 Many objects in the universe are invisible^* , but they send radio waves. The radio telescope^* thus appeared, and it is considered one of the greatest inventions in the twentieth century. Reber built the world’s first radio telescope in 1937. Ryle and Hewish developed radio telescope systems for the location of weak radio sources, and they shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974.

A radio telescope is usually made up of:

◆One or more antennas to collect the radio waves. Most antennas are made in the shape of a dish to collect and reflect^* the radio waves to the sub-reflector, in the same way as a curved mirror focuses visible light to one point.

◆A receiver and amplifier to receive the radio waves from the sub-reflector, and make these weak radio waves strong enough to be recorded and turned into electronic signals^*. To make an amplifier sensitive enough, it is usually cooled to very low temperatures (e. g. as low as -270℃).

◆A recorder to keep a record of the electronic signals. Most radio telescopes today keep the signals to the computer’s memory disk for astronomers to analyze later.

Radio wavelengths are much longer than those of visible light, and the radio waves from deep space are always weak. To catch these waves, radio telescopes usually have huge antennas. The sizes of most antennas in use today are around 50 to 300 metres in diameter. The antenna of FAST in Guizhou, China, the latest and largest radio telescope in the world, is 500 metres in diameter, as large as the size of 30 football fields.

To avoid interferences, and keep the telescopes sensitive, radio telescopes are built in places where there are no human radio waves or electronic signals. For example, FAST is 5 kilometres away from the closest village and 25 kilometres away from the nearest town.

Radio telescopes create pictures of the sky, not in visible light, but in radio waves. This is extremely useful, because there are objects that can’t be seen, objects that we wouldn’t even know were there without radio telescopes.

1.Radio telescopes help collect _________ from the universe. 

A.light         B.objects        C.radio waves       D.visible signals

2.Most antennas of radio telescopes are made in the shape of a dish to _________. 

A.make the antennas strong enough

B.increase the number of radio waves

C.turn radio waves into electronic signals

D.focus radio waves on the sub-reflector

3.The underlined word “interferences” in the passage refers to _________. 

A.the noises made by villagers and animals

B.the sounds from the radios and televisions

C.the people who go to Guizhou to watch FAST work

D.the radio waves and electronic signals from humans

C

Smile Train is a charity(慈善团体) that helps the millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect(缺陷). The defect happens when a baby’s top lip or mouth doesn’t form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.

Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.

A Smile Train doctor from the UK said,“Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted(收养)by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available.”

1.Smile Train is a charity which _________. 

A.provides food and medical care for poor children

B.raises money for all the doctors working in the UK

C.offers free medical help to children with the facial defect

D.gives children without parents new hope and a new beginning

2.The underlined word “abandoned” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _________. 

A.given up           B.dressed up           C.called up         D.brought up

3.What did the doctor from the UK think of his volunteer work?

A.Dangerous.         B.Surprising.           C.Relaxing.        D.Valuable.

4.It can be inferred from the passage that _________. 

A.children with the facial defect are becoming more ashamed than before

B.more doctors are trained to help children with the facial defect

C.fewer baby boys with the facial defect are operated on than girls

D.doctors in Smile Train are always well paid for doing the operations

What do you think of black cats？Are they unluckier than cats of other colors？Many people in Western countries think so．Scientists at the University of California，Berkeley （UC Berkeley），did a study on cat colours and people’s understandings of cat personalities．

The study found that people do judge（判断） cat personalities by color．Scientists did a survey on the Internet．There were 49statements （描述） matching five cat colorings with 10personalities．People think orange and bi﹣coloured （双色的） cats are friendly，tri﹣coloured （三色的） cats are not generous，and white cats are calm，lazy and shy．As for black cats，people think they don’t have special personalities．

But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets？People think black cats have less special personalities，which might be because of their bad reputation （口碑）．They think black cats may bring bad luck，especially at Halloween．Movies and television shows also make people believe that．

Although people have these ideas，UC Berkeley scientists give another reason：people don’t think black cats are pretty enough．After all，nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats．”You can’t judge a cat by its colour，because it’s the personality of the cat，not the colour，that will let you know if the cat is right for you，”Cathy Marden，a scientist said．

A)请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中第1-10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

Do you know about the Niagara Escarpment(断崖) not far from the Niagara Falls? It’s a long steep slope(陡坡) that runs through the USA and Canada. It became one of the World Biosphere Reserves in 1990. It’s the 12^th World Biosphere Reserves in Canada. The government has done a lot to protect this area since then.

Earlier this month, our school went on a hiking trip to this beautiful place. It was a cold, cloudy and windy day, so we wore more to stay warm. We were divided into two groups and didn’t go on the same route. The whole escarpment is 725 km long. But we only covered(走完) 8 km in about four hours.

My favourite part of the trip was the cave (山洞). The cave has many different strange rocks. Some were huge while some were small. We climbed down into the rocks with the help of our teachers. The rocks were steep and slippery (滑的) because they were covered with wet leaves. It was fun and exciting.

Another exciting moment was lunch. After walking 5 km without any rest, we were hungry and tired. When our teacher finally said we could stop to have lunch, we were very excited. We had a picnic by a river.

After all, this trip was a little different from the ones I had experienced. It was more natural with lots of caves and rocks on the way, which made the trip harder. But it was great exercise.

Hiking in a place like this made us closer to nature. What fun we had on the way！

B) 请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填入所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为1-10的相应位置上。

You don’t want to learn the hard way!” I didn’t know (3)w_________   that meant. I thought she just wanted me to (4)s_________ at home.

Many years later I had three teenagers of my own. They thought they (5)k_________ everything. I would say the (6)s_________ things to them like my mom. That’s when I first saw it. My mother wasn’t trying to make me stay at home. She was (7)t_________ to help me.

Why do we always have to learn things “the hard way”? Why can’t we just accept our elders’ wisdom? It’s a good lesson for anyone. Clearly, I still haven’t learned it.

Yesterday, I stepped out of the shower when I heard my cell phone (8)r_________ in the kitchen. Grabbing a towel, I ran through the house. I grabbed the phone and hit my (9)l_________ foot against the table. The X-ray showed that I’d broken two toes(脚趾).

We all need to (10)s_________ ourselves down once in a while, before something bad does it for us. My mother was right about a lot of things. I wish I could have told her.
