20．The Hollywood film，"The Martian"，opens to U．S．a(chǎn)udiences on October 2．Actor Matt Damon stars as an astronaut left alone on Mars．His crew returned to Earth thinking he had died in a windstorm．Damon's character，Mark Watney，must survive with few supplies and somehow get a message to Earth that he is alive．
The plan to release the movie this week was some lucky timing．On Monday，the U．S．space agency NASA announced it had found strong evidence of liquid water on Mars．That again raised the possibility that，with liquid water，there could be life．
NASA also took a part in the development of"The Martian"．Director Ridley Scott and Matt Damon reached out to agency officials for help to make the story as scientific as possible．
So how scientifically accurate is"The Martian"？Jeffrey Luger of Time magazine tried to answer that question．He pointed out two of the biggest falsehoods of the film．The first，Mr．Luger writes，is central to the story：a powerful，dangerous windstorm that forces the space crew to leave the planet．The very low density atmosphere of Mars，Mr．Luger argues，could not create a storm like that．Mr．Luger also has trouble with the lack of danger from radiation on Mars．He notes that the six-month trip to Mars alone would expose the astronaut to 15times more radiation than is permitted for nuclear energy workers in a year．
But Popular Science reported much realism in the details．Science writer Sarah Fecht points to Astronaut Watney's struggle to work in astronaut clothing，especially the gloves．And，an expert she spoke with said the stiff gloves are a real problem．They are very difficult to bend．
"The Martian"is receiving excellent reviews from top critics．Anne Hornaday calls it a"spirited example of how cool science can be"．Mike D'Angelo describes"The Martian"as a"celebration of our ability to solve even the most difficult problems"．

分析 本文屬于說(shuō)明文閱讀，作者通過(guò)這篇文章主要向我們描述了好萊塢電影火星人正式發(fā)布，這部電影是美國(guó)航天局推動(dòng)發(fā)布的，充滿了科技色彩，但是時(shí)代雜志也從中找出了許多虛假不合理的情節(jié)．
解答 32．B．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第一段"Actor Matt Damon stars as an astronaut left alone on Mars"可知在這部電影中，演員Matt Damon演繹了一個(gè)獨(dú)自離開(kāi)到火星的宇航員；故選B．
33．C．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文章第二段"NASA also took a part in the development of"The Martian""可知NASA參與了火星人這部電影的發(fā)展；故選C．
34．D．推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第三段"He notes that the six-month trip to Mars alone would expose the astronaut to 15times more radiation than is permitted for nuclear energy workers in a year"可知在火星生活六個(gè)月在帶來(lái)人體所能接受輻射的15倍；因此火星輻射對(duì)Matt Damon沒(méi)什么影響是證明這是個(gè)虛假故事的證據(jù)之一；故選D．
35．A．推理判斷題．通讀全文，可知火星人這部電影描述的是宇航員流浪星際在火星獨(dú)自生活六個(gè)月的故事，充滿了神秘科技的色彩，是一部科技大片，因此它是一部科幻電影；故選A．
點(diǎn)評(píng) 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力，做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí)一定要找到文章中的原句，和題干進(jìn)行比較，再做出正確的選擇．在做推理判斷題不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí)，要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷．
