Edmund Hailey was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets(彗星)which other scientists had made. The orbit (轨道）of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.
However, Hailey had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Hailey that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse (捕圆形）.
Then Hailey set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531，1607，and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearance had been 74 to 79 years apart.
This seemed very strange to Hailey. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Hailey thought about it，the more he thought that there had not been three different comets as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.
It was an astonishing idea! Hailey felt certain though (然而）to make a prediction(预言）of what would happen in the future. He decided that this would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Hailey’s prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Hailey did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Hailey’s comet, in his honour.
4. Edmund Hailey figured out the orbit of__________.
A. some different comets appearing several times
B. the same comet appearing at different times
C. three different comets appearing at the same time
D. several comets appearing at the same time
5.Hailey made his discovery_______.
A. by doing experiments
B. by means of his own careful observation
C. by using the work of other scientists
D. by chance
6. When did Hailey make a surprising, but correct prediction
A. In 1704.
B. In 1705.
C. In 1706.
D. In 1707.
7.This passage in general is about________.
A. Hailey and other scientists

Of all the planets，none has captured (吸引) the world’s imagination like Mars. Its reddish (淡红白勺）colour and changes in brightness over time make the planet an unforgettable sight.
In Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, a television science series from the 1980s，scientist Carl Sagan talked about some traditional ideas about Mars. Some of these ideas are from the English science fiction writer H. G. Wells，The War of the Worlds. Others are from the mistaken science of Percival Lowell，an American astronomer who believed intelligent beings lived on Mars. Wells described Martians as threatening. Lowell imagined them as the hopeful engineers of great works. Carl Sagan said that both ideas influenced the public deeply.
Today，Mars continues to excite humans—not as the object of science fiction but of scientific study. Space scientists have collected a wealth of (大量的)information from spacecrafts that have orbited, landed on and dug into the Martian surface.
The Smithsonian’s “Mars Day”offered a chance for people of all ages to touch Mars，or at least a piece of it. Allison and Alycia from Silver Spring, Maryland, brought their children，Grace，Sam，Ryan and Emma. They heard about Mars and its geology (地质）from experts. They could see a test version of the Viking landers that reached Mars in July of 1976. They also saw meteorites (隔石）known to have come from the red，or reddish planet. Eight-year-old Sam learned that the ancient description of Mars as red is not exactly right. He said，“It’s actually orange more than red and it’s also kind of brown, Emma is six. She learned about the volcanic(火山引起的）activity that has shaped the surface of Mars. She said，“The closest thing to Mars—the stuff—is from volcanoes mostly.”
“Mars Day” offered Allison and Alycia’s children a chance to learn more about a world that they are very likely to set foot on within their lifetimes.
8.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Why Martians were considered threatening.
B. Why Mars has captured the world’s imagination.
C. What people generally thought of Mars in the past.
D. How H. G. Wells got the idea for his science fiction.
9. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that ______.
A . today’s space scientists still know nothing about Mars
B. today’s space scientists are very interested in Mars
C. science fiction films are no longer set in Mars
D. space scientists haven’t made any progress in knowing Mars
10. Sam would probably agree that ________.
A. Mars is not really red
B.no meteorites have come from Mars
C. Mars cannot be described as a little brown
D. the ancient description of Mars color is true
11. What is the writer’s attitude towards the idea that humans will set foot on Mars
A. He thinks it may happen in this year.
B. He thinks it will always remain a dream.
C. He thinks it will come true within hundreds of years.
D. He thinks it may happen in the following decades.
D
Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own not because they have no one to travel with，but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider, from California, first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone，” she said. Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries, it is challenging with no one to help you read a map，look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to record his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person，” said the 30-year-old man.
Richardson describes traveling alone as “a shot in the arm”，which“makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.” He said, “The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
12. Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with
A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C. It is comfortable to travel around with a friend.
D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.
13.Traveling alone is challenging because ______.
A. you have to make things on your own
B.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
C.it will finally build your character
D. you can only depend on yourself whatever happens
14.What can we infer about Chris Richardson
A. He started traveling alone at an early age.
B. He was once shot in the arm.
C. He used to work as a salesman.
D. His website inspires others a lot.
15.What is the best title for the passage
A. Travel Abroad
B. Travel Alone
C. Travel Light
D. Travel Wide and Far

Seventy-three-year-old George selected his food in Value Mart more carefully than NASA chose its candidates for the space shuttle. Skim milk (脱脂奶)was $2.99, on sale from $ 3.49; white bread, 89 cents with a ten-cent discount；table salt, 99 cents, 20 cents off the regular price. Leaving the cashier, he estimated that he had saved 80 cents today. He was pleased that he had got good value for his money again.
At the exit，the freezing wind reminded him of his gloves.“Now where are they ” Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag either. He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. The worried man made a second thorough search of all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must had been dropped somewhere inside the store.
Old George had bought the black gloves at a 25% discount, for just $35 ten years ago. His quick decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one，which even promoted his social status on the bus，as poorer passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. Losing this favourite possession was almost like losing a child to him.
Bad luck, he thought. He entered the store again and followed the same route he had walked before, then the rest of the store. But it did not take long to be convinced that the gloves were not in sight. His sharp eyes could not have missed them.
“Society has changed，and people have changed，”he said to himself.“Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would return it. Not any more!”
On his way out, he went over to the cashier to ask if she had received any lost gloves, but she said no. Then he went to the manager’s office to ask the same question. She asked him what colour they were，and when he said “black”，there came another disappointing answer. For such a pair of expensive gloves, who would give them up Paragraph 1：

38. with考查介词。根据空后面的现在分词 growing可知，此处应该填With，构成with的复合结构。此题很容易受翻译影响而填as，意为“随着”，但是as引导的是时间状语从句，从句中应有相应的谓语动词。
39. to protect考查非谓语动词。take action to do sth.采取行动做某事。
40. decision考査词性转换。所填词前有不定冠词，因此应该用单数可数名词。

42. removed考查非谓语动词。fins与 remove之间是被动关系，因此此处应填过去分词，表被动概念。此处为“with+名词+过去分词”结构。
43.tries考查名词单复数。根据空前面的a few可知，此处需要填可数名词复数。
44. has focused考查动词的时态。根据时间状语 Since then可知，此处应该用现在完成时。

第三部分写作
第一节
One possible version：
Outer space explorations, yes or no
We had an argument over whether it is necessary to carry out outer space explorations at a class meeting the other day.
Some of us feel it important to research the outer space. Firstly, people can get a better understanding of the outer space through space explorations. Secondly, new resources can be found there for human use. Thirdly, these explorations can possibly bring new living space for human life.
However, others think very differently. They say this kind of exploration is much too costly. Besides, it is very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.
In my opinion, people should be pioneering and therefore such explorations into outer space are worth trying out.
第二节
One possible version：
Paragraph 1:
Back home, George was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. If he bought cheap ones again he would have to replace them very soon. If he bought a new leather pair, they would cost fifty dollars now. He was very upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.
Paragraph 2:
After the holiday, poor George made a hard decision. He was to buy a new leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the “Lost and found” office. “What colour are they ” the woman in the office asked again. “Black,” he gave the same answer. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they ” “Yes! Those are mine!” answered George, his eyes shining with joy.

Edmund Hailey was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets(彗星)which other scientists had made. The orbit (轨道）of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.
However, Hailey had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Hailey that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse (捕圆形）.
Then Hailey set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531，1607，and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearance had been 74 to 79 years apart.
This seemed very strange to Hailey. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Hailey thought about it，the more he thought that there had not been three different comets as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.
It was an astonishing idea! Hailey felt certain though (然而）to make a prediction(预言）of what would happen in the future. He decided that this would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Hailey’s prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Hailey did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Hailey’s comet, in his honour.
4. Edmund Hailey figured out the orbit of__________.
A. some different comets appearing several times
B. the same comet appearing at different times
C. three different comets appearing at the same time
D. several comets appearing at the same time
5.Hailey made his discovery_______.

Of all the planets，none has captured (吸引) the world’s imagination like Mars. Its reddish (淡红白勺）colour and changes in brightness over time make the planet an unforgettable sight.
In Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, a television science series from the 1980s，scientist Carl Sagan talked about some traditional ideas about Mars. Some of these ideas are from the English science fiction writer H. G. Wells，The War of the Worlds. Others are from the mistaken science of Percival Lowell，an American astronomer who believed intelligent beings lived on Mars. Wells described Martians as threatening. Lowell imagined them as the hopeful engineers of great works. Carl Sagan said that both ideas influenced the public deeply.
Today，Mars continues to excite humans—not as the object of science fiction but of scientific study. Space scientists have collected a wealth of (大量的)information from spacecrafts that have orbited, landed on and dug into the Martian surface.
The Smithsonian’s “Mars Day”offered a chance for people of all ages to touch Mars，or at least a piece of it. Allison and Alycia from Silver Spring, Maryland, brought their children，Grace，Sam，Ryan and Emma. They heard about Mars and its geology (地质）from experts. They could see a test version of the Viking landers that reached Mars in July of 1976. They also saw meteorites (隔石）known to have come from the red，or reddish planet. Eight-year-old Sam learned that the ancient description of Mars as red is not exactly right. He said，“It’s actually orange more than red and it’s also kind of brown, Emma is six. She learned about the volcanic(火山引起的）activity that has shaped the surface of Mars. She said，“The closest thing to Mars—the stuff—is from volcanoes mostly.”
“Mars Day” offered Allison and Alycia’s children a chance to learn more about a world that they are very likely to set foot on within their lifetimes.
8.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A. Why Martians were considered threatening.
B. Why Mars has captured the world’s imagination.
C. What people generally thought of Mars in the past.
D. How H. G. Wells got the idea for his science fiction.
9. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that ______.
A . today’s space scientists still know nothing about Mars
B. today’s space scientists are very interested in Mars
C. science fiction films are no longer set in Mars
D. space scientists haven’t made any progress in knowing Mars
10. Sam would probably agree that ________.
A. Mars is not really red
B.no meteorites have come from Mars
C. Mars cannot be described as a little brown
D. the ancient description of Mars color is true
11. What is the writer’s attitude towards the idea that humans will set foot on Mars
A. He thinks it may happen in this year.
B. He thinks it will always remain a dream.
C. He thinks it will come true within hundreds of years.
D. He thinks it may happen in the following decades.

Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own not because they have no one to travel with，but because they prefer to go alone.
Kristina Wegscheider, from California, first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. “It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone，” she said. Wegscheider has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.
In foreign countries, it is challenging with no one to help you read a map，look after you if you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.
Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to record his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. “The people you meet, the places you visit, or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person，” said the 30-year-old man.
Richardson describes traveling alone as “a shot in the arm”，which“makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything.” He said, “The feeling of having overcome something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I’m dealing with a difficult task. I walk around with my head up because I know deep down inside that nothing is impossible if you try.”
The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said, “Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.”
12. Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with
A. Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.
B. It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.
C. It is comfortable to travel around with a friend.
D. Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.
13.Traveling alone is challenging because ______.
A. you have to make things on your own
B.it is hard for you to prove yourself to others
C.it will finally build your character
D. you can only depend on yourself whatever happens
14.What can we infer about Chris Richardson
A. He started traveling alone at an early age.
B. He was once shot in the arm.
C. He used to work as a salesman.
D. His website inspires others a lot.
15.What is the best title for the passage
A. Travel Abroad
B. Travel Alone
C. Travel Light
D. Travel Wide and Far

Seventy-three-year-old George selected his food in Value Mart more carefully than NASA chose its candidates for the space shuttle. Skim milk (脱脂奶)was $2.99, on sale from $ 3.49; white bread, 89 cents with a ten-cent discount；table salt, 99 cents, 20 cents off the regular price. Leaving the cashier, he estimated that he had saved 80 cents today. He was pleased that he had got good value for his money again.
At the exit，the freezing wind reminded him of his gloves.“Now where are they ” Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag either. He was sure he was wearing them when he entered the store. The worried man made a second thorough search of all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must had been dropped somewhere inside the store.
Old George had bought the black gloves at a 25% discount, for just $35 ten years ago. His quick decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one，which even promoted his social status on the bus，as poorer passengers stared at him enviously for six months out of the year. Losing this favourite possession was almost like losing a child to him.
Bad luck, he thought. He entered the store again and followed the same route he had walked before, then the rest of the store. But it did not take long to be convinced that the gloves were not in sight. His sharp eyes could not have missed them.
“Society has changed，and people have changed，”he said to himself.“Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would return it. Not any more!”
On his way out, he went over to the cashier to ask if she had received any lost gloves, but she said no. Then he went to the manager’s office to ask the same question. She asked him what colour they were，and when he said “black”，there came another disappointing answer. For such a pair of expensive gloves, who would give them up Paragraph 1：

第三部分写作
第一节
One possible version：
Outer space explorations, yes or no
We had an argument over whether it is necessary to carry out outer space explorations at a class meeting the other day.
Some of us feel it important to research the outer space. Firstly, people can get a better understanding of the outer space through space explorations. Secondly, new resources can be found there for human use. Thirdly, these explorations can possibly bring new living space for human life.
However, others think very differently. They say this kind of exploration is much too costly. Besides, it is very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.
In my opinion, people should be pioneering and therefore such explorations into outer space are worth trying out.
第二节
One possible version：
Paragraph 1:
Back home, George was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. If he bought cheap ones again he would have to replace them very soon. If he bought a new leather pair, they would cost fifty dollars now. He was very upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.
Paragraph 2:
After the holiday, poor George made a hard decision. He was to buy a new leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the “Lost and found” office. “What colour are they ” the woman in the office asked again. “Black,” he gave the same answer. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they ” “Yes! Those are mine!” answered George, his eyes shining with joy.
