     Qian Xuesen is one of the pioneers of China's space science. As a worldfamous expert on aerospace
rockets and aerodynamics,he obtained great achievements in the areas of applied mechanics,engineering
cybernetics and system engineering and made distinguished contributions to the foundation and
development of Chinese aerospace undertaking(事業(yè)).
     Graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University in 1934,Qian Xuesen went to the United States to study
in MIT,Massachusetts Institute of Technology,one year later. After receiving master's degree in MIT,he
went to study in California Institute of Technology and received PhD degrees in both aerospace and
mathematics.
     In 1955,six years after the founding of People's Republic of China,Qian Xuesen returned to his
motherland. His return brought China the hope of developing space science and its own missiles.
     In 1956,Qian Xuesen put forward "Proposal on the Development of China's Aviation Industry for
National Defense". With the support from Zhou Enlai,the premier,and marshal Nie Rongzheng,Qian
Xuesen began to prepare for the establishment of China's first missile and rocket research and
development structure,the Fifth Research Institute of State Ministry of Defense. Henceforth(從此以后),he has long been in charge of the chief technological research and development of China's missile,rocket and
spacecraft.
     Due to research and development led by Qian Xuesen,China successfully exploded its first atom bomb in 1964. Later,China launched its first manmade satellite,Dong Fang Hong I,to the earth orbit on April 24,
1970,becoming the fifth country in the world to independently launch satellite following the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,the USA,France and Japan.The satellite floated around the earth,blaring(高聲播放) the song Dong Fang Hong,which has the same name as the satellite.
     As a forerunner leading the development of China's aerospace science and technology,Qian Xuesen
also provided chances for young scientists. Wang Yongzhi,former chief designer of China's mannedspace
project,has benefited a lot from Qian Xuesen. "He suggested that rocket of the second generation should
be developed by our second generation scientists. This suggestion gave us chances to be general
designers." Recalling the experience working with Qian Xuesen,Sun Jiadong,general designer of China's
lunar orbiter project,is very grateful. "He put great expectation on us and trusted us a lot. Whenever we
made mistakes,he seldom blamed us,but helped us to find out the reason so we could avoid it in the
future."
     Honored as Father of China's Missile and King of Rockets,Qian Xuesen never stopped his work on
scientific research after he retired. He said he had no time to review the past,but looked forward to the
future.

1. When did Qian xuesen begin to study in Massachusetts Institute of Technology?
A. In 1955.  
B. In 1935.  
C. In 1936.  
D. In 1934.
2. Which of the following is about the five countries that launched manmade satellite independently before 1970?
A. The former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,the UK,France,China and Japan.
B. The former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,the USA,Japan,Canada and China.
C. America,France,Japan,China and Australia.
D. The former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,America,France,Japan and China.
3. What does the underlined word "forerunner"(Paragraph 6) probably mean?
A. A leader.  
B. A pioneer.

4. According to the passage,which of the following about Qian Xuesen is NOT true?

undertaking.

Wang Hao and Wang Liqin, two of China’s top tennis players, both saw the World Table Tennis Championships as a chance to prove themselves. But there was only one champion and Wang Hao, 25, won it last Tuesday in Yokohama, Japan.
Wang Hao, who won the men’s doubles title with Chen Qi last Monday, played with spirit to best Wang Liqin 11-9, 13-11,11-5,11-9.
Wang Hao said it was his mental toughness (心里穩(wěn)定) that made the difference. “I was disappointed by my performances in past championships and the last two Olympic Games. But I have tried to pull myself together and prepared well. This is the result.”
Wang Hao said he always understood the importance of physical training and technical skills. Now he knows the need for mental preparation as well. Having two Olympic silvers had left him feeling bitter (痛苦的). The bitterness perhaps explains why he has not always played at his best in the past.
“I’ve come to understand that you can learn important lessons (教訓(xùn)) from failure,” he said. “Losing can build your character and make you a stronger player.” His next goal, or dream, is to win the medal at the London Olympics in 2012.
Liu Guoliang, head coach of China’s table tennis team, sang the praises of Wang Hao’s victory. “This is just the beginning of his rise,” said Liu. “It’s the confidence-booster he needs to make further progress.”
1 According to the passage, Wang Hao won ____ gold medals in the World Table Tennis Championships in Yokohama, Japan.

第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題1.5分,滿分30分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。

If you’ve ever seen a James Bond movie you’ll know that the hero gets around in a smart Aston Martin car. Even if you know full well that you could never afford such an expensive vehicle, you don’t forget the name, or the car.

Why? You have been subjected to product placement.

Companies pay a film to place their products in the movie. Product placement took off in the West in the 1980s and is now catching on in China. Two Hunan Satellite TV dramas arerecent examples:Ugly Wudi and Let’s Go Watch the Meteror Shower(《一起去看流星雨》).

Shampoo, mobile phones, cars and fitness centers-anything can be product-placed. Advertisers value the mass appeal of the movies, knowing that a successful film can showcase their goods to hundreds of thousands of viewers. But when product placement takes over, artistic considerations can take a back seat.

Cai Zhiyong has been product-placing for years. The Beijing-based advertiser admits there is a conflict between art and business. He explains the way one ad works. In If You are the One(《非誠勿擾》),the actress Shu Qi plays a flight attendant. The movie contains product placement for airline companies.

Cash-strapped filmmakers often have to sacrifice the quality of their work because they need money form advertisers. In the original story for Meteor Shower, the heroine’s mother owned an ice cream shop. But no ice cream company wanted to sponsor the film. For this reason, the story was changed. In the film the man drinks20 cups of milk tea where it was originally intended that he would eat ice cream.

Even here tough, you may see the power of business over the movies, since the script was perhaps written so a product could be placed-whether it was ice cream or milk tea.

1.James Bond movies are mentioned in the first paragraph to show_________.

A.how popular James Bond is    B.how great the Aston Martin car is

C.how to make a movie more artistic D.how effectively product placement works

2.Product placement can have a bad effect on the_________ of a movie.

A.a(chǎn)tmosphere      B.mass appeal      C.commercial success  D.a(chǎn)rtistic value

3.What does the underlined word “cash-strapped” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A.Short of money.             B.Self-financed  

C.With abundant cash. D.Intending to earn money

4.We can learn from the adaptation of Meteor Shower that__________.

A.business has a big say in the movie

B.the original story was not suitable for a movie

C.filmmakers are more concerned about making money.

D.milk tea companies are more successful than ice cream companies.
