For the first time Venusian scientists managed to land a satellite on the planet Earth, and it has been sending back signals as well as photographs. The satellite was directed into an area known as Manhattan. Because of excellent weather conditions and extremely strong signals, Venusian scientists were able to get valuable information about the possibility of a manned flying saucer(飞碟) landing on Earth. A press conference was held at the Venus Institute of Technology. “We have come to the conclusion, based on last weeks satellite landing, ” Prof. Zog said, “that there is no life on Earth. ”“How do you know this? ” the science reporter of the Venus Evening News asked. “For one thing, Earths surface in the area of Manhattan is composed of solid concrete and nothing can grow there. For another, the atmosphere is filled with carbon monoxide and other deadly gases and nobody could possibly breathe this kind of air and survive. ”“Are there any other sources of danger that you have discovered in your studies? ”“Take a look at this photo. You see this dark black cloud staying over the surface of Earth? We dont know what it is made of, but it could give us a lot of trouble and we shall have to make further tests before we send a Venus Being there. ”“Over here you will notice what seems to be a river, but the satellite findings indicate it is polluted and the water is unfit to drink. ”“Sir, what are all those tiny black spots on the photographs? ”“Were not certain. They seem to be metal particles that move along certain paths. They give gases, make noise and keep crashing into each other. ”“Prof. Zog, why are we spending billions and billions of Zilches to land a flying saucer on Earth when there is no life there? ”“Because if we Venusians can learn to breathe in the Earth atmosphere, then we can live anywhere. ”1.

To Maggie, a first grader at Burgundy Farm Country Day School, the dog who spends most days on campus is more like a friend. When Cameron is near, Maggie feels “really, really, happy” , she said, “I feel safe around him, ” she added. “Hell lie down and ask me to scratch his tummy, ” she explained, because Cameron likes Maggie. Cameron is one of a handful of dogs at Burgundy, a K-8 private day school in Alexandria, Virginia. Dogs started showing up there when the head of school, Jeff Sindler, brought his clumsy Labrador, Luke, to the main office building where Sindler works. After Luke died, Sindler adopted Cameron and brought him to campus, too, where the dog Maggie described as really cute became a school favorite. “They dont care if you are good at basketball or a great reader, or popular, ” Sindler said. “They just want to be loved equal opportunity, ” he added. “Cameron and the other dogs on campusare always fastened with a rope and with their ownergo a long way toward improving students social and emotional well-being, ” he said. They reduce tension and ease anxiety, and inspire happy feelings from students. “They bring out some important emotions, ”he said, “and are especially helpful to children and adults who struggle in social communication. ”Children often came from challenging backgrounds: many lived in poverty, or had to travel through dangerous neighborhoods to get to school, or shared a too-crowded home. When these emotionally needy children met the dogs, they relaxed and were more prepared to learn. Just as important, dogs on school grounds set a positive, welcoming tone. They help preserve the school climate that is accepting, supportive and curious. “Dogs are one way to hold on to, ” Sindler said, adding that “schools should be fun and exciting, and dogs can be a big part of that. ”For Sindler, including Cameron was all part of an effort to create a safe environment where learning could flourish. 4. What makes the dog Cameron really special? A. His rare species. B. His particular birthmark. C. His attractive appearance. D. His friendly nature. 5. How do dogs on campus improve students social and emotional well-being? A. By playing fetch together fondly. B. By offering them comfort equally. C. By playing basketball together freely. D. By walking a long way together happily. 6. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. A positive tom. B. The school ground. C. A welcoming attitude. D. The school atmosphere. 四、阅读七选五There are five factors which contribute to the spread of fake news:political gains;misreporting;going viral(病毒式传播);financial gains;and “not letting the truth get in the way of a good story”.1When the Titanic disaster happened, telegrams informing that all the passengers from the Titanic had been rescued were reported as fact in newspapers, before the full extent of the tragedy came to light.2In the early 20th century it took years rather than seconds but the principle was the same. People shared the photographs around, not checking the accuracy of them.Its long been believed that the motto of Fleet Street was “never let the facts get in the way of a good story”, illustrated by a news story earlier in 2017 that Jeremy Corbyn had refused to bow his head to the Queen at the state opening of Parliament. Only later did it become known that protocol(礼节)doesnt require bowing to the Queen in these situations.3The final two factors for a story to be fake news often go hand in hand:as a political tool, and a must to make a profit.4Easier than youd think. The websites with fake news can easily get astonishing hits, which then attract advertisements and thus earn the website owners a nice profit.The good news is that a number of new media organizations are trying to encourage us to think about where news comes from, who puts it out, and whether anyone can gain politically, financially or ideologically by it, before we share it around social media.5A.How does that make money?B.How do people gain politically?C.But that didnt matter because the story was out.D.Here is a good example of misreporting.E.That was how a good story came into being.F.Going viral is another typical characteristic of fake news.G.Thus we can give it certain respectability and trustworthiness. 一、用方框内所给单词的适当形式填空1.interviewed2.employed3.approved4.informed5.polished二、单句填空1.of2.accurately3.development4.in5.polished6.approval7.are processed8.appointment三、阅读理解1.C。推理判断题。根据Zog教授的回答Because if we Venusians can learn to breathe in the Earth atmosphere, then we can live anywhere. (如果我们金星人能够在地球的大气层生存的话, 那么我们就能够在任何地方生存)。可知, 作者是用幽默的语气写此文的。2.D。推理判断题。根据倒数第三段They seem to be metal particles that move along certain paths. They give gases, make noise and keep crashing into each other. (它们似乎是金属颗粒, 沿着一定的轨道运动, 排放气体, 制造噪音, 互相撞击。), 即卫星上传送的汽车车流量的照片。故可推知, 作者还提到了繁重的交通问题。3.D。推理判断题。作者在文中提到了空气污染问题, 水污染问题以及交通繁重问题, 以提醒人们地球上存在的危机。4.D。推理判断题。由第一段中的“the dog who spends most days on campus is more like a friend. ”以及“ Hell lie down and ask me to scratch his tummy”可知, 这只狗在学校里待的时间最多, 他更像是一个朋友。他会躺下来让我挠他的肚子。所以通过关键词“like a friend, lie down, scratch his tummy”可推断出Cameron 具有友善的天性。5.B。细节理解题。根据题干的关键词social and emotional well-being可定位至第三段。由第三段可知, 狗狗们只是想要平等地得到学生的爱, 同时, 也通过给学生同样的安慰来提高学生的社交和情感方面的健康。6.D。词义猜测题。根据第五段前两句可知, 同样重要的是, 学校操场上的狗营造出一种积极的、友好的氛围, 它们有助于保持这种包容的、鼓励的和求知的学校氛围。也就是说, 狗狗也是营造该氛围很重要的一部分。故that指的是the school atmosphere. 四、阅读七选五1.D空格下文告诉我们当“泰坦尼克”号沉没的时候,新闻报道说所有乘客都获救了,这属于典型的虚假新闻,本段列举的是错误报道的例子,D项符合语境。2.F根据空格后内容可知,在20世纪早期虚假新闻的传播需要好几年,而现在只要几秒钟。虽然时间差别很大,但是这种病毒式传播虚假新闻的原理是一样的,F项符合语境。3.C空格上文列举了一个实例。实际上Jeremy Corbyn在国会开幕大典上并不需要向女王鞠躬,但他拒绝向女王鞠躬的新闻已经传播出去了,至于新闻是否是真实的并不重要。C项符合语境。4.A本段最后一句告诉我们虚假新闻登在网站上,会引来许多人点击这个新闻,从而吸引广告商在这个网站上投放广告,网站的所有者就可以挣钱了。该句解释了A项的问题。5.G本段告诉我们,好消息是很多新闻媒体鼓励人们在传播信息之前要仔细思考这个消息的来源以及谁能够从中获利等。这样做能够更好地确定新闻的真实性。G项指出,这样,我们可以给予其一定的尊重和信任,承接上文。第13页（共13页）
