Astronomy is the oldest science known to man.Thousands of years ago,man looked at the stars and wondered about the heavens.⑳ But man only saw the six planets that could be seen

by man with eyes alone.
The Greeks studied astronomy over 2,000 years ago.⑱ They could see the size,color,and brightness of a star.They could see its place in the sky.They watched the stars move as the seasons changed.⑱ But the Greeks had no tools to help themselves study the heavens.
Each new tool coming to the field of astronomy helped man reach out into space.Until there were telescopes that helped man see farther to the sky,man knew a little about the moon.Without the radio telescopes,we did not know that radio noises came from far in space.
Today,astronomy is a growing science.⑲ We have learned more in the past fifty years than in the whole history of astronomy.A new report said that the US scientists have discovered the 10th planet that is called 2003 UB313,but Pluto was kicked out of the nine planets of the Solar system by scientists recently.

The plan: turn the Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields,and then fill it with creatures from the earth.
This idea may sound like something from science fiction,but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.
This suggests the future for the “red planet” will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA this week. Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event. It comes as NASA is preparing a multibilliondollar Mars research programme.

“Turning the Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction,”said Dr.Michael Meyer,NASA's senior scientist. “Now,with scientists exploring the reality,we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing the Mars.”
Most scientists agree that the Mars could be turned into a little earth,although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal. But many experts are shocked by the idea.
“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet,”said Paul Murdin from the Institute of Astronomy,Cambridge,UK.
Over the past months,scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms. Europe and America's robot explorers have found the proof that water,mixed with soil,exists in large amounts on the planet.
In addition,two different groups of scientists announced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane(甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere;the gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes(微生物) living in the red planet's soil.
But scientists such as Dr.Lisa Pratt,a biologist at Indiana University,say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.
“Before we have even discovered if there is life on the Mars,we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms,all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,” said Dr.Lisa Pratt.
Monica Grady,a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum,London,shares this view.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for,” she said.“This is just wrong.”
语篇导读
本文是一篇科普说明文。在太空开拓人类新的生存领地一直是科幻小说的主题,也是人类一直希望实现的梦想。如今,美国的一部分科学家想把红色火星改造成蓝色的“生命天堂”。就这一提议且看科学家们唇枪舌剑辩得失。
24.The passage is about ________.
A.a plan turning the Mars into a little earth
B.the necessity of changing the Mars
C.finding water on the Mars
D.the Mars supporting life
解析:A 主旨大意题。由第一段可以看出,人们计划将火星变为一个小地球。后文就这一计划是否应该实施进行了探讨。故文章是围绕将火星变为小地球这一话题展开的。
25.Why is Dr.Lisa Pratt against the plan?
A.Water has been found on the Mars.

B.It will cost too much money and work.
C.The native life forms on the Mars would be destroyed.
D.The earth is being destroyed at an unbelievable speed.
解析:C 细节理解题。由倒数第三段可知,莉萨博士反对该计划的原因是担心火星上的微生物会受到破坏。
26.What could prove the existence of microbes living in the Mars' soil?
A.Liquid water on the Mars.
B.Some creatures on the Mars.
C.A lot of good soil on the Mars.
D.Signs of methane in the Mars' atmosphere.
解析:D 推理判断题。由倒数第四段可以看出,科学家在火星上发现了甲烷,而甲烷是生物排放出的一种气体。由此科学家认为火星上有微生物存在。
27.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.water is a key factor for life;without it,living on the Mars would be impossible
B.the project won't affect the native life forms supposed to live on the Mars
C.the idea turning the Mars into a little earth is nothing but science fiction
D.Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth project
解析:A 推理判断题。由倒数第五段可知,科学家对于能够在火星上发现生物非常有自信,因为欧洲和美国的机器人已经发现了水存在的证据。由此我们可推知,水是生命存在的重要因素。
There have been many great inventions,which have changed the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important today—the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things to travel long distances. For hundreds of years there were few inventions that have made as much effect as the wheel. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn't have to explore(开发) much any more. They began to work to make life better instead.
In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera,the electric light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today. The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions.The helicopter in 1909. Sound movies in 1926. The computer in 1928,and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was made. Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wear. The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live long lives. By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60. By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions

continued to be made. But man had a wish to explore again. The world is known to man but the stars are not yet. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries,including China and Japan,have made their steps into space.
语篇导读

Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives.For example,the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite.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 programmes 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 that the earth rotates.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.
语篇导读
本文是一篇科普说明文。文章对各种卫星的用途、卫星工作的状态以及人们对已损坏卫星的处理办法进行了解释说明。
32.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.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据第一段和第三段首句不难看出,卫星可以传递天气预报信息、拍摄地球照片、传递电视图片等,但是没说为飞行员提供食物,所以选择D项。
33.Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?
A.In order to take photographs.
B.In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.
C.In order to move away from its orbit.
D.In order to send television pictures.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据第三段内容可以看出,卫星之所以用和地球自转相同的速度绕地球旋转,是为了保持在一定位置上。显然B项正确。
34.What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?
A.A satellite.
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
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.
解析:C 词义猜测题。this在此替代前文的Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place,故选C项。
35.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.Broken satellites often crash into each other.
解析:A 细节理解题。根据最后一段不难看出A项正确。B项错在Every time;C项错在never;D项错在often,最后一句…they can crash into each other.中can“可能”在此表示对客观情况的推测,不是事实。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Tips for Cooking on a Tight Schedule
From my experience,there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often: ability,money and time.__36__ Money is a topic I'll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
1. Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready?__37__
2. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? __38__.It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
3.__39__ This may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start. __40__ And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!
A.Try new things.
B.Ability is easily improved.

C.Make three or four instead.
D.Understand your food better.
E.Cooking is a burden for many people.
F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.

语篇导读
本文讲述了一家公司研制出了一种可以喝的防晒液。
61.was_launched/has_been_launched
解析:考查动词的时态和语态。本句的主语是suncream,与launch为被动关系,故用被动语态;且根据语境可知,此处指已发生的事,应用一般过去时或现在完成时。
62.with
解析:考查介词。provide sb.with sth.为某人提供某物,为固定搭配,故填with。
63.longer
解析:考查形容词的比较级。日光浴者可以更长时间地吸收辐射而不用担心会被晒伤。根据语境可知,空处应用形容词的比较级。
64.Once
解析:考查连词。根据“这种防晒液一旦被摄入”可知,此处应填入引导条件状语从句的引导词,故用Once,意为“一旦”。
65.which
解析:考查定语从句的引导词。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,并在从句中作主语,修饰The suncream,故用which。
66.varieties
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
解析:考查名词复数。因空前有数词two,故使用variety的复数形式。
67.to_achieve
解析:考查非谓语动词。allow sb.to do sth.意为“允许某人做某事”,是固定用法。
68.every
解析:考查固定结构。阳光下每四个小时服用两毫升防晒液(推荐每次服用两盎司以上的清水)。“every+基数词+名词(复数形式)”意为“每隔……”。
69.so
解析:考查连词。根据空处前后分句的内容可知,前后两句之间为因果关系且为前因后果,故空处填so。
70.during
解析:考查介词。没有涂防晒霜,“我”在最高温时期在外面待了两个小时,甚至没有被晒红。根据语境可知,空处填during“在……期间”。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下画一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
One day,little Tony went to a shopping center with his parent. It was very crowded. Tony saw a toy on a shop window. He liked it so very much that he quickly walked into the shop. After looks at the toy for some time,he turned around and found where his parents were missing. Tony was scared and begun to cry.A woman saw him crying and telling him to wait outside a shop. Five minutes later,Tony saw parents. Mom said,“How nice to see you again!Dad and I were terrible worried.”Tony promised her that this would never happen again.
71.第一句:parent→parents 考查名词的数。由第五句和第八句可知Tony是和“parents”一起去了购物中心,故parent改为parents。
72.第三句:on→in 考查介词。Tony是“在商店橱窗(shop window)里”看到了玩具,故用in。
73.第四句:去掉very 考查句子结构。此句为so…that…句型,so用来修饰much,very为多余词汇,故去掉。
74.第五句:looks→looking

由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
考查非谓语动词。此句中After为介词,故looks改为looking。
75.第五句:where→that或去掉where 考查宾语从句。此句考查宾语从句的引导词。此处宾语从句不缺成分且意思完整,故用that引导(that也可以省略)。
76.第六句:begun→began 考查时态。begin的过去式应为began。
77.第七句:telling→told 考查并列谓语。此处and连接的是两个并列的谓语动词,前文用的是saw,故telling改为told。
78.第七句:a→the 考查冠词。此处提到的shop与上文提到的是同一个,故用定冠词the。
79.第八句:在saw后加his 考查代词。此处提到的父母是主人公Tony的父母,故加上代词his。
80.第九句:terrible→terribly 考查副词。形容词worried应用副词修饰,故terrible改为terribly。
