What Elon Musk has built on the remote mudflats (泥滩) at the southern tip of Texas is astonishing: huge metal structures, fuel storage tanks and a silver rocket—all fronted by neon letters that spell out “Starbase”.
But can SpaceX coexist with the original feathered inhabitants on the lower Gulf coast? Environmentalists from Brownsville to Washington, D.C. are protesting his ambitious vision to build, test and launch next-generation rockets in this fragile ecosystem.
“It’s 24/7. The lights are really bright out here at night. I wouldn’t want to be nesting near any of this if I were a bird,” says Stephanie Bilodeau, a conservation bird biologist with a non-profit programme. “It doesn’t look like much, these vast mudflats,” she says, scanning the wetland, “but it’s undeniably important for shorebirds. The best habitat is right here.”
Less than 100 yards behind her, a massive heavy-lift crane (吊车) is preparing the site for the next test launch. When Musk broke ground here in 2014, the fact that he was sandwiched between the Lower Rio Grande National Wildlife Refuge and a group of local residents didn’t cause alarm. Now it does.
His original plans were to test and launch the slimmer Falcon 9 rocket a dozen times a year to launch satellites into orbit. But his plans have expanded—not surprising for Musk, who also owns the electric car company, Tesla. Today, he’s using this limited area of land to build and test his Super Heavy-Starship model. “Anytime you have progress, there’s nothing that doesn’t come with some downside,” Musk told the local official.
In April, NASA awarded SpaceX a $2.9 billion contract to build a Starship to take astronauts to the moon, though the contract has since been put on hold due to environmental concerns. SpaceX activities are partly supervised by Cameron County in Texas. The top elected official there, County Judge Eddie Trevino Jr., says they both should pay closer attention to private space company. “We probably weren’t doing what we should have been, so I understand the public’s concern and we’re trying to do a better job going forward.”
( )1.What does the underlined word “inhabitants” in the second paragraph refer to?
A.Locals. B.Astronauts.
C.Birds. D.Fishes.
( )2.What is the purpose of quoting Stephanie Bilodeau in Paragraph 3?
A.To evaluate the overall effects of SpaceX.
B.To introduce the environmental protection efforts.
C.To explain the significance of the wetland for shorebirds.
D.To compare various habitats in Texas.
( )3.Which of the following words can best describe Elon Musk?
A.Hopeful and flexible.
B.Ambitious but careless.
C.Innovative but unreliable.
D.Aggressive and confident.
( )4.What might the local officials do in the future?
A.Stop funding Elon Musk.
B.Monitor SpaceX development.
C.Cooperate with NASA.
D.Prioritize public opinions.
●Ⅵ 阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
How to succeed in science
To succeed in science, you need a lot more than luck. In my view, you have to combine intelligence with willingness and not to follow conventions when they block your path forward. Thus, these have come to be my rules for success.
1.
That might sound proud, but the fact is that you must always turn to people who are brighter than yourself. It’s like playing any game. Even as a child, I never wanted to play games with anyone who was as bad as I was. If you win, it gives you no pleasure. And in the game of science or life, the highest goal isn’t simply to win; it’s to win something really difficult. 2.
Take risks.
3. If you are going to make a huge jump in science, you will very likely be unqualified to succeed by definition. Besides, you even have to be prepared to disbelieve your scientific heroes. This can be more than personally upsetting.
Never do anything that bores you.
My experience in science is that someone is always telling you to do things, and then leaving you alone. 4. In fact, I even find it hard to do well in something I like.
It’s very hard to succeed if you don’t want to be with other scientists—you have to go to key meetings where you find key facts that would have escaped you. And you have to chat with your competitors, even if you find them unpleasant. So my final rule is: 5.
A.To make a huge success, a scientist has to be prepared to get into deep trouble.
B.Meet challenges with great courage.
C.Put another way, it’s to go somewhere beyond your ability and come out on top.
D.Be sure you always have someone to save you from a deep mess.
E.I’m not good enough to do well in something I dislike.
F.If you can’t stand to be with your real peers, get out of science.
G.Avoid foolish people.

●Ⅸ 读后续写(25分)
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’m Tia, a passionate teenage girl, living next door to the corner of 71st Street. Most folks find there’s nothing there, just an empty lot. But to me, it’s like a wide-open treasure box. Stepping into it, I feel like leaping into a sea of green. The tall grass with butterflies gathering around, smells clean and fresh, and I wonder why I’m the only one who’s thankful for this place.
One evening, Mama said, “Tia, the city wants to turn that corner of yours into a parking lot.” I stopped in my tracks. “No! They can’t do that!”
“Tia, you have to make them see what you see. No one ever got any place by sitting back and staying quiet.” That night, I lay awake thinking for a long time. “I’ve got to do something.”
Early the next morning I dragged a chair down to the corner with a big cardboard on which I’d painted “No Parking Lot! Save Our Nature” in large letters. I sat down and waited. Most people passed by, paying no attention to me. My friend Tanya asked me what I was doing, and I told her. Then came Mrs DiRisio, a beauty shop owner, who angrily waved her hand at my sign, saying, “My customers need a place to park.” But I didn’t move. Then I noticed a woman down the street taking pictures of my corner. She walked over to me, smiling, “I’m Sara Bennett. Can I talk to you?” I nodded. I started talking, and Ms Bennett scribbled on a notepad. “A walking path would be nice, maybe a vegetable garden. And a bench, so people could sit down and listen to the birds singing.” I was surprised at myself, at how many ideas I’d got for this corner.
The next morning, my brother burst into my room with a morning paper. “Fighting for Nature on the Corner of 71st” was the title of the article, and along with it was a picture of me!
After breakfast, my brother, Mama and I dragged our chairs and signs back to the corner.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
To my amazement, I saw some familiar figures coming towards us.
Paragraph 2:
A year later, the sign on the corner made it official.

Ⅴ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了埃隆·马斯克在得克萨斯州建立了SpaceX 火箭基地,对当地的鸟类的生存造成威胁,引发了环境保护主义者的不满。
1.C 词义猜测题。由画线词所在句“…the original feathered inhabitants on the lower Gulf coast?”以及第三段中的“…but it’s undeniably important for shorebirds. The best habitat is right here.”(……但这块地对于滨鸟来说毋庸置疑很重要。这儿就是最好的栖息地。)可推知,inhabitants在此处指鸟,故选C。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第三段“‘It’s 24/7. The lights are really bright out here at night. I wouldn’t want to be nesting near any of this if I were a bird,’ says Stephanie Bilodeau, a conservation bird biologist with a non-profit programme. ‘It doesn’t look like much, these vast mudflats,’ she says, scanning the wetland, ‘but it’s undeniably important for shorebirds. The best habitat is right here.’”可知,此段介绍了火箭基地对当地鸟类造成的不良影响,因此引用Stephanie Bilodeau说的话的目的是要解释这块湿地对鸟类的重要性,故选C。
3.D 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“But his plans have expanded—not surprising for Musk, who also owns the electric car company, Tesla. Today, he’s using this limited area of land to build and test his Super Heavy-Starship model.”(但他的计划已经扩张了——对于同时是特斯拉电动汽车公司的拥有者马斯克来说,这不奇怪。今天,他正在利用这片有限的土地建造和测试他的超重型星舰模型。)可知,马斯克的计划不断扩展,从最初的Falcon 9火箭到现在的超重型星舰模型,体现了他的进取心和野心。根据“Anytime you have progress, there’s nothing that doesn't come with some downside…”(在任何时候你取得进展的同时,都会有某些弊端……)可知,这句话表明马斯克对技术进步充满信心,即使面临环境问题和公众的担忧,他依然坚持推进项目,体现了他的自信。故选D项。
4.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“SpaceX activities are partly supervised by Cameron County in Texas.”(SpaceX活动在部分程度上由得克萨斯州的卡梅伦县进行监管。)和“We probably weren’t doing what we should have been, so I understand the public’s concern and we’re trying to do a better job going forward.”(可能我们之前没有做好该做的事,所以我理解公众的忧虑。我们现在正尽力更好地开展我们的工作。)可推知,当地官员在未来可能要对SpaceX在当地的火箭基地发展项目进行监控,故选B。
Ⅵ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何在科学上取得成功的一些经验和方法。
1.G 空处是段落标题,需统领段落内容,且需和其他段落标题一样使用祈使句。根据后文“That might sound proud, but the fact is that you must always turn to people who are brighter than yourself. It’s like playing any game. Even as a child, I never wanted to play games with anyone who was as bad as I was.”可知,本段的建议与和比自己聪明的人相处相关,因此G项“Avoid foolish people.”符合语境,契合段落内容,其中的foolish和后文的brighter相对应。故选G。
2.C 前文“And in the game of science or life, the highest goal isn’t simply to win; it’s to win something really difficult.”解释科学的最高目标是什么,因此C项“Put another way, it’s to go somewhere beyond your ability and come out on top.”符合语境,进一步解释了科学的最高目标,承接前文。故选C。
3.A 空处位于段首,应该引出段落内容。后文“If you are going to make a huge jump in science, you will very likely be unqualified to succeed by definition. Besides, you even have to be prepared to disbelieve your scientific heroes. This can be more than personally upsetting.”主要介绍了在科学上获得成功的困难,因此A项“To make a huge success, a scientist has to be prepared to get into deep trouble.”符合语境,点明要做好陷入大麻烦的准备,其中的deep trouble呼应后文描述的困难。故选A。
4.E 段落标题“Never do anything that bores you.”建议避免做让自己厌烦的事情,后文“In fact, I even find it hard to do well in something I like.”分享做好自己喜欢的事情也很困难,因此E项“I’m not good enough to do well in something I dislike.”符合语境,分享很难做好不喜欢的事情,呼应标题,后文是对选项内容的延伸。故选E。
5.F 前文“It’s very hard to succeed if you don’t want to be with other scientists—you have to go to key meetings where you find key facts that would have escaped you. And you have to chat with your competitors, even if you find them unpleasant.”说明想在科学上取得成功必须和他人协作,因此F项“If you can’t stand to be with your real peers, get out of science.”符合语境,点明无法和他人待在一起就应放弃科学,是对前文内容的总结。故选F。
Ⅶ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了西溪国家湿地公园。
1.an 考查冠词。place为可数名词,空处应用不定冠词作限定词,且空后形容词exceptional以元音音素开头。故填an。
2.truly 考查副词。修饰形容词unique应用副词truly,故填truly。
3.for 考查介词。(be) famous for是固定短语,意为“因为……而出名”。故填for。
4.and 考查连词。分析句子可知,consists和features并列作谓语,因此,空处应用并列连词and。故填and。
5.is occupied 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,所填动词是句子的谓语。结合语境可知,时态用一般现在时,且主语nearly 70% of the park与动词occupy之间为被动关系,主语由“百分数+of+单数可数名词”构成,被视为第三人称单数。故填is occupied。
6.dividing 考查非谓语动词。空处为非谓语动词作状语,动词divide与其逻辑主语these waterways为主动关系,应用现在分词形式。故填dividing。
7.has established 考查动词时态和主谓一致。分析句子可知,所填动词是句子的谓语。结合时间状语recently可知,应用现在完成时,主语the government为第三人称单数。故填has established。
8.located 考查非谓语动词。空处为非谓语动词作后置定语,修饰the Wetland Science Exhibition Hall,动词locate与其之间为被动关系,应用过去分词形式。故填located。
9.to see 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,空处应是动词不定式作名词way的后置定语,the way to do sth意为“做某事的方式/方法”。故填to see。
10.that 考查表语从句。分析句子可知,“…if you haven’t seen them, you haven’t really seen Hangzhou.”为表语从句,从句结构和句意完整,应用that作连接词。故填that。
Ⅷ.One possible version:
NOTICE
Dear residents,
We all hope to have a safe and harmonious living environment, recognizing its importance to our well-being. In order to effectively eliminate fire hazards, our community has worked out a policy that prohibits electric bikes from entering buildings, a measure designed to prevent potential fire incidents.
For the convenience of everyone, we have set up a fixed storage area in the underground garage. It is necessary for electric bikes to be placed in designated locations and charged at designated charging stations. We believe everyone will determinedly obey the rule, as it is beneficial to everyone.

Ⅸ.【思路点拨】 本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了71号街道的拐角可以让蒂亚感受到自然的美,但是有人想要将这个街角改造成停车场。在妈妈的建议下,蒂亚采取行动,在大纸板写明自己的观点,放在街角处。贝内特女士给蒂亚拍了照片,并与蒂亚进行了交谈。第二天早上,蒂亚的照片出现在报纸上,早餐后,蒂亚和家人将椅子和大纸板拖回街角。
【详解】
1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“令我惊讶的是,我看到一些熟悉的身影向我们走来。”可知,第一段可描写越来越多的邻居出现,为自己需要自然而发声,蒂亚发表演讲,尝试拯救自然,得到了大家的掌声。
②由第二段首句内容“一年后,街角的标志正式生效。”可知,第二段可描写街角的具体样子,以及人们在这里享受自然。
2. 续写线索:人们加入—蒂亚发表演讲—得到掌声—街角标志生效—街角的样子—人们在街角享受自然。
One possible version:
To my amazement, I saw some familiar figures coming towards us.My friend Tanya and her family, each carrying a chair (独立主格结构), joined us! “Tia, you’ve got some good ideas for this corner. We need a little nature around here.” More and more neighbours showed up, waving signs and making noise (现在分词作状语), including Mrs DiRisio. Mama inspired me to make a speech to the city call. I did so days later. “If this is the last little bit of nature in our neighbourhood (条件状语从句),” I spoke,“doesn’t it make sense to try and save it?” Everyone applauded at the end of my speech.
A year later, the sign on the corner made it official.Now we’ve got a walking path that curves and winds its way through the 71st Street Nature Preserve (定语从句). We’ve got a stone bench and plans for a vegetable garden. School groups come here to collect leaves and study the insects and birds (不定式作目的状语). Folks come here to walk, run or just sit (不定式作目的状语), talking, laughing and listening to (现在分词作状语) birds’ singing. My corner isn’t just mine anymore, but I’m more than happy to share it.
