文档简介


Ⅰ.阅读理解
A space ambassador could be appointed by the United Nations to act as the first point of contact for aliens trying to communicate with Earth.
Mazlan Othman, a Malaysian astrophysicist(天体物理学家), is set to be tasked with coordinating(协调) humanity’s response if and when extraterrestrials(天外来客) make contact.
Aliens who landed on earth and asked: “Take me to your leader” would be directed to Mrs. Othman.
She will set out the details of her proposed new role at a Royal Society conference in Buckinghamshire next week.
The 58-year-old is expected to tell delegates that the proposal has been prompted by the recent discovery of hundreds of planets orbiting other stars, which is thought to make the discovery of extraterrestrial life more probable than ever before.
Mrs. Othman is currently head of the UN’s little known Office for Outer Space Affairs (Unoosa).
In a recent talk to fellow scientists, she said: “The continued search for extraterrestrial communication, by several institutes, sustains the hope that some day human-kind will receive signals from extraterrestrials.”
“When we do, we should have in place a coordinated response that takes into account all the sensitivities related to the subject. The UN is a ready-made mechanism for such coordination.”
Opinion is divided about how future extraterrestrial visitors should be greeted. Under the Outer Space Treaty on 1967, which Unoosa oversees, UN members agreed to protect Earth against contamination(污染) by alien species by “sterilizing” them.
Mrs. Othman is understood to support a more tolerant approach.
But Professor Stephen Hawking has warned that alien interlopers(闯入者) should be treated with caution.
He said: “I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. The outcome for us would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out very well for the Native Americans.”
1.The United Nations appointed Mazlan Othman as a space ambassador_____.
A.to talk to fellow scientists receiving signals from extraterrestrials
B.to protect the earth against pollution by alien species
C.to make contact with aliens trying to communicate with the earth
D.to settle UN members’ argument about signals from extraterrestrials
2.The leader whom aliens ask to be taken to will be_______.
A.Stephen Hawking, a British professor
B.Mazlan Othman, head of the Royal Society
C.BanKi?Moon, the general secretary of the UN
D.Mrs.Othman, head of the UN’s Office for Outer Space Affairs
3.The underlined words in the ninth paragrath coule best be repalaced by ( )
A. making them unable to produce children
B.keeping them out of touch with the earh
C. stopping them away from outer space
D. makind them unable to explore space
4.What Stephen Hawking said suggests that______.
A.alien invaders(侵略者) should be attacked fiercely
B.we should greet Future extraterrestrial visitors warmly
C.alien invaders will help humans on earth explore resources
D.we should take care to treat alien interlopers
What do you do when you need to look something up? Go to the library? Open an encyclopedia(百科全书)? Click onto the Internet? These days, most people go straight to Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia. But how reliable is it?
There is no denying the popularity and usefulness of Wikipedia. It attracts as many as 78 million visitors every month, and the site is available in more than 270 different languages. It’s one of the most comprehensive resources available, which includes almost all details, facts and information that maybe concerned. It’s got much more information than an ordinary encyclopedia. The site is updated on a daily basis by thousands of people around the world. Anyone with an Internet connection can log on and edit the contents or add a new page. And you don’t need any formal training.
Of course, there are some controls. Wikipedia has a team of more than 1,500 administrators who check for false information. And main targets for harmful comments(such as politicians) are off-limits to public editing. But with more than 16 million articles to keep an eye on, it isn’t easy. So, while Wikipedia benefits from being constantly updated with information from all over the world, it’s also open to “vandals”(破坏他人财产者).
Some of the damage is easy to notice. One person drew devil horns and a moustache on Microsoft chairman Bill Gates’ photo, while another edited Greek philosopher Plato’s biography to say he was a “Hawaiian weather man who is wildly believed to have been a student of ‘Barney the purple Dinosaur’ and to have been deeply influenced by his dog, Cutie”.
But other things are harder to spot. The most common form of vandalism involves adding tiny items of false information into the biography of a famous person. Unbelievably, some of this misinformation has appeared in newspapers, with The Daily Mail, The Guardian and The Independent all having fallen victim to the dirty tricks. For example, in an article about British comedian Sir Norman Wisdom, one newspaper claimed that he co-wrote Dame Vera Lynn’s wartime hit There’ll be bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover. He did no such thing. And in another article, it was reported that TV theme tune composer Ronnie Hazlehurst had written the S Club 7 hit Reach. Once again, not true.
So, if you’re going to use any information from Wikipedia, make sure you double-check it first.
5.Which of the following would the author most probably agree with?
A.Before using the information from Wikipedia, one should first check it.
B.Though popular and widely used, Wikipedia provides little reliable information.
C.It is understandable that some people add false information to Wikipedia.
D.Updated on a daily basis, any information from Wikipedia is reliable.
6.We can learn from the passage that .
A.because of its popularity, 78 million people from 270 countries visit Wikipedia monthly
B.Wikipedia is the most comprehensive resource with all information we need
C.anyone who has access to the Internet can edit any contents of Wikipedia as they like
D.the primary job of the administrators is to make sure true information is conveyed
7.What does the underlined part “off-limits” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Not convenient .B.Not welcome.
C.Not accessible. D.Not boundless.
8.What’s the writer’s attitude to Wikipedia?
A.Negative. B.Worried.
C.Indifferent. D.Objective.
Ⅱ.语法填空

One day I saw an advertisement in a local newspaper. I ring up the company, and I was given the job immediately. They asked me to take a tour around the city next morning.

【参考范文】
Dear Bob,
I’m so glad to know that you’ll come to our city to learn Chinese. You asked me to find a place for you. Now I’ve found one that I think is pretty good. It is on Fang Cao Street which is near the No.11 bus stop and just one stop away from Jianxin Chinese School. It’s a small flat of 25 square meters on the third floor, with a bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen. In the bedroom there is a bed, a sofa, a desk and a chair. The rent is 500 yuan per month. I hope you’ll like it. If not, I’ll try to find another place for you. I’m looking forward to your coming.
All the best!
Yours,
Li Hua
