1．A newly discovered planet looks just right for life as we know it，according to an international group of astronomers.Orbiting a star about 500 light-years away，the planet called Kepler-186 f is about the same size as Earth.It orbits its star at the right distance for liquid water on the surface. That is a necessary condition for life as we know it.
But it is not exactly like Earth，NASA planetary scientist Elisa Quintana said. "It's more of an Earth's cousin.It's not an Earth's twin.It shares the same characteristics as Earth，but their parent stars are very different，" said Quintana.
Kepler-186 f orbits a star that is smaller and cooler than our sun.But，writing in the journal Science，the astronomers say the planet appears to be a closer relative than most of the hundreds of others discovered so far.Some are massive gas-covered giants with thick，crushing atmospheres.Others orbit too close to their stars and are too hot for life.
Two planets discovered last year are in the right orbit and might be good candidates for life，Quintana says，but they are a bit bigger than Earth. "For the first time，we can actually say we now have a planet that is both Earth-sized and orbits in its star's habitable zone，" she said.
It may be the first time，but it probably is not the last，says Massachusetts Institute of Technology astrophysicist Sara Seager. "We've been waiting decades to understand how common habitable planets might be，and it's looking like they're really common.And this gives us excitement and motivation to take the next step，" said Seager.
The next step would be to look for signs of life in the atmospheres of these distant worlds.That would take a more sophisticated （高端的；復(fù)雜的） space telescope.But budget cuts threaten that mission，says University of California at Los Angeles astrophysicist Ben Zuckerman， "In principle，we could do this in the next few decades.But in practice，because there's no money，it's not gonna happen.It's not gonna happen in my lifetime，for example."
Leaving earthbound concerns behind，NASA's Elisa Quintana believes that when the next-generation space telescope is launched，it will find that we are not alone in the universe.

2．"When I was a child，space was all I dream and talked about．My parents thought it was just a phase （階段），but as I grew up I became greatly interested in science．I never doubted that one day I'd be an astronaut （宇航員）．"As an adult，Anousheh Ansari left her home country Iran，settled in the USA and started a company．The company was so successful that she was finally able to sell it for 750 million．"The first thing that crossed my mind was that my life's goal might now be with in reach and I signed up to become the first female（女性的）private space explorer at a cost of around 20 million．"
Anousheh set off on September 18th along with two astronauts．On the space station，each member of a space crew （全體機(jī)組人員），tourist or not，is expected to carry out important
experiments on board．For Anousheh，this meant working on lower back pains in astronauts and studying tiny life forms that can carry diseases on board the station．Many people might have considered this"working holiday"bad，but Anousheh loved it．
Anousheh faced many difficulties on board．To wash her hair，for example，she had to put water over her head；however，little bits of water would float （漂浮） away．"The guys liked to make fun of me．They'd ask me to pass the bread and when I handed it to them，rather than floating it，they'd say I'd taken all the fun out of it．After a while，I got used to all this，though，and I felt so at home that in the end it was hard to go back to normality．"
Anousheh is proud to be the first female space tourist and wants to encourage women all over the world．However，she doesn't like the title"space tourist"．"I think if my experience is to be compared to an experiment or an experience on Earth，it is probably closer to an adventure to Antarctica or climbing Mount Everest，"she explains．
（1）As Anousheh was growing up，．
A．she didn't think she would ever become an astronaut
B．her interest in space wasn't expected to last
C．she disagreed with her parents' plans
D．others tried to discourage her dreams
（2）The space crew numbers．
A．often carry diseases onto the space station
B．can suffer aches and pains
C．must have a strong background in science
D．have little time to relax
（3）On the space station，．
A．Anousheh did a lot of practice on bread
B．it seemed impossible for Anousheh to wash with water
C．Anousheh liked playing games with the other astronauts
D．it took Anousheh some time to get familiar with the conditions
（4）In Anousheh's opinion，her experience as a space tourist．
A．will give other women the courage to explore space
B．cannot be compared to any experience on Earth
C．turned out to be a dangerous experiment
D．was not as good as she hoped．組卷：7引用：2難度：0.7 -
3．The number of people in my house has grown from six to seven recently.A young man from Spain has come to spend six weeks with us.He is not an ordinary young man；he's actually my second cousin，and is here to spend time with this side of the family，and of course，to learn English.
Thankfully，he is the same age as my youngest son，and is very fun-loving.I'm sure that he will pick up a lot of English while he plays with my kids.That was actually how I picked up a lot of Spanish when I was a child.My mother would take me to Mallorca in Spain，to spend about a month in the summers.Because children play so much，and are less inhibited（拘束的）than adults，they absorb language like little sponges （海綿）.Well，that's what happened to me，and I'm very thankful for the experience.
So far，we have taken my cousin to Seattle for a couple of days，and down to a local river to look for gold.Today，I plan on taking him to the museum in the town of Cashmere which is excellent.He will get his first view of Native American life，and be able to walk through some of the original pioneer houses of this area.Like most boys who are thirteen，he is very curious and constantly asks questions.Of course，I don't always have the answers!Coming to the U.S.jye.ai a big step for him，especially being so young.Mind you，he is a world traveller.His mother is an air hostess and is able to get cheap airline tickets，so they travel internationally all the time.So he is extremely comfortable in airports，and understands the routines of getting from one place to another.I hope that his being here will encourage my children to spend time in Spain，and also become international travellers.
（1）Why does the young man come to America？
A．To spend the summer holiday.
B．To meet his mother.
C．To learn English.
D．To go to school.
（2）How old is the writer's youngest son？
A．11 years old.
B．13 years old.
C．15 years old.
D．16 years old.
（3）What does the writer think of her Spanish experience？
A．Helpful.
B．Boring.
C．Unnecessary.
D．Unimportant.
（4）What can we know from the last paragraph？
A．The young man's mother is a pilot.
B．The young man often travels by plane.
C．The writer's children enjoy travelling to Spain.
D．The young man has ever seen Native American life before.組卷：49引用：5難度：0.5

9．Jenny was the only child in her home.She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily.
She couldn't help weeping sorrowfully when she thought of the scolding from her mother.Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours，she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat，but it was not even possible for her，since she had nothing with her.She stood beside a stand for a while，watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.However，with no money in hand，she sighed and had to leave.
The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked， "Hey，girl，you want to have the noodles？
"Oh，yes…，but I don't have money on me…" she replied.
"That's nothing.I'll treat you today，" said the man. "Come in."
The seller brought her a bowl of noodles，whose smell was so attractive.
As she was eating，Jenny cried silently.
"What is it？" asked the man kindly.
"Nothing，actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she wiped her tears. "Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles，while my mother，drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so merciless compared to a stranger!!"
Hearing the words，the seller smiled， "Girl，do you really think so？I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times she cooked for you？Have you expressed your gratitude to her？"
Jenny sat there，speechless and numb with shock？she remembered Mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that？A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted，but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
On the way home，Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
