To repeat Franklin's   1 , first make a kite. Use a handkerchief   2
of silk, which is   3   to withstand the wind and rain. Build a frame by making a cross of two pieces of   4   wood, just long enough to reach the corners of the   5 . Tie the corners to the points of the frame, and then attach a tail of cloth   6   your kite. Finish with a good strong kite string, one   7   will be long enough to fly the kite high.To get the kite ready for the experiment, there are three very important   8 . First take a long sharp piece of metal and attach it to the longer leg of the cross,   9   a foot or more beyond the frame.   10 , take a metal key and tie it to the end of the kite string, the end that will be on the ground near you. Finally take a silk   11   and tie it onto the kite string, just above the key. This silk ribbon needs   12   dry during the whole experiment, to   13   you and anyone nearby from the electricity.

His disabilities, however, have not affected his mind. Hawking is able to grasp some of the most complex concepts known to man and somehow simplify them for others.Hawking was born in Oxford, England on January 8, 1942. When he was about 8 years old, his family moved to the town of St Albans, about 20 miles to the north of London, where he attended St Albans school at the age of eleven. Hawking then attended his father's old college, University College. Stephen wanted to do mathematics, which was not available at University College, so he did physics instead. He earned a degree in Natural Science with first class honours in just three years. Hawking then headed to Cambridge to study Cosmology. He completed his PhD and then stayed on at Cambridge at first a Research Fellow and then a Professor Fellow. In 1973, Hawking moved from the Institute of Astronomy to the department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. In 1979, he was given the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, which he continues to hold to this day. He is today a fellow of the Royal Society and a member of the US national Academy of Sciences.Hawking's great interest has been to understand the basic laws that our universe follows. One of his most well-known achievements was to demonstrate, along with Roger Penrose, that Einstein's theory of general relativity needed to be brought together with quantum theory. Hawking and Penrose showed that if Einstein's theory was carried out logically, space and time must have begun in something like the “Big Bang” of evolutionary theory and must end in black holes.Hawking has received numerous medals, awards and other prizes for his work. He is known today not only among professional scientists but also by the general public. He has published several books specially written to try to explain his theories to the common man. Three of his most popular books are his bestsellers A Brief History of Time, Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays and most recently in 2001, The Universe in a Nutshell. Hawking continues to research and write, not letting his disabilities slow him down. His goal is simple, he says. He simply wants “a complete understanding of the universe. Why it is as it is and why it exists at all.”1. Stephen Hawking is arguably the most famous scientist because _____.A. he is the only one who is alive todayB. he is totally disabledC. he can not only understand but explain complex theories in simpler waysD. he has received numerous medals2. The underlined sentence probably means ______.A. he studied physics instead of mathematics because the degree studies weren't providedB. he couldn't afford to study at University CollegeC. University College was more famous for physics teaching and researchD. he was more interested in physics than mathematics3. Stephen Hawking worked in the Institute of Astronomy ______.A. before 1979          B. after he gained his PhDC. before 1973        D. after his books were published
4. It can be inferred from the passage that Stephen Hawking ______.A. has been a student of EinsteinB. has been a Nobel Prize winnerC. completed his three most popular books in 2001D. is a well-known theoretical scientist with many honours5. The writer wrote this article mainly to ______.A. compare Einstein's with Stephen Hawking's achievementsB. show how Stephen Hawking became a great scientistC. introduce Stephen Hawking and his greatnessD. encourage young people to learn from him BTwo China astronauts, Fei Junlong and Nie Haisheng, are safely back on earth after their Shenzhou 6 spacecraft successfully touched down on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia Sunday at 4:32:50 pm, ending a five-day mission and China's second manned space flight.“I want to thank the people for their love and care,” Fei said during the ceremony, in which both astronauts were given flowers and seated in chairs. The Shenzhou 6 crew spent 115 hours and 32 minutes in space, and travelled 2 million miles (3.25 million kilometres) during their mission, which set new human spaceflight records for China. Fei and Nie were sent into space on October 12th, Beijing time on China's second manned spaceflight, the first to carry two astronauts. The spaceship lifted off from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in the Gobi desert almost two years to the day after China's first manned launch.That first mission, Shenzhou 5, launched astonaut Yang Liwei into orbit on October 15th, 2003, China is the third country to independently launched humans into Earth orbit after Russia and the US. But unlike Yang's flight, which the public did not get to see much of, much of Shenzhou 6 mission from lift-off to landing was shown live on national Chinese television. With Shenzhou 6, China has “achieved another milestone … in … space exploration,” said Wu Bangguo, Chairman of the Chinese NPC during his speech which was broadcast live on CCTV.6. In which year was Shenzhou 6 launched into space? A. 2003.          B. 2004.         C. 2005.          D. 2006.7. What was the speed of Shenzhou 6 when it was travelling into space? A. 28,130 kilometres per hour.        B. 28,130 miles per hour. C. 35,540 kilometres per hour.        D. 35,540 miles per hour. 8.

Shenzhou 6's Safe ReturnB. History of China's Space ExplorationC. New Human Spaceflight RecordsD. Chinese Astronauts VI. 書面表達隨著世界太空技術的發(fā)展，人類的太空夢不再是夢。但是也有人覺得耗費大量的人力和財力來研究和開發(fā)太空資源不切實，不如將這些人力和財力用來著重解決人類當前面臨的重大問題，改善地球的生存環(huán)境。對此，你有何看法？Developing Space technology, worthwhile or not?______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
參考答案：Ⅲ. 單項選擇，從A、B、C、D四個選項中，選擇最佳答案完成句子1. A解析：本題主要考查名詞意義。in theory在理論上； in practice在實踐中；in fact實際上。故A為最佳答案。2. C解析：本題主要考查time 的有關詞組。at a time 意為“一次，一次動作”；in time 意為“及時，終究”。本題指剛好趕上火車，故C為最佳答案。3. B解析：本題主要考查名詞辨析。atmosphere 有“氣氛，氛圍”的意思；spirit 意為“精神；情緒”。故最佳答案為B。4. C解析：本題考查動詞辨析。lie 作為規(guī)則動詞時，意為“撒謊，說謊”；lie 作為不規(guī)則動詞，意為“躺下”，過去式和過去分詞分別為lay, lain。而lay 意為“平放；放下；下蛋”，其過去式和過去分詞分別為 laid, laid。此題表示“下蛋”，故正確答案為C。5. B解析：本題考查介詞unlike。dislike 是動詞；in common with與……一樣；unlike與……不一樣。故B為最佳。6. A解析：本題考查動詞用法辨析。protect sb from sth為常見用法，意為“保護某人不受某事傷害”，from不能省略；keep sb from doing意為“阻止某人做某事”，from不能省略；stop / prevent sb from doing意為“阻止、防止某人做某事”，from后常接doing。故A為最佳答案。7. B解析：本題考查非謂語動詞。disappointing 意為“令人失望的”，而 disappointed 意為“感到失望的”，重在表示人的感受，be disappointed at sth 表示聽到或看到某事而感到失望。故B為最佳答案。8. D解析：本題考查交際用語。Cheer up! 用于鼓勵別人，叫人振作起來，為此題最佳答案。9. C解析：本題考查分詞作主語補足語。floating 動作是由cat發(fā)出的，同時 dead 形容詞也作主語的補足語。10. B解析：本題考查從句的用法。what 引導主語從句，而where 引導表語從句。故B為最佳答案。11. B解析：本題考查代詞it的用法。本題中it 作形式主語，whether引導的主語從句習慣上后置。故B為最佳答案。12. A解析：本題考查as 引導的特殊定語從句。as 作為關系代詞，引導的定語從句放句首，as 指代后面的整句內(nèi)容。故A為最佳答案。此外，as還用在有so, such, the same 修飾的先行詞后, 作為關系代詞引導定語從句。13. A解析：本題考查有關break的動詞詞組辨析。break out意為“爆發(fā)，發(fā)生”；break in意為“插入，插隊，插嘴”；break off意為“斷開；斷落”，特別是“斷絕關系”等；break down 意為“坍塌；垮掉；中途停止”。故 A 為最佳答案。14. C解析：本題考查now that 引導的狀語從句。now that 意為“既然”，往往表示已經(jīng)存在的現(xiàn)實條件、原因等，而 as though 意為“好像”。故C為最佳答案。15. B解析：本題考查動詞的意義。force 作動詞有“強迫，勉強”之意。故B為最佳答案。Ⅳ. 根據(jù)括號內(nèi)的要求進行句型轉(zhuǎn)換1. The police are trying to find out who is responsible for the accident.2. That he is the best player in his team is a fact. / It is a fact that he is the best player in his team.3. They came to the decision that they should go on with the project despite the weather.4. The only solution is that both parties put down their arms and talk face to face.5. They are still living in what used to be a church.Ⅴ. 根據(jù)漢語提示及重點詞語將下列句子譯成英語1. The mother elephant gave birth to a lovely baby elephant.2. It has been proved by some scientists that this chemical does great harm to people's health.3. Our next problem is how the rocket can escape the gravity of the earth.4. After a few day, he began to get the hang of it, and did a good job.5. This room is three times as large as that one. / This room is twice larger than that one. / This room is three times the size of that one.Ⅵ. 完形填空1. C解析：本文是在介紹富蘭克林的風箏實驗。此處意為“為了重復富蘭克林當年的實驗”。2. B 解析：做風箏需要一塊手帕，要求是絲質(zhì)的。made of silk 此處作定語，修飾handkerchief。3. B解析：該實驗中，手帕是絲質(zhì)的，絲質(zhì)手帕不光是輕，而且還結實，strong與后文的withstand (經(jīng)受)相呼應。4. A 解析：根據(jù)常識，做風箏的材料要求越輕越牢就越好，用于做風箏骨架的木頭自然要輕。5. C解析：考查前后照應。在前文所準備的材料中，只有手帕有四個角，因此應該是handkerchief。6. D 解析：本題考查動詞和介詞的搭配。attach sth to sth將……附著在……上。7. A 解析：此處one指代前面出現(xiàn)的string，作string的同位語，后面只能用that 引導定語從句。8. A解析：結合語境，下文講解如何一步一步制作風箏，因此此處應為三個重要的steps。9. B解析：此處考查動詞詞組的辨析。speak of意為“說到，提到”；stick out意為“伸出，突出”；cut off意為“切斷，隔絕”；reach out意為“伸手”。根據(jù)后文的beyond the frame，可知是要伸出去一部分，故B為最佳。10. D解析：結合上下文，這是制作風箏的第二步，故next 最為恰當。11. C解析：后文出現(xiàn)了this silk ribbon，由此可知前文必定是要求拿一根絲綢的帶子綁到風箏線的末端。故答案為C。12. B解析：此處考查動詞need的用法， need doing或need to be done。注意：類似用法還有require, want, deserve等。13. A 解析：protect sb from sth保護某人不受某物的傷害；prevent sb from doing防止某人做某事；escape from逃脫，逃離；suffer from遭受……折磨。故選A。14. C 解析：此處考查動詞辨析。collect意思是“將分散零碎的東西收集起來”，此處是將電收集起來。15. B 解析：above all首先，強調(diào)重要性，突出的特點。first of all首先，強調(diào)的是次序上排第一。Ⅶ. 閱讀理解，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案1. C解析：本題考查第一段大意。霍金雖然身體殘疾，但是卻能理解人類迄今為止最復雜的理論，最關鍵的還在于他能夠把他所理解的理論進行簡化。2. A解析：本題重點考查句子理解。而理解的關鍵是available，在當時根本不提供數(shù)學的學位，所以不得已去學物理了。3. C解析：本題考查細節(jié)。文中 “In 1973, Hawking moved from the Institute of Astronomy to …” 可知，1973年前是在天文學研究機構工作。4. D   解析：本題考查文中的諸多細節(jié)，A、B、C 三個選項可以根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容逐一排除。5. C 解析：本題考查對文章寫作目的的理解，重點介紹科學家霍金及其成就。6. C解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第四段末和第五段開始可知，第一次是在2003年，兩年以后時間就是2005年。7. A解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章提供的數(shù)據(jù)，進行除法運算。8. D解析：細節(jié)理解題。文章提到中國是繼美國、俄羅斯之后的第三個成功將人送入太空的國家。9. C解析：神州六號創(chuàng)造了中國載人太空飛行的新紀錄，而不是世界紀錄。10. A解析：本題考查文章標題。A答案最能體現(xiàn)文章的主題。Ⅷ. 書面表達參考范文：With the development of space technology, human beings are exploring further into the space. Those space experiments and explorations cost huge sums of money, which, quite a number of people think, should have been used to protect human natural environment and solve the problems we all are facing. This might be true, but I think in the long run human will have to turn to other planets when all the resources are used up. For example, human could make use of the mines on the moon and conduct special experiments in the space. Moreover, some of the new technologies employed in space could be used in our daily life and thus creating a better life for us.All in all, space technology development is sure to benefit all human beings.
