21、Finland isn't on the North Pole and isn't always covered by snow. Finland is actually covered by forests and lakes. There are plenty of reindeer in the forest and it has a wonderful tradition of making wooden toys, so maybe Santa Claus keeps a factory in Finland. In summer, kids can enjoy long, long days that never end  the nights never really get dark.

The following are some interesting things to do in Helsinki, the capital of Finland.

Market Square

Start your visit at the open-air market at Market Square on the South Harbour. In summer, you can watch people selling fish and potatoes from their boats, eat a bag of fresh strawberries, or a sandwich from the Old Market Hall and sit out on the stone dock (码头) to watch the boats coming and going.

Take a boat ride

From the Market Square, there are four or five possible boat rides. You can take a boat to travel around the islands of Helsinki. Or, you can take a waterbus to Helsinki Zoo.

Seurasaari

23、Researchers said they had found out that there was once an ancient fresh water lake on Mars that might have been able to support life.

A team of researchers from the US Curiosity Rover Mission, analyzed (分析) some mudstone and fine-grained sediment (细粒沉积物) which can tell us that there was at least one lake around 3.6 billion years ago.

The team said their analysis showed that the lake was calm and likely had fresh water, including key biological elements, such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sulphur (硫磺). Theoretically, such a lake would provide perfect conditions for simple living things.

The findings were published in the US Journal Science and presented at the American Geophysical Union’s fall meeting in San Francisco. “It is important to note that we have not found signs of ancient life on Mars. What we have found is that there once existed a lake on its surface which might make it possible for some simple living things to live billions of years ago,” Professor Sanjeev Gupta said in a statement. Gupta described the new research as “a huge positive step” for the exploration of Mars.

In previous studies, scientists found evidence of water on Mars’ surface in other rocks. However, the new research provides the strongest evidence yet that Mars could have been habitable enough for life to continue.

【1】Researchers have found evidence that an ancient fresh water lake probably existed on ________.

A．the Earth

B．Venus

C．Mars

D．the Moon

【2】The following biological elements EXCEPT ________ have been found on Mars according to the analysis.

A．oxygen

B．nitrogen

C．hydrogen

D．carbon dioxide

【3】The underlined word “habitable” in the last paragraph probably means “________” in Chinese.

A．可居住的

B．无法生存的

C．习惯的

D．不可能的

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The researchers thought it impossible for a fresh water lake to exist on Mars.

B．Gupta thought of the new research as “a huge positive step” for the exploration of Mars.

C．Researchers have taken great efforts to find signs of ancient life on Mars.

D．The findings about the fresh water lake haven’t been published in the US Journal Science.

【5】On which column of a book can you find this passage?

A．Science.

B．Travelling.

C．Life.

D．Education.

【6】What is the passage mainly about?

A．How did the fresh water lake disappear on Mars?

B．Ancient life signs found on Mars.

C．An ancient fresh water lake on Mars.

D．The importance of water.

24、My name is Sally. When I was ten years old, I had a lot of friends. But looking back now, my best friend was someone I never really thought of as my friend, Rina.

Rina is four years older than I. She and I used to live in the same neighborhood. She went to an art and dance school in the city. Every afternoon when I played in the yard (院子) with my brother Kevin, I would see her walking home from the train station.

During the weekend, there was always something to do, thanks to Rina. She was good at drawing, so she would teach me and my brother how to draw. She also made up amazing games with interesting characters for us to play. Sometimes, Kevin taught Rina and me basketball and I taught them guitar.

One day, I was sitting in the yard. It was my birthday, but I was sad. Rina appeared and gave me a CD and a picture she had drawn for me. I was really surprised. To this day, I still don’t know how Rina remembered my birthday, but I’m glad she did.

Now I’m seventeen and I’m in high school. When I get home from the train station, I always see Alex, the little boy who lives down the street, and his sister Jenny. Sometimes I make up games for them to play. And sometimes I teach them how to draw. I’m happy to watch Alex and Jenny laugh and play. It reminds me of Rina, a girl who left many wonderful memories (回忆) in my heart.

25、根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为81—90的相应位置上。

Children are amazing! They pick up languages so naturally and easily. Have you ever why? It’s because of the way they learn.

Children learn by doing what comes naturally---they listen, copy, and talk. Let’s take a closer look at how children learn languages. Perhaps we can d【1】 a better, more natural way to learn English.

Listen as often as possible. When people talk to children, they often use s【2】 words that children can understand. That’s really important to the children’s language development. In order to learn, children must be able to understand what they hear. If they don’t understand it, it’s just m【3】 noise. Listen to radio or TV programs that use English at your level. If you r【4】that you can’t understand every word or sentence, don’t give up. Just pay attention to what you can understand. And listen as often as you can.

Be a Copycat. Children like to copy their parents, their friends or other r【5】. This helps teach them how to pronounce the language. As you listen to English, repeat what you hear as much as p【6】.

Use English to talk. O【7】 to those who usually practice grammar rules, some students use language to talk about things they are interested in. This helps them learn to express themselves d【8】. They don’t worry about their small vocabulary or poor grammar.

Students should also pay more attention to real c【9】. So try your best to communicate by talking with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students i【10】. Start an English discussion group and talk about music, movies and so on. Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can learn English better by correcting mistakes.
