An exciting landing process of Chang'e-4 lunar probe （月球探測器）was seen through the monitor at Beijing Aerospace Control Center in Beijing，Jan．3，2019．It touched down on the far side of the moon at 10：26 a．m．Beijing Time，becoming the first spacecraft soft-landing on the moon's unknown side never visible from Earth．
China's Chang'e-4 probe has started the exploration on the far side of the moon thanks to the relay satellite that provides a communication link with ground control．The relay satellite，named Queqiao，meaning Magpie Bridge，after a Chinese legend （傳說），was launched on May 21，2018，and became the first communication satellite operating in the halo orbit，nearly 500，000 km from the earth．It can also provide communication for probes from other countries．The relay satellite will also be used for scientific and technological experiments．The maximum distance between the satellite and the Chang'e-4 probe on the far side of the moon is 79，000 km．The satellite processes data from the probe and sends it to Earth．
The satellite can stay in its orbit for a long time due to its relatively low fuel consumption，as the earth's and moon's gravity balances its orbital moving．While in orbit，it can "see" both the earth and the far side of the moon．
The concept of using a relay satellite in the halo orbit was first put forward by U．S．space experts in the 1960s，but was realized by Chinese space engineers．
Researchers hope to use the cameras on the satellite to record asteroids （小行星） hitting the far side of the moon．To control the cost of the Chang'e-4 probe，the relay satellite was designed to be relatively small，weighing about 400 kg．
Researchers had just 30 months to develop the satellite，putting them under high pressure．To promote public interest in space exploration，the China National Space Administration invited people to write down their wishes for lunar and space exploration，and the relay satellite carries the names of tens of thousands of participants and their messages．

A．The relay satellite was launched on Jan．3，2019．
B．Chang'e-4 probe was the first communication satellite．
C．The relay satellite only explores the far side of the moon．

B．To make it circle Moon for a longer time．
C．To avoid being crashed by other satellites．
D．To follow American space experts' advice．
（3）What made researchers sufFer from great stress？ CC
A．Few people interested in the exploration on the moon．
B．The relay satellite carrying too much equipment．
C．Their lacking enough time to develop the relay satellite．
D．People's never being optimistic about the relay satellite．

A．China is a new space power after the USA．
B．Chang'e-4 probe lands on Moon's far side．

1．In 2019，the world generated 54.6 million tons of e-waste.However，just 17.4 percent of it was formally collected and recycled.Since 2014，the amount of e-waste recycled has grown by 1.8 million tons -a relatively small amount，considering that the amount of e-waste generated increased by 9.2 million tons in the same period.
Global reserves of some elements，such as platinum，are supposed to be fully used up within 15 years if the proportion of recycled stocks entering production doesn't increase.E-waste and EV batteries are currently recycled through processes called pyrometallurgy（火法冶金術）and hydrometallurgy（濕法冶金術）.However，they involve burning temperatures with a high energy demand and deep carbon footprint，and poisonous chemicals which are harmful to the environment.Alternatives are therefore being sought.
A team of scientists from the University of Coventry are extending one such alternative.They have been using non-poisonous bacteria to oxidize and recover the precious metals-a process known as "bioleaching".They have shown that copper is widely recoverable from e-waste，and that all metals present in EV batteries can be recovered by using microbes（微生物）.If extended，bioleaching facilities would mean that manufacturers of EV batteries and other electronic goods would be able to recover metals locally，relying less on costly exports to recycling centers abroad.
"At present，a key limitation for e-waste recycling is the lack of certification detailing the types and amounts of metals contained in electronic goods.But with an efficient recycling process appearing，manufacturers have the motivation to use more recycled material in their products，which will change the very design of electronics goods.It's about closing the loop of a product's life cycle，" said the leader of the Bioleaching Research Group，Sebastien Farnaud.
Ultimately，bioleaching technology is born out of the idea of creating a truly circular process for the things that we consume.We need to shift from a mindset and economy where we see waste as an end product，to one where there isn't even a start or an end at all.
（1）What do the statistics in Paragraph 1 indicate？
A．People pay no attention to e-waste recycling.
B．The recycling rate of e-waste is comparatively low.
C．E-waste has caused serious environmental problems.
D．The amount of e-waste is sharply increasing every year.
（2）What is the disadvantage of current ways of recycling e-waste？
A．They are not environmentally friendly.
B．They only apply to certain e-waste.
C．They generate metals with a complex process.
D．They cause a sharp rise in local temperatures.
（3）What do we know about the bioleaching technology？
A．It has been applied abroad.
B．It releases no poisonous gas.
C．It recovers metals by microbes.
D．It promotes the local export trade.
（4）The text is most probably a part of.
A．a travel guide
B．a fiction novel
C．a health magazine
D．a scientific journal發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:30:2組卷：1引用：2難度：0.6 -
2．When we see a person in trouble，the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand.But what if we see an animal in trouble，does the same rule apply？
This question was raised after a group of penguins were saved from an icy gully（峽谷） in Antarctica.It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties.The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young.They built a slope（斜坡） so that a few of the penguins could save themselves.
The case has taken the international media by storm.Viewers watching this film sighed in relief. "I'm so glad.I understand not taking action directly，but a helping hand isn't bothering，right？" viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook.
However，others think human interference（干涉）is unnatural. "You can't have sunshine throughout your life.To have done anything else would only make matters worse." said the show's creator David Attenborough，according to The Times.
In this case，however，Mike Gunton，the executive producer of the series，said that this was a one-off situation. "There were no animals going to suffer by interfering.You weren't touching the animals and it was just felt by doing this…They had the chance not to have to keep slipping down the slope." he told the BBC.
Such cases are familiar to Paul Nicklen，wildlife photographer for National Geographic.He told Metro，"If it's ever a predator（捕食者） situation，no matter how gut wrenching，you stay out of the way.Even when you're watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear."
"There's no rule book in those situations.You can only respond to the facts that are right there in front of you." Will Lawson，the show's director，told Daily Mail.
（1）What has led to a heated media discussion？
A．The rescue of penguins from a gully.
B．People's various remarks on penguins.
C．Some penguins' sufferings in a gully.
D．Ways of filming the series Dynasties.
（2）Who holds a positive attitude towards human interference？
A．David Attenborough.
B．Will Lawson.
C．Paul Nicklen.
D．Kathryn Shaw.
（3）Which of the following best explains the word "gutwrenching" underlined in Paragraph 6？
A．Making one confused.
B．Making one heartbroken.
C．Putting one in danger.
D．Putting one in place.
（4）What can be the best title for the text？
A．Necessity of Lending a Hand to Animals
B．Protect Animals From Dying Out
C．Human Interference on Dangerous Animals
D．Help Animals in Trouble or Not發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:30:2組卷：2引用：3難度：0.5 -
3．The history of Azerbaijani cinema dates back to the end of the 19th century，during which，many excellent movies have been filmed，which are still watched and admired by everyone.

The film has a lot of entertaining moments，songs and humour.The black-and-white version of this film has also been restored and can now be viewed in colour.
