C Back in 2011, archaeologists first discovered a lost highway littered with Viking artifacts (古 器物）sleds,horse bones, walking sticks, a 1,700-year-old sweater and heap after heap of horse dung. But now archaeologists have discovered so much more. Theyve published new. research describing hundreds of items that have been found along Lendbreen pass: shoes, parts of sleds, and bones from packhorses. It would have remained hidden forever had the ice not rapidly begun melting, revealing all that roadside Viking litter. The highway winds its way over the Lendbreen ice patch (流冰区） in Norways Jotunheim Mountains, about 200 miles north of Oslo. “The pass was at its busiest during the Viking Age around 1,000 A.D., a time of high mobility and growing trade across Scandinavia and Europe,” study co-author James Barrett said. According to researchers, the highway was possibly built around the year 300. At the time, heavy snow covered rocks underfoot. Trading posts were built along the nearby Otta River. The road may have thrived for many more centuries. “The decline of the Lendbreen pass was probably caused by a combination of economic changes, climate change and late medieval pandemics(中世纪流行病）， including the Black Death,” study co-author Lars Pilo explained. “When the local area recovered,things had changed, and the Lendbreen pass was lost to memory.” “The objects are amazingly well preserved, study co-author Espen Finstad added. “It is like they were lost a short time ago, not centuries or millennia ago.” For archaeologists, the Lendbreen ice patch seems like a gift from the ancient past. But its alarming that its unwrapping itself so rapidly. “Global warming is leading to the melting of mountain ice worldwide,” said Pilo. “Trying to save the remains of a melting . world is a very exciting job-the finds are just an archaeologists dream-but at the same time, it is also a job you cannot do without deep worry.” 28.How many archaeologists joined efforts to publish the new research? A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four. 29. What does the underlined word “ thrive ” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Grow weakly. B.Develop badly. C.Grow happily. D.Develop successfully. 30. From the last paragraph, what feeling do the archaeologists have about saving the remains of melting world? A.Excited and concerned. B. Satisfied and disappointed. C.Delighted and depressed. D. Astonished and discouraged. 31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. An ancient highway lost to memory. B.A history of the lost highway. C. The mystery of the lost highway. D. How to find the ancient highway. D Newly released images of the Sun taken by the pace-based NASA High-resolution Coronal Imager telescope(高分辨率日冕成像仪望远镜）are the highest-resolution pictures of our star ever taken. According to Scientists from the University of Central Lancashire and NASAs Marshall Space Flight Center, these pictures reveal that the suns atmosphere is much more complex than first thought. Parts of the Suns atmosphere, thought to be dark or mostly empty, are in fact filled with strands (缕） of hot electrified gases 311 miles wide. Each of those strands are up to 1.8 million degrees Fahrenheit, according to researchers. What exactly created these strands remains unclear, although it will now become a focus for researchers. NASAs Hi-C telescope can pick out structures in the Suns atmosphere as small as 43 miles in size-or about 0.01 per cent of the total size of the star. It was able to capture the incredibly tiny magnetic threads in the “dark areas”。 The Hi-C telescope is a unique astronomical telescope carried into space on a rocket flight. The telescope launches to the edge of space where it then captures images of the star every second before returning to Earth after five minutes Dr. Amy Winebarger, Hi-C principal investigator, stated: “These new Hi-C images give us a remarkable insight into the Suns atmosphere. Along with ongoing missions, this fleet of space- based instrument in the near future will reveal the Suns dynamic outer layer in a completely new light. Scientists will debate why the strands are formed and how their presence helps us understand the eruption of solar flares (太阳耀斑） and solar storms. Those are events from the Sun that could directly affect life on Earth. Tom Williams, a researcher who worked on the Hi-C data, said the images would help provide a greater understanding of how the Earth and Sun related to each other. “This is a fascinating discovery that could better inform our understanding of the flow of energy through the layers of the Sun and eventually down to Earth itself. This is so important if we are to model and predict the behavior of our life-giving star.” he said. 32. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. The Suns atmosphere was full of strands of hot electrified gases. B. The Suns atmosphere is considered to be filled with darkness and emptiness. C.Scientists think the Suns atmosphere is as complicated as what was expected. D. Scientists now concentrate on what exactly generated these strands. 33. What do we know about the Hi-C telescope? A. It is incapable of taking the highest-resolution pictures of the Sun. B. It can recognize the structure of the Suns atmosphere. C. It has been launched to the edge of the Sun on a rocket flight. D. It is capable of capturing images of the star every five minutes. 34.Why are these new Hi-C images so remarkable? A. They will make the Suns dynamic outer layer known from a new angle. B. They will help scientists figure out how the strands come into being. C. They will help scientists work out why solar flares and solar storms erupt. D. They will reveal the little effects of solar flares and solar storms on life on Earth. 35. What does the article mainly talk about? A. The importance of the Sun to Earth. B. How scientists take pictures of the Sun. C. The highest-resolution pictures of the Sun. D. What functions the Hi-C telescope possesses. 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 As an English learner, we sometimes get questions like this: “How can I speak English with more confidence? ” That is a great question. _36 Today,we have several pieces of advice to help you.
