七、阅读理解。(15×2 分=30 分)
A(辽宁抚顺)
A lot of great inventions have made our life easier. Do you know that in the
beginning some of them were not used in our daily life?
Water purification system
(水净化系统)
In the 1960s, NASA created a way to purify
astronauts' drinking water by adding silver
ions into spacecraft's water supply system(向
航天器供水系统中添加银离子). This technology
is now widely used to help keep the water in
swimming pools clean.
Camera phones
In the 1990s, a team at the Jet Propulsion
Laboratory(JPL) worked to create cameras small
enough to fit on spacecraft. Now lots of cameras
use this technology, which makes camera phones
possible.
Memory foam(记忆海绵)
It was developed by NASA in the 1970s to help
make pilots' seats more comfortable. Today
memory foam is used to make more comfortable
beds, chairs, sofas and even shoes.5
Freezedried food
(冻干食品)
NASA did a lot of research on space food.
One important thing was that they found a way
of keeping food—freezedrying. It keeps 98% of
the nutrients(营养物) of the food, but the food
weighs about 80% less. Now freezedried food is
often used by campers and included in emergency
kits(应急包).
(A)46.The water purification system was developed in the ________.
A.1960s B.1970s C.1980s D.1990s
(B)47.Which of the following was created by JPL?
A.Memory foam. B.Small cameras.
C.Freezedried food. D.Water purification system.

Nobody knows who invented the pencil or when it was invented. A Swiss described
a pencil in a book in 1565. He said it was a piece of wood with lead(铅) inside
it. Pencils weren't popular at that time, and people continued to write with pens.
In 1795, someone started making pencils from graphite(石墨) and they became very
popular. Today, people make pencils in the same way. They put graphite inside a piece
of wood. One pencil can make a line as long as 55 kilometers.
When people wrote with pens, they had to put the penpoint into ink after writing
every few letters. Later someone invented a fountain pen(自来水笔) and this kind
of pen could hold ink inside it. A fountain pen can write several pages before you
have to fill it again.
Two brothers, Ladislao and Georg Biro, invented the ballpoint pen that we all
use today. They left their country Hungary and started producing ballpoint pens in
Britain in 1943 during World War Ⅱ. Later, a French company called Bic bought the
Biro brothers' company. Someone calls ballpoint pens bics. Australians call them
biros. Whatever they are called, we use them every day.
(D)51.When was the pencil invented according to the passage?
A.In 1565. B.In 1795. C.In 1943. D.Before 1565.
(A)52.What do people use to make pencils today?6

(C)53.What does the underlined word “penpoint” mean in Chinese?
A.笔杆 B.笔帽 C.笔尖 D.笔筒
(D)54.Where were Ladislao and Georg Biro from?
A.America. B.Australia. C.Britain. D.Hungary.

C(2019 湖南衡阳)
The world's largest radio telescope was finished on Sept. 25, 2017 in China.
FAST is a fivehundredmeter telescope. It is also called Tianyan(“The Eye
of Heaven”), with a dish the size of 30 football grounds, deep in the mountains
of Southwest China's Guizhou Province. The giant dish is built on a bowllike
valley.
The surrounding area has “radio silence” as there are no towns and cities
within a 5kilometer radius( 半 径 范 围 ) and only one county center within 25
kilometers.
FAST is made up of 4,450 panels(面板). The second largest radio telescope is
in Russia. The bigger dish will be able to pick up weaker signals(信号).
The radio telescope is like an ear, listening to tell meaningful radio messages
from white noise in the universe. With the help of the telescope, we can receive
weaker and more radio messages far away in space. It will help us to search for
intelligent life outside of the Galaxy(银河系) and explore the origins(起源) of the
universe. “Any of its discoveries will lead to a Nobel Prize,” said Joseph
Taylor, a Noble Prize winner.
The FAST project began in 2011. And the telescope is expected to remain the global
leader for the next 10 to 20 years.
(A)56.Where was FAST developed?
A.In China. B.In Russia. C.In America.
(B)57.The underlined word “giant” probably means “________” in Chinese.
A.神秘的 B.巨大的 C.宽广的
(B)58.FAST is used to ________.
A.explore the origins of human beings
B.receive distant radio messages from the universe
C.watch the beautiful scenery of the Galaxy
(A)59.From the passage, we can know that ________.
A.FAST is the largest radio telescope all over the world so far
B.noisy towns are around the telescope within a 5kilometer radius
C.the secondlargest radio telescope is made up of 4, 450 panels
(C)60.How long did it take to finish the FAST project?
A.About twenty years. B.About ten years.
C . About six years. 7

Today, we use cameras almost every day. Some people even have cameras built into
their phones or tablets. But when was the camera invented?
Chinese and Greek scientists were experimenting with light and color as early
as the 4th century. The “ camera ” was first designed( 设 计 ) to watch solar
eclipses(日食) without looking directly at them. 71.__C__ Today, you can fit a camera
into your pocket, but the first cameras were not so portable(便携式的).
The images that you could see through these first cameras were not permanent(永久
的) either. There was no way to “catch” the images like we do today. 72.__A__ Louis
Jaques Mande Daguerre then found a way to develop an image—a way to keep it from
disappearing. The method was brought to the United States by Samuel Morse.
Other inventors created ways for photographic images to be caught on other
materials. In the late 1800s, George Eastman produced a kind of paper on which an
image could be developed. 73.__E__ In 1900, Eastman went a step further and created
the “Brownie”, a handheld camera.
74.__B__ Over time, cameras have got smaller and now images can be stored forever.
75.__D__ Instead they just use the ones that are built into their cell phones!
A.In 1840, Alexander Wolcott discovered a way to make the images remain on the
camera.
B.The Brownie was inexpensive, and it remained popular until the 1960s.
C.The first type of camera was invented by Giovanni Batista Della Porte in
1558.
D.Today, many people don't even have a regular “camera”.8
E.This allowed for the creation of permanent photographs on paper.

假设你们学校的英语角这周谈论的话题是“手机的发展史”。请你从手机的发明时间
(1973 年)、外观(large,heavy)和用途等方面,在英语角和同学们谈论一下它的发展变化,
并描述你对未来手机的畅想。
Cell phones are becoming more and more important in our daily lives.Do you know
the history of cell phones?The first cell phone was invented in 1973.At that
time,it was like a building brick and much heavier than the cell phone today.Cell
phones have many uses.For example,we can use cell phones to talk to others at any
time.We can also use cell phones to take photos,listen to music or surf the
Internet.
I believe that cell phones will become thinner and thinner and that smartphones
will take the place of computers in the future.
