18、n-mile journey of the NASA Perseverance rover(探测器)to Mars ended successfully on February 18,2021,with a picture-perfect landing inside the Jezero Crater.The car-sized,six-wheeled rover,nicknamed Percy,is the US space agency s biggest and most advanced explorer to date.Its primary mission is to searc
19、h for signs of ancient microbial(微生 物的)life on Mars.Landing on Mars is extremely tricky .The Red Planet, s gravitational(弓I 力的)pull causes approaching spacecraft to go faster to high speeds,while its thin atmosphere-just 1 percent that of Earth s-does little to help slow it down as it approaches the
20、 surface.The scientists had to reduce Percy s 12,000 mph speed to a safe landing speed of less than five mphin just six and a half minutes.The target entry angle also had to be a precise12 degrees-any steeper,and the spacecraft would burn up;any flatter,and it would get lost in space.lt is no wonder
21、 that the final approach is often referred to as the “seven minutes of terror”.Upon attaining a manageable speed,Percy briefly flew over the Martian surface to seek out the perfect landing spot.Its complex map-reading system rapidly scanned the area and matched it with maps in its database to find t
22、he best location.The NASA scientists will spend the next two months testing Percy? s scientific instruments.Once ready,the rover will begin to carry out its mission.Perseverance is the smartest robot ever made,but confirming that microbial life once existed carries an unusually large burden of proof
23、 J said Lori Glaze,director of NASA s Planetary Science Division/While we 11 learn a lot with the great instruments we have aboard the rover,it may very well require the far more well-equipped laboratories and delicate instruments back here on Earth to tell us whether our samples (样本)carry evidence
24、that Mars once harbored life.”.What is the extraordinary challenge for the rover to land on Mars? A.The speed reduction.B.The atmosphere analysis.C.The location search.D.The time management.8 .What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Ways to find the precise entry angle. B.Consequences of wrong entry deg

What can be inferred from Lori Glaze s words? A.Instruments aboard the rover are not quite reliable.Perseveranc
26、e is able to collect enough evidence needed.C.Man still has a long way to go to prove life was on Mars.D.Samples of Mars will be returned soon to our labs on Earth.DAnyone who commutes(通勤)by car knows that traffic jams are an unavoidable part of life.But humans are not alone in facing potential jams
27、.Ants also commute-between their nests and sources of food.The survival of their colonies depends on doing this efficiently.When humans commute,there? s a point at which cars become dense (稠密的)enough to slow down the flow of traffic,causing a jam.Researchers wanted to know if ants on the move could
28、also get stuck.So they regulated traffic density by constructing bridges of various widths between a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food.Then they waited and watched,trying to find out at what point they were going to have a traffic jam.But it appeared that that never happened.They always
29、managed to avoid a traffic jam.The flow of ants did increase in the beginning as ants started to fill the bridge and then leveled off at high density.But it never slowed down or stopped,even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants.The researchers then took a closer look at how the behaviour of i
30、ndividual ants impacted traffic as a whole.And they found that when ants sense overcrowding,they adjust their speeds and avoid entering high-density areas,which prevents jams.Their behaviour may be promoted by pheromones,chemicals that can tell other ants where a trail is.The ants also manage to avo
31、id colliding(碰撞)with each other at high density,which could really slow them down.Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems?Not likely.That? s because when it comes to getting from point A to point B as fast as possible,human drivers put their own goals first.Individual ants have to be more co
32、operative in order to feed the colony.But the research could be useful in improving traffic flow for self-driving cars,which can be designed to be less like selfish humansand more like ants.12 .What does the underlined wordthis in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Surviving.B.Commuting.C.Finding food.D. Avoidi
33、ng jams.13 .How did the researchers control the traffic density of the commuting ants?A.Through closer observation.B.By regulating their numbers.C.By finding out the dense points.D.By controlling the widths of their path.14 .How can ants avoid traffic jams according to the research?A.They follow a s
34、pecial route.B.They make their flow steady at high density.C.They never stop or slow down on the way.D.They depend on their natural chemicals to make adjustment.15 .Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Traffic JamsB.Survival of an Ant ColonyC.Unavoidable?Not for Ants!D.Differe
35、nces Between Humans and Antsn.七选五In the workplace,one of the most important skills to possess is good communication. j;it means they are able to listen to others,as well as successfully convey their own ideas and opinions.While listening and speaking are important in effective communication,there ar
