Today is December 15, 2030. Influenced by the launch of the first manned mission to Mars next month, you will most likely get a gift card for a space trip.The interest in trips, 100km above the surface of the Earth, has grown steadily since such a trip began. However, the market has grown much larger this year since the official announcement of the Mars mission. More low - cost spacelines have entered the market and you can now find flights for such a trip for as low as $3,495.It's very reasonable.Space tourism( 旅游业，观光业) is one of the markets that have developed fast during the last decade, with the opening of the Starbright Hotel on the moon as well as the low orbital hotels that started accepting guests. However, accommodation in space is still expensive for the average household, so the suborbital (亚轨道的) flights with thirty - minute weightlessness during the three - hour flight will for some time be the most popular trip.However, the spacelines might in the future face fierce competition between space elevators (太空升降舱), like the one that is projected to start construction within two years. Once it is fully functional, it will start to ship cargo to space. But it will accept passengers as soon as possible to get back the large investment. Even if the elevator becomes successful, it will take several years before there are more elevators in the world to get in the competition for space traffic with the spacelines.Those who are looking for a little bit of adventure and have extra money to spend may want to consider a suborbital flight in space. While a suborbital flight may not be the space mission that you have always dreamed of, it will give you the rare opportunity to see what our planet looks like in a high - altitude flight outside our atmosl3here. So before you enjoy a trip by elevator to space, enjoy a suborbital flight first.（1）From Paragraph 1, what will happen in January, 2031?A . A gift card will be taken to Max-s.B . Mars will be explored for the first time.C . Man will go to Mars for the first time.D . An affordable space trip will come true.（2）The underlined word "average" can most probably be replaced by in this passage.A . commonB . high - incomeC . low - costD . low - income（3）What is the space elevator's purpose in accepting passengers as soon as possible？A . To ship cargo to space.B . To get in the competition between spacelines.C . To start the construction of more space elevators.D . To get back the large investment.（4）Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A . Space tourism has developed fast during the last ten years.B . A suborbital flight may be the space mission that you have dreamed of.C . The suborbital flights will be the most popular trip for some time.D . Even though the elevator becomes successful, we still wait for a few years to see more elevators come out.（5）We can know from the passage that .A . the low orbital hotels have opened since a space trip beganB . within two years, space elevators will begin to ship cargo and people to spaceC . during the suborbital flights, you will experience 30 minutes' weightlessnessD . if you want to meet your curiosity, you may try a suborbital flight14. （8分）阅读理解Science is proving what pet owners have long believed: Dogs understand what we're feeling. Especially, dogs can recognize(识别) the difference between a happy and an angry human face, a study published Thursday in Current Biology suggests.It's the first research to show that dogs are sensitive (敏感) to our facial expressions, says the author Ludwig Huber at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna.In the Austrian study, 20 different kinds of pet dogs were taught to play a computer game through a series of exercises. In the first step, the dogs were shown two touch screens, one with a circle andone with a square. Through the exercises, they learned that a treat would appear if they chose the right one.Eleven of the 20 dogs were able to catch on to rules of the game and make it to the next test, where they were shown photos of happy and angry faces. The dogs were rewarded if they picked certain expression correctly. During the test, the dogs were shown only the upper half or the lower half of a face.It was easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one, suggesting the dogs do indeed understand the meaning behind the expression, Huber says.As a test, the dogs were then presented with: the same half of the faces they saw during the training, but from different people， the other half of the faces used in training， the other half of new faces，the left half of the faces used in training.In the cases, the dogs chose the right answer 70 to 100 percent of the time.Dogs who had been trained to recognize an expression of anger or happiness on the upper part of a face could find the same expression when shown only the lower part. Huber says, "The only possible explanation is that they recall from memory of everyday life how a whole human face looks when happy or angry."Dog owners know their pets not only recognize emotions but also understand the feelings.（1）The passage may come from .A . a news reportB . a science magazineC . a pets guideD . a history book（2）How many dogs in the research could understand the rules of the game?A . 11B . 20C . 70D . 100（3）During the test, the dogs were presented with the following faces .①the other half of some new faces②the right half of the faces used in training③the other half of the faces used in training④the same half of the fac es they saw but from different peopleA . ①③④B . ①②③C . ①②④D . ②③④（4）Why was it easier to teach the dogs to choose a happy expression than an angry one?A . Because dogs wanted to make a happy expression.B . Because dogs were rewarded for picking a happy expression.C . Because dogs saw a happy expression more often from their owners.D . Because dogs indeed didn't understand the meaning behind the expressions.（5）What can we learn from the passage?A . Dog owners know if their pets are happy.B . Dog owners know how to train their dogs.C . Dogs can make different facial expressions.D . Dogs can understand their owners' feelings.15. （11.0分）阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出适当的选项补全短文（有一多余选项），并将选项的编号依次填入表格中。
