Liverpool is famed for many things — most especially The Beatles and its football team. But few would associate the city with one of the most famous political speeches in history. Yet tourism officials in the city have published the claim that Martin Luther King's “I Have a Dream” was written at a city centre hotel. The allegation (说法) has been made in a guide to a major art event named Liverpool Discovers.

A map in the guide shows more than 20 locations where famous people were born along with places associated with celebrities (名人) and events in their life. The guide claims, “Martin Luther King visited his supporters in Liverpool three times, and the first draft of his famous speech ‘I Have a Dream’ is claimed to have been written at Adelphi Hotel.” The speech, delivered to civil rights campaigners on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington in 1963, is one of the most quoted texts in history and was a definitive moment in the American Civil Rights Movement and in the fight for racial equality.

Dr. King's biographer, Godfrey Hodgson, said that the suggestion did not fit the facts. He said, “I don't believe it. If he had been to Liverpool, there would have been massive media reports, as he would have been a big figure by then. Dr. King did visit the UK on a number of occasions but he was not in the UK around the time of this famous speech in 1963.”Prof. John Belcham, a history lecturer of University of Liverpool who wrote an 800?year history of Liverpool in 2008, confirmed that he was unaware of any connection between Dr. King and the city.

1.In the first paragraph, the writer tells us indirectly that

________.

A．Liverpool Discovers was created to remember Martin Luther King

B．many famous political speeches in history were delivered in Liverpool

C．most people think Liverpool is known for the famous speech “I Have a Dream”

2.The guide offers relevant information about ________.

A．the places associated with celebrities

B．the families of celebrities

C．the contributions of celebrities

D．the daily life of celebrities

3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．Godfrey held a negative attitude towards Dr. King.

B．There were some arguments about whether Dr. King wrote the speech himself.

C．The connection between Dr. King and Liverpool was doubted by some experts.

D．John was unaware of any connection between Dr. King and Liverpool.

4.What would be the best title for this passage?

A．Martin Luther King and His Speech

B．Is Liverpool Connected to Martin Luther King?

C．Liverpool Is a Good Choice for Holidaymakers

D．The Most Famous People in Liverpool

It was something she had dreamed of since she was five. Finally, after years of training and intensive workouts, Deborah Duffey was going to compete in her first high school basketball game. The goals of becoming an outstanding player and playing college ball were never far from Deborah's mind.

The game was against Mills High School. With 1 minute and 42 seconds left in the game, Deborah's team led by one point. A player of Mills had possession of the ball，and Deborah ran to guard against her. As Deborah was running to block the player, her knee went out and she fell down on the court in burning pain. Just like that, Deborah's season was over.

After suffering the bad injury, Deborah found that, for the first time in her life, she was in a situation beyond her control. Game after game, she could do nothing but sit on the sidelines watching others play the game that she loved so much.

Injuries limited Deborah's time on the court as she hurt her knees three more times in the next five years. She had to spend countless hours in a physical clinic to receive treatment. Her frequent visits there gave her a passion and respect for the profession. And Deborah began to see a new light in her life.

Currently as a senior in college, Deborah focuses on getting a degree in physical treatment. After she graduates, Deborah plans to use her knowledge to educate people how to best take care of their bodies and cope with the feelings of hopelessness that she remembers so well.

I met my friend when we were in graduate school, and we enjoyed hanging out together outside of class. After receiving our degrees, we both left school to live in different states. That was 10 years ago.

We've kept in touch, but our phone conversations and twice?a?year visits became opportunities for my friend to talk endlessly about her problems. When I tried to fill her in on my own life, she obviously ignored.

In the past few years I've not visited her at all and been afraid of her occasional phone calls and visits to my house. She invites herself now because I no longer invite her. When she's at my home, she literally follows me from room to room, talking nonstop, until I make an excuse to get away from her. I tell her I need to take a nap, but I don't sleep. I sit in my room and read or enjoy the quiet.

Here's the worst part. She and her family, including two young children, are moving to our city. Her family has a small income, and they are buying a house in a grand neighborhood they can't afford. She asked if she and her husband and her children could stay at my home on their trips to our town to deal with house matters.

My husband and I have no children. Even though our home is tiny and perfectly sized for us, I let them stay. She told me her husband would start his new job before they finished purchasing this house. I felt obligated to offer her our guest room. If I hadn't offered, she would have asked anyway.

Now he's here, and it turns out he'll be staying on through the weekends. I am seething.

I would never under any circumstances impose on a friendship this way. I feel used, resentful, and don't care if I ever see her again. Should I end this friendship? I'm getting absolutely nothing from it but a knot in my stomach.

1.Every time they got in touch, the author's friend __________.

A．she is engaged in her own life

B．she hates her friend's nonstop talking

C．her friend always borrows money from her

D．her friend always wants to show off before her

3.We can know from the text that the author ________.

A．is a selfish and jealous woman

B．has a larger house than her friend

C．has more children than her friend

D．is unwilling to share her house with her friend

4.What is the author's attitude towards their friendship?

Washington: NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface. The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface, according to new Hubble observations.

New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon, which is the largest in our whole solar system, is home to a subsurface ocean.

Scientists estimate that the oceanis 95 kilometres thick, which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans. But unlike our salty waters, Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometres of ice.

While scientists have speculated (推测) since the 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede — the largest moon in our solar system — until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft, which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.

This discovery marks an important milestone, highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish. In its 25 years in orbit, Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system. A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.

Scientists_have_already_confirmed_the_existence_of_an_ocean_on_Europa,_another moon orbiting Jupiter, and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.

Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth, but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets. Using these same principles, scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant exoplanets as well.

1.What can we learn about Ganymede from the passage?

A．It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.

B．Its ocean adds to people's excitement about life beyond Earth.

C．It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.

D．Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.

2.Which of the following best describes the writer's attitude towards Hubble?

A．Cautious. B．Doubtful.

C．Negative. D．Favourable.

3.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 mean?

A．An underground ocean has been found in Europa.

B．The presence of an underground ocean in Europa is not possible.

C．It is now certain that there is an ocean on Europa.

D．No evidence has shown the existence of an ocean on Europa.

4.What type of writing does this passage belong to?

A．A term essay.

B．A news report.

C．An experiment report.

D．An exploration review.
