Ⅱ.阅读理解
Why
should
mankind
explore
space?
Why
should
money,
time
and
effort
be
spent
exploring
and
researching
something
with
so
few
apparent
benefits?
Why
should
resources
be
spent
on
space
rather
than
on
conditions
and
people
on
Earth?
These
are
questions
that,
understandably,
are
very
often
asked.
Perhaps
the
best
answer
lies
in
our
genetic
makeup
(基因构成)
as
human
beings.
What
drove
our
ancestors
to
move
from
the
trees
into
the
plains,
and
on
into
all
possible
areas
and
environments?
The
wider
the
spread
of
a
species,
the
better
its
chance
of
survival.
Perhaps
the
best
reason
for
exploring
space
is
this
genetic
tendency
to
expand
wherever
possible.
Nearly
every
successful
civilization
has
explored,
because
by
doing
so，any
dangers
in
surrounding
areas
can
be
identified
and
prepared
for.
Without
knowledge,
we
may
be
completely
destroyed
by
the
danger.
With
knowledge,
we
can
lessen
its
effects.
Exploration
also
allows
minerals
and
other
potential
(潜在的)
resources
to
be
found.
Even
if
we
have
no
immediate
need
of
them,
they
will
perhaps
be
useful
later.
Resources
may
be
more
than
physical
possessions.
Knowledge
or
techniques
have
been
acquired
through
exploration.
The
techniques
may
have
medical
applications
which
can
improve
the
length
or
quality
of
our
lives.
We
have
already
benefited
from
other
spin?offs
including
improvements
in
earthquake
prediction,
in
satellites
for
weather
forecasting
and
in
communications
systems.
Even
non?stick
pans
and
mirrored
sunglasses
are
by?products
(副产品)
of
technological
developments
in
the
space
industry!
While
many
resources
are
spent
on
what
seems
a
small
return,
the
exploration
of
space
allows
creative,
brave
and
intelligent
members
of
our
species
to
focus
on
what
may
serve
to
save
us.
While
space
may
hold
many
wonders
and
explanations
of
how
the
universe
was
formed
or
how
it
works，it
also
holds
dangers.
The
danger
exists,
but
knowledge
can
help
human
beings
to
survive.
Without
the
ability
to
reach
out
across
space,
the
chance
to
save
ourselves
might
not
exist.
While
Earth
is
the
only
planet
known
to
support
life,
surely
the
adaptive
ability
of
humans
would
allow
us
to
live
on
other
planets.
It
is
true
that
the
lifestyle
would
be
different,
but
human
life
and
cultures
have
adapted
in
the
past
and
surely
could
in
the
future.
1．Why
does
the
author
mention
the
questions
in
Paragraph
1?
A．To
express
his
doubts.
B．To
compare
different
ideas.
C．To
introduce
points
for
discussion.
D．To
describe
the
conditions
on
Earth.
2．What
is
the
reason
for
exploring
space
based
on
Paragraph
2?
A．Humans
are
nature?born
to
do
so.
B．Humans
have
the
tendency
to
fight.
C．Humans
may
find
new
sources
of
food.
D．Humans
don't
like
to
stay
in
the
same
place.
3．The
underlined
word
“spin?offs”
in
Paragraph
4
probably
refers
to
________.
A．survival
chances
B．potential
resources
C．unexpected
benefits
D．physical
possessions
4．What
makes
it
possible
for
humans
to
live
on
other
planets?
A．Our
genetic
makeup.

on
the
earth.

adaptive
ability
of
humans.
D．By?products
in
space
exploration.
5．Which
of
the
statements
can
best
sum

exploration
has
created
many
wonders.
B．Space
exploration
provides
the
best
value
for
money.
C．Space
exploration
can
benefit
science
and
technology.

exploration
may
help

Ⅲ.七选五
If
anyone
had
told
me
three
years
ago
that
I
would
be
spending
most
of
my
weekends
camping,
I
would
have
laughed
heartily.
Campers,
in
my
eyes,
were
people
who
enjoyed
insect
bites,
ill?cooked
meals,
and
uncomfortable
sleeping
bags.
They
had
nothing
in
common
with
me.
__1__
The
friends
who
introduced
me
to
camping
thought
that
it
meant
to
be
a
pioneer.__2__
We
slept
in
a
tent,
cooked
over
an
open
fire,
and
walked
a
long
distance
to
take
the
shower
and
use
the
bathroom.
This
brief
visit
with
Mother
Nature
cost
me
two
days
off
from
work,
recovering
from
a
bad
case
of
sunburn
and
the
doctor's
bill
for
my
son's
food
poisoning.
I
was,
nevertheless,
talked
into
going
on
another
fun?filled
holiday
in
the
wilderness.
__3__
Instead,
we
had
a
pop?up
camper
with
comfortable
beds
and
an
air
conditioner.
My
nature?loving
friends
had
remembered
to
bring
all
the
necessities
of
life.
__4__
We
have
done
a
lot
of
it
since.
Recently,
we
bought
a
twenty?eight?foot
travel
trailer
complete
with
a
bathroom
and
a
built?in
TV
set.
There
is
a
separate
bedroom,
a
modern
kitchen
with
a
refrigerator.
The
trailer
even
has
matching
carpet
and
curtains.
__5__
It
must
be
true
that
sooner
or
later,
everyone
finds
his
or
her
way
back
to
nature.
I
recommend
that
you
find
your
way
in
style.
A．This
time
there
was
no
tent.
B．Things
are
going
to
be
improved.
C．The
trip
they
took
me
on
was
a
rough
one.
D．I
was
to
learn
a
lot
about
camping
since
then,
however.
E．I
must
say
that
I
have
certainly
come
to
enjoy
camping.
F．After
the
trip,
my
family
became
quite
interested
in
camping.
G．There
was
no
shade
as
the
trees
were
no
more
than
3
feet
tall.

1．答案与解析：C 推理判断题。作者在第一段提出问题是在吸引读者的兴趣，引起人们对其进行讨论。故选择C项。
2．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。从第二段可知人类的基因构成使得人类具有不断探索的自然本性。故选择A项。
3．答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。根据下文“...improvements
in
earthquake
prediction，in
satellites
for
weather
forecasting
and
in
...are
by?products(副产品)
of
technological
developments
in
the
space
industry！”可知，科学的进步与发展已经给我们带来了很多益处，所以spin?offs的意思是unexpected
benefits。
4．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。从第六段第一句话“...surely
the adaptive
ability
of
humans
would
allow
us
to
live
on
other
planets.”可知C项正确。
5．答案与解析：D 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了人类为什么要探索太空及人类可以从不断探索中受益，怎样避免潜在的危险，故选择D项。
Ⅲ.七选五
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己近三年来逐渐改变了对野营的看法，从以前对野营活动嗤之以鼻，经过几次野营后慢慢喜欢上了野营，最后表达野营将逐渐成为人类回归自然的很好方式，建议人们找到属于自己的方式。
1．答案与解析：D 上文
They
had
nothing
in
common
with
me
说明作者原来认为他不会成为野营者。而下文主要描述是“我”从最开始进行“rough
travel”到有了“pop?up
camper”(弹出式野营车)再到有了
trailer
的过程，在这过程中作者对野营的爱好逐步增加，对野营的相关知识也在逐步增长，上下文呈转折关系。D项意为“然而在那之后我将会学到关于野营的很多知识”，起到转折作用，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为D。
2．答案与解析：C 由下文
We
slept
in
a
tent，cooked
over
an
open
fire，and
walked
a
long
distance
to
take
the
shower
and
use
the
bathroom
可知，“我”的野营条件非常艰苦。C项意为“他们带我去的旅途非常艰苦”，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为C。
3．答案与解析：A 由下文
Instead，we
had
a
pop?up
camper
with
comfortable
beds
and
an
air
conditioner
可知，空格处是与下文形成转折的内容，而“我”此次旅行用了展开式营房。A项意为“这一次没有帐篷”，与下文形成转折，符合语境。故正确答案为A。
4．答案与解析：F 由第三段第一句
going
on
another
fun?filled
holiday
可知，“我”对这次旅行非常满意，而由下文
We
have
done
a
lot
of
it
since
可知，“我们”都爱上了野营。F项意为“从这里旅行后，我全家都对野营产生了巨大的兴趣”，承上启下，符合语境。故正确答案为F。
5．答案与解析：E 由下文
sooner
or
later，everyone
finds
his
or
her
way
back
to
nature
可知，“我”希望每个人都能找到回归自然，也就是野营的个性化选择。形成这一观点的前提是“我”自己已经爱上了野营。E项意为“我必须承认我已经开始享受野营了”，引出下文，符合语境。故正确答案为E。
Ⅳ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 本文是学校生活类记叙文。Hudson夫人是作者的老师。一天，她带着一个走路一瘸一拐的女孩进了教室，包括作者在内的几个男孩取笑这个女孩。而Hudson夫人用激励、爱心和智慧教育了作者，启迪了他的心灵，作者从此不再孤立女孩。这段经历对作者的一生产生了很大的影响。
1．答案与解析：A 上文讲到Hudson夫人带着一个走路一瘸一拐的女孩进了教室，将这个女孩介绍给班里的孩子们，让大家“欢迎”她，所以选A。welcome“欢迎”；introduce“介绍”；recommend“推荐”；follow“跟随”。

3．答案与解析：D Hudson夫人先是将女孩带到了前排的一个座位上，接着弯下腰来在她的耳边“小声说话”，所以选D。spread“传播”；deliver“递送，发表
(演讲)，接生”；repeat“重复”；whisper“小声说”。
4．答案与解析：C Hudson夫人讲完数学题后，“宣布”该休息了，所以选C。cry“喊叫，哭”；sigh“叹气”；announce“宣布”；agree“同意”。
5．答案与解析：B 根据上文可知，老师宣布下课了，根据常识可推知，下课后，男孩子们先“跑了出去”，故raced
out符合语境。look
out“朝外看”；turn
up“出现，露面，调高
(音量等)”；give
up“放弃”。
6．答案与解析：C 上文提到男孩子们跑了出去，所以过了一会儿，作者应该是回到了“教室”。school“学校”；office“办公室”；classroom“教室”；platform“平台，月台，讲台”。
7．答案与解析：C Hudson夫人对作者说，“Jack，你是一个好人”，她是用表扬的方法来促使作者转变自己的做法，使作者友善对待新来的女生。guard“卫兵”；colleague“同事”；person“人”；speaker“说话者”。
8．答案与解析：A 作者取笑新来的女孩，Hudson夫人却说他是一个好人，这让作者感到有点“尴尬”，所以选A。embarrassed“尴尬的”；satisfied“满意的，满足的”；convinced“确信的”；worried“担忧的”。
9．答案与解析：C Hudson夫人对作者的正面“评价”
(说作者是个好人)让作者知道了老师是非常喜欢他在身边的。answer“回答，答案”；explanation“解释，说明”；comment“评论，评述”；prediction“预测，预言”。

11．答案与解析：A 参见上题解析。why“为什么”；how“如何，怎样”；when“何时”；where“哪里”。

13．答案与解析：D 上文提到作者孤立新同学，但老师却说他是个好人，所以作者心中疑惑：她“有可能”会猜到我们都说Margaret什么吗？她知道我有“多令人讨厌”吗？necessarily“必要地，必然地”；regularly“经常，定期地，有规律地”；hardly“几乎不”；possibly“可能”。
14．答案与解析：C 参见上题解析。greedy“贪婪的”；smart“聪明的，机灵的”；awful“糟糕的，极讨厌的”；outgoing“外向的，友好的”。
15．答案与解析：D 之后，作者设法让Margaret“加入”到了他们的团体中。refuse“拒绝”；praise“表扬，赞美”；separate“使分离，使分开”；include“包含，包括，加入”。
16．答案与解析：A 多年过去了，很多学校的回忆“逐渐消失”，但Hudson夫人给作者的“教训”却一直伴随着他。fade“逐渐消失，褪色”，exist“存在”；remain“继续存在”；refresh“恢复精神”。

Isabel
has
turned
down
two
job
offers
in
the
past
year.
The
first
job
she
considered
was
the
director
of
HR
for
a
company
in
Utah.
After
the
initial
interviews，she
felt
the
job
fit
her
except
for
the
location.
Still，she
flew
west
to
meet
the
hiring
manager.
The
hiring
manager
explained
that
Isabel
was
the
top
candidate
for
the
job
but
that，before
she
continued
with
the
process，she
should
better
understand
the
firm's
culture.
She
directed
Isabel
to
several
videos
of
the
company's
CEO，who
regularly
appeared
in
front
of
the
company
in
costume
as
part
of
morale
building
exercises
and
expected
his
senior
leaders
to
do
the
same.“Even
though
I
was
desperate
for
a
job，I
knew
I
couldn't
do
that，”
Isabel
says.
She
called
the
company
to
turn
down
the
job
and
explained
that
she
didn't
feel
there
was
a
cultural
fit.
A
few
months
later，she
had
an
interview
for
another
job：a
director
of
employee
relations
at
a
local
university.
After
several
interviews，the
hiring
manager
told
her
the
job
was
hers
if
she
wanted
it.
The
job
had
many
positives：it
provided
a
low
stress
environment，it
offered
great
benefits，and
the
university
was
an
employee
friendly
place.
But
the
job
was
relatively
junior
despite
the
title
and
Isabel
worried
it
wouldn't
be
challenging
enough.
Finally，she
turned
it
down.“It
would
be
great
to
have
a
pay
check
and
great
benefits
but
I
would
definitely
have
trouble
sleeping
at
night，”
she
says.
In
both
cases，she
was
frank
with
the
hiring
managers
about
why
she
wasn't
taking
the
jobs.“In
the
past，it
felt
like
dating，and
I
was
worried
about
hurting
people's
feelings，”she
says.
However，they
appreciated
her
frankness
and
thanked
her
for
her
honesty.
She
says
it
was
hard

A
Finding
a
suitable
name
for
a
baby
is
a
big
deal
in
China.
When
picking
out
a
Chinese
name,
parents
usually
select
two
or
three
characters
that
have
a
carefully
thought
out
meaning,
but
when
deciding
on
an
English
name,
many
of
them
struggle.
That's
where
Jessup
and
her
company,
Special
Name,
come
in.
In
the
last
few
years,
Jessup
has
helped
name
677,900
Chinese
babies,
and
earned
over
$400,000
in
the
process,
more
than
enough
to
pay
her
college
fees.
Jessup
came
up
with
the
idea
for
Special
Name
in
2015,
after
accompanying
her
father
on
a
business
trip
to
China.One
of
her
dad's
business
partners，a
Mrs.Wang,
asked
her
to
help
choose
an
English
name
for
her
daughter.
Jessup
felt
honored
and
quickly
realized
the
importance
of
choosing
a
proper
name
in
Chinese
culture.
The
woman
wanted
people
to
be
surprised
by
the
things
her
daughter
could
achieve,
so
Jessup
suggested
the
name“Eliza”
after
the
character
Eliza
Doolittle
from
the
play
Pygmalion.
Mrs.Wang
seemed
delighted
with
Jessup's
choice.“If
Mrs.Wang
needed
this
service，maybe
other
parents
would
as
well，”
Jessup
thought.
After
returning
to
UK,
Jessup
borrowed￡1,500
from
her
parents
and
paid
a
web
designer
to
build
a
website，she
then
spent
her
free
time
filling
up
a
database
(数据库)
with
around
4,000
English
names，associating
them
with
five
major
personality
characteristics,
like
honesty
and
optimism.
In
the
beginning,
Jessup
offered
the
service
for
free
to
promote
the
website,
but
later,
she
started
charging
fees.
The
business
is
almost
completely
self?sufficient,
requiring
only
a
small
team
in
China
that
manages
technical
operations.
She
updates
the
database
each
month,
allowing
her
to
focus
full?time
on
studies.
1．What's
the
purpose
of
Special
Name?
A．To
help
Chinese
teens
go
abroad.
B．To
strengthen
children's
personalities.
C．To
pick
an
English
name
for
a
Chinese
baby.
D．To
make
a
deal
with
Chinese
parents.
2．What
inspired
Jessup
to
set
up
Special
Name?
A．A
suggestion
from
a
business
partner.
B．Her
interest
in
Chinese
culture.
C．A
Chinese
mother's
request.
D．A
character
from
a
play.
3．What
did
Mrs.Wang
want
her
daughter
to
be
in
the
future?
A．A
woman
with
achievements.
B．A
famous
actress.
C．A
successful
businesswoman.
D．A
western
culture
expert.
4．What
can
we
infer
from
the
last
paragraph
about
Special
Name?
A．It
offers
free
service.
B．It's
updated
every
day.
C．It's
operated
completely
by
itself.
D．It
is
easy
to
manage.
B
Having
an
older
brother
comes
with
plenty
of
benefits.
However,
a
new
study
finds
an
interesting
downside:
children
with
older
brothers
take
longer
when
it
comes
to
developing
language
skills.
The
study,
conducted
by
a
group
of
researchers
in
Paris,
France,
builds
upon
early
research
that
having
older
brothers
is
associated
with
poor
linguistic
(语言的)
development.
Now,
researchers
say
they
have
come
to
a
more
specific
conclusion:
only
children
with
an
older
brother
show
these
linguistic
difficulties.
One
would
assume
(假设)
that
children
with
older
brothers
would
grow
up
around
more
conversation
on
a
daily
basis,
thus
speeding
up
their
language
development.
But
researchers
say
such
children
actually
take
longer
than
their
older
brothers
to
begin
developing
these
skills.
Researchers
studied
more
than
1,000
children
from
birth
to
the
age
of
five?and?a?half
years
old.
Each
child's
language
skills
were
tested
at
ages
2,
3,
and
5.5,
using
tests
specially
designed
to
measure
many
aspects
of
language
development
such
as
vocabulary
and
syntax
(句法).
What
the
research
team
discovered
was
significant:
children
with
an
older
brother
had,
on
average,
a
two?month
delay
in
their
language
development
compared
to
studied
children
with
an
older
sister.
As
far
as
explaining
this
phenomenon,
researchers
have
given
two
assumptions.
The
first
is
that
older
sisters
tend
to
talk
more
often
than
older
brothers,
which
would
make
up
for
parents
being
less
present
than
they
were
for
their
first
child.
The
second
assumption
is
that
older
sisters
usually
compete
with
their
brothers
and
sisters
less
than
older
brothers
for
their
parents'
attention.
So
far,
the
study's
authors
say
they
can't
say
for
certain
why
children
with
older
brothers
have
a
harder
time
developing
language
skills.
In
the
future
they'd
like
to
investigate
it
further.
5．What
does
the
word
“downside”
mean
in
the
first
paragraph?
A．slide.
B．advantage.
C．upside
down.
D．disadvantage.
6．What
can
be
learned
from
the
passage?
A．Children
with
older
brothers
will
speak
earlier.
B．No
one
knows
exactly
the
reason
why
children
with
brothers
speak
later.
C．Children
with
an
older
sister
had
a
two?month
delay
in
speaking.
D．Researchers
studied
over
1,000
children
of
all
ages.
7．What's
the
weakness
for
the
children
with
older
brothers?
A．The
parents
will
never
care
about
them
any
more.
B．The
older
brothers
will
always
fight
with
them.
C．The
development
speed
of
their
linguistic
skills
will
be
put
off.
D．They
won't
enjoy
life?long
close
relationships
with
the
older
brothers.
8．What's
the
best
title
of
the
passage?
A．Young
brothers
usually
speak
earlier?
B．Having
older
brothers
always
benefits
you?
C．Parents
love
older
brothers
more?
D．Sisters
often
compete
with
brothers?

Ⅲ.语法填空
【语篇解读】 本文为说明文。本文主要说明英国和美国的生活方式的不同。英国人的语言和美国既有相同点也有不同点。他们的驾驶方式不同，美国人坐在汽车的左边，而在英国，他们坐在汽车的右边。美国人吃炸鸡块用手指，而英国人用刀叉；美国人爱喝咖啡，而英国人喝茶。总体来说，英国人的生活方式更简单。
1．答案与解析：went 考查谓语动词的时态。句意：暑假期间我去英国参观了几个地方，在那里我了解到美国和英国在文化上是不同的。根据时间状语During
the
summer
可知谓语动词用一般过去时went。故填went。
2．答案与解析：where 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：暑假期间我去英国参观了几个地方，在那里我了解到美国和英国在文化上是不同的。分析本句可知，本句是非限制性定语从句。其中的several
places是先行词，在后面的定语从句中作地点状语。非限制性定语从句中作地点状语要用where。故填where。
3．答案与解析：including 考查非谓语动词做状语。句意：首先，英国干净得多，包括街道和空气。分析句子可知，本句是单句。所以空格处是非谓语，其中England也包括the
streets
and
the
air。在
the
streets
and
the
air前，用including，表示“包括”。故填including。
4．答案与解析：cultural 考查派生词。句意：在我的整个旅行经历中我了解到英国和美国在很多文化方面有相似之处，但也有不同之处。空格处在句中修饰名词ways，修饰名词一般用形容词。故填cultural。
5．答案与解析：ours 考查形容词性物主代词。句意：在英国，他们有不同的方言，所以他们的一些词和我们(美国)的不同。和their
words
呼应，用ours，表示“我们的话语”。故填ours。
6．答案与解析：of 考查介词。句意：他们的驾驶方法也不同。美国人坐在汽车的左边，而在英国，他们坐在汽车的右边。表示“他们的驾驶方式”要用“their
method
of
driving”。of表示“……的”。故填of。
7．答案与解析：differences 考查名词。句意：我们吃东西的方式也有很多不同。many一般用于修饰名词复数。可知空格处要用名词复数differences，故填differences。
8．答案与解析：the 考查冠词。句意：在美国，咖啡是成年人通常喝的最受欢迎的饮料。在英国，他们喝茶而不喝咖啡。多音节形容词
popular
的最高级用the
most
popular，故填the。
9．答案与解析：Generally 考查副词。句意：一般来说，我认为英国人的生活方式(比美国)简单得多。空格处在句中修饰整个句子，修饰句子一般用副词。“generally”意思为“总的来说，一般来说”，本空位于句首，第一个字母要大写，故填Generally。
10．答案与解析：simpler 考查比较级。句意：一般来说，我认为英国人的生活方式(比美国)简单得多。副词
much一般修饰比较级。空格处要用形容词的比较级simpler，表示“英国人的生活更简单”。故填simpler。

A
Black
holes?
White
galaxy?
Blue
planets?
Space
is
not
black，but
light
green,
a
team
of
astronomers
announced
on
January
10.
They
studied
the
light
sent
out
by
200,000
galaxies.
What
they
found
was
that
the
average
colour
of
the
universe
is
a
bit
greener
than
turquoise
(绿宝石)．
The
discovery
was
part
of
an
attempt
to
test
theories
about
how
stars
and
galaxies
form.
Most
astronomers
believe
that
the
universe
probably
started
with
a“blue
period”
when
young
blue
stars
filled
space.
Now
the
universe
is
in
a
“green
period”.
They
believe
it
will
finally
enter
a
“red
period”
when
the
older,
redder
stars
appear.
“The
reason
for
the
colour
changing
is
that
the
rate
of
stars
forming
is
changing，”
said
Ivan
Baldry,
an
astronomer
who
worked
to
find
the
average
colour
of
light
in
the
universe.
Research
presented
by
NASA
scientists
shows
that
the
highest
point
of
star?forming
may
have
occurred
earlier
than
previously
(以前)
believed.
It
was
probably
very
soon
after
the
“Big
Bang
(宇宙大爆炸)”
that
many
scientists
believe
it
gave
birth
to
the
universe.
There
is
no
way
any
human
could
actually
see
the
green
colour.“The
only
way
to
see
it
is
if
you
saw
all
the
universe
from
the
same
distance
away
and
it
was
not
moving，”
Baldry
said.
Baldry
and
his
co?worker,
Karl
Glaze?brook,
have
both
joked
about
possible
marketing
(营销)
opportunities
for
the
new
colour.
Perhaps
colour?of?the?universe
T?shirts
or
coffee
cups
could
become
popular.
But
Baldry
allowed，“I
don't
know
if
you
can
patent
(专利)
a
colour,
that's
not
our
business.
We
haven't
actually
been
to
a
paint
shop
yet
to
see
if
they
have
a
name
for
this.”
1．The
astronomers
discovered
the
colour
of
the
universe
________.
A．when
they
were
researching
on
the
age
of
the
universe
B．when
they
attempted
to
test
theories
about
the
forming
of
stars
and
galaxies
C．to
prove
that
the
universe
is
continuously
changing
D．and
showed
that
the
stars
and
galaxies
may
have
formed
earlier
than
previously
believed
2．According
to
the
astronomers,
________.
A．the
universe
is
changing
its
colour
all
the
time
B．all
the
heavenly
bodies
are
green
at
present
C．the
universe
has
changed
its
colour
several
times
D．the
universe
will
finally
turn
red
3．We
can
infer
that
the
most
popular
colour
of
T?shirts
would
be
________.
A．red
B．blue
C．green
D．light
green
4．Which
of
the
following
is
NOT
mentioned
in
the
passage?
A．No
human
can
see
the
real
colour
of
the
universe.
B．The
theory
of
“Big
Bang”
is
widely
received
by
scientists.
C．The
rate
of
stars
forming
is
causing
the
change
of
the
universe's
colour.
D．Humans
can
receive
light
from
at
least
200,000
galaxies.
B
A
home
science
experiment
recently
took
the
world
by
storm.
Two
teens
from
Toronto,
in
Canada,
sent
a
Lego
man
rising
above
the
Earth
and
captured
their
tiny
astronaut's
trip
on
film.
Mathew
Ho
and
Asad
Muhammad,
both
17,
used
a
weather
balloon
to
launch
their
plastic
lego
model
16
miles
above
the
Earth.
This
is
inside
a
part
of
Earth's
atmosphere.
The
two
teens
were
inspired
by
a
similar
project
performed
by
students
at
the
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
(MIT).
The
MIT
students
had
launched
a
weather
balloon
with
a
camera
into
near
space
and
taken
many
unusual
images
of
the
Earth.
Mathew
and
Asad
then
spent
four
months
figuring
out
how
to
launch
their
own
spacecraft
into
the
space.
Traveling
to
space
is
expensive
for
NASA,
but
Mathew
and
Asad
worked
hard
to
keep
their
costs
down.
They
bought
much
of
their
equipment
used
and
even
sewed
the
Lego
man's
parachute
(降落伞)
by
hand.
In
total,
the
project
cost
only
$400.
“We
had
a
lot
of
anxiety
on
launch
day
because
there
were
high
winds
when
we
were
going
up，”
Mathew
told
reporters.
They
had
to
pump
extra
helium
(氦)
into
the
balloon
so
that
it
would
rise
quickly
and
avoid
being
blown
too
far
off
course
by
the
strong
winds.
The
toy
astronaut's
journey
lasted
97
minutes
before
the
balloon
broke
and
he
fell
back
to
Earth.
Mathew
and
Asad
then
spent
two
weekends
looking
for
their
spacecraft.
It
had
landed
76
miles
away
from
the
launch
site.
The
student
scientists
are
currently
finishing
up
their
final
year
of
high
school
and
applying
for
colleges.
They
are
also
looking
into
more
do?it?yourself
space
projects.
“I
guess
the
sky
is
not
really
the
limit
anymore，”
Mathew
told
reporters.
“We
never
knew
we'd
get
this
far.
It's
been
a
lesson
for
us
that
hard
work
pays
off.”
5．By
saying
“took
the
world
by
storm”
in
the
first
paragraph,
the
writer
meant
the
experiment________.
A．destroyed
the
world
B．flooded
the
world
C．fascinated
the
world
D．managed
the
world
6．Which
of
the
following
about
the
students
at
the
Massachusetts
Institute
of
Technology
(MIT)
is
RIGHT?
A．They
were
examples
for
Mathew
Ho
and
Asad
Muhammad.
B．They
helped
Mathew
Ho
and
Asad
Muhammad
to
achieve
dream.
C．They
launched
weather
balloon
together
with
Mathew
Ho
and
Asad
Muhammad.
D．They
studied
with
Mathew
Ho
and
Asad
Muhammad
in
the
same
school.
7．How
did
Mathew
and
Asad
keep
their
costs
down?
A．By
sewing
the
weather
balloon
themselves.
B．By
borrowing
spacecraft
from
the
MIT
students.
C．By
making
their
spacecraft
by
hand.
D．By
using
second?hand
equipment.
8．What
problems
did
Mathew
and
Asad
have
on
launch
day?
A．They
ran
out
of
helium.
B．The
wind
was
too
strong.
C．The
balloon
suddenly
broke.
D．Their
spacecraft

stars
appear.”为该选项提供了依据。从第二段可看出宇宙的颜色由蓝到绿，最终将变而还未变红，所以C项中的已经变了几次不符合事实。而B项“all
the
heavenly
bodies”远远大于文中stars这一范围。A项中的all
the
time表示的频率过高。
3．答案与解析：D 综合第一段第三句“What
they
found
was
