12、、B、C 和和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A If you are looking for something fun and educational to do in Maryland, why not visit the Maryland Science Center? It is located at 601 Light Street, Baltimore, MD 2. The ticket prices vary depending on ages, groups and the exhibits you choose. Introduction The
13、 Maryland Science Center is basically a museum, but it gives everyone a chance to learn through experience and play, rather than just glance at an exhibit. Activities You can learn about various topics, including outer space, the human body, dinosaurs, electricity, marine(海洋的) biology, energy, and m
14、uch more. You can also take part in the interactive activities, such as racing bubbles, digging for dinosaur fossils, using puzzle pieces to construct cars, and so much more. The Davis Planetarium(天文馆天文馆) At the Davis Planetarium, you can lie back in a chair and look at the stars while still inside
15、the Science Center. The stars will appear on the ceiling of the theatre as you watch them. There are different shows to catch at the Davis Planetarium. You can learn about the galaxy and astronomy during the Dark Matters show. Learn about the stars and planets during the Sky Live show. The One World
16、 One Sky show allows children to explore the stars. The Live from the Sun show will teach you all about the hot sun. The Kids Room For children, they cant miss the Kids Room. They will be able to play in a water area, construct dams and water towers, push buttons, ring doorbells, build with blocks,
17、and more, and definitely they will learn a lot. In addition, there is also an area for kids of two years old and under, where they can crawl, walk and explore safely with soft toys. 21. What do we know about the Maryland Science Center? A. It charges different prices for parents and Children. B. It
18、is regarded as the most popular museum in Maryland. C. It is a museum where there are many famous exhibitions. D. It is mainly designed for children and their families to play together. 22. If you want to know why the sun shines, which show should you choose? A. Dark Matters. B. Live from the Sun. C
19、. One World One Sky. D. Sky Live. 23. What can we learn about the Kids Room from the passage? A. It is designed for parents who have children. B. It provides a good opportunity for parents to relax. C. Children there need to be accompanied by their parents. D. It is a good place for children to lear
20、n and play at the same time. B Micro plastics are tiny bits of plastic often too small to be seen. Plastic doesnt decompose like natural materials. Instead, it just breaks into smaller and smaller pieces. No one knows exactly how much plastic is in the oceans. Since the sea is so large and so deep,
21、it s hard to get a good idea of how much plastic it contains. But in recent years, scientists have made greater efforts to get a more accurate idea. Some studies have suggested that since 1950, about 17 million metric tons of plastic have entered the Atlantic Ocean. Scientists believe that the plast
22、ic previously found on beaches and on the surface of the water is only about 1% of all the plastic in the oceans. Researchers from the United Kingdom (UK) want to find out where the other 99% was. For two months in 2016 the researchers took samples at 12 different locations in the Atlantic Ocean fro
23、m the UK to South America. They collect water samples from three different depths in the top 200 meters. By running the water through special filters (过滤器), they were able to collect the micro plastics, which they could view and study with a microscope. Based on their measurements, the researchers l
24、earned that just the top 200 meters of the Atlantic Ocean holds between 12 and 21 million metric tons of plastics. But the Atlantic Ocean is very deep, and the scientists only checked the top 200 meters. They say that if microplastics are spread through the rest of the Atlantic like they were in the
25、 top 200 meters, thin there are probably about 200 million metric tons of microplastics in the Atlantic Ocean. Though the scientists only studied the Atlantic ocean the results suggest that there may be far more microplastic in all oceans than we realized. The problems go far beyond ocean pollution.
26、 Microplastic particles have been found just in everywhere around the world from Antarctica to the bottom of the sea. Scientist predict that the amount of plastic entering our oceans is likely to triplet over the next 20 years. Having a good idea of how much plastic is already then might be a good f
27、irst step to fighting the problem. 24. What does the underlined word “decompose” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. turn up B. break down C. give off D. bring out 25. What is the latest idea about the plastic in the seas? A. Previous data of plastic consists of only a very small part. B. There is only 17 milli
28、on metric ton of plastic on the earth. C. The amount of plastic in the seas is on the decrease in recent years. D. The amount of plastic in the seas is increasing by 1 % yearly. 26. What is the authors attitude according to the text? A. Pessimistic. B. Confident. C. Objective. D. Conserved. 27. What
29、 does the author expect to take place? A. More pollutants will turn out in the future. B. Measures will be taken to deal with plastic. C. The oceans will be cleaned in the future. D. More people will be aware of plastic pollution. C Sound may offer a creative way to take the oceans temperature. Clim
30、ate change is steadily warming the seas, which have absorbed about 90 percent of the excess heat trapped by greenhouse gases. This warming contributes to sea-level rise, endangers species and influences weather patterns. But tracking the warming is tricky. Ship-based observations capture only snapsh
31、ots in time over a tiny portion of the water. Satellite observations cannot enter very deep below the surface. The most detailed picture of ocean heat comes from Argo, which can drop down to around 6,500 feet. But there are only about 4,000 such floats, and they cannot sample deeper parts of the oce
32、ans. In Science, researchers at the California Institute of Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences compared the travel speeds of sounds produced by undersea earthquakes to detect ocean warming over wider areas. Because sound travels faster in warmer water, differences in speed can reveal cha
33、nging temperatures. “Theyre opening up a whole new area of study,” says Princeton University geophysicist Frederik Simons, who was not involved in the research. Inspired by those early efforts to measure ocean heat with sound, Caltech researcher Wenbo Wu thought to monitor low-frequency sound waves
34、sent out by earthquakes below the seafloor. “I know these earthquakes are very powerful sources,” Wu says, “So why not try to use the earthquakes?” He and his team tested the idea near Indonesias island of Nias, where the Indo-Australian Plate is bumping under the Sunda Plate. The researchers gather
35、ed sound data from 4,272 earthquakes of magnitude 3 or greater from 2004 to 2016, and they compared sound wave speeds from quakes that originated in the same spot over the years. By modeling the differences, often just fractions of a second, they found that the ocean near Nias was warming by about 0
36、.08 degree Fahrenheit per decademore than the 0.047 degree F suggested by Argos data. Less than one degree F does not sound large, but it takes considerable heat to warm the entire eastern Indian Ocean. The new method is promising, says University of Hawaii oceanographer Bruce Howe, who was not invo
37、lved in the work. Meanwhile Simons and his colleagues are exploring an alternative technique, employing dozens of underwater microphones called hydrophones to catch more earthquake sounds. He notes that finding out the floats precise locations will be challenging, however. Overcoming such challenges
38、 would fill in important gaps, Wu says, “We really need different methods of gathering the data as much as possible.” 28. What do people do to take oceans temperature? A. Ships sail across all the oceans to take photos. B. Satellites are used to provide data on ocean heat. C. Argo enters the deepest
39、 seas for detailed pictures. D. The numbers of floats hit a record high for samples. 29. Why can sound be a method for detecting ocean warming? A. Because its speed varies with the temperature of water. B. Because it accompanies earthquakes below the seafloor. C. Because it is approved by Chinese an
40、d US researchers. D. Because its value has been proved by previous efforts. 30. What is the similarity between the researches by Wu and Simons? A. They use hydrophones as floats. B. They exchange their data with Argo. C. They meet the same trouble at work. D. They employ new research methods. 31. Wh
41、at can be the best title for the passage? A. Undersea earthquakes B. Climate and seas C. Sound and ocean heat D. New method found D Should doctors ever lie to benefit their patient to speed recovery or to cover the coming of death? In medicine as in law, government, and other lines of work, the requ
42、irements of honesty often seem dwarfed (变矮小) by greater needs: the need to protect from brutal news or to uphold a promise of secrecy; to advance the public interest. What should doctors say, for example, to a 46-year-old man coming in for a routine physical checkup just before going on vacation wit
43、h his family who, though he feels in perfect health, is found to have a form of cancer that will cause him to die within six months? Is it best to tell him the truth? If he asks, should the doctor reject that he is ill, or minimize fee gravity of the illness? Should they at least hide the truth unti
44、l after the family vacation? Doctors face such choices often. At times, they see important reasons to lie for the patients own sake; in their eyes, such lies differ sharply from self-serving ones. Studies show that most doctors sincerely believe that the seriously ill patients do not want to know th
45、e truth about their condition, and that informing them risks destroying their hope, so that they may recover more slowly, or deteriorate (恶化) faster, perhaps even commit suicide. But other studies show that, contrary to the belief of many physicians; a great majority of patients do want to be told t
46、he truth, even about serious illness, and feel cheated when they learn that they have been misled. We are also learning that truthful information, humanly conveyed, helps patients cope with illness: help them tolerate pain better, need less medicine, and even recover faster after operation. There is
47、 urgent need to debate this issue openly. Not only in medicine, but in other professions as well, practitioners may find themselves repeatedly in difficulty where serious consequences seem avoidable only through deception (欺骗). Yet the public has every reason to know professional deception, for such
48、 practices are peculiarly likely to become deeply rooted, to spread, and to trust. Neither in medicine, nor in law, government, or the social sciences can there be comfort in the old saying, “What you dont know cant hurt you.” 32. What is the passage mainly about? A. Whether patients really want to
49、know the truth of their condition. B. Whether patients should be told the truth of their illness. C. Whether different studies should be carried on. D. Whether doctors are honesty with their patients. 33. For the case mentioned in paragraph 2, most doctors will _. A. tell the patient the truth as so
50、on as possible B. choose to lie to him about his condition at that moment C. tell him to shorten the family vacation D. advise him to cancel the family vacation 34. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Sometimes government tells lies because they need to meet the public interest. B. Doctors believe if
