1．Although there are plenty of places to visit in Beijing，people will also consider going to the surrounding cities.The most convenient options are Tianjin and Hebei Province.This article will help you put together a list of attractions worth paying a visit.
The eye of Tianjin
Tianjin's landmark building，F(xiàn)erris wheel "Tianjin eye"，is one.It is the world's only Ferris wheel built on a bridge.The bridge was christened the Yongle bridge.The diameter of the Ferris wheel is 110 meters，and the height of the highest point is about 120 meters，which is equivalent to the height of 30 multi-storey buildings.The height gives visitors sitting in the Ferris wheel a view of up to 40 kilometers，provided that the weather is clear.So check the weather report before going.Some people choose to go there in the evening.If they are lucky enough，they can take pictures of Tianjin at sunset.There are many people who like the night view，but don't be too late.Otherwise，it's not worth it if all the lights go out suddenly when you just get to the top.I personally recommend you to go there at night to enjoy the night view.After all，beside the Ferris wheel is Haihe river.It is amazing to look at the city light and its reflections on the river.
Panshan，Tianjin
Panshan is a rare natural scenic spot in Tianjin.It was previously administered by Ji county，which was later changed into Jizhou district.How is the view in Panshan？It's just so-so.If there are no mountains that people can climb in Tianjin，it cannot be graded as a 5 A scenic spot.It's kind of well-known in Beijing，Tianjin and Hebei.It's all because of Emperor Qianlong.The emperor is said to have visited Panshan 32 times and wrote more than 1000 poems.Although the scenery of Panshan is OK，it is not very famous.
Chengde summer resort，Hebei Province
Chengde summer resort is also called Rehe Xinggong.It began to be built in 1703.It was being built through three emperors' periods，Kangxi，Yongzheng and Qianlong.It is now the largest ancient imperial palace in China.It includes the palace area，mountain area，lake area and plain area.It covers an area of 5.64 million square meters.The Summer Palace covers 2.9 million square meters.It is almost twice the size of the Summer Palace.
（1）What can we know about The eye of Tianjin？

B．The city's acquaintance is well made by viewing it from The eye of Tianjin.
C．Most people pay a visit to The eye of Tianjin at sunset.

2．Two demographic essays published in May claiming that surfing the internet might lower people's willingness to start a family have made a splash online.The logic is as follows：
By surfing the internet，fatigue increases so much that it changes people's attitude toward starting a family.Besides，while consumption gets a boost the more people browse the internet，it shrinks the budget for marriage and family life.
Assuming that people's decisions are influenced by what they read online，one would assume social media is full of articles advocating singlehood.Instead，online opinions encouraging people not to settle for a family life account for a very small percentage.If there are those who advocate for a Double Income No Child or single life，there are also those who prefer having more children.
If there are few takers for family life，it is only because people feel the pinch of the high costs of raising a family.
The essays concluded that the percentage of internet users wanting to raise a family was 10.5 percent lower than those family-lovers who do not use the internet.It is not clear how the essayists define "internet users" and "those who do not use it".Almost every young person has access to the internet and there is hardly anybody who "does not use it".
If one tries to look for a group that has no access to the internet，one wonders how small that group would be.Besides，those who "use the internet" can belong to various age groups.For example，how good is the theory when it comes to the internet users who already have a family？
The low birth rate does pose a challenge to the nation's long-term development strategy，and it is important to reverse the trend by boosting people's willingness to start a family.In order to do that，there are many measures that can be taken，such as improving medical care for mothers and babies.It is time certain scholars focus on the real challenge rather than on the internet.
（1）What can we infer from the paragraph 2 and paragraph 3？
A．Surfing the internet allows people to escape from reality.
B．People have a tendency to overspend on the internet.
C．People are becoming less responsible for their family.
D．Surfing the internet does more harm than good.
（2）Which one of the following sentences echoes paragraph 5？
①In modern society，people are atoms that are thrown around in different functional areas.
②We have moved away from deeply interconnected communities and experienced the disappearance of "nearby."
③In the embryonic stage of the Internet era，many communication scholars believed that it would be the end of the authoritative mimetic environment （權(quán)威擬態(tài)環(huán)境），and the technological network would connect people together in a real way to reduce the loneliness and misunderstanding of "atomic survival".
④The Internet in McLuhan's concept of "global village" is a zutopia where people reach each other and mutual trust.
A． ①
B． ②
C． ③
D． ④
（3）How does the passage mainly develop？
A．By making comparison.
B．By analyzing cause and effect.
C．By listing examples.
D．By criticizing social phenomena.
（4）What is the main idea the author wants to convey through this passage？
A．The real population challenge is offline.
B．The internet is unavoidable at present.
C．The consumption nowadays is unaffordable.
D．Nation's challenge calls for attention.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.3

7．Astronomers have discovered a so-called 'planet killer' asteroid，which has an orbit that may someday place it in the Earth's path.
An international team of asteroid hunters based in Chile chanced（1）the space rock when making observations of the inner solar system，between the orbits of Earth and Venus，which is a notoriously tricky region to study because of the glare from the sun.
The asteroid，which is called 2022 AP7，is 1.5 kilometers wide，making it the largest potentially hazardous asteroid（2）（detect） in the past eight years.（3）an object to be deemed potentially hazardous it must orbit within 7.5 million kilometers of Earth，and be large enough to cause significant damage in the event of an impact.
The consequences of a large asteroid colliding（4）Earth depend on a number of factors，including its density，velocity，the angle of approach，and the location of the impact.It is thought that the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 million years ago was around 10 kilometers wide.
An asteroid the size of 2022 AP7 has the potential to cause climate effects on a global scale，hugely disrupting civilization and leading to the（5）（extinct） of many species，perhaps even the human race.
The team of astronomers from Spain，Italy，Chile，and the United States discovered two other asteroids，called 2021 LJ4 and 2021 PH27，（6）have orbits that are unlikely to intersect with the Earth.
"So far，we have found two large near-Earth asteroids that are about 1 kilometer across，a size that we call 'planet killers'，" said Scott Sheppard，an astronomer at the Earth and Planets Laboratory of the Carnegie Institution for Science in the US，（7）the lead author of the study，published in the Astronomical Journal this week.
"Only about 25 asteroids with orbits completely within Earth's orbit（8）（discover） to date because of the difficulty of observing near the glare of the sun，" he added.
The team managed to make out 2022 AP7 by using the Dark Energy Camera，or DECam.The camera was mounted on the Victor M.Blanco 4-meter Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in northern Chile，a region favored by astronomers due to its high altitude and clear skies.
The DECam is highly sensitive，particularly in the red and near-infrared parts of the spectrum，and was originally constructed for a 2013-2019 survey that explored the nature of dark energy.Due to the（9）（sun） glare，the astronomers only had a brief 10-minute period during twilight hours to collect their data.
"Our twilight survey is scouring the area within the orbits of Earth and Venus for asteroids，" said Sheppard. "There are likely only a few near-Earth asteroids with similar sizes left to find，and these large undiscovered asteroids likely have orbits that keep them interior（10）the orbits of Earth and Venus most of the time."組卷：10引用：1難度：0.5
