Laboratory，where I met with Ben ONeil，a food scientist.He makes and packages food for astronauts in space.I got to taste mixed fruits，Italian veggies，beef ravioli，blueberry cobbler，shrimp cocktail，and a mango peach smoothie.Space food tastes like the food we eat on Earth.Thats because it is Space food is made out of ingredients you can find at your grocery store.A special process is applied to keep the important nutrients that space explorers need to stay healthy.Next，I met with astronaut Terry Virts，who recently spent six months living and working on the International Space Station(ISS)“At an early age I wanted to be a pilot，”Virts told me.“But after reading the book Apollo，I decided to be an astronaut.”I asked if he was scared the first time he went into space.“No，”he said.“I was more concerned with not letting anyone down.Now，thinking back，I should have been afraid because of the 40，000 pounds of explosives under me at takeoff.”As my visit continued，I learned about NASAs new Orion spacecraft that is designed to take astronauts farther into space than ever before.I talked to Stu McClung，Orions spacecraft engineer，and toured the model spacecraft.McClung showed me the control panel (控制面板) and allowed me to strap into a launching seat.He also showed me a video that explains what happens when a spacecraft reenters Earths atmosphere.My last meeting was with Lucien Junkin，a NASA robotics engineer who helps to create rovers and humanoids.Rovers are space exploration vehicles and humanoids are robots that do work or activities in space similar to what humans do on Earth.I even got to drive a rover.【语篇解读】作者去参观了NASA的林顿约翰逊太空中心，本文是对那次经历的描述。4When tasting food provided by Ben ONeil，the author Afelt sad about astronauts in spaceBnever wanted to try the food againCdidnt think the food tasted differentDlearned the food wasnt very nutritiousC推理判断题。根据第二段的“Space food tastes like the food we eat on Earth.Thats because it is.”可推断，作者不觉得那些食物味道有什么特别的。5How did Terry Virts most probably feel after reading Apollo?AConcerned.BShocked.CConfused. DInspired.D推理判断题。根据第三段的“But after reading the book Apollo，I decided to be an astronaut.”可推断，Terry Virts读完这本书后很受鼓舞。6What did the author learn about from Stu McClung?ASpace travel.BEarths atmosphere.CAn advanced spacecraft.DThe history of spacecraft.C细节理解题。根据第四段的“As my visit continued，I learned about NASAs new Orion spacecraft that is designed.”以及“McClung showed me the control panel (控制面板) and allowed me to strap into a launching seat.”可知，从McClung那里，作者了解到了一艘先进的飞船。7Which of the following did the author do last there that day?ATalk with an astronaut.BDrive a model spacecraft.CTaste a mango peach smoothie.DDrive a space exploration vehicle.D细节理解题。根据末段的“I even got to drive a rover.”可知，作者在那里做的最后一件事是尝试开一次太空探测车。CPeople seldom feel neutral about poetry.Those who love it sometimes give the impression that it is an adequate substitute for food，shelter，and love.It isnt.Words，no matter how satisfying，are never an equivalent for life itself and its human experiences.Those who dislike poetry on principle sometimes claim，on the other hand，that poetry is only words and good for nothing.Thats not true either.It is easy to become frustrated by words in poetry or in lifebut when words represent and recreate genuine human feelings，as they often do in poetry，they can be very important.Poetry is an experience of words，and those who know how to read poetry can easily extend their experience of life，their sense of what other people are like，their awareness of themselves，and their range of human feelings.One reason poetry can be so important is that it is so closely concerned with feelings.Poetry is often full of ideas，too，and sometimes poems can be powerful experiences of the mind，but most poems are primarily about how people feel rather than how people think.Poems provide，in fact，a language for feeling，and one of poetrys most outstanding values involves its attempt to express the inexpressible.How can anyone，for example，put into words what it means to be in love or what it feels like to lose someone cares about? Poetry tries，and it often captures exactly the shade of emotion that feels just right to a reader.No single poem can be said to express all the things that love or death feels like，or means，but one of the joys of experiencing poetry occurs when we read a poem and want to say，“Yes，that is just what it is like；I know exactly what that line means but Ive never been able to express it so well.”Poetry can be the voice of our feelings even when our minds are speechless with grief or joy.【语篇解读】文章向我们介绍了诗歌的重要性和它的本质。8“People seldom feel neutral about poetry” in Para.1 in this context means that A. many people think that poetry is neutralBpeople always differ in their views about poetryCpeople rarely take a biased opinion about poetryDpeople generally think of poetry as extremely important or totally uselessD句意猜测题。“People seldom feel neutral about poetry”是第一段的主题句，从下文所陈述的人们对诗歌的态度可知，一般说来，人们认为诗歌要么非常重要，要么一点用也没有。9Poetry tries，persistently，to express Awhat love and death meanBwhat people think about themselvesCwhat people feel but find it hard to describeDhow people go through lifeC推理判断题。由第二段第三句可知，人们不断地通过诗来表达难以表达的感情。10This passage is mainly about Athe structure of poetryBthe nature and importance of poetryCthe components of poetryDthe appreciation of poetryB主旨大意题。纵观全文可知，文章主要讲述了诗歌的本质和重要性。.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)How to Raise Money for Your Favorite CharityAt the end of the year，we are often inspired to do more for people in need. 11 Dont worry.Heres a quick and easy tiplist to make such a worthy act successful. 12 You need to make sure that both you and your participants enjoy the event.So keep it simple and make sure that you add some fun，whether its special decoration，a bag for each participant or guest，or a special theme.Get team support. 13 Teamwork may give you some new ideas and help give a unique feature to your event.Make sure that you break down the work among your team.Plan for the “whatifs？”If you are planning to hold an event outdoors，or if you are relying on a famous person as a guest of honor，make sure you think of a few possible alternatives. 14 This is the key to successful event planning.Timing is everything.Check your community calendar to make sure there are no important community events on the day that you are planning your event.You might want to check with other communities or nonprofit organizations nearby. 15 Check out your favorite charitys website for ideas.Many websites offer advice on how to raise money.For example，the human rights charity Amnesty International lists events and ideas on its Website.AKeep it fun and simple.BTell the charity about the event.CHave no idea of where to begin?DTurn to friends for some creative ideas.ERemember to thank anyone who has donated.FTry to pick the date that will bring in the best attendance.GWhat if it starts raining or if your honored guest doesnt show up?【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了为慈善组织募捐的一些小窍门。11C根据本空后的“Dont worry.”和“tiplist”可知，这里指不要担心，“不知从何入手”，本文将给出为慈善组织募捐的一些小窍门。12A根据本段中的“simple”和“fun”可知，本段建议“让(募捐活动)有趣且简单”。13D本段给出的建议是获得团队支持。D项(向朋友救助，获得一些有创意的点子)是获得团队支持的一个方法。14G本段给出的建议是为意外状况做好打算。根据本空前的“If you are planning to hold an event outdoors，or if you are relying on a famous person as a guest of honor”可知，G项是上述两种计划可能出现的意外，即：“下雨”和“贵宾没有出席”。15F本段给出的建议是规划好活动的举办时间。本空前两句提到要查看自己社区以及附近社区或组织的活动安排，避免在你组织活动的那天有其他重要的活动，这样做的目的就是“尽量选择能带来最高出席率的日期”。.完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)I was coming back from work late in
