22．（8分）On February 6, Space X, a private US aerospace company owned by Elon Musk, has successfully launched its new Falcon Heavy spacecraft, making it the world’s most powerful rocket.
Falcon Heavy is the largest rocket since the retirement of NASA’s Saturn V, which was used for the Moon missions in the 1970s. “Falcon Heavy can launch about 64 tonnes into low Earth orbit-that’s almost three times more than the current running biggest launch vehicle, Delta IV Heavy, ”Imperial College astrophysicist David Clements told AI Jazeera. According to Space X, Falcon Heavy can lift into orbit a mass greater than a 737 jet loaded with passengers, crew, luggage and fuel.
The rocket was designed with the idea of earning humans into space and opening the possibility of flying missions with people to the Moon and even Mars. For its first voyage, it carried Musk’s $ 100,000 cherry-red Tesla sports car and a fake space-suited human model fixed in the driver’s seat. Musk joked that “it may be discovered by some future alien race”.
Falcon Heavy went into space on its last flight on February 6. The launch took place at NASA’s Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Kennedy Space Center in the US state of Florida, the spot also used for the Apollo 11 Moon mission and several space shuttle launches. It was delayed by several hours because of high winds in the upper atmosphere. Minutes after take-off, the two outer boosters (助推器) landed at the nearby Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
Space X announced plans to eventually use Falcon Heavy to launch two paying space tourists on a trip around the Moon. However, Musk said he will probably reserve that mission for another launch system, the BFR. Recently, Space X scheduled to launch a Falcon 9 rocket for NASA’s TESS mission on March 20, 2018. It is reported that Space X is scheduled to complete 30 independent launch missions in 2018, at least half of which will use Falcon 9.
1、Which of the following can function as a rocket?
A．A 737 jet. B．Tesla. C．Saturn V. D．Space X.
2、What do we know about Falcon Heavy from the text?
A．It was the latest rocket in the world.
B．It is of the same load as a 737 jet.
C．It is to be found by the creatures in the outer space.
D．It was launched at the same place for the Apollo 11 mission.
3、What delayed the launch of Falcon Heavy?
A．Weather condition. B．Program error. C．Equipment failure. D．Deliberate damage.
4、What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．The BFR will be completed in 2018.
B．The vehicle to launch space tourists is unknown.
C．Tourists will be sent into space by Falcon 9.
D．Falcon 9 will take 15 launch missions.
23．（8分）A young man wandered through the desert for forty days until he reached a beautiful castle at the top of a mountain. There lived the sage(圣人) that he was looking for.
With considerable patience, the sage listened attentively to the reason for the boy’s visit, but told him that at that moment he did not have time to explain to him the secret of happiness.
He suggested that the young man take a walk around his palace and come back in two hours’ time. “However, I want to ask you a favor,” he added, banding the boy a teaspoon, in which he poured two drops of oil. “While you walk, carry this spoon and don’t let the oil spill.”
The young man began to climb up and down the palace staircases, always keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. At the end of two hours he returned to the presence of the wise man.
“So,” asked the sage, “did you see the Persian tapestries(挂毯)hanging in my dining room? Did you see the fantastic garden that the Master of Gardeners spent ten years in creating?”
Embarrassed, the young man admitted that he had seen nothing.
“So, go back and see the wonders of my world,” said the wise man. “You can’t trust a man if you don’t know his house.”
Now more at ease, the young man took the spoon and wandered again through the palace, this time paying attention to all the works of art that hung from the ceilings and walls. He saw the gardens, the mountains all around the palace, and the delicacy of the flowers. Returning to the sage, he reported in detail what he had seen.
“But where are the two drops of oil that I entrusted to you?” asked the Sage.
Looking down at the spoon, the young man realized that he had spilled the oil.
“Well, that is the only advice I have to give you,” said the sage. “The secret of happiness lies in looking at all the wonders of the world and never forgetting the two drops of oil in the spoon.”
1、What was the intention of the young man to travel to look for the sage?
A．To appreciate the most beautiful scenery along the way.
B．To experience adventures of the outside world.
C．To learn the secret of happiness from the wisest man.
D．To figure out whether the sage was knowledgeable or not.
2、Which of the following statements is wrong?
A．The sage listened to the young man with patience.
B．The young man made it as the sage had expected.
C．During his second round of wandering, the young man appreciated the wonders of the castle.
D．The young man was too concerned about the oil when he first went around the castle.
3、Why did the sage ask the young man to go around his castle with a spoon of two drops of oil?
A．Because he wanted to find out whether the young man was perseverant(坚持不懈的)in accomplishing his goals.
B．Because he intended to let the young man know that happiness came at a price.
C．Because he wanted to help the young man to uncover the secret of happiness in an indirect way.
D．Because he wanted to let the young man trust him.
4、What can we learn from the story?
A．Real happiness consists in enjoying our rights and meanwhile fulfilling our duties.
B．We can’t trust a man unless we get familiar with his house.
C．The search for the secret of happiness demands our devotion.
D．It’s not easy to keep balance between enjoyment and commitment.

25．10分）Since last March, I have been visiting a pet clinic because of my cat Eddie. The clinic is in northern Massachusetts, about two hours from our home on Cape Cod. I expected it would be terrible depressing but it’s just the opposite. I have been so surprised at what I have learned there.
Now I believe happiness is something to love in any form. If I’ve ever know an angel, it is Keri, Eddie’s technician. Both Eddie and I are under her loving care. She gives Eddie his medicines.She gives me emotional guidance as well.
I can offer tell when it’s someone’s first visit. They’re usually crying. I think the reason why the rest of us don’t cry has nothing to do with hope. I think it has to do with another ingredient of happiness. When we think about our pet’s distant future, even if they’re healthy, w will feel sad. Keri, in her prayerful voice says, “Focus on loving Eddie
