This will help improve air quality, enable exercise in fresh air while keeping a safe distance and avoid unnecessary accidents.”‎ In Germany, bike repair shops are allowed to work because of the Covid-19 going on. Three federal states, Berlin, Saxony-Anhalt and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, have allowed bike shops to stay open.‎ 1. Why did German cities decide to widen temporary cycle paths?‎ A. To avoid traffic jams. B. To go to work conveniently.‎ C. To reduce air pollution. D. To keep proper distance between cyclists.‎ 2. What does the underlined word “pop-up” in paragraph 5 probably mean?‎ A. Substituted B. Limited. C. Expanded. D. Separated.‎ 3. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. Special measures is taken to raise the production of bicycles. ‎ B.All transportation means except bicycling are forbidden. ‎ C.The use of bicycles can stop the Covid-19 from going on.‎ D. Bicycle riding is encouraged to lower the risk of gathering.‎ C A planet the size of Jupiter has been discovered and it is one of the hottest ones known to us. This has made scientists think about how planets are formed.‎ Planets such as Earth have more oxygen than carbon, but what if the composition(组成) is just the opposite? This is a question opened up by a recent discovery of a diamond planet by US and UK scientists. The planet is 1200 light years away from Earth and was observed using NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope. Dr Marek Kukula explained that researchers initially used the ‎ Super WASP (Wide Angle Search for Planets) robotic observatories operating continuously, all year around. They detected the planet, then it was observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which detected the heat coming from the planet, and from that heat signature they can tell what this planet is made from.‎ The planet is very different to Earth. “It’s a giant planet,” explains Dr Kukula, “a gas planet, a bit like Jupiter in our solar system. But the interesting thing that they’ve discovered is that it has a very different composition to the planets in our solar system. This planet has more carbon than oxygen.” This suggests that there is more than one way to make a solar system and the range of planets in the universe could be much wider than previously thought.‎ Dr Kukula says that if there are smaller planets in the same solar system with a similar composition, rich in carbon, their rocks could be rich in minerals such as carbon and diamonds, unlike Earth which has silica（硅石）, the sand that rocks on Earth are made from. “This is where this diamond planet idea comes from; they haven’t actually detected a diamond planet yet,” explains Dr Kukula. It’s hypothetical（假设的）, “but you can imagine strange landscapes with black graphite rocks lying around and the surface could be covered with sticky liquids instead of water”.‎ 1. What planet has been discovered recently?‎ A. A planet with more oxygen. B. A planet with more carbon.‎ C. A planet hotter than others. D. A planet bigger than Jupiter.‎ 2. How do scientists decide a planet’s composition?‎ A. By its heat. B. By its size. C. By telescope. D. By distance.‎ 3. What can we learn about the new planet from paragraph3?‎ A. It is in our solar system. B. It looks like Earth.‎ C. It is completely different from Jupiter. D. It contains a lot of gas.‎ 4. Why do scientists call the planet “a diamond planet”?‎ A. It is rich in carbon. B. It is rich in silica.‎ C. It is rich in water. D. It is rich in sticky liquids.‎ 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Moving into a new home in a new neighborhood is an exciting experience.

His empty stomach reminded him constantly that for days he hadn’t eaten anything. He had no choice but to beg for a meal at the next house. Hesitantly he knocked at door, thinking about what to say when it opened. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. “What can I do for you?” asked the young woman. The boy paused for a while “Would you please give me some … a drink of water?” the boy dare not to look directly into her eyes. She looked at the bony boy and thought he might need something to give him energy so she brought him a glass of milk. His head rising and small hands taking the cup, he drank it up slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied with a warm smile on her face. “My mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” Deeply moved, he said sincerely, “Then I shall thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the whole human race. As a matter of fact, he was about to give up and quit before that point.‎ Years later the young woman became seriously ill. However, the local doctors were unable to give the effective medical treatment. Finally they sent her to a hospital in the big city, where specialists can be called in to cure her rare disease. Among those famous specialists, Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation(会诊). When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
