Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
Early in the autumn of 1674, Henry Oldenburg, secretary of the Royal Society in London, received an extraordinary letter. Sent by Antoni van Leeuwenhoek, a draper (布料商) from Delft in the Netherlands, it contained an unlikely-sounding claim.
Using a microscope of his own invention, van Leeuwenhoek had seen tiny creatures, invisible to the naked eye, living in lake water. Some of these “animalcules (微生物) ”were so small, and he later estimated that 30 million of them would still be smaller than a grain of sand.
Royal Society fellows couldn't believe it. Even with his most powerful instruments, the celebrated English microscopist Robert Hooke had never observed anything like the little creatures.
In fact, the Dutchman had developed far superior lenses to Hooke's, and had discovered bacteria and protozoans (原生动物). By producing even smaller and more curved lenses—using a technique that he kept secret—van Leeuwenhoek was able to magnify objects up to 500 times. As well as discovering micro-organisms, he was the first to see red blood cells.
In 1677, van Leeuwenhoek sent the Society further animalcule observations. Hooke eventually improved his own microscopes to the point where he, too, could see the tiny creatures. Three years later van Leeuwenhoek was made a fellow.
It was not until 1890,more than 160 years after van Leeuwenhoek's death, that bacteria were linked with diseases.“Reading van Leeuwenhoek's letters, you very much get the impression of somebody dazzled (眩晕的) by what he was finding,”says Lesley Robertson, leader of the archives at Delft University's school of microbiology. “He thought he'd found a whole new world—but he certainly never picked up on the connection with illness.”
语篇解读:本文是记叙文。全文讲述了布料商出身的Antoni van Leeuwenhoek发明了自己的显微镜。他的发明使得发现更小、更清晰的事物成为可能,这为把细菌与疾病联系起来奠定了基础。
1.What did Antoni van Leeuwenhoek see with his own microscope?
A.A letter.
B.Bacteria and protozoans.
C.Small animals in the water.
D.The element of water.
答案:B 细节理解题。联系下文“in fact,the Dutchman had developed far superior lenses to Hooke's,and had discovered bacteria and protozoans.”可知,荷兰人已经通过改良的镜片发现了细菌和原生动物,Antoni van Leeuwenhoek通过自己的显微镜看到的tiny creatures就是细菌和原生动物。
2.From the passage we can see________.
A.van Leeuwenhoek knew the tiny creatures in the water had something to do with illness
B.van Leeuwenhoek was the first to discover bacteria
C.van Leeuwenhoek was the first to use the microscope
D.van Leeuwenhoek was the first to know how to observe bacteria and protozoans
答案:C 推理判断题。通读全文可知,尽管荷兰人也看到细菌和原生动物,但是他们使用的是改进后的镜片,而不是显微镜,因此C正确。A有一定的干扰性,联系文章最后一句可知,他并没有把观察到的细菌和原生物与疾病联系到一起。
3.What does the underlined word “magnify” in the fourth paragraph mean?
A.To clear away.
B.To improve.
C.To collect.
D.To make large.
答案:D 词义猜测题。联系全文他改进自己的显微镜以及后文的“up to 500 times”可知,他的显微镜能把物体放大500倍,因此得出答案。
4.From the last paragraph we can see,when Antoni van Leeuwenhoek saw the tiny creatures, invisible to the naked eye,living in lake water, ________.
A.he was overexcited
B.he knew he followed someone else's discovery
C.he was a bit disappointed
D.his discovery was to lead a connection between bacteria and illness
答案:A 推理判断题。联系最后一段的“Reading van Leeuwenhoek's letters, you very much get the impression of somebody dazzled by what he was finding,”可知,当时他对自己的发明是极度兴奋的。
B
Do you suppose Darwin, one of the greatest scientists of all times, really did fools' experiments? Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?
Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important.
Charles Darwin didn't settle for (满足于) just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be.
Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets, What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn't be worth anything.
But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present day understandings of physics, ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set_aside some of ancient Greek physics.
Scientists sometime stop to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science.
语篇解读:有些问题的答案人们已经知晓,但人们没有想过这个问题是多么重要,伟大的科学家Charles Darwin总要通过做实验来弄懂事情的来龙去脉。
5.The passage tells us that Charles Darwin________.
A.was a great English scientist
B.always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult
C. thought even the simplest thing was important
D. didn't get well with others
答案:C 推理判断题。短文并没有说Charles Darwin是哪个国家的科学家,可排除A;由第二段可知别人认为Darwin的许多实验不值得做,可把B排除;文中没有论述Darwin与别人相处的事情,可排除D。由第三段第二句中“he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to he”可推出答案C。
6.The underlined phrase “set aside” most probably means“________”.
A.throw away B.store up
C.put to use D.realize
答案:A 词义猜测题。由上文可知作者认为做这个简单实验是重要的,它解释了目前人们对于物理方面的理解。因此这些理解当然是推翻了一些希腊古典物理学的观点。由此可推知set aside与throw away同义。
7.The author of the passage tries to________.
A.convince us that Charles Darwin. Galileo and Newton are the greatest scientists in the world
B.draw the conclusion that basic sciences are simple things
C.prove that two sheets of paper, with the same size and shape, will fall at the same speed
D.draw our attention to everyday happenings around us
答案:D 主旨大意题。短文的最后一段点明最简单的事情都可能动摇科学的根基,意在告诉读者要留意身边的每一件事,哪怕它非常简单。
8.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.Darwin really did fools' experiments.
B.According to some people, Darwin did foolish experiments.
C.It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple,
D.Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics.
答案:B 细节理解题。短文第一段第二句“Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish?”明确告诉我们,有些人认为Darwin做了愚蠢的实验。
Ⅴ.语法填空
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Ⅵ.阅读理解
He lived his whole life as a poor man. His art and talent were recognized by almost no one. He suffered from a mental illness that led him to cut off part of his left ear in 1888 and to shoot himself two years later. But in his death, he achieved world fame. Today, Dutch artist Van Gogh is recognized as one of the leading artists of all time.
Now, 150 years after his birth on March 30, 1853, Zundert, the town of his birth, has made 2003“The Van Gogh Year”in his honour. And the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, home to the biggest collection of his masterpieces, is marking the anniversary with exhibitions through the year. The museum draws around 1.3 million visitors every year. Some people enjoy the art and then learn about his life. Others are first interested in his life, which then helps them understand his art.
Van Gogh was the son of a minister. He left school when he was just 15. By the age of 27, he had already tried many jobs including an art gallery salesman and a French teacher. Finally in 1880, he decided to begin his studies in art.
Van Gogh is famed for his ability to put his own emotions(情感)into his paintings and show his feelings about a scene. His style is marked by short, broad brush strokes(绘画笔法). “Instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I have before my eyes, I use colour more freely, in order to express myself more forcibly,”he wrote in a letter to his brother in 1888.
Van Gogh sold only one painting during his short life. He relied heavily on support from his brother, an art dealer who lived in Paris. But now his works are sold for millions of dollars. His Portrait of Dr Gachet sold for US $ 89.5 million in 1990. It is the powerful and the brilliant colours in them are attractive to people,”said a Van Goah's fan.
1.All through his life Van Gogh________.
A.depended on his brother
B.worked hard on his dream
C.was not recognized by people
D.expressed himself in paintings
答案:C 细节理解题。由第一段前两句“He lived his whole life as a poor man. His art and talent were recognized by almost no one.”可知,凡·高活着的时候没有得到人们的认可。
2.Van Gogh killed himself because of________.
A.the poor life
B.his illness
C.his pain from the left ear
D.the refusal by artists of his time
答案:B 细节理解题。由第一段第三句可知导致凡·高自杀的原因是他得了精神病。
3.One of the characteristic of Van Gogh's paintings is____.
A.the likeness between his printings and the reality
B.the short time for him to complete a painting

Ⅴ.阅读理解
Edmund Halley 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, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant (有才华的) 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 Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse (椭圆).
Then Halley 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 appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart (相隔).
This seemed very strange to Halley. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley 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! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction of what would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halley's prediction could be tested.In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Halley's Comet, in his honor.

科学家在每一位学子的心目中都具有崇高的地位。古往今来,无数科学家的故事都曾激励着我们。你最敬佩的科学家是哪一位?读读下面对Albert Einstein的简短介绍吧!Albert Einstein (爱因斯坦) was considered the greatest scientist of the 20th century and one of the greatest of all time. His discoveries and theories have greatly influenced1 science in many fields.Einstein was born in 1879 in Ulm, a city of Germany. As a boy,he was slow to learn to talk, but later in his childhood he showed great curiosity2 about nature and ability to solve difficult mathematical problems. After he left school, he went to Switzerland, where he graduated from the university with a degree in mathematics.
In 1905, Einstein began to publish a series of papers which shook the whole scientific and intellectual3 world, and for the theories he established4 in the papers he won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921.
Because Einstein was Jewish5,when Hitler took over Germany in 1933, he had to leave the country and finally settled in the United States. There he continued his study on the structure6 of the universe until his death in 1955.
Among the several important discoveries Einstein made in his life, the greatest is the creation of his famous Theory of Relativity(相对论).
