阅读理解

    Big data(数据) is lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites(社交媒体网站), companies and governments. One set of data can have people's names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.

    Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need more help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.

    Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he, she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.

    How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.

(1)、This reading is about ______.
A、what big data is and how it is used B、what schools and hospitals people like C、where important data is collected and stored D、how big data is controlled by governments and companies

Since humans sent the first satellite(卫星) to space in the 1950s,scientists have been studying an important topic:how to grow plants in space if humans live there one day.A recent experiment at the Tiangong space station makes a big step forward.

Chinese astronauts have successfully grown rice seedlings(幼苗) during the Shenzhou XIV mission.The researcher said,"The rice seedlings are growing very well."Since the rice experiment began on July 29,the seedlings of the tall shoot rice variety(高杆水稻品种) have reached a height of 30 centimeters.The seedlings of the dwarf rice variety(矮杆水稻品种) have grown to 5 centimeters,China Daily reported on August 30,2022.

While there have been other rice experiments in space,this one is the first of its kind to produce the complete life cycle of a plant—it begins with a seed and ends with a grown plant producing new seeds.

Such food﹣growing experiments are not for astronauts.They can solve food problems on Earth.By sending seeds to space,we can create mutated(突变的) seeds that can produce higher yields(产量)on Earth.

For more than 30 years,China has developed over 260 new types of seeds in space.They are planted on Earth every year.

According to Yao Tong,an engineer from Hainan Aerospace Engineering Breeding Research Center,30%of strawberries sold in Beijing are "space strawberries",which are as big as eggs.The center has also produced "space tomatoes"with yields increased by 30%,and "space bananas"with a growth cycle shortened from 13 months to 9 months.

 阅读短文,然后根据内容回答问题。

"May we all be blessed with longevity. Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together(但愿人长久,千里共婵娟)."wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.

The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. On this day, people celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country.

In ancient China, that day was a harvest(收获) festival because crops(庄稼) were harvested during that period. It was also a time for relaxation and celebration.

Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.

The Mid-Autumn has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion(团聚).

With the beautiful moon up in the sky, people sit together, enjoy the full moon, eat mooncakes and fruit, share the stories, and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live afar.

 阅读下面短文,请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,使短文通畅,结构完整,其中有一项是多余的。

It is said that the eyes are the windows to our soul(灵魂). {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Your eyes need everyday attention.

First, you have to pay more attention to what you eat. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}It's good for your eyes. Also, a regular amount of vitamins(维生素) A and B2 should also be taken.

Second, you must have regular and sound sleep. This relaxes the eye muscles and gives them the rest they need. Sleep can help the body repair its tired tissue(组织). {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Less sleep can give you dark circles under your eyes and you may feel sleepy during the daytime.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}Blink(眨眼) your eyes at regular periods to keep your eyes moist(湿润的). Besides, be sure to do some eye exercises to relax your eyes after you study for a long period of time.

Last, you should treat your eyes correctly. For example, if you get something in your eye, don't start rubbing(揉) it. Rubbing is bad for your eyes Don't read or write in poor or bright light because it can make your eyes tired. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Too many indoor activities like reading, writing, watching TV or working on a computer can also make eyes tired, so rest outdoors is necessary.

China has also taken steps to protect the students' eyesight, such as larger printing in students' textbooks, at least two hours' outdoor activities a day, regular eyesight checking, less time on e-books and so on.

A. Eat more fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, eggs and milk.

B. Next, it's necessary for you to exercise your eyes every day

C. To have healthy eyes, you have to look after them properly.

D. You should sleep for at least seven to eight hours every day.

E. Then, it's important to spend more time walking outdoors.

F. Remember to wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from sunlight.

 阅读下面材料,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

In your school, are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn? If you don't like a subject, can you choose not to take it? Of course, the answer is "No" in China. 

In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida, students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college, while others will not. At this school students are able to find subjects they are interested in, and possibly even find the field(领域) they would like to go into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology, math, a foreign language, or study skills like computer or car repair. 

Some people think this is a good idea, because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future, and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills they need to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think it will make it difficult for students to discover different possibilities(潜力). They point out that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they will want to do in the future. How do you think? Would you like to be able to choose your own classes? Many useful changes have been made in education, but seeing the differences in each student is also important. What are they interested in? How can we help each student become a better student?

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。

 There are several Chinese sayings that are similar to" how time flies". Ancient Chinese compared time to many things.

 One of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} ( popular) sayings is probably"光阴似箭, 日月如梭( Time flies by like an arrow; Days and {#blank#}2{#/blank#} ( month) flash by as fast as a weaver's shuttle.)" It is easy {#blank#}3{#/blank#}( understand) the" arrow" part. All of us know {#blank#}4{#/blank#} fast arrows are. What about a weaver's shuttle?

In ancient times, many Chinese people made a living by growing crops (庄稼) and weaving cloth(织布). Nearly every family {#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( have) a loom(织布机). A shuttle is a tool on the loom that moves {#blank#}6{#/blank#} ( quick) when someone is weaving. Since it was so often seen, ancient Chinese used it in this saying.

 Another popular Chinese saying {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the passing of time is"白驹过隙". It means that time flies by like a white horse running past a crack (缝隙) in a wall. The saying comes from {#blank#}8{#/blank#} book called Zhuangzi. In this book, it is said that Confucius came to Laozi to ask about the ultimate(终极的) truth of the universe. Laozi told Confucius that a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} ( person) life was as quick as"a white horse running past a crack". One's body would die, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} his or her spirit could live on forever.
