When you think about it, food is an important part of our lives. Family gatherings center around food and the celebration of major life events and milestones involves food in one way or another. The same holds true for us here on the Space Station. Food is important and ends up usually being a topic of discussion for almost every crew.
The food that we have here on ISS has to meet many different requirements. What about variety? How do you meet all of the peculiarities of the people that you come across, especially when they are from different cultures? What about the logistics( 物流)of getting the right food here at the right time? So there are a couple of different questions you have to consider when you talk about food and long-duration space flight.
On the U.S. side we have gone to a standard menu, meaning that every 16 days you start over with the same menu. To compensate the crews，we are allowed to pick one“preference”container which consists of our pick of anything on the U. S. menu list.This allows us some variety in our menu, with the choices up to us. One of the desirable options for any crew is to make sure that enough tortillas(墨 西哥玉米粉薄饼) get on board. You can do so much with a tortilla; it becomes the vehicle with which to eat almost anything.
Our food also comes packaged in many ways. But no matter what the form of the food though, you still have the same problem eating it- - you do not want it flying away from you and making a mess when you open it up. In this case a little bit of extra water is extremely helpful. It keeps the food kind of sticking together and to the package and to your spoon. Small things do escape from time to time, but we really try hard to minimize the random flying food problem. That is enough for now! Next time I will write about how to cook in space.
24. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A. A food magazine. B. An astronaut's journal.
C. A sci-fi handbook. D. A space history website.
25. What does the underlined word “peculiarities" mean in paragraph 2?
A. Ambitious targets. B. Similar requests.
C. Unusual habits. D. Harsh conditions.
26. What is the author' s purpose in mentioning tortillas?
A. To illustrate the preference container . B. To give an example of standard menu.
C. To advocate tortillas to the readers. D. To show the variety of food options.
27. What can be inferred about eating in space?
A. Food packaging is optional. B. Sufficient water helps transport food.
C. Flying food problem is unavoidable. D. Eating in space is easier than most imagine.

During the past several years, fake news has been a frequent topic of real news, with articles considering the role of social media in spreading fake news. Something less well-known, though, is that fake news has also become a topic of scientific investigation.
In a paper published in March in the journal Science, David Lazer, Matthew Baum and 14 co-authors consider what we do and don't know about the science of fake news.They define fake news as“made-up information that imitates news in form but not in process or intention”.
The paper makes a persuasive case that the investigation of fake news is timely and important. One conservative( 保守的) estimate is that in the month before the 2016 election，the average American was exposed to somewhere between one and three articles from a known publisher of fake news. Another alarming result is that when it comes to political topics, tweets containing false information spread more rapidly and broadly on Twitter than those containing reliable information.
Researchers mentioned in the paper that in the face of fake news and its spreading by social and other forms of media,“A new system of safeguards is needed. ”But what kinds of safeguards can individual news consumers put into place? The simplistic answer is“be more reflective". Don' t believe everything you read, but consider the possibility that it's false. We need to foster standards of discussion in which it's OK to challenge what others say without the conversation immediately turning into abuse. The most effective lab meetings are like that: If someone disagrees with the presenter, they say so in a polite way. And by doing so, they might be saving the presenter from embarrassment in a more public forum. A community that encourages individuals to point out when statements are false or unclear benefits everybody by helping detect the truth.
In the long run, the truth will win out. Our preferred society encourages the truth to win out before great damage is done.
28. What can we infer from the third paragraph?
A. The investigation proved fake news is persuasive.
B. The spread of fake news has become an alarming issue.
C. The use of social media might help fake news to spread.
D. Fake news on political topics received more attention.
29. What safeguard is suggested to individuals according to the passage?
A. Reflecting on what you read. B. Neglecting the false information.
C. Challenging what others say. D. Helping others detect the truth.
30. What is the author's attitude to the future of news?
A. Skeptical. B. Unclear. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Do Not Believe in Everything B. The Truth Will Finally Win Out
C. The Truth About Fake News D. The Spreading of Fake News
D
As students return to school this fall, many of them- perhaps especially those from historically disadvantaged student groups- will be starting the academic year with achievement levels lower than where they were at the beginning of summer break. This phenomenon is sometimes referred to as summer learning loss. We review what is known about summer loss and offer suggestions for schools looking to solve the problem.
The recent studies on summer loss have been rather comprehensive. One study found that students, on average, lost between 25 - 30 percent of their school-year learning over the summer; additionally, black and Latino students tended to gain less over the school year and lose more over the summer compared to white students.
However, an analysis of the national study found little evidence of overall loss over the summers after grades K and 1，and the summer loss gaps widened in some subjects and grades but not others. Von Hippel and Hamrock re-analyzed two earlier data sets and concluded that gaps“do not necessarily ... grow fastest over the summer”. Thus, it seems summer loss occurs， though not universally across geography， grade level， or subject.
Schools want to address the issue of summer learning loss not only because it may widen achievement gaps, but also because it“wastes”so much of the knowledge students have gained during the school year. Summer loss also undoubtedly increases the amount of time teachers have to spend“re-teaching”last year s content.
Traditionally，educators and policymakers have relied on conventional summer school programs to solve summer learning loss. Not surprisingly， research suggests that programs are more effective when students attend consistently and spend more time on task academically. Regardless of the design, these policies should offer engaging options for students over the summer so that summer learning programs do not feel like punishment for students who would rather be enjoying summer vacation. Doing so would set more students up for success as the school year gets underway.
32. In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to .
A. propose a definition B. make a comparison
C. present an issue D. make an argument
33. According to the studies, what do we know about summer learning loss?
A. Summer learning loss seemed to vary in grades and subjects.
B. Immigrant students experienced the most summer loss.
C. White students did not lose learning over the summer.
D. Summer learning loss after grades K and 1 was alarming.
34. According to the fourth paragraph， schools want to solve the problem because .
A. it may narrow achievement gaps B. it may stop students gaining more knowledge
C. it may increase teachers' new teaching content D. it may cause repetitive work for teachers
35. What does the author think of summer school programs?
A. The conventional programs are ineffective. B. More choices should be provided for students.
C. Students should do more academic tasks. D. The programs are punishment for students.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As a nurse at the cancer care center where I've worked for seven years，Ill d almost anything to make a patient feel better. But when I met Patty at the center, in 2011, she didn't want my help.
She was a tiny 44-year-old single mom battling an aggressive head and neck cancer.Unlike many of our other patients, Patty was alone during her treatment, but no matte what I did, I couldn't get her to open up. She just buried herself in a book or pulled blanket over her head to fend off conversation.
Eventually I hit on a reliable way to make Patty smile: mentioning her nine-year-old son, Stephen. She'd tell me how well he did in school, how he'd been selected to read poem he wrote at a local bookstore. She desperately wanted to live for him. With three kids myself, I totally understood how she felt.
After a year and a half of treatment, in August 2012, Patty was told her cancer had spread, and I learned she wouldn't live much longer. My first thought was，“What’s going to happen to Stephen?" Nurses at the center shared stories at their meetings about how bright and unusual the boy was, but no one seemed to know how to resolve the issue of what would happen to him when his mom died. My husband, Michael, who too works at the center, started hearing about Patty and Stephen.
One morning in October, Patty quietly slipped away. Michael and I picked Stephen up after school, drove him to a nearby park， and sat on a bench by a pond. I finally managed to say，“Stephen, we' re sorry to have to tell you this, but your mom came to an end this morning.”The sound that came out of his mouth was like nothing I'd ever heard before. This skinny little guy sat between the two of us and just wailed(哀 号) and wailed. It was as if his whole world was just destroyed.

1.续写词数应为150左右;
