文章大意:本文是一篇说明文。火星上曾经有液态水,这是怎么形成的呢?科学家们提出了新的理论。

2 . The surface of Mars is etched(蚀刻) with ancient river valleys and lake basins. Some researchers think that liquid water once flowed on the Red Planet. Today, Mars is too cold for much, if any, liquid water to exist. And 3. 8 billion years ago, when the flowing water formed, the sun was fainter than it is today, making it even harder to imagine a warm Martian climate. That’s why many researchers think Mars may have gone in and out of deep freezes.

Some researchers have suggested that early Mars only melt when large asteroid(小行星) impacts or volcanic eruptions temporarily warmed the planet. But Kasting, a geologist at Pennsylvania State University, thinks warm windows from such dramatic events would have been too brief to carve the vast valleys that exist on Mars. Now, Kasting and his colleagues have come up with an alternative explanation: They think Mars may have experienced a series of climate cycles caused by changes in the strength of the greenhouse effect.

The idea goes like this: When Mars was cold and frozen, volcanoes continued to erupt the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen into the atmosphere. There, the gas blanket trapped heat and warmed the planet up until liquid water began to flow, forming Mars’ rivers and lakes. However, warm temperatures and abundant water would also have sped up certain chemical reactions that consumed carbon dioxide, mitigating the greenhouse effect and cooling the planet back down again. Then the cycle would repeat.

Kasting shared his theory with other astronomers at the December meeting of the Ameri- can Geophysical Union in San Francisco, and in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters. So far, Kasting’s team has only shown that such an explanation is possible. But the researchers say field trips could help test the idea by looking for evidence of multiple warm events, and their duration.

1. What made researchers believe that liquid water once existed on Mars?
A.The color of the planet.B.The geological features of Mars.
C.The temperatures of the sun.D.The natural climate of Mars.
2. Which idea may Kasting agree with?
A.Large asteroids had no impact on Mars.
B.Volcanic eruptions were very frequent on Mars.
C.There were no carbon dioxide and hydrogen on Mars.
D.The vast valleys on Mars couldn’t be formed in a short time.
3. What does the underlined word “mitigating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Reducing.B.Imitating.C.Predicting.D.Enhancing.
4. Which of the following might confirm Kasting’s theory?
A.The publication of the journal.B.The future Mars missions.
C.The design of the climate model.D.The cooperation with astronomers.

文章大意:本文为一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了光绘师Roy Wang在光绘领域的成长。

5 . In artist Roy Wang’s photos, mythical (神话的) creatures from The Classic of Mountains and Seas emerge in front of historical sites of Guangzhou.

The series of photographs is created by light painting in which the photographer uses light sources to produce different images which are captured by a camera, as if drawing on the photos. Roy Wang, the representative figure of light-painting photography in China, says, “What attracts me most about light painting is that, by using a simple light and against a dark background, I can paint in a free style.”

Wang was a professional athlete. However, his sports career ended in 2012 because of injuries. His travels led to his interest in photography. Once he saw light-painting photos by Spanish master Pablo Picasso online and was introduced to the technique. He began to try in this field.

In 2013, he started adding the dragon and other creatures from ancient texts to light painting. Wang’s work is inspired by mythical creatures that add a sense of mystery to his photography but at the same time it proves to be difficult to create such images with light.“The mythical creatures are as mysterious as light painting. They both emerge in the darkness, and without an exact shape or form, they are free. I let loose my imagination,based on the descriptions in ancient books,” said Wang.

To Roy Wang, the technique has a wide application in expressing different ideas. Apart from mythical creatures, he has been showing themes relevant to more recent events, such as a series in praise of medical workers during the outbreak of COVID-19.

Tradition will continue to be a creative force for Wang as he wants to add more Chinese elements in his works, including his next series, creating photos that have both aesthetic (美学的) and cultural values.

1. What is special about Roy Wang’s paintings?
A.They are made with light.
B.They are drawn on the photos.
C.They tell stories about ancient life.
D.They mainly show us historical sites.
2. What inspired Wang to start his new career?
A.Sudden injuries.B.Travels with a master.
C.His sports career.D.Photos by Pablo Picasso.
3. What problem does Wang have in photographing mythical creatures?
A.It needs a lot of light to draw the creatures.
B.There are few specific images of the creatures.
C.His technique is not suitable for the creatures
D.He has little knowledge of ancient books.
4. What can we infer about Wang’s future works?
A.They will mainly praise medical workers.
B.They will express Wang’s ideas about art.
C.They will focus on important recent events.
D.They will contain traditional Chinese culture.

文章大意:本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是网课期间,出现一种新的网络犯罪形式——黑客们入侵学校网站,给学生家里发送钓鱼邮件来盗取孩子们的个人身份信息,利用这些信息从事非法活动获利,这一犯罪形式虽不易察觉但破坏性较大。

9 . If you’re a parent, you’re well aware of just how many challenges virtual schooling presents. It’s incredibly stressful to get your kids to pay attention in their “classrooms”. Well, now there’s another thing you need to worry about: hackers. As more school districts rely on remote learning, they’re increasingly becoming targets for cybercriminals.

Believe it or not, your email address is actually a hacker’s primary method of attaining your families’ personal information. That’s why you need to be on the lookout for phishing emails. These emails appear to be from a legal company you’re familiar with—like your bank, credit card company, an online store, or, yes, a school—but are actually from a hacker.

However, there are a few tricks to decode if an email is fake or not. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), these emails often “tell a story to trick you into clicking on a link or opening an attachment.” If you receive an email asking you to update your account, change your password, or make a payment, do a little digging first and contact the company directly to ensure that it is indeed legal.

There are indeed some alarming things a hacker can do when they steal your children’s information. According to FTC, “a child’s Social Security number can be used by identity thieves to apply for government benefits, open bank and credit card accounts or apply for a loan, which may go unnoticed for years—usually until they’re adults and attempt to open a credit card.” To make matters worse, a criminal doesn’t even need the child’s complete information to cook up a new identity. “Known as ‘synthetic identity theft’, the thief grabs a Social Security number and combines it with a fake name, address, phone number, and more,” explains the Identity Theft Resource Center, “That makes it a little harder for victims and law enforcement to notice the problem in the first place or take action after the fact.”

1. Why do we need to watch out for phishing emails?
A.They make our emails too crowded to operate.
B.They are from a legal organization that is familiar to you.
C.It is impossible to tell whether an email is authentic or not.
D.It may be quite easy for hackers to steal personal information.
2. Which method is effective to distinguish a phishing email from a legal one?
A.To put it into the trash with little digging.
B.To click on the link and open the attached files.
C.To update your account and change the password.
D.To check its validity with the sender of the email.
3. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A.The definition of “synthetic identify theft”.
B.The approaches to protecting children’s information.
C.The consequences of children’s information being stolen.
D.The suggestions on preventing children from internet addiction.
4. What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Email hack: a disastrous threat
B.Email hack: an unavoidable issue
C.School hack: an unnoticeable but terrible threat
D.School hack: an invisible hand affecting children’s study

文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了心里测量学应用于金融系统,能帮助判断借款人是否还款。

10 . How would you feel if you were invited to the moon? If you found a gold coin, would you save it, give it to charity or use it for a holiday? Personality quizzes of this kind, known as “psychometrics”, have bothered many job seekers. Now, it is being applied to the oldest problem in finance: will a borrower repay?

In rich countries, lenders use credit scores to weigh risk. But just 7% of Africans and 13% of South Asians are covered by credit bureaus (征信机构). Bailey Klinger of the Entrepreneurial Finance Lab (EFL), which explores new kinds of credit data, argues that psychometrics could include many more people in the financial system. Everyone has a personality, after all.

Judging character is not new. Psychometrics attempts to make it a science. The model developed by EFL has undergone many tests and adapted to different cultures. Its collected data reflect something unnoticed. For instance, young optimists are risky, but old ones are a safe bet.

Clever design cuts cheating. There are no obvious right answers; responses are cross-checked for consistency. The model monitors mouse movements for signs of indecision or distraction. When borrowers lie to get a loan, they often do so in predictable ways. In an EFL test, people are shown pictures of five drinks and asked which one they would be. Choosing water over something with small bubbles may be a sign of cheating.

This sounds fanciful, but there is evidence that it works. In one Indonesian bank, combining psychometrics with existing customer data cut default (违约) rates for small businesses by 45%. A study by the World Bank found that EFL’s model increased lending to those without a credit history.

The technique needs further development. At present, turning to credit bureaus is still the best way to tell if somebody will repay a loan. But bureaus improve more slowly than technology. Lenders will find ever more ways to look into their customers’ souls.

1. What are the figures intended to show in the second paragraph?
A.Racial discrimination from lenders.
B.Uncertain property of poor people.
C.Great risks brought by credit scores.
D.Current weakness of credit bureaus.
2. What can we learn about EFL’s model in the third paragraph?
A.It has been greatly improved.
B.Its data confirm some ideas.
C.Its effects vary with cultures.
D.It can’t tell character exactly.
3. What does “mouse movements” refer to in the fourth paragraph?
A.Borrowers’ responses.B.Lenders’ answers.
C.Pictures of five drinks.D.Drinks with bubbles.
4. What does the last paragraph imply about psychometrics in finance?
A.It will replace credit bureaus.
B.It will be mature in the future.
C.It has won most lenders’ love.
D.It is far from satisfactory.
