21、   "IF ALIENS are so likely， why have we never seen any？" That is the Fermi Paradox（悻论） ﹣ named after Enrico Fermi， a physicist who posed it in 1950．

Fermi's argument ran as follows． The laws of nature supported the appearance of intelligent life on Earth． Those laws are the same throughout the universe． The universe contains zillions of stars and planets． So， even if life is unlikely to arise on any particular astronomical body， the sheer abundance of creation suggests the night sky should be full of alien civilizations． Fermi wondered why aliens had never visited the earth． Today， the paradox is more usually cast in light of the inability of radio﹣telescope searches to detect the equivalent（相等的） of the radio waves that leak from Earth into the universe， and have done for the past century．

Thinking up answers to this apparent contradiction has become something of a scientific parlour（客厅）game． Perhaps life is really very unlikely． Perhaps the priests are right： human beings were put on Earth by some creator God for His own unknown purposes， and the rest of the universe is merely background scenery． Perhaps there are plenty of aliens， but they have decided that discretion is a safer bet than gathering together． Or perhaps galactic（银河的）  society avoids communicating with Earth specifically．  One frightening idea is that technological civilizations destroy themselves before they can make their presence known． They might blow themselves up after inventing nuclear weapons （an invention that， on Earth， Fermi had been part of）， or cook themselves to death by over﹣burning fossil fuels．

In a paper published last month on arXiv， an online repository（文献库） ， a group of three astronomers at Pennsylvania State University have analyzed the history of alien hunting and come to a different conclusion． In effect， they reject one of the paradox' s main theory．  Astronomers have seen no sign of aliens， argue Jason Wright and his colleagues， because they have not been looking hard enough．

【1】What is the Fermi Paradox？

A. The law of universe supported the appearance of aliens but we never see any．

B. A theory about whether aliens exist on the earth and why we can't see them．

C. Fermi thought that aliens never existed because it was completely a paradox．

D. Fermi concluded that aliens did exist but they could not be seen by humans．

【2】What can we conclude from the second paragraph？

A. The universe doesn't provide the abundance of creation of life．

B. Fermi thought aliens never visited the earth in the history of human．

C. The inability of radio﹣telescope may result in the failure of finding aliens．

D. The civilizations on the earth have been detected by aliens in the universe．

【3】What does the word underlined in the third paragraph mean？

A. Getting together．

B. Fighting each other．

C. Hating each other．

D. Living separately．

【4】How do Jason Wright and his colleagues find the Fermi Paradox？

A. They firmly believe that it is out of date．

B. They actually doubt the base of the paradox．

C. They want to prove that it is completely right．

D. They conclude that aliens actually never exist．

22、Are you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world's most beautiful volcanoes

that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don't miss them!

Mount Mayon, the Philippines

Located about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the

most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the

area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns in the Albay province

and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have a historical

good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed

by an 1814 eruption.

Kilauea and Marina Kea, Hawaii

Hawaii's volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has

been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic

forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.

Mount Kelimutu, Indonesia

Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island

of Flores in Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province. One is emerald green (翡翠绿), another

dark red, and the third pitch black. Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the

volcanic gases met the lakes' minerals centuries ago.

【1】People who hike Mount Mayon can enjoy the following EXCEPT ______.

A. views of the towns in the Albay province

B. views of the Pacific Ocean

C. views of the Cagsawa Ruins

D. views of Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province

【2】According to the text, Kilauea_____________________.

A. is an active volcano

D. forced thousands to flee in 2014

【3】The colors of Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes are due to_______________.

23、Dulse (掌状红皮藻) grows along northern, rocky coastlines of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. And its colorful, soft leaves hide an amazing taste. “I think it is a food of the future,” says Chris Langdon, who has been studying dulse for more than ten years at Oregon State University in Portland. He has found new ways to grow it faster. It not only grows cheaply and easily, but also is rich in protein (蛋白质), Those qualities allow creative cooks to bring this unlikely treat to our favourite restaurants.

People need to seek out new foods because the world has so many mouths to feed. As of 2015, there were more than seven billion people on Earth, and by 2100 that number may double according to the UN. Feeding all of these people means not only improving the way food is grown, but also finding new foods. If nothing changes, within 35 years, the world’s population will be greater than the amount of food produced according to a report prepared by the Global Harvest Initiative.

Global warming is changing food production. Scientists say that rising temperatures will reduce the growth of important crops(作物) like wheat and corn. Developing countries will be hit the hardest. When crops fall, they will become more expensive. And since those foods are also used to feed animals like cows and pigs, meat prices will also rise.

All over the world, researchers are working around the clock to find out how to best feed more people in the world. And some surprising ideas have begun to come out. Two years ago, scientists made the first burger from meat grown in a lab, rather than taken from an animal. The project cost more than $ 300,000, but it’s a good start. Other researchers are developing crops that can grow well in the heat. Still others are finding ways to make meat animals produce more meat.

【1】Why does the author mention the dulse in the first paragraph?

A．To show a new study.

B．To introduce a friend

C．To describe the Pacific.

D．To lead in the topic.

【2】What drives people to look for new foods according to the text?

A．A rise in meat prices.

B．An increasing population.

C．The polluted farmland.

D．The serious waste of food.

【3】What is the author’s attitude towards the first burger made from lab-grown meat?

A．Doubtful.

B．Uncaring.

C．Defensive.

D．Positive.

【4】Which can be the best title for the text?

A．New Ways to Grow Crops

B．A Sharp Fall in Crops Worldwide

C．Finding Foods for the Future

D．Reducing Food Prices for the Poor

24、When Rebecca Vance tells parents that their children have "specific language impairment（障碍）", the parents often wonder aloud what they could have done to prevent the disorder.

Vance, a speech pathologist（病理学家）, runs a summer camp for 4- and 5-yeat-old children who have difficulty acquiring language skills through interactions with their parents and teachers.

Children with specific language impairment have difficulty with grammar, including proper word order. tenses, subject-verb agreement and use of the correct pronouns for gender distinction.

"When the public think about speech problems, they usually think of stuttering（口吃）or not being able to say their R's." Vance says. "But we're really talking about something different. We're talking about the inability to take an idea and then express it in a grammatical way that uses appropriate vocabulary to express that idea, and that's what children really struggle with."

"The idea is if we can get in early when these problems first become really apparent we may be able to have the biggest impact,” Vance says.

Research shows that children who have delayed language development in the preschool years are at risk for academic difficulties when they start school—and, specifically, problems with reading and writing because "reading and writing are language on paper", Vance says.

What's more, children with poor language abilities are at greater risk for dropping out of school and for not being able to get well-paying jobs in later years. "So, there's a socio- economic consequence to this impairment," Vance says.

The important thing to know, Vance says, is that children "are not having these problems because they can't hear, and they’re not having these problems because they’re not intelligent. They’re bright, they can think, they can problem-solve, but when they have to process and use words, it's just very difficult".

"Our ultimate goal is to have children take what we teach them and make it part of their system and use it every day, all the time," Vance says.

【1】Whom is the summer camp open to?

A．Parents.

B．Teachers.

C．School students.

D．Preschool children

【2】Which of the following is a probable consequence of specific language impairment?

A．Unable to get a good job.

B．Unable to write and read.

C．Unable to talk with others.

D．Unable to understand people.

【3】What does Vance think of children with specific language impairment?

A．They have a poor memory.

B．They were born a bit deaf.

C．They are normal children.

D．They are of low intelligence.

【4】What is "what we teach them" underlined in the last paragraph mainly about?

A．How to pronounce a word.

B．How to interact with others.

C．How to use their language correctly.

D．How to speak their language fluently.
