World B.The Person Nearest YouC.The Christmas Spirit D.A Twenty-Dollar Billc第4页，共24页Like a phoenix（凤凰）,some stars may burst to life covered in“ash,rising from the remainsof stars that had previously passed on.Two fireballs covered in carbon and oxygen,ashy byproducts of helium fusion（氮聚变）,belong to a new class of stars,researchers report in the March Monthly Notices.Though theseburning objects are not the first stars found covered in carbon and oxygen,they are the firstdiscovered to have helium-burning cores.That merger（并合）tells you the star must have evolved differently,1 says study author NicoleReindl.The stars may have formed from the merger of two white dwarfs（白矮星）,the remaininghearts of stars that exhausted their fuel,Reindl further explains.One of the two was rich inhelium,while the other contained lots of carbon and oxygen.These two white dwarfs hadalready been orbiting one another,but gradually drew together.Eventually the helium-richwhite dwarf uate its partner,leaving carbon and oxygen all over its surface,just as a messychild might get food all over their face.Such a merger would have produced a star covered in carbon and oxygen to burn nuclear fusionin its core again,says Tiara Battich,a German astrophysicist.To test this idea,Battich copied the evolution,death and eventual merger of two stars on hiscomputer and simulated（模拟）the process.He found that putting together acarbon-and-oxygen-rich white dwarf and a more massive helium one could explain thecompositions of the two stars observed by Reindl and her colleagues.But this should happen very rarely,Battich says.In most cases should occur,becausecarbon-oxygen white dwarfs are usually the more massive ones.For the rarer case to occur,twostars slightly more massive than the sun must have formed at just the right distance and theright time.The origins story Battich proposes demands a very specific and unusual set ofcircumstances,says Simon Blouin,a Canadian astrophysicist.But in the end,it makes sense.8.Whats the newest discovery of the merger of two stars?A.It produces a mass of helium ash.B.It possesses a helium-burning core.C.It is covered in carbon and oxygen.D.It makes an oxygen atmosphere for life.9.How did Battich prove his assumption of the merger?A.By co-working with Reindls team.B.By making astronomic observations.C.By building models on his computer.D.By testing the two stars compositions.10.The underlined phrase the opposite me a n s.A.the carbon-oxygen white dwarf ate the helium oneB.the helium white dwarf Hateu the carbon-oxygen oneC.helium white dwarfs are usually the more massive onesD.carbon-oxygen white dwarfs are usually the more massive ones11.Whats the main idea of the text?A.The formation of stars makes sense.B.The burning of stars brings them to life.C.Stars inspire scientists to reflect on the universe.D.Star mergers can unfold in more than one way.DIt is lunchtime.At a long table inside a restaurant,some young people sit together overlunch.There is less conversation than you might expect from a typical group of friends：a boyseems to talk only to himself,and a girl looks anxious.These young people met through a program organized by the nonprofit Actionplay,whereyoung people with autism work together to write and stage a musical.Each Sunday,they workand have lunch together.You meet other people just like you,1 says Lexi Spindel.That wasthe first time my daughter had a friend,says Lexis father.That never happened beforeActionplay.For decades,scientists have supposed people with autism dont have or need friends.A newresearch is forcing a rethink of those long-held beliefs.Autistic people report they wantfriends.One significant barrier to friendships is common peoples opinion that autistic peopleare not interested in connecting with them.Appearing uninterested,however,is not always thesame as being uninterested.An autistic child looking uninterested in games may in fact beovercome by the noise.And behaviors like clapping hands repeatedly are a way to manage theiranxiety and uncertainty,not a sign of their low social interest.For some autistic people,friendships develop through experimental programs.In a programLerner developed,participants play a game called Gibberish.where teenagers must interpret第6页，共24页each others intentions without using real language.The point is not to get it right,but to attendto what the other person is doing in a way that creates opportunities to connect.Lerners ideas were inspired by a moment 16 years ago after he established a small camp fbrchildren with autism called Spotlight.On the second day an 11-year-old boy ran up and pulledhis clothes.nLerne,Lerner,where did you find these kids?”All over the place/Lerner answered.uEveryone wants to come to campjust like you.”n the boy said.12.The scene in paragraph 1 is described to.A.reveal the lack,of an interpersonal conversationB.prove the difficulty in reducing teenage anxietyC.stress the great necessity of forming friendshipsD.show the different behavior of a particular group13.What is Actionplay aimed at?A.Curing young people of autism.B.Developing autistic peoples taste in art.C.Offering autistic people a social platform.D.Improving young peoples family relationship.14.What can we infer from paragraph 3?A.Autistic people have no intention to make friends.B.Noise sets barriers to autistic peoples views on games.C.Repetitive movements make autistic people feel secure.D.Common beliefs cause autistic peoples low social interest.15.What does the underlined sentence imply?A.He feels at ease with his autistic fellows.B.He no longer regards himself as an autistic kid.C.Lerners guidance helps him get out of autism.D.Autistic kids dont long to socialize with normal ones.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5 小题，共 12.5分)My Grandma is 95 years old and still lives independently and happily at home.She has lookedafter her body her whole life,never drank or smoked a day in her life.(1)She
