Rss was brn n August 9,1908,in the state f Oklahma.She was the great-granddaughter f Jhn Rss,the lngest-serving⑨ chief f the Cherkee Natin.Her wrk is cnsidered imprtant t the early stages f the age f space travel.
Rss shwed special abilities in math and science frm an early age⑩.As a student,she develped an interest in aviatin,r the practice f flying aircraft.She went n t earn a master’s degree⑪ in mathematics frm Clrad State Teachers Cllege,nw called the University f Nrthern Clrad.
During Wrld War Ⅱ,Rss began wrking fr the Lckheed Aircraft Crpratin as a mathematician.She earned a special certificatin in the field frm the University f Califrnia in 1949.Rss was later chsen t jin Lckheed’s tp-secret Skunk Wrks team that wrked n aircraft designs.The name refers t a grup that is permitted t wrk independently⑫ n advanced prjects.She was the nly female engineer amng the team’s 40 members.
Early n⑬,she researched defense systems.By the late 1950s,her wrk centered n⑭ satellites and a series f space rckets called Agenda.The rckets were extremely imprtant in the 1960s during the Apll mn prgram.
Rss als helped develp early design ideas fr space travel between planets,including flyby space flights t study Venus and Mars.Rss retired frm Lckheed in 1973.But she cntinued t give talks at high schls and clleges t encurage mre wmen and Native Americans t study engineering.She died in 2008,a few mnths befre her 100th birthday.
Many celebrated Rss’ life n scial media.Twitter user Aarn Perez,fr example,wrte, “Mary Rss was an engineer wh pineered in the field f satellites.I never wuld have knwn if it wasn’t fr the ddle.Wmen engineers deserve mre recgnitin⑮.”

If yu culd travel in time,where wuld yu g?Perhaps yu wuld watch an riginal perfrmance f a Shakespeare’s play in Elizabethan England?What abut hanging ut with Lazi in the Spring and Autumn Perid?Or maybe yu’d vyage far ahead f the present day t see what the future hlds.
The pssibility f time travel is indeed appealing⑯.Stries explring the subject have been arund fr hundreds f years.Perhaps the best knwn example is science fictin nvel.The Time Machine,which was written by and published in 1895 fr the first time.It was adapted int⑰ at least tw feature films f the same name,as well as tw televisin versins,and a large number f cmic bk adaptatins.It is generally credited with the ppularizatin f the cncept f time travel using a vehicle that allws an peratr t travel purpsefully⑱ and selectively.The term “time machine”,cined by Wells,is nw universally used t refer t a vehicle transprting peple int the far future.
But culd time travel actually be pssible?Sme scientists say yes,in thery.They suggest using cracks in time and space called “wrmhles”,which culd be used as shrtcuts t ther perids.Einstein’s thery f relativity allws time travel in extreme circumstances.And British physicist Stephen Hawking says yu culd travel int the future with a really fast spaceship ging at nearly the speed f light.Thugh building such a spaceship wuld f curse be n simple task.
Even if yu culd travel int the past,there is smething called the “grandfather paradx”.It asks what wuld happen if a time traveler were t g back in time and have his wn grandfather killed fr sme reasn,and therefre prevent himself frm being brn.If the time traveler wasn’t brn,hw wuld he travel back in time?
And wuld yu really like t visit the future?In ’ bk,the main character travels int distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.He then vyages 30 millin years int the future where the nly living thing is a black bject with tentacles(触角).
If that’s what’s in stre⑲,maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.
12.The nvel The Time Machine mentined in Paragraph 2 aims t shw .
A.the cntributin f B.the stry’s different features
C.the lng histry f time travelD.peple’s interest in time machine
13.Einstein’s and Hawking’s theries .
A.suggest the pssibility t invent the time machine
B.push the inventin f the first spaceship
C.have prved wrng by sme time travelers
D.have similarities in many ways
14.In Paragraph 4,“grandfather paradx” prbably refers t the idea that .
A.the traveler is prevented frm meeting his grandfather
B.the grandfather’s death makes the traveler’s birth impssible
C.the traveler ges back in time t seek fr his grandfather
D.the reunin f the traveler and his grandfather brings happiness
15.Accrding t the passage,what is prbably the authr’s attitude twards time travel?
A.Skeptical.B.Unclear.C.Supprtive.D.Uncncerned.
Ⅱ.七选五
We autmatically⑳ assume that as adults,we’re wiser than when we were children.Hwever,actually we can learn a lt frm ur childhd self.Fr example,we can learn t develp ptimism abut the future.D yu remember hw excited yu used t be just befre Christmas? 16 Reintrduce that childlike wnder int ur daily experiences.
We can learn t dream big and imagine the impssible.Hw ften have yu heard a child say smething like “One day,I’m ging t be an astrnaut”?Our adult minds immediately laugh at this idea and think abut all the lgical reasns as t why this might never happen. 17 We minimize ur chances f attaining what we dream abut.It is kay t dream big just as ur childhd self did.
18 Our childhd self lked at pssibilities and believed we culd achieve them successfully.If we wanted t build a tree huse,we’d g abut thinking abut hw t make it happen instead f fcusing n all the reasns it might nt happen.In this way we can fill ur life with pssibilities rather than regrets.
We can learn t be playful and silly smetimes. 19 Children spend a large amunt f time escaping frm reality t mess abut and have fun.Make time fr yur childhd self t cme ut and play.Run arund the garden,wear a silly hat r spend time laughing. 20
A.Dn’t imagine things culd g wrng.
B.We can learn t hld a “can d” attitude.
C.That feeling f great jy is hard t beat.
D.Mst children tend t think in a psitive way.
E.All f these activities can make us feel happy and alive.
F.We emply self-limiting beliefs withut even realizing it.
G.All wrk and n play makes a persn very dull and upset.

阅读理解+七选五限时组合练7
Ⅰ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇广告。文章介绍了当你到悉尼求学的时候,选择在哪儿居住也许是你要做的最大的决定之一。
1.A 细节理解题。根据“Temprary arrival accmmdatin”部分中“Befre yu mve t Sydney,we recmmend that yu bk a temprary place t stay”可知应选A项。
2.D 细节理解题。根据“On-campus residences (self-catered)”部分的“These residences prvide mdern single-study rms with large cmmn living,learning and study spaces,shared kitchens,a theatre,gyms,sundprfed music rms,art studis,sky lunges and rftp gardens.”可知,生活在QMB的学生是可以进入体育馆的,故D项正确。
3.A 推理判断题。由“Off-campus living”部分第一句 “Mre than 90 percent f ur students live ff campus.”可推知,超过90%的学生选择外宿。故A项正确。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了在橡树公园高中,老师让学生走出教室,告诉学生老师都很欣赏他们,结果同学们感到他们每个人都是特别的。
4.A 词义猜测题。画线词所在句是媒体报道参加有关活动的信息,其中提到了一位老师,由此可以猜测出,psed应表示“提出,主张”之意。故选A项。
5.A 推理判断题。根据第六段中“Initially when we pulled the kids ut,they all thught they were in truble”可知一开始被叫出教室时,孩子们都认为自己有麻烦了。由此可以推断:学生们感到紧张。故选A项。
6.C 细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“McSparin says she gt the idea fr the prject after attending a prfessinal develpment wrkshp this summer called ‘the pwer f psitivity’.”可知,McSparin是参加一次专业发展研讨会之后有了启发。故选C项。
7.B 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“I like the idea f letting students knw they are appreciated,because we d appreciate them.”以及最后两段内容可以推断:每个人都需要被欣赏。故选B项。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。谷歌搜索引擎周四纪念了美国第一位原住民女工程师诞生110周年。谷歌在其主页上为玛丽·罗斯(Mary Rss)做了一个特殊的谷歌徽标涂鸦。
8.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Her wrk is cnsidered imprtant t the early stages f the age f space travel.”可知,谷歌庆祝玛丽·罗斯110岁生日,因为她为太空旅行做出了很多贡献。故C项正确。
9.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“By the late 1950s,her wrk centered n satellites and a series f space rckets called Agenda.”可知,在20世纪中期,玛丽·罗斯致力于Agenda项目。故A项正确。
10.B 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Rss shwed special abilities in math and science frm an early age.”及下文对玛丽·罗斯所取得的成就的介绍可知,玛丽·罗斯是一位有才华和创造力的杰出工程师。故B项正确。
11.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I never wuld have knwn if it wasn’t fr the ddle.Wmen engineers deserve mre recgnitin.(如果不是谷歌徽标涂鸦,我永远不会知道这些。女性工程师应该得到更大认可。)”可推知,我们应该更多地关注女工程师。故C项正确。
【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。人类一直对时间旅行很感兴趣。从理论上来说,时间旅行是可以的。但是,从另一个角度而言,时间旅行未必是好事。作者认为我们还是生活在现在好。
12.D 细节理解题。根据第二段可知,时间旅行的可能性确实很吸引人。探索这个主题的故事已经有几百年了。小说《时光机器》就是一例。由此可知,在第二段中提到这部小说就是想表明人们对时间旅行的兴趣。故D项正确。
13.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Einstein’s thery f relativity allws time travel in extreme circumstances.And British physicist Stephen Hawking says yu culd travel int the future with a really fast spaceship ging at nearly the speed f light.”可知,爱因斯坦的相对论使得在极端情况下可以进行时间旅行。英国物理学家霍金认为人们可以用一艘非常快的宇宙飞船以接近光速的速度旅行到未来。由此可知,霍金和爱因斯坦的理论证明了时间旅行的可能性。故A项正确。
14.B 细节理解题。“grandfather paradx”提出一个问题:如果一个时间旅游者回到过去,他的祖父由于某种原因死亡,那么时间旅行者就无法出生。如果时间旅游者没有出生,他怎么会回到过去? 故“grandfather paradx”的观点就是:祖父死亡导致时间旅游者无法出生。故B项正确。
15.A 推理判断题。第三段提到从理论上来说,时间旅行是可能的。但第四段提到,“祖父悖论”使得时间旅行有可能不能实现。第五段以H·G·威尔斯的书为例,表明即使回到过去也有可能遭遇险境。因此在最后一段作者提到:也许我们还是活在当下更好。由此可知,作者对时间旅行存在怀疑。故A项正确。
Ⅱ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了成年人应该向孩子们学习的一些好的品质。
16.C 根据空前“D yu remember hw excited yu used t be just befre Christmas?”这一句可知,C项“那种巨大的喜悦的感觉是很难掩饰的。”符合语境。故C项正确。
