Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points)
Directions:There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or u nfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHETE.
Passage One
Scientists said they have found evidence of a giant planet far out in our solar system. In a stat ement, the California Institute of Technology —Caltech—said this planet travels a very strange “l ong and thin orbit in the distant solar system. ” The discovery was made by two researchers at Ca ltech: Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown. They used mathematical modeling and computer simu lations(模拟) to find the planet. So far, there have not been any direct observations of the plane t.
“ My jaw hit the floor, ” said astronomer(宇航员) Mike Brown, the moment he realized ther e might be a ninth planet.
The scientists said it would take this planet 10,000 to 20,000 years just to make one full orbi t around the sun. The new planet, called “ Planet Nine ” , has a mass about 10 times the size of E arth. If they are right, the newly found planet would be the ninth planet in our solar system. Pluto (冥王星) had been called the ninth planet until 2006, when it was renamed a “ dwarf planet. ”
Actual confirmation of a ninth planet would be very big news. “ This would be a real ninth pl anet, ” Brown said in the statement. “ There have only been two true planets discovered since a ncient times, and this would be a third. It's a pretty substantial chunk of our solar system that's sti ll out there to be found, which is pretty exciting. ”
While they did not get a picture of “ Planet Nine” yet, the scientists say they are using the b iggest—and best —telescopes on Earth to try to find “ Planet Nine. ” They are also working on i mproving their computer simulations. They want to find out more about “Planet Nine ' s” orbi t, and its impact on the outer part of our solar system.
16. The newly-found planet ______ .
A. moves around the Sun
B. was discovered by two astronomers
C. travels a round orbit
D. is far away from our solar system
17. The possibility of finding a ninth planet made Mike Brown _______ .
A. confused
B. frightened
C. satisfied
D. surprised
18. According to the scientists, ______
A. the planet is ten times larger than the Earth
B. it takes the planet less than 10,000 years to make a full orbit
C. Pluto was once thought to be the ninth planet in the solar system
D. Pluto was given a new name after it was discovered in 2006
19. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ______ .
A. there is no actual confirmation about the ninth planet
B. no true planets were discovered in ancient times
C. scientists have found three planets in modern times
D. the ninth planet is the only one discovered since ancient times
20. To find “ Planet Nine ”, scientists are using all the following EXCEPT _____ .

D. large spacecrafts
Passage Two
“ Helicopter parenting ” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protect ive and do too much. The term was used for the first time in the late 1960s. It describes parent s who hover(悬停) over their kids like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helico pter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment f rom anywhere.
Author Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adull. In her book, she give s readers a closer look at this parenting style.
“ Over-parenting ” , she says,“ comes in three types: the first is the over-protective parent s who think the world is scary and unsafe and unpredictable. And therefore, I must protect and pr event. The second type is the over-directive type —the parent who says, I know best what leads t o success and you will do as I say. You'll study these topics, do these activies and you will be high ly achieving at all of it. The third type is the concierge(看门人)—the parent who just wants to ma
ke life smoother —from waking their kid up, to keeping track of their deadlines, to making sure th ey haven't forgotten anything, to even doing the homework for the kid. ”
Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting firsthand whe n she worked as dean of first-year students at Stanford University. The incoming students were ve ry smart and accomplished on paper. But many were unable to take care of themselves.
“ They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem solving, to have them m ake the choice about something. ”Often times, Lythcott-Haims had to remind those parents that their kids were old enough to take care of themselves.
21. The term “ helicopter parenting ” ________ .
A. describes parents who give children directions in the air
