【題目】【原創(chuàng)】There are no signs of little green men on Mars. But new discoveries offer a bit more hope that some form of life existed there in the past --- and perhaps is still there in the present. Methane gas(甲烷) and water have been found on the Red Plane. The presence of both suggests at least the possibility of life.
According to a new report in the journal, Science, the Mars rover, Curiosity, has detected spikes of methane in the Martian atmosphere. This gas is also found in the Earth’s atmosphere, and comes from animal and plant life, as well as from the environment itself. If there’s methane in Mar’s atmosphere, where is it coming from? Scientists aren’t sure. But it marks a big change. In September 2013, Curiosity found almost no traces of methane in the Martian air. Just weeks later, however, the rover picked up a whiff of(一點點) the gas.
The scientists don’t know whether the methane spikes are caused by some form of biological matter or by the geology of the planet. Christopher Chyba, a professor of astrophysics and international affairs at Princeton, says it’s best not to be too hopeful about biology on the Red Planet. “Hopes for biology on Mars have had a way of disappearing once Martian chemistry has been better understood,” he says. “But figuring out what’s responsible for the methane is clearly a key astrobiological objective --- whatever the answer turns out to be.”
The discovery of water on Mars is nothing new. For decades, scientists have had evidence that it flowed across the surface of the planet billions of years ago. But according to another new report in Science, while the surface water on Mars seems to be long gone, there’s a lot more of it left than most of people realize.
This report is also based on findings from Curiosity. Paul Mahaffy, of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, led the study. He says there is enough water on Mars “to cover the surface to a depth of about 165 feet.”
It is not easy to reach this water. Most of it is locked up in ice at the planet’s poles.
【1】Why do scientists think there might be life on Mars?
A. Because the Mars rover has detected water on the planet.
B. Because there is evidence that little green men exist on the planet.
C. Because the Mars rover has found some plants on the planet.
D. Because both methane and water have been found on the planet.
【2】What is the attitude of professor Christopher Chyba towards life on Mars?
A. Optimistic B. Negative
C. Neutral D. Indifferent
【3】The water on Mars _______________.
A. still flows on its surface
B. covers the whole planet
C. is locked up in ice at the planet’s poles
D. only existed on it billions of years ago
【4】In which column of a website can we read this text?
A. Culture B. Entertainment
C. Science D. Education

【題目】“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回聲). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.
We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.
The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.
But now I dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?
In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.
All the lights were off except fathers.
Dad was always like this. Maybe he didnt know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.
This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on. Am I wrong? I whispered, maybe With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love----its second to none.

A. Perhaps the father was getting older and older.

【題目】“Don't worry if you have problems!” It is easy to say until you are in the midst of a really big one. The only people who don't have troubles are gathered in little neighborhoods. Most communities have at least one. We call them cemeteries. If you're breathing, you have difficulties. It's the way of life. And believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be good for you! Let me explain.
Maybe you have heard the Great Barrier Reef, stretching some 1,800 miles from New Guinea to Australia. Tour guides regularly take visitors to view the reef.
On one tour, a traveler asked the guide an interesting question. "I notice that the lagoon (瀉湖) side of the reef looks pale and lifeless, while the ocean side is vibrant and colorful," the traveler observed. Why is this?
The guide gave an interesting answer, "The coral around the lagoon side is in still water, with no challenge for its survival. It dies early. The coral on the ocean side is constantly being tested by wind, waves and storms. It has to fight for its survival every day. As it is challenged and tested, it changes and adapts. It grows healthy. It grows strong. And it reproduces."
Then he added, “That's the way it is with every living organism.”
That's how it is with people. Challenged and tested, we come alive! Like coral pounded by the sea, we grow. Physical demands can cause us to grow stronger. Mental and emotional stress can produce tough-mindedness and resiliency. Spiritual testing can produce strength of character and faithfulness. So, you have problems? No problem! Just tell yourself, "There I grow again!"
Remember: A smooth sea never made a skilled mariner.
【1】Who has no problems according to the passage?
A. The persons who are very famous.
B. The persons who have much money.
C. The persons who have been born.
D. The persons who are living in the cemeteries.
【2】In the writer's opinion, ________.
A. problems bring us much trouble
B. problems have two sides, good or bad
C. we should try to stay away from any trouble
D. the fewer things we do, the less trouble we'll meet
【3】The reason why lagoon side of the reef has no life is _______.
A. it hasn't got any sunlight
B. it has less energy than others
C. it never faces any challenge and tests
D. it has no work to do every day
【4】After reading this passage, we should ________.
A. regard any problem as challenge
B. learn from the lagoon side
C. worry your problem
D. enter into cemeteries

【題目】Woman Uses Daughter's Key to "Steal" Car
Charlie Vansant, a college student of Athens, Ohio, who reported that his car was stolen, got a surprise when he learned a woman had mistaken it for her daughter's car and taken it — using her key.
Kate Anderson became an accidental car thief when picking up her daughter's car near an Ohio University building last week. Anderson spotted the Toyota Camry(豐田凱美瑞)and used her daughter's key to unlock the car, start the engine and drive home — without realizing that the car wasn't her daughter's.
When Charlie Vansant left class a short time later, he found only an empty parking spot. He first assumed the car had been towed, but when the police couldn't find a record of it, they took a theft report.
The morning after Anderson took the car, her daughter discovered the Camry in the driveway wasn't hers. Anderson said she was able to find Vansant's name on paperwork in the glove compartment and look up his phone number on the website for the university.
When Anderson told Charlie the car was in her driveway, "It sounded really suspicious at first, as she wanted to hold the thing for ransom (贖金) , ” said Vansant. He eventually went to the house with a police officer, where he was reunited with his car. According to the police report, the case was closed "because of mistaken car identity", and Anderson wasn't charged.
Vansant seemed to blame the car company more than the "thief". "Her key fit not only my lock, but my ignition(點火裝置)as well — so high-five for Toyota, I guess." he said.
【1】What does the underlined word "towed" mean in paragraph 3?
A. removed. B. damaged.
C. stolen. D. sold.
【2】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Mrs. Anderson's daughter discovered the car her mother drove was not hers.
B. Mrs. Anderson stole Charlie's car at the request of her daughter.
C. Charlie had thought he had to give Anderson money to get his car back.
D. Mrs. Anderson used her daughter's key to unlock Charlie's car and drive home.
【3】What does Charlie mean by "high-five for Toyota"?
A. He is blaming Toyota for the poor quality of car keys.
B. He should thank Toyota for returning his car.
C. He wants to celebrate with Toyota for getting his car back.
D. He thinks highly of Toyota for producing large quantities of cars.
【4】What is likely to happen next according to the passage?
A. Mrs. Anderson was charged with stealing a car.
B. Charlie blamed Mrs. Anderson for mistakenly taking his car.
C. Charlie would ask the Toyota Company to give him an explanation.
D. The Toyota Company would give Charlie a new car as compensation.
