Its autumn is splendid with fall leaves, as well as migratory birds making their way south. The fall season also brings special events along the parkway like the Natchez Balloon Festival (October 18-19) and Dancing With The King (October 18-20). Big Bend National Park (Texas) The huge park often flies under the radar because it’s so far off the beaten path. But it’s worth the drive for those who enjoy wild rivers, surprising desert landscapes, and special history. By the end of September, 80-degree temperatures are the norm, especially in the high-altitude, forested Chisos Basin, located in the heart of the park. Because the rainy season lasts till September, water is still high on the Rio Grande, which means almost ideal conditions for canoe camping. White Sands National Park (New Mexico) Cooler temperatures are just one of the reasons to visit White Sands in the fall, especially for those backpack-camping the park’s wilderness trail. Another reason to visit in the fall are awesome full moons that lighten the mysterious landscapes of this New Mexico desert park. White Sands celebrates the autumn supermoons — when the celestial body appears larger than normal because it’s closer to the Earth — with Full Moon Hikes (September 18 and October 16) and Full Moon Nights that feature live outdoor music, specifically a jazz band on September 17 as well as Native American musician and storyteller Randy Granger on October 17. Capitol Reef National Park (Utah) As one of the largest national parks in the lower 48 states, Capitol Reef is never overcrowded, not even during the summer vacation season. But there’s a special reason to visit in the fall-harvest season in the fruit gardens of historic Fruita. For a small fee, visitors can self-pick the peaches, pears, and apples with ladders and fruit-picking poles provided by the Park Service. Afterward, they can enjoy the fruits of their labor at the nearby camp and picnic area. 1.What does the underlined part “flies under the radar” probably mean? A. Stands out. B. Goes unnoticed. C. Faces bad comments. D. Plays an important role. 2.What do Natchez Trace Parkway and White Sands National Park have in common? A. They both have open areas for camping. B. They both have special events in October. C. They both have amazing desert landscapes. D. They both have a history of more than 10,000 years. 3.What is special about Capitol Reef National Park? A. It is crowded in autumn. B. It is famous for fruit-planting. C. It is convenient for visitors to pick fresh fruits. D. It is the largest national park around the world. 【答案】1. B　2. B　3. C 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个可以在秋天游览的国家公园。 (1)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据划线词组后面的“because it’s so far off the beaten path”可知，这个公园在人迹罕至的地方，所以注意它的人不多，划线短语under the radar的意义为“不引起注意；不被察觉”，与go unnoticed意义一致。故选B项。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据Natchez Trace Parkway (Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee)部分的“The fall season also brings special events along the parkway like the Natchez Balloon Festival (October 18-19) and Dancing With The King (October 18-20).(秋天还会在公园大道上举办一些特别的活动，比如纳奇兹气球节（10月18日至19日）和与国王共舞（10月18日至20日）)”和 White Sands National Park (New Mexico)部分的“White Sands celebrates the autumn supermoons—when the celestial body appears larger than normal because it’s closer to the Earth — with Full Moon Hikes (September 18 and October 16) and Full Moon Nights that feature live outdoor music, specifically a jazz band on September 17 as well as Native American musician and storyteller Randy Granger on October 17.(白沙庆祝秋天的超级月亮——当天体看起来比平常更大，因为它更靠近地球——满月远足（9月18日和10月16日）和满月之夜以现场户外音乐为特色，特别是9月17日的爵士乐队和10月17日的印第安音乐家和讲故事的人兰迪格兰)”可知，这两个公园在10月都有特别的活动。故选B项。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据Capitol Reef National Park (Utah)部分的句子“But there’s a special reason to visit in the fall-harvest season in the fruit gardens of historic Fruita. For a small fee, visitors can self-pick the peaches, pears, and apples with ladders and fruit-picking poles provided by the Park Service. Afterward, they can enjoy the fruits of their labor at the nearby camp and picnic area.(但在秋收季节参观历史悠久的Fruita果园有一个特殊的原因。游客只需支付一小笔费用，就可以用公园管理局提供的梯子和水果采摘杆自行采摘桃子、梨和苹果。之后，他们可以在附近的营地和野餐区享受他们的劳动成果)”可知，Capitol Reef National Park的特别之处在于它方便游客采摘新鲜水果。故选C项。 主题语境02 人与社会-文学、艺术与体育 Passage 1 （25-26高二上·江西南昌第十中学·期中）Zurich, Switzerland’s largest city, has long been best known for its banks and how well everything works there.

But a team of scientists at Harvard University in the US has managed to build an entirely soft robot-one that draws inspiration from an octopus (章鱼). Described in science journal Nature, the “Octobot” could pave the way for more effective autonomous robots that could be used in search，rescue and exploration. “The Octobot is minimal system which may serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous robots” the study’s authors wrote. Robots built for precise, repetitive movements in a controlled environment don’t do so well on rough terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions. And they aren’t especially safe around humans, because they’re made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users. So researchers have been working on building soft robots for decades. They’re taken inspiration from nature, looking to animals from jellyfish to cockroaches, which are often made up of more flexible matter. But creating a completely soft robot remains a challenge. Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, it’s still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts, such as a source of power. “Although soft robotics is still in its early stage, it holds great promise for several applications, such as search-rescue operations and exploration,” Barbara Mazzolai and Virgilio Mattoli of the Italian Institute of Technology’ Center for Micro-BioRobotics, wrote in a comment. “Soft robots might also open up new approaches to improving wellness and quality of life.” 1.What’s the special feature of “Octobot”？ A. It’s soft. B. It’s made of metal. C. It’s very small. D. It looks like an octopus. 2.What’s the disadvantage of traditional robots? A. They’re hard to control. B. They’re too heavy to move. C. They can’t predict conditions. D. They can’t behave well all the time. 3.One of the biggest challenges is to build Octobot’s ________. A. silicone body B. complex components C. precise movements D. flexible power source 4.What’s the possible application of “Octobot”？ A. Medical research. B. Life rescue. C. Machine operation. D. House cleaning. 【答案】1. A　2. D　3. D　4. B 【解析】本文是一篇科普类说明文，文章主要介绍了章鱼机器人的优点和投入应用的可能性。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。从第一段 robots have been hard, made of metal，以及段尾has managed to build an entirely soft robot-one that draws inspiration from an octopus对比发现可知，Octobot机器人特点是它很柔软。故选A。 (2)题解析： 推理判断题。从第三段第一句Robots built for precise, repetitive movements in a controlled environment don’t do so well on rough terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions. 及本段内容可知，传统机器人无法在崎岖的地形上很好地运行，此外，由于沉重的金属部件，传统机器人可能会对人体产生伤害，据此可推断出，传统机器人的缺点是他们不能一直表现得很好。故选D。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。从倒数第二段，Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, it’s still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts, such as a source of power. 可知，即使工程师利用硅酮制造出了软体机器人的身体，但是制作柔韧性强的关键部件仍然面临巨大的挑战，比如动力来源。据此可知，最大的挑战之一是柔韧性强的动力来源，故选D。 (4)题解析： 细节理解题。从文章最后一段“Although soft robotics is still in its early stage, it holds great promise for several applications, such as search-rescue operations and exploration,”可知，尽管对软体机器人的开发和研究还处于早期阶段，但它适用于诸如搜索救援和探索等任务，故选B。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题01 阅读理解（应用文） 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 （25-26高二上·江西鹰潭余江区第一中学·期中）Fall Is the Best Time to Visit These National Parks Natchez Trace Parkway (Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee) Wandering 444 miles between the Mississippi River and Nashville, the Natchez Trace is impressive for more than 10,000 years of American history and some of the prettiest scenery in the South. Its autumn is splendid with fall leaves, as well as migratory birds making their way south. The fall season also brings special events along the parkway like the Natchez Balloon Festival (October 18-19) and Dancing With The King (October 18-20). Big Bend National Park (Texas) The huge park often flies under the radar because it’s so far off the beaten path. But it’s worth the drive for those who enjoy wild rivers, surprising desert landscapes, and special history. By the end of September, 80-degree temperatures are the norm, especially in the high-altitude, forested Chisos Basin, located in the heart of the park. Because the rainy season lasts till September, water is still high on the Rio Grande, which means almost ideal conditions for canoe camping. White Sands National Park (New Mexico) Cooler temperatures are just one of the reasons to visit White Sands in the fall, especially for those backpack-camping the park’s wilderness trail. Another reason to visit in the fall are awesome full moons that lighten the mysterious landscapes of this New Mexico desert park. White Sands celebrates the autumn supermoons — when the celestial body appears larger than normal because it’s closer to the Earth — with Full Moon Hikes (September 18 and October 16) and Full Moon Nights that feature live outdoor music, specifically a jazz band on September 17 as well as Native American musician and storyteller Randy Granger on October 17. Capitol Reef National Park (Utah) As one of the largest national parks in the lower 48 states, Capitol Reef is never overcrowded, not even during the summer vacation season.

But a team of scientists at Harvard University in the US has managed to build an entirely soft robot-one that draws inspiration from an octopus (章鱼). Described in science journal Nature, the “Octobot” could pave the way for more effective autonomous robots that could be used in search，rescue and exploration. “The Octobot is minimal system which may serve as a foundation for a new generation of completely soft, autonomous robots” the study’s authors wrote. Robots built for precise, repetitive movements in a controlled environment don’t do so well on rough terrains (地形) or in unpredictable conditions. And they aren’t especially safe around humans, because they’re made out of hard and heavy parts that could be potentially dangerous to their users. So researchers have been working on building soft robots for decades. They’re taken inspiration from nature, looking to animals from jellyfish to cockroaches, which are often made up of more flexible matter. But creating a completely soft robot remains a challenge. Even if engineers build a silicone (硅酮) body, it’s still a grand challenge to construct flexible versions of essential parts, such as a source of power. “Although soft robotics is still in its early stage, it holds great promise for several applications, such as search-rescue operations and exploration,” Barbara Mazzolai and Virgilio Mattoli of the Italian Institute of Technology’ Center for Micro-BioRobotics, wrote in a comment. “Soft robots might also open up new approaches to improving wellness and quality of life.” 1.What’s the special feature of “Octobot”？ A. It’s soft. B. It’s made of metal. C. It’s very small. D. It looks like an octopus. 2.What’s the disadvantage of traditional robots? A. They’re hard to control. B. They’re too heavy to move. C. They can’t predict conditions. D. They can’t behave well all the time. 3.One of the biggest challenges is to build Octobot’s ________. A. silicone body B. complex components C. precise movements D. flexible power source 4.What’s the possible application of “Octobot”？ A. Medical research. B. Life rescue. C. Machine operation. D. House cleaning. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
