  2. My teacher,Mr.August J.Bachmann,was the most influential teacher I ever had.

    I had gotten into trouble in his class:Another student had pushed me for fun,and I became angry and began to hit him.Mr.Bachmann stopped the fight,but instead of sending me to the office,he sat me down and asked a simple question,“Penna,why are you wasting your life?Why aren't you going to college?”

    I didn't know anything about colleges or scholarships.No one had ever considered that a fatherless boy from the poorest neighborhood had a future.That day,instead of rushing off for lunch,he stayed and explained possible education options to me.At the end of our talk,he sent me to see a secretary who had a child at a state college.This was in 1962 at Emerson High School in Union City,New Jersey.

    Well,55 years have passed,and what have I done with the knowledge he gave me?I gained a PhD from Fordham University when I was only 29.I taught English and social studies and then moved up the chain of command from teacher to principal(校长).

    I've sat on the board for Magnet Schools of America and represented that organization at the United Nations.I've won a number of great educational awards.But where would I be if a truly caring teacher had not taken the time out of his lunch period to speak to me?It was without question only his confidence in me that helped me forward.

    I have repaid his kindness hundreds of times by encouraging misguided youngsters to aim higher.If I have saved any children,it is because of him.If I have been a successful educator,it is because I had a great role model in Mr.Bachmann.

    1.The writer ________ before Mr.Bachmann talked to him.

  3. Cats may have “attachment (依恋) styles” that are similar to those of people. Contrary to cats' original reputation, most cats form deep, close relationships with their owners, researchers say.

    A team of researchers studied the relationship between the owners and their kittens by a type of psychology experiment. They set up a room, which is bare except for a few toys. The team instructed each owner to sit in a circle outlined on the floor in the middle of the room and ignore his or her kitten for two minutes, not making eye contact or speaking unless the cat stepped inside the circle. Owners were allowed to interact (互动) with their pet if the cat entered the circle. Then, the owner left the cat alone in the room for two minutes, before re-entering and again sitting inside the circle.

    The researchers tested 79 kittens and their owners and recorded each pair’s interactions on camera. Based on how the cat reacted to their owner’s return, the researchers believed 70 of the participants have attachment styles. The findings indicate that the attachment is probably a biological characteristic that may have evolved (进化) to improve survival.

    To see if a particular kitten’s attachment could change with training, 39 of the kittens were arranged to join a special class and 31 weren’t. For six weeks of classes, the kittens that attended a special class socialized with other cats and unfamiliar adults, and learned how to sit or walk on leash (皮带). But when all of the kittens repeated the original experiment, very few switched attachment styles. It proves that the relationship formed between a human and a cat is stable over time, which means those first interactions are important, the researchers say.

    The team hopes that understanding how cats bond with humans could help more stray (无主的) cats be adopted.

    1.What is the original impression that cats make on people according to the text?

    A.Indifferent. B.Close.

    C.Kind. D.Lazy.

    2.What is the second paragraph mainly about?

    A.The process of the experiment.

    B.The type of the experiment.

    C.The achievements of the team.

    D.The effect of the research.

    3.What does the training classes suggest about a cat’s attachment to humans?

    A.It changes easily.

    B.It forms in six weeks.

    C.It lasts for a long time.

    D.It only shows to its owner.

    4.From which is the text probably taken?

    A.A biology textbook.

    B.A research paper.

    C.A health magazine.

    D.A travel brochure

  4. If humans ever settle on Mars, they will need water. There is just one problem---there seems to be only huge sheets of ice. Luckily, we know how to drill(钻孔) ice for water. Such methods are already used in Antarctica, and researchers now think they could get them to work on the Red Planet, too. The atmosphere of Mars is too dry to make extracting water vapour from it possible. So ice seems the best bet. But the obvious ice sheets are in the unlivable polar ice caps and would be difficult to reach for drilling.

    However, in 2018, at the edge of the cliffs, NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spotted relatively accessible water ice that is probably at least 130metres thick and covered in just a few metres of rock and dust. These may be the best place to get the water needed for future exploration of the planet.

    The drilling techniques needed have already been developed for cold areas on Earth where we need to melt buried ice for water. In the early 1960s the US Army used a type of subsurface reservoir(水库)called Rod Well, in army camps in Greenland. The method works by drilling through the ground into the ice, melting the ice to create a pool, and then pumping water up. By supplying heat continuously, they create a reservoir and a steady water         supply. It has been used in remote areas such as the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station Stephen Hoffman at the Aerospace Corporation in Texas and his colleagues simulated(模拟)how a Rod Well would do on Mars. They found that with the power of 9 kilowatts (千瓦)to melt ice, it could in theory produce about 380 litres of water each day and maintain a reservoir of constant size at the bottom of a borehole(钻孔). That is close to the average daily water use each person in the US, but about 10 times what each astronaut on the International Space Station uses daily.

    1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "extracting" in the first paragraph ?

    A.obtaining B.protecting

    C.Preventing D.choosing

    2.Why does the author mention the Rod Well in Paragraph 3?

    A.To explain how water ice is drilled on Mars.

    B.To tell about the history of water ice drilling techniques.

    C.To prove the importance of water ice drilling techniques

    D.To show techniques for drilling water wells in Martian ice exist.

    3.On average, how much water does an astronaut on the International Space Station use daily?

    A.10 litres B.38 litres

    C.160 litres D.380 litres

    4.What would be the best title for the text?

    A.Preparing to settle on the Red Planet one day.

    B.Finding water on the Red Planet for survival.

    C.Using some ways to create a livable environment on Mars.

    D.Drilling water wells in Martian ice to survive on Mars.
