Hey! The people of the earth. Can you hear this radio message Do not be afraid! We come in peace from another planet— and why not We are your cousins. We are men, as you are. We have been here before.
You will see a huge spaceship, a few hours from now. We are flying towards the solar system (太阳系) almost as fast as this radio message. Your sun is already in sight. Our ancestors (祖先) and yours shared the sun ten million years ago. I’m sure you have forgotten your history while we have remembered ours.
Our ancestors lived on the Earth when dinosaurs were dying. Sadly, they could hardly save the beasts. Your planet was very warm then. Our ancestors believed it would make a nice home for them.
They were wrong. Though we were masters of space, we knew so little about the Earth.
For millions of summers — there were no winters in those ancient days — the Earth had rapid (飞速的) development. It took about thirty years to fly from one planet to another, so our ancestors seldom travelled in space. But they never felt lonely. They kept in touch with their relatives and friends on other planets. Three or four times every century, starships would call and bring them space news.
But two million years ago, the Earth began to change. The temperatures fell quickly. The ground was covered with snow and ice. At that time, however, our ancestors knew little about that. Those who had called the Earth their home believed there was just a strange disease spreading on the earth. The disease wouldn’t cause death to them, but it would bring much pain and do harm to men’s health.
1. How soon will the people on the earth see a huge spaceship
2. Why did the speaker’s ancestors seldom travel in space
3. How did the speaker’s ancestors keep in touch with their relatives and friends
4. What happened to the earth two million years ago
5. How will you feel after you hear the radio message Why
第三节:书面表达(共1小题,满分15分)
假设你是李华,你的外国朋友Tom想学习汉语,希望你能给他提出一些学习汉语的建议。请你根据提示,写一封电子邮件。
学习汉语 1. 汉语使用范围广,占全球1/4;2. 汉语难学,但要自信、坚持;3. 大胆交流,不要怕犯错;4. 多听中文歌曲,多读中文报纸;5. 其他建议……(请你补充)。
Dear Tom,
It’s so exciting to know that you are interested in learning Chinese. ________________________________

根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
Hey! The people of the earth. Can you hear this radio message Do not be afraid! We come in peace from another planet— and why not We are your cousins. We are men, as you are. We have been here before.
You will see a huge spaceship, a few hours from now. We are flying towards the solar system (太阳系) almost as fast as this radio message. Your sun is already in sight. Our ancestors (祖先) and yours shared the sun ten million years ago. I’m sure you have forgotten your history while we have remembered ours.
Our ancestors lived on the Earth when dinosaurs were dying. Sadly, they could hardly save the beasts. Your planet was very warm then. Our ancestors believed it would make a nice home for them.
They were wrong. Though we were masters of space, we knew so little about the Earth.
For millions of summers — there were no winters in those ancient days — the Earth had rapid (飞速的) development. It took about thirty years to fly from one planet to another, so our ancestors seldom travelled in space. But they never felt lonely. They kept in touch with their relatives and friends on other planets. Three or four times every century, starships would call and bring them space news.
But two million years ago, the Earth began to change. The temperatures fell quickly. The ground was covered with snow and ice. At that time, however, our ancestors knew little about that. Those who had called the Earth their home believed there was just a strange disease spreading on the earth. The disease wouldn’t cause death to them, but it would bring much pain and do harm to men’s health.
1. How soon will the people on the earth see a huge spaceship
2. Why did the speaker’s ancestors seldom travel in space
3. How did the speaker’s ancestors keep in touch with their relatives and friends
4. What happened to the earth two million years ago
5. How will you feel after you hear the radio message Why
【答案】 1. A few hours from now.
2. Because travelling in space took about thirty years to fly from one planet to another.
3. By starships.
4. The temperatures fell quickly and he ground was covered with snow and ice on the earth.
5. I will feel amazing. Because I didn’t know that there are people on other planets.
【解析】本文是一个来自宇宙中其他星球人发来的信息,其中介绍了他们的祖先以及以前的地球。
1.根据“You will see a huge spaceship, a few hours from now.”可知几个小时后,地球人会看到一个巨大的宇宙飞船。故答案为A few hours from now.
2,根据“It took about thirty years to fly from one planet to another, so our ancestors seldom travelled in space.”可知从一个星球到另一个星球要花费大约30年时间,因此他们的祖先很少太空旅行。故答案为Because travelling in space took about thirty years to fly from one planet to another.
3.根据“Three or four times every century, starships would call and bring them space news.”可知一个世纪两到三次,星际飞船会呼叫并给他们带回宇宙新闻。因此他们是通过星际飞船与他们的亲戚和朋友保持联系。故答案为By starships.
4.根据“But two million years ago, the Earth began to change. The temperatures fell quickly. The ground was covered with snow and ice.”可知两百万年前,地球发生改变,温度降低,地面覆盖冰和雪。故答案为The temperatures fell quickly and he ground was covered with snow and ice on the earth.
5.本题是一个开放性试题,考生可根据自己的想法回答,并叙述理由。故参考答案为I will feel amazing. Because I didn’t know that there are people on other planets.

Dear Tom,
It’s so exciting to know that you are interested in learning Chinese. Chinese is the most widely used language in the word, and almost 25% of the population in the world speak it. Although it is not easy to learn it well in a short time, try to be confident all the time. Here are some suggestions:
First, it is a good idea to listen to Chinese songs. Second, reading Chinese newspaper and chatting with your Chinese friends in Chinese are also effective ways. Above all, don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Try to speak it bravely. I hope you can have fun in learning Chinese.
In my opinion ,I think practice is the most important. Practice makes perfect. Try to practise more and you can speak Chinese better and better.
Yours,
Li Hua
