8、第二部分 阅读理解(共两节)第一节(共10小题) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。AAs a student astronomer scanning the skies with homemade instruments a quarter of a century ago, Didier Queloz spent months doubting the data that led him to an inescapable conclusion: Hed just discovered the first planet outside Earths sola
9、r system(太阳系). The Swiss scientist had spent much of his PhD research refining techniques to detect so-called exoplanets(系外行星), which until one night in October 1995 had previously only existed in the world of science fiction(科幻小说).Queloz and his advisor Michel Mayor, who were awarded the Nobel Priz
10、e for Physics for their pioneering work in October 2019, had already overcome a number of obstacles(障碍) in their search. Theyd carefully constructed their own equipment at the Haute-Provence Observatory at the foot of the French Alps.The planet theyd discovered, known as 51 Pegasi b, was too big. “T
11、he planet that we found was extremely strange and its not at all the way you would have expected a planet to be,” Queloz said. “I remember many discussions Id had with Mayor and trying to prove that it was not a planet but in the end we always circled back and said that thats the only explanation.”
12、The exoplanet was roughly the size of Jupiter, yet was more than 20 times closer to its star than Earth is to the Sun. Sara Seager, planetary scientist and astrophysicist at mat, who was a graduate student at Harvard when Queloz and Mayor made their discovery, thought of a huge public argument at th
13、e time. She said, “People resisted it, and rightly so in science you couldnt see the planet, you didnt have a photo of one, you were just seeing the star, the effect on the star, so people wanted to put that effect(down) to something else.”Queloz said the teams discovery took time to be recognized b
14、ecause before the research exoplanets were strange within the astronomy community. Today, thanks to their pioneering work, there are more than 4,000 known exoplanets and billions of stars thought to be orbited by them. 21. What was Quelozs contribution to astronomy? A. He invented astronomical instr
15、uments. B. He was a pioneer in exploring exoplanets. C. He was the first to find the stars near Jupiter. D. He collected valuable data about the solar system. 22. What can we learn from Quelozs words in Paragraph 4? A. He was unsatisfied with the finding. B. He disagreed with Mayor on the finding. C
16、. He firmly believed the finding all the time. D. He proved the finding by careful reasoning. 23. What do the underlined words “resisted it” in Paragraph 6 mean? A. Tried to tolerate it. B. Refused to accept it. C. Asked about it curiously. D. Considered it very important. BIt can already be difficu
17、lt to say a scientific word like “deoxyribonucleotide(脱氧核糖核苷酸)” let alone spell it out in sign language but thats why this young student is being praised for inventing new ways for deaf scientists to communicate. Liam Mcmulkin, who was born deaf, went to the University of Dundee, Scotland, to study
18、life sciences in 2015. Like most first - year students, Mcmulkin was worried about not being able to keep up a college workload. Since he was the only deaf student at the university, he also feared that he would have trouble keeping up with the course lectures. Though there are some British Sign Lan
19、guage(BSL) translations of scientific vocabularies, they become fairly limited for college-level communication. As Mcmulkin continued studying at university, he became more and more frustrated by how his translator would be forced to spell out long complex(复杂的) words. “Watching the interpreters(译员)
20、for a one-hour lecture is very tiring,” Mcmulkin said. “There are a lot of new words and scientific words are often very long. Sometimes the interpreter would be finger spelling for ages and I had to watch it. We would make up new signs which meant it was easier next time, but it also meant I had to
21、 learn new signs, which was very tiring.”After some painful days, Mcmulkin finally resolved to develop a whole new set of BSL words for himself and future life sciences students. To date, he has created over 100 new signs for scientific words that have been officially recognized in formal BSL, which
22、 is used by about 87,000 people across the UK.“Liams effort to create new signs is very important to the future of the life sciences,” said Dr. Marios Stavridis, Principal Investigator at the School of Life Sciences. “If you imagine having to finger spell highly technical terms while sitting in a le
23、cture or having a quick conversation with a colleague(同事), you can appreciate how difficult it has been for Liam. With these signs, Liam and other deaf students will be able to access science on a whole other level.”24. What was Liam worried about when he first arrived at university? A. He would be
24、laughed at by others. B. He couldnt two well in his studies. C. He had chosen a wrong main subject. D. He wouldnt have interpreters to help him. 25. What made Liam feel tired during the lectures? A. The interpreters too fast finger spelling. B. The interpreters inability to create new signs. C. The
25、interpreters failure to use signs correctly. D. The interpreters limited signs for scientific words. 26. What does Dr. Marios Stavridis think of Liams invention? A. It needs testing among deaf students. B. It will do good to deaf students studies. C. It will encourage other similar creations. D. It
26、sets a good example to college teachers. CThe divisive campaign likens obesity(肥胖) to smoking. Cancer Research UKs latest campaign is at the centre of an online discussion about fat shaming. The campaign sees the word “obesity” appear on the front of cigarette packets in place of brand names and hea
27、lth warnings. In a blog post, Cancer Research UK explains the thinking behind the divisive ads by showing that obese people outnumber smokers two to one, and that heavy weight causes more cases of certain cancers than smoking. “The campaign compared smoking with obesity to show how policy(政策) change
28、 can help people form healthier habits, not to compare tobacco with food,” the charity says. But despite Cancer Research UKs reasoning, the campaign has quickly brought a strong public reaction. Web developer Ken Lynch described the campaign as a “new low” in a widely shared post on Twitter. This sw
29、eet has led to a series of back-and-forth replies, where people either voice their dislike of the campaign or defend it. A common idea running through the response(回复) is that Cancer Research UK is fat shaming obese people. The discussion cent res on the confusion around who Cancer Research UK is ai
30、ming its campaign at. In a sweet, user Ann coated says that the ads will cause “nothing but harm” to obese people. But the charity insists that it isnt changing the ads. Instead, it wants to use them to go after the government in order to bring about a policy change that will halve childhood obesity
31、 rats by 2030, and place restrictions on ads for junk food on TV and online. In the blog post, Cancer Research UKs prevention expert Linda B auld added: “There isnt a silver bullet to reduce obesity, but the big fall in smoking over the years partly thanks to advertising and environmental bans shows
32、 that government-led change works. It was needed to cut sky-high smoking races, and now the same is true for obesity.”27. What was Cancer Research UKs original idea behind its campaign? A. To warn obese people not to smoke. B. To use “obesity” as a cigarette name. C. To show obesity is more serious than sm
