A recently discovered asteroid (小行星) has a chance of hitting the earth on Valentine's Day in 2046. It was discovered on Feb.26 at an observatory in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile.While the thought of an asteroid hitting the earth may sound concerning, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) says people shouldn't be worried.The asteroid has an estimated diameter of around 160 feet, which is about the same size as an Olympic swimming pool or the width of a football field.“We've been tracking a new asteroid named 2023 DW that has a very small chance of impacting the earth. Often when new objects are discovered, it takes several weeks' data to reduce the uncertainties and adequately predict their orbits years into the future,”NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) said.The asteroid is ranked on the Torino Scale as Level 1 threat. The scale is a tool to categorize potential earth impacts, with zero being no threat and 10 being something that can cause a global disaster. One on the Torino Scale means 2023 DW is in the normal or green zone.“Current calculations show the chance of collision (碰撞) is extremely unlikely with no need for public concern,” NASA says of the green zone. “New telescopic observationswill very likely lead to reassignment to Level 0.”Although 2023 DW doesn't pose a great risk to the earth, NASA has been continuing to work to defend our planet from any asteroid that could cause disasters.In September, 2022, NASA crashed its Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft, or DART, into an asteroid to see if it could change the trajectory of the space rock. NASA later confirmed the mission was a success, and is continuing to research how effective the method is, should a massive asteroid be headed our way.1.What does NASA's PDCO say about 2023 DW?A.It is too close to the earth.B.It must be destroyed in space.C.Its orbit is still uncertain now.D.Its orbit should be changed.2.How is 2023 DW ranked on the Torino Scale?A.As Level zero threat.B.As Level ten threat.C.In the normal zone.D.In the threatening zone.3.What does the underlined word “trajectory” mean in the last paragraph?A.Size. B.Weight.C.Angle. D.Path.4.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.An Asteroid Was Discovered at an Observatory in ChileB.An Asteroid Is Coming Our Way, Unlikely to Hit UsC.A Space Rock Has Just Passed the EarthD.A Spacecraft Has Been Crashed RecentlyB2023ꞏ全国卷Ⅱ应用文315词★★★★☆Yellowstone National Park offers a variety of ranger programs throughout the park, and throughout the year.

重庆合川区2019高考英语阅读理解九月指导题(四)及答案2019高考训练--阅读理解。
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。
Some of the most painful moments I spend as a vet (兽医) are those spent with my customers assisting my animal patients from this world to the next. Making this final decision is not easy, and I have often felt powerless to comfort the sorrowful owners.That was before I met Shane.I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog named Belker who had developed a serious health problem. The dog's owner—Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane—were hoping for a miracle (奇迹). But I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia (安乐死) for the old dog in their home. As we made the arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the euthanasia. They felt Shane could leam something from the experience.The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him.Shane seemed so calm, patting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.A few minutes later, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's death without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a little while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up:"I know why."Shocked, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next astonished me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.He said, "Everybody is born so they can learn how to live a good life:like loving everybody and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long."1. Shane's parents wanted Shane to witness the euthanasia mainly because ____.A. they hoped he could gain something from itB. they knew he hated to part with BelkerC. they wanted him to remember Belker foreverD. they intended him to learn to carry out euthanasia2. What can we learn from the third paragraph?A. Belker got sick mainly because of lack of care.B. There was no hope for Belker to recover but to suffer.C. Shane didn't feel sad about Belker's death.D. Belker didn't want to live any longer because of the pain.3. We can infer from the underlined sentence that____.A. words failed the vet when he tried to comfort Belker's familyB. the vet was familiar with the feelings of Belker's familyC. the vet would rather not perform the euthanasiaD. the vet's throat was uncomfortable with Belker's family around4. What would the author say about Shane?A. He knew little about animal lives.B. He felt unexpected about Belker's death.C. He had a unique opinion about life.D. He was an outgoing and warm-hearted boy.参考答案1. B 2. C 3. C 4. B高考英语冲刺阅读理解。

They said “cheers” ,clicked drinking bags and toasted NASA workers on the ground who were sipping their own version of recycled drinking water.The recycling system is needed for astronaut stations on the moon and Mars. It also will save NASA money because it won’ t have to ship up as much water to the station by space shuttle or cargo rockets.Besides, it’ s important as the spacestation is about to expand from three people living on board to six.The recycling system had been brought up to the space station last November by space shuttle Endeavour, but it couldn’ t be used until samples were tested back on Earth. So when it came time to actually drink up, NASA made a big deal of it. The three man crew stood, holding their drinks and congratulated engineers in two NASA centers that worked on the system.“This is something that had been the stuff of science fiction,” Barratt said before taking a small mouthful. “The taste is worth trying.”NASA deputy space shuttle manager LeRoy Cain called it “a huge milestone”.The new system takes the combined urine of the crew from the toilet, moves it to a big tank, where the water is boiled off, and the vapor is collected. The rest of the urine is thrown away. The water vapor is mixed with water from air condensation, and then it goes through filters. When six crew members are aboard it can make about six gallons from urine in about six hours.“Some people may find the idea of drinking recycled urine distast eful, but it is also done on Earth with a lot longer time between urine and the tap”said Marybeth Edeen, the space station’s national lab manager.The technology NASA developed for this system has already been used for quick water purification after the 2004 Asian tsunami, Edeen said.“We are happy to have this water work through the system —we’ re happy to have it work through our systems,”Barratt said.[语篇解读] 本文讲的是国际空间站宇航员试饮尿液循环水。

重庆市合川二中高考英语二轮复习 阅读理解统练4-人教版高三全册英语试题
重庆市合川二中2016高考英语二轮阅读理解统练〔4〕阅读如下四篇短文,从每一小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最优选项。
Kingda Ka, the tallest roller coaster 〔过山车〕 on Earth, drops its passengers a life-flashing 418 feet. Ferrari World's Formula Rossa, the fastest, takes riders' breath away at speeds of up to150 mph. BRC Imagination Arts, a Southern California design firm, has proposed something entirely new: a ride that creates the sensation of zero gravity for up to eight seconds at a time.BRC drew its concept from the "Vomit Comet," the plane NASA uses to train astronauts. Its proposed theme-park ride would travel up and then back, similar to the existing "Superman: Escape from Krypton" coaster at SixFlagsMagicMountain in California. But unlike Superman and other open-car coasters, the vomit-comet ride would be fully enclosed. Riders would enjoy the illusion of floating within a stable chamber.To create that illusion, a special motor system would speed coasters up the track with great precision〔准确度〕. As the coaster approached a top speed of more than 100 mph, it would suddenly and ever so slightly slow down—just enough to throw the passengers up from their seats and then quickly adjust its speed to fly in formation with and around the passengers. As the coaster reached the top of the track and began to drop back down, the computer system would continue to match its speed to that of the falling passengers, extending the sensation of weightlessness for several additional seconds, and finally rapidly slow down to a stop back at the base station. Roller coasters typically cost no more than $30 million, but the zero-gravity ride would cost $50 million or more, to a large extent because the precision-response propulsion system〔推进系统〕 is so complex. But if someone were to write a check today, Rogers says, his company could be sending riders on weightless journeys by the end of 2014.1. What makes BRC's coaster different?A. It's the tallest roller coaster in the States.B. It's the fastest roller coaster on Earth.C. It can bring a sensation of zero gravity to its riders.D. It is a NASA product.2. Why would people in BRC's coaster have an illusion of floating in the chamber?A. Because it's designed with the inspiration of Superman.B. Because a special functioning motor system is applied to it.C. Because the coaster can approach a top speed of more than 100 mph.D. Because the coaster would cost $20 million more than normal ones.3. At what point could a rider begin to feel weightless?A. When the coaster reduced its speed immediately after it reached its top speed.B. When the coaster began to increase its speed.C. When the coaster reduced its speed to a stop back at the base station.D. When the coaster reached the top of the track.4. What can we infer from the passage?A. BRC is a famous design firm.B. You feel like a superman when riding BRC coaster.C. BRC's budget can't make the project complete until 2014.D. Kingda Ka and Ferrari World's Formula Rossa will close down soon.【参考答案】1—4、CBACAWhile there has been public debate about whether running is good for your health for a long time, experts agree that running has more benefits than the costs. Some people are concerned that the pressure on your knees and ankles can be detrimental. While this can be true, there are many things that you can do to reduce your risk of injury. You should always go to a doctor for advice before you begin any type of exercise program. Then, a good pair of running shoes can be helpful as your feet hit the ground. They will help protect your ankles by providing stability to your feet. So it is good idea to visit a specialty(专业) running shoe store.

With a clear symbolic meaning, the flag in the traditional form is still used today to mark building, ships and other vehicles related to a country. The national flag as we know it today is in no way a primitive artifact. It is , rather, the product of thousands of years’ development. Historians believe that it had two major ancestors, of which the earlier served to show wind direction.Early human beings used very fragile houses and boats. Often strong winds would tear roofs from houses or cause high waves that endangered travelers. People’s food supplies were similarly vulnerable (易受损害的). Even after they had learned how to plant grains, they still needed help from nature to ensure good harvests. Therefore they feared and depended on the power of the wind, which could bring warmth from one direction and cold from another.Using a simple piece of cloth tied to the top of a post to tell the direction of the wind was more dependable than earlier methods, such as watching the rising of smoke from a fire. The connection of the flag with heavenly power was therefore reasonable. Early human societies began to fix long pieces of cloth to the tops of totems (图腾)before carrying them into battle. They believed that the power of the wind would be added to the good wishes of the gods and ancestors represented by the totems themselves.These flags developed very slowly into modern flags. The first known flag of a nation or a ruler was unmarked: The king of China around 1008 B.C. was known to have a white flag carried ahead of him. This practice might have been learned from Egyptians even further in the past, but it was from China that it spread over trade routes through India, then across Arab lands, and finally to Europe, where it met up with the other ancestor of the national flag.8. The best title for the passage would be_________________A. Uses of FlagsB. Power of the National FlagC. Type of FlagsD. Development of the National Flag9. The earliest flags were connected with heavenly power because_____________A. they could tell wind directionB. they could bring good luck to fightersC. they were believed to stand for natural forces.D. they were handed down by the ancestors10. What does the author know of the first national flag?A. He knows when it was sent to Europe.B. He believes it was made in Egypt.C. He doubts where it startedD. He thinks it came from China.11. What will the author most probably talk about next?A. The second ancestor of the national flag.B. The role of China in the spread of the national flag.C. The use of modern flags in Europe.D. The importance of modern flags.参考答案8-11 DCCADIt was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night. The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.My father realized it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. I ’m so glad I did.On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(里脊〕in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn’t believe it---there aren’t any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whale--- actually as big as our boat-- was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and camp up suddenly, making big whirlpools(旋涡〕and waves. “ she’s trying to help her baby, but on the wrongside,〞 my father said. At this point , my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe---and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.12. The author says “ I’m so glad I did〞(in Para.2) because_________A. he witnessed the whole process of fishingB. he enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaC. he spent the weekend with his familyD. he experienced the rescue of the whales13. The harbour survived the storm owing to____________A. the shape of the harbourB. the arms of the bayC. the still water in the channelD. the long coast line14. The mother whale failed to help her baby because___________A. she had stayed in the polluted water for too long.B. the whirlpools she had made were no big enough.C. the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction.D. she had no other whales around to turn to for help15. What is the theme of the story?A. Fishing provides excitement for children.B. It’s necessary to l ive in harmony with animals.C. It’s vital to protect the environment.D. Saving lives brings people a sense of happiness. 参考答案12-15 DBCD。

2022高考英语重庆市阅读理解专项练习(4)及解析
2022高考英语重庆市阅读理解专项练习(4)及解析Words:343难度系数:★★建议用时:8分钟Grown-ups know that people and objects are solid.At the movies, we know that if we reach out to touch Tom Cruise, all we will feel is air.But does a baby have this understanding?To see whether babies know objects are solid.Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion(视觉影像)of a hanging ball.His plan was to first to give babies a real ball, one they could be expected to show surprised in their faces and movements.All the 16 to 24-week-old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there. Grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence.We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back.But does a baby realize that a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear and go to never-never land?Experiments done by Bower suggest that babies develop a sense of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old.In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen.When 16-week-old and 22-week-old babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to reappear.If the experiment took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train.This seems to show that all the babies had a sense of object permanence.But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case.The researcher substituted(替换) a ball for the train when it went behind the screen.The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train.But the 16-week-old babies did not seem to notice the switch(更换).Thus,the 16-week-old babies seemed to have a sense of “something permanence,”while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object.【解题导语】本文是一篇科普短文,大意是通过实验研究儿童是否明白物体是固体的,是否具有物体持久性的感受,研究说明,16周到24周的婴儿都明白物体是有形的固体,然而第一项研究说明只有18周以上的婴儿才对某个特定的物体的认识具有持久性。

How can we know that the birds we see in the South in the winter are the same ones that come north in the spring? Once John J. Audubon, a bird 16 (love), wondered about this. Every year he 17 (watch) a pair of little phoebes nesting in the same place. He decided to put tiny silver bands(箍) on 18 legs. The next spring, the birds 19 the bands came back in the very same place. The phoebe, it was learned, spent winter 20 it was warm enough to find food. Today there are hundreds of birdbanders all over America.The government of the U.S. has a special birdbanding department 21 makes all the birdbands. The bands do not hurt the birds, as they are made 22 aluminium and are very light. Each band has 23 special number. On each band are these words: “I nform Fish and Wildlife Service, Washington, D.C”.Anyone who finds a dead bird with a band on its legs 24 (ask) to send the band to Washington with a note 25 (tell) where the bird was found. In this way naturalists add to their knowledge of the habits and needs of birds.【参考答案】语法填空(共10小题,每小题1.5分)16. lover 17. watched 18. their 19. with20. where/wherever 21. which/that 22. of23. a 24. is asked 25. telling完形填空I have always been an independent person, but I have come to know that being independent does not mean refusing help.
