For years, people have wondered whether there’s life on other planets. Scientists may now be closer than ever to answering that question.
Using powerful telescopes, a team of astronomers in South America discovered a new planet, called Proxima b. It circles a star named Proxima Centauri, in the same way Earth circles the sun. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our solar system.
Scientists believe the new planet has a rocky surface and is similar in size to Earth. More importantly, they’ve determined that the distance between Proxima b and its “sun” gives the planet a similar temperature to Earth’s. This means it could have liquid water. The presence of water on a planet makes it possible for life to exist there. Scientists refer to planets like Proxima b as “Goldilocks planets” because they are not too hot or too cold, but just right to possibly support life.
Astronomers have found other Goldilocks planets in the past, but none are as close to Earth as Proxima b. Still, the new planet is 4.2 light years from Earth—that is about 25 trillion miles away.
Despite the long distance, astronomers hope to get a much better look at our new-found neighbor one day. But they’ll need to wait until more advanced telescopes are developed. They may also send a robotic spacecraft to investigate the planet.
4. Earth is to the sun what ______.
A. the solar system is to Proxima b
B. Proxima Centauri is to Proxima b
C. Proxima b is to the solar system
D. Proxima b is to Proxima Centauri
5. The writer introduces the new planet mainly by ______.
A. listing figures B. following the space order
C. making the comparisons D. giving examples
6. Planets like Proxima b are referred to as “Goldilocks planets” because of ______.
A. the presence of water B. their temperature
C. the life on them D. their size
7. We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.
A. astronomers have a long way to go to explore the new planet
B. exploring the new planet is just around the corner
C. the long distance will prevent astronomers from exploring the new planet
D. astronomers have got the whole picture of the new planet

A short cooking video posted by a netizen on TikTok has recently become a popular hit on the site. Bearing the tag “Chinese food”, the video not only showed off the chief’s superb skills in making Chinese dishes, but it also got netizens abroad wanting to get a taste of China’s unique food culture.
Although the video was nothing master-level, just a rather standard homemade fried potato dish, it received more than 200, 000 likes after only three days of posting. In addition to praising the chef, commenters wondered why such a simple Chinese dish could look like a fancy cuisine that had been made through tons of effort. “Even the most basic Chinese dish needs to have three elements: color, smell and taste. For example, color not only requires a chef to have sharp eyes, but also valuable experience,” said Wang, an experienced Chinese chef in Guangzhou.
Chinese cooking is not the only type of content covered by the tag. Other popular videos under the tag include “odd food” challenges, traditional Chinese dishes and Chinese snack tasting, the latter of which has become particularly popular among young omnivore vloggers (video bloggers) living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization.
“I have been a fan of Chinese food ever since my Chinese friend cooked me di san xian at university. I was surprised by the dish’s taste and its look, which was very different from my home food, but felt it was very familiar to me because I noticed we share similar cooking skills,” said Bianca, an Italian Asian food fan.
“I started my channel by recording my roommate tasting my cooking. These videos got likes and comments gradually. Seeing some people commenting in German or English and saying ‘I want to try it’, I felt these videos can narrow the gap between the two cultures,” said Mr. Bear, a vlogger on Bilibili who promotes Chinese cooking.
12. What does the underlined word “omnivore” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. people eating meat. B. people eating diverse food.
C. people eating strange food. D. people eating vegetables.
13. How does Bianca find Chinese food?
A. common and dear. B. expensive and delicious.
C. similar and disconnected. D. special and familiar.
14. What do we know about Mr. Bear from the last paragraph?
A. He is an expert determined to become a Chinese chef.
B. The majority of his fans tasted the food he cooked.
C. His videos make a difference to cultural communication.
D. His roommate encouraged him to cook Chinese food.
15. The passage mainly tells us that_________.
A. Chinese cooking has become popular among young vloggers.
B. advanced technology plays a great part in modern society.
C. online videos can make young people internationally famous.
D. master-level Chinese dishes are attracting more foreign fans.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“I was surprised by the dish’s taste and its look, which was very different from my home food, but felt it was very familiar to me because I noticed we share similar cooking skills,” said Bianca, an Italian Asian food fan.(意大利亚洲美食迷Bianca说：“我对这道菜的味道和外观感到惊讶，这道菜与我家的菜大不相同，但我觉得这道菜很熟悉，因为我注意到我们有着相似的烹饪技巧。”)”可知，Bianca认为中国的地三鲜与他家的菜大不相同，但又觉得很熟悉，因为这和他们家乡的菜有相似的烹饪技巧，由此可知，Bianca觉得中国菜是特殊的和熟悉的。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Seeing some people commenting in German or English and saying ‘I want to try it’, I felt these videos can narrow the gap between the two cultures,” said Mr. Bear, a vlogger on Bilibili who promotes Chinese cooking.(“看到一些人用德语或英语评论说‘我想试试’，我觉得这些视频可以缩小两种文化之间的差距，”推广中国烹饪的哔哩哔哩博主Mr. Bear说)”可知，Mr. Bear的视频让外国人了解了中国美食，推广了中国烹饪，缩小了文化之间的差距，由此可知，从最后一段我们了解到Mr. Bear的视频对文化交流产生了影响。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读文章，结合第三段关键句“Other popular videos under the tag include “odd food” challenges, traditional Chinese dishes and Chinese snack tasting, the latter of which has become particularly popular among young omnivore vloggers (video bloggers) living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization.(其他受欢迎的视频还包括“奇餐”挑战、中国传统菜肴和中国小吃品尝，后者在生活在文化全球化不断扩大的世界中的年轻的喜欢尝试不同食物的博主中尤其流行)”可知，本文通过制作中国菜的视频在网络上受到欢迎的例子告诉我们，中国烹饪在年轻的博主中很受欢迎。故选A项。

47. 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。
My father asked me to chat with him for a while. Actually, I was unwilling to listen to his talking endlessly as he always did. My father was a lawyer, but I never wanted to go to law school or follow his path through life.
As was expected, he cleared his throat and started to say, “Er... What... What do you really want to do in the gorgeous(灿烂的) future?”
I was silent for a moment playing with the cell phone. I kept thinking, “Should I tell him my true thoughts? What if he gets angry? What if I let him down?” later I replied, “Well, I want to be a writer.”
I guessed this may be not the answer he would expect. But surprisingly, “Interesting idea!” he answered. I was shocked, speaking in a low voice with hesitation.
“Are you serious, dad?”
“Well, you need confidence and good preparations, and you still have plenty of time. You need to find out what you really enjoy now. Look, it’s late. Let’s take the boat out tomorrow morning, just you and me. Maybe we can catch some crabs (螃蟹) for dinner, and we can talk more.”
Early next morning we packed up the equipment and set off for the coast. We didn’t talk much, but enjoyed the sound of the seabirds and the sight of the coastline.
There were no big waves and blinding sunlight at that time. “Let’s see if we are lucky,” he said, picked up a web basket with a rope tied and threw it into the sea. We waited a while, then my father stood up and said, “Give me a hand with this,” and we pulled up the crab cage onto the deck.
To our joy, the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs. Squatting (蹲) down, we watched them for a moment. At first they fought against each other to climb out hard, trying to escape. Many were pulled back into the cage. Later, some gave up, but there were still some crabs trying to escape again and again.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
At that moment, my father pointed to the cage, “Look at that crab, there!”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that day on I was determined to make my dream come true
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】At that moment my father pointed to the cage, “Look at that crab, there!” Staring at the crab, I found that every time he wanted to escape, he was pulled back into the cage. However, he didn't give up his fight. Fortunately, he survived from the struggle eventually. Shocked and amazed, I suddenly understood why my father had suggested catching crabs that morning. I thought the future would be filled with many possibilities. Everyone would need to find out what he enjoyed and held on to it.
From that day on, I was determined to make my dream come true. Besides my devotion to school work, I spent all my spare time making full preparations for becoming a writer. Reading, collecting materials and writing made my life busy but fulfilled, which laid a good foundation for me. Meanwhile, I contributed to literature journals. Gradually, some achievements as a writer increased my confidence. I always think of the crab whenever faced with difficulties. What my father said also encouraged me on my way to success. Now I am grateful for sticking to the thing I truly dreamed of.
【解析】
