1、 Unit 4　Astronomy: the science of the stars (時(shí)間：90分鐘　滿分：110分) 第一部分　閱讀理解(共兩節(jié)；滿分30分) 第一節(jié)　(共10小題；每小題2分，滿分20分) 閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 A What science fiction (story) once told about other worlds far away is now a fact. Astronomers (experts at the science of the universe) prove another

2、 solar(of the sun)system like ours with some planets in the constellation Andromeda(仙女座)． Geoffrey Marcy is a professor of astronomy and physics at San Francisco State University and says, “What we have found now，for the first time ever, is indeed a fully－grown system－of planets around the star Ups

3、ilon Andromeda. It appears to have three planets，one close in，one at a middle distance，and one farther out. The star is slightly larger than our sun. The planets are huge，like our Jupiter(木星)．” Marcy's partner in this research，Debra Fischer, describes the solar system，“Here are the inner planet tha

4、t goes around every 46 days, the middle planet that goes around every 242 days, and then the outer planet that goes around every three and a half to four years.” Astronomically, it's not far away, 44 light years. The sun of that solar system，Upsilon Andromeda，is so near and bright that it can be se

5、en by using no equipment during summer and fall. For twelve years astronomers searched the skies in the belief that if our sun has planets around it, surely others do, too. Geoffrey Marcy says, “And then starting three and a half years ago, we began finding for the first time planets singly, one pl

6、anet here around one star...” “When I look up at the stars now at night, I can imagine easily that every one of them has planets around them，” says Debra Fischer. It was a tremble (shaking)in the star that led Marcy to the planets. “The star rocks around due to the gravity of the planet as a dog

7、owner gets pulled around by a little dog.” Can they support life? We don't know, because present technology is not advanced enough to determine what the planets are made of. That, Marcy says，is astronomy's next challenge. 1．What's the relation between Andromeda (A), Upsilon Andromeda system(U)

8、and the mentioned three planets(P)? 推薦精選 A 　　　　 B C 推薦精選 　　　　 D 答案與解析：B　推理判斷題。通讀全文可知Andromeda是一個(gè)星座，像太陽(yáng)系；Upsilon Andromeda是一顆恒星，像太陽(yáng)；three planets是它的三個(gè)衛(wèi)星，因此可推出B項(xiàng)正確。 2．According to Debra Fischer，in the new solar system, ________. A．the farther a planet is from the star, the lon

9、ger it takes to go around the star B．the larger a planet is，the shorter it takes to go around the star C．it takes all the planets around three and a half to four years to go around the star D．the planets move around the star at the same(均勻) speed 答案與解析：A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)天文常識(shí)及本文所述，任何行星的衛(wèi)星的運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)周期不可能是一致的，越是遠(yuǎn)

10、離行星，一般運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)周期越長(zhǎng)。 3．What led to Marcy's discovery of the planets? A．That he found a dog owner was pulled by his dog. B．The tremble of Upsilon Andromeda. C．That any planet has gravity. D．That he believes any star has its planets. 答案與解析：B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第二段可知。 4．We can infer that the scientists are _____

11、___. A．to find out whether the planets can support life B．to find means to communicate with the living beings on the planets C．to find means to travel to the planets D．soon to be able to answer the question of whether there is life on these planets 答案與解析：A　推理判斷題。其他幾項(xiàng)提到的不是本文重點(diǎn)或沒提及。 B The earth

12、 is the only planet that scientists think has life. Why does the earth have life while the other planets (行星) don't? For one thing, the earth is just the right temperature. As the_third_planet from the sun, the earth seems to be just the right distance away. The planets which are closer to the sun a

13、re hot that their surfaces bake (烘烤) in the sun. The farthest planets are cold balls. When the earth developed — which scientists believe may have happened about 4 billion years ago — many gases covered the earth. The gases caused the earth to be hot. But something wonderful happened. The temperatu

14、re was just right for thick clouds to form. It rained very hard for a very long time. This gave the earth its oceans. Water made it possible for plants to grow. The plants created oxygen in the atmosphere. Oxygen is the gas that humans and animals breathe. 推薦精選 Only one other planet in the solar

15、 system seems to be something like the earth. That planet is Mars (火星). Mars is smaller than the earth, and it is quite a bit cooler. But it is not too cold for humans. On some days, the temperatures are as low as a winter day in the northern United States. If you wore a special space suit, you cou

16、ld walk around on Mars. You would have to bring your own air to breathe, the air on Mars is too thin to breathe. Mars has the largest volcano (火山) in the solar system. It is sixteen miles high. The highest volcano on the earth is five miles high. The most unexpected (未預(yù)測(cè)到的) sight on Mars is dried

17、 up river beds. Scientists believe that Mars was once much better than it is now. Does this mean there could have been living things on Mars? Scientists are not sure, but there has been no sign so far. 5．Which of the following is NOT the reason that the earth has life? A. The earth is just the r

18、ight temperature. B. The volcanos on earth are lower than those on Mars. C. There is oxygen in the atmosphere of the earth. D. The earth seems to be just the right distance away from the sun. 答案與解析：B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文中提到地球是可證實(shí)的唯一有生命存在的太陽(yáng)系行星，其原因包括地球合適的溫度、距太陽(yáng)距離適中和大氣里含有氧氣等。B項(xiàng)火山與此無(wú)關(guān)。 6．The underlined phrase

19、“the third planet” in the first paragraph refers to ________. A. the Sun B. the Moon C. the Earth D. the Mars 答案與解析：C　詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第一段中內(nèi)容可知距離太陽(yáng)第三遠(yuǎn)的行星指的是地球。 7．Which of the following about the Mars is NOT true? A. There could have been living things on Mars

20、. B. Mars has the largest volcano in the solar system. C. There is almost no oxygen in the air on Mars. D. Mars is smaller than the earth, and it is quite a bit cooler. 答案與解析：A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章最后一段提到火星上有干涸的河床的跡象，但這一點(diǎn)并不能證實(shí)火星上存在生命，因?yàn)檫€沒有生命跡象，故A項(xiàng)不正確。其他三項(xiàng)都與文章相符。 C Many of us are fascinated by time travel.

21、Who wouldn't be enthralled by returning to the past or seeing the future? But time travel seems to be possible only in our imagination — or in most cases, in science fiction. Science fiction is a world where impossible things can become possible. But science fiction is not entirely fiction since it

22、 is based on science theories and principles. I have compiled some of the popular ways by which time travel is made possible in fiction books： 推薦精選 ●Through the wormhole(蟲孔)— It is a shortcut between points in space－time. According to Einstein, an object can pass through this if it can travel at

23、 the speed of light with infinite mass. An example of a wormhole is described in Riddle of the Red Bible. ●Through a black hole — A black hole is a vacuum in space where light cannot even escape or pass through. In some sci－fi movies, like Star Trek, black holes become the means to travel through t

24、ime. ●Through time machines — In fiction, time machines are complex vehicles that can travel faster than light. A time machine can be a strange vehicle like TARDIS in Doctor Who or a specially modified car like the one used in Back to the Future. ●Through a parallel(平行的) universe — Another popular

25、 way to travel through time is to be able to slip or slide into a parallel universe where one can go back to a point in time and see a different reality. Though we know time travel may not be possible, it is still an entertaining subject and a heated topic for most of us. 語(yǔ)篇解讀　本文作者在文中介紹了科幻小說(shuō)里講述時(shí)間旅

26、行的幾種方式。 8．The underlined word “enthralled” in the first paragraph can be replaced by “________”． A．thrilled B．confused C．shocked D．upset 答案與解析：A　詞義猜測(cè)題。從第一段中的“Many of us are fascinated by time travel”和“returning to the past or seeing the future”可推知，畫線詞意為“被迷住的，著迷的”，與A項(xiàng)意思最為接近。 9．The means

27、of travelling through a black hole is described in ________. A．Doctor Who B．Back to the Future C．Star Trek D．Riddle of the Red Bible 答案與解析：C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從第四段中的“l(fā)ike Star Trek，black holes become the means to travel through time”可知選C。 10．Which of the following statements can be inferred from the pass

28、age? A．Time travel will never become possible even in the far future. B．Time travel through a time machine will be the most common means. C．Sci－fi writers have some similar experience as they describe in their fiction. D．Many ways of time travel are described in science fiction besides the

29、 mentioned fours. 答案與解析：D　推理判斷題。從第二段最后一句中的“some of the popular ways by which time travel is made possible in fiction books”這一信息可知，除了作者在文章中列舉的這些方式之外，科幻小說(shuō)里還介紹了其他方式。所以選D。 推薦精選 第二節(jié)　(共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 Friends are important to children.
