13．（2022•安徽）The night sky is our earliest library.There，we stored our knowledge，and passed it down around the fire，before we invented the written word.
I remember going to the local university for an astronomy（天文学） night when I was a child.That night，I saw Saturn，one of the planets，and its rings with my own eyes for the first time.The rings shone bright against the blackness of space and suddenly the universe（宇宙） wasn't something that you only read about or imagined in your head.It was right there，and you were a part of it.That moment is priceless.
While starlight is good，light pollution here on Earth can be a real problem.For the past 200 years or so，we have used too much electricity（电） to make the night brighter.However，brighter doesn't usually mean better，especially when a lot of that light shines up into the sky where no one needs it.
Luckily，some cities have taken actions，like setting up new downward﹣directing lights along the streets.I hope that more cities will join in and continue the practice of controlling unnecessary lighting，so that more of us can watch the night sky in a way humans have for thousands of years.

（1）What is the night sky compared to？ 　 　
A.A book.
B.The earth.

C.More personal space.
D.A better education.

14．（2022•安徽）A team of scientists are carrying out a project at the University of Greenwich in London.They are trying to find ways to make food on Mars（火星） in the future.The project is called Feeding Mars. It tries to use water，fish and fish waste to grow fruit and vegetables on Mars.
It would take at least 21 months to reach Mars，learn about its surface and return to Earth.So it would be a big help if the spacemen could grow fresh food on Mars itself.
Farming on Mars，however，will be very hard.There's plenty of water that could be taken from ice just below the surface，but the land on Mars is missing the nutrients（养分） that living things need.The team say that they could solve the problem by growing plants and fish together.Fish waste can then be used to provide nutrients for plants.
"It is expected that you can grow lots of food，such as vegetables，salads，teas and medicinal plants on Mars，" said Dr Benz Kotzen，who leads the project. "You can even harvest（捕获） fish for food then."

（1）What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 1 refer to（指的是）？

D.The planet.

18．（2018•安徽）Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you，and self﹣driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves？Although it might sound a little far from you，living in a "smart" city like this could happen sooner than you think．
Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries，while completely new cities are being built．One such place is the city of Songdo．Every home there will have a "telepresence" system（远程遥控系统）﹣ allowing users to control the heating and locks，take part in video meetings，and receive education，healthcare and government services．Around the city，escalators（自动扶梯） will only move when someone is on them，and offices and schools will all be connected to the system．
The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco．In fact，technology companies around the world such as IBM，Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business．
About 75% of the world's population will live in cities by 2050，so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems． " Making cities smarter is one way out，and I think this will in turn make cities greener， "said Dan Hill，head of a research company．

19．（2019•安徽）Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then given up？ If you answered yes， you should try a new kind of exercise： aquatic （水中的） exercise． Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land， but you do it in a swimming pool． More and more people are trying aquatic exercise．
Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land． Why？ You weigh about 90% less in the pool． It is better for your knees than running or walking． Water is about 1， 000 times thicker and heavier than air． To move through the water， your body has to work four times as hard． As a result， you can burn more calories （卡路里）．
In fact， most people say they feel more relaxed in the water． They stop thinking about the things that make them worried． They feel in control of their bodies． The cool， quiet environment makes them feel good．
But what if you are afraid of the water？ No problem! There is nothing to worry about． Aquatic exercise is safe and
easy to learn． It doesn't require any special skills． You don't even need to know how to swim． Aquatic exercise is for everyone．

20．（2020•安徽）In the past， I thought I was terrible at many things， such as math， French and science． Although I was good at drawing， I wasn't the best in my art class．I wanted to find out who I was，what I liked，and how I could do it better．So， that winter，I took a notebook and kept my diary． When I filled that notebook，I started another one， and then another．
Keeping a diary helps a lot． Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel better． It helps people remember what once happened such as dreams， friendships and happiness． Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over them and move on． Personally， I learn better about myself and my relationships with others by keeping a diary．For example，when I am fighting with my dad， I'll try writing from his point and it works! If I want to compare myself with my classmates．I'll write something like，"I might not have clear skin， but I like my eyes．"
Right about now， you might be thinking： it sounds great， but I'm not a good writer； or I'd love to keep a diary， but my handwriting is terrible． Don't worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework ﹣there are no rules， so do whatever feels best．

13．（2022•安徽）The night sky is our earliest library.There，we stored our knowledge，and passed it down around the fire，before we invented the written word.
I remember going to the local university for an astronomy（天文学） night when I was a child.That night，I saw Saturn，one of the planets，and its rings with my own eyes for the first time.The rings shone bright against the blackness of space and suddenly the universe（宇宙） wasn't something that you only read about or imagined in your head.It was right there，and you were a part of it.That moment is priceless.
While starlight is good，light pollution here on Earth can be a real problem.For the past 200 years or so，we have used too much electricity（电） to make the night brighter.However，brighter doesn't usually mean better，especially when a lot of that light shines up into the sky where no one needs it.
Luckily，some cities have taken actions，like setting up new downward﹣directing lights along the streets.I hope that more cities will join in and continue the practice of controlling unnecessary lighting，so that more of us can watch the night sky in a way humans have for thousands of years.

14．（2022•安徽）A team of scientists are carrying out a project at the University of Greenwich in London.They are trying to find ways to make food on Mars（火星） in the future.The project is called Feeding Mars. It tries to use water，fish and fish waste to grow fruit and vegetables on Mars.
It would take at least 21 months to reach Mars，learn about its surface and return to Earth.So it would be a big help if the spacemen could grow fresh food on Mars itself.
Farming on Mars，however，will be very hard.There's plenty of water that could be taken from ice just below the surface，but the land on Mars is missing the nutrients（养分） that living things need.The team say that they could solve the problem by growing plants and fish together.Fish waste can then be used to provide nutrients for plants.
