The capital of a country is often a very populated city where much history has been made due to the high-level political and economic functions that occur there. However, sometimes government leaders decide to move the capital from one city to another. Capital relocation has been done hundreds of times throughout history. The ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Chinese changed their capital frequently.
Some countries choose new capitals that are more easily defended in a time of invasion (侵略) or war. Some new capitals are planned and built in previously undeveloped areas to promote development. Countries sometimes change their capital because they expect some type of political, social, or economic benefit. They hope and expect that the new capitals will surely develop into cultural treasure and hopefully make the country a more stable place.
Here are capital relocations that have occurred in approximately the last few centuries.

Wearing his bright red armband and speaking fluent Mandarin, from a distance 62-year-old Gao Tianrui could be taken for any regular Chinese man.
But on closer inspection, things are not quite what they seem:Gao’s real name is Terry Crossman and he is from the United States. Having lived in Beijing for more than20 years, Terry Crossman has finally fulfilled his Chinese dream: becoming a public security volunteer. Life as a “Xicheng Dama” has even made him an online celebrity.
Xicheng Dama are volunteers, usually women in late middle-age, who roam(闲逛) the streets of downtown Beijing’s Xicheng district. And now Crossman has joíned their club. He is seen giving tourists directions, getting water for a baby and even helping a neighbor sell yogurt.
“I like helping others,” he said. “I live in the hutong and my neighbors and I usually help each other… This is where I live, where my friends are and where I call home.”
Crossman became interested in Chinese culture as a teenager. At 18, he took a ship to Taiwan to learn Chinese. On the ship the captain suggested that he should have a Chinese name.“He named me Gao Tianrui,”he said.
Crossman and his family moved to Beijing in 1997. His parents separated when he was young, and he lived in many different places in the US, so he never felt like he had a regular home there. “I had no hometown in the United States,”he said. “Your home is where your things are. In this sense, Beijing is my home.”
He can often be found chatting with local people, especially taxi drivers. During his leisure time, Crossman teaches people English. Currently he is helping employees at a cafe near his home, telling them how to say useful words such as“set meal” and “discount”.
In March, Crossman met Liu Xiaoxia, who helped him get into volunteering. “He asked me to give him a red armband—the symbol of the volunteers.” Liu said, and Crossman is proud of his.
“In different periods I had different lives:married life, life with children and life alone,”he said. “Now I just enjoy living here.”
4. What does Crossman need to do as a Xicheng Dama?
A. Pretend to be Chinese. B. Be a tour guide.
C. Chat with others. D. Help others.
5. Which of the following best describes Crossman?
A. Warmhearted. B. Humorous.
C. Confident. D. Proud.
6. How did Crossman get his Chinese name?
A. From a ship captain. B. From a taxi driver.
C. From his parents. D. From Liu Xiaoxia.
7. Why does Crossman feel proud of his red armband?
A. It makes him look like a native Chinese man.
B. It marks the realization of his dream to become a volunteer.
C. It reminds him of his hometown in the United States.
D. It allows him to chat with local people whenever he is free.
C
The COVID-19 pandemic has been a frequent topic of conversation for most of us over the past year. As we dreamt of indoor dining, vacations, and hugging our friends again, my friend Ana texted that her mother, living in Brazil, had been infected by the coronavirus. I won’t go into details here, but the disruption to life in Brazil have been especially upsetting considering their social and cultural norms (规范).
Ana is Brazilian, and I’m from the US. While living in New York City, we became fast friends despite the few awkward cultural differences I learned to deal with. She was comfortable with intimacy; I preferred to keep my distance. She liked the company of many; I liked the friendship of few. It was awkward for me to lean in for a quick hug, only to be embraced then kissed on the cheeks. To this day, I’m not an excellent cheek kisser, but I try. She is one of many people over the years who have educated me, in a way, about delighting in cultural difference.
I called Ana to check on her mother and I was primarily curious about how social and cultural norms have been affected. It’s difficult, said Ana, because the necessary health regulations are opposite to “what we believe and everything we know about living in a community and displaying feelings of love”, but she hasn’t given up hope. I asked if the shifts made during the pandemic will change cultural norms. “Absolutely not,” said Ana. This is who Brazilians are in nature and change doesn’t happen overnight. They spend a lot of time and energy investing in relationships, and the deeply rooted social conventions won’t change quickly.
Over the years, Ana has shared many stories that emphasize the differences in our upbringing. I delight in our differences, even if kissing on the cheek makes me uncomfortable. We find our commonalities, like talking with our hands, being expressive, and valuing community. And we learn from our differences. COVID disrupted many things, but through all of this, Ana said, we must constantly be adjusting, understanding, and doing what’s best for our communities and the people we love.
8. Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word in Paragraph 1?
A. Adjustment. B. Disturbance.
C. Commitment. D. Preference.
9. What can we learn about Ann from Paragraph 2?
A. She is good at educating other people.
B. She prefers to stay alone in her own comfort zone.
C. She enjoys the close contact with others.
D. It took a long time for her to make friends with me.
10. Why doesn’t Ana think the pandemic will change social and cultural norms?
A. Because the Brazilians are born to be sociable.
B. Because the social conventions are easy to change.
C. Because the health regulations consist with her beliefs.
D. Because Brazilians rarely value investment in relationships.
11. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. My Attitude towards Friendship
B. Social and Cultural norms in the Pandemic
C. The Influence of COVID-19 on Life
D. My Acceptance of Cultural Differences
D
For humans, adapting to climate change will mostly be a matter of technology. More air conditioning, better-designed houses and bigger flood defenses may help lessen the effects of a warmer world. Animals will have to rely on changing their bodies or their behaviour. In a paper published inTrends in Ecology & Evolution, a team led by Sara Ryding, a professor in Australia, shows that is already happening. In some species of Australian parrot, for instance beak (喙) size has increased by between 4% and 10%since 1871. Similar trends are seen in species of mice and bats growing bigger ears, tails, legs and wings.
All that fits nicely with evolutionary (进化的) theory. “Allen’s rule”, named after Joe Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to have larger appendages (附加物) than those in mild areas. Such adaptations boost an animal’s surface area relative to its body volume, helping it to get rid of additional heal. Fennec foxes, meanwhile, which are native to the Sahara desert, have strikingly large ears, especially compared with their Arctic cousins.
Ryding’s team combined data from different species in different places. Now that they have little in common apart from living on a warming planet, climate change is the most reasonable explanation. Since any evolutionary adaptation comes with trade-offs, it is unclear how far the process might go. Bigger beaks might interfere with feeding, for instance. Larger wings are heavier, and bigger legs cost more energy to grow.
Honestly, studying a broader range of animals will help firm up exactly what is happening. For now, at least, the increase is small, never much more than 10%. That may change as warming accelerates. Every little bit of avoided future temperature increases results in less warming that would otherwise stay for essentially forever.
12. Why do some species grow bigger parts of their body?
A. They are following the new trends.
B. They have to adapt to warmer climate.
C. Scientists need them to do experiments.
D. Larger parts tend to help them feed well.
13. Where may warm-blooded animals have bigger body parts?
A. In mild areas. B. In hot places.
C. In the Arctic. D. In deserted regions.
14. What do we know about the change in animals from the last two paragraphs?
A. It comes at a cost.
B. Its cause is definite.
C. It happens in the same habitat.
D. Its process will end soon.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Living on a Warming Planet
B. Measures to Remove Heat
C. Pioneering Research on Animals
D. Evolution to Survive Heat

When it comes to building your savings, these little moves can add up a great deal.
● Good savers know the difference between wants and needs
One of the biggest lies we’re sold today, Stanzak says, is that wants are actually needs.“I’ve had so many clients try and tell me that travel, new clothing, and eating out are real needs,” she says.“ They ‘ re really not.”____16____ . For more money- saving tips, learn the things rich people never waste their money on.
● Good savers use cash or checks
____17____.“ Research shows you spend 20 percent more when using a credit card because it makes purchasing feel less’painful’,”she explains. Handing someone cash or writing out a check slows down many impulse(冲动) buys.
● Good savers keep track of the little things
Little things can add up to big expenses quickly, Garrett says, often before you even realize what’s happening. ____18____.
●____19____
Being frugal(简朴的) is a big part of saving money. And good savers are not too proud to use coupons, hunt down the best deal, or research all possible choices before buying. “Good savers think through each purchase and compare competitor prices,look for coupons, and read reviews in detail to make the best purchase decision,” Woroch says.
● Good savers start small
It can be easy to read lists of money-saving tips like this and feel completely puzzled as to what to do. ____20____.“ If you ‘ re new to saving, start small. It’s easier to adapt to a small change than a complete one,”Woroch explains.“So begin by automating(使自动化)a small amount each week and when you become used to saving that amount and living off what you have left, increase it by a little. You’ll continue creating a better savings habit each time.”
A. Good savers look for deals
B. Good savers adjust for life changes
C. But saving doesn’t have to be a huge change
D. Good savers often tend to use physical types of money
E. Good savers will write down, all their expenses, even the tiniest ones
F. You can’t save if you don’t even know how much money you have to begin with
G. Instead, good savers actually write down a list of their basic needs, their wants, and their big wishes

Wearing his bright red armband and speaking fluent Mandarin, from a distance 62-year-old Gao Tianrui could be taken for any regular Chinese man.
But on closer inspection, things are not quite what they seem:Gao’s real name is Terry Crossman and he is from the United States. Having lived in Beijing for more than20 years, Terry Crossman has finally fulfilled his Chinese dream: becoming a public security volunteer. Life as a “Xicheng Dama” has even made him an online celebrity.
Xicheng Dama are volunteers, usually women in late middle-age, who roam(闲逛) the streets of downtown Beijing’s Xicheng district. And now Crossman has joíned their club. He is seen giving tourists directions, getting water for a baby and even helping a neighbor sell yogurt.
“I like helping others,” he said. “I live in the hutong and my neighbors and I usually help each other… This is where I live, where my friends are and where I call home.”
Crossman became interested in Chinese culture as a teenager. At 18, he took a ship to Taiwan to learn Chinese. On the ship the captain suggested that he should have a Chinese name.“He named me Gao Tianrui,”he said.
Crossman and his family moved to Beijing in 1997. His parents separated when he was young, and he lived in many different places in the US, so he never felt like he had a regular home there. “I had no hometown in the United States,”he said. “Your home is where your things are. In this sense, Beijing is my home.”
He can often be found chatting with local people, especially taxi drivers. During his leisure time, Crossman teaches people English. Currently he is helping employees at a cafe near his home, telling them how to say useful words such as“set meal” and “discount”.
In March, Crossman met Liu Xiaoxia, who helped him get into volunteering. “He asked me to give him a red armband—the symbol of the volunteers.” Liu said, and Crossman is proud of his.
“In different periods I had different lives:married life, life with children and life alone,”he said. “Now I just enjoy living here.”
4. What does Crossman need to do as a Xicheng Dama?
A. Pretend to be Chinese. B. Be a tour guide.
C. Chat with others. D. Help others.
5. Which of the following best describes Crossman?
A. Warmhearted. B. Humorous.
C. Confident. D. Proud.
6. How did Crossman get his Chinese name?
A. From a ship captain. B. From a taxi driver.
C. From his parents. D. From Liu Xiaoxia.
7. Why does Crossman feel proud of his red armband?
A. It makes him look like a native Chinese man.
B. It marks the realization of his dream to become a volunteer.
C. It reminds him of his hometown in the United States.
D. It allows him to chat with local people whenever he is free.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B
【解析】

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a frequent topic of conversation for most of us over the past year. As we dreamt of indoor dining, vacations, and hugging our friends again, my friend Ana texted that her mother, living in Brazil, had been infected by the coronavirus. I won’t go into details here, but the disruption to life in Brazil have been especially upsetting considering their social and cultural norms (规范).
Ana is Brazilian, and I’m from the US. While living in New York City, we became fast friends despite the few awkward cultural differences I learned to deal with. She was comfortable with intimacy; I preferred to keep my distance. She liked the company of many; I liked the friendship of few. It was awkward for me to lean in for a quick hug, only to be embraced then kissed on the cheeks. To this day, I’m not an excellent cheek kisser, but I try. She is one of many people over the years who have educated me, in a way, about delighting in cultural difference.
I called Ana to check on her mother and I was primarily curious about how social and cultural norms have been affected. It’s difficult, said Ana, because the necessary health regulations are opposite to “what we believe and everything we know about living in a community and displaying feelings of love”, but she hasn’t given up hope. I asked if the shifts made during the pandemic will change cultural norms. “Absolutely not,” said Ana. This is who Brazilians are in nature and change doesn’t happen overnight. They spend a lot of time and energy investing in relationships, and the deeply rooted social conventions won’t change quickly.
Over the years, Ana has shared many stories that emphasize the differences in our upbringing. I delight in our differences, even if kissing on the cheek makes me uncomfortable. We find our commonalities, like talking with our hands, being expressive, and valuing community. And we learn from our differences. COVID disrupted many things, but through all of this, Ana said, we must constantly be adjusting, understanding, and doing what’s best for our communities and the people we love.
8. Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word in Paragraph 1?
A. Adjustment. B. Disturbance.
C. Commitment. D. Preference.
9. What can we learn about Ann from Paragraph 2?
A. She is good at educating other people.
B. She prefers to stay alone in her own comfort zone.
C. She enjoys the close contact with others.
D. It took a long time for her to make friends with me.
10. Why doesn’t Ana think the pandemic will change social and cultural norms?
A. Because the Brazilians are born to be sociable.
B. Because the social conventions are easy to change.
C. Because the health regulations consist with her beliefs.
D. Because Brazilians rarely value investment in relationships.
11. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. My Attitude towards Friendship
B. Social and Cultural norms in the Pandemic
C. The Influence of COVID-19 on Life
D. My Acceptance of Cultural Differences
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者是一名美国人,在与巴西友人安娜的相处中,她了解到虽然疫情在一定程度上影响了巴西人的生活,但是根植的传统文化是不会轻易改变的,得益于与安娜多年的友谊,作者学会了求同存异,最后欣然接受了文化差异。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“I won’t go into details here, but the disruption to life in Brazil have been especially upsetting considering their social and cultural norms(规范).(在这里我就不细说了,但考虑到巴西的社会和文化规范,这种对生活的disruption尤其令人不安)”中“have been especially upsetting(尤其令人不安)”可推知,划线词是指对生活造成打扰或破坏 ,所以尤其令人不安。结合选项,划线词与disturbance意思相近,意为“扰乱,干扰”。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“She was comfortable with intimacy; I preferred to keep my distance.(她对亲密无间感到很自在;我宁愿保持距离)”可知,即便有新冠疫情的影响,安娜仍喜欢与人亲近。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“I asked if the shifts made during the pandemic will change cultural norms. “Absolutely not,” said Ana. This is who Brazilians are in nature and change doesn’t happen overnight. They spend a lot of time and energy investing in relationships, and the deeply rooted social conventions won’t change quickly.(我问,大流行期间的转变是否会改变文化规范。“绝对不行,”安娜说。这就是巴西人的本性,改变不会在一夜之间发生。他们花大量的时间和精力在人际关系上,根深蒂固的社会习俗不会很快改变)”可推知,安娜认为大流行不会改变社会和文化规范,是因为巴西人天生善于交际,在人际关系上投入了大量的时间和精力,根深蒂固的社会习俗不会很快改变。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并结合文章最后一段中“I delight in our differences, even if kissing on the cheek makes me uncomfortable.(我喜欢我们的不同,即使亲吻脸颊让我不舒服)”可推知,作者在巴西友人的影响下,改变了对文化差异的看法,最后作者学会了求同存异,欣然接受了文化差异,故D选项“My Acceptance of Cultural Differences(我对文化差异的接受)”可作为文章最佳标题。故选D。
D
For humans, adapting to climate change will mostly be a matter of technology. More air conditioning, better-designed houses and bigger flood defenses may help lessen the effects of a warmer world. Animals will have to rely on changing their bodies or their behaviour. In a paper published inTrends in Ecology & Evolution, a team led by Sara Ryding, a professor in Australia, shows that is already happening. In some species of Australian parrot, for instance beak (喙) size has increased by between 4% and 10%since 1871. Similar trends are seen in species of mice and bats growing bigger ears, tails, legs and wings.
All that fits nicely with evolutionary (进化的) theory. “Allen’s rule”, named after Joe Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to have larger appendages (附加物) than those in mild areas. Such adaptations boost an animal’s surface area relative to its body volume, helping it to get rid of additional heal. Fennec foxes, meanwhile, which are native to the Sahara desert, have strikingly large ears, especially compared with their Arctic cousins.
Ryding’s team combined data from different species in different places. Now that they have little in common apart from living on a warming planet, climate change is the most reasonable explanation. Since any evolutionary adaptation comes with trade-offs, it is unclear how far the process might go. Bigger beaks might interfere with feeding, for instance. Larger wings are heavier, and bigger legs cost more energy to grow.
Honestly, studying a broader range of animals will help firm up exactly what is happening. For now, at least, the increase is small, never much more than 10%. That may change as warming accelerates. Every little bit of avoided future temperature increases results in less warming that would otherwise stay for essentially forever.
12. Why do some species grow bigger parts of their body?
A. They are following the new trends.
B. They have to adapt to warmer climate.
C. Scientists need them to do experiments.
D. Larger parts tend to help them feed well.
13. Where may warm-blooded animals have bigger body parts?
A. In mild areas. B. In hot places.
C. In the Arctic. D. In deserted regions.
14. What do we know about the change in animals from the last two paragraphs?
A. It comes at a cost.
B. Its cause is definite.
C. It happens in the same habitat.
D. Its process will end soon.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Living on a Warming Planet
B. Measures to Remove Heat
C. Pioneering Research on Animals
D. Evolution to Survive Heat
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第二段““Allen’s rule”, named after Joe Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to have larger appendages(附加物) than those in mild areas. ”(“艾伦法则”是以乔·艾伦的名字命名的,他在1877年提出了这个观点,认为生活在炎热地区的温血动物往往比生活在温和地区的温血动物有更大的附肢。)可知,温血动物在炎热的地方可能有更大的身体部位。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Since any evolutionary adaptation comes with trade-offs, it is unclear how far the process might go. Bigger beaks might interfere with feeding, for instance. Larger wings are heavier, and bigger legs cost more energy to grow.”(任何进化适应都需要权衡取舍,目前尚不清楚这一过程可能会走多远。例如,较大的喙可能会妨碍进食。更大的翅膀更重,更大的腿需要更多的能量才能成长。)可知,动物的变化是有代价的。故选A项。

When it comes to building your savings, these little moves can add up a great deal.
● Good savers know the difference between wants and needs
One of the biggest lies we’re sold today, Stanzak says, is that wants are actually needs.“I’ve had so many clients try and tell me that travel, new clothing, and eating out are real needs,” she says.“ They ‘ re really not.”____16____ . For more money- saving tips, learn the things rich people never waste their money on.
● Good savers use cash or checks
____17____.“ Research shows you spend 20 percent more when using a credit card because it makes purchasing feel less’painful’,”she explains. Handing someone cash or writing out a check slows down many impulse(冲动) buys.
● Good savers keep track of the little things
Little things can add up to big expenses quickly, Garrett says, often before you even realize what’s happening. ____18____.
●____19____
Being frugal(简朴的) is a big part of saving money. And good savers are not too proud to use coupons, hunt down the best deal, or research all possible choices before buying. “Good savers think through each purchase and compare competitor prices,look for coupons, and read reviews in detail to make the best purchase decision,” Woroch says.
● Good savers start small
It can be easy to read lists of money-saving tips like this and feel completely puzzled as to what to do. ____20____.“ If you ‘ re new to saving, start small. It’s easier to adapt to a small change than a complete one,”Woroch explains.“So begin by automating(使自动化)a small amount each week and when you become used to saving that amount and living off what you have left, increase it by a little. You’ll continue creating a better savings habit each time.”
A. Good savers look for deals
B. Good savers adjust for life changes
C. But saving doesn’t have to be a huge change
D. Good savers often tend to use physical types of money
E. Good savers will write down, all their expenses, even the tiniest ones

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几个帮助你做积蓄的方法。
【16题详解】
结合段落标题“Good savers know the difference between wants and needs”(好的储蓄者知道想要和需要的区别)以及前文“One of the biggest lies we’re sold today, Stanzak says, is that wants are actually needs.“I’ve had so many clients try and tell me that travel, new clothing, and eating out are real needs,” she says.“ They ‘ re really not.””(Stanzak 说,我们今天听到的最大的谎言之一就是想要就是需要。她说:“我有很多客户试图告诉我,旅行、新衣服和外出就餐是真正需要的。”“(事实上)它们真的不是。”)可知,生活中人们往往认为想要就是需要,实际上它们并不相等。因此空处应当描述好的储蓄者是如何做的。选项G.“相反,好的储蓄者实际上会写下他们的基本需求、他们的需求和他们的大愿望。”切题,故选G。
【17题详解】
根据段落标题“Good savers use cash or checks”(好的储蓄者使用现金或支票)可知,本段主要讲述好的储蓄者的存钱方法是使用现金这种实物。所以接下类的段落理应讲述好的储蓄者会使用实物性质的钱。选项D.“好的储蓄者通常倾向于使用实物形式的钱”和段落标题意义一致,故选D。
【18题详解】
根据段落标题“Good savers keep track of the little things”(好的储蓄者会记录一些小事情)作为段落总结,此处应该讲述好的储蓄者会把生活中的微笑的开销都会记录。选项E.“好的储蓄者会记下他们所有的开销,即使是最小的开销”,切题,故选E。
【19题详解】
根据下文“And good savers are not too proud to use coupons, hunt down the best deal, or research all possible choices before buying. “Good savers think through each purchase and compare competitor prices,look for coupons, and read reviews in detail to make the best purchase decision,” ”(优秀的储蓄者对于使用优惠券并不觉得自豪,他们会寻找最好的交易,或者在购买之前研究所有可能的选择。“好的储蓄者会仔细考虑每次购买,比较竞争对手的价格,寻找优惠券,阅读详细的评论,以便做出最佳购买决定。”)可知,好的储蓄者在做每次购买决定时,会比较竞争对手的价格,最终找到最佳的购物选择。所以本段的标题句应该叙述好的储蓄者会寻找最好的购物选择。选项A.“好的储蓄者寻找好的交易”,切题,故选A。
【20题详解】
根据下文““ If you ‘ re new to saving, start small.”(如果你刚开始储蓄,从小事做起。)可知,储蓄要从小做起,因而空处讲述储蓄并不必做出很大的改变。选项C.“但储蓄不一定是一个巨大的改变”,切题,故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要讲述了神舟13号飞船安全返回地球,三位宇航员翟志刚、王亚平和叶光复分别描述了自己的感受,文章还提到他们在太空站所进行的科学和科普课堂。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:周六上午,神舟13号返回舱搭载了翟志刚、王亚平和叶光复三名中国宇航员,在完成打破纪录的六个月太空任务后安全返回地球。根据语境可知,此句意为“安全地着陆”,需要用副词来修饰动词landed。故填safely。
【37题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:在现场等待的医疗小组确认三名宇航员身体健康后,中国宣布神舟十三号任务圆满成功。此句意为“宣布神舟13号是一个巨大的成功”,success作Shenzhou-13 mission的宾语补足语,表示泛指,complete success欠缺不定冠词。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:在现场等待的医疗小组确认三名宇航员身体健康后,中国宣布神舟十三号任务圆满成功。be in good health意为“身体健康”,是固定短语。故填in。
【39题详解】
考查不定式。句意:翟志刚,这次任务的指挥官,是第一个走出太空舱的人,他微笑着向现场欢呼的人群挥手。当被修饰词前面有序数词时,要用动词不定式作后置定语。故填to come。
【40题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:他说他感觉很好。他后面跟着王,她是进入中国空间站的第一位中国女宇航员。根据语境可知,此句意为“紧随其后的是王亚平”,翟是“被跟随”,所以是被动语态,时态根据上下文是过去时,且主语是第三人称单数,谓语动词用单数。故填was followed。
【41题详解】
考查谓语动词的时态。句意:叶光复最后从胶囊舱里出来。根据上下文可知,此处在陈述过去的事情,所以是过去时。故填exited。
【42题详解】
考查名词单复数。句意:“我的第一次太空飞行持续了6个月,这对我来说是一个挑战。我的太空梦实现了,”他说。month“月”是可数名词,由six修饰用复数。故填months。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在为期6个月的空间站之旅中,宇航员确定了空间站建设的关键技术,包括航天器在轨换位和机械臂重载操作。分析句子结构可知,此处为分词短语作状语,动词involve和其逻辑主语之间是主谓关系。故填involving。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:除了科学任务,宇航员还在空间站上进行了两次现场科学讲座,期间他们进行了各种实验,并回答了在地球上观看课堂的学生的问题。根据语境可知,此句意为“除了科学的任务之外”,用形容词修饰mission作定语。故填scientific。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:除了科学任务,宇航员还在空间站上进行了两次现场科学讲座,期间他们进行了各种实验,并回答了在地球上观看课堂的学生的问题。根据句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词lectures,从句中作介词during的宾语,用关系代词which。故填which。

Today was the first day of summer vacation and also the last day she’d be spending with Tanya, her very best friend. Tanya was going to camp in another state. She’d be gone all summer. Marsha and Tanya always spent their summers together. This one would be no fun without her!
Marsha’s mom came in.“What’s the matter, Rabbit?” she said.
“I miss Tanya already. Isn’t that silly?” Marsha said.
“No,”her mother said softly.“Missing a best friend isn’t silly at all. ” Marsha’s eyes were wet.
“I know how you feel.”“You do?”asked Marsha. Marsha’s mom nodded.“I had a best friend when I was your age. And she went away to camp, too.”“I felt pretty sad,” Marsha’s mom said. “I wanted my best friend to think about me. So I gave her something.”“What?”asked Marsha.“I gave her my best necklace,” her mom said.
“You did?”asked Marsha.“Well,I wanted her to have it,” Marsha’s mom said,“Maybe you could give Tanya one of your favorite things to take to camp. How about a doll? Then she will never forget that you are her best friend.”Marsha wiped her eyes.“Mom, that’s a great idea!” she said.
“Are you going to give Tanya your Glenda Glitter doll?” said Marsha’s mom.“Yes, Mom,”she said.“This is the one I want her to have. But now I’m going to get Glenda all nice and clean. ” Soon, Glenda Glitter looked just like new.
Next it was time to dress the doll. Marsha ran to her room. In a flash she was back. Her hands were full of doll’s dresses. “This is the one I like best,” she said.“And I know Tanya likes it best, too.”
“Let’s see.I think I can fix this little rip(口子).” Marsha’s mom was good at fixing things. The doll dress soon looked good as new.
“Look, Mom!”she said. “Glenda looks beautiful.”

She was holding something behind her back. Marsha still had her hands behind her, too. “OK,” said Tanya, “on the count of three, hands in front.” “1, 2, 3… ” Marsha said.
Paragraph 2: Tanya and Marsha put their presents in each other’s hands. “But that’s your favourite!” both girls yelled with excitement at once. “My mom said that this doll would help you think of me at camp,” Marsha said to Tanya. “My mom said this necklace would help you think of me,” Tanya said to Marsha. The girls looked at each other. They looked at their moms.
