While at the Starmus Festival, a festival in Trondheim, Norway, celebrating science and the arts, Hawking warned people that the human race is in serious danger.Hawking criticized President Donald Trump for denying climate change. Then the physicist warned the audience, “I am not denying the importance of fighting climate change and global warming, unlike Donald Trump, who may just have taken the most serious and wrong decision on climate change this world has seen.”Hawking proposed that the leading countries should send astronauts to the Moon before 2020 to restart a movement of more exploration in space. The BBC reported that Hawking suggested that we “build a lunar base in 30 years time and send people to Mars by 2025”According to the BBC, Professor Hawking said, “Spreading out into space will pletely change the future of humanity.” He continued, “I hope it would unite petitive nations in a single goal to face the mon challenge for us all.” The physicist shared more ideas to motivate the younger generation to continue exploring space. Hawking stated, “A new and ambitious space program would excite (young people), and stimulate interest in other areas, such as astrophysics (天体物理学) and cosmology (宇宙学)”Hawking also revealed his vision of other forms of energy that could move us to a new planet. He warned the audience, “The Earth is under threat from so many areas that it is difficult for me to be positive.” He continued, “Our natural resources are being drained at an alarming rate. We have given our planet the disastrous gifts of climate change, rising temperatures, reduction of the polar ice caps, deforestation (滥伐森林), and decimation (大批杀死) of animal species. We can be an ignorant and unthinking (考虑不周的) lot.”The professor warned the audience that doing nothing would lead nowhere. He said, “If we succeed we will send a probe (航天探测器) to Alpha Centauri within the lifetime of some of you alive today. It is clear that we are entering a new space age. We are standing at the threshold (开端) of a new era. Human colonization and moving to other planets is no longer science fiction, and it can be science fact.” Hawking advised the audience to move to other worlds because we are running out of space.语篇解读：文章引用了世界知名物理学家及天文学家霍金的观点，阐明了人类必须离开地球在太空中找一处新家的原因。28According to Hawking, what is the first step for humans to spread out into space?ATo send people to Mars.BTo build a lunar base.CTo send astronauts to the Moon.DTo change the future of humanity.解析：选C细节理解题。由文章第三段的第一句可知，人类要向太空扩展应在2020年之前把宇航员送到月球以重启太空探索，故选C项。29The underlined word “drained” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by “_”Aspeeded up BstoredCused up Dexplored解析：选C词义猜测题。由该词前面的“natural resources”和后面的“at an alarming rate”可以推断出，drain在这里是“用完，耗尽”的意思，故选C项。30What is Hawkings attitude towards the Earths future?APessimistic.

And if you are a woman, it can also help you live longer.Women who live in homes surrounded by plants appear to have lower death rates than women who live in areas with less green plants, according to a research.Peter James and his team looked at information from one of the largest and oldest investigations of womens health: the Nurses Health Study.For the new study, the team looked at the death rates of more than 100,000 women between the years 2008 and 2015. Then the researchers pared the death rates of these women to the green plants around their homes. To determine the amount of trees and other vegetation (植被), researchers examined satellite images.To make it more believable, the researchers considered other risk factors things such as the age of the women, their economic status, and race. They also looked at whether or not the women smoked.Peter James says he and his team were surprised to find such a strong link between high vegetation levels and low death rates. He adds they were also surprised to find how high levels of plant life can affect a womans mental health.The study suggests that living among vegetation lowered levels of depression. Researchers say women in greener areas spent more time with other people, exercised more and were less exposed to air pollution.One of the biggest effects of greenery appeared to be a lowered risk of cancer. Here are some numbers. The study found that women living in the greenest areas had a 13 percent lower rate of dying from cancer.James says that it is mon knowledge that vegetation helps the environment in many ways. But, he adds, the new findings suggest ways for city planners, landscape architects and policymakers to grow even healthier living areas.语篇解读：植物对环境有很多益处。研究者认为，女性若住在四处环绕植物的地方，死亡率会较低、可以减轻抑郁以及降低患癌症的风险；而且还发现植物寿命长短可影响女性的心理健康。32Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo introduce the green environment and call on people to enjoy it.BTo show women living in green areas are more likely to live long.CTo show the relationship between animals and plants.DTo give some tips on how to live long.解析：选B写作目的题。文章第一段引出话题，第二段提出本文的主题女性若住在四处环绕植物的地方，死亡率会较低，下文对此话题展开说明，并详细介绍了该研究是如何进行的。由此可推断，作者写作本文的目的是说明生活在绿色植物较多的区域的女性可能寿命更长。故选B项。33How did the researchers make the research more convincing?ABy studying more people.BBy examining satellite images.CBy taking more factors into account.DBy cooperating with the Nurses Health Study.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第五段第一句“To make it more believable, the researchers considered other risk factors things such as the age of the women, their economic status, and race.”可知，为了使研究更有说服力，研究者考虑了很多因素。故选C项。34When James found the connection between vegetation levels and death rates, he was _.AexcitedBunconcernedCrelieved Dsurprised解析：选D细节理解题。根据第六段第一句“Peter James says he and his team were surprised to find such a strong link between high vegetation levels and low death rates.”可知，当詹姆斯和他的团队发现高绿化率和低死亡率之间存在密切的联系时，他们很惊讶。故选D项。35What can we learn from the text?APeople are unlikely to develop cancer because of living with green plants.BPeople die from cancer more than from other diseases.CLiving with green plants can help lower depression.DThis finding is specially made for city planners.解析：选C推理判断题。根据文章第七段第一句“The study suggests that living among vegetation lowered levels of depression.”可知，住在四处环绕植物的地方可以帮助减轻抑郁。故选C项。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)It can be difficult to make friends living in a big city, especially when you dont know many people.
