The most wonderful space museums
National Museum of the U.S. Air Force | Dayton
If your main interests lie in military aviation, this museum will have everything you’ve ever wanted to see. It features exhibits on World War II, the Korean War, the Southeast Asia War and the Cold War. They’ve also got a Missile Gallery as well as a Space Gallery where visitors can walk inside a full-size reproduction of a NASA shuttle (航天飞机). Most impressively, it is totally free to visitors.
Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum | Washington
Housing 60,000 air and space collections, the museum enables visitors to learn about the rich history of aviation (航空) by viewing the first successful aircraft (飞机) — the 1903 Wright Flyer — and everything that came next. From pilot uniforms to NASA spacesuits, engines and equipment, you’ll find it all at this museum.
U.S. Space and Rocket Center | Huntsville
Space fans know this museum to be the site of the original Space Camp, including the film by the same name, but there’s plenty more to see here. The Center has a number of exhibits both indoors and out and many play areas for younger kids.3D movies and live science shows add to the appeal.
Pima Air & Space Museum | Tucson
The privately funded museum has been in operation for over 40 years and has over 300 historic aircraft on display. You’ll also find several exhibits that range from seaplanes and aircraft carriers to paper airplanes and women in flight. One of the biggest draws, though, is its extensive “boneyard”, a collection of over 4,000 U.S. government and military aircraft that are either being recycled or regenerated.
21. Which museum houses the first aircraft in history
A. Pima Air & Space Museum.
B. Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.
C. National Museum of the U.S. Air Force.
D.U.S. Space and Rocket Center.
22. What do we know about the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force
A. It has a history of 40 years.
B. It charges a small entrance fee.
C. It organizes space camps every year.

One of the most famous literary challenges in history was when Dr. Seuss received a challenge from his publisher that he could only use 50 words to write an entire book. That’s all well and good, but it’s a tough challenge, to be sure. However, Ernest Vincent Wright would no doubt turn up his nose, as he challenged himself to pen an entire 50,000-word novel without once using the letter “e”.
Wright managed to pull it off. The final product was Gadsby, which is about a man named, well, Gadsby, who tries to save his city with the help of a youth group. It took Wright nearly six months to complete the work, and in his introduction pages he mentioned the challenges along the way.
One of the biggest challenges was replacing pronouns, since it’s tough to write a sentence, let alone a novel, without words like “he” or “she” or “her” and so forth. Additionally, he was forced to find ways to work around using past tense words that typically end in “-ed”, which, as you might imagine, is more than a little tricky.
Still, Wright did manage to come up with 50,110 words and a full story without any cheats, making it one of the most successful lipograms (避讳某字之文) in the history of writing. Wright self-published the book in 1939 and it was read primarily by people who tried to find any cheats, so convinced were they that Wright simply must have used the letter.
The entire novel is available online to read for free, as it entered the public domain in 1968. It’s a good thing, too, as the storehouse that contained the majority of the copies burned down, destroying enough of the books that it has since become a rare book collector’s prize, with copies being valued at thousands of dollars.
At the end of the day, of course, it remains a truly great achievement. After all, “e” is the most commonly used letter in English, with more than 11 percent of all words in the Oxford dictionary containing at least one “e”.
24. What did Wright challenge himself to write
A. An entire book with 50 words.
B. A 50,000-word book in six months.
C. A 50,000-word book without the letter “e”.
D. An entire book including “e” 50,000 times.
25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The difficulties Wright faced.
B. The plot of Wright’s final product.
C. The popularity of Wright’s final product.
D. The smart ways Wright used to replace pronouns.
26. What can we infer about the readers of Gadsby
A. They considered the book a great success.
B. They expected the book to be available online.
C. They wondered what lipograms mean.
D. They doubted if Wright really made it.
27. Why do Wright’s book copies become valuable
A. Due to their rarity.
B. Because Wright won a big prize.
C. Because they had a really long history.
D.Due to book collectors’ recommendation.
C
The beautiful monarch butterfly is facing an unprecedented decline and Utah State University (USU) wants to make sure that doesn’t happen.
To help the struggling butterfly, USU students have been capturing and tagging monarch butterflies in the Uintah Basin.
Tagging butterflies will allow researchers to know their migration path and protect their feeding grounds. Every year, monarch butterflies start a “3,000-mile migration, traveling south to Mexico each fall and back up to Canada in the spring,” according to the National Wildlife Federation (NWF).
Because of habitat loss and increased pesticide use, monarch butterflies have experienced a population decline upwards of 90%, according to NWF.
“Monarch butterflies are facing a large historical decline over the last 40 years,” says USU senior Carson Liesik, a student on the project. “Their population, as of the beginning of 2020, was about 30,000 monarchs in the Western United States, which is about a 99% drop as compared to information from the 1980s. We are hoping to learn how to help the monarch butterfly population recover from its historical decline. This project is an important step.”
When tagging the butterflies, students record information about each one including its wing condition and location of discovery. Then students map its migration path as well as habitat use and activity. They tag each butterfly with a unique number so that if it is recaptured at a later date, they can know its growth stage. With the collected information students get an idea of where these monarch butterflies are and how they are using the resources around them.
Researchers say the public can help protect the monarch butterfly population, too. “The best way is by growing milkweed plants wherever you may have space. Milkweed is the main food source that monarch butterflies depend on. If you plant milkweed in your yard, you might be lucky enough to see monarchs stop and breed (繁殖),” says the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR).
28. Why do the students mark monarch butterflies
A. To study their migration path.
B. To research their social behavior.
C. To find the difference in their feeding habits.
D. To know the number of them in both Mexico and Canada.
29. What does Liesik want to tell us about monarch butterflies in paragraph 5
A. They were first discovered in the 1980s.
B. They are facing serious survival problems.
C. They have been well protected since 2020.
D. They changed the way researchers think about butterflies.
30. What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A. The results of the project.
B. The importance of the project.
C. How USU supports the project.
D. How the students carry out the project.
31. How can the public best protect monarch butterflies according to DWR
A. By stopping the use of farm chemicals.
B. By making their yards clean and open.
C. By planting milkweed in their yards.
D. By raising money for NWF.
D
As AI art generators (生成器) take the world by storm, some people wonder if their works should count as art at all. The technology is still developing and has some wrinkles to iron out, which means there are indeed flaws to consider alongside the incredible artwork a good artificial intelligence can produce.
Art is classed as the product of imagination, skill, experience, and emotion, usually meant to represent something for the public to enjoy. Artists spent time and effort putting their inner worlds onto these works. Machine intelligence also puts a lot of work into sorting through tons of data, linking someone’s prompt to datasets, and trying to represent it as best as possible. The difference is that the AI is driven by commands instead of an emotional desire to express itself.
AI painters can produce over 1,000 original works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced print of the Mona Lisa is worth less than the actual Leonardo da Vinci’s painting. Why Scarcity — there’s only one of the original. Should anyone pay for these things And if an artist puts AI masterpieces up for sale, what should the price be
AI art involves a program mimicking (模仿) the work of existing artists to create a new piece according to the request of a human. But who made the artwork, the machine or its user And can the original artists sue (起诉) for copyright violation Such questions complicate the merging of artificial intelligence and the art industry, while fueling arguments against recognizing AI-generated art as marketable artistic products.
Once we’ve answered those questions, we can tackle the really big one: When an AI-generated painting wins an award, who gets the prize
32．What does the underlined word “flaws” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Benefits. B．Advances. C．Standards. D.Weaknesses.
33．How is AI art different from human art
A．It is the product of experience. B．It costs less money to produce.
C．It is not a mirror of humans’ emotions. D．It combines different styles of work.
34．Why does the writer mention Mona Lisa in the third paragraph
A．To prove the popularity of classic artworks.
B．To present the potential trouble with the value of AI art.
C．To show the advantages of AI painters over human artists.
D．To introduce a new way of preserving art masterpieces.
35．What can we infer from paragraph 4
A．AI art makes copyright issues more complicated.
B．AI art promotes the sale of artistic products.
C．Artists can create more works with the help of AI.
D．There will be fierce competition in the art industry.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you’ve spent more time outside in the past couple of years, you might have noticed a lot more of what happens naturally in your neighborhood, from the songs of birds outside your window to the flowers in a nearby park. 36 That’s called “citizen (公民)” or “community” science. With our observations (观察), we can help scientists do research.
37 A single scientist can work for years trying to collect as many observations as a community project could collect in a month.
There are thousands of community science projects out there. Here’s how to get started:
38 Ask yourself: “What gets me excited about nature ” You might be really into birds or trees. Do you love observing the weather Do you care about the water quality (质量) where you live There’s going to be a project for you out there.
Get your tools ready. 39 From there, check out CitizenScience.gov or SciStarter to learn more and find projects in their databases (数据库). If you have a good idea of what you’re interested in, you can turn right to a specialized app. There are plenty of apps and websites to meet your interests.
Step outside and start recording what you see outside. 40 People often see nature, especially if you live in a city, as something that is far away or hard to get to. You can study nature in the cracks (裂缝) of the sidewalk ... There are birds everywhere. You don’t have to be out in the wilderness.
A. Why would scientists need common people’s observations of nature
B. Turn your hobby into a service for scientists.
C. Think about what you enjoy or find interesting in nature.
D. Are you a fan of bird watching
E. All you need is a smartphone or a computer for most community science projects.
F. You can be a citizen scientist no matter where you live.
G. We can share what we see with scientists through apps and websites.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When something that’s important to you disappears, don’t be hopeless. It may miraculously(奇迹般地) come back sooner or later. I learned it on one winter day.
It was one of those busy days. Especially, I had lots of clothes to wash, and Karen, my four-year-old kid, kept following me, pulling my shirt and crying for attention. I was annoyed. To stop her troubling me and make her quiet, I searched the drawers in the bedroom and found a bag of forgotten balloons. “Yellow,” she said with joy.
The balloons were the gifts for her that her uncle had bought abroad. These balloons were of great quality and very unique, unable to be found at least in our small town. Among the balloons, the yellow one was Karen’s favourite. And there was only one yellow balloon. She viewed it as her best friend and even signed her name on its surface.
After I blew the balloon up, she cheerfully took it with tiny fingers, touching it and telling it her secrets. Immediately, her attention was attracted.
After lunch, we prepared to go to the local public clothes –washing shop. Before long, I was ready. Carrying her yellow balloon, Karen followed me into our car. On the way, she was singing and had fun with the balloon. She kept beating the balloon against the back of the car seat. As I turned the corner, trying to keep my attention on my driving, I felt a sudden, big wind blow across my feet. I called out at once, “ Karen! Close the window. It’s cold out!”
And then I heard her frightened scream. In a hurry, I looked over my shoulder, expecting to see some terrible insects that led to her being frightened. But there wasn’t one. Karen was looking out of the window, both arms reaching out, as if to get something. And she cried, “Balloon, balloon. Come back! Come back! Then, she turned to me, calling out, “ Mom, please stop the car! My balloon has escaped.”

One possible version
“Alright," I said and slowly pulled over. Hurriedly, we got off the car. We watched helplessly as the balloon floated up. Driven by the wind, it flew farther and farther and finally disappeared in the sky. Karen cried hard. By the time we reached home, the promise of a new balloon, two new balloons or even ten new balloons had failed to calm Karen. Heartbroken, she whispered," I'll never find back my friend." I felt sad. The next morning, I drove her to the park to cheer her up.
While walking in the park, we suddenly found a yellow balloon flying over a tree." Is it Karen's " I thought. Minutes later, the balloon stopped on the ground. Karen and I rushed to check. To our surprise, it was Karen's yellow balloon. There was her name she had signed. Possibly, the balloon had rested somewhere the day before and then was carried into the air by wind again. Karen kissed the balloon, saying," I can ' t believe you'd come back ." Later, when I'm in some trouble, I always think of this balloon and remind myself that tomorrow is another day and that nothing is impossible.

M: The Moon—while it is more than a fair distance away from us—is important to our survival. While it may not be depended upon in terms of the light or glow it gives off, it controls our tides. It's also been the focus of much attention lately with the release of Damien Chazelle's movie First Man, which looks at Neil Armstrong's journey to the satellite back in 1969.
China is reportedly planning to create and launch their very own "moon" in the name of helping low light in city areas by 2021. Built with wings not unlike solar panels, it's thought that the man-made moon will be able to focus on certain areas and zones in need of light.
According to local sources, the artificial moon will reportedly aim to offer up to eight times the brightness of our natural satellite. It's an interesting idea—one that could really catch on, if successful—though at present, other details are in fact few. The Moon already provides us with a certain amount of light—and it is always a welcoming presence in the night sky—but will a second, brighter moon help China with its plans to cut down on street lighting Who's to say—as it is not presently clear how such a moon will be launched, maintained or even kept in the air More news is expected!
