Scientists have discovered a
It's a stellar black
hole
—
the type that forms
after stars die, collapse, and explode.
Researchers
had
previously
believed
that
the
size
limit
was
no
more
than
20
times
the
mass
of
our
sun
because 8S these stars
die, they lose most of their mass through
explosions that expel matter and
gas
swept away by stellar winds
This
theory
has
now
been
toppled
by
LB-1,
the
newly
discovered
black
hole.
Located
about
15.000 light years away, it has a mass
70 times greater than our sun, according to a
press release
from the Chinese Academy
of Sciences.
The
findings were published by Chinese researchers in
the journal Nature on Wednesday.
models of stellar
evolution,
twice as massive as what we
thought possible. Now theorists will have to take
up the challenge of
explaining its
formation.
Scientists
are now scratching their heads at how LB-1 got so
huge.
The Chinese team
has proposed a number of theories. LB-1' sheer
size suggests that it
formed from the
collapse of only one star,
—
instead, it could potentially be two
smaller black holes orbiting each
other.
Another
possibility is that it formed from
—
the last stage of an
exploding star
—
ejects
material during the explosion, which then falls
back
into the supernova, creating a
black hole.
This
fallback formation is theoretically possible but
scientists have never been able to prove or
observe it. If this is how LB-1 formed,
then we may have
first time, the study
said.
There are several
types of black holes and stellar black holes like
LB-1 are on the smaller side,
according
to NASA. Supermassive black holes are much
bigger
—
they can be billions
of times the
mass of our
sun,
Scientists believe
supermassive black holes may be connected to the
formation of galaxies, as
they often
exist at the center of the mass star stems but it
is still not clear exactly how, or which
form first.

【分析】本文是一篇新闻报
道，报道了科学家们已经发现了一个
“
巨型黑洞
”
，其
质量之大，在理论上是不应该存在。但这个理论
现在已经被新中国科学家发现的黑洞
LB-1
所推翻。科学家们
现在正绞尽脑汁研究
LB-1
是如何变得如此巨大的，并介绍了
几种可能性
的理论。
（
1
）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的
“Scientists
have
discovered
a
‘monster
black
hole’
so
massive
that,
in
theory,
it
should
n't
exist.”
可知，科学家们已经发现了一个
“
巨型黑洞
”
，其质
< br>量之大，在理论上是不应该存在；再根据第三段
“This
theory
has
now
been
toppled by
LB
-1,
the newly
discovered black hole. Located about 15.000 light
years away, it has a mass 70 times
greater than our sun, according to a
press release from the Chi
nese Academy
of Sciences.”
可知，
但这个理论现在已经被新中
国科学家发现的黑洞
LB-1
所推翻。根据中国科学院的一份新
闻
稿，它位于
15000
光年之外，质
量是太阳的
70
倍。所以判断出作者写这篇文章的目的是
与读者分享黑洞发现的新进展，故选
C
。
（
2
）考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段中的
“If
this
is
how
LB
-1
formed,
then
we
may
have‘direct evidence for this process’
for the first time.”
可知，如果这就是
LB-1
的形成过程，
那么我们可能首次有了
< br>“
这一过程的直接证据
”
。所以
LB-1
这一发现可能会给
“
后援形成理
论
”
带来一
些突破。故选
D
。
（
3
）考查
细节理解。根据第二段中的
“because
8S
these
stars
die,
they
lose
most
of
their
mass
through explosions that expel matter and gas swept
away by stellar winds.”
可知，因为这
些恒星会死亡，它们大部分质量因爆炸而损失，恒星风会把爆炸释放出来的物质和气体吹
走。所以如果我们星系中的太阳死亡，它的一部分质量会被恒星风吹走。故选
A
。

It took me a moment to realize what
had happened. Three days had passed and Rita
seemed to
get weaker and weaker. The
rain had stopped. However, the sky was still
cloudy, and it was so
dark that I
couldn't see the buildings even across the road. I
took a pressure reading from the
weather station: 947mb, which let me
know exactly where I was
—
in
the eye of the storm.
There were rains and winds still, but not
oppressive (
难以忍受的
)anymore.
There was still no
power, hot water or
food. Besides, I didn't sleep well for all these
days, but I felt more relaxed
since the
weather report said Rita was leaving. What's more,
I was luckier than those people who
had
lost their homes or even worse, lost their lives
because of Rita.
As I
travelled further to the west, going after the
storm, the damage along the way became less
severe. I arrived in Houston after a
tricky journey with my fuel supplies almost all
gone. However,
I came across another
storm chaser (
追逐者
) who had
45 gallons of petrol. He helped me and we
shared our working experience these
days. With a complete stroke of luck I found a
run-down
hotel
that
allowed
me
to
have
a
room
overnight
before
the
midnight.
Although
there
was
no
running
water, no power and no air conditioning, I curled
up into a corner and fell asleep
quickly.
I
woke
up
the
next
morning,
and
what

The

the hotel and headed towards the airport. Houston
Airport
was not damaged, so I took my
flight and drank my first hot drink in four
days.
All in all, when I
came back home, I was proud that I finally made it
again to follow and record
the storm
and I really learned a lot these days. Although
it's dangerous, I love my job as not many
people would go into the eye of an
intense storm.

Samanta
Schweblin,
one
of
the
best
young
Spanish
language
novelists
nominated
(
提名
)
by
British
literary
magazine
Granta
,
has
visited
Beijing
to
promote
the
first
Chinese
edition
of
a
collection
of
her
short
stories.
The
collection,
Birds
in
the
Mouth,
has
been
translated
and
published by Shanghai-based publisher
Reader.
“Sometimes I hold the Chinese edition
and choose a story at
random and try to
guess which
one it is. But it is almost
impossible for me; even the length is different.”
says Schweblin. “When a
book is
translated into a Western language, I can at least
understand some parts of my stories,
and therefore suffer some doubt about
the quality of the translation. But my Chinese
edition is
more like an act of
faith.”
Born in
Argentina in 1978, Schweblin says she is
influenced by the literary traditions of the La
Plata area, home to many famous Latin-
American novelists.
Interested in writing stories of ordinary lives
where suddenly something extraordinary happens,
something new, strange or unknown, she
thinks, “The stranger and the unknown are not
always
related
to
ghosts
or
aliens,
but
can
be
something
related
to
the known
world,
something
that
actually could
happen.”
Birds in the Mouth
tells of
a divorced father who worries about his 13-year-
old daughter and
her mysterious
appetites. It turns out that his daughter eats
live birds.
The idea for
this story came
to Schweblin when she
was browsing the Internet, “Click, click,
click, a picture of a little girl who
looks frightened with her hands covering her mouth
came to my
eyes. Little by little, I
developed the story in my mind, and then wrote it
down” recalls S
chweblin.
Although
there
are
elements
of
violence
and
bloodiness
in
Schweblin's
stories,
she
skillfully
hides them, thinking the trick to
writing a thrilling story is to stop the monster
from appearing,
while maintaining a
frightening and mysterious atmosphere.

One
of
the
most
striking
findings
of
a
newly
research
in
the
UK
is
that
of
the
people
interviewed, one in
two believes that it is becoming more difficult to
meet someone to start a
family
with.
Why
are
many
finding
it
increasingly
difficult
to
start
close
relationships?
Does
modem
life
really
make it harder to fall in love? Or are we making
it harder for ourselves? It is certainly the
case today that contemporary couples
benefit in different ways from relationships.
Women no
longer rely upon partners for
money or status. A man doesn't expect his wife to
be in (
唯一的
)
charge of running his household and
raising his children.
But perhaps the knowledge that we can live
perfectly well without a partnership means that it
takes much more to persuade people to
abandon their independence.
In theory, finding a partner should be much
simpler these days. Only a few generations ago,
your
choice
of
soul
mate
was
limited
by
geography,
social
convention
and
family
tradition.
Although it was never
clear
，
many marriages were
essentially arranged. Now those barriers have
been broken down. You can approach a
builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city
on any
given evening. When the world is
your oyster (
牡蛎
), you
surely have a better chance of finding a
pearl.
But
it
seems
that
the
old
conventions
have
been
replaced
by
the
limitations
of
choice.
The
expectations of partners are raised to
an unmanageable degree: good looks, impressive
salary,
kind to grandmother, and right
socks. There is no room for error in the first
impression.
We think
that a relationship can be perfect. If it isn't,
it should be ended. We work to protect
ourselves against future heartache and
don't put in the hard emotional labor needed to
build a
strong relationship. Twelve-
hour work at the office makes relaxed after-hours
dating difficult. The
cost of housing
and child-raising creates pressure to have a
stable income and Career before a life
partnership.
（

）
What is a
contemporary family like in UK today?
A. Couples share the
burdens. B. Men begin
to depend on women.
C. Women
are responsible for housework. D. It is
difficult to take care of a family.
（
2
）
Why
do people preserve their independence?
A. To live alone happily.
B. To have more choices.
C. To avoid marriages.
D. To ignore traditions.
（
3
）
What
makes it hard for people to date?
A. Mental headache in
dating. B. The pressure
to survive.
C. Bad luck in
finding a partner. D. The
faith between life partners.
（

）
What is the
author trying to inform us in this text?
A. Perfect marriages
conflict with independence.
B. People should, spend more money on
marriages.
C. The
expectations and reality separate the
lovers.
D. Independence is
much more important than love.

These
days,
I
walk
down
the
steps
leading
toward
the
south
end
of
the
All
England
Club
in
Wimbledon,
and
still
look
for
the
Crow's
Nest,
a
small
green
observation
tower
with
an
outer
ladder that I used to climb on for a
wide view of the grounds, but which has since been
knocked
down.
The Crow's Nest was a particularly useful point,
because it allowed a tennis writer to keep track
of the action on as many as 10 outside
courts at a time. At days end, reporters from
different
nations would share notes on
what they had observed all over the
grounds.
Twenty-seven
years later, the press room has touch screens that
allow us to watch live videos
from
any
court,
and
even
go
back
to
watch
key
moments
in
key
matches
long
after
they
have
finished. You could
cover Wimbledon without leaving your seat. But
that is a bit like spending all
your
time ordering room service and looking up fun
facts on Wikipedia.
More
than at any other tennis tournament, there is also
an appetite for stories that deal with
the setting, the history and the
traditions.
If they
change the price of the fish tacos
(
鱼肉卷饼
) at the United States
Open, it's not a story.
If
they
change
the
price
of the
strawberries
and
cream,
the
signature
treat
at Wimbledon.
It's
time to email your editor using capital
letters.
The new
retractable (
可伸缩的
) roof was
put in place in 2009. Until then, you always had
to
have a rainy-day story in your
notebook because there were no guarantees any
matches would be
played. Now tennis is
a sure thing on Centre Court, which has made
tennis reporters a bit less
creative.
But at least it guarantees us daily access to the
most atmospheric place in the sport.
So much has changed, but Centre
Court remains true to its original spirit: more a
theater than a
stadium. Catching that
feeling is part of covering Wimbledon,
too.

The

（平息）
as
the
teacher
entered
classroom.
“Good
morning
class.
I
am
Riffat
Monaf,
and
I
will
be
your
geography
teacher.”
Riffat
Monaf,
an
interesting
name
and
an
even
more
interesting
person.
Her
introduction
took
place
about
six
years ago, and since then I have never
met a more influential person in my
life.
Mrs Monaf not only
conquered me with her vast knowledge of geography,
but also won me
over with her smile and
warm eyes. It was in her class that I traveled to
the highest mountains
and to the
deepest seas from the comfort of the classroom. I
learned about the vast oceans, the
erupting volcanoes, the snow-capped
mountains and the green valleys. She would often
relate
her adventures about traveling
to different parts of the world.
Never can I forget the glory of her
face when she talks about how truly beautiful this
world is. If
I search back my love for
the environment and geography, I find her to be
the source of my love
for preserving
nature. If one day I became an environmentalist, I
know that I'll thank her for it.
Apart
from
this,
she
has
always
greeted
me
with
open
arms
and
she
calls
her
students
“my
children”.
Mrs
Monaf's
morals
and
values
rubbed
off
me
deeply
and
I
have
always
taken
her
advice into consideration. She has been
one of the most consistently good things in my
life.
Currently, she is
fighting a battle against breast cancer, and it
pains me to know that after all
she has
done for me; I can do nothing for her except pray.
Whenever I see her in school, she still
keeps that kind smile and an expression
so soft that it trembles my heart. Mrs Monaf still
talks
enthusiastically about geography,
and I know that I can never see what a truly great
person she
has been in my life.

Watching
wooden
dolls
come
to
life
may
not
be
one
of
the
most
popular
forms
of
entertainment today, but with over
twenty years' experience, talented puppeteer
(
木偶表演者
)
Peter
Roberts has earned himself the title “master
puppeteer” because of his great ability to turn
puppets into believable, almost living
characters. “People are quite often surprised
to hear what I
do for living
and have little appreciation of puppy as a form of
entertainment. But while the exact
origins of puppet theatre are unknown,
it has been popular in many cultures and may have
been
the very first kind of theatre,”
he explains.
Roberts' shows are highly original. “A
puppet show can involve anything from
clowning(
傻逗
)
to
storytelling,” he says, Equally diverse are the
audiences he performs for. “Some are attracted
by the puppets themselves, while others
enjoy the dialogue.” Robe
rts believes
that this form of
entertainment can be
appreciated by people of all ages and
cultures.
Roberts'
interest
in
puppets
started
when
he
received
some
beautiful
glove
puppets
one
Christmas. He started putting on shows
with these for family and friends and then moved
on to
handmade
Chinese
string
puppets.
Learning
mostly
from
books
and
personal
experience,
he
explains, “I was already
spending most of my free time carving puppets and
putting on shows, so
I hardly noticed
the change from students to full-
time
professional puppeteer.”
The
puppets
are
designed
specifically
for
each
show,
which
is
extremely
time
consuming.
According to
Roberts, “Sometimes what you expect and what you
actually create in the end are
two very
different things. I've ma
de some of my
best puppets 'accidentally'.”
When most people hear
the word “puppetry”, they more than likely think
of a way of keeping
children
entertained at birthday parties. Certainly the
subject matter will be expected to be
light-
hearted
rather
than
serious.
However,
Roberts
wants
to
point
out
that
puppets
come
serious
messages sometimes.” he
says.

A
new study shows that air pollution can cause a
huge reduction in our intelligence. The study
was a project involving researchers at
Peking University in China and Yale University in
the United
States.
The researchers reported that long-
term exposure to air pollution can affect a
person's mental
abilities in two areas:
Language and math.
The
researchers
studied
about
25,000
people
from
across
China.
Between
2010
and
2014,
these Chinese men, women and children
were given language and math tests. Then
researchers
compared the test results
with measurements of pollution in the air, namely
nitrogen dioxide and
sulfur dioxide
(
二氧化硫
).
Xi Chen of the Yale School of
Public Health led the study. He and his team found
that breathing
polluted air can reduce
a person's education level by about one
year.
Chen said that the
effect generally is worse for those over 64 years
of
age, for men and for
those with little or no
education.
“The older persons—
they are
more affected. And we find, quite amazingly, males
are more
affected
than
females.
And
people
working
outdoors
are
more
affected
than
people
working
indoors.
He
noted that the youngest people in the study were
10 years old, while the oldest was 90
years old. They came from China's 33
provinces. In his words, the data and facts are
convincing
and
this
range
of
ages
and
locations
across
the
country
provided
a
real,
objective
and
representative
sample.
The researchers
noted that the effect of air pollution on verbal
ability is even more serious as
people
age,
especially
among
men
and
the
less
educated.
The
researchers
also
stressed
that
every country, whether developed,
developing or poor, should focus on air pollution
or humans
will face a bad
situation.
（

）
What is the result of the
study?
pollution has a bad effect on people's
intelligence.
s are more
affected by air pollution than males.
ans are more affected by air pollution
than Chinese.
working
indoors are actually not affected by air
pollution.
（

What did Chen say about the
study?
is
doubtful.

What
did the researchers emphasize in the last
paragraph?
