A．None B．Neither C．Each D．Any
【答案】B
【解析】句意：海伦有两个兄弟，他们两个都不喜欢巧克力，但是她很喜欢。
本题考查代词。A None是“三者或三者以上都不”，B Neither是“两者都不”，C Each是“每个”，D Any是“任何”，用于否定句或疑问句中，前面的“two”是两个兄弟所以是两者之间，后面的but表示转折，海伦喜欢说明兄弟不喜欢，故选B。
5.—Where is Lucy
—I'm not sure. She ________ in the classroom.
A．may be B．maybe C．probably D．might
【答案】A
【解析】句意：--露西在哪？--我不确定，她可能在教室里。
A may be是词组，may是情态动词而be是动词原形，这个词组可以共同做谓语，表示“也许是，可能是”，B maybe是副词，表示“也许，可能”，C probably是副词，表示“有可能发生的”，D might是may的过去式，是情态动词表示“可能”，表达的可能性小。分析句子成分空处缺的是谓语，may be可以做谓语，故选A。

8．—How about going hiking in the countryside
—Come on！________．I can't wait.
A．Best wishes B．Good luck C．Better get going D．That's all
【答案】．C
【解析】：本题用标志词法。根据关键词can't wait可知选C，“最好现在出发”。Best wishes 最好的祝愿；Good luck 好运；That's all 就这些，都不符合语境

Now satellites are helping to forecast (预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists (气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前).

27.Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere Because
A．clouds form there B．the weather forms there
C．the weather satellites can do it easily D．people like to collect these pictures
28. Meteorologists forecast the weather .
A．without studying satellite pictures
B．before they receive satellite pictures
C．when they have received satellite pictures
D．after they have compared the new satellite pictures with the earlier ones
29. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for .
A．one day B．two days C．five days D．seven days or even longer

A．taking pictures of the Earth B．receiving pictures of the atmosphere

No one can change the weather. But if we read the signs around us correctly，we can tell how the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting. For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel in their bones the coming of wet weather—they feel joints(关节)pain. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. It is probably because of the insects which they are hunting that they fly low. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle(闪烁) clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be warm. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come. Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.

In England, people often talk about the weather because they can experience (经历) four seasons in one day. In the morning, the weather is warm just like in spring. An hour later, black clouds come, and then it rains hard. The weather gets a little cold. In the late afternoon, the sky will be sunny, the sun will begin to shine, and it will be summer at this time of a day.
In England, people can also have summer in winter, or have winter in summer. So in winter, they can swim sometimes, and in summer sometimes they should take warm clothes.

Now satellites are helping to forecast (预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists (气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前).

When the days grew long in the middle of summer, Lisa liked to go to the park and watch the clouds.
One day, Lisa saw a cloud that looked like a standing dragon. After a few minutes it became a flying dragon. Then it seemed to change direction. Another cloud moved in to mix with it, and the dragon changed into a dancing elephant. Then it became a sitting dog then a barking（吠、叫）dog, and then a tiger.
“This is better than TV!” Lisa shouted.
Mr. Thomas, the music teacher at Lisa’s school, was flying a kite with his son in the park. He heard Lisa’s voice. He gave the kite string（线）to his son and came to Lisa.
“Hi, Mr. Thomas!” Lisa said. “Look at those clouds. They keep changing! First they looked like a dragon, then an elephant, then a dog, and now a tiger!”
Mr. Thomas looked up. “A tiger ” he said. “That looks like a horse to me. It’s running towards the sun, That’s so lively.”

No one can change the weather. But if we read the signs around us correctly，we can tell how the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting. For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel in their bones the coming of wet weather—they feel joints(关节)pain. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. It is probably because of the insects which they are hunting that they fly low. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle(闪烁) clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be warm. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come. Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
36．Many people feel joints pain ________.
A．because of coming rain B．because they are ill
