11、lt homesick again.Their family had moved to the Moon nearly four months ago. It still didnt feel like home. The houses were cosy, but outside everything was gray and rocky and lifeless. There was even no weather there at allno rain or snow or even wind.“I miss everything, even the sound of rain on t
12、he roof,” Mary said sadly. “Worst of all, my birthday is in two days, and I dont think Mom and Dad are planning anything special.”Shes probably right, thought Collin. Life on the Moon was busy for scientists like their parents. He doubted if they had time to plan a party. If there was no party, mayb
13、e he could give his sister a gift. However, with limited room in their transport ship, each child had been allowed to bring only two toys from the Earth. Where could he find the gift?The next day, as Collin wandered toward the agricultural center, he found some bamboo plants, which made good buildin
14、g materials. An idea flashed across his mind. He took a piece of bamboo plants, made tiny holes into it, then poured a handful of Moon cobblestones inside and sealed the open ends.When it was done, Collin hurried home, holding the bamboo piece carefully. On seeing his sister, Collin said, “I have a
15、present for you.” He handed his sister the bamboo stick. “Happy birthday!”“What is it?” Mary asked, looking at it curiously.“A rain stick,” said Collin. “Whenever you turn it over, the Moon cobblestones fall inside and it sounds like rain.”Mary turned the stick, and the room was filled with a sound
16、like rain drumming on a roof.“Its Moon rain!” she said. “It makes me feel like Im home.” She smiled at Collin and turned the rain stick over again.1. According to the text, what do we know about the Moon?A. Life there is busy.B. Its weather is changeable.C. Living space there is limited.D. Its surro

18、 Creative and enthusiastic.D. Sensitive and knowledgeable.BEvery day across the United States, there are people sitting in towers more than 100 feet in the air alone, scanning the distance for signs of smoke. They are fire watchers, also known as our eyes in the sky.What is it like to be a fire watc
19、her? Peter Naumann, a former fire watcher, tells about a typical day. “Id get up at 5:30, eat a quick breakfast, and scan the area for smoke once every hour.” Other duties include reporting to headquarters twice each day, cutting firewood and so on. Aside from these required routines, a fire watcher
20、 should have hobbies and like reading, which helps pass the time.While it might sound like a quiet life to some, at any moment, an adventure could begin. “Rainstorms and thunderstorms were a tough time. I had to be awake all through, looking for where the lightning was striking,” says Naumann. Somet
21、imes, fire watchers also need to act as backcountry dispatchers(调度员). For example, Naumann once aided in the rescue of an injured horse rider.It may seem surprising that the life of a fire watcher is very much the same all these years. Even much of the technology used in the early days is still used
22、 today. For example, the Osborne Firefinder is a tool that gives compass headings for fire locations. This tool has been in use for nearly 100 years. Today, fire watchers have the added help of spotter planes, helicopters and satellite imaging.With more and more new technology, why do we still need
23、fire watchers? “Ideally, you should have someone who knows the land features and the weather conditions,” says Naumann. Also, fire watchers are able to see things that satellite imaging cannot, such as the difference between cloud-to-cloud lightning and ground strikes.So the fire watchers still hike
24、 to their posts each fire season. Why? They are our eyes in the sky.4. What do fire watchers do while on duty?A. They read books to pass the time.B. They inspect the area regularly.C. They take on rescue work to seek adventure.D. They carry out multi-tasks frequently.5. Why is Osborne Firefinder men

To show the little change in fire detecting technology.6. What accounts for the irreplaceable role of fire watchers?A. Tech
26、nology may fail to perform some tasks.B. Technology has hardly advanced over the years.C. Humans are still needed to report to headquarters.D. Humans are specialists in land features and weather.CTeens have a reputation for making some not-so-smart decisions and being easily distracted. Researchers
27、have blamed it on the immaturity of the prefrontal cortex(前额叶皮质). But scientists now find the answer may be the attraction of rewards. Rewards, even small ones, affect teens more than adults. And teens tend to be distracted by things they once found rewarding, even after the actual payoff is long go
28、ne.Psychologist Zachary Roper and his team worked with two groups of volunteers: 13-to 16-year olds and 20-to 35-year-old adults. During a training stage, a computer displayed six circles, each a different color. The players had to find the red or green circle and would be provided with a 10-cent or
29、 2-cent reward. By the end of this training, volunteers had realized the value of each color but they didnt know it. Then came the testing time. Again, groups of six symbols, one diamond and five circles, appeared on a computer screen. The researchers measured how long it took people to find the dia
30、mond and recorded their answers.When no red or green circles appeared, both adults and teens responded quickly. But when a red or green circle showed up, both groups took a bit longer initially. Adults, though, quickly stopped paying attention to the red or green circles. Teens took longer to respon
31、d whenever a red or green circle appeared. Clearly, the red and green circles were distracting teens even though they brought no reward.“The study demonstrates that the attention of adolescents is especially drawn to rewarding information,” says Zachary Roper. “These data may help explain why teens
32、engage in risky behaviors.”Some behaviors, such as texting or using social media, start the brains reward system. Once the teenage brain has linked a behavior to that reward, it continues to seek it again and again. Thats why teens are likely to use social media when they should be studying. Or why
33、they respond to texts while driving. So researchers suggest physically removing distractions whenever possible.7. Why do teens tend to make some not-so-smart decisions?A. The appeal of rewards affects their decision making.B. Their skills to respond wisely have not been well trained.C. Their prefron
34、tal cortexes have been improperly developed.D. The tendency to keep doing things prevents them thinking clearly.8. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 2?A. The red or green circle.B. The end of the training.C. The value of each color.D. The awareness of the color value.9. What c
35、an we learn from the study conducted by Zachary Roper and his team?A. Adults were not affected by the red or green circles at all.B. Teens were attracted by the red or green circles because of the high rewards.C. Teens were distracted by the rewarding information even after the reward was gone.D. Ad
36、ults were drawn to the rewarding information only after they were tested repeatedly.10. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Brain Response SystemB. The Effects of RewardsC. The Distracted Teenage BrainD. The Harm of Risky Behaviors第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项
