18.While many probably remember using their childhood imaginations to turn the Moon's dark markings into a picture of a rabbit on the Moon,just recently China put a different sort of rabbit on the Moon:a lunar probe dubbed"Jade Rabbit."Now,they have followed up by releasing pictures of the probe in action.
Last weekend,China's National Space Administration made China the first nation to make a soft landing on the Moon since 37 years ago.The Soviet Union's probe,Luna 2,was the first on September 14,1959,followed by the United States,who eventually caught up with and surpassed the Soviet Union by putting the first human on the Moon,Neil Armstrong,on July 20,1969.
Jade Rabbit was launched on December 1 with the mission of exploring the Moon's surface in an attempt to locate natural resources.It will be deployed on this mission for a period of three months.
The probe reportedly shut down its explorations on December 16 due to high temperatures with plans to leave it inactive until December 23,but it was started up again on December 20 in order to gain more research time.
The country has aspirations of putting a human on the Moon by 2025,an area which has up until now been dominated by the United States,who last landed a man on the Moon in 1972 with astronaut Eugene Cernan.
China's recent attention to the Moon appears to have once again stirred up American interest in space exploration.In the December issue of New Space magazine,Christopher McKay makes an argument that the U.S.should consider setting up a lunar research base,citing among his reasons the fact that it is important to maintain U.S.influence on the Moon.
63.When did the humans make a soft landing on the moon next to China's?A
A.1976.B.1972.C.1969.D.1959.
64.The mission of the lunar probe will endB?
A.a(chǎn)fter 37 years exploration
B.a(chǎn)fter three months research.
C.till 2025
D.till 2017.
65.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?B
A.China will put a human on the Moon twelve years later.
B.Two countries have put humans on the moon-The USA and the former USSR.
C.Christopher McKay stated that the USA is interested in returning to the moon.
D.The probe shut down its explorations because it is extremely hot on the moon.
66.What does the underlined word mean in the first paragraph?B
A.Launched
B.Named
C.Made
D.Explored.

分析 本文講述了登月的國家以及時間.

解答 63.A推斷題.由第二段第一句"On December 2,2013,which was just last weekend,China's National Space Administration made China the first nation to make a soft landing on the Moon since 37 years ago."可知,在中國前面一個登上月球的國家距今已有37年,今年是2013年,37年前應(yīng)為1976年,故正確答案為A.
64.B細(xì)節(jié)題.由第三段最后一句"It will be deployed on this mission for a period of three months."可知,這次任務(wù)將持續(xù)三個月,故正確答案為B.
65.B推斷題.由第二段最后一句中"The Soviet Union's probe,Luna 2,was the first on September 14,1959,followed by the United States,who eventually caught up with and surpassed the Soviet Union by putting the first human on the Moon,Neil Armstrong,on July 20,1969."可知,前蘇聯(lián)發(fā)射了第一個飛船(沒有載人),而美國趕超前蘇聯(lián),實現(xiàn)了人員登陸,即 Neil Armstrong 登上了月球,故前蘇聯(lián)沒有將人員送上月球.B項錯誤.
A項,由倒數(shù)第二段第一句"The country has aspirations of putting a human on the Moon by 2025."可知,中國計劃在2025年之前將人送到月球上,今年是2013年,即12年后,A項表述正確.
C項,由最后一段最后一句"Christopher McKay makes an argument that the U.S.should consider setting up a lunar research base,citing among his reasons the fact that it is important to maintain U.S.influence on the Moon."可知,C項表述正確.
D項,由倒數(shù)第三段第一句"The probe reportedly shut down its explorations on December 16 due to high temperatures with plans to leave it inactive until December 23"可知,D項表述正確.
題干要求找出表述錯誤的選項,故正確答案為B.
66.B 推斷題.由劃線處句子"a lunar probe dubbed'Jade Rabbit'."可知,此處"Jade Rabbit"應(yīng)為"lunar probe"的名稱,故 dubbed 可用 named(名為)代替,launched"被發(fā)送",made"被制造",explored"勘探過的",故正確答案為B.

點評 本文講述了登月的國家以及時間的一個故事,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對性的找出相關(guān)語句進行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測,一定要做到有理有據(jù).

10.An astronaut is required to make some repairs to the outside of the International Space Station.After a successful repair,the astronaut finishes the task.Unfortunately,a tool flies off into space.The tool has now become space junk,high-speed pieces of objects(物體) going around the Earth at 17,000 kilometers per hour.
While humans produce an unbelievable amount of waste on Earth,we might not think too much about space junk.But NASA says there are probable millions of objects,both small and large,going around the Earth in a giant cloud of junk.
Space junk got its start in the middle of the twentieth century,at the very beginning of the space race,when satellite began to be launched to go into orbit (軌道) around the Earth.So far,space junks include waste spaceships and waste spaceship parts,rocket fuel containers and even pieces of paint.Believe or not,there are millions of tiny pieces of paint floating around Earth's orbit.Heat or crashes usually cut off paint from spaceship and turn them into space junk.Because there are so many objects flying around up there,there's concern that crashes between space junks will only produce more of them.Scientists are worried this is already happening.
Anything travelling at a high speed in space would cause a considerable amount of damage to a spaceship if a direct hit happened.Even a small piece of paint is capable of making a quarter-inch hole into the window of a space station.The good news for astronauts is that most space junk is located between 550 and 625 miles above the Earth--the International Space Station flies in orbit at 250 miles high,while spaceships usually only reach 375 miles above the Earth.Space programs are also working on rocket designs that limit the amount of space junk produced during a launch.
For those of us on the Earth,is there a possibility that space junk could fall back to the ground?Everything in orbit will finally be pulled back down by Earth's gravity-when that happens depends on how high the object is and how fast it's going.The higher the object is,the longer the object will take to fall.These objects could stay in orbit for thousands of years.As for the risks of getting hit on the head,fortunately,most objects burn up on their way back to the Earth,and no one has ever been killed by space junk.
44.Where is space junk from?D
A.Pieces from satellites.
B.Fuel coming from rockets.
C.Waste from the space station.
D.Spaceships that no longer work.
45.What are scientists worried about space junk?C
A.It may rub off the spaceship's outside paint.
B.It may be pulled back by gravity and hurt people.
C.More space junks will probably be produced in crashes.
D.The space station's windows may be blocked by space junk.
46.Where is the passage probably taken from?C
A.Astronauts'travel diary.
B.Scientists'research report.
C.Popular science magazine.
D.Adventure novel.

9.First lady's campaign brings change
WASHINGTON (AP)-Wal-Mart(沃爾瑪) is putting special labels(標(biāo)簽)on some  products to help shoppers quickly notice healthier ones.Millions of schoolchildren are helping themselves to vegetables from salad bars in their lunchrooms,and kids'meals at Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants come with a side of fruit or vegetables and a glass of low-fat milk.
These changes are taking place due to the campaign against childhood fatness,for which the first lady Michelle Obama began fighting three years ago.
Fatness has become a serious problem in the country.About one-third of U.S.children are overweight,which puts them at increased risk for any number of deadly illnesses,including high blood pressure and heart disease.
Still,Mrs.Obama faces challenge.Not everyone welcomes her effort.Some blame her for going too far and say she has no right to tell what people should and shouldn't eat.But nutrition supporters and others praise her for using her influence to help bring interests to the table.They said the first lady has raised public awareness about fatness,which will help decrease childhood fatness rates.
There is evidence of small decrease in childhood fatness rates in some parts of the country.New York reported a 5.5percent drop in fatness rates in kindergarteners through eighth-graders between the 2006-07and 2010-11school years.In Philadelphia,the drop was 4.7percent among students in grades K-12.
Fighting against children fatness is hard work,but it's well worth the effort.The first lady is planning a promotional tour.She has been talking up the campaign against childhood fatness on daytime and late-night TV shows and on the radio.She also plans discussions next week on Google and Twitter.
"We've been spending a lot of time educating and re-educating families and kids on how to eat,what to eat,"the first lady said."We're starting to see some changes and we're starting to show some improvement."

56.What is the purpose of the campaign started by the first lady?B
A.To call on healthy eating.
B.To reduce childhood fatness rate.
C.To show the harm caused by fatness.
D.To educate people how to avoid illness.
57.What is the first paragraph mainly about?D
A.The popularity of healthy food.
B.The importance of balanced diet.
C.Children's preference for vegetables.
D.The changes brought out by the campaign.
58.What can we learn from the passage about Mrs.Obama?C
A.She is an expert in healthy eating.
B.She has won support of the whole nation.
C.She shows great concern about childhood fatness.
D.She makes good use of media to increase her influence.

Liang Kun,26,had to resign from his job at a trading company in Guangzhou last week after discussing her income with colleagues during a lunch break."I didn't realize it was such a serious issue until a senior member of staff went to find the boss,asking why I got a higher salary than her,"said Liang.‘‘Then our HR told me that according to the employee handbook it is forbidden to talk about salary in the office."HR expert Yang also reminds us that paychecks are your own business.It is unwise to share this information with others,no matter how close you are.
To summarize,Yang advises office workers to be more aware of the image they project when talking to colleagues,"When you share your personal life,it will be recorded on your invisible resume and may slow clown your career progressing."

13.You're rushing to work and a man ahead of you falls down on the sidewalk.Do you stop to help?In a study of by-standers,it was found that some people keep on walking.
"There is a tendency to decide that no action is needed,"says a psychologist,"In order to take action,you have to work against them."Here are some common thoughts that stop you from helping.
●Why should I be the one?I'm probably not the most able person in this crowd.You might think someone older or with more medical knowledge should offer assistance.
●What if he doesn't really need my help?The fear of embarrassment is powerful; no one wants to risk looking foolish in front of others.
●No one else looks concerned.We can follow the people around us,but most people tend to hold back their emotions in public.
"If you spot trouble and find yourself explaining inaction,force yourself to stop and evaluate the situation instead of walking on,"says the psychologist."Then retry to involve other people; you don't have to take on the entire responsibility of being helpful.Sometimes it's just a matter of turning to the person next to you and saying,'It looks like we should do something.'Or asking someone if an ambulance has been called and,if not,to call for one.Once you take action,most people will follow you."

Child-rearing(養(yǎng)育) doesn't come naturally to guys.My mother knew the names of our teachers,best friends and crushes.My dad was only vaguely aware there were short people sharing the apartment.My mother bought healthy fresh food at the market every day.My dad would only go shopping when there was nothing in the fridge except a jar of capers and a bay leaf.Then he'd buy beer.My mother always knew the right questions to ask our teachers.My dad would ask my English teacher if she could get us a discount on school fees.My mother served kid food to kids.My dad added chili sauce to everything,including our baby food.

7.When I was a boy my father told me that he could do anything he wanted to.Dad said that he wanted to be the first to develop color prints in our city and so he did.
When I was 16,Dad looked closely at the violin I played and said that he wanted to make one.He read about violin-making,and then became a violin-maker at the age of 43.He bought the tools and materials,opened a small store and set Mom up as the shopkeeper,while he worked at a local company.He retired from the company 17years later and continued to make violins and other instruments.
Dad often guessed why the Stradivarius violins sounded so beautiful.Some experts told him that it was the special varnish (油漆) that gave the instruments their beautiful sound.Dad argued that chemists could analyze the varnish-if that was the answer.
One of Dad's friends asked him which kind of wood was used to make violins.When Dad explained that the top was made of spruce (云杉),his friend said that he had all old piece of spruce which Dad might be interested in.
He worked for the next 12months making a violin from the wood that his friend had given him.It proved to be an excellent violin and it would become Dad's masterpiece.He believed that the secret of the Stradivarius sound was in the wood itself.
Later,the instrument was stolen,Dad's spirit was broken and he stopped making instruments.But he kept the music shop until he was 80years old,selling guitars and violins.
The violin has been missing for more than 25years.Somewhere a musician is playing a late-20th-century violin with an excellent tone.The owner today may never understand why this ordinary-looking violin sounds so much like Stradivarius.

24.In Paragraph l,the writer mentioned his father's developing color prints toC.
A.let others know that he believed his father
B.show that his father would like to make violins
C.prove that his father could do anything he wanted to
D.give an example showing that his father was an inventor
25.The reason why the Stradivarius violins sounded beautiful was thatB.
A.they were made by experts.  
B.the wood of the violins was special.
C.the way of making them was unusual.  
D.the varnish was different from the others.
26.Which of the following statements is true about the missing violin?B

6.Have you ever had such experience?Travelers in the airport line up and march slowly toward the full-body scanner(掃描儀).Have you wondered that screening may one day speed up dramatically?Now,scientists are creating a cheap and smart new device that gathers data in a flash.
It relies on microwaves to image objects.Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation(電磁輻射)-types of energy that travel through space as a wave.Electromagnetic radiation includes visible (可見的) light,which can be seen with the naked eye.It also includes several types of energy,such as microwaves,that aren't visible with the naked eye.
In January,scientists at Duke University and elsewhere reported creating a new device that could help make smarter,faster and cheaper scanning machines.So far,the new device has been tested only in the lab.But if it works outside the lab,too,it could find use in a host of new products.
At airports,the new device could be used in machines that scan people for guns,knives or other would-be weapons.A technique similar to the one used by the researchers could be applied to other scanners,like those doctors use to peer into the body.This could reduce the amount of time patients spend in a scanner and the cost of such procedures.The device's designers even imagine police officers wearing vests embedded with the new technology to help identify a hidden weapon.
Instead of requiring expensive technology,a scanner based on the device could use existing materials (like copper) in a smarter way.Called metamaterials,these become useful based on how they're designed,not what they're made of.
"This definitely represents a less expensive and potentially faster alternative to current imaging methods,and its working principle is easily understood,"Kevin Kelly told Science News.Kelly is a technology specialist at Rice University in Houston.

67.What can we infer from the first paragraph?D.
A.Every traveler is willing to have a security scan.
B.The speed of security scan is slow because of so many travelers.
C.The new system has been put into market.
D.The current security scan system should be improved.
68.What is special about microwaves compared to visible light according to the passage?B.
A.It is a form of electromagnetic radiation.
B.You can't see it with your naked eyes.
C.It can travel through space.
D.It is a kind of energy.
69.With the new device we could do the following things exceptC.
A.shortening the patients'test time
B.helping patients spend less money
C.erasing the suffering of the patient
D.helping to identify a hidden weapon
70.What do you think the author will probably talk about in the following paragraph?A.
A.How does the new device work?
B.What is the new device like?
C.The application of the new device.
D.People's attitude about the new device.
