We all know that Harry Potter9s last adventures hit the bookstore in 2007, and three years later the Warner Bros adaptations ran their course in cinema, too. For many fans, the young wizard had worked his magic through most of their childhood. But in 2018, a new Harry Potter extended universe film, Fantastic Beasts: The Crime of Grindelwald. was out.I love Harry Potter series and I always will. Ifs all there in my memory: I remember the first delight at reading "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four, Privet drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal”. The wizarding treasure hunt, thrown by my parents for my ninth birthday with my dad dressed as Hagrid in the garden, was so clear in my mind. I remember deciphering (破译)my copy of the Deathly Hallows, the first book I read in English, and having to check the French for "wand”. The 2001 trip to the cinema to see Philosopher s Stone, and all the ones that followed are kept clearly.However, someone needs to call a halt to the endless afterlife of Potter's fictional universe. It was enough in the seven books and eight films. We didn't and don't need a community website, a theatre play, the printed script of said movie, and even more movies.Rowling has created 21st-century modern literary classic. I always look up to her as the textbook classy writer: respectfully drawing attention from readers, successful but wise enough to withdraw. She also cares much about the causes she holds dear. In 2011 alone, she donated 16% of her net worth to charities. Of all contemporary authors who hit gold, Rowling remains one of the very most inspirational.The saddest thing is that Rowling helped with the writing of the Cursed Child. She regularly "revealed” new details about Potter's magical world on Twitter. Today, I decided to give up: I don't follow Rowling on Twitter. I don't want to see the new film. Thank you, Joanne Kathleen Rowling. I have enough valued stories一I don't need new ones any more.4 . The last book of Harry Potter series was published in.A. 2007B, 2010C. 2011D. 2017.

Engineers cannot find a safe way to repair it after two cables supporting the structure suddenly and catastrophically broke, one in August and one in early November.The Arecibo telescope, which was built in 1963, was the world's largest radio telescope for decades and has historical and modern importance in astronomy. It was the site from which astronomers sent an interstellar radio message in 1974, in case any extraterrestrial might hear it, and where the first known extrasolar planet was discovered, in 1992. It has also done groundbreaking work in detecting near-Earth planets, observing the puzzling celestial blasts known as fast radio bursts, and studying many other phenomena.The cables that broke helped support a 900-tonne platform of scientific instruments, which hangs above the main telescope dish. The first cable broke panels at the edge of the dish, but the second tore huge gashes in a central portion of it. If any more cables fail-which could happen at any time-the entire platform could crash into the dish below. The US National Science Foundation(NSF), which owns the Arecibo Observatory, is working on plans to safely lower the platform down in a controlled fashion.NSFs officials insist that the cable failures came as a surprise. After the first, engineering teams spotted a handful of broken wires on the second cable, which was more crucial to holding up the structure, but they did not see it as a major problem because the weight it was carrying was well within its design capacity.Some of the observatory's scientific projects may be able to be transferred to other facilities, said Ralph Gaume, the NSF's head of astronomy. And he expects scientists to suggest where to shift their research. Science does continue at other portions of the Arecibo Observatory, which includes more than the 305-metre-dish. They include two lidar facilities that shoot lasers into the atmosphere to study atmospheric phenomena.12. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The history of building the telescope. B. The key role of the telescope in astronomy.C. The benefit of learning astronomical events. D. The process of locating near-Earth planets. 13. According to Paragraph 3, we know that.A. NSF's officials tried to repair the platformthe second cable failure destroyed the platformB. the scientific instruments broke down due to the cablesthe platform would not break down if no more cables should fail14. Why were NSF's officials careless about the broken wires on the second cable?A. The cable was not very old.B , The wires were specially designed.C. The weight the cable bore did not go beyond its limit.D. The cable was not as important as the first one.15. What will happen to the ongoing scientific projects at the observatory?A. All of them will be shut down.B. Some of them will be moved to other facilities.C. They will be distributed to different scientists. D. Some of them will be put off.12.12022届吉林省东北师范大学附属中学高三五模】Researchers at MIT and in China developed a simple, solar-powered water desalination (月兑盐)system. They have made a breakthrough in getting fresh drinking water from sea water by using sunlight.As the research paper published in Energy & Environmental Science explains, equipment applied in this system includes several layers of flat evaporators (蒸发器)that turn water sources into fresh water through solar energy, as well as condensers (冷凝器)that cool the gas into the liquid. The authors of the paper are MIT studentsLenan Zhang and Lin Zhao, Professor Evelyn Wang, and nine other researchers at MIT and at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China.How the system uses each of the multiple stages to remove salt from the water is critical to its efficiency. The heat released per stage will be used by the next stage. In this way, the team's device can convert (转换)the energy of sunlight into the energy of water evaporation with an efficiency of 385 percent.The device can be considered as a multilayer solar still. The heat is absorbed by its flat panels and then transferred to make water evaporate. The vapor then cools down and turns into liquid water on the next panel. As the water is collected, the released heat is transferred to the next layer.The team's 10-stage system produces pure water. Its quality is above the city drinking water standards. It also has the highest yield compared to other similar systems, at a rate of nearly six cubic decimeter per hour for every square meter of the solar collecting area. The system is distinguished from some others by the fact that there is no accumulated salt to be got rid of. Most materials of the demonstration unit don't cost much and are easy to get.Further experiments will be carried out on the device to optimize (优化)the choices of materials and test its durability under realistic conditions. Researchers will also work on the design of the device to make it more consumer-friendly. It is expected that the system could finally help developing regions that are short of electricity supplies but rich in sea water and sunlight handle water crises.12. What contributes most to the high efficiency of the device?B The choice of materials.D. The simplicity of the structure.B , How solar energy is collected.D. What makes the device.A. The recycling of released heat.C. The use of multilayer equipment.13. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?A. What the device is for.C. How the device works.14. What makes the device different from other systems?A.The quality of water it produces.B.Its zero accumulation of salt.C.Its stable and high production level.D.The low cost of its condensers.15. Why will researchers carry out further experiments on the device?A.To make it suitable for use by consumers. B.To make it environment-friendly.C.To check its performance in labs.D.To reduce its cost.13.【2022届山东省枣庄市高考二模】Space tourism is the term used to describe space travel for recreational or leisure purposes. What was once only a dream, as described in A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke, is now becoming a reality.Futurologists attempt to make predictions of what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. They also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet-but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are possible in the years to come.Space Adventures is currently the only company to have succeeded in sending paying passengers into space. It worked with the Federal Space Agency of Russia and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to provide flightsfor the world's first private space explorers. Each paid over $20 million fbr their 10-day trip to the International Space Station.Following successful explorations into space, other companies are now considering the possibility of enabling tourists to visit space. To make it affordable, suborbital space travel is being considered by some companies, like Virgin Galactic. Passengers would be transported to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3-6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars before back to earth. This is expected to cost around $200, 000 per person.Whilst it could be an enriching experience, there are some disadvantages. Many critics say that a huge growth in the spaceflight industry could drastically speed up the process of global warming. The ozone layer would be damaged further and the polar regions would suffer. In addition, space travel is only really affordable for the super-rich, though Virgin Galactic claims to be "opening space to the rest of us8. What do you know about space tourism?A. It is nothing but a dream.C. It's a sightseeing tour in space.9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The future life on the moon.C. Predictions about trips to the moon.B. It's only in some fairy tales.D. It's a scientific expedition.B. Landing on the moon in 1969.D. The history of the moon exploration.10. Why is suborbital space travel considered possible?A. It's cheaper. B. It safer.C. It's greener. D. It's convenient.11. What is some critics9 major concern about space tourism?A. Its safety.B. Environmental effect.C. Social equality.D.

German, British, and French soldiers already sick and tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and fraternized (打得火热)with “the enemy, along two-thirds of the Western Front. German troops held Christmas trees up out of the trenches (战壕)withsigns, “Merry Christmas.,5“You no shoot, we no shoot." Thousands of troops streamed across a no-man's land filled with dead bodies. They sang Christmas carols, exchanged photographs of loved ones back home, shared rations, played football, and even roasted some pigs. Soldiers embraced (拥抱)men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if the Generals (将军)forced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high.It shocked the high command on either side. Here was disaster in the making: soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight. Generals on both sides declared this peacemaking to be wrong. Fifteen million would be killed.Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce. On Christmas Day, 1988, a story in the Boston Globe mentioned that a local FM radio host played "Christmas in the Trenches“ several times and was surprised by the effect. The song became the most requested recording during the holidays in Boston on several FM stations. “Some callers even telephone the host deeply moved, sometimes in tears, asking, "What the hell did
