The 5,000 medals Japan has made are more special than most.One novel focus of the Tokyo Olympics is to be“sustainable”to avoid using too many natural resources, so that the games are easy on the environment. As part of this goal, the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metal recycled from old electronics.Almost all electronics are made with small amounts of "precious metals", like gold and silver. But collecting enough of these metals to make 5,000 medals was a huge challenge. That's because the amount of metal in each device is tiny. It would take about 20,000 cell phones to get just 1 kilogram of gold.Beginning in April 2017, the organizers placed collection boxes around the country, and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices. Soon people began to respond to the initiative, turning in smartphones, digital cameras, hand-held games, and laptops. At first, collection went slowly, but soon more and more areas began to take part. By the end, 1,621 local governments had helped out with the collection process.Then came the job of breaking those devices down into smaller pieces. After being taken apart and sorted, the small electronics were smelted (熔炼) to get all the gold, silver, and bronze elements. This is a tricky job,which calls for careful attention and good skill It's also dangerous, because some of the metals and other things aren't safe for people to touch or breathe.By the end of March, 2019, the organizers had hit their targets of getting enough metal for the medals. They had collected around3xkilograms of gold, 4,100 kilograms of silver and 2,200 kilograms of bronze. And now all the 5,000 medals are available for the would-be winners.4.

To call people's attention to environmental damage.(3)The sun is going to expand into the orbit of Mercury according to scientific calculations, which will result in the entire Earth catching on fire. Who will save the world?This imaginative tale is at the heart of the latest Chinese sci-fi movie The Wandering Earth. Unlike many American space-themed films where the solution to a disaster Earth faces is always fleeing (逃离) the planet in spaceships, this time were taking the Earth with us. The film, which has made it the country's most successful film of all time, has offered a different and more ambitious idea.The “ambition” didnt come from nowhere. For thousands of years, “homeland” has had a soft spot in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old idiom that shows a strong feeling that Chinese people have had for their homeland is “luoyeguigen”, which means returning to ones homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree.“What is Chinese sci-fi?” Guo Fan, the films director, said in an interview. “A vehicle that really expresses our cultural and spiritual core ( 核 心 ) can be called Chinese sci-fi. Otherwise, were just following others and telling the same Hollywood stories.”And the makers of The Wandering Earth may have chosen the best time to tell its Chinese sci-fi story. The film was released on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard 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.8. The main purpose of the opening paragraph is to .A. give a brief account of the filmB. warn people of the coming threatC. explore ways to avoid the disasterD. introduce the topic of the passage9. The underlined phrase “a different and more ambitious idea” refers to .A. fleeing the Earth in spaceshipsB. bringing in huge successC. filling the gap in Chinese sci-fi moviesD. helping Earth make its escape10 Which of the following is unlikely to account for the success of the film?A. The rich imagination of the story.B. Hollywood-style space stories.C. The special cultural background.D. The time chosen to release the film.11. What is likely to be title for the passage?A. Chinese Sci-fi Catches UpB. The Most Successful Chinese Sci-fiC. Chinese Sci-fi Sets a New PathD. Chinese Sci-fi Challenges Hollywood(4)Today, China has conducted its first 3D printing experiment in space in a newly launched spacecraft, which was put into low-Earth orbit by China's Long March 5B heavy lift carrier rocket.Video broadcast on CCTV showed that the printer has printed a flat section of a honeycomb-shaped (蜂巢状)structure as well as a symbol of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp, the parent company of the China Academy of Space Technology. The experiment was done by a 3D printer, developed and built by its Beijing Spacecrafts Manufacturing Factory, inside the prototype of China's new generation manned spacecraft.The printer, named the Space-Based Composite Material 3D Printing System, uses carbon fiber-reinforced materials to autonomously print objects. It is installed in the reentry module of the experimental spaceship, and will be brought back to Earth once the module returns.The printer features advanced technologies in material modeling, precision control and automation. Once the space-based 3D printing technology becomes operationally ready, it can extensively benefit space programs as astronauts can use it to manufacture a lot of things they currently now need to obtain from resupply flights by cargo spacecraft.Wang Yanan, editor-in-chief of the Aerospace Knowledge magazine, said the 3D Printer will be very useful in extended space missions, such as those in a space station, because it will allow astronauts to make components quickly and conveniently in space. The technology will save future space journeys considerable resources and costs.In fact, the device is not the only representative of 3D printing on board the Prototype.A CubeSat deployer, designed and made through 3D printing by CoSats Space Technology, is also carried by the spacecraft to check the adaptability of 3D-printed equipment in space. CoSats Chief Operating Officer Bai Ruixue said the 3D-Printed deployer is much lighter and stronger than its counterparts and it will have huge potential in the space industry.12. What did the video broadcast on CCTV show to the audience?A. The process and the products of the 3D printing.B. The name and the shape of the 3D printer.C. The significance of the 3D printing technology.D. The relationship between the two companies.13. What if a component is broken in the space station now?A. It has to be sent by spaceship back to earth for repair.B. The astronauts can fix it conveniently by hand on the spot.C. The astronauts make one using 3D printing and replace it.D. It has to be unloaded and abandoned in space.14. Why is the last paragraph mentioned?A. To introduce the CubeSat deployer produced in space.B. To explain the advantages of the 3D printing in space.C. To show the adaptability of 3D printing in space.D. To indicate a bright future of 3D printing in space.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. 3D printing experiment conducted in space.B. 3D printing set to help ease space trips.C. 3D printing launched by Long March 5B.D. 3D printinga new way to explore space.Part BIs Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” _16_ According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good._17_ If the air youre breathing is cleanwhich it would be if youre away from the smog of citiesthen the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). _18_ In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. _19_ It gives us a great feeling of peace._20_While the suns rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D . To make sure you get enough Vitamin Dbut still protect your skinput on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and thats plenty of time for your skin to absorb a days worth of Vitamin D .A. Fresh air cleans our lungs.B. So what are you waiting for?C. Being in nature refreshes us.D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?F.
