Unit
4-Space
exploration
单元综合能力测评卷
时间:100分钟
满分:120分
第一部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
It
seems
we
can't
get
off
the
planet
fast
enough.
Two
thirds
of
NASA's
money
is
spent
on
manned
space
exploration,
and
that
number
will
grow
with
the
USA's
decision
to
send
a
man
to
Mars
in
2037.
We've
seen
all
there
is
to
see
on
Earth,
right?
Wrong.
The
final
place
is
here,
under
the
surface
of
the
sea.
Heading
down
into
the
ocean,
human
limits
are
quickly
reached.
At
200
metres,
the
water
is
as
black
as
a
moonless
night.
Most
nuclear
submarines
(核潜艇)
would
implode
(内爆)
before
they
reach
1
km
down.
At
3
km—still
less
than
the
average
depth
of
the
ocean—there's
a
good
chance
that
you'll
discover
a
new
species.
The
deepest?diving
whales
go
no
further.
At
the
very
bottom,
about
11
km
down,
lies
the
Challenger
Deep,
the
deepest
part
of
the
Mariana
Trench
in
the
Pacific
Ocean.
Eighteen
humans
have
walked
on
the
Moon,
but
only
three
have
seen
the
Deep
with
their
own
eyes.
Yet
things
live
down
there.
Big
things.
A
very
loud
sound
was
once
heard
and
scientists
suggested
that
it
was
produced
by
an
animal
bigger
than
a
blue
whale,
the
largest
creature
known
on
the
planet.
In
the
late
1990s,
deep?water
submarine
was
dropped
in
the
Southern
Ocean,
and
passing
4,000
metres,
it
discovered
something
huge
passing
under
it.
Surprised?
Don't
be.
The
ocean
covers
70%
of
the
planet's
surface
and
we've
studied
less
than
5%
of
it.
We
know
more
about
the
dark
side
of
the
Moon
than
about
the
bottom
of
the
sea.
One
reason
that
we
explore
space
is
to
find
evidence
of
other
life
forms.
The
search
for
life
outside
of
Earth
is
important,
but
robots
can
look
under
the
dry
rocks
of
Mars
better
than
humans.
They're
absolutely
important
for
doing
ocean
research
too,
but
they
can't
look
under
the
sea.
The
cost
of
exploration
is
rising,
but
the
results
would
benefit
all
our
lives.
Understanding
the
oceans
will
help
us
find
new
sources
of
food,
drugs
and
energy.
Perhaps
now
it's
time
to
begin
a
new
period
of
sea
exploration.
Manned
exploration
of
space
is
science
fiction
(科幻小说).
The
adventure
of
the
deep
sea
is
science
fact.
1.What
do
we
know
about
the
Challenger
Deep?
A.Blue
whales
live
there.
B.No
one
has
ever
been
there.
C.People
are
terrified
by
the
sight
of
it.
D.It
is
the
deepest
known
location
on
Earth.
2.Why
do
we
need
to
explore
the
sea?
A.Sea
exploration
is
cheaper
than
ever
before.
B.We
have
explored
less
than
5%
of
the
sea.
C.It
will
help
improve
our
future
life.
D.It
will
benefit
space
exploration.
3.What
does
the
author
think
of
the
discovery
in
the
Southern
Ocean?
A.It's
surprising.
B.It's
no
wonder.
C.It's
worrying.
D.It's
no
success.
4.What
does
the
author
want
to
tell
us?
A.Space
exploration
is
of
little
value.
B.We
spend
too
much
money
on
space
travel.
C.Humans'
success
lies
in
how
much
they
explore
the
sea.
D.The
ocean
is
the
place
where
we
should
make
our
efforts.
B
What
are
your
retirement
plans?
Keep
working?
Get
more
exercise?
Or
learn
something
new?
You
may
put_them_on_hold.
There's
a
chance
that,
sooner
or
later,
you
might
have
to
move
further
than
you
were
thinking,
as
far
as
Mars.
On
Thursday,
National
Geographic
will
show
the
first?ever
Mars
show
home,
giving
earthlings
(地球人)
an
idea
of
what
their
life
could
look
like
on
the
Red
Planet.
In
the
not?so?distant
year
of
2037,
the
igloo?shaped
structure
could
be
the
home
of
your
future.
It
shows
a
house
built
using
recycled
spacecraft
(航天器)
parts
and
Martian
soil,
called
regolith,
which
has
been
microwaved
into
bricks.
Some
parts
of
the
home
are
recognizable—a
kitchen,
a
bedroom—but
there
are
fundamental
differences
that
are
important
to
human
survival.
As
the
Martian
atmosphere
is
around
one
hundredth
as
thick
as
the
Earth's,
people
will
need
permanent
(永久的)
shelter
from
the
sun;
society
will
move
largely
indoors.
Most
buildings
will
be
connected
by
underground
passages
and
the
houses
won't
have
windows.
The
homes
will
have
simulated
solar
lighting,
or
natural
light
that
has
been
bent
several
times.
Walls
will
need
to
be
10
to
12
feet
thick
to
protect
people
from
dangerous
rays
(光线)
that
can
pass
through
six
feet
of
steel,
and
a
double
air?locked
entrance
to
keep
the
home
under
proper
pressure.
“We
don't
think
of
our
houses
as
things
that
keep
us
alive,
but
on
Mars
your
house
will
be
a
survival
centre,”
says
Stephen
Petranek,
author
of
How
We'll
Live
on
Mars.
This
is
not
just
the
stuff
of
sci?fi.
“10
to
20
years
from
now
there
will
certainly
be
people
on
Mars,”
Petranek
says.
“We've
had
the
technology
for
30
years
to
land
people
on
Mars,
but
we
haven't
had
the
will,”
Petranek
says.
But
two
main
factors
have
“completely
swung
public
attitudes”.
The
private
companies'
participation
has
forced
government
agencies
to
speed
up
their
game,
and
influential
films
such
as
Gravity
and
The
Martian
have
caught
society's
eye.
5.What
do
the
underlined
words
“put
them
on
hold”
in
Paragraph
1
probably
mean?
A.Put
them
off.
B.Give
them
away.
C.Carry
them
through.
D.Take
them
seriously.
6.What
can
we
know
about
the
show
home
from
the
text?
A.It
has
no
windows
or
doors
due
to
security
concern.
B.Its
design
presents
the
idea
of
environmental
protection.
C.It
has
thick
walls
keeping
the
home
under
proper
pressure.
D.Its
underground
passages
connect
all
the
buildings
together.
7.According
to
Petranek,
what
has
sped
up
the
process
of
sending
people
to
Mars?
A.The
great
influence
of
the
Mars
show
home.
B.The
development
of
related
technology.
C.The
competition
from
private
companies.
D.The
popularity
of
influential
books
on
Mars.
8.What
is
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.Living
on
Mars:
Possible
or
Not
B.Sending
People
to
Mars:
Yes
or
No
C.First?ever
Show
Home:
How
Is
It
Made
D.Future
Home
on
Mars:
What
Will
It
Be
Like
C
Satellites
are
an
important
part
of
our
ordinary
lives.For
example,the
information
for
weather
forecasts
is
sent
by
satellites.Some
satellites
have
cameras
which
take
photographs
of
the
earth
to
show
how
clouds
are
moving.Satellites
are
also
used
to
connect
our
international
phone
calls.
Computer
connections
of
the
World
Wide
Web
and
Internet
also
use
satellites.Many
of
our
TV
programs
come
to
us
through
satellites.Airplane
pilots
also
sometimes
use
a
satellite
to
help
them
find
their
exact
location.
We
use
satellites
to
send
television
pictures
from
one
part
of
the
world
to
another.They
are
usually
35,880
kilometers
above
the
equator.Sometimes
we
can
see
a
satellite
in
the
sky
and
it
seems
to
stay
in
the
same
place.This
is
because
it
is
moving
around
the
world
at
11,000
kilometers
an
hour—exactly
the
same
speed
as
the
earth
rotates
(旋转)
at.A
satellite
must
orbit
the
earth
with
its
antennae
(天线)
facing
the
earth.Sometimes,it
moves
away
from
its
orbit.So
there
are
little
rockets
on
it
which
are
used
to
put
the
satellite
back
in
the
right
position.This
usually
happens
about
every
five
or
six
days.
Space
is
not
empty!Every
week,more
and
more
satellites
are
sent
into
space
to
orbit
the
earth.A
satellite
usually
works
for
about
10-12
years.Satellites
which
are
broken
are
sometimes
repaired
by
astronauts
or
sometimes
brought
back
to
the
earth
to
be
repaired.Often,very
old
or
broken
satellites
are
left
in
space
to
orbit
the
earth
for
a
very
long
time.This
is
very
serious
because
some
satellites
use
nuclear
power
and
they
can
crash
into
each
other.
9.What's
the
speed
the
earth
rotates
at?
A.35,880
kilometers
per
hour.
B.335,880
kilometers
per
hour.
C.11,000
kilometers
per
hour.
D.110,000
kilometers
per
hour.
10.Which
of
the
following
is
NOT
done
by
satellites
according
to
the
passage?
A.Sending
information
for
weather
forecasts.
B.Taking
photographs
of
the
earth.
C.Sending
TV
pictures.
D.Providing
food
for
airplane
pilots.
11.Which
is
true
of
satellites?
A.A
satellite
usually
works
for
about
10-12
years.
B.Every
time
a
satellite
gets
broken,it
is
brought
back
to
the
earth
to
be
repaired.
C.A
broken
satellite
is
never
left
in
space.
D.They
often
crash
into
each
other.
12.What
does
the
underlined
word
“This”
in
the
3rd
paragraph
refer
to?
A.A
satellite.
B.A
little
rocket.
C.A
satellite
seems
to
stay
in
the
same
place
in
the
sky.
D.The
satellite
puts
the
rockets
in
the
right
position.

第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We
all
have
plans
to
achieve
success
in
life,
but
what
we
are
lacking
is
the
motivation
that
keeps
us
going
to
put
plans
into
action.
Here
are
the
ways
that
can
effectively
ease
the
problem.
 16 
Just
grab
a
book,
especially
an
inspirational
book
or
a
book
of
success
stories.
You
can
learn
from
others
and
the
story
will
motivate
you
to
move
ahead
with
your
plans.
It
also
makes
you
refocus
your
energy
on
your
goals
rather
than
the
problems
at
hand.
Think
of
your
purpose.
 17 
Your
purpose
could
be
to
improve
the
life
of
others,
or
help
people
to
do
things
more
efficiently.
Thinking
of
your
purpose
is
an
important
way
to
motivate
you.
Talk
to
a
supportive
friend.
Talking
to
a
supportive
friend
would
be
able
to
overcome
the
problem
of
lacking
motivation.
Find
someone
that
you
are
comfortable
with
and
share
your
problems
with
him.
 18 
Go
through
your
goals
daily.
Prepare
a
list
of
goals
that
you
want
to
achieve
and
go
through
your
goals
at
least
once
a
day.
 19 
By
doing
this,
you
refresh
your
mind
with
the
goals
you
have
set
for
yourself.
Do
it
at
once.
Another
way
is
to
get
started
with
what
you
need
to
do.
__20__
But
by
forcing
yourself
to
just
do
it,
you'll
probably
make
progress
little
by
little
and
without
realizing
it,
you
have
actually
finished
the
task
on
hand.
A.Read
a
book.
B.See
a
motivational
film.
C.You
should
have
plans
to
achieve
success.
D.After
it,
you
will
feel
recharged
and
re?energized.
E.Think
of
why
you
want
to
achieve
what
you
want.
F.Sometimes
you
don't
feel
like
doing
what
you
want
to
do.
G.You
need
to
do
this
even
more
if
you
feel
down
and
have
no
motivation.
第二部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
An
old
man
lived
in
a
nice
house
with
a
large
garden.
He
took
care
of
his
__21__all
the
time,
watering
and
fertilizing
them.
One
day
a
young
man
went
by
the
__22__.He
looked
at
the
beautiful
flowers,
imagining
how
happy
he
could
be
__23__he
lived
in
such
a
beautiful
place.
Then,
suddenly
he
found
the
old
gardener
was
__24__.
He
was
very
surprised
about
this
and
asked,
“You
can't
see
these
flowers.
__25__are
you
busy
taking
care
of
them
every
day?”
The
old
man
smiled
and
said,
“I
can
tell
you
four
__26__.
First,
I
was
a
gardener
when
I
was
young,
and
I
really
like
this
job.
Second,
__27__I
can't
see
these
flowers,
I
can
touch
them.
__28__,
I
can
smell
the
sweetness
of
them.
As
to
the
last
one,
that's
__29__.”
“Me?
But
you
don't
know
me,”
said
the
young
man.
“Yeah,
it's
__30__
that
I
don't
know
you.
But
I
know
that
flowers
are
angels
that
everybody
__31__.
We
enjoy
the
happiness
these
flowers
have
brought
us.”
The
blind
man's
work
opened
our
eyes,
and
__32__
our
hearts,
which
also
made
his
life
__33__.
It
was
just
like
Beethoven,
who
became
deaf
in
his
later
life
and
wrote
many
great
musical
works.
Beethoven
himself
couldn't
__34__
his
wonderful
music,
but
his
music
has
__35__
millions
of
people
to
face
their
difficulties
bravely.
Isn't
it
one
kind
of
happiness?

For
many
years,
I
had
a
recurring
(重复出现的)
dream.
I
was
a
little
girl
again,
rushing
about,
trying
to
get
ready
for
school.
“Hurry,
you'll
be
late
for
school,”
my
mother
called
to
me.
“I
am
hurrying,
Mom!
What
did
I
do
with
my
books?”
Deep
inside
I
knew
where
the
dream
came
from.
It
was
about
some
unfinished
business
in
my
life.
As
a
kid,
I
loved
everything
about
school.
I
loved
books,
teachers,
tests
and
homework.
Most
of
all
I
longed
to
someday
march
down
the
aisle
(通道)
to
receive
my
diploma.
That
seemed
more
appealing
even
than
getting
married.
But
at
15,
I
had
to
drop
out
because
my
parents
couldn't
afford
tuition
(学费).
My
hope
of
getting
a
diploma
was
dead,
or
so
I
thought.
Pretty
soon,
I
married
and
had
three
children,
and
I
thought:
“There
goes
my
diploma.”
Even
so,
I
wanted
my
children
to
be
educated.
But
Linda,
our
youngest
child,
had
juvenile
arthritis
(幼年型关节炎)
in
her
hands
and
knees,
which
made
it
impossible
for
her
to
function
in
a
normal
classroom.
I
felt
really
sorry
for
her
and
I
didn't
want
her
to
live
her
life
with
regret.
I
didn't
give
up
hope
of
her
being
back
to
school
in
some
way.
One
day,
I
saw
an
ad
in
the
newspaper
for
evening
courses.
“That's
the
answer,”I
said
to
myself.
Linda
always
feels
better
in
the
evening,
so
I'll
just
sign
her
up
for
night
school.
Linda
was
busy
filling
out
enrollment
(入学)
forms
when
the
secretary
said:
“Mrs.
Schantz,
why
don't
you
come
back
to
school?”
I
laughed:
“There's
no
way!
I'm
55!”But
he
persisted,
and
before
I
knew
what
I
had
done,
I
was
enrolled
for
classes
in
English
and
crafts.
“This
is
only
an
experiment,”
I
warned
him,
but
he
just
smiled.
So,
I
told
myself
to
try
for
just
a
semester
and
to
see
if
it
would
work.
Anyway,
my
dream
was
still
there
in
my
heart.

Dear
Sir/Madam,
I'm
Li
Hua,
an
exchange
student
from
China.
Learning
that
volunteer
students
are
wanted
for
a
Chinese
painting
exhibition,
I'm
writing
to
apply
for
the
position.
I
think
I'm
quite
equal
to
the
post.
To
begin
with,
being
exposed
to
English
since
a
young
age
enables
me
to
communicate
fluently
with
others.
Besides,
years
of
being
monitor
makes
me
a
brilliant
organizer,
which
will
help
a
lot
to
keep
the
exhibition
in
order.
Additionally,
I
can
make
full
use
of
my
related
knowledge
to
help
the
visitors
learn
more
about
the
unique
Chinese
art
form.
I
would
be
grateful
if
you
could
take
my
application
into
consideration.
Looking
forward
to
your
early
reply.
Yours,
Li
Hua
【故事续写】
Paragraph
1:
It
was
exciting
to
go
to
school
again
but
it
was
no
game.
Sitting
in
a
classroom
full
of
kids
was
awkward,
even
if
most
of
them
were
respectful
and
encouraging.
During
the
day,
I
was
still
a
busy
married
woman
having
loads
of
housework
to
do.
In
the
evening,
I
was
a
hardworking
student
working
on
my
courses.
To
my
surprise,
both
Linda
and
I
did
very
well
in
night
school.
I
went
back
again
the
next
semester,
and
my
grades
steadily
improved.
Paragraph
2:
Linda
and
I
saw
each
other
through
the
time.
When
I
was
down,
Linda
encouraged
me.
“Mom,
you
can't
quit
now!”
And
when
she
was
down,
I
encouraged
her.
I
have
to
say
it
was
a
time
which
was
really
hard
on
both
of
us.
But
neither
of
us
gave
up.
At
last,
I
got
my
diploma.
To
my
surprise,
almost
all
of
my
classmates
voted
for
me
to
be
class
speaker,
and
I
got
a
$3,000
college
scholarship.
The
unfinished
business
in
my
dreams
was
eventually
finished.
