B On January 22, 2022, the British-Belgian 19-year-old, Zara Rutherford, successfully landed her two-seat microlight aircraft back at the Kortrijk- Wevelgem Airport, from where she had departed 155 days ago, fulfilling her dream to be the youngest woman to fly around the world solo. “I feel excited not only to break the Guinness World Record, but also to diminish the gender gap by 11 years between the current youngest male record holder Travis Ludlow 18 at the time of his record, and the previous female record holder Shaesta Waez, who was 30 when she completed her ‘Dreams Soar’ around-the-world flight.” Rutherford wrote on her blog. Rutherford's journey crossing five continents and 52 countries began on August 18, 2021. She encountered numerous unexpected delays along the way. They included an unscheduled stop in Redding, California, due to wildfires and a month-long stop in Nome, Alaska, to renew her Russian visa. She also faced several challenges in the air. When flying from Iceland to Greenland, Rutherford lost radio contact with her ground team for much of the 3-hour flight. The incidents also resulted in her having to cross over Russia in sub-zero temperatures. The hardest part was flying over Siberia—it was extremely cold and if the engine broke down, she'd be hours away from rescue. Despite the severe difficulties, the determined young pilot never gave up on her dream. Rutherford grew up around airplanes. Her British father flies commercially, while her Belgian mother is a recreational pilot. The young girl began learning how to fly at age 14 and obtained her aviators license in 2020. With her goal of flying around the world accomplished, Rutherford now has her sights set even higher. She wants to become an astronaut and explore space. She hopes that her journey will encourage more young women to pursue careers in aviation. Currently the number of female pilots is just 5 percent. Rutherford says, “It's an easy thing to say, but just go for it. If you don't try and see how high you can fly, then you'll never know.” 24. What does the underlined word “diminish" in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Narrow. B. Divide. C. Fill. D. Cause. 25. Why did Rutherford have to stop in Nome? A. The wildfires were too fierce. B. Her Russian visa was due. C. The weather was too severe. D. Her engine broke down. 26. What's the purpose of paragraph 4? A. To switch to a new topic. B. To summarize her achievements. C. To illustrate her admirable talents. D. To add some background information. 27. What does the passage try to convey? A. Life is not all roses. B. Dream big, aim high. C. Not to advance is to go back. D. The greatest talkers, the least doers. C It's raining microchips (微芯片). One day, they could float gently through the air while gathering environmental data, land on the ground and then disappear when th
