Mst peple, regardless f intelligence r educatin, knw little abut memry. A revealing study by research psychlgists Daniel Simns and Christpher Chabris asked peple simple questins abut memry and then cmpared their answers with thse f experts in memry research. The results shw hw far remved frm reality the public’s beliefs abut memry are. Fr instance, t the questin “Is there a ‘vide camera’ in yur head?” 63 percent f peple surveyed strngly agreed that human memry “wrks like a vide camera, accurately recrding the events we see and hear s that we can review and inspect them later.” But nne f the experts agreed that memry wrks like a vide camera.
S hw des memry wrk? I prefer t describe it as smething like an ld man sitting by a campfire smewhere deep in yur brain. He means well and wants t help, but he desn’t shw yu yur past like sme wizard with a time entrance. The best he can d is tell yu stries. And like all gd strytellers, he edits fr impact, efficiency, functinality, and clarity. He tells yu what he assumes yu need t knw.
Smetimes he may even embellish the tale by adding a bit f flavr. Or the ld man might decide t leave ut a few things in rder t spare yu pain r shame. He als makes hnest mistakes—lts and lts f them. Smetimes he just gets cnfused r careless and leaves ut smething imprtant. He culd even include inaccurate infrmatin by accident.
In ther wrds, memry is assciative and cnstructive. It’s nt like files n a cmputer hard drive arranged by subject r placed in chrnlgical (时间的) rder. A memry will be put away and cnnected t ther memries r cncepts in ways that are nt necessarily practical r lgical. This is why a particular smell r sund may bring yu a memry even thugh it wasn’t imprtant in the riginal experience.
The human brain is still a mysterius universe in many ways, f curse. Frtunately, enugh has been revealed t ffer us sme guidance tward wiser and safer navigatins thrugh daily life. Yur memry is best thught f as helpful input.
4. Why des the authr mentin the questin “Is there a vide camera in yur head?” in paragraph 1?

B. T prve that mst peple knw little abut memry.

D. T give readers a vivid descriptin abut hw memry wrks.
5. What des the underlined wrd “embellish” prbably mean in the third paragraph?
A EnrichB. Repeat.C. Invent.D. Recall.
6. Why des the ld man smetimes leave ut smething imprtant?
A. Because he ften makes mistakes.B. Because he edits the stry fr charity.
C. Because he desn’t want yu t suffer.D. Because he includes inaccurate infrmatin.
7. What is mst likely t be talked abut in the next paragraph?
A. What ur brain is cmpsed f.B. What we still dn’t knw abut memry.
C. Hw the brain stres infrmatin.D. Hw we make better use f ur memry.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人类记忆工作方式。人类的记忆不同于录影机，它往往不会毫无偏差地记录下所发生的一切。为了保护我们自己不受伤害和折磨，我们往往会对我们记忆中所经历的事情做一些必要的改动。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“ Fr instance, t the questin “Is there a ‘vide camera’ in yur head? 63 percent f peple surveyed strngly agreed that human memry “wrks like a vide camera, accurately recrding the events we see and hear s that we can review and inspect them later.”(例如，在回答“你的脑袋里有一个‘摄像机’吗？”63%的受访者强烈认为，人类的记忆“就像一台摄像机，准确地记录我们看到和听到的事件，以便我们以后可以回顾和检查。”)”结合上文“The results shw hw far remved frm reality the public’s beliefs abut memry are. (结果显示，公众对记忆的看法与现实相差甚远)”推断，作者提及这个问题是为了证明大多数人对记忆知之甚少。故选B。
【5题详解】
词意猜测题。根据第三段中“Or the ld man might decide t leave ut a few things in rder t spare yu pain r shame.(或者，为了不让你痛苦或羞愧，老人可能会决定隐瞒一些事情。)”可知，r后的句子与划线词所在的句子构成选择关系，即要么增添，要么遗漏。此处的leave ut与划线词embellish相呼应。leave ut意为“遗漏”，其与划线词对应。故划线词与enrich为同义词。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Or the ld man might decide t leave ut a few things in rder t spare yu pain r shame.(或者，为了不让你痛苦或羞愧，老人可能会决定隐瞒一些事情)可知，这位老人为了不让你痛苦或者惭愧而删减一些东西。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据本文最后一段“Frtunately, enugh has been revealed t ffer us sme guidance tward wiser and safer navigatins thrugh daily life.(幸运的是，已经揭示了足够多的信息，为我们在日常生活中更明智、更安全的导航提供了一些指导)”以及“Yur memry is best thught f as helpful input.(你的记忆最好被认为是有帮助的输入)”可知，此处强调记忆在我们的生活中已经起到了有帮助的作用。由此推知，下文应该介绍我们可以如何利用记忆的特点帮助我们更好地生活。故选D。

As the threat against cral reefs has increased researchers are intrducing innvative methds t farm healthy crals mre efficiently.
Unlike the traditinal way f grwing crals in the cean, land-based nurseries nurture (培育) crals in tanks befre planting them nt reefs. While the peratins tend t cme with a high price tag and are mre labr intensive, they prvide an pprtunity t raise crals in a cntrlled envirnment where experimental methds culd be used and allws fr repairing reefs n a massive scale.
These methds include grwing crals in tanks n land, r using advanced techniques t prmte grwth rates and adaptability t the changing envirnment. Cral Vita, a fr-prfit cmpany in Grand Bahama, can nw grw crals up t 50 times faster than in nature by cutting crals int small pieces, a prcess knwn as “micrfragmentatin”.
The farm is als equipped with a high-tech aquaculture system, referred t by Cral Vita emplyees as the “life supprt system,” which can regulate water quality thrugh temperature, pH and ther adjustable settings. The system can be set up elsewhere with sme adjustments fr a regin’s specific cral. “It can be very plug and play, which is really imprtant fr large-scale restratin,” says Teicher, funder f Cral Vita.
The ptential fr large scale is critical t Cral Via’s business plan, which is cnnected t the idea r “selling restratin as a service”. In 2021, Cral Vita signed its first restratin cntracts with the Grand Bahama Prt Authrity. “There are abut 100 cuntries and regins with cral reefs,” Teicher says. “There need t be large-scale cral farms in every single ne f them. The amunt f funding in the nn-prfit space is a drp in the bucket, and ur mdel culd help make the field less dependent n dnatins.”
Marine bilgist David Vaughan pints ut that Cral Vita may have a cuple millin dllars in start-up csts and plants fewer than 5,000 t 10,000 crals a year. “That isn’t the ecnmic scale that we need t get this t,” Vaughan says, adding hundreds f thusands f peratins “csting cuple f dllars a cral” will be required.
12. In which aspect are new methds f cral restratin different frm traditinal ways?
A. Grwing crals can be mre ecnmical.B. Fewer wrkers are needed t grw crals.
C. Crals are grwn in artificial envirnments.D. New methds are mre envirnment friendly.
13. What des Teicher mean by saying “plug and play”?
A. The farm’s technlgy is advanced.B. The system is easy t perate.
C. Many places have brught in the system.D. He is cnfident f his farm’s future.
14. Why des Teicher chse the fr-prfit mdel?
A. Because the mdel can help him becme rich.
B. Because the mdel is required by the authrity.
C. Because there are fewer nn-prfit cmpanies.
D. Because dnatins are nt enugh fr restratin.
15. What is Vaughan’s attitude twards Cral Vita’s plan?
A. Apprving.B. Skeptical.C. Unclear.D. Tlerant.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了修复珊瑚礁的新方法。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Unlike the traditinal way f grwing crals in the cean, land-based nurseries nurture crals in tanks befre planting them nt reefs. While the peratins tend t cme with a high price tag and are mre labr intensive, they prvide an pprtunity t raise crals in a cntrlled envirnment where experimental methds culd be used and allws fr repairing reefs n a massive scale.(与在海洋中培育珊瑚的传统方式不同，陆基苗圃在将珊瑚种植在珊瑚礁上之前先在水箱中培育珊瑚。虽然这种操作往往价格高昂，劳动强度也更大，但它们提供了一个在可控环境中饲养珊瑚的机会，在那里可以使用实验方法，并允许大规模修复珊瑚礁)”可知新方法是在陆地上的水箱里种植珊瑚，不像传统方法在自然环境中种植。而是在生长在人工环境中。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“The system can be set up elsewhere with sme adjustments fr a regin’s specific cral. (该系统可以在其他地方设置，并针对某个地区的特定珊瑚进行一些调整)”推断，Teicher的话的意思是系统操作方便。plug-and-play为“即插即用的”之意。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“There need t be large-scale cral farms in every single ne f them. The amunt f funding in the nn-prfit space is a drp in the bucket, and ur mdel culd help make the field less dependent n dnatins.(每一个岛屿都需要大规模的珊瑚农场。非营利领域的资金规模只是九牛一毛，我们的模式可以帮助该领域减少对捐赠的依赖)”可推知所以慈善捐款对于大规模修复珊瑚礁是不够的，所以Teicher选择盈利模式。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Marine bilgist David Vaughan pints ut that Cral Vita may have a cuple millin dllars in start-up csts and plants fewer than 5,000 t 10,000 crals a year. “That isn’t the ecnmic scale that we need t get this t,” Vaughan says, adding hundreds f thusands f peratins “csting cuple f dllars a cral” will be required.(海洋生物学家大卫·沃恩(David Vaughan)指出，Cral Vita可能有数百万美元的启动成本，每年种植的珊瑚不到5000到10000个。“这不是我们需要的经济规模，”沃恩说，并补充说，将需要数十万次的操作，“每只珊瑚要花费几美元”)”Vaughan 先指出Cral Vita的启动资金可能有数百万，然而一年只种植了5000到10000株珊瑚。接着他说这不是我们想要得到的规模。因此Vaughan对Cral Vita的计划持有怀疑态度。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国过去十年在月球探索的成就。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：探索月球是我们中国人多年来追求的梦想，我们为过去十年取得的成就感到自豪。分析句子结构可知，空前是冠词the，所以空处应填名词，通读全文可知，此处指下文三个阶段分别取得的成就，用复数形式。故填achievements。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：2013年12月2日，作为三期探月工程第二阶段的关键部分，中国启动了嫦娥三号探月任务。分析句子结构可知，嫦娥3号，作为探月工程三个阶段中第二阶段的“一个”关键部分。表示泛指，用不定冠词，空后key为辅音音素开头，应该用a。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意：经过约12天的战斗，嫦娥三号探测器成功在月球土壤上软着陆，成为中国首个登月航天器。分析句子结构可知，此处修饰后面的谓语动词sft-landed，所以空处应填副词，success的副词形式是successfully。故填successfully。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国是近40年来第一个实现这一目标的国家。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词is，所以reach应该用非谓语形式，the first cuntry后面用通常动词不定式t reach作后置定语，也可以强调已经达成这样的目标，用动词不定式的完成式t have reached。故填t reach或者t have reached。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：2018年12月8日，中国向月球背面发射了第四枚月球探测器“嫦娥四号”，该探测器始终背对着地球。分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是非限制性定语从句，后面谓语动词faces缺少主语，即上文的the far side f the mn，因此用关系代词which。故填which。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在26天的旅程中，无人飞船在月球南部盆地软着陆，开始了人类对月球鲜为人知的背面的首次近距离观察。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词made，所以start应该用非谓语形式，它的逻辑主语是the unmanned spacecraft，两者间是主动关系，所以用现在分词，作结果状语。故填starting。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：该任务核心部件“玉兔二号”月球车到目前为止已经在月球上工作了近1400天，比任何其他月球车都要长。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语动词，所以wrk作本句谓语，根据后面的时间状语s far可知，谓语动词应该用现在完成时，主语是cre cmpnent为第三人称单数。故填has wrked。
【43题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：该任务的核心部件“玉兔二号”月球车到目前为止已经在月球上工作了近1400天，比任何其他月球车都要长。根据空后的than可知，空处应该用形容词的比较级。故填lnger。
【44题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意：2020年11月24日，嫦娥五号机器人探测器从文昌发射升空，并于12月1日登陆月球。根据前面的时间状语及后面并列的谓语动词时态可知，本题应该用一般过去时，并且嫦娥5号是“被发射”，因此用一般过去时的被动语态，主语the Chang’e 5 rbtic missin为第三人称单数。故填was launched
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：该任务于12月17日将1731克月球岩石和土壤带回地球。固定搭配bring...(back) t...“把……带回……”。故填t。

Fr years Grandpa taught me chess n a well-wrn chessbard, the bttm f which was cvered with dzens f names and dates.
“What’s this, Grandpa?” I asked ne day.
“These are the men frm Wrld War I, passing the time with me n the frnt line. Whenever smene beat me, I let them write their name n it.”
“This fellw, Sergeant Paul Ward, saved me frm German sldiers,” Grandpa pinted t a name, “and carried me ff the field. While bth f us were in hspital, he beat me at chess.”
He handed the chessbard t me saying, “I want yu t have it nw. That’s the way it is in life: we pass ur lve n t the next persn.
Sadly, it wasn’t lng befre Grandpa passed away.
Later I vlunteered t be the scial wrker fr a retirement cmmunity in a park, where I bserved elderly residents sitting alne silently, heads dwn.
Several stne tables in the park had chessbards imprinted n them. One day, I set up my chess pieces and waited.
An elderly man cautiusly apprached.
“Care fr a game?” I cheerfully inquired.
The man smiled weakly and sat dwn.
“Yur mve... um, didn’t catch yur name.”
“Paul,” he said.
“Yur mve, Paul.”
He hesitated, as if nt sure hw t prceed. I tried nt being aggressive in my play, but nly delayed his defeat.
He sighed, “It’s been lng since I played. Will yu cme tmrrw?”
“Yes, and every day after that.”
The next day when I arrived, Paul was already there, playing anther elderly gentleman. I set up my pieces n a table waiting fr thers.
Sn ur play extended t a merry club f chess-playing senirs, twenty peple shwing up each day and many mre watching.
I didn’t played Paul after ur first game but he came every day playing chess with thers.
We ran shrt f chessbards, s I decided t bring Grandpa’s.

He had excellent perfrmance, emplying an effective planning methd that helped him cme up with a gd strategy in almst any psitin. A few minutes later, I was defeated/checkmated. Lking me in the eye, he swept a trembling hand ver the bard and said, “Befre yu came alng, I’d had my life given up. But since I played with yu, I’ve recnnected with ld friends and made new nes. The chess club may have saved my life.”
When I tld Paul Grandpa’s custm abut this chessbard and asked him t write his name n the back, he smiled and said, “N need.” He went n, “My Last name’s Ward. Paul Ward. It’s n the upper right-hand crner f the chessbard. Find it.” I flipped the chessbard ver and there it was: Sergeant Paul Ward 6/10/44. What a cincidence!

【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一开始，我就看到Paul不仅棋艺有了提高，精神状态也有了变化。”可知，第一段可描写Paul打败作者和Paul讲述下棋给他所带来的积极的影响。

Mst peple, regardless f intelligence r educatin, knw little abut memry. A revealing study by research psychlgists Daniel Simns and Christpher Chabris asked peple simple questins abut memry and then cmpared their answers with thse f experts in memry research. The results shw hw far remved frm reality the public’s beliefs abut memry are. Fr instance, t the questin “Is there a ‘vide camera’ in yur head?” 63 percent f peple surveyed strngly agreed that human memry “wrks like a vide camera, accurately recrding the events we see and hear s that we can review and inspect them later.” But nne f the experts agreed that memry wrks like a vide camera.

And like all gd strytellers, he edits fr impact, efficiency, functinality, and clarity. He tells yu what he assumes yu need t knw.
Smetimes he may even embellish the tale by adding a bit f flavr. Or the ld man might decide t leave ut a few things in rder t spare yu pain r shame. He als makes hnest mistakes—lts and lts f them. Smetimes he just gets cnfused r careless and leaves ut smething imprtant. He culd even include inaccurate infrmatin by accident.
In ther wrds, memry is assciative and cnstructive. It’s nt like files n a cmputer hard drive arranged by subject r placed in chrnlgical (时间的) rder. A memry will be put away and cnnected t ther memries r cncepts in ways that are nt necessarily practical r lgical. This is why a particular smell r sund may bring yu a memry even thugh it wasn’t imprtant in the riginal experience.
The human brain is still a mysterius universe in many ways, f curse. Frtunately, enugh has been revealed t ffer us sme guidance tward wiser and safer navigatins thrugh daily life. Yur memry is best thught f as helpful input.

As the threat against cral reefs has increased researchers are intrducing innvative methds t farm healthy crals mre efficiently.
Unlike the traditinal way f grwing crals in the cean, land-based nurseries nurture (培育) crals in tanks befre planting them nt reefs. While the peratins tend t cme with a high price tag and are mre labr intensive, they prvide an pprtunity t raise crals in a cntrlled envirnment where experimental methds culd be used and allws fr repairing reefs n a massive scale.
These methds include grwing crals in tanks n land, r using advanced techniques t prmte grwth rates and adaptability t the changing envirnment. Cral Vita, a fr-prfit cmpany in Grand Bahama, can nw grw crals up t 50 times faster than in nature by cutting crals int small pieces, a prcess knwn as “micrfragmentatin”.
The farm is als equipped with a high-tech aquaculture system, referred t by Cral Vita emplyees as the “life supprt system,” which can regulate water quality thrugh temperature, pH and ther adjustable settings. The system can be set up elsewhere with sme adjustments fr a regin’s specific cral. “It can be very plug and play, which is really imprtant fr large-scale restratin,” says Teicher, funder f Cral Vita.
The ptential fr large scale is critical t Cral Via’s business plan, which is cnnected t the idea r “selling restratin as a service”. In 2021, Cral Vita signed its first restratin cntracts with the Grand Bahama Prt Authrity. “There are abut 100 cuntries and regins with cral reefs,” Teicher says. “There need t be large-scale cral farms in every single ne f them. The amunt f funding in the nn-prfit space is a drp in the bucket, and ur mdel culd help make the field less dependent n dnatins.”
Marine bilgist David Vaughan pints ut that Cral Vita may have a cuple millin dllars in start-up csts and plants fewer than 5,000 t 10,000 crals a year. “That isn’t the ecnmic scale that we need t get this t,” Vaughan says, adding hundreds f thusands f peratins “csting cuple f dllars a cral” will be required.
12. In which aspect are new methds f cral restratin different frm traditinal ways?
A. Grwing crals can be mre ecnmical.B. Fewer wrkers are needed t grw crals.
C. Crals are grwn in artificial envirnments.D. New methds are mre envirnment friendly.
13. What des Teicher mean by saying “plug and play”?
A. The farm’s technlgy is advanced.B. The system is easy t perate.
C. Many places have brught in the system.D. He is cnfident f his farm’s future.
14. Why des Teicher chse the fr-prfit mdel?
A. Because the mdel can help him becme rich.
B. Because the mdel is required by the authrity.
C. Because there are fewer nn-prfit cmpanies.
D. Because dnatins are nt enugh fr restratin.
15. What is Vaughan’s attitude twards Cral Vita’s plan?
A. Apprving.B. Skeptical.C. Unclear.D. Tlerant.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了修复珊瑚礁的新方法。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Unlike the traditinal way f grwing crals in the cean, land-based nurseries nurture crals in tanks befre planting them nt reefs. While the peratins tend t cme with a high price tag and are mre labr intensive, they prvide an pprtunity t raise crals in a cntrlled envirnment where experimental methds culd be used and allws fr repairing reefs n a massive scale.(与在海洋中培育珊瑚的传统方式不同，陆基苗圃在将珊瑚种植在珊瑚礁上之前先在水箱中培育珊瑚。虽然这种操作往往价格高昂，劳动强度也更大，但它们提供了一个在可控环境中饲养珊瑚的机会，在那里可以使用实验方法，并允许大规模修复珊瑚礁)”可知新方法是在陆地上的水箱里种植珊瑚，不像传统方法在自然环境中种植。而是在生长在人工环境中。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“The system can be set up elsewhere with sme adjustments fr a regin’s specific cral. (该系统可以在其他地方设置，并针对某个地区的特定珊瑚进行一些调整)”推断，Teicher的话的意思是系统操作方便。plug-and-play为“即插即用的”之意。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“There need t be large-scale cral farms in every single ne f them. The amunt f funding in the nn-prfit space is a drp in the bucket, and ur mdel culd help make the field less dependent n dnatins.(每一个岛屿都需要大规模的珊瑚农场。非营利领域的资金规模只是九牛一毛，我们的模式可以帮助该领域减少对捐赠的依赖)”可推知所以慈善捐款对于大规模修复珊瑚礁是不够的，所以Teicher选择盈利模式。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Marine bilgist David Vaughan pints ut that Cral Vita may have a cuple millin dllars in start-up csts and plants fewer than 5,000 t 10,000 crals a year. “That isn’t the ecnmic scale that we need t get this t,” Vaughan says, adding hundreds f thusands f peratins “csting cuple f dllars a cral” will be required.(海洋生物学家大卫·沃恩(David Vaughan)指出，Cral Vita可能有数百万美元的启动成本，每年种植的珊瑚不到5000到10000个。“这不是我们需要的经济规模，”沃恩说，并补充说，将需要数十万次的操作，“每只珊瑚要花费几美元”)”Vaughan 先指出Cral Vita的启动资金可能有数百万，然而一年只种植了5000到10000株珊瑚。接着他说这不是我们想要得到的规模。因此Vaughan对Cral Vita的计划持有怀疑态度。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国过去十年在月球探索的成就。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：探索月球是我们中国人多年来追求的梦想，我们为过去十年取得的成就感到自豪。分析句子结构可知，空前是冠词the，所以空处应填名词，通读全文可知，此处指下文三个阶段分别取得的成就，用复数形式。故填achievements。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：2013年12月2日，作为三期探月工程第二阶段的关键部分，中国启动了嫦娥三号探月任务。分析句子结构可知，嫦娥3号，作为探月工程三个阶段中第二阶段的“一个”关键部分。表示泛指，用不定冠词，空后key为辅音音素开头，应该用a。故填a。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意：经过约12天的战斗，嫦娥三号探测器成功在月球土壤上软着陆，成为中国首个登月航天器。分析句子结构可知，此处修饰后面的谓语动词sft-landed，所以空处应填副词，success的副词形式是successfully。故填successfully。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国是近40年来第一个实现这一目标的国家。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词is，所以reach应该用非谓语形式，the first cuntry后面用通常动词不定式t reach作后置定语，也可以强调已经达成这样的目标，用动词不定式的完成式t have reached。故填t reach或者t have reached。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：2018年12月8日，中国向月球背面发射了第四枚月球探测器“嫦娥四号”，该探测器始终背对着地球。分析句子结构可知，空处引导的是非限制性定语从句，后面谓语动词faces缺少主语，即上文的the far side f the mn，因此用关系代词which。故填which。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在26天的旅程中，无人飞船在月球南部盆地软着陆，开始了人类对月球鲜为人知的背面的首次近距离观察。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词made，所以start应该用非谓语形式，它的逻辑主语是the unmanned spacecraft，两者间是主动关系，所以用现在分词，作结果状语。故填starting。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：该任务核心部件“玉兔二号”月球车到目前为止已经在月球上工作了近1400天，比任何其他月球车都要长。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语动词，所以wrk作本句谓语，根据后面的时间状语s far可知，谓语动词应该用现在完成时，主语是cre cmpnent为第三人称单数。故填has wrked。
【43题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：该任务的核心部件“玉兔二号”月球车到目前为止已经在月球上工作了近1400天，比任何其他月球车都要长。根据空后的than可知，空处应该用形容词的比较级。故填lnger。
【44题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意：2020年11月24日，嫦娥五号机器人探测器从文昌发射升空，并于12月1日登陆月球。根据前面的时间状语及后面并列的谓语动词时态可知，本题应该用一般过去时，并且嫦娥5号是“被发射”，因此用一般过去时的被动语态，主语the Chang’e 5 rbtic missin为第三人称单数。故填was launched
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：该任务于12月17日将1731克月球岩石和土壤带回地球。固定搭配bring...(back) t...“把……带回……”。故填t。

Fr years Grandpa taught me chess n a well-wrn chessbard, the bttm f which was cvered with dzens f names and dates.
“What’s this, Grandpa?” I asked ne day.
“These are the men frm Wrld War I, passing the time with me n the frnt line. Whenever smene beat me, I let them write their name n it.”
“This fellw, Sergeant Paul Ward, saved me frm German sldiers,” Grandpa pinted t a name, “and carried me ff the field. While bth f us were in hspital, he beat me at chess.”
He handed the chessbard t me saying, “I want yu t have it nw. That’s the way it is in life: we pass ur lve n t the next persn.
Sadly, it wasn’t lng befre Grandpa passed away.
Later I vlunteered t be the scial wrker fr a retirement cmmunity in a park, where I bserved elderly residents sitting alne silently, heads dwn.
Several stne tables in the park had chessbards imprinted n them. One day, I set up my chess pieces and waited.
An elderly man cautiusly apprached.
“Care fr a game?” I cheerfully inquired.
The man smiled weakly and sat dwn.
“Yur mve... um, didn’t catch yur name.”
“Paul,” he said.
“Yur mve, Paul.”
He hesitated, as if nt sure hw t prceed. I tried nt being aggressive in my play, but nly delayed his defeat.
He sighed, “It’s been lng since I played. Will yu cme tmrrw?”
“Yes, and every day after that.”
The next day when I arrived, Paul was already there, playing anther elderly gentleman. I set up my pieces n a table waiting fr thers.
Sn ur play extended t a merry club f chess-playing senirs, twenty peple shwing up each day and many mre watching.
I didn’t played Paul after ur first game but he came every day playing chess with thers.

【答案】One pssible versin:
Once we began, I saw Paul nt nly have his chess skills refined but als shw a change f mental state. He had excellent perfrmance, emplying an effective planning methd that helped him cme up with a gd strategy in almst any psitin. A few minutes later, I was defeated/checkmated. Lking me in the eye, he swept a trembling hand ver the bard and said, “Befre yu came alng, I’d had my life given up. But since I played with yu, I’ve recnnected with ld friends and made new nes. The chess club may have saved my life.”
When I tld Paul Grandpa’s custm abut this chessbard and asked him t write his name n the back, he smiled and said, “N need.” He went n, “My Last name’s Ward. Paul Ward. It’s n the upper right-hand crner f the chessbard. Find it.” I flipped the chessbard ver and there it was: Sergeant Paul Ward 6/10/44. What a cincidence! At that mment, Grandpa’s wrds flded ver me — “This fellw … carried me ff the field.” Paul Ward was the very sldier wh had saved my grandfather’s life.

【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一开始，我就看到Paul不仅棋艺有了提高，精神状态也有了变化。”可知，第一段可描写Paul打败作者和Paul讲述下棋给他所带来的积极的影响。
②由第二段首句内容“当我告诉Paul爷爷关于这个棋盘的风俗，并请他在棋盘的背面写上自己的名字时，Paul笑着说:“不用了。””可知，第二段可描写作者是如何发现Paul就是以前救了爷爷的那个人。
