　　Washington: NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface. The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface, according to new Hubble observation.

　　New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon, which is the largest in our whole solar system, is home to a subsurface ocean.

　　Scientists estimate the ocean is 95 kilometers thick, which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans. But unlike our salty waters, Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometers of ice.

　　While scientists have speculated(推測) since 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede—the largest moon in our solar system—until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft, which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.

　　This discovery marks an important milestone, highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish. In its 25 years in orbit, Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system. A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.

　　Scientists_have_already_confirmed_the_existence_of_an_ocean_on_Europe,_another moon orbiting Jupiter, and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.

　　Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth, but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets. Using these same principles, scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant planets as well.

　　語篇解讀：這是一篇關于天文知識的資訊報道。科學家們通過Hubble望遠鏡判斷在木星上發現曾有海洋的存在，人們期待了更多的地球以外的生命存在。

　　1．What can we learn about the Ganymede from the passage?

　　A．It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.

　　C．It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.

　　D．Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.

　　答案：B　細節理解題。根據通過第五段中“A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.”可知海洋增加了人們關于地球以外的生命的興奮。故選B。

　　答案：C　句意猜測題。 通過橫線句子中的“confirm the existence” 和“NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.”可知歐洲上空可能有海洋是確定的。故選C。

　　4．What type of writing does this passage belong to?

　　A．A term essay B．A news report

　　(2024·菏澤市高三二模)

　　Around four years ago, I received a call from the principal of our school as to the “Parents View” talk the next morning. He asked me to speak to the group. After the call, my whole body became feverish and panicky. The time from his call to the next morning seemed like years. The whole night, I could not sleep with many ominous_apprehensions in mind. One of them was to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage. I thought, “If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”

　　I reached the school in time. Before my turn came, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn't even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness, Public Speaking.

　　After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. He told me that this happens to everyone. Even great speaker, faced the same things when they started. He suggested that I come again next time.

　　Around one month later, I was invited to refer to a topic on Motivation. This time I was feeling comfortable. My speech was not only appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged and praised my efforts.

　　After delivering this presentation successfully, I became more confident. I said to myself, “If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates others, I can now speak in front of others too.”

　　I started delivering lectures in my plant, on various topics like Self Motivation, Personality Development, Personal Excellence, Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me. I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.

　　(2024·聊城一中階段測試)

　　What will you do if you can't eat everything bought in the canteen? __1__ According to a survey, what students waste every year could feed over 10 million people.

　　__2__ According to Xinhua News Agency, the food wasted by Chinese people is about 50 million tons of grain every year, which could feed 200 million people.

　　Food waste, which has become a global issue, serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues in different countries. In the West, for instance, consumerism, the belief that it's a good thing to use a lot of goods and services, is often to blame for food waste. __3__ Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food. On campus, a generation of single children is less aware of the food waste issue. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil (辛勞) others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat.

　　__4__ There are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas. They don't have enough food to eat. Many children die for lack of nutrition each year in some African countries. And farmers work very hard to grow the crops. __5__ It's also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste.

　　A．Students' waste is extremely serious.

　　B．China, in turn, features its own eating culture.

　　C．Students can never realize the serious food crisis.

　　D．Compared with them, some live in a different world.

　　E．But canteen waste is merely the tip of the iceberg.

　　F．So there's no excuse that we should waste our food.

　　G．Most of us would simply throw away any leftover food.

　　語篇解讀：文章主要講的是浪費食物的現象。學生往往會把吃剩下的飯菜倒掉，學校食堂的浪費現象只是冰山一角，我國每年浪費的糧食有大約兩千萬噸。做題時注意上下文的聯系和段落大意。

　　1．G　根據第二行“what students waste every year could feed over 10 million people”可知，學生們會把吃不完的飯菜倒掉，由此造成的浪費能夠養活一千多萬人，故選G。

　　2．E　根據“the food wasted by Chinese people is about 50 million tons of grain every year, which could feed 200 million people”可知，中國人浪費掉的糧食能夠養活兩億人，說明食堂的浪費現象只是冰山一角，故選E。

　　3．B　根據本段首句“Food waste... serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues”和“Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.”可知，食物浪費現象反映一個國家的飲食文化和習慣，故選B。

　　4．D　根據“There are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas.”可知，本段講的是處于饑餓中的人們，故選D。

　　5．F　根據“Many children die for lack of nutrition each year...And farmers work very hard to grow the crops.”可知，世界其它地方的孩子因饑餓而死，而且農民種糧食很辛苦，因此我們沒有理由浪費糧食，每個人都應該想一想該怎樣減少食物浪費，故選F。

　　Ⅲ.語法填空

　　閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入適當的內容(1個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。

　　Tim：Hi，Susan. I've been wondering when I'd run into you. What are you busy with?

　　Susan：Nice to meet you here, Tim. I'm buying some Christmas gifts

　　for those __1__ work with me，but it's really __2__ headache.

　　Tim：Maybe I can give you some advice. Firstly, you should consider __3__(divide) them into different groups—who are the people that are your friends as well as your workmates and who are the people you don't know well __4__ see pretty much daily.

　　Susan：OK.Then __5__ should I do?

　　Tim：For the friends, you can buy__6__ some personal gifts. Chocolate, for example.

　　Susan：This is what I always give，but I know one of my friends，Mary, is __7__ a diet.

　　Tim：Does she like fruit or coffee? Anyway, think of a gift that you know your friend likes.

　　Susan：Well, I think fruit is helpful to keep __8__(health). What about others?

　　Tim：You can send them cards.

　　Susan: Christmas cards?

　　Tim：Yes，you can afford them. More __9__(important), it reminds them that you're thinking of them.

　　Susan：Thank you for your suggestion, Tim. You __10__(help) me

　　out.

　　語篇解讀：蘇珊正為給同事買圣誕禮物而頭疼，這時蒂姆給了她一些建議。

　　1．who　“__1__ work with me”為定語從句，先行詞為those，關系詞在定語從句中作主語，且指“人”，故用who引導。

　　2．a　句意：……但那真是件令人頭疼的事情。headache為可數名詞，此處表泛指，故與不定冠詞連用。

　　3．dividing　設空處作consider的賓語，consider后需加動名詞作賓語，故設空處用dividing。

　　4．but　句意：……哪些是你不是很熟悉但每天見面很多的人。由此可見前后兩部分為轉折關系，故用but連接。

　　5．what　句意：好的。然后我該做什么呢？考查疑問代詞。根據上下文邏輯可知設空處用what“什么”。

　　6．them　buy后常加雙賓語，故此處用them指代前面提到的friends。

　　7．on　on a diet為固定短語，意為：在節食。

　　8．healthy　keep healthy“保持健康”。形容詞healthy作系動詞keep的表語。

　　9．importantly　“more importantly”常用于句首修飾整個句子，意為：更重要的是。

　　10．have helped　考查時態。既然蒂姆給了蘇珊很好的建議，因此可推斷出蒂姆已經幫助蘇珊擺脫了困境，故設空處用現在完成時態。
