B When Liam Pope-Lau fell into the ocean during a sailing lesson, he had no idea what he was in for. “I just remember how cold it was,” Liam recalls. “It really scared me and shook me up.” Thankfully, he was wearing a life jacket, but the water was freezing. Liam's scary experience inspired him to team up with his friend, Fraser Tuck, in his Grade 6 science class at the time. Together they came up with the idea of“LifeHeat”,- - a self-heating life jacket that could one day help someone in a similar situation. During the first phase, they concentrated on finding a chemical that creates heat upon contact with water. After a series of investigations, Liam and Fraser came across calcium chloride(氯化钙), It soon became LifeHeat's primary chemical component, which allowed the life jacket to remain warm underwater. Over the next two years, Fraser and Liam built 13 prototypes (模型) of LifeHeat. But instead of building multiple life jackets from scratch(从零开始), the two focused on creating an attachable pouch(荷包). When the pouch came in contact with water, it could heat the body's core. For each prototype, Liam and Fraser experimented with different materials that could contain calcium chloride while still allowing its heat to escape. In the process,they experienced countless failures which, however, led them to be more creative. The two have entered their many prototypes into several science competitions over the last two years. InNovember last year, Liam and Fraser won two awards at a big science fair. They are now taking the feedback they received from experts and applying it to their next prototype. Liam and Fraser anticipate turning their invention into a business. As for future inventors, Fraser and Liam have advice for kids who want to create their own new technology.“Don't be afraid to try it out. because you never know where it could end up,” said Liam. “Go for it before someone else can steal your idea,” added Fraser with a laugh. 4. What gives Liam the desire to invent the“LifeHeat”? A. A science class. B. An amusing experience. C. A special life jacket. D. A cold struggle in water. 5. What do the Fraser and Liam focus on initially? A. Finding a suitable chemical. B. Building multiple life jackets. C. Creating an attachable pouch. D. Testing the prototypes of LifeHeat. 6. What can we learn about the“LifeHeat”? A. It has been put am the market. B. It is invented through trial and error. C. Iwo of its prototypes won awards at a science fair. D. The attachable pouch is the most important part of it. 第2页/共7页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 7. Which of the following can best describe Fraser and Liam? A. Humorous and ambitious. B. Courageous and competitive. C. Creative and determined. D. Humble and intelligent. C A surprising finding that the inner core may recently have slowed down was published in Nature Geoscience.Let's get to the core of how the Earth works to better understand the scientific findings. The Earth is composed of several layers: the crust, which is the surface we live on; the mantle, which begins below the crust and ends at the outer core; the outer core, which is made of hot liquid metal; and the inner core,which is believed to be a solid metal ball of iron and nickel. Scientists believe that the inner core may“floats” in the liquid metal and rotate(转动) independently of the rest of Earth's layers. The study's authors propose the Earth's inner core may be experiencing a slowdown and that this difference can be measured by observing a change in how seismic waves(地震波) pass through the Earth's center during an earthquake. Older data shows a lot of change in the wave patterns while passing through the core, but recent data shows the changes are no longer as visible. After analyzing the patterns of seismic waves through the decades,scientists theorize the Earth's inner core changes its rotational speed over time. Different studies have concluded that these changes in speed follow a pattern that may range from 20 to 70 years. The observed changes in the inner core's behavior are likely caused by magnetic forces acting on it, which is produced by the movement of liquid iron in the outer core. Although the core’ s spin seems to be independent, we know that all layers of the Earth interact and experience effects from each other. We have much more to learn about Earth and its physical processes. Scientists say that many years of continuous recording and study of seismic data are necessary to get answers. Until then, we must be patient. The investigation of this phenomenon will definitely lead us under the surface and into the core of understanding our planet! 8. Which layer is surrounded by the liquid metal? A. The crust. B. The mantle. C. The outer core. D. The inner core. 9. Which of the following may be a reason for the inner core’ s slowdown? A. Magnetic forces. B. Seismic waves. C. Human activities. D. Rotation patterns. 10. What does the author think of the research into the Earth's core? A. Promising. B. Ridieulous. C. Pointless. D. Questionable. 11. What would be the best title for this text? A. How does the Earth Work? B. Is the Earth's Core Slowing Down? 第3页/共7页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 C. Is it Necessary to Record Seismic Data? D. What is Special about the Earth's Core? D British anthropologists(人类学家) Russell Hill and Robert Barton of the University of Durham, after studying the results of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling matches at theOlympic Games, conclude that when two competitors are equally matched in fitness and skill, the athlete wearing red is more likely to win. Hill and Barton report that when one competitor is much better than the other, colour has no effect on the result. However, when there is only a small difference between them, the effect of colour is enough tip the balance.The anthropologists say that the number of times red wins is not simply by chance, but that these results are statistically significant. Joanna Setchell, a primate(灵长目动物) researcher at the University of Cambridge, has found similar results in nature. She studies the large African monkeys known as mandrills. Mandrills have bright red noses that stand out against their white faces. Setchell's work shows that the powerfi l males — the ones who are more successful with females —— have a brighter red nose than other males. As well as the studies on primates by Setchell, another study shows the effect of red among birds. In an experiment, scientists put red plastic rings on the legs of male zebra finches and this increased the birds' success with female zebra finches, Zebra finches already have bright red beaks(鸟喙), so this study suggests that, as withOlympic athletes, an extra flash of red is significant. In fact, researchers from the University of Glasgow say that the birds' brightly coloured beaks are an indicator of health. Jonathan Blount, a biologist, and his colleagues think they have found proof that bright red or orange beaks attract females because they mean that the males are healthier.Nothing in nature is simple, however, because in species such as the blue footed booby, a completely different colour seems to give the male birds the same advantage with females. Meanwhile, what about those athletes who win in their events while wearing red? Do their clothes give them an unintentional advantage? Robert Barton accepts that“that is the implication” of their findings. Is it time for sports authorities to consider new regulations on sports clothing? 12. According to their research. Hill and Barton conclude that . A. the colour of clothing has an effect on most sport events B. red should be the choice of colour for clothing in sports C red plays a role when competitors are equally capable D. athletes perform better when surrounded by bright red 13. The underlined word“tip” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to . 第4页/共 7页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 A. achieve B. advance C. keep D. change 14. The example of the blue footed booby proves that . A. male birds use different body parts to draw attention B. red is not the only colour to attract female birds C. blue gives female birds the same advantage D. blue can indicate how healthy a bird is 15. What can be inferred from the passage? A. The colour red gives male animals the most advantage. B. Male zebra finches prefer to have red plastic rings on their legs. C. Rules on sports clothing are going to be changed. D. Athletes wearing red may have an advantage over their opponents. 第二节 (共5个小题：每个小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Living and studying abroad can be a rewarding and enriching experience.
