21、Yuri Gagarin became the first person to go beyond Earth’s atmosphere in 1961. As he spent 108 minutes in orbit, the Russian astronaut consumed a tube of beef-and-liver paste (糊状物) with a side of chocolate sauce. His American counterparts (同行) enjoyed equally unappetizing cuisine during their trips to the moon, but pureed (做成泥的) meat gave way to freeze-dried meals by the time the space shuttle first launched in 1981. Today, astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) also enjoy fresh fruit and vegetables sent from home.
An increasingly appealing space diet has ensured astronauts get more of what their bodies need. Life aboard the ISS, for example, is hard—a six-hour spacewalk can burn more than 2,000 calories—so it’s essential that astronauts consume enough food to do the job. And over time, zero gravity weakens the heart and other muscles, requiring anyone living in it to exercise regularly. “Flavor is the primary driver for most decisions surrounding food intake,” says Robin Tucker, an assistant professor of nutrition science at Michigan State University.
Floating freely can weaken the sense of taste and smell. Providing a variety of seasonings (调味品) helps with that. NASA also makes sure the Space Station has crew members’ favorite snacks. The menu includes goodies, like the occasional pizza during resupply flights.
However, deliveries won’t be possible on a month’s long trip to Mars, and refrigerators and freezers require too much room and energy to be practical. Given that vitamins and minerals in packaged meals slowly break down, NASA is researching how astronauts might grow vegetables. It also has experimented with something like a 3D printer that would combine powdered starch (粉状淀粉), protein, and fat with micronutrients, oil, and water to make tasty food. As humans go ever farther into space, such ideas will ensure they eat something healthier, fresher, and more acceptable than wet and sticky stuff squeezed from a tube.
【1】What does the author think of astronauts’ food before 1981?
A.It was too dry.
B.It was original.
C.It was unhealthy.
D.It was unappealing.
【2】What influences astronauts’ food consumption in space most according to Robin Tucker?
A.The food’s look.
B.The food’s taste.
C.The food’s smell.
D.The food’s nutrition.
【3】How might space flights affect astronauts?
A.They might become overweight.
B.They have to take in fewer seasonings.
C.They might have a weakened sense of smell.
D.They have to do more exercise than on Earth.
【4】What is NASA focusing on at present?
A.Preventing the breakdown of nutrients in food.
B.Sending supplies to the spaceships flying to Mars.
C.Enabling astronauts to feed themselves in space.
D.Increasing the volume of freezers on spaceships.

23、 Albert Einstein has a great effect on science and history. An American university president once said that Einstein had made a new outlook—a new view of the universe. It may be sometime before the average mind understands fully the identity of time and space and so on, but even ordinary men now understand that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.
By 1914 young Einstein had been worldfamous. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited chances for study, but soon his peace and quiet life were broken by World War I.
Einstein hated fighting and killing. The great suffering of the war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work. In the years following World War I, honours were increasingly put on him. He became head of the Kaiser Whihem Institute of Theoretical Physics. But he himself refused the effort to put him in a position far above other people. He was well known for his humble manners. He often said that his success would certainly have been achieved by others if he had never lived. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize, and he was honoured in Germany until the rise of Nazism when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.
【1】The main idea of the first paragraph is________.
A.the difficulty of Einstein's thought to others
B.the feeling of an American university president towards Einstein
C.the difference between science and history
D.the change in human thought produced by Einstein
【2】From the second paragraph, we know Albert Einstein________.
A.enjoyed world popularity B.became head of a school
C.was popular with his students D.enjoyed studying wars
【3】Which of the following statements about Einstein is TRUE?
A.He achieved more than other scientists in history.
B.Our ideas about the universe differ from one another because of him.
C.He kept working until peace came in 1918.
D.His research practically stopped during World War I.
【4】In the years following World War I, ________.
A.Einstein's theory was soon accepted even by ordinary people
B.more and more honours went to Einstein
C.Einstein almost had no chances for his research
D.Einstein was not honoured in Germany until the rise of Nazism
24、 2019 the novel coronavirus was officially named 2019-nCoV by WHO in January 12, 2020. Coronavirus is a large family of viruses, known to cause colds, Middle East respiratory syndrome (mers), severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and other serious diseases. A novel coronavirus is a new strain of coronavirus that has never been found in human body before.
Since December 2019, surveillance(监控) of influenza(流感) and related diseases has been continuously carried out in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, and multiple cases of viral pneumonia(肺炎) have been found, all of which were diagnosed(诊断) as viral pneumonia / pulmonary infection.
The common signs of coronavirus infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and dyspnea. In more severe cases, infection can lead to pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, renal failure, and even death. The novel coronavirus induced disease is not specific treatment. But many symptoms can be treated, so it needs to be treated according to the clinical situation of patients. In addition, supplementary care for infected people can be very effective. Good self-protection includes: maintaining basic hand and respiratory hygiene( 呼吸道卫生), adhering to safe eating habits, and avoiding close contact with anyone who shows symptoms of respiratory diseases (such as coughing and sneezing).
In August 2020, the novel coronavirus transmission characteristics were revealed by the latest research findings: high contagion and high concealment. In September, the academician Li Lanjuan group of the National Key Laboratory of infectious diseases diagnosis and treatment in Zhejiang University and the research group of Li Xue, Tsinghua University life school, first analyzed the three-dimensional structure of the whole new virus of the new coronavirus. In October, a new Australian study showed that the new coronavirus could survive on the surface of banknotes and glass for nearly a month. On December 23, another more infectious variant of the new coronavirus was discovered in the UK.
【1】What information can we learn novel coronavirus according to this article?
A.It has been found in humans before. B.It has specific therapies to be treated
C.After infection will suffer from viral pneumonia D.It has no variation at the moment
【2】How can we protect against this virus?
A.Keep a safe distance from people with respiratory diseases
B.Go out more and don't stay in a confined space all the time
C.Take related drugs for immunity
D.Communicate with infected people to produce antibodies(抗体)
【3】What is the possible meaning of the underlined word?
A.arrangement B.region C.scenery D.space
【4】What can't we know from the last paragraph of the article?
A.The three-dimensional structure of novel coronavirus whole virus has been analyzed internationally.
B.The new coronavirus can survive on the surface of banknotes and glass for nearly one month
C.Transmission characteristics of new coronavirus: high infectivity and high concealment
D.The vaccine(疫苗) for the new coronavirus is on the market
