一．科普知识
1．Scientists say it could be 1 ,500 years before humans make contact（联系）with aliens（外星人） ,or for them to communicate with us.Astronomers from Cornell University in the USA combined（结合）two theories about the possibility of life existing on other planets to form a new one.One of these theories is the Fermi Paradox described by physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950.This says that while billions of Earth﹣like planets exist in our galaxy（银河系） ,not one has made contact with Earth yet.The other is the mediocrity principle which suggests that because there is life on Earth ,it will exist on Earth﹣like planets throughout the universe.
Researcher Evan Solomonides will soon present a research paper on his theory.He said , "We haven't heard from aliens yet ,as space is a big place ,but that doesn't mean no one is out there "According to Solomonides ,aliens could have received signals（信号）from Earth ,but they may not have decoded（破解） them.He said they would need to decode and analyze 3 ,000 human languages to understand any messages.Signals from Earth have only reached about 8 ,500 stars ,the Milky Way galaxy alone has 200 billion stars.Solomonides said , "If we stop listening or looking ,we may miss the signals ,so we should keep looking.

2．Let's suppose you have ,er… ,﹩40 ,000 to spend ,and you're out shopping for a shiny new car．You've never really cared about cars that much before．But now ,you can afford one．So when someone mentions a certain kind of car﹣one that you've never heard of before﹣you're interested．
Suddenly ,the car is everywhere．It's parked in front of your house．Your boss's husband has one．You see two of them next to you in traffic on your way home from work．The car is even in those advertisements during the baseball．So what exactly is happening here？Does this car suddenly control your mind？Or is your mind playing tricks on you？

Now if you've done research on Baader﹣Meinhof ,you might be a little surprised ,because the phenomenon wasn't named after the person that researched it ,or anything like that．Instead ,it was named after a singing group ,active in the 1970s．A music website was the surprising start of the name．In 1994 ,a person called the frequency illusion the "Baader﹣Meinhof phenomenon"on the website after hearing Bamder﹣Meinbof twice in 24 hours．The phenomenon has nothing to do with the group．But don't be surprised if the name starts popping up everywhere you turn．

6．The sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville made everybody sad as he was a nice and respected man and had made many friends in Dartmoor during the two years he was at Baskerville Hall.

五．社会
8．When you buy fresh﹣cut flowers ,do you think about where they came from？You might think they were grown somewhere nearby.In fact ,the cut flower trade is more and more international.Today ,thanks to airplanes and high﹣tech cooling systems ,even the most delicate（脆弱的） flower can be exported ,and sold in a flower shop thousands of kilometres away from where it was grown.
The Netherlands（荷兰） controls the world cut flower trade.It deals with 60 percent of the world's cut flowers.And its auction（拍卖） houses are very large indeed﹣﹣﹣Aalsmeer ,near Amsterdam ,is the largest flower market in the world.About 120 soccer fields would fill its main building.Nineteen million flowers are sold here every day ,including roses ,lilies ,and of course ,tulips.
The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower types.Dutch（荷兰的） companies and the government invest（投资） a large amount of money in flower research.Their scientists look for ways to lengthen a flower's vase life ,to strengthen flowers to prevent them from being damaged while traveling ,and also to strengthen the natural pleasant smell of the flowers.
Although Netherlands plays a lead role in the flower market ,there are many places with a Dotter climate for growing flowers ,and the climate of Ecuador（厄瓜多尔） is almost perfect.Mauricio Davalos is the man who starts Ecuador's flower industry. "Our biggest edge is nature ," he says. "Our roses are the best in the world." With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day ,Ecuador's roses are known for their large heads and long ,straight stems.Every year ,Ecuador sells about 500 million flowers to the U.S.alone.The industry has brought work chances and a stronger economy to areas of the country. "My family has TV now.There are radios" says Yolanda Quishpe ,20 ,who picked roses for four years.
To others ,the increasingly international flower trade is very bad news.In recent years ,local growers in the U.S.faced huge competition from international flower companies ,and many lost their business.Lina Hale ,an independent rose grower in California ,said her father had foreseen the situation in the 1980s. "I see a freight（货运） train coming down the track ," he warned her , "and it's coming straight towards us."

（1）What is the main idea of the first paragraph？ 　 　
A.Fresh﹣cut flowers can't survive a long trip.
B.You should buy flowers from local flower shops.
C.Flowers you buy may come from faraway places.
D.It's important to think about where you buy your flowers.

A.Dutch companies and the government.
B.Airplane and high﹣tech cooling system.
C.American companies and their government.
D.Ecuador's local flower growers and pickers.
（3）The word edge in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to 　 　.
A.end
B.difference
C.corner
D.advantage
（4）What did Lina Hale's father mean when he said , "I see a freight（货运） train coming down the truck"？ 　 　
A.He thought customers wouldn't want roses.
B.He knew that his business would be influenced.
C.He could actually see a train coming towards him.

14．The Tokyo Olympic Games will start on July 23 ,2021 because of the ongoing COVID﹣19.The Olympics will still be called Tokyo 2020.
Japan ,the host country of the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games ,has promised to hold "the most innovative（创新的） games ever organized." On July 24 ,2019 ,the Olympic Committee expressed its first bright idea﹣﹣ medals were made from old phones and other electronics.
The idea was first introduced in 2016 by a group of young Japanese students.They wanted to raise awareness（ 意 识 ） of the serious electronic waste produced by the country's tech﹣loving people who change their electronics very often.Japanese people threw away 650 ,000 tons of electronics every year ,only about 100 ,000 tons of which are recycled.
To help the environment and raise the awareness ,the Olympic Committee started the "Everyone's Medal" program in February 2017.The program encouraged people to drop off used electronics at specific location bins set up by Japan's Environmental Sanitation Center.It seems to be hard to gather the 8 tons of materials needed to make the 5 ,000 Olympic and Paralympic medals.However ,they had nothing to worry about.By the time the collection ended in March 2019 ,around 79 ,000 tons of used cellphones and other small electronics had been collected.In total ,the program got 32 kilos of gold ,3 ,500 kilos of silver ,and 2 ,200 kilos of bronze﹣﹣more than enough to make every medal.
The Olympic Committee hopes the Tokyo 2020 medals will help raise awareness of the alarming increase（ 增 加 ） in electronic waste﹣﹣not just in Japan but worldwide﹣﹣and cause people to rethink whether they need to change their electronics unnecessarily.As Kohei Uchimura ,who got three Olympic gold medals ,said： "Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic medals will be made out of people's thoughts for avoiding waste.I think there is an important message in this for the future."
Though Japan is the first Olympic host country to make all the medals using metals from used electronics ,it is not the first to think of the idea.Brazil made about 30% of the silver and bronze medals for the 2016 Summer Olympics from recycled materials.

（1）The Tokyo Olympic Games will 　 　.
A.start on July 23 ,2022
B.be called Tokyo 2021
C.not take place any more
D.be put off till 2021
（2）It' s suggested by the Olympic Committee that used electronics should be dropped into 　 　.
A.specific location bins
B.kitchen waste bins
C.harmful waste bins

15．"Without music ,life would be a mistake ," famous German philosopher（哲学家） Friendrich Nietzsche said over a century ago.Music is a big part of our lives.But in recent years ,some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets.
For example ,Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired（解雇 ） over 1 ,000 teachers.Among them ,10 percent of the teachers taught art or music ,according to The Washington Times.In fact ,this is not just a problem in the US.In other countries ,such as China and the UK ,music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science ,math and history.That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill ,and it isn't tested.Many students are busy with schoolwork ,so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.
However ,learning music is beneficial（有益的） in many ways.
When playing music ,you need different abilities to work together.It is not as simple as it looks ,according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together ,an early childhood music development program.For example ,when playing the piano ,people see music notes and decode them in their brains.They also use their fingers to make sounds.You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
Music has a special connection with science as well.You can see that many scientists are good at playing music：Einstein played the violin ,and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.

（1）What's the main idea of Paragraph 4？ 　 　
A.Playing the piano needs people to use fingers to make sounds.
B.Decoding music notes is needed while we are playing music.
C.Different abilities are needed to work together while we are playing music.
D.Playing the piano needs people to see music notes.
（2）How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage？ 　 　
A.One.
B.Two.
C.Three.
D.Four.
（3）What's the writer's opinion according to this passage？ 　 　
A.Music is as simple as it looks.
B.Music isn't a very important life skill for us.
C.Music classes should be cut in some schools.
D.Music is a big part of our lives.

一．科普知识
1．Scientists say it could be 1 ,500 years before humans make contact（联系）with aliens（外星人） ,or for them to communicate with us.Astronomers from Cornell University in the USA combined（结合）two theories about the possibility of life existing on other planets to form a new one.One of these theories is the Fermi Paradox described by physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950.This says that while billions of Earth﹣like planets exist in our galaxy（银河系） ,not one has made contact with Earth yet.The other is the mediocrity principle which suggests that because there is life on Earth ,it will exist on Earth﹣like planets throughout the universe.
Researcher Evan Solomonides will soon present a research paper on his theory.He said , "We haven't heard from aliens yet ,as space is a big place ,but that doesn't mean no one is out there "According to Solomonides ,aliens could have received signals（信号）from Earth ,but they may not have decoded（破解） them.He said they would need to decode and analyze 3 ,000 human languages to understand any messages.Signals from Earth have only reached about 8 ,500 stars ,the Milky Way galaxy alone has 200 billion stars.Solomonides said , "If we stop listening or looking ,we may miss the signals ,so we should keep looking. "

（1）According to scientists ,when can humans and aliens communicate with each other？ 　C　
A.About 3000 years later.
B.About in the year 8500
C.About 1500 years later.
D.About in the year 2022.
（2）Which of the following theories doesn't express the existing of aliens？ 　D　
A.Fermi Paradox.
B.Evan Solomaonides's theory.
C.The mediocrity principle
D.Earth﹣like planet's theory.
（3）According to Evan Solomaonides ,humans haven't heard from aliens because 　D　.
A.there is no aliens in space
B.humans give up contacting with aliens
C they couldn't receive the signals from Earth
D.it takes time for aliens to understand human languages
（4）What's Evan Solomaonides's attitude towards contacting aliens？ 　C　
A.Being helpless.
B.Being hopeless.
C.Being hopeful.
D.Being cheerful
文章主旨：本文主要介绍了几种说明外星人可能存在的几种理论。
答案详解：（1）C.细节理解题。根据Scientists say it could be 1 ,500 years before humans make contact with aliens（外星人） ,可知科学家们说 ,人类可能要1500年后才能与外星人接触 ,所以选 C。
（2）D.细节判断题。根据 One of these theories is the Fermi Paradox described by physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950.This says that while billions of Earth﹣like planets exist in our galaxy（银河系） ,not one has made contact with Earth yet.The other is the mediocrity principle which suggests that because there is life on Earth ,it will exist on Earth﹣like planets throughout the universe.其中一个理论是物理学家恩里科•费米在1950年描述的费米悖论。这说明 ,虽然我们的银河系中存在着数十亿颗类地行星 ,但还没有一颗行星与地球接触过。另一个是平庸原则 ,它认为因为地球上有生命 ,它将存在于整个宇宙的类地行星上。以及According to Solomonides ,aliens could have received signals（信号）from Earth ,but they may not have decoded（破解） them.根据索洛莫尼德斯的说法 ,外星人可能已经收到了来自地球的信号 ,但他们可能还没有解码。可知选项ABC都是在表达外星人的存在 ,所以选 D。
（3）D.细节理解题。根据According to Solomonides ,aliens could have received signals（信号）from Earth ,but they may not have decoded（破解） them.可知根据索洛莫尼德斯的说法 ,外星人可能已经收到了来自地球的信号 ,但他们可能还没有解码。因此可知据埃文•索罗曼尼德斯说 ,人类没有外星人的消息是因为外星人理解人类语言需要时间。所以选 D。
（4）C.推理判断题。根据 Solomonides said , "If we stop listening or looking ,we may miss the signals ,so we should keep looking. "可知索洛莫尼德斯说："如果我们停止听或看 ,我们可能会错过信号 ,所以我们应该继续看。"因此可知埃文•索罗曼尼德斯对接触外星人的态度是充满希望的。所以选 C。
2．Let's suppose you have ,er… ,﹩40 ,000 to spend ,and you're out shopping for a shiny new car．You've never really cared about cars that much before．But now ,you can afford one．So when someone mentions a certain kind of car﹣one that you've never heard of before﹣you're interested．
Suddenly ,the car is everywhere．It's parked in front of your house．Your boss's husband has one．You see two of them next to you in traffic on your way home from work．The car is even in those advertisements during the baseball．So what exactly is happening here？Does this car suddenly control your mind？Or is your mind playing tricks on you？

A couple of things happen when the Baader﹣Meinhof phenomenon kicks in．Your brain seems to be excited by the fact that you've learned something new．Your brain can't stop thinking ,"Hey ,that's amazing!I'm going to look for that thing without actually thinking about it．"So now you're looking for it．The frequency illusion happens after you see it even once or twice．In other words ,you start agreeing with yourself that ,yep ,you're certainly seeing it more．
Now if you've done research on Baader﹣Meinhof ,you might be a little surprised ,because the phenomenon wasn't named after the person that researched it ,or anything like that．Instead ,it was named after a singing group ,active in the 1970s．A music website was the surprising start of the name．In 1994 ,a person called the frequency illusion the "Baader﹣Meinhof phenomenon"on the website after hearing Bamder﹣Meinbof twice in 24 hours．The phenomenon has nothing to do with the group．But don't be surprised if the name starts popping up everywhere you turn．

6．The sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville made everybody sad as he was a nice and respected man and had made many friends in Dartmoor during the two years he was at Baskerville Hall.
Mr Barrymore ,the butler（ 男管家） ,said that Sir Charles had been sad and stressed these days.He told Barrymore that he was planning to return to London the next day.Then ,he went for his usual evening walk.He did not return ,and at midnight ,Barrymore went to look for him.He followed Sir Charles's footprints along the path until he found his master's body lying near the end of it.
A man called Murphy was on the moor at the time and said that he heard shouting ,but he was drunk at the time and no one would believe what he said.
The report said that Sir Charles had a weak heart and died of a heart attack.And this made it clear that the stories of a huge hound should not be believed.
"Do you know anything more than what is in the newspapers？" said Holmes when Dr.Mortimer had finished.
"Yes indeed.Sir Charles would never go out onto the moor at night because he was in fear of being attacked.He asked me several times whether I had heard the hound howling at night ,but I never had.I was there within an hour when he died.I went over to see his body.He lay face down on the ground with his arms out and his fingers dug into the ground.At the inquest ,Barrymore said that he saw nothing else ,but I did.I saw footprints ,Mr Holmes."

五．社会
8．When you buy fresh﹣cut flowers ,do you think about where they came from？You might think they were grown somewhere nearby.In fact ,the cut flower trade is more and more international.Today ,thanks to airplanes and high﹣tech cooling systems ,even the most delicate（脆弱的） flower can be exported ,and sold in a flower shop thousands of kilometres away from where it was grown.
The Netherlands（荷兰） controls the world cut flower trade.It deals with 60 percent of the world's cut flowers.And its auction（拍卖） houses are very large indeed﹣﹣﹣Aalsmeer ,near Amsterdam ,is the largest flower market in the world.About 120 soccer fields would fill its main building.Nineteen million flowers are sold here every day ,including roses ,lilies ,and of course ,tulips.
The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower types.Dutch（荷兰的） companies and the government invest（投资） a large amount of money in flower research.Their scientists look for ways to lengthen a flower's vase life ,to strengthen flowers to prevent them from being damaged while traveling ,and also to strengthen the natural pleasant smell of the flowers.
Although Netherlands plays a lead role in the flower market ,there are many places with a Dotter climate for growing flowers ,and the climate of Ecuador（厄瓜多尔） is almost perfect.Mauricio Davalos is the man who starts Ecuador's flower industry. "Our biggest edge is nature ," he says. "Our roses are the best in the world." With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day ,Ecuador's roses are known for their large heads and long ,straight stems.Every year ,Ecuador sells about 500 million flowers to the U.S.alone.The industry has brought work chances and a stronger economy to areas of the country. "My family has TV now.There are radios" says Yolanda Quishpe ,20 ,who picked roses for four years.
To others ,the increasingly international flower trade is very bad news.In recent years ,local growers in the U.S.faced huge competition from international flower companies ,and many lost their business.Lina Hale ,an independent rose grower in California ,said her father had foreseen the situation in the 1980s. "I see a freight（货运） train coming down the track ," he warned her , "and it's coming straight towards us."

文章主旨：本文主要介绍了有关花卉市场的情况。
答案详解：（1）C.段落大意题。根据第一段中When you buy fresh﹣cut flowers ,do you think about where they came from？You might think they were grown somewhere nearby.In fact ,the cut flower trade is more and more international.Today ,thanks to airplanes and high﹣tech cooling systems ,even the most delicate（脆弱的） flower can be exported ,and sold in a flower shop thousands of kilometres away from where it was grown.当你买鲜切花的时候 ,你会想到它们是从哪里来的吗？你可能会认为它们生长在附近的某个地方。事实上 ,切花贸易越来越国际化。今天 ,由于飞机和高科技冷却系统 ,即使是最脆弱的鲜花也可以出口 ,在离它生长地几千公里远的花店里出售。可知本段主要讲述的是你买的花可能来自远方。所以选 C.

"I see a freight（货运） train coming down the track ," he warned her , "and it's coming straight towards us."可知近年来 ,美国本土种植者面临着来自国际花卉公司的巨大竞争 ,许多人失去了生意。加州独立玫瑰种植者丽娜•黑尔（Lina Hale）说 ,她的父亲早在上世纪80年代就预见到了这种情况我看到一辆货车（货运） "火车从轨道上下来了 ,"他警告她 ,"它正朝我们走来。"根据前后文含义可知他知道他的生意会受到影响。所以选 B.

九．新闻报道
14．The Tokyo Olympic Games will start on July 23 ,2021 because of the ongoing COVID﹣19.The Olympics will still be called Tokyo 2020.
Japan ,the host country of the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games ,has promised to hold "the most innovative（创新的） games ever organized." On July 24 ,2019 ,the Olympic Committee expressed its first bright idea﹣﹣ medals were made from old phones and other electronics.
The idea was first introduced in 2016 by a group of young Japanese students.They wanted to raise awareness（ 意 识 ） of the serious electronic waste produced by the country's tech﹣loving people who change their electronics very often.Japanese people threw away 650 ,000 tons of electronics every year ,only about 100 ,000 tons of which are recycled.
To help the environment and raise the awareness ,the Olympic Committee started the "Everyone's Medal" program in February 2017.The program encouraged people to drop off used electronics at specific location bins set up by Japan's Environmental Sanitation Center.It seems to be hard to gather the 8 tons of materials needed to make the 5 ,000 Olympic and Paralympic medals.However ,they had nothing to worry about.By the time the collection ended in March 2019 ,around 79 ,000 tons of used cellphones and other small electronics had been collected.In total ,the program got 32 kilos of gold ,3 ,500 kilos of silver ,and 2 ,200 kilos of bronze﹣﹣more than enough to make every medal.
The Olympic Committee hopes the Tokyo 2020 medals will help raise awareness of the alarming increase（ 增 加 ） in electronic waste﹣﹣not just in Japan but worldwide﹣﹣and cause people to rethink whether they need to change their electronics unnecessarily.As Kohei Uchimura ,who got three Olympic gold medals ,said： "Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic medals will be made out of people's thoughts for avoiding waste.I think there is an important message in this for the future."
Though Japan is the first Olympic host country to make all the medals using metals from used electronics ,it is not the first to think of the idea.Brazil made about 30% of the silver and bronze medals for the 2016 Summer Olympics from recycled materials.

（1）The Tokyo Olympic Games will 　D　.
A.start on July 23 ,2022
B.be called Tokyo 2021

（2）It' s suggested by the Olympic Committee that used electronics should be dropped into 　A　.

B.the electronic waste is increasing around the world
C.the "Everyone's Medal" program has not finished yet
D.Japan is the first country to think of the idea

15．"Without music ,life would be a mistake ," famous German philosopher（哲学家） Friendrich Nietzsche said over a century ago.Music is a big part of our lives.But in recent years ,some US schools have cut music classes to control budgets.

When playing music ,you need different abilities to work together.It is not as simple as it looks ,according to Kenneth Guilmartin of Music Together ,an early childhood music development program.For example ,when playing the piano ,people see music notes and decode them in their brains.They also use their fingers to make sounds.You need to deal with all these things at the same time.
