Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet, the Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life there could be like.
At present, our spacecraft are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars—it would take months. With the development of technology, by the year 2100, the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecraft that travel at the speed of light! However, the spacecraft would travel really fast, so the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable. Many people would feel ill.
Humans can’t live without water, air or food. So far, nobody knows whether there would be enough water or air on Mars for people. Moreover, scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars. Food would most probably be in the form of pills (药片) and would not be so tasty.
Compared with life on the earth, life on Mars would be better in some ways. People would have more space. They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms. Also, robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax. There would probably be no schools on Mars. Every student would study at online schools with “e-teachers”.
Life on Mars would be interesting and challenging (有挑战性的). However, it may take hundreds of years to make it true. So the most important thing we need to do now is to protect our beautiful blue planet—the Earth!
51. People would move to Mars because ________.
A. flying to Mars would be fun B. plants could grow better there
C. the earth is crowded and polluted D. they want to challenge themselves
52. The underlined word “spacecraft” means ________.
A. plane B. spaceships C. space stations D. hot-air balloons
53. What would the flight to Mars be like by the year 2100
A. Slow and boring. B. Fast and enjoyable.
C. Slow but comfortable. D. Fast but uncomfortable.
54. What can we learn from the passage
A. People would be busy with work on Mars.
B. There would be enough water and air on Mars for people.
C. Food on Mars would he more delicious than that on the earth.
D. The writer thinks living on Mars would be full of challenges.
55. What’s the best title for the passage
A. Life on Mars B. Food on Mars C. Schools on Mars D. Environment on the Earth
C
Everyone gets sad. Sad feelings can happen pretty often. More than half of teenagers go through a sad period at least once a month. When you’re sad, it feels like it will last forever. However, feelings of sadness usually don’t last very long—a few hours, or maybe a day or two.
When you’re sad, the world seems dark and unfriendly. Many times, you cry, and it’s hard to stop. Crying usually makes you feel better. When sadness starts to go away, it feels like a heavy blanket is being lifted (移开) from your heart.
If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression (抑郁症). Children who have depression may not know it. Often, it’s a parent or a teacher who notices changes in children’s behavior.
When depression happens, it’s very important for children to receive treatment (治疗). When they do, they can get better quickly. Sometimes treatment includes talking to someone who knows all about depression. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both of these things are used.
If you think you have depression, or you just have sadness that simply will not go away, it is important to talk to an adult about it. This person can help you find the right type of treatment. Many cities also have mental health hot lines that are listed in the phone book. There is always somebody who can help.
56. How long may normal sadness last according to the passage
A. A few days. B. A few years. C. A few weeks D. A few months.
57. How may you feel when sadness begins to go away
A. Ill. B. Lonely. C. Nervous. D. Relaxed.
58. Who may be the likely person to notice that you are suffering from depression
A. A doctor B. A stranger. C. Your mother. D. Your deskmate.
59. When you are suffering from depression, you should do the following things EXCEPT ________.
A. live alone B. call hot lines C. take medicine D. talk with your doctor
60. On which part of a website can we find this passage
A. Culture. B. Health. C. Lost and Found. D. Food and Drink.

Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet, the Earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life there could be like.
At present, our spacecraft are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars—it would take months. With the development of technology, by the year 2100, the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecraft that travel at the speed of light! However, the spacecraft would travel really fast, so the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable. Many people would feel ill.
Humans can’t live without water, air or food. So far, nobody knows whether there would be enough water or air on Mars for people. Moreover, scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars. Food would most probably be in the form of pills (药片) and would not be so tasty.
Compared with life on the earth, life on Mars would be better in some ways. People would have more space. They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms. Also, robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax. There would probably be no schools on Mars. Every student would study at online schools with “e-teachers”.
Life on Mars would be interesting and challenging (有挑战性的). However, it may take hundreds of years to make it true. So the most important thing we need to do now is to protect our beautiful blue planet—the Earth!
51. People would move to Mars because ________.
A. flying to Mars would be fun B. plants could grow better there
C. the earth is crowded and polluted D. they want to challenge themselves
52. The underlined word “spacecraft” means ________.
A. plane B. spaceships C. space stations D. hot-air balloons
53. What would the flight to Mars be like by the year 2100
A. Slow and boring. B. Fast and enjoyable.
C. Slow but comfortable. D. Fast but uncomfortable.
54 What can we learn from the passage
A. People would be busy with work on Mars.
B. There would be enough water and air on Mars for people.
C Food on Mars would he more delicious than that on the earth.
D. The writer thinks living on Mars would be full of challenges.
55. What’s the best title for the passage
A. Life on Mars B. Food on Mars C. Schools on Mars D. Environment on the Earth
【答案】51. C 52. B 53. D 54. D 55. A

Everyone gets sad. Sad feelings can happen pretty often. More than half of teenagers go through a sad period at least once a month. When you’re sad, it feels like it will last forever. However, feelings of sadness usually don’t last very long—a few hours, or maybe a day or two.
When you’re sad, the world seems dark and unfriendly. Many times, you cry, and it’s hard to stop. Crying usually makes you feel better. When sadness starts to go away, it feels like a heavy blanket is being lifted (移开) from your heart.
If sad feelings go on for too long, it’s called depression (抑郁症). Children who have depression may not know it. Often, it’s a parent or a teacher who notices changes in children’s behavior.
When depression happens, it’s very important for children to receive treatment (治疗). When they do, they can get better quickly. Sometimes treatment includes talking to someone who knows all about depression. Sometimes it means taking medicine. Sometimes both of these things are used.
If you think you have depression, or you just have sadness that simply will not go away, it is important to talk to an adult about it. This person can help you find the right type of treatment. Many cities also have mental health hot lines that are listed in the phone book. There is always somebody who can help.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,文章讲述阿伦和约翰各自的烦恼,并给出相应的建议。
【71题详解】
“I want to have more exercise”表达“我想做更多的锻炼”。第一段第一句话“I would like to take more exercise”中,动词短语“ want to do”与“would like to do”意义相近,表示“想要做某事”。动词短语“have more exercise”与“take more exercise”意义相近,表示“做锻炼”。故填I would like to take more exercise.

【73题详解】
句子的主语是“I”,表达“跑步”用动词短语“go running”或动词“run”;句子是一般现在时,表达“在公园里”用介词短语“in the park”。“为了保持健康”是目的状语,用动词不定式“to do/in order to do”,表达为“to keep fit/healthy”或“In order to keep fit/healthy”;“但是”用表示转折的连词“but”。后面句子的主语是“I”,表达“觉得”用感官动词“feel”,表达“孤独”用形容词“lonely”, 表达“伤心”用形容词“sad”;用“and”连接两个形容词形成并列结构。故填I go running/run in the park to keep fit/healthy, but I feel lonely and sad./In order to keep fit/healthy, I go running/run in the park, but I feel lonely and sad.
【74题详解】
根据“and sometimes I get a stomach ache.”可知应作肯定回答,故填Yes, he does.
【75题详解】
句子的主语是“The problem”,表示“问题”。“is”后面是表语从句。从句的主语是“I”,谓语动词是“do not know”,表示“不知道”;后面的宾语“how to do”的结构,表示“怎样做”。“stop and become fitter and healthier”是动词的并列结构,表示“停止(这样做),变得更强壮,更健康”。故填:问题是:我不知道怎样才能停止(这样做),(而且)变得更健康。
