第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）
第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）
阅读下列短文，从每題所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Some of the world's most important scientists think the idea of people living on Mars will come true one day. Stephen Hawking believed humans must move into space to survive. “Once we spread out into space and establish independent colonies, our future should be safe,” he said.
However, scientists will need to terraform Mars for people to be able to live. One of the main goals of terraforming Mars is to warm it up because the average temperature there is about -60 One idea for wanning Mars is to build factories there that produce greenhouse gases. This could take many centuries. However, it should lead to rainfall and the growth of plants, resulting in more air that people can breathe.
Another big concern for scientists is whether humans can move to Mars and still stay healthy in mind and body. As a test, six people lived in a Mars-like environment in Hawaii for a year before “returning to Earth” recently. It was a 1,200-square-foot room that was on the side of a volcano and used the sun for energy. Christiane Heinicke, one of the people who lived there, said that one of the biggest issues was feeling bored. So humans on Mars would always need to keep themselves busy with various activities. Another important finding was that the people living together should all be able to get along and work together.
One particular organization based in Europe is planning to send the first humans to Mars before 2030. The organization believes that its project is giving people worldwide the chance to be part of the first human crew ever to live on Mars for good. However, many experts think the project’s cost of US$6 billion is too low for it to be successful. The American space agency NASA believes that sending people to Mars would cost about US $100 billion, although this estimate is based on bringing them back to Earth, too. Regardless, it seems that humans living on Mars may well happen a lot sooner than most people believe.
21. What's Stephen Hawking’s opinion about settling on Mars?
A. It makes sense to live on Mars.
B. There is no need to spread out into space.
C. Moving into space is a dream impossible to fulfill.
D. Our future will not be secure unless independent kingdoms are built.
22. What does the underlined word ‘'terraform” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Warm up Mars.
B. Make Mars more like Garth.
C. Build more factories on Mars.
D. Accelerate the growth of plants on Mars.
23. What does the author think about nr«*iving to Mars?
A. Living on Mars is bori but good.
B. It is too costly to send humans to Mars.
C. Humans' health will be greatly affected.
D. Moving to Mars is expected in the near future.
24. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. Safe on Mars? B. Boring on Mars?
C. Homes on Mars? D. Challenges on Mars?
B
Most people recognize the music John Williams wrote for the film Jaws. As soon as you hear it, you begin thinking that a shark will attack. And that is exactly what you are meant to think. On the big screen, Jaws is a scary film. However, if you watch it without the music, it becomes boring. The music tells you to be frightened about what you are seeing. Good film scores always signal how to feel about what is happening on the screen.
No one can talk about film scores without talking about Hans Zimmer. He did the music for many films, such as The Dark Knight and The Lion King. Zimmer and Williams have very different styles and ideas for film scores. There are people who do not like Williams, scores for the Harry Potter films because they stand out too much, while some people do not like Zimmer's scores because they sometimes do not stand out enough. Of course, in many ways, that is not the point When you leave a film, you should not be saying, “Wow! Great music!”, Instead, you should be saying, “Wow! Great film!”
A third, very different kind of film composer is Tan Dun, who has a classical music background, unlike many film composers. Tan started out as a musician for the Peking Opera. However, he fell in love witii Western classical music, and started writing classical Western operas that show a strong touch of Chinese music. Like his operas, the scores for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Hero use Chinese musical instruments and styles in a Western classical music score.
The music follows all of the rules of most film scores — the purpose is to tell you how to feel about the action in the film, and to help tell the story. However, perhaps because of Tan's background in classical music, his scores can stand alone as works of art without needing a film to support them.
Film scores are almost always a form of classical music. However, unlike most classical music, they have never been considered high art. Perhaps with Tan Dun, this will begin to change.
25. According to the passage, music scores can _______________.
A. signal a great film
B. make the film frightening
C. attract more people to see the film
D. inspire the audience's emotional response to movie scenes
26. Why are John Williams and Hans Zimmer mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A. To show the differences in their styles.
B. To explain the role of musical scores in films.
C. To advertise the films with their musical scores.
D. To inform the readers of their achievements in film scores.
27. What can be learned about Tan Dun?
A. He has made musical scores a form of high art
B. His music breaks all of the rules of most film scores.
C. His musical scores feature a combination of Chinese and western music.
D. He got well-known for his scores for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

My fellow Americans, earlier this year I announced my candidacy for president of our house, 347 Elm Street. My goal was simple: unseat my wife~Mommy, who I believed had grown careless in how she handled the affairs of our home.
My qualifications to take this house-hold of three in the right direction were evident. I was and remain the only one in the family who can open pickle jars. I was and remain the only one who can remember the Amazon Prime password. I was and remain the only one who doesn't scream when he sees small bugs. I was and remain the Best Dad~see my coffee cup.
It was a close contest where I pressed my opponent on the hottest topics of the day. On the issue of transportation, I questioned my rival's refusal to make left-hand turns. And on health care, I fought the lonely battle against buying a dog, reminding everyone, “I'm allergic!"
But tonight, the votes have been cast, the people of this great house have spoken, and I respect their decision. And while I take great pride in how close the election was—two votes to one—it is clear that I will not be your next president As contentious (有争议的）as this campaign has been，it is now time to unite our home around the winner. I call for all my supporters, namely myself, to fall in line to ensure a smooth transition from the previous Mommy administration to the next Mommy administration, which will mark her 21st term in office. Although I will not be serving as your president and commander-in-chief, I will continue to fight for the things that my campaign stood for.
Now, as I prepare to end my campaign and take our new dog for a walk, I thank each and every voter, no matter whom you recklessly voted for. And may God bless 347 Elm Street.
28. What was the author's purpose of participating in the election earlier this year?
A. To take the place of his wife.
B. To run for President of America.
C. To solve their household problems.
D. To help his wife to be more careful.
29. How did the author feel after the result of the election was known?
A.. Agreeable and optimistic. B. Angry and disappointed.
C. Delighted and satisfied. D. Desperate and helpless.
30. What can be inferred about the author from the passage?
A. It was an unfair campaign.
B. His family was united and harmonious.
C. He took an absolute advantage over his wife in the election.
D. Compared to his wife, he could always drive in the right direction.

Humans have little difficulty recognizing one another. Each human face is truly unique, which makes seeing someone's face a great way to confirm their identity. And now we've invented machines that are able to recognize faces, which they are doing daily for countless purposes at lightning speed.
Governments, financial institutions employers, border security and police services are increasingly using facial recognition technology. ___31___ Systems are becoming so competent that a wanted criminal can instantly be picked out of a crowd of thousands of people. All that’s required is an image in a database to compare with the image of any number of people in a crowd.
Ordinary people, too, are using facial recognition to unlock their phones, their computers and other devices. ___32___ According to Apple, for example, there is only one chance in a million that a face other than your own could unlock your phone.

Is there a downside to the rapid spread of facial recognition: concerns about the use of facial recognition. ___34___ The installation of more and more cameras is now a part of everyday life. This means people can be observed and recognized wherever they go. Cameras on every lamppost may make public spaces safer, but keeping law-abiding citizens under constant watch is disturbing to many.
In the age of the corona-virus and the widespread wearing of masks, facial recognition
systems are having some difficulty. A mask covers many of the facial data points used by recognition software to confirm a person’s identity. ___35___ That could affect how dependable is as a method of identity detection and authentication.
