It also tells us to keep away from bad smells. But do you know the interesting facts about something that smells bad? Fish You might have noticed that fish smell unpleasant sometimes. Fish from the ocean smell the strongest. These saltwater fish have a chemical （化学物质） called TMAO. While we prepare fish for cooking, TMAO is already changing into other things. One is called TMA. It smells super smelly. Usually, before cooks make saltwater fish a dish, they wash fish. And most of the TMA can be washed away. Cooks also add lemon to make the fish less smelly. Feet Foot sweat （脚汗） itself does not have a bad smell at first. But it has food and water that the bacteria （细菌） need. With them, the bacteria give off some smell. Most shoes often keep sweat in them. That makes shoes and socks warm and wet-a place where bacteria can grow. Different types of bacteria give off different smells. That's why feet may smell like bad vegetables, smelly eggs or other smelly things. Eggs Many things smell terrible when they go bad. But a bad egg gives off the most famous bad smell of all and draws people's attention. When an egg goes bad, the bacteria help to change the sulfur () in its white part into sulfur and hydrogen（硫化氢）. And it smells really bad. The nose just warns us away from it because too much sulfur an hydrogen will harm our health. 21. How does the writer tell readers that something smells bad in the passage? A.By showing forms. B. By listing numbers. C. By drawing pictures. D.By giving examples. 22.What can you learn from the passage? A.Different bacteria produce the same smell. B. A smelly egg gives off sulfur and hydrogen. C. Dry shoes and socks can heip bacteria grow. D. Lemon increases the bad smell of saltwater fish. 23. Which part of a magazine is the passage most probably taken from? A.Word History. B. Cooking Tips. C. Travel Guide. D. Fun Facts. B Sending astronauts to Mars is a big challenge. Astronauts will have to take everything they need, including food and water. The room inside the spaceship is too limited to hold many things. So packing a spaceship is a huge challenge for a trip to Mars. Six astronauts on an eight-month trip to Mars will need at least 18,000 kilograms of water for drinking and washing.They'll also need water to protect themselves from space rays which can pass right through spaceship walls and harm astronauts' living cells. But a layer of water placed around the ship can stop the harm. That's a lot of water. And sending water into space is too expensive. It costs $33,000 to send one cup of water to Mars.The more you take, the more it costs. We have the technology to get to Mars, but the problem is that it's too expensive.But Flynn, an engineer at NASA, thinks he has a way of solving the problem. Instead of building a heavy spaceship and packing it full of stuff （物料）, why not use the stuff as part of the spaceship? Imagine a spaceship that blows up like a balloon. Inside, the walls have pockets like a big honeycomb.These hold lots of plastic bags filled with water, dried food and algae (水藻). All these make hard walls and great radiation protection. And stopping radiation doesn't influence the food or water itself-it's safe to eat and drink. And what if the same water could be reused again and again? Flynn and his team call their packed-pocket idea Water Walls. Making oxygen and taking away CO2--the waste gas you breathe out-is another problem in space. "Water Walls will take away CO2 the same way it’s done here on our Earth-with living plants," Flynn says. Living plants take in CO2 to make their food, and give off oxygen. "Plants are hard to grow in a spacecraft, so we use algae," he says. Algae are tiny plants that live in water. The algae will live in bags in the walls too, fed by human waste and sunlight,eating up CO2 and making oxygen for the astronauts to breathe. Flynn thinks his onboard recycling system has many advantages. He hopes it will help make flying to Mars a reality very soon. 24. What does the underlined phrase "packing a spaceship" in paragraph.1 most probably mean? A.repairing things in a spaceship B.recycling things in a spaceship C.checking things in a spaceship D.putting things into a spaceship 25. What is the advantage of Flynn's system? A.Cost is saved. B. Travelling time is saved. C.Plastic bags are saved. D.Food is saved. 26. What is one purpose of Flynn's idea of Water Walls? A.To prevent space rays during the space trip. B. To make the whole spaceship stronger. C.To control the temperature in the spaceship. D. To produce water in the spaceship. 27. Why are algae put in the plastic bags? A. To prevent water from being polluted. B. To serve as food for astronauts. C.To provide oxygen for astronauts. D.To help other plants grow in a spaceship. C As XiongChuanfa, 34, blew a lifelike puppy out of molten maltose(溶化的麦芽糖)in just minutes, kids looked carefully at him with great surprise, thinking he was a magician. XiongChuanfa has been working on blowing sugar figurines, a Chinese traditional folk art with a history of over 600 years, for more than twenty years. In this special art form, the artist heats the syrup(糖浆)to a certain temperature, pulls off a small amount, makes it into a ball with an open center, presses the open area together and stretches it to form a tube. Then he blows air into the tube and makes it into different shapes. The traditional folk art has been listed as a state-level intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产). Every morning, Xiong prepares the molten syrup and drives to start his “magic show” around his city. “Many people, particularly kids, are attracted by this sugar art. After all, the ancient art is gradually disappearing,” Xiong said. Simon, from Australia, was attracted by a sugar Bing DwenDwen, the mascot of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, in Xiong's stall. Simon couldn'tresist trying to make one himself. However, he couldn't get the wanted shape though he tried several times. “It looks simple, but actually it's very difficult to master the skill,” he said. Thanks to Xiong's helping hand, Siunon finally saw a horse gradually taking shape. “Can't believe I've done this,” he said, expressing his excitement at how a pot of sugar syrup has been turned into something “truly amazing”. Xiong said that blowing sugar figurines can date back to the Ming Dynasty and that his family has passed down this art for four generations. “My6-year-old son often blows up a balloon-like sugar figure, just like I used to do as a child, "he said. Xiong's wife Wang Li is an artist of the sugar painting, which is a form of traditional Chinese folk art that uses hot, liquid sugar to make 2-D objects. “None of the cultural heritage left by our ancestors should be lost. They are name cards of the splendid Chinese culture and should be spread around the world,” Xiong said. The couple often show their skills beside colleges to draw youngsters closer to the traditional art and allow them to experience its charm. “Sugar paintings and sugar figurines are childhood memories of several generations of Chinese people. We try to combine paper-cutting skills and modern elements(元素)with sugar figurines, making them similar to modern trend(趋势)whilekeeping a balance between beauty and taste. We will spend the rest of our lives helping pass on this intangible heritage,” Xiong said. Many people were deeply moved after learning about the family's story. 28.

A. c-a-b-d B. c-b-a-d C. b-a-c-d D. b-c-a-d 29. The underlined word“resist” in Paragraph4 probably means“________”. A. be praised by B. stop oneself from C. be attracted by D. remind oneself of 30. Which of the following is true according to the article? A. Xiong's son blows up a horse with his father's help. B. Xiong's wife is also good at making sugar figurines. C.

Tasty sugar figurines D Characters: Fern Mrs.Arable Mr.Arable “Where's Papa going with that ax (斧头)?" said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast. “Out to the pig house," replied Mrs.Arable.“Some pigs were born last night." "I don't see why he needs an ax," continued Fern, who was only eight. “Well," said her mother, "one of the pigs is very small and weak, and it is useless. So your father has decided to do away with it." “Do away with it?” shrieked Fem. "You mean kill it? Just because it's smaller than the others?” “Don't well, Fern!" she said. “Your father is right. The pig would die anyway.” Fern pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors. “Please don't kill it!" she cried. “It's unfair.” Mr. Arable stopped walking. "Fern,” he said gently, "you will have to learn to control yourself.” “Control myself?” yelled Fern. "_____, and you talk about controlling myself." Tears ran down her cheeks and she tried to pull the ax out of her father's hand. "Fern,” said Mr. Arable, “I know more about raising a litter of pigs than you do. A weakling makes trouble.” "But it's unfair,” cried Fern. “The pig couldn't help being born small, could it? If I had been very small at birth, would you have killed me?’’ Mr. Arable smiled."Certainly not," he said, looking down at his daughter with love."But this is different. A little girl is one thing, a little weak pig is another." “I see no difference," replied Fern, “This is the most terrible case of injustice 1 have ever heard of."

I'll let you start it on a bottle,like a baby.Then you’ll see what trouble a pig can be.” When Mr. Arable returned to the house half an hour later, he carried a carton under his arm. “Put it on her chair!” said Mrs. Arable. As Fern came closer to her chair, the carton shook a little, and there was some noise. Fern looked at her father. Then she lifted the lid of the carton. There, inside, looking up at her, was the newborn pig. (Excerpted from Charlotte's Web) 32. What does the underlined word "well" mean? A. shout B.leap C. laugh D. wave 33.
