C In the1997 movie Contact,a scientist,played by actress Jodic Foster,detects a radio signal-the first communication from an extraterrestrial(外星的）civilization.That story, composed by Carl Sagan,is a fiction.But the search for such a signal is not a crazy story. Real scientists look to the sky,using powerful radio telescopes, hopping to hear even a whisper of a radio signal from one of our neighbor planets. Indeed,are centre port of a transmission originating from Proxima Centauri,the closest tar to our own,was reported by the British newspaper The Guardian in December.The source of the story is not a scientific paper,but instead it seems to have been leaked by an unknown source.The claim of a signal,if it turns out to be truly a sign of extraterrestrial intelligence,would be one of the most important discoveries of all times. In April and May of 2019,the 64-meter-wide Parkes radio telescope,located in Australia, was recording radio transmissions from the direction of nearby star Proxima Centauri Over the course of hours,the telescope documented data from the stare very half an hour,before staying away to look at a different direction.This procedure,called “nodding” was used to make sure that any observed signal is coming from a particular direction,rather than just random radio noise. This signal was not immediately noticed;it was over a year after the data was recorded that Shane Smith,an assistant with Breakthrough Listen,found it buried in the telescope's recordings.This was in late October 2020.So,what exactly was seen?It was a radio signal at a single frequency,specifically 980.002MHz.It was observed to have originated in a small patch of the sky,about half the diameter（直径）of the full moon,centred on Proxima Centauri. 28.Why is the movie Contact mentioned in Paragraph 1? A.To show the close connection between fiction and signals. B.To introduce the topic of a radio signal from a near planet. C.To stress the importance of the extraterrestrial civilization. D.To persuade people to pay more attention to radio signals. 29.What does the underlined word probably mean? A.given off B.given in C.given away D.given up 30.How did the radio telescope collect data? A.By recording the data every30minutes. B.By staying away at a different direction. C.By analyzing the direction of the signals. D.By focusing on some random radio noise. 31.What do we know about the radio signal found by Shane Smith? A.It was sent by some space aliens. B.It probably originated from Proxima Centauri. C.It was noticed as soon as it was observed. D.It changed rapidly with the passing of time. D Japan's biggest airline is betting that the future of travel isn't traveling at all.For the last month,a married couple has been interacting with a robot--called an Avatar-that controlled by their daughter hundreds of miles away.Made by ANA Holdings Inc.,it look like a vacuum cleaner with an iPad attached.But the screen displays the daughter's face they chat,and its wheels let her move about the house as though she's really there. "Virtual travel”is nothing new,of course.Story-tellers,travel writers and artists have been stimulating the senses of armchair tourists for centuries.It's only in recent decade the frequent,safe travel has become available to the non-wealthy.Yet even as the world's middle classes climb out of the armchair and into economy-class seat,there are signs of a post-travel society emerging.Concerns about environmental sustainability cause loss to airlines which release much carbon.And the aging of abundant societies is both restricting physical travel and creating demand for alternative ways to experience the world.For the travel industry, virtual reality offers an attractive response to these trends. Of course,new technologies encourage far-out claims.ANA doesn't plan to start selling Avatars until next year.Profits,too,will probably be difficult to make:By one estimate.the global market for this kind of technology will be worth only about $300 million by 2023. By contrast,ANA's traditional travel business brought more than S19 billion last year. But if the business value for virtual vacations is still weak,the market for technologies that bridge physical distances between families and coworkers seems likely to only expand. ANA's robots may not replace its airplanes any time soon,but they'll almost certainly be a part of travel's high-tech future. 32.What is the function of Para 1? A.To show that Japanese are crazy about travel B.To suggest the couple are very satisfied with the robot. C.To indicate virtual travel begins to enter people's real life. D.To express the close relationship between the couple and their daughter. 33.Which of the followings correct about the post-travel society? A.More and more people lose interest in travel. B.People are worried about the air pollution caused by airlines. C.Frequent and safe travel has become available to the ordinary people. D.Storytellerstravewritersandartistshavebeendiscussingitforcentures. 34.According to the passage,what is the possible future of Avatars? A.They will be put on the market soon. B.They will bring ANA a lot of money. C.They will replace ANA's airplanes soon. D.They are almost unavoidable in travel's future. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Easy travel is on the way. B.Your next travel might be virtual. C.Benefits of virtual travel. D.Disappearance of air travel. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 I've been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots.As a foreigner,I couldn't careless about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine_36 So I always attempt to find something that's appealing and fun yet represents the local culture,and that offers an interaction with the locals.

Real scientists look to the sky,using powerful radio telescopes, hopping to hear even a whisper of a radio signal from one of our neighbor planets. Indeed,are centre port of a transmission originating from Proxima Centauri,the closest tar to our own,was reported by the British newspaper The Guardian in December.The source of the story is not a scientific paper,but instead it seems to have been leaked by an unknown source.The claim of a signal,if it turns out to be truly a sign of extraterrestrial intelligence,would be one of the most important discoveries of all times. In April and May of 2019,the 64-meter-wide Parkes radio telescope,located in Australia, was recording radio transmissions from the direction of nearby star Proxima Centauri Over the course of hours,the telescope documented data from the stare very half an hour,before staying away to look at a different direction.This procedure,called “nodding” was used to make sure that any observed signal is coming from a particular direction,rather than just random radio noise. This signal was not immediately noticed;it was over a year after the data was recorded that Shane Smith,an assistant with Breakthrough Listen,found it buried in the telescope's recordings.This was in late October 2020.So,what exactly was seen?It was a radio signal at a single frequency,specifically 980.002MHz.It was observed to have originated in a small patch of the sky,about half the diameter（直径）of the full moon,centred on Proxima Centauri. 28.Why is the movie Contact mentioned in Paragraph 1? A.To show the close connection between fiction and signals. B.To introduce the topic of a radio signal from a near planet. C.To stress the importance of the extraterrestrial civilization. D.To persuade people to pay more attention to radio signals. 29.What does the underlined word probably mean? A.given off B.given in C.given away D.given up 30.How did the radio telescope collect data? A.By recording the data every30minutes. B.By staying away at a different direction. C.By analyzing the direction of the signals. D.By focusing on some random radio noise. 31.What do we know about the radio signal found by Shane Smith? A.It was sent by some space aliens. B.It probably originated from Proxima Centauri. C.It was noticed as soon as it was observed. D.It changed rapidly with the passing of time. 【答案】BCAB 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍并分析了来自外太空的无线电信号。 24.【答案】B 【解析】写作意图题。根据第一段最后一句"Real scientists look to the sky, using powerful radio telescopes, hoping to hear even a whisper of a radio signal from one of our neighbor planets.”可知，第一段提到电影《超时空接触》是为了引入本文话题，即讨论来自太空近行星的信号。故选B。 25.【答案】C 【解析】词义猜测题。根据句意这个故事的来源不是一篇科学论文，而是似乎是被一个不明来源泄露的。如果信号真的被证明是外星智慧的标志，那么它将成为有史以来最重要的发现之一。故选C，意为露马脚。 26.【答案】A 【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的"Over the course of hours, the telescope documented data from the star every half an hour.”可知，望远镜每隔半小时记录恒星的数据。故选 A。 27.【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句"It was observed to have originated in a small patch of the sky, about half the diameter of the full moon, centred on Proxima Centauri." 可知，该无线电信号在比邻星（Proxima Centauri）的中心。故选 B。 D Japan's biggest airline is betting that the future of travel isn't traveling at all.For the last month,a married couple has been interacting with a robot--called an Avatar-that controlled by their daughter hundreds of miles away.Made by ANA Holdings Inc.,it look like a vacuum cleaner with an iPad attached.But the screen displays the daughter's face they chat,and its wheels let her move about the house as though she's really there. "Virtual travel”is nothing new,of course.Story-tellers,travel writers and artists have been stimulating the senses of armchair tourists for centuries.It's only in recent decade the frequent,safe travel has become available to the non-wealthy.Yet even as the world's middle classes climb out of the armchair and into economy-class seat,there are signs of a post-travel society emerging.Concerns about environmental sustainability cause loss to airlines which release much carbon.And the aging of abundant societies is both restricting physical travel and creating demand for alternative ways to experience the world.For the travel industry, virtual reality offers an attractive response to these trends. Of course,new technologies encourage far-out claims.ANA doesn't plan to start selling Avatars until next year.Profits,too,will probably be difficult to make:By one estimate.the global market for this kind of technology will be worth only about $300 million by 2023. By contrast,ANA's traditional travel business brought more than S19 billion last year. But if the business value for virtual vacations is still weak,the market for technologies that bridge physical distances between families and coworkers seems likely to only expand. ANA's robots may not replace its airplanes any time soon,but they'll almost certainly be a part of travel's high-tech future. 32.What is the function of Para 1? A.To show that Japanese are crazy about travel B.To suggest the couple are very satisfied with the robot. C.To indicate virtual travel begins to enter people's real life. D.To express the close relationship between the couple and their daughter. 33.Which of the followings correct about the post-travel society? A.More and more people lose interest in travel. B.People are worried about the air pollution caused by airlines. C.Frequent and safe travel has become available to the ordinary people. D.Storytellerstravewritersandartistshavebeendiscussingitforcentures. 34.According to the passage,what is the possible future of Avatars? A.They will be put on the market soon. B.They will bring ANA a lot of money. C.They will replace ANA's airplanes soon. D.They are almost unavoidable in travel's future. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Easy travel is on the way. B.Your next travel might be virtual. C.Benefits of virtual travel. D.Disappearance of air travel. 【答案】CBDB 【主旨大意】本文第一段通过一对夫妻借助一家日本公司生产的Avatar机器人成功实现虚拟旅游的例子来表明虚拟旅游已经开始进入现实，接着探讨了虚拟旅游出现的可能原因，最后指出虽然虚拟度假还没有足够的商业价值，但未来其市场需求只会有增无减。 24.【答案】C 【解析】推理判断題。根据第一段中的“For the last month, a married couple has been interacting with a robot —called an Avatar-that's controlled by their daughter hundreds of miles away. Made by ANA Holdings Inc., it looks like a vacuum cleaner with an iPad attached. But the screen displays the daughter's face as they chat, and its w heels let her move about the house as though she's really there.”（一对夫妇一直在与一个被称为“Avatar”的机器人互动，这个机器人由他们数百英里外的女儿控制。它由全日空公司生产，看起来像一个带有iPad的真空吸尘器。但这对夫妻与女儿聊天时，屏幕上显示的是女儿的脸，她可以借助机器人的轮子来回移动，就好像她真的在那里一样。）可知，Avatar机器人帮助女儿实现了虚拟旅游，作者举这个例子就是为了证明虚拟旅游已经开始进入现实生活。故选C项。 25.【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Concerns about environmental sustainability cause loss to airlines which release much carbon. And the aging of abundant societies is both restricting physical travel and creating demand for alternative ways to experience the world. For the travel industry, virtual reality offers an attractive response to these trends." （对环境可持续性的担忧正在让排放量很高的航空公司遭受损失。富裕社会的老龄化不仅限制了人们的身体旅行，也催生了用其他方式体验社会的需求。对于旅游业来说，虚拟现实对这些趋势提供了有诱人的回应。）由此推断，人们担忧航空造成的空气污染可能是虚拟旅游出现的原因。故选B项。 26.【答案】D 【解析】細芦理解題。根据最后一段中的“ANA's robots may not replace its airplanes any time soon, but they'll almost certainly be a part of travel's high-tech future." (ANA的机器人可能不会很快取代飞机，但它们几乎可以肯定地是，他们会成为高科技旅游业未来的一部分。）可知，在未来的旅行中，Avatar机器人几乎是不可避免的。故选D项。 27.【答案】B 【解析】主旨大意题。本文第一段通过一对夫妻借助一家日本公司生产的Avatar机器人成功实现虚拟旅游的例子来表明虚拟旅游已经开始进入现实，接着探讨了虚拟旅游出现的可能原因，最后指出虽然虚拟度假还没有足够的商业价值，但未来其市场需求只会有增无减。全文都是围绕虚拟旅游来写的，所以B项“你的下一次度假可能是虚拟的“最适合做本文的标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 I've been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots.As a foreigner,I couldn't careless about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine_36 So I always attempt to find something that's appealing and fun yet represents the local culture,and that offers an interaction with the locals.
