idaroundEarth.C.Itmayorbitthesameasteroidafterthehit.D.Itisexpectedtoblowupaftertheimpact.解析:推理推断题。依据第三段至第五段可知,美国国家航空航天局用一艘航天器撞向一颗名为Dimorphous的小行星,这颗小行星围绕另一颗较大的小行星运行,这次撞击是为了推动它偏离轨道,撞击是成功的,因此推断撞击后,它很可能缩短自己的轨道,围着同一颗小行星运行。故选C。7.WhichstatementwillLindleyJohnsonprobablyagreewith?BA.Asteroidsareequallydestructivewhateverthesize.B.NEOSurveyorisaimedtotracksmallerasteroids.C.LargerasteroidswillnolongerthreatenEarth.D.NASAisresponsibleforthesafetyofEarth.解析:推理推断题。依据最终一段第一句可知,美国国家航空航天局支配在2026年放射一架名为“NEO测量者”的小行星搜寻太空望远镜。结合especiallythelargerones可知,探讨人员之前主要探讨大行星,但其实未被发觉的小行星才是对地球有威逼的。由此推断,“NEO测量者”的目标应当是发觉相对比较小的小行星。故选B。Ⅱ.完形填空(2024·苏锡常镇四市调研)I'vebeenworkingasaUnitedNations(U.N.)PeacekeeperintheCentralAfricanRepublicforthepasttwoyears.Beforethis,IwasapilotandI1.Bmywork.However,Ifeltitwasmydutytohelpinnocentpeoplewhoarecaughtintrouble,soI2.DtheUnitedNations.TheCentralAfricanRepublicisarelativelysmallcountry.Sinceitgot3.CfromFranceinthe1960s,therehavebeenmanyviolentconflictsbetweenthegovernmentandrebels(反叛者).In2012,acivilwarbegan,duetowhich,overonemillionpeoplewereforcedto4.Atheirhomesandthereweremanydeathsandinjuries.5.C,theUnitedNationsestablishedapeacekeeping6.Dinthecountry.Wepeacekeepers7.Ccitiesandvillagesto8.Athatnoconflictisoccurringandhelpbringsuppliesoffoodandmedicine.Wearea9.Bthatcankeeppeopleinconflictapart.Asawoman,Iamparticularly10.CasIcanactasarolemodelformanywomenandgirlsinthecountry.Whentheyseehowothersrespectme,theyfeelthattheyalso11.Atoberespectedandtreated12.B.Mylifeisnot13.Dinanyway!It'slonghoursinaverytoughenvironment.Ihavebasic14.Bwithjustabedinasharedroom.Ofcourse,beingawayfrommyfamilyandfriendsisalsoveryhardattimes.However,IknowthattheCentralAfricanRepublicissaferbecauseoftheU.N.Peacekeepers,andthatmakesitall15.C.语篇导读:本文讲解并描述了作者从一名女飞行员转行做了联合国维和部队中的一员,作者在文中不仅描述了她的工作,也表达了对自己工作的傲岸之情。1.A.hated
