Scientists said the planet was the closest to Earth that has been seen. Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old. It has a 385-day year and orbits its star at the same distance as us. It is so like Earth that NASA believes it is possible that life once inhabited the planet. Kepler 452b is 60 percent larger in diameter (直徑) than Earth. Scientists say that the planet received the same kind of sunshine as we do on Earth. Thus, plants could survive if taken to the planet. Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth, scientists say it can show a possible future for earth. “If Kepler 452b is indeed a rocky planets, its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.” Said Doug Caldwell, a scientist working on the Kepler Mission. According to Caldwell, the increasing energy from its aging sun might be heating the surface and evaporating any oceans. Kepler 452b could be experiencing now what Earth will undergo more than a billion years from now, as the Sun ages and grows brighter. The discovery also gives new hope that alien(外星人) civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System. “We won’t be going to this planet but our children’s children’s children might be.” said Jeff Coughlin, another research scientist on the Kepler Mission. The Kepler space telescope (太空望遠鏡) has been looking for signs of new worlds outside the Solar System since May 2009, and has so far found more than 4,000 planets. But those planets are either too hot or too cold to sustain life. （注：Kepler Mission NASA 設(shè)計的發(fā)現(xiàn)類地行星的太空探索任務(wù)） 1. The following statements about Kepler 452b (Earth 2) are all correct except ________. A. It has existed for six billion years. B. It is 60% larger in diameter than the earth. C. It has already entered an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history D. It is the closest planet to the earth. 2. The importance of the discovery of Earth2 lies in the fact that Earth2 ________. ① can show a likely future for the earth ② gives new hope that alien civilizations may exist beyond the Solar System ③ proves that life once inhabited the planet ④ proves that plants can survive on other planets apart from the eartth. ⑤ is going through now what the earth will undergo more than a billion years from now A. ④⑤ B. ①③ C. ②④ D. ①② 3. What can we infer from the text? A. The earth has existed for about 4.5 billion years. B. Kepler 452b is one of the planets in the Milky Way. C. Doug Caldwel and Jeff Coughlin are both research scientists on the Kepler Mission. D. More than 4,000 planets outside the Solar System still cannot sustain life now. 1. C. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“…its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history.”可知，“它的位置可能意味著它正在進入它的氣候歷史中不可控制的溫室階段”的說法只是一種推想，而不是已經(jīng)進入了。句中的“could”是關(guān)鍵詞，它表明了一種假想的情況。故答案為C項。 2. D. 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一句話和第五段第一句話可知，答案應(yīng)為D項。 3. A. 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句話“Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2, is six billion years old.”和第三段第一句話中的“Since the planet is 1.5 billion years older than Earth,…”可以推知答案應(yīng)為A項。即地球存在的時間是：（6 billion –1.5billion = 4.5 billion）年。其余各項雖然表述是正確答，但都是原文直接提到的內(nèi)容，不是推斷出來的。 閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A.B.C和D項中，選出最佳選項。 It is over 40 years since first atomic bomb was dropped on a major city in Japan. Yet even now its effects are showing themselves and may continue to do so for years to come. Much effort and human energy have been used to try to prevent such a terrifying thing from happening again. So far there is no guarantee that it will not. Countries which already possess nuclear knowledge and resources have bombs stored away which are powerful enough to wipe out all life on earth. But this is not all. Other countries, which previously were not so advanced in technology, are gradually buying materials that can be used for making atomic devices. This nuclear energy will naturally be of great value in helping the economy of poorer nations. The generation of electricity through nuclear power came directly from the original work on the atom bomb. Because of the increase in demand for energy and the possibility of decreasing supplies of oil and natural gas, the interest in electricity has increased. One of the by-products of nuclear power stations is plutonium (鈽) produced from unclear fuel: plutonium is ingredient (成分) in bomb-making. It means that there are far more opportunities for the manufacture of bombs. This brings the problem to a full circle again. How can something so valuable and useful be controlled so that it works for the benefit and not the destruction of man? (from www.nmet168.com) 1. The effects of dropping the first atomic bomb ________. A. are not over B. may go on forever C. could last much longer D. will not be over in the near future 2. The writer says that enough atomic bombs have already been manufactured to ________. A. wipe out Japan B. last forever C. act as a peace-keeping device D. destroy all living things 3. The advantage of less developed countries being able to make atomic devices is that it ______. A. gives them more opportunities for work B. will help poor countries to become richer C. will enable them to make better explosives D. will be of great value to them 4. The second paragraph tells us that the increased demand for electricity today ________. A. has led to the decrease in supplies of oil B. means that more countries are interested in nuclear power C. has increased the risk of accidental explosions D. has increased the very means of producing more atomic bombs ?【答案與解析】 1. A 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句Yet even now its effects are showing themselves and may continue to do so for years to come可知。 2. D 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“…h(huán)ave bombs stored away which are powerful enough to wipe out all life on earth”一句可知。 3. B 細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“This nuclear energy will naturally be of great value in helping the economy of poorer nations”一句可知。 4. D 段落主旨題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“It means that there are far more opportunities for the manufacture of bombs.”可知。 【2015高考復(fù)習(xí)】閱讀理解 The British aren't having as many children as they used to.One reason is that people are having children much older than before，meaning they have fewer years in which they can have them.After years at university，they need a few years of work experience before they can get the job they want.They might then get married，but it's incredibly expensive to buy a house in the UK. The above explains why young British people now don't move out of their parents' home until they are around 30 years old on average.It is not until they are 30 that they can afford their own home.Increasingly，it is not until that age that they can afford to get married and start a new life in a new home.It's only after this age that many young people start thinking about having a child. So a British person manages to get a job，get a home and get married.Why isn't he or she then having at least two children on average？The main reason is that it is quite expensive to bring up a child in the UK.Why is it expensive？Well，these days，both parents need to work just to pay for their home and living expenses.Because both parents are at work，that means they then need to pay someone to look after their child during the day.Paying for this childcare is nearly always expensive. The recent financial crisis is making things even harder for families，since unemployment is rising and even fewer people can afford to have children.With so much pressure on families，is it any surprise that the divorce rate is so high? So what is Britain doing to try and save the British family？The government is trying to make it cheaper to have children.For example，there have been increases in money families can claim from the state each month.Also，there are increasing government subsidies for nursery schools，so that parents do not need to pay so much for childcare. The government is also trying to reduce the number of hours British parents have to work to earn enough money to pay their bills.If parents didn't have to work so many hours，they'd have more time to spend with their children and wouldn't need to spend so much on childcare.On average，a Briton works 49 hours a week，which is the most in Europe.The state is now considering introducing laws to encourage companies to improve their employees' work-life balance.Let's hope they're not too late to save the British family.Otherwise，the British will always be too tired，and won't have enough time and money，to have children. 【語篇導(dǎo)讀】　文章主要講述英國年輕人不像原來那樣多生孩子的原因。 36．Young British people live in their parents' home until around 30 because______.

Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can't cut it.They are lazy，and perhaps not too bright.So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left. “The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.”John Bridgeland，the executive researcher said.About 1 million teens leave school each year.Only about half of African-American and Hispanic(美籍西班牙的)students will receive a diploma，and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision.So，if failing grades don't explain why these kids quit，what does？Again，John Bridgeland said，“The most dependable finding was that they were bored.”“They found classes uninteresting；they weren't inspired or motivated.They didn't see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives，or to their possible careers.” The study found that most teens who do dropout wait until they turn sixteen，which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit.In the US，only one state，New Mexico，has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate.Only four states：California，Tennessee，Texas and Utah，plus the District of Columbia，require school attendance until age 18，no exceptions.Another researcher says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school. “As these dropouts look back，they realize they've made a mistake.And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out，is probably a helpful measure.” New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18.But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point—the need for reform.It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant，and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something. 【語篇解讀】 學(xué)生為什么要輟學(xué)？是因為他們不聰明不努力而導(dǎo)致考試不及格嗎？調(diào)查顯示，并非如此。學(xué)校教育的乏味和缺乏實用性才是罪魁禍?zhǔn)?。中學(xué)教育的改革勢在必行。 16．Most high school students drop out of school because ________. A．they often fail in exams B．they find school learning boring C．they are discriminated against D．they are lazy and not intelligent 答案　B　[事實細節(jié)題。由第三段“The most dependable finding was that they were bored.”“They found classes uninteresting；they weren't inspired or motivated.”一句可知。] 17．According to the passage，which state will soon have a law requiring school attendance until 18? A．California. B．New Hampshire. C．New Mexico. D．Utah. 答案　B　[事實細節(jié)題。由最后一段第一句可知。New Mexico頒布法律規(guī)定學(xué)生必須畢業(yè)，并沒有年齡限制。而California和Utah是已經(jīng)實行了這一規(guī)定的州。] 18．In the last paragraph，the writer is trying to ________. A．a(chǎn)nalyze the reason why students quit school B．suggest raising the compulsory attendance age C．raise awareness of reforming high school education D．wish to make laws to guarantee no education 答案　C　[推理判斷題。文章最后一段指出：強迫不愿意繼續(xù)上學(xué)的學(xué)生留在學(xué)校顯然是沒有看到問題的關(guān)鍵——改革的必要性。由此可見，作者是贊同中學(xué)教育改革并希望公眾能注意這個問題。] 19．What is the purpose of the author writing this article? A．To analyze the reasons why many students drop out of school. B．To introduce the measures to stop students from dropping out of school. C．To introduce the different regulations in the USA about students dropping out of school. D．To raise awareness of educational reforming in the USA. 答案　D　[主旨大意題。作者借助一份關(guān)于中學(xué)生輟學(xué)的研究結(jié)果，說明了美國中學(xué)教育改革的必要性。] 8
