Tani hasnt had an easy life. His family left northern Nigeria in 2017, and moved to New
11、 York City over a year ago where the boy learned how to play chess at school.

Seven victories later, the elementary school boy is one of the top players in the country for his age group.
13、“He works very hard at his game，” Martinez said, believing Tani could achieve master status in the next year or two. The worlds youngest grandmaster qualified at the age of 12.

17、, that the moon doesnt change. For example, the Tang dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu once wrote that “Generations have come and passed away; From year to year the moons look alike, old and new.” However, a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that the - 4 - moon is in fact slowly shri
18、nking over time. For the study, a group of US scientists examined and analyzed thousands of photographs taken by the NASAs Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (月球勘测轨道飞行器照相机). They found that there were lots of faults(断层) on the surface of the moon. These faults were formed by recent movement on the
19、moon. According to NASA, the moon is made up of pieces of rocks with a hot core. The moon continued to expand as it was born. But in this process, it released energy and cooled down. Then it began to shrink, in a way comparable to the shrinking of a grape into a raisin. Over the past several hundred
20、 million years, it has become 46 meters “skinnier”. But due to its hard and rocky layer, the moons surface continues to push up. “Some of these quakes can be fairly strong, around five on the Richter scale (里氏震级)，” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonians National Air and Space Mu

Maybe not, reported The Telegraph. “This isnt anything to worry about. The moon may be shrinking, but not by much. Its not going anywhere，” Watters comforted us. The new dis
22、covery proves that the idea that the moon is a dead, boring place is wrong. “We have been to the moon and weve done some great science, but there is still a lot we dont know. The moon is shrinkingwe didnt really realize that until recently. Its a much more active and interesting place than we though

CIt is getting older and older. DIt has passed away. 9What can we learn about the moon from the third parag

DIt has a hot core and releases energy during expanding. 10Who thinks that we neednt worry about the moon? AZhang Ruoxu. BThomas Watters.

34、 - 7 - learned it early last year”可知，Martinez 决定免去 Tani 的费用是因为他发现了 Tani 在国际象棋方面的天赋。故选 C。 6D 考查推理判断。通读全文，尤其是倒数第二段中的“He works very hard at his game”可知，Tani 虽然处于非常不利的条件，但是他却能通过自己刻苦的努力，将自己的能 力发挥到最大限度，并取得了成功。由此可推知，D 项符合题意。 7A 考查标题判断。根据第一段并结合全文其他内容可知，本文主要讲述尼日利亚小 孩Tani Adewumi虽然和家人一起无家可归， 但是经过自己的努力和在学校教练Sh
