1．It was a dark and stormy night.I was about to go to bed when I heard a tapping sound on my window.
"Who's there？" I shouted.Suddenly there was a flash of lightning；I saw a face at the window.It looked like an alien（外星人）--- an alien that I had seen on the television show， "the X files".
I felt very scared.I ran to my bed and pulled my blanket over my head.I started to shout for my parents but there was no reply.Then I remembered that they were at a fancy dress party.
I looked out of my blanket but it was too dark to see anything.Then I heard footsteps.They were getting louder and louder.I ran to my drawer to take out my camera and started to take pictures in the direction of the window.Soon the footsteps died off.
The grandfather clock struck.It was 12 midnight.I went back to my bed and tried to sleep.But I could not sleep.I felt too frightened.I sat up，and my mind was full of thoughts.Time passed --- finally，I fell asleep.
I woke up only after eight and decided to find out what it had been.I found some footprints outside my bedroom window.I measured them with a ruler and found them to be exactly the same size as my father's shoes.I then went to town to get the film developed.I didn't realize that I did not use the flash until I saw the black photos.
When I reached home，I told my father the whole incident and he started to laugh.I started laughing too when he told me that he had dressed up as an alien for the party.Today，I am still amused to think I was so afraid of my own father.

2．Most humans are able to recognize about 1 million different colors，but some people can't recognize this many because of something called colorblindness（色盲）.In rare cases，some people can't see any colors at all.
There are three cone-shaped（錐形的）cells at the back of our eyes that allow us to see colors.These cells absorb tight waves and send a message to the brain，where the image is processed.
If something is wrong with these cone-shaped cells，this can result in colorblindness.
Thankfully，special color-correcting glasses have already been made to help fix some types or colorblindness.Now，according to research published in Optics Letters，scientists have provided another choice.
Sharon Karepov and Tal Ellenbogen，engineers from Tel Aviv University in Israel，have found a way to apply this technology to contact lenses（隱形眼鏡）.This is good news for the millions of people worldwide who suffer from colorblindness.
One of the most common types of colorblindness is red-green colorblindness.People who have this specific type have difficulty telling the colors red and green apart. "Problems with distinguishing red from green stop simple daily routines such as deciding whether a banana is ripe，" Karepov explained.
Karepov also stressed the importance of applying this finding to create special contact lenses instead of relying on color-correcting glasses.
"Glasses based on this correction concept are commercially available.However，they are too big than contact lenses." Karepov said. "Our contact lenses create a customized，compact and durable（耐用的）way to deal with these shortcomings."
This new research is groundbreakjye.aig.In addition to offering those who are colorblind another option，it may lead to solutions for other visual damage.
（1）What can cause colorblindness according to the article？
A．Only one type of cone-shaped cell exists in the eyes.
B．Cone-shaped cells probably don't work properly.
C．Cone-shaped cells cannot process images received.
D．The brain fails to absorb and process light waves.
（2）What is true about people with colorblindness？
A．They can recognize 1 million different colors.
B．They are not interested in colorful stuff.
C．They may find daily tasks more difficult.
D．They have fewer cone-shaped cells than other people.
（3）What is the advantage of the contact lenses over the glasses？
A．They are much cheaper.
B．They are easier to make.
C．They are of smaller size.
D．They can help correct colorblindness.
（4）Why is Sharon Karepov and Tal Ellenbogen's research groundbreaking？
A．It could lead to solutions for other visual damage.
B．It has found causes of visual damage.
C．It has led to a cure for colorblindness.
D．It has helped to develop glasses to fix visual damage.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
3．The ancient Herculaneum scrolls （卷軸） are thought to contain works of important thinkers in ancient Greece.But the scrolls can't be unrolled.Even a light wind threatens to reduce them to dust.The reason is that they were turned into carbon by a natural disaster in A.D.79.
But now researchers from the University of Kentucky have found a way to look inside the scrolls without having to touch them.They first create a light that is 10 billion times brighter than the sun by taking advantage of a machine.Then they will use the light to go through the Herculaneum scrolls to study and finally read the words recorded on the scrolls.Researchers think it might take them six months to read the scrolls.
This isn't the first time researchers have tried to read the Herculaneum scrolls.Several years ago scientists from the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility（ESRF） worked on uncovering the mystery using an X-ray beam 100 billion times brighter than anything used in a hospital.This didn't allow scientists to actually read the scrolls，but it allowed them to make one surprising discovery.The scrolls were written in metallic ink，a writing technology that scientists didn't know existed at the time the scrolls were penned.
"For a long time，we thought our studies have let us know everything about the ancient ink used to write on scrolls.Now we find it's not the case.This shows that we should tell ourselves it may not be true when thinking we fully know something once some research is done，" said Daniel Delattre，one of the study's authors.
The finding wasn't just a historical interest.To learn just how special these scrolls are，consider that the thinker Chrysippus in ancient Greece is said to have written over 70 works；but all are lost，with the exception of a few works found in the Herculaneum scrolls.In other words，it's possible that these scrolls represent the only existing complete works left by this great thinker.And who knows what other great works could exist in the scrolls？
（1）What do we know about the Herculaneum scrolls？
A．They were damaged by people in A.D.79.
B．They're impossible to read for a long time.
C．They have been poorly kept in the past few years.
D．They can be easily found in the libraries at present.
（2）What's Paragraph 2 mainly about？
A．The reasons why scientists create a powerful light.
B．The new method to read the Herculaneum scrolls.
C．The comparisons of the man-made light with the sunlight.
D．The advantages of using machine to study the Herculaneum scrolls.
（3）What achievement did the ESRF's scientists make？
A．Creating a kind of ink similar to the ancient one.
B．Finding more about the ancient way to record information.
C．Showing the paper material used for the Herculaneum scrolls.
D．Making clear some words written in the Herculaneum scrolls.
（4）Chrysippus' works are mentioned in the last paragraph to show.
A．the culture of ancient Greece helps us know its situation then
B．the thoughts of ancient thinkers are widely spread
C．the Herculaneum scrolls are recognized by different writers
D．the Herculaneum scrolls are probably of great value組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5 -
4．Ask people in the UK what the words "Sunday roast" mean to them，and they'll probably take you back to their grandmothers' dining rooms - maybe with a few stories of "the greatest puddings" and "the best ever steak".But now the traditional Sunday roast seems to have been left back in the old days.According to the Daily Mail，just one in 50 British families sits down to this weekly meal together.
There are many reasons why the roast is becoming less popular.In the busy modern world，where breakfast is a slice of toast eaten on the way to work or school and lunch is a quick sandwich in front of the computer screen，people just don't seem to have the time or patience to make a roast.
And Sunday was once a day when people could easily go to the kitchen to cook.Nowadays，people are often out shopping or at the cinema until it's far too late to start thinking about heating the oven （烤箱） up.
However，a recent article from The Telegraph warned against being carried away by our tight schedules： "It would be a shame to let this fine old tradition disappear."
The Guardian further explained that the eating of the big meal is only the half of it.The Sunday roast also makes for relaxed morning activities in the kitchen，and the table becomes the perfect place to share good food and chat with family and friends. "For busy moms and dads，even if you can manage to turn off your mobile phone and the TV only once a week and turn the Sunday roast into a real family event，children can have fun cooking the food and clearing up together."
（1）Why do people pay less attention to Sunday roast？
A．They lead a busy life.
B．They have no interest in cooking.
C．They don't think it worthwhile.
D．They are living in the modern society.
（2）What does the underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refer to？
A．A recent article.
B．A traditional kitchen.
C．The fine old tradition.
D．The Sunday morning activity.
（3）How does the author feel towards Sunday roast's dying out？
A．Doubtful.
B．Sorry.
C．Uncertain.
D．Positive
（4）What is the best title for the passage？
A．Sunday-Best Time for Family
B．Let's Sit Down Together
C．It's the Perfect Time for Us
D．Sunday Roast Dying Out組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5

5．Since the DISEASE officially began in March，we've been told staying home is the best way to avoid catching Covid-19.But being homebound（居家隔離）for so long affects the body，weakening the heart and lungs and even damages the brain. （1）
.This is what half a year of staying home can do to your body.
A week homebound，whether you are working，eating or sleeping，seems to give you a sense of comfort.（2）.That's because it can take months to build muscle and just one week to lose it.When you lose muscle，you're not necessarily losing shape，but you are losing strength.The stronger we stay，the easier it is for us to live longer.
If you're not exercising，you're not raising your heart rate.And when your heart isn't pumping as hard，it gets weaker.（3）.Many patients have felt their breathing function become worse，because they're no longer conditioned to exercise.Exercise is the only key to improving both heart and lung function.If it's not safe to leave the house，doctors recommend dancing or finding household objects for home strength training.
（4）.Exercise produces certain chemicals in the brain that break down toxins in the blood and even prevent them from going to the brain，where they can kill brain cells.
The effects of homebound are hidden-like the DISEASE，the physical reactions after months of staying home often aren't obvious until they become harmful or extreme.Keeping your mental and physical health while staying home requires some work，but it's a better preparation for uncertainty until Covid-19 is over.（5）.
A.But actually，it can ruin hard-won fruit.
B.The effects may stay with us beyond DISEASE's end.
C.This kind of lifestyle can slow your brain，too.
D.Possibly，you can work out in the gym.
E.And when it's safe to live fully again，you'll be prepared.
F.The same thing happens to your lungs when you're inactive.
G.Hopefully，the day will come when the DISEASE is swept away.組卷：6引用：2難度：0.4
