(dòng)詞come true,故用easy的副詞形式。

24. at?疾楣潭ǘ陶Z。laugh at sb.意為“嘲笑某; 人”。

25. would come?疾闀r(shí)態(tài)。主句是一般過去時(shí),從句中的時(shí)間狀語one day表將來,故用一般過去將來時(shí)。

26. an。考查冠詞。作者想成為一名宇航員,且 astronaut以元音音節(jié)開頭,故用不定冠詞an。

27. was accepted。考查時(shí)態(tài)和語態(tài)。I是accept動(dòng)作的承受者,且設(shè)空處講述過去發(fā)生的某個(gè)動(dòng)作, 故用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)。

28. to explore?疾榉侵^語動(dòng)詞。inspire sb. to do sth.意為“鼓勵(lì)某人去做某事”。

29. their。考查代詞。修飾名詞dreams ,故用形容詞 性物主代詞。

30. If。考查連詞。根據(jù)前后語境可知,設(shè)空處需要用If引導(dǎo)條件狀語從句,表示“如果……”。

                                C

                            ★★★

          A study conducted in the Svalbard Archipelago of;Norway showed the first recorded case of polar bears seeking out white-beaked dolphins(白喙斑紋海豚) for prey(獵物) . Warming waters have allowed the dolphins to travel north to an area they would normally avoid until summertime. “It is likely that new species are appearing in the diet of polar bears due to climate change because new species are finding their way north,” study author Jon Aars said.

          Arctic waters have warmed at a rate twice that of southern waters,putting the ice-loving bears in trouble. Polar bears typically sit on large pieces of ice to hunt swimming seals,but without the platform of ice to sit on,the bears have to look elsewhere for food. Two ice-free winters attracted the dolphins into the Arctic region,where their food has also shown up thanks to warm water. But a sudden influx (匯集)of ice trapped the dolphins,making them easy prey for hungry plar bears.

          The scientists from the Norwegian Polar Institute first discovered this eating habit in April,2014 and documented another five cases in the following year. Most of the bears appeased well-fed,although one was visibly thin and found covering a dead dolphin with ice as a means to hide his food source from other animals —another strategy that scientists had not yet seen before.

         It' s unlikely that there are enough dolphins to feed the large population of polar bears. And as the bears were only able to hunt the dolphins because of a sudden storm,their consumption could be a fluke(使幸) .

         Polar bears living in Canada and Alaska have been found traveling north to live in the icy regions they need,but Svalbard is about as far north as it gets before the water becomes too deep to serve as a livable habitat,leaving the bears with nowhere else to go.

9. What does Jon Aars think is to blame for polar bears' eating dolphins?

   A. Loss of habitat:    B. No other prey.

   C. Warmer climate.      D. Shorter summertime.

10. What do we learn about today's  polar bears from Paragraph 2 ?

   A. They fmd it harder to hunt seals.

   B. They have more food than before.

   C. They face more competitors than before.

   D. They are troubled by a sudden influx of ice.

11. It is very rare for a polar bear to.

   A. appear well-fed

   B. get nothing to eat

   C. hide food from other animals

   D. share food with other polar bears

12. After polar bears reach Svalbard,they .

   A. get no dolphins to eat

   B. cannot go any further northward

   C. hardly want to go anywhere else

   D. make it a comfortable livable habitat

                           ★★★☆☆

           Tourists and animal lovers hoping to see a bear in Sequoia National Park this fall probably stand a better chance of spotting one in this tiny town at the park’s  entrance. Three Rivers is crawling with hungry bears driven down from the mountains by drought in search of food to fatten up for winter. Everyone seems to have photos of the creatures on their phones.

           There's no doubt a bear invasion is going on in this town of 2 ,200 that is home to a mix of park employees,businessmen, artists and so on. It is also a place for retirement for Hollywood types that include Anjelica Huston and William Shatner. Most seem delighted by the visiting black bears.

           The four-year drought has destroyed the berry crop in the Sierra Nevada and led to fewer flcwws (橡子),forcing the bears into the valleys carved by the branches of the Kaweah River that give this town its name.

           Bears have climbed on roofs for acoms and one was found exploring a bathroom under restoration in a house.A bear tore apart the outer walls of a resident's pump house and a music studio to get at acoms.

           The Kaweah Commonwealth reported that bears have been slaughtered,but game wardens (野生動(dòng)物保把區(qū)的管理員) said it was a lie because of a lack of evidence,such as names of suspects,vehicle descriptions and dead bears. The account,however,has caused conflict between nature lovers and those who think it's unbelievable. I'm upset and sad,and I just question,‘Why?”,said Kathleen McCleary. “I don't see any reason to shoot them."

13. Bears have come down from the mountains because.

   A. the park doesn't feed them

   B. they want to seek for water

   C. they lack food resources there

   D. they need a warm place for winter

14. What does the underlined word ^slaughtered^ in the last paragraph probably mean?

   A. Defeated. B. Limited.

   G. Raised.   D. Killed.

15. The author writes the text mainly to .

   A. show where to find bears

   B. call on people to protect bears

   C. introduce a bear invasion in a town

   D. explain how to solve the problem of bears

16. The text probably comes from.

   A. a lesson plan         B. a news report

                                      A 

          Prashant Mandal shares a small house with his wife and four kids,and survives on less than $2 a day. Yet,despite Mandal' s  modest income,he spends 20 percent of his income on solar energy,an expenditure (支出) which he says is key to helping his children to study.

          Across the globe,about 1. 2  billion people live without electricity. Such limitations are not only inconvenient,but also put people in low-income countries at greater risk of having serious health conditions. People living without electricity typically rely on kerosene lamps,and other harmful light sources,which can lead to bums,injuries,poisoning and other risks.

          Realizing the need for a more efficient energy source,a lot of companies have developed business models that enable poor people to purchase solar energy.

          SimpaNetworks,which focuses its efforts on rural India,is one such company that's found a way to make solar energy affordable and accessible to people in need. Customers are charged a small down payment for a high-quality solar system. Then,through its “progressive purchase^ model,they pay in advance for a designated (指定的) amount of energy consumption. Each payment counts toward the final purchase price.

          A number of other companies have found ways to get solar energy into the hands,anci homes of people who typically can’t  afford electricity. MPOWER D. a New ork-based company,invented an (充氣式的) solar light in 2012 that is powered by the sun,and is also able to store solar energy.

          “Energy poverty is solvable if we all work together,” says John Salzinger,MPOWERD’s  co-founder. “Every single consumer purchase helps us reduce costs,and then we pass those savings on to those who need affordable light most. We automatically enable our customers to help others,while helping the environment,by simply making a purchase."

  1. Why does the author mention Prashant Mandal in Paragraph 1 ?

   A. To show that electricity is precioub.

   B. To bring up the topic of the text.

   C. To introduce his poor family.

   D. To tell an interesting story.

2. What can we infer from Paragraph 2 ?

   A. Kerosene lamps are healthy light sources.

   B. There are few people living without electricity.

   C. Poor countries are at greater risk of spreading .

diseases. 

   D. People living without electricity may face serious risks.

3. Paragraph 4  mainly tells us .

   A. how customers pay for SimpaNetworks solar

   B. how impaNetworks invented the inflatable solar

   C. how customers use electricity in rural India 

   D. how solar system works in rural India 

4. How does John Salzinger feel about energy poverty?

   A. Uncaring.     B. Surprising.

   C. Disappointed. D. Optimistic.
