8.C 主旨大意题。根据全文可知,文章主要介绍了查尔斯·菲利普计划创建更多微型科学博物馆,使人们更容易获得完全免费的科学研究。所以“TinyScienceMuseumsHaveBigIdeas”作为文章标题最为合适。Ⅴ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代物理学中最伟大的科学家爱因斯坦。1.courageous 考查形容词。根据名词figure可知,修饰名词应该用形容词,故填courageous。2.the 考查冠词。根据下文“oftheentranceexam”可知,the表示特指考试的综合部分,符合语境。3.obtaining 考查非谓语动词。分析句式结构可知,despite是介词,所以此处应该用提示词的动名词形式。故填obtaining。4.entering 考查非谓语动词。分析句式结构可知,enter和主语he之间是主动关系,所以此处用现在分词作伴随状语,故填entering。5.Tomake 考查非谓语动词。分析句意可知,此处表目的,所以用动词不定式表目的,故填Tomake。6.for 考查介词。根据名词passion可知,此处用介词for搭配表示“对……的热情”符合语境。7.gradually 考查副词。分析句式结构可知,修饰动词became应用副词,故填gradually。8.wasawarded 考查动词的时态和语态。分析句意可知,主语he和award之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态。时间状语为In1922,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故填wasawarded。9.when 考查时间状语从句。结合句意并分析句式结构可知,此处是时间状语从句,所以用when来引导,故填when。10.researcher 考查名词。此处指人,再根据空格前的不定冠词a可知,应该用单数形式作宾语,故填researcher。Ⅵ.Today,withourphysicsteacher’shelp,wecarriedoutaninterestingexperimentinclass.Beforewestarted,wepreparedacandle,abasin,somewaterandaglassandtheglassmustbealittlehigherthanthecandle.First,weletthecandlestandatthebottomofthebasinandpouredsomewaterintothebasin.Thenwelitthecandleandcovereditwiththeglassthatwasfullofair.Wewaiteduntilthecandlewentout.
