Here are some suggestions on saving water for you. It may do great help. ☆ Fix water-saving equipment on your faucets (水龙头) and toilets. A low-flow showerhead could be a good start. ☆ Don’t wash dishes with the water running continuously. Use a method that requires less water to get the dishes clean. ☆ Turn off washing machine’s water supply to prevent leaks. It doesn’t need to be on all the time. ☆ Replace old toilets with new ones that use a lot less water. ☆ Don’t use too much water to water your lawn (草坪). ☆ Don’t leave the faucet running while you wash your face or brush your teeth. 31.

Washing machine’s water supply. 35. The passage may be from a book about ________. A. science B. technology C. education D. environment C ①Animal behavior is an interesting and attractive study. Scientists research the ways animals use to look for food. They study how animals protect themselves from their predators, and which animals kill other animals for food. All of this helps us understand how useful animals can be. ②Each country or culture raises some animals for food. In the United States, people mainly eat meat from cows, chickens and pigs. In other countries, people might raise sheep or buffalo for meat. These differences come in part from weather and other environmental conditions. People around the world eat all kinds of fish and shellfish from oceans and rivers. In some countries, people don’t always choose some animal groups, such as dogs, for food while in other countries such animals may become people’s favorite food. ③In West Africa, animals provide humans with more than food. They have been helping people do daily work for thousands of years. Horses, oxen(牛), and other work animals pull heavy things. Elephants, camels(骆驼) and other animals carry people and things from place to place. Carrier pigeons(信鸽) have been used to send messages. ④People also receive health benefits(利益) from animals. For example, dogs and cats can help calm people down. This is helpful for people to fight illnesses. Animals can also reduce stress(压力), helping people to draw their attention to learning new information, such as reading. When people are walking their dogs or horses, it encourages exercise. ⑤Animals and humans share space on Earth, so keeping a healthy relationship with animals around us is our best interest. 36.

Pull heavy things. D. Sing to humans. 40. Which of the following is the structure(结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. D Stephen Hawking once said that to limit(限制) ourselves to earthly matters would limit the human spirit. We as a species have followed this line of thinking. We’ve achieved great things, including the Moon landing and the Voyager I space probe(探测器) launch fifty-three years ago. The Voyager I has left our solar system(太阳系), making it the farthest-traveling spacecraft made by mankind. The year 2019 was a big year for space exploration. NASA’s TESS satellite is searching for worlds beyond our solar system. Scientists successfully took a picture of a black hole for the first time. However, although we have got lots of success, we’re still playing catch-up to the universe’s 13.8 billion years of evolution(演化). And with every step forward, we find more mysteries. One such mystery was the Oumuamua comet(彗星) in 2017. Unlike other comets, Oumuamua had no tail. It left our solar system quickly. Was Oumuamua just a space rock? Or could it have been an alien probe? We don’t know. Another mystery we have yet to solve has to do with dark matter(暗物质) or dark energy. What are they? We know that they make up over 95 percent of our universe. But we still don’t know how to touch them. Right now, the farthest distance we can see with our space telescopes is 32 billion light years. That’s a great distance, but still very small compared to the size of our universe. How much of the universe have we really discovered? What lies beyond 32 billion light years away? There are still many unanswered questions. But as technology improves, our next discovery might totally change our understanding of our universe. 41. When did the Moon landing and the Voyager I space probe launch? A. In 1951. B. In 1965. C. In 1969. D. In 1972. 42. Why the year 2019 was a big year for space exploration? A. Because the Voyager I has been launched successfully. B. Because scientists successfully took a picture of a black hole for the first time. C. Because we found all mysteries. D. Because we solved some problems of dark matter. 43. What does the underlined word “It” refer to? A. Oumuamua comet. B. Voyager I. C. Black hole. D. Dark matter. 44. Which of the following is TRUE? A. We have solved how to do with the dark matter and dark energy. B. 95 percent of the universe is dark energy. C. The farthest distance we can see is 32 billion light years. D. With the development of technology, we may have different understanding of the universe. 45. What is the passage mainly about? A. The Voyager I traveled in the solar system. B. The history of space exploration. C. Some information about Oumuamua. D The universe needs further discovering. 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Going clothes shopping can be difficult.

I’m honored to be invited here to share my ideas about how to learn English well. To be a successful English learner, we should have a good study habit and be good at thinking and solving problems. We are supposed to make full use of learning resources to improve our listening ability, such as listening to English songs and watching English movies. We can look up new words with the help of a dictionary. We can keep a diary in English every day to improve our writing skills. We should improve our ability to read and learn Chinese and foreign cultures. When we study English, it’s sure to meet all kinds of different problems. We should’t be afraid of difficulties. The key to improving English lies in perseverance. In my opinion, we should read and write in English every day. To practice, we can also speak to our friends and classmates in English. Thanks for your listening. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
