She'd been paralyzed from the waist down afer a serious accident while parchuting(跳) in 2oo3. The doctors never aid anything about floating, though. In 202l. ahe got to dojust that. Maryck was one of 12 participants in a Zero G flight, organized by the group AstroAcces This type of flight recreates the weightlessness that astronauts experience without going all the way to space. Flying over the Pacifie Ocean off Southern California, the modified 747 jet airplane made 15 steep dives and climbs, allowing the flyers multiple periods of weightlessness. The experience left Mazyck feeling joyful. "The flight was something that I would have nevr in my wildest dreams thought I would've experienced," she says, "especially the floating, the welghtlessness." Traditionally, strict physical requirements have prevented paralyzed people from becoming astronauts. AstroAcess is working to make space accessible to all. "Space removes the barier betwen people: now is the time to remove the bariers to space itself." says Mazyck,"It is sending a message to people who have historically been excludcd from STEM that not only is there room for you in space, there is a need for you." During the flight, she says, the participants did experiments and made observations. They took note of the Issues that people without certain disabilities might not realize, For example, people who couldn't grip with their legs needed another way to hold themselves still while weightless. The group also experimented with signaling lights for the deaf and with ways of uning braille (i文o) for the blind. These types of issues are easy enough to address. Now is the time to make space accessible 一before space tourism or space settlements become commonplace."I am so proud and addicted to what's happening here," Mazyck adds,"We are paving the way for the future." 24. What do we know about AstroAccess? A. It redesigns jet airplanes. C. It provides physical treatment B. It offers weightlessness experience. 25. Which of the folowing words can best describe Mazyck? D. It trains the disabled to be astronauts A. Generous and determined. C. Courageous and optimistic B. Caring and persistent. 26. What is required in the flights for the participants? D. Modest and ereative A. Astronaut experience. C. Weightlessness periods B. Steep dives and climbs. 27. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? D. Trials and observations A. Paving the Way for the Future. B. Disabied Americans Make It to Space C. Making Space a Place for Everyone. D.

There are as many as 3oo,ooo of these marine mammals in America but their population hasn't always been so large. Hunting and pollution throughout the years aceounted for fewer than 9o.ooo animals hy 1975, The Marine Mammal Protection Act, passed in 1972, contributes to the recovery. But now the sea lions are once again brushing up against the natural carrying capacity(容量). and scientists are starting to see some wacky changes, Ana Valenzuela Toro, an ecologist from the University of California, has one such discovery: As population size has grown, the males seem to be growing larger, while the females have remained the same size. He also finds with marine mammal population increasing, competition for resources with other individuals and species will grow, the pressures from which have lead to smaller, not bige animals, due to harhor seals and other species of sea lions. Analyzing the carbon and nitrogen isotopes (同位) in the animals' bones revealed their diets and habitats, partially explaining the sex-specific trend in body size. Females have a wider variety of dietary preferences than the males. meaning that less competition possibly exists among female sea lions to drive changes in their body size. However, male sea lions not only struggle for food but must compete to mate with a limited number of females, also causing the males to grow, Valenzuela Toro said “During their breeding season, males gather at sites occupied by females and engage ir aggressive male-male fights for territorial(领 士的) control, and bigger ones physically gain ar advantage," she said. As the population of sea lions grew, these fights likely broke out more and more often, and the larger winners got to pass on their genes to the next generation. Though bigger body size seemingly helps the sea lion population so far, Valenzuela Toro stressed that climate change potentially makes the trend unstable. The mammals' diets have historically fed on sardines and anchovies, both of which are threatened by warmer oceans. Now it will take more than the Marine Mammal Protection Act to preserve these animals. 28. What does the word 'wacky" underlined in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Ordinary. B. Predictable C. Unusual. D. Pleasant. 29. Which of the following does Valenzuela Toro agree with? A. Analyzing sea lions' diets is of little value B. The number of sea lions should be limited C. Female sea lions are more and more aggressive. D. Fierce competition has led to bigger male sea lions. 30. How does Valenzuela Toro feel about the future of bigger male sea lions? A. Confident B. Worried. C. Hopeless. D. Surprised. 高二英语试题 第5页共10页 31. What's the purpose of the texr? A. To explain a naural phenomenon. B. To call for protection for sca lions C. To recommend a travel destination D. To show some challenges sea lions face D Survivor bias (偏见, 偏差) ocurs when you tend to measure successfal outcomes and ignore failures. This sampling hias paints a more promising or even misleading picture of reality. Survivor bias is a sneaky problem that tends to slip into analyses unnoticed. For strters, it feels narural to emphasize success, whethcr it's entreprencurs, or survivors ofa medical condition We focus on and share these stories more than the failures. Think about the famous college dropouts who became highly successful, such as Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and Bill Gates, These successful examnles might make you think colege degree isn't beneficial. However, that's survivor bias at work! These famous individuals are at the forefront of media reports. You hear more about them because they are extraordinary You're not considering the millions of ether college dropouts that aren't rich and famous. You need to measure their outcomes as well. Survivor bias has even occured in medical studies about severe diseases. Younger, healthier, and more fit patients tend to survive a disease's initial diagnosis(诊) more frequently, Hence, they are more likely to join medical srodies. On the contrary, older, weaker paticnts are less likely to survive long enough to participate in shudies. Consequently, these studies overestimate successful disease outcomes because they are less likely to include those who die shortly after diagnosis. Undoubtedly, succesful eases are usualy more visible and easier to contact than unsuccessful cases, However, focusing on the high-performing successes and inoring other cases introduces survivor bias, After all, you're leaving out a significant part of the picture as it's harder to collect data from the less successful members of a population. Incomplete data can affect your decision-making process. Put simply, survivor bias produces an inaccurate sample, causing you to jump to incorrect conclusions. To reduce the impact of survivor bias, you should find ways to collect a representative sample from the population, not just a few of successil samples. That process might call for more expense and effort, but you'll get better results. 32. What writing technique is used in Paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Making comparisons B. Giving examplea. C. Describing facts. D. Analyzing data. 33. What may occur if you have a survivor bias? A. You will ake allfactors into account before making a final analysis. B. You wil overestimate the failure rate so you may quit your project. C. You willfail to get the complete data and reach an incorrect conchusion D. You will be more likely to survive in tough cireumstances. 高二英语试题 第6页共10页 34. What can we infer from the passage? A. People tend to lose sight of the overall data. B. People are unwilling to read unsuccessful stories C. Doctors don't have enough expense to colect abundant samples. D. The media should be responsible for kids' dropping out of school. 35. What does the author suggest readers do to avoid survivor bias? A. Leave out the famous historic cases B. Collect a wide enough range of samples C. Focus on those most mentioned examples D.

Leam to shake it off. We are all flooded daily with photos of other people's perfections, but really, what does it matter? 40 And even if you are more easily affected than others by social media envy, all you need to do is to look around you and acknowledge that you are doing pretty well affer all. A. If so. you are not alone. B. Value your friends in real life. C. Learn to appreciate the positives D. Why does it have such a stirring effect? E.
