I believe in the power of science fiction, not just for its capacity to turn dreams into reality, but also for its power to bond together those who share a common view of the future. For me, that’s true for my relationship with my dad. Some fathers and sons bond over sports, fishing or hunting, but my dad and I bond over Star Trek. We tried a trip to Disney World, but one of my earliest memories wasn’t Mickey, but a Klingon battle cruiser (巡洋舰) on the screen.
Over the years, nearly every setting and situation has become far away for my dad and me. When it’s warm at night, we’re not driving along some dark streets in Indiana, but going at a slow speed with stars dimly shining. Both of us are thinking of them, without needing to say a word. All these imaginations of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me.
Gene Roddenberry, creator of Star Trek, once said, “Science fiction is a way of thinking, a way of logic that bypasses (绕过) a lot of nonsense. It allows people to look directly at important subjects.” A lifetime of science fiction has influenced more than just my relationship with my dad, but has also helped me shape my own hopes for the future. I’m now a science writer.
Yes, science fiction has made me into a “nerd” (书呆子) and it also has been a source of joy for my family, making me an optimist while enabling me to think critically about the danger of technology. Thank those authors who have shared their visions: the world and my family are better for it. Thank my dad, who is both the best storyteller and the best man I have ever known because he helped me realize the truth of Tennyson’s words, “For I dipped into the future, far as human eye could see, saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.”

24. What contributes to the bond between the author and his father?
A. Their similar dream.
B. Their love for each other.
C. Their common interest.
D. Their hobby of fishing.
25. What does the author mainly show in paragraph 2?
A. His deep impression of his dad.
B. His feeling of staying with his dad.
C. His earliest memory of his dad.
D. His good relationship with his dad.
26. How does science fiction help the author at present?
A. It leads him to pursue a desirable career.
B. It brings him the courage to live better.
C. It inspires him to face the danger of technology.
D. It makes him a source of his family’s joy.
27. What may be the best title for the text?
A. The Wonders Science Brings
B. The Power of Science Fiction
C. The Stories About Science Fiction
D. The Time Together with My Father

From the top of Mount Qomolangma to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, plastic continues to pollute the environment, and it creates a significant threat to all life forms on Earth. Despite knowing the effects of plastic pollution, we have not been able to ban the use of plastic products. Now, thanks to the invention of a 17-year-old girl, Arora, we finally have a better choice. This plastic-like material is made from prawn (大虾) shells, and it breaks down 1.5 million times faster than most of the commercial plastic products we use today.
The Australian teen first became aware of the impact of plastic waste on the environment when shopping with her mother. She wondered why her mother had to pay for the plastic bags. When asked, the cashier informed her how plastic hurts the planet and that the additional charge was there to encourage people not to use it. This inspired Arora to create a kind of plastic that would break down faster than the conventional one.
But the journey of inventing “eco-friendly plastic” was not easy. She experimented with a number of organic materials such as cornflour and banana peels, both of which had to be ruled out because of their solubility (溶解性). One night, while having dinner, she noticed that the shells of prawns look plasticky. She immediately went to the lab to research. Later, she would describe that dinner as her “Eureka” moment.
She extracted the material called “chitin” from the shells and then mixed it with an insoluble protein called “fibroin”, which is found in silk cocoons. Using the combination of these two organic materials, Arora created a plastic-like material that breaks down completely within just 33 days. Moreover, this plastic releases nitrogen when breaking down, which is why it can be used as plant fertilizer.
Arora’s invention has caused a stir, and she has won a number of awards. As an inspiring young woman, Arora wants to make a difference in the world, and she wants to encourage other young people to follow their passion and make a positive difference however they can.

28. What inspired Arora to create a kind of special plastic?
A. A cashier’s words about paid plastic bags.
B. Her determination to protect the prawns.
C. A class about plastic’s impact on the planet.
D. Her plan to save money on plastic products.
29. What could be a “Eureka” moment?
A. A moment of needing reflection.
B. A moment of finding the truth.
C. A moment of having sudden inspiration.
D. A moment of enjoying the celebration.
30. What can be known about the new plastic in paragraph 4?
A. It is made from non-organic materials.
B. It can break down totally in a month.
C. It can be used to help plants to grow.
D. It is extracted from an insoluble protein.
31. Which of the following can best describe Arora?
A. Brave and clever.
B. Creative and inspiring.
C. Active and considerate.
D. Humorous and friendly.
D
Even as self-driving cars become more and more popular, there’s one problem that Silicon Valley hasn’t solved: the traffic jam. But Airbus Group, a U.S. aeronautics and space company, thinks that it has a solution. The company’s Silicon Valley branch recently announced it’s been working on a secret project titled “Vahana”, an autonomous flying vehicle that can be used for both passenger and cargo (货物) transport.
Airbus’ flying taxi resembles a drone in design, and would use multiple propellers (螺旋桨) to travel medium-length distances. Developers in France and Germany are working on an electrically operated platform that would allow the flying taxi to carry multiple passengers once between city destinations. Currently, no countries allow completely autonomous aerial vehicles, so the vehicle would initially be manned by a pilot.
Flight tests of the first Vahana prototype (原型) are planned, in the hope of bringing the product to consumers quickly. That’s about a decade sooner than another future-travel system Hyperloop One.
“I’m no big fan of Star Wars, but it’s not crazy to imagine that one day our big cities will have flying cars making their way along roads in the sky,” says Airbus Group CEO Tom Enders. “In a not too distant future, we’ll use our smartphones to book a fully automated flying taxi that will land outside our front door — without any pilot.”
But before you get too excited about beating rush-hour traffic, it’s worth noting that the company has a lot of technological kinks to work out before the product is ready to test. The same sensor technology that allows self-driving cars to avoid accidents doesn’t exist for aerial vehicles. Airbus Group isn’t the only company trying to get in the autonomous air transportation game. There are a number of cargo drone companies on the market and the Ehang 184, a Chinese passenger drone, began flight testing in June.

32. Why does the present flying taxi have to be manned?
A. It makes urban planning hard.
B. It makes future traffic busy.
C. It’s not legally permitted.
D. It may cause accidents.
33. What is Tom Enders’s attitude towards the project?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Disapproving. D. Uncaring.
34. What does the underlined word “kinks” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Barriers. B. Strategies. C. Solutions. D. Means.
35. What’s the best title of the text?
A. A Solution to Worldwide Traffic Jams
B. Airbus Joins the Air Transportation Game
C. Airbus Will Make Flying Taxis a Reality
D. A Bright Future of Flying Vehicles

Books have a beginning, a middle and an end. 36 To properly read a book, you should pay attention to its importance. For non-fiction (纪实文学) books, it is important to read text in its entirety but think about only the major points the author is trying to express.
Choose a well-lit and quiet place to read your book. 37 You are more likely to concentrate on the words on the page if you are not affected by noises or other things.
Decide how much time you want to devote to the reading. You may want to adjust this time allotment (分配) according to how long and difficult the reading material is. 38
39 If you own your book, use note-taking symbols in the paragraphs. For example, if you find something that is important, put a star or a few words next to it. If you are unsure of something and it needs more research, put a question mark next to it.
Write answers to questions at the end of your reading and give definitions (定义) of important terms. For every 100 pages of text you should have at least three to five pages of written notes. 40 If you are using a computer to take notes, don’t copy and paste text from your reading.
A. Write in your book.
B. Make a detailed plan.
C. Use your own words to answer your questions.
D. As such they should be read from start to finish.
E. Turn off your cell phone and television so that your attention won’t be disturbed.
F. Therefore, stop every now and then to think about the structure and main content.
G. For example, spend 4 hours on detailed reading of a 250-page book and 1 hour on note-taking.

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。续写的词数应为150左右。
My husband, Donald, took our daughter Sarah out for some ice cream the night before driving her to college. As they were walking back to the car, they saw a young man sitting on the ground and giving his puppy a cone.
“A cute dog,” Donald said as they walked by. “A free dog,” the young man replied. Donald asked him what he meant by that and the man explained. He was moving away from Vermont and did not think the travel would be good for the dog. He had raised her from a small puppy. The man said she was a 6-month-old cross between the Doberman and the Labrador named Rhubarb. Donald took his phone number. The rest, as they say, is history.
Rhubarb was a sweet dog and very friendly and loved everyone. Whenever someone came to the house, she was always happy. She also got along with Willie, an older Samoyed we had. Willie was not well and died about a year later, but, fortunately, Rhubarb’s company helped him keep going for longer than that if he had been alone.
But the interesting thing about Rhubarb was that she never barked. She would sometimes get excited when she saw a chipmunk (花栗鼠) and make a little crying sound.
One hot night when she was about 4 years old, we went to bed with the windows open and the doors unlocked. At about 3 a. m., I woke up to the sound of Rhubarb barking. I woke Donald and we got out of bed.
Rhubarb was coming toward us. We turned on the lights and noticed the door to the kitchen was open. Then we saw the door leading into the house from the garage was also open. We quickly locked all the doors, and we did not get any sleep that night. It was deep into the night, so we didn’t call the police.


Para 1:
The next day we noticed there was cigarette ash on the floor.

Para 2:
My purse was right next to the door.

第一节
People’s opinions are divided when it comes to the question whether we can order takeout food at school. Some people are in favour of it because it saves them much trouble, allowing them to have delicious food delivered directly to them. However, others don’t think it right to do so. They point out that takeout food is usually delivered in plastic containers. Countless plastic bags and boxes will cause white pollution. What’s more, there can be health risks involved in takeout food. Personally, I will say no to takeout food, which must be banned from entering the school, so that we can have a good environment.

第二节
Para 1: The next day we noticed there was cigarette ash on the floor. Actually, it was a thief who entered our kitchen and garage. Much to our relief, thanks to Rhubarb, the thief stole nothing. I called the police to report the break-in. I also told them nothing had been taken, but they sent a police officer over to talk with us anyway. In fact, recently many local homes had been broken in on the weekend. Most people’s wallets and purses had been stolen.

Para 2: My purse was right next to the door. However, Rhubarb had scared the thief away before he or she could steal it. When the police officer left, he said we should reward Rhubarb with a big steak dinner. Rhubarb lived to be almost 12 years old, but that night was the only time she barked in her entire life. Fortunately, she never saw the need to warn us of any other danger. We were very thankful to Rhubarb. We loved her like a member of the family.

W: Hello, everybody! Thanks for listening to Wave, Tokyo’s favorite radio station. We’ll be playing some music by Britney Spears in a moment, but first let’s check the weather out there. It’s been a beautiful day today, hasn’t it? Well, this evening’s weather is changing fast, so if you’re on your way home from the office, you’ll have to be careful driving because there are some low clouds moving in. You won’t see the lights of Tokyo Tower tonight! Seriously, it may be difficult to see other cars on the highway, so put your lights on and drive slowly for safety tonight, OK? No umbrellas necessary tomorrow. We’ll have beautiful weather all week, mild temperatures and sunshine starting tomorrow and lasting through the weekend. Have a picnic in the park, take a hike and get some fresh air. That’s what I plan to do.
