We have all imagined what it might be like to go into space and to land on Mars. Now at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida you and your family can live it. There are two parts to the new program, the Astronaut Training Experience (ATX) and Mars Base 1.
The Astronaut Training Experience
The virtual reality(VR) Walk-on-Mars, Land-and-Drive-on-Mars full-motion simulator (全动态模拟器) and Spacewalk Training are all parts of the ATX. If you or your children already love science and have a deep interest in space, this will bring that love to life. Prepare for your mission to Mars by training like a real NASA astronaut headed to space. Ever wanted to take a spacewalk? How about a zero-gravity experience, where you fix space equipment like a real astronaut would?
You can do any of these as “mini missions” if you don’t have time to do them all at once. Each stage takes about 30-45 minutes.
Mars Base 1
What could be cooler than a day actually spent on Mars? Not an hour or a walk through a display, but a real day working and surviving on the planet’s surface doing real science? Become a “rookie (新手) astronaut” participating in simulations and scientific research to grow and analyze crops in the Mars Botany Lab, or use robots to accomplish tasks. Yes, you actually take part in these activities, and grow real food that is really used and consumed.
Both the ATX and Mars Base 1 offer the magic of space travel without leaving the ground.
21. What can participants do at the ATX?
A. Grow space plants. B. Use robots to do tasks.
C. See space equipment exhibitions. D. Get trained like a real astronaut.
22. What do the two programs have in common?
A. Both offer real food to taste. B. Both take less than an hour.
C. Both provide hands-on activities. D. Both recommend mini missions.
23. Who are the intended readers of the text?
A. Parents. B. Students. C. Astronauts. D. Educators.
B
A teenager has realized her dream of becoming a model — just three years after a car accident left her with a broken back.
Marita Davies, was in a wheelchair for a year and had to learn to walk after she suffered terrible injures. She feared her dream of a modeling career was over but just three years on, she is now in the running to be crowned (加冕) Miss Great Britain. She said, “I was shocked when I learned how serious my injuries were. I thought my dream of becoming a model was over. My leg was seriously injured and my back was broken. The accident had broken my confidence.”
But when she finally came out of the wheelchair and she turned a corner. Marita decided she would still try to follow her dream, and sent her photos off to some modeling agencies. She did a few unpaid jobs while studying at college, and soon, paid commercial modeling jobs started coming in. Marita was a bit doubtful at first, because the accident has left her with huge scars on her leg and back. She was worried people wouldn’t want her to model for them, but it didn’t stop her.
She has done amazingly well to overcome everything, which has been thrown at her in the last three years. Within months of learning to walk again, Marita was signed up for advertising campaigns. She has also appeared in a TV ad. Marita was crowned Miss Nottingham City earlier this year, and is now competing against 59 other girls to be crowned Miss Great Britain.

C. Passed through a hard time D. Got into a difficult situation
26. How did Marita feel when paid commercial modeling jobs started coming in?

When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn’t have high hopes for it. But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an explosion in the houseplant industry.
“Plants are in fashion right now, ” says Dr. Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida. “People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating,” she says. “Adding more nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol(皮质醇), the stress hormone (激素) in our body.
“Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants, ” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.”
If you’re among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don’t beat yourself up if one (or a few!) doesn’t make it. “Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one, ” Detrinidad says.
28. How was Detrinidad’s business when it started?
A. It faced tough competition. B. It suffered a great loss.
C. It got lots of financial support. D. It went surprisingly well.
29. What is one of Knuth’s findings about plants?
A. They appeal more to students. B. They purify the environment.
C. They raise the cortisol level. D. They improve productivity.
30. What does Detrinidad try to explain by mentioning doctors and lawyers?
A. The necessity of social skills. B. The meaning of sustainability.
C. The importance of repeated efforts. D. The value of professional opinions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Time to Replace Houseplants B. Plants Boost Your Mood
C. Tips on Choosing Houseplants D. Plants Brighten Your Home
D
Does your soul die a little every time you throw away unused food? Mine does. Maybe that feeling comes from growing up in South Africa, where the phrase “there are children starving in Africa” was more of an uncomfortable reminder of fact than a prayer(祈祷语) at dinner time.
Food waste is a growing concern in the restaurant, supermarket, and supply chain industries. From technological solutions to educational campaigns, food producers and sellers are looking for ways to use more of what we’re already growing. But last month, one popular New York City restaurant tried a different way: It changed its menu to exclusively (专门) offer food that would otherwise be thrown away.
For two weeks in March, Greenwich Village’s Blue Hill restaurant was renamed wastED, and served items like fried fish cartilage(软骨), a juice pulp burger, and a dumpster diver’s vegetable salad. Each dish was especially made to raise awareness regarding food waste.
A study by the Food Waste Alliance determined that the average restaurant produces 33 pounds of food waste for every $1, 000 in revenue (收入), and of that waste only 15.7% is donated or recycled. Up to 84.3% is simply thrown out. Restaurants like Silo in the UK have experimented with zero-waste systems, but wastED took the concept to its logical conclusion.
It should be noted that none of the items on wastED’s menu was technically made from garbage. Instead, all the ingredients (配料) used were examples of meat cuts and produce that most restaurants would never consider serving. Things like kale ribs, fish collars, rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated and, with the help of a number of good chefs, turned into excellent cuisine.
Though wastED received enthusiastic reviews, it was designed from the start as a short-lived experiment; Blue Hill has since returned to its regular menu. Nevertheless, it serves as a reminder that there are many ways to address problems of sustainability, and that you can make an amazing meal out of almost anything.
32. What can be inferred about the author’s early life?
A. He witnessed food shortage. B. He enjoyed the local cuisine.
C. He donated food to Africans. D. He helped to cook at home.
33. Why did Blue Hill carry out the experiment?
A. To customize dishes for guests. B. To make the public aware of food waste.
C. To test a food processing method. D. To improve the UK’s zero-waste systems.
34. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Why the ingredients were used. B. Which dishes were best liked.
C. What the dishes were made of. D. Where the ingredients were bought.
35. What can we learn about wastED?
A. It has ended as planned. B. It is creating new jobs.
C. It has regained popularity. D. It is criticized by top chefs.

If you want to be confident at interview and get the job, body language will be important. Here are some useful tips for your body language during a job interview.
36 A job interview actually starts before you get to the interview room. You don’t know who could be looking at you from a window or standing next to you in the elevator. Your body language should tell others that you’re confident and calm. It’s improper to crazily search your file for your resume at this time.
Don’t go for direct eye contact. 37 A more effective way to make sure you look interested is to look at different parts of an interviewer’s face every two seconds such as their nose, eyes and lips.
Use hand gestures while you’re speaking. If you’re not sure what to do with your hands, go ahead and gesture while you’re speaking. When you’re really nervous, you may want to hide your hand because they express your anxiety. 38
Stay positive. Your body language follows your mind. If your mind is negative, your body will consciously create negative energy. However, stay positive and you feel confident in your body language. 39 And your smiles will be more likely to leave a good impression on the interviewers.
Work on your walk. Interviewers often make a hiring judgment within the first 10 seconds of meeting you. 40 When walking directly toward the interviewer, you had better make your body point in his direction and maintain eye contact with him occasionally.
A. Make a great entrance.
B. Prepare your documents.
C. Instead, make “direct face contact” .
D. How you walk into the room is a part of that judgment.
E. At this time, it’s a good choice for you to hide your hands.
F. If your have a positive mind, you will wear a smile on your face.
G. Rather, using hand gestures can actually help you feel more relaxed.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was incredibly proud of my school, the Maplewood Elementary. It connected me to my roots, as my father and grandfather had all graduated from here.
So, when our teacher Mr. Dow announced a group project to create a brochure (小册子) about our school for its 100th anniversary, I was thrilled. The best three brochures would be displayed in the school library, which was a chance to show the new students how wonderful our school was.
I was paired with two classmates: Jake. who loved photography, and Lily who had a gift for writing. Working with others could be fun, right? But my enthusiasm quickly faded.
Our first meeting was a disaster. When we discussed which part of the school we should focus on, Jake kept talking about cameras and photos. I turned to Lily, hoping for some support. But she simply shrugged and said, “I’m not really into this. It sounds boring.” Jake nodded in agreement. The project seemed to be harder than I thought.
At our next meeting, I tried to lead the conversation back to the project. I shared some interesting facts I had researched about the school. However, neither of them seemed interested. Jake had promised to gather materials from the library, but instead he showed us photos taken on the weekend. Lily hadn’t started her part of the research either, claiming she had been too busy. I felt like I was the only one who cared.
Back home, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I stayed up late that night, trying to create the brochure by myself. But no matter how hard I tried, the result was far from satisfactory. I was exhausted and disheartened. My mom noticed I was upset. “You can’t do this alone,” she gently reminded me. “Jake and Lily have talents that can make this project shine. You just need to find a way to get them involved.”
注意:
1.续写词数为150左右;

Dear judges and fellow students,
It’s my great honor to share my ideas on Energy Saving for a Better World. Energy plays an important role in our daily lives. It lights up our classrooms, runs our computers and keeps our homes warm. However, most of the energy we use is limited and non-renewable, so energy saving is our shared responsibility for a sustainable future.
Energy saving starts with small acts around us. First, remember to switch off lights, devices and chargers when leaving—such a tiny move saves much power. Besides, Walk or cycle for short trips, and set air conditioners to 26℃ in summer. What’s more, use reusable bags instead of plastic ones when shopping. Let’s act together to save energy and build a better world.
Thanks for listening!

With only three days left, I knew I had to act. After brainstorming some ideas, I invited Jake and Lily to my house. Opening my grandfather’s diary, I pointed at the faded photo of his class. “Your camera can save the moment for the future,” I told Jake, whose eyes suddenly sparkled. Then I suggested he photograph every corner of the school like “time travelers”. Meanwhile, Lily was engaged in my grandfather’s love letter, eager to bring hidden stories back to life. I was busy organizing layouts, combining historical accuracy with creativity. The clock was ticking, but our laughter replaced earlier frustration.
On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. We stood by the blackboard as everyone went through the pages. They examined the brochure carefully, with their fingers tracing the photos, narratives and timelines which connected three generations of graduates. Noticing surprise on every face, we couldn’t wait to hear Mr. Dow’s announcement of the winner. “This work isn’t just about the school anniversary,” he finally said, tapping the cover where our three names shone, “it’s about how its spirit lives through students’ cooperation.” That afternoon in the library, seeing our brochure on display, we realized our combined talents had created what none could alone.

W: Hello everyone. Welcome to Creative Day School. This summer we provide two full-time summer camp programs. Both will last the entire time the children are out of school. Our first summer camp is for our four-year-olds called Mini Camp. This Mini Camp will still have their normal everyday schedule with a lot of fun activities. At least once a week, our mini campers will go on a field trip. These field trips could consist of a day at the beach or exploring the natural museum. Our Older Summer Camp is provided for ages 5 through 12. There are scheduled summer fun activities and games. The children will participate in art, outdoor play, games, and much more. Swimming at a nearby pool is often a weekly field trip for ages 6 and up. Other field trips could include bowling, a day at the movies, or a picnic in the park. Permission of parents and activity fees are required to participate in all field trips. Now let’s watch a five-minute film about last year’s programs.
