Dear User，
Are you as beautiful inside as outside？If you want your pictures to show the real you，try being truly beautiful in real life.
PS.Once you use our filter （滤镜），all your future photos will have it automatically （自动地）!

The moon has two very different sides.The side facing Earth，called the near side，is dark with large，flat areas.These flat regions are remains of ancient lava flows（熔岩流）that happened billions of years ago.The far side，which always faces away from Earth，is the opposite.It has more mountains and craters （陨石坑），making it look rocky.
For many years，scientists wondered why the two sides differ so much.Recently，a team led by NASA scientist Ryan Park found the answer lies under the moon's surface.
The team used data （数据） from the mission called GRAIL.In 2011 and 2012，two spacecraft，Ebb and Flow，orbited（绕轨道飞行）the moon for a year. Their job was to measure （测量） how the moon bends because of Earth's gravity （地球引力）.Like a soft ball that changes shape when squeezed （挤压），the moon bends （弯曲） slightly as it moves around Earth.This tiny movement gives clues about its interior（内部）.
.Park said，"At first，we couldn't believe the data and checked it many times." The near side is warmer inside，which may make its rocks soft and allow more bending.The far side is cooler and harder，so it bends less.This difference explains why the two sides look so different.
This discovery helps us understand other planets too.Scientists have used this method to study Jupiter and the asteroid（小行星） Vesta.By observing how these bodies respond to gravity，scientists learn about their internal layers（内层），such as whether they have liquid or solid （固体或液体） parts.Park added， "This method will help explore many planetary bodies in our solar system." This new knowledge improves our understanding of planet formation （形成） and change.
Next time you look at the moon，remember its two faces tell a story about what lies beneath （在……下面）.
18.Which image best represents the difference between the moon's two sides？ ______
A. B.
C. D.
19.What does the word "Their" in paragraph 3 refer to？ ______
A. Researchers' plans. B. Results of the study.
C. The two orbiting machines. D. Craters on the surface.
20.Which sentence best fills the blank " " in paragraph 4？ ______
A. They finally found both sides were too cold to move.
B. At first，they noticed the near side was harder than expected.
C. Strangely，the moon's near side showed more bending.
D. At last，the moon's surface became totally flat.
21.What is the best title for this article？ ______
A. The History of Ancient Lava Flows on the Moon.
B. Why the Moon Bends Around Earth.
C. GRAIL's New Discoveries About the Moon.
D. Measure the Moon's Surface.

①On April 13，2025，China made a very important step in global communication technology.It set up the first 6 G test network in the world with communication，intelligence，and sensing （感应） all in one.Purple Mountain Laboratory （紫金山实验室） developed this in Nanjing.This is a big jump from just having ideas about 6 G to testing it in the real world.
② The new 6 G network can do two things.It can communicate and also sense like a radar （雷达）.The base stations are both signal（信号）senders and "smart radars".They use wireless（无线）signals to find objects.For example，when testing drones （无人机），these stations could find the exact locations，speeds，and heights of three drones.The mistake was less than or equal to pared with 5 G，the 6 G network is more than 10 times faster in communication.And each base station can support up to 1 million devices（设备）.
③ This technology will change our daily life.In close-to-the-ground delivery，drones can bring goods much faster.A 7.4-km delivery only takes 13 minutes，which is three times more efficient.For the safety of cities，it can find illegal （违法的） drones in 5 seconds.This helps keep the airspace safe.In smart cities，traffic lights can change by themselves using real-time road information.In some test areas like Beijing，traffic jams dropped by 35%.
④ China wants to be the leader in global 6 G standards （标准）.It plans to start using 6 G for business by 2030.This project also helps other industries，like satellite （卫星） networks and devices that use AI.Professor You Xiaohu，a famous scientist，said， "6 G will change how people stay in touch.It's not just about being fast，but also about helping us know more about the world around us."
⑤ This new development shows that China is becoming more and more important in high-tech.It gives us a look at a future where networks are faster，smarter，and work better together than ever.
22.Where is this passage most likely taken from？ ______
A. A science fiction novel about future cities.
B. A news report from a popular science magazine.
C. An introduction for 6 G engineers.
D. A government law about air safety.
23.Which of the following statements is NOT correct according to the passage？ ______
A. The 6 G test network was developed by Purple Mountain Laboratory in Nanjing.
B. Compared to 5 G，the 6 G network is less than 10 times faster in communication speed.
C. Each 6 G base station can connect with up to one million devices at the same time.
D. The 6 G network can find illegal drones within five seconds to improve safety.
24.Why does China develop the 6 G network？ ______
A. To prove 6 G works better than 5 G in safety and speed.
B. To use fewer towers in small towns and villages.
C. To lead global 6 G rules and support related industries.
D. To improve drone flying time in delivery services.
25.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage？ ______
A. B. C. D.

56.A lot of excellent straw-made miniatures （稻草微缩模型） of classic ancient buildings make Xu Jian's home more beautiful.They include models from the Yellow Crane Tower in Hubei Province to the Forbidden City's turrets（角楼）in Beijing.They are all full of details and carefully crafted （手工制成的），tied and placed by Xu's skillful hands.
"All the doors and windows and everything else are made of sorghum stalks （高粱秆），"Xu points to the Yellow Crane Tower that is 1 meter high at his base in Yongqing County，Langfang City，Hebei Province.This special piece was made out of hundreds of thousands of sorghum stalks and took him two years to complete without the use of any nails （钉子）or glue.It completely depends on interlocking，tenon-and-mortise structures （榫卯结构），"the man in his 30s explains.
The sorghum straw art requires lots of patience，especially for works showing images of ancient buildings.They usually take several months or even one to two years to complete.Additionally，all the beams and columns（横梁和立柱）are straightened after being heated over a lamp.It's the only way that every door and window can open and close properly.
The sorghum straw art follows strict standards from choosing material to making the work.Xu has grown sorghum in his farmland，and chooses those of the highest quality to create straw works.
The sorghum stalks go from the thinnest at 1.8 millimeters to the thickest at 12 millimeters.Almost every piece includes hundreds of crafting steps.Xu doesn't waste the leftover stalks，either，as he turns them into windmills（风车）.
"Nothing is useless if we put our heart into it，"says Xu.In the eyes of many，sorghum straw is only agricultural （农业的） waste，but through the creativity of craftsmen，it can be turned into a treasure.
(1) Did Xu Jian use nails or glue when making the Yellow Crane Tower model？______
(2) How does Xu Jian make beams and columns straight？______
(3) What does the process of creating sorghum straw art tell us about Xu Jian's personality？（At least 3 aspects）______

This experience taught me that surprises—even difficult ones—carry hidden gifts.Now I face challenges with hope，knowing they may lead to unexpected beauty.I've also learned to pay forward such kindness，volunteering at community centers to support others in need.
Life's surprises are like unwrapped presents：some may seem plain at first，but each holds a lesson that shapes who we become.
