Influenced by the launch of the first manned mission to Mars next month, you will most likely get a gift card for a space trip.The interest in trips, 100km above the surface of the Earth, has grown steadily since such a trip began. However, the market has grown much larger this year since the official announcement of the Mars mission. More low - cost spacelines have entered the market and you can now find flights for such a trip for as low as $3,495.Its very reasonable.Space tourism( 旅游业，观光业) is one of the markets that have developed fast during the last decade, with the opening of the Starbright Hotel on the moon as well as the low orbital hotels that started accepting guests. However, accommodation in space is still expensive for the average household, so the suborbital (亚轨道的) flights with thirty - minute weightlessness during the three - hour flight will for some time be the most popular trip.However, the spacelines might in the future face fierce competition between space elevators (太空升降舱), like the one that is projected to start construction within two years. Once it is fully functional, it will start to ship cargo to space. But it will accept passengers as soon as possible to get back the large investment. Even if the elevator becomes successful, it will take several years before there are more elevators in the world to get in the competition for space traffic with the spacelines.Those who are looking for a little bit of adventure and have extra money to spend may want to consider a suborbital flight in space. While a suborbital flight may not be the space mission that you have always dreamed of, it will give you the rare opportunity to see what our planet looks like in a high - altitude flight outside our atmosl3here. So before you enjoy a trip by elevator to space, enjoy a suborbital flight first. （1）From Paragraph 1, what will happen in January, 2031? A . A gift card will be taken to Max-s.B . Mars will be explored for the first time.C . Man will go to Mars for the first time.D . An affordable space trip will come true.（2）The underlined word average can most probably be replaced by in this passage. A . commonB . high - incomeC . low - costD . low - income（3）What is the space elevators purpose in accepting passengers as soon as possible？ A . To ship cargo to space.B . To get in the competition between spacelines.C . To start the construction of more space elevators.D . To get back the large investment.（4）Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A . Space tourism has developed fast during the last ten years.B . A suborbital flight may be the space mission that you have dreamed of.C . The suborbital flights will be the most popular trip for some time.D . Even though the elevator becomes successful, we still wait for a few years to see more elevators come out.（5）We can know from the passage that .A . the low orbital hotels have opened since a space trip beganB . within two years, space elevators will begin to ship cargo and people to spaceC . during the suborbital flights, you will experience 30 minutes weightlessnessD . if you want to meet your curiosity, you may try a suborbital flight21. （8分） One summer vacation in my college, my roommate Ted asked to me to work on his fathers farm in Argentina. The idea was exciting. Then I had second thoughts. I had never been far from New England, and I had been homesick my first few weeks at college. What about the language? The more I thought about it, the more the idea worried me.Finally, I turned down the invitation. Then I realized I had turned down something I wanted to do because I was scared and felt depressed(沮丧). That experience taught me a valuable lesson and I developed a rule for myself: do what makes you anxious(焦虑); dont do what makes you depressed.In my senior year, I wanted to be a writer. But my professor wanted me to teach. I hesitated. The idea of writing was much scarier than spending a summer in Argentina. Back and forth I went, making my decision, unmaking it. Suddenly I realized that every time I gave up the idea of writing, that downhearted feeling went through me.Giving up writing really depressed me. Then I learned another lesson. To avoid the depression meant having to bear much worry and concern.When I first began writing articles, I often interviewed big names. Before each interview I would get butterflies in the stomach. One of them was the great composer Duke Ellington. On the stage and on television, he seemed very confident. Then I learned Ellington still got stage fright（害怕）. If Ellington still had anxiety attacks, how could I avoid them? I went on doing those frightening interviews. Little by little, I was even looking forward to the interviews. Where were those butterflies?In truth, they were still there, but fewer of them. I had learned from a process psychologists（心理学家） call “extinction”. If you put an individual in an anxious situation often, finally there isnt anything to be worried about, which brings me to a conclusion: youll never get rid of anxiety by avoiding the things that caused it.The point is that the new, the different, is definitely scary. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.（1）We can infer from the passage that the author_.A . finds it difficult to make decisionB . has found out what causes anxietyC . was encouraged by Duke Ellingtons stage frightD . no longer feels anxious about new experiences（2）What does the word “extinction” in Paragraph 6 means?A . a persons loss of confidence little by littleB . the natural development of a childs abilitiesC . the inborn ability to avoid anxious situationsD . the process of losing fear by keeping facing anxiety（3）Which of the following opinions does the writer probably accept?A . Anxiety can be a positive driveB . Hesitation leads to depression.C . Avoiding anxiety reduces depression.D . Depression is a signal that one is growing up.（4）Whats the best title for the passage?A . Confidence: Key to SuccessB . Anxiety: Challenge by Another NameC . Depression: A Psychological AppearanceD . Success: A Trip Through Anxiety and Depression五、 语法填空 (共1题；共10分)22. （10分）This is our teacher, Mr. Zhang. _ is 36 years old.
