BResearchers concerned with space exploration say they have discovered new evidence that Mars once had a large northern ocean. The discovery adds to existing evidence that the ancient Mars had the right conditions to possibly support some form of life. Today, any water on Mars is believed to be in the form of ice because of the planet’s extremely cold desert temperatures. But there is a rich amount of evidence suggesting that rivers, lakes and even oceans once existed on Mars. A study by the American space agency NASA suggested that about 4.3 billion years ago, Mars likely had an ocean that covered nearly half of Mars’ northern hemisphere(半球). Another NASA-supported study guessed that about 3 billion years ago, the climate in much of the planet’s northern hemisphere was very similar to today’s Earth. The study noted that at that time, Mars likely had a much thicker atmosphere than today and had an active northern ocean. Two American researchers recently released a set of maps to provide new environmental evidence of a large ancient ocean on Mars’ low-lying northern hemisphere. The team collected data from satellite images and photos of Mars. They then combined them to create maps of the planet’s northern hemisphere. Using the maps, the researchers were able to piece together evidence of shorelines that sat at the edge of a huge body of water about 3.5 billion years ago. The researchers published their findings in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets. Benjamin Cardenas, an assistant professor at The Penn State University, was a co- writer of the study. He said the study’s findings showed the possible ocean in that area of Mars was changeable and interesting. “It was dynamic ( 动 态 的 ) . The sea level rose significantly, ” he said. “Rocks were being deposited (沉积) along its basins at a fast rate. There was a lot of change happening here. ”Besides, Cardenas suggested the new study also provided useful information on Mars’ ancient climate and developmental history. “Based on these findings, we know there had to have been a period when it was warm enough and the atmosphere was thick enough to support this much liquid water at one time, ” he said. 4．How does the author develop paragraph 2? A．By drawing comparisons.        B．By giving examples. C．By listing figures.             D．By asking questions. 5．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the researchers? A．How they found the evidence.     B．Where they created maps. C．Why they studied satellites.        D．When they landed on Mars. 6．What did the new study find about Mars? A．It must have been always warm. B．It might have had an active ocean. C．The climate and sea level were unchangeable. D．The atmosphere was too thin to support water. 7．Which section of a magazine is the text most probably taken from? A．Science.      B．Photography.       C．Literature.       D．Farming. CAs a mother and a professional working full time, I spent all of my 30s saying yes. Saying yes to things I wanted to do, but a lot of the time saying yes to things I disliked. This was a people-pleasing technique that would affect people’s opinion of me: the woman who could do it all, so that I can obtain a nice fame in their mind. Little did I know that I was also developing an autoimmune(自身免疫的) disease, which I have to believe was my body’s way of telling me to slow down. I had severely swollen joints and brain fog but I pushed through so that I could look in the mirror at the end of the day and feel “accomplished”. The only things I was accomplishing were bad health and bed habits.And then a series of events changed everything: serious medical issues and losing my job. It took all that to help me see how intensely burnt out I was. I spent a lot of time thinking about where I had to be next instead of being present in the moment. But now, I wake up each day knowing that everything on my schedule has been purposefully agreed to. Looking back, I had the capability to suffer the pressure to say yes. I also felt it necessary to say yes, from driving people to the airport to seeing family every Friday night. I always wanted to solve everyone’s problems and offered sound and immediate solutions. It was one big “yes” to everything. I was everyone’s cheerleader, but forgot how to cheer for myself along the way. But saying no is being my own cheerleader. And it’s not saying no to caring for family and friends. Instead, it’s a minor change in mindset, taking a pause before automatically agreeing. I take a breath, do a quick count of my energy and ability before jumping in. 8．Why did the author say yes to things she disliked? A．To please her boss.           B．To prove her profession. C．To push herself to the limit.    D．To earn herself a good reputation. 9．How did the author deal with the changes in her body? A．She got rid of bad habits.         B．She thought little of them. C．She slowed down her life pace.    D．She paid more attention to her health. 10．Which word can best describe the author? A．Purposeful.     B．Stubborn.      C．Reflective.         D．Encouraging. 11．What will the author do before saying yes? A．Find a cheerleader.         B．Evaluate her situation. C．Breathe in some fresh air.    D．Seek help from her friends. DLynda Doughty, a marine biologist, developed a passion for marine wildlife during her childhood. Growing up along the coast of Maine, she witnessed the impact of human activity on marine mammals and she made it her life’s work to protect them. “I feel this intense responsibility to help these animals,” Lynda said. “And, really, this is what I was put on this Earth to do.” Harbor seals are among the most common mammals found along the East Coast, and they face various threats to their well-being, including fishing net s and illegal feeding, chemical pollutants, as well as boat and propeller (螺旋桨) injuries. Earlier in her career, she worked for a marine mammal emergency response organization that eventually closed due to lack of funding. To fill the gap left by the group, Lynda started her own non-profit organization — Marine Mammals of Maine in 2011. It has since provided response and medical care for more than 3,000 marine mammals. Lynda’s team operates a 24-hour hotline that responds to calls regarding marine mammals in danger. Their permit allows them to respond to mammals stranded (搁浅) within 2,500 miles of the coastline, and her team only offers help if the mammal is in critical condition. Critically ill mammals are transported to Lynda’s center and nursed back to health. Seals typically require three or more months of professional care treatment before they are released back into the ocean. In addition to mammal rescues, Marine Mammals of Maine conducts important research to learn about marine mammal habitats and human impacts. Marine mammals can give us clues about the ocean’s health, which ultimately affects human well-being as well. The organization also helps promote marine conservation among youth and the local community. In addition, they instruct the public on what to do, and what not to do, when encountering wild species like harbor seals. 12．What do Lynda’s words mean? A．She was born along the coast of Maine. B．She ignored the impact of human activity. C．She did her work with a sense of mission. D．She protected marine wildlife at a young age. 13．Why did Lynda set up Marine Mammals of Maine in 2011? A．To earn more money. B．To replace the group. C．To make the group a non-profit organization. D．To restart marine mammal emergency response. 14．What can we learn about Lynda’s team from paragraph 4? A．It only treats critically ill seals. B．It rescues marine mammals in danger. C．It protects all endangered marine mammals. D．It stops people from fishing marine mammals. 15．What’s the purpose of paragraph 5? A．To state younger generations need to be instructed. B．To stress the severe situations that marine life faces. C．To mention other social contributions of Lynda’s team. D．To show humans have a great impact on marine mammals. 第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 从短文后的选项中选出最佳选项，有两项为多余选项 How to Survive a Lightning Strike?According to the National Weather Service, almost two-thirds of lightning accidents occur as people enjoy leisure activities outdoors. _16 _.

Best regards, Zhang Hua 第二节（满分 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。 It was cool and bright and just right for running. I was in the first few miles of a 10-mile race through some hills. Birds were singing in the trees. The soft wind was brushing my cheeks. I felt rested and springy. Despite the hills, I thought it was going to be a fine run. Ahead was Blake, a student from Burke High School. He was running easily, too, moving along efficiently. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where he was;why bother concentrating on pace when Blake was such a nice pacesetter for me?I would overtake Blake later on when he used up energy. So I ran closely behind him. The course headed north for five miles, wandered west for a mile,and then turned south again.The race was getting tougher. With three miles to go,it was beginning to be real hard work. My lungs were on fire,and legs felt like stone. Blake overtook the boy in front of him. Apparently he knew the boy,for they exchanged a few words. Their brief communication worried me. Runners don’t chat during a race unless they feel really good, and Blake plainly was. There was still a noticeable bounce in his steps,but the springiness I had once possessed was gone. Still, I was close enough to overtake Blake if he was tired, so I didn't give up hope completely. We were approaching a hill,a mile from the finishing line, so whatever happened on the hill would almost certainly determine who crossed it first. As I moved up the hill,my attention wandered for a few minutes. When I looked up, Blake was moving away,first five yards,then ten,then more. There was no hope of catching Blake.注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly Blake slowed and sat onto the ground painfully.                                      A reporter took a picture of this moving scene and posted it online.
