10、um has the largest collection of historic air and spacecraft in the world. The museum features 22 exhibition galleries, displaying hundreds of artifacts(人工制品) including the original Wright 1903 Flyer, the “Spirit of St. Louis,” and the Apollo 11 command module.

12、 National Mall at Independence Ave. at 7th St. SW, Washington, DC. The best way to get to the museum is the subway. The closest subway stations are Smithsonian and L Enfant Plaza. Or taking the bus is also convenient. However, you may be caught in traffic jams while driving.What to See and Do at the

13、 MuseumYou can ride in several 4-minute flight simulator(模拟装置) rides. Take a journey through space or to natural and manmade wonders of the world at the Lockheed Martin IMAX Theater. Watch a film through a five-story-high screen with six-channel digital surround sound. Take a 20-minute tour of the u

14、niverse at the Albert Einstein Planetarium with its high tech dual(双重的) digital projection system. Shows often sell out, so purchase your tickets before viewing the rest of the museum.

18、leaving the planet in spaceships. But the latest Chinese sci-fi movie, “The Wandering Earth”, offers a different idea.In the film, which is adapted from a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. Humans around the world work together to

19、build a huge engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. Instead of leaving Earthagainthis time were taking it with us.This idea didnt come from nowhere. For thousands of years, Chinese people have had a special emotion at their “homeland” in their hearts and minds. One old saying is “luoy

20、eguigen”, which means returning to ones homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. Or look to an ancient poem: “The season called the White Dew(白露) begins tonight/Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright.” These both show the strong relationship that Ch

21、inese people have had with their homeland.This is probably what sets “The Wandering Earth” apart from Hollywood-style space films. “What is Chinese sci-fi?” Guo Fan, the films director, said in an interview. “Films that can really express our cultural and spiritual core can be called Chinese sci-fi.

22、 Otherwise, were just copying others and telling the same American stories.”And the makers of “The Wandering Earth” may have chosen the best time to tell the Chinese sci-fi story. The film was screened on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard

23、 journey back to their hometowns. So to them, there is only one possible way to tell the story: Earth goes wherever humans go, because its our home.24.

24、g from Earth is a usual solutionD. spaceships are safe places for people to stay for long25. What can we know about “The Wandering Earth” from the passage?A. It follows the latest film fashion.B.

25、f watching films.26. What does Para 3 mainly talk about?A. The cultural background of the film.B. The famous poems mentioned in the film.C. The suitable season when the film was screened.D. The common points between Chinese films and foreign films.27. What can we infer from Guo Fans words?A. America

26、n sci-fi fails to express its culture.B. “The Wandering Earth” tells a foreign story.C. Chinese sci-fi should have its own features.D. Science fiction films should express certain spiritual cores.CToday we all communicate continually over the Internet. “How are these mobile apps secure?” They all us

27、e encryption(加密) to make sure no one else can eavesdrop(窃听) on your messages with your friends, family, and business connections. Apple was one of the first to do this for its customers when it started encrypting the messages between iCloud users. The drawback is the encryption only works between iC

28、loud users. When you send a message, using the Messages app in iOS, to your friend who uses a smart phone that runs a different mobile operating system, such as Android, the message is a clear, unencrypted text message.This brings us to the other mobile apps that will help us communicate securely. O

29、ne is to use a Virtual Private Network(虚拟专用网络,VPN). Many of us are used to taking our notebook computers down to the local coffee shop, or with us when we travel, connecting to any open Wi-Fi, and then keeping doing what we always do on the Internet. What you may not know, however, is that unlike ou

30、r home Wi-Fi networks which are encrypted, public Wi-Fi that we get at coffee shops, libraries, airports, etc., are not encrypted. Anything done on those wireless networks can be intercepted(截住) by illegal people.So how do you secure wireless? It is secured by using a VPN. As with the encryption met

31、hods for E-Mail and messaging, there are a variety of VPN providers out there that do not cost much money. It is not advised to use a free VPN provider. Free VPN providers can not be reliable because they get much of their money by pushing ads to their users. One way they do that is by tracking what

32、 you do, which kind of destroys the purpose of using a VPN in the first place.Returning to how a VPN can protect your communications, we could go into a lot of detail about what a VPN does, but we will keep it simple instead. Unlike the secure solutions above, which are very specific, a VPN works by

33、 creating a tunnel between you and a remote server. This tunnel is encrypted, which means that everything you send through it is kept safe from eavesdropping. This can be especially useful if you are working at any coffee shop or airport.28. What does the underlined word “drawback” in Para. 1 mean?A

34、. Secret. B. Feature.C. Influence. D. Disadvantage.29. According to Para. 2, we can know that _.A. some public Wi-Fi networks are unsafe B. public Wi-Fi networks do more good than harmC. public Wi-Fi networks are as safe as those of homeD. most open Wi-Fi networks are controlled by illegal people30.

35、 Why are readers advised not to use a free VPN?A. It knows whatever you do.B. Too many ads trouble you.C. It breaks the original rule of using VPN.D. Its encryption doesnt work sometimes.31. What does the writer mainly tell us in this passage?A. Which method of encryption is good for us?B. A method

36、of safe Internet communications.C. The importance of encryption on the Internet.D. How to use a VPN to encrypt on the Internet.DWhen international aid is given, steps must be taken to make sure that the aid reaches the people for whom it is intended. It is very difficult for a nation to give help di

37、rectly to people in another nation. The United Nations Organization (UNO) could undertake to direct the distribution of aid. Here however rises the problem of costs. Also tied with this is time. Perhaps the UNO could set up a body of devoted men and women in every country who can speedily distribute

38、 aid to victims of floods and earthquakes.More than the help that one nation can give to another during a disaster, it would be more effective to give other forms of help during normal times. A common saying goes, “Give me a fish and I eat for a day, teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime.” If we

39、 follow this wise saying, it would be right to teach people from less developed nations to take care of themselves. For example, a country could share its technology with another. This could be in simple areas like agriculture or in more complex areas like medical and health care. Even a small count

40、ry is able to help less developed nations. Sometimes what is taken for granted, like the setting up of a water purification plant(净水厂) or the administration(行政部门) of a school, could be useful for countries which are looking about to solve common problems. It does not cost much to share such simple t

41、hings. Exchange students could be attached for a number of months or years and learn the required knowledge. They can then take their knowledge back to their homelands and if necessary come back from time to time to clear doubts or to improve themselves. Such aid will be truly helpful and there is n

42、o chance of it being temporary or falling into the wrong hands.Many countries run extensive courses in all sorts of skills. Besides giving effective help to the countries concerned, there is also the build-up of friendships to consider. Giving direct help by giving materials may be effective in the

43、short run and must continue to be given in the event of emergencies. However, in the long run what is really effective would be the sharing of knowledge.32. According to the author, how could international aid reach the victims in time?A. By solving the cost problems.B. By solving the transportation

44、 problems.C. By relying on the direct distribution of the UNO.D. By setting up a body of devoted people in every country.33. What can we know from the second paragraph?A. Small countries hardly share technology with other countriesB. Less developed countries need nothing but technology support.C. Ex

45、change students can make great contributions to their motherland.D. Sharing technology with other countries will cost a country much.34. The second paragraph is developed mainly _.A. by comparisonB. by causeC. by example D. by process35. The author points out that offering financial support to count

46、ries in need _.A. can only solve emergencies momentarilyB. is a solution usually provided by developed countriesC. is the most effective way when facing emergenciesD. is the only solution a country can think of第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Theres nothing magical about

47、 the number 10,000. In fact, the idea of walking at least 10,000 steps a day for health goes back decades to a marketing movement started in Japan to help sell a pedometer(计步器). And, in the following years, it was adopted in the US as a goal to keep healthy. Its often the default setting(默认设置) on fi

48、tness trackers. 36 “The original basis of the number was not scientifically determined,” says researcher I-Min Lee of Brigham and Womens Hospital. She and her colleagues designed a study that included about 17,000 older women. It turns out that women who took about 4,000 steps per day got an increas

49、e in longevity(长寿), compared with women who took fewer steps. Lee says, “ 37 ”One surprise: Women who took 4,400 steps per day, on average, were about 40 percent less likely to die during the follow-up period of about four years compared with women who took 2,700 steps.Another surprise: 38 In other

50、words, women who walked more than 7,500 steps per day saw no additional increase in longevity.“I love this study.” says Kathleen Janz, who studies how physical activity influences health at the University of Iowa. She says the message that comes from this study is that older women can benefit from j

51、ust light walking. “They didnt need to spend money at the gym. 39 To me, this study suggests theres more benefit to light activity than we were previously thinking there might be,” she says. 40 It didnt measure things that many of us do that dont require steps, things like gardening, swimming or bik

52、ing. And its safe to think some women in the study were doing these other things that can influence health as well.A. It was sort of surprising.B. All they had to do was walk.C. But whats it really based on?D. But is walking really good for you mentally?E. The exercise guidelines call for all kinds

53、of daily movementF. The benefits of walking reached its limits at about 7,500 steps.G. Another thing Janz notes is that this study only measures walking.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分40分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。My dad never had enough money to send me to a we
