1．When to Harvest Your Fruits and Vegetables From peas and beans to cabbages and cauliflower to soft fruits，here's how to tell when the harvest is ready!Here is everything you need to know when the harvest is ready and here's how to tell when it's the perfect time to harvest your crops!
Root Crops
Beets and turnips：Ready when golf-ball-sized to tennis-ball-sized.
Carrots：Ready as soon as they're big enough for your needs.Leave main-crop varieties in the ground until you're ready to use them，including over winter in milder areas.
Soft Fruits
Blackcurrants：Ready a week after turning black.
Blueberries：Ready two or three days after turning blue.
Peas and Beans
Peas and fava beans：Ready when the peas feel well-developed in their pods.Shells need a few to double-check.
Pole beans and bush beans：Ready when long and smooth，but before beans start to bulge（膨脹） inside.
Potatoes
Early potatoes：Ready 10 to 12 weeks after planting，when the plants come into flower.
Main-crop potatoes for storing：Ready 20 weeks after planting，once all the leaves have died back.Without timely harvest，they would be reaped （收獲） nothing.
Fruiting Vegetables
Cucumbers：Ready when there is no pronounced point at the tip and they grow appropriate，which depends on what you need.Can be picked small for snacking cucumbers，or larger for slicing（切片）.
Zucchini：Ready when they reach about 4 inches（10 centimeters） long.
Summer squash：Ready as soon as they reach a desirable length.

2．Liu Yang，China's first female astronaut，reportedly，has touched the hearts of millions with a letter to her two children that was made public after she set off into space for the second time earlier this month.
"You're my strongest armor （盔甲） and softest spot.I didn't allow you to see me off at the launch site because I was afraid that I would burst into tears， "Liu wrote in the letter to her daughter，8，and son，6，just days before being launched into space for the second time on June 5 on the Shenzhou XIV mission.
Liu，43，became China's first female astronaut in 2012，when she spent 13 days in space during the Shenzhou IX mission.During the Shenzhou XIV mission，she will stay at the Tiangong space station for six months，working with two male colleagues to complete the construction of the station.
Many people said that Liu's words allowed them to see that a national hero is also an ordinary mother，and they wished for her safe return.
"Liu fully expressed her love for her children in the letter.It brought tears to my eyes，" commented one netizen on Sina Weibo，China's Twitter-like micro-blogging platform.
"I feel more confident and relaxed，" Liu told the media ahead of the launch of the Shenzhou XIV mission.
"When I was about to return to the orbital module during the Shenzhou IX mission，I stopped and turned around to salute （致敬） the experimental space station module that I stayed in.At that moment，I told myself that I would come back to space in the near future.I didn't expect the 'near future' to be a decade long，" Liu said.
In the letter，she encouraged her children not to be afraid of failure while pursuing their dreams.Liu added that she felt sorry that she could not be there for her son on his first day at primary school. "Although I cannot be with you，I won't love you any less，" she wrote in the letter. "My babies，if you miss me，just look up into the starry sky.Every time you see the stars twinkle，it's because I' m saying 'I love you'."
（1）What is the common reason for Liu's and netizen's tears？
A．Liu's affection for her children.
B．Liu's indifferent expressions.
C．Liu's separation from her family.
D．Liu's refusal to meet with her kids.
（2）Which of the following best describes Liu taking over the Shenzhou XIV mission？
A．Considerate and excited.
B．Talkative and expectant.
C．Ready and honest.
D．Confident and equipped.
（3）What is Liu's purpose of writing this letter？
A．To encourage kids to try.
B．To say goodbye to her children.
C．To catch public attention.
D．To praise the spirit of space.
（4）From which is the text probably taken？
A．A science magazine.

3．Earthquakes have rocked the planet for many years.Studying the quakes of the past could help scientists better understand modern earthquakes，but tools to do such work are exiguous.
Enter zircons.Researchers used this special means to home in on the temperatures within a fault （地殼斷層） during earthquakes millions of years ago.The method offers insights into the strength of long-ago quakes，and can improve the understanding of how today's earthquakes release energy，the researchers reported in the April Geochemistry，Geophysics，Geosystems.
"The more we understand about the past，the more we can understand what might happen in the future，" said Emma Armstrong，a professor specializing in earthquakes at Utah State University in Logan.Armstrong and his colleagues focused on California's Punchbowl Fault.That now-quiet portion of the larger San Andreas Fault was probably active between 1 million to 10 million years ago，Armstrong said.
Heat from friction （摩擦） is generated in a fault when it slips and touches off an earthquake.Previous analyses of preserved organic material suggested that temperatures within the Punchbowl Fault peaked between 465℃ and 1065℃.The researchers suspected that zircons in rocks from the fault could narrow that broad window.Zircons often contain the radioactive chemical elements uranium （U） and thorium（Th），which decay （衰變） to helium （He） at a predictable rate.That helium （He） then builds up in the crystals.But when a zircon is heated past a temperature criticality value—the size of which depends on the zircon's composition—the accumulated helium （He） escapes.
Measuring the amounts of the three elements in zircons from the fault suggests that the most in-tense earthquake generated temperatures lower than 800℃.That roughly halves the range previously reported.The finding provides useful clues to the amount of heat released by quakes，something difficult to measure for modern earthquakes because they often occur at great depths.Armstrong plans to continue studying zircons，in the hope of finding more ways to take advantage of them for details about ancient quakes.
（1）What does the underlined word "exiguous" in Paragraph 1 mean？
A．Scarce.
B．Difficult.
C．Pricey.
D．Extraordinary.
（2）What are the researcher's assumptions about the zircons in rocks？
A．They can lead to various earthquakes.
B．They determine how much of their energy.
C．They can reduce the fault temperature range.
D．They would decay over long periods.
（3）What might Emma Armstrong study next？
A．Impact of changing earthquakes on zircons.
B．Origin and development of enter zircons.
C．Difference between modern and ancient quakes.
D．More ways to use zircons for ancient quake study.
（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？
A．Earthquakes Bring about Global W arming
B．Ancient Zircons Help to Unearth Earthquakes
C．An Innovative Means Makes a Hit in Studying
D．Zircons Changed Our Views of Earthquakes組卷：4引用：5難度：0.5

9．It was a bright spring afternoon along the coast，and Jonathan Bauer，51 and his 13-year-old daughter，Ava，were taking full advantage of it.They were driving with the windows down as they headed home on the 1.4-mile，two-lane Route 90 bridge，which crosses the shallow waters of the bay.Suddenly，the calm was disturbed by the loud noise of tires.
Not far ahead of them，a black pickup truck was skidding （打滑） from one lane to the other.To Bauer's horror，it crashed into a concrete barrier，spun like a top，flipped over the SUV directly ahead of them，and came to rest hanging over the railing of the bridge.Bauer hit the brakes in time to avoid the vehicles in his path，but a BMW car that had hit into the guardrail on the right，came sliding backward towards him.He turned left，but too late — the BMW struck his car's fender （保險(xiǎn)杠） before crashing into the vehicle behind him.
Bauer stopped the car. "Ava，are you OK？" he asked.She was shaken，but otherwise unhurt.
He ran to the BMW. "Are you OK？" he asked the driver.She nodded，too shocked to speak.
And then a shout.It came from the pickup truck，which had come to rest on its right side.The back passenger compartment （車廂隔間） and truck bed were hung out past the guardrail，30 or more feet above the waters of the bay.The driver's door was open and a man climbed out.He dropped to the ground，then storming to the railing.Bauer ran up beside him.The man pointed down.In the water was a car seat.Next to it，a girl，about two years old，was terrified，floating on her back，and screaming.
From around the truck，its other passengers who had gotten clear of the compartment were looking down into the water.
Matters quickly went from bad to frightening when the girl rolled over onto her stomach.Bauer waited for the pickup truck driver to do something，but he didn't.Maybe he was in shock.
注意：（1）續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
（2）請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
"Ava!" Bauer yelled，trying to remove his shoes. "Stay by the car!" _____
When the little girl was less than 10 feet away，Bauer swam to her quickly._______組卷：3引用：3難度：0.5
