18.In 1901,H.G.Wells,an English writer,wrote a book describing a trip to the moon.When the explorers (探險(xiǎn)者) landed on the moon,they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities.They expressed their surprise to the"moon people"they met.In turn,the"moon people"expressed their surprise."Why?"they asked,"are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?"
H.G.Wells could only imagine travel to the moon.In 1969,human beings really did land on the moon.People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon.However,the question that the"moon people"asked is still an interesting one.A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place.Many cities have underground car parks.In some cities,such as Tokyo,Seoul and Montreal,there are large underground shopping areas.The"Chunnel",a tunnel (隧道) connecting England and France,is now complete.
But what about underground cities?Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems,called"Alice Cities."The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats,offices,shopping,and so on.A solar dome (太陽(yáng)能穹頂) would cover the whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space.The surface,they say,can be used for farms,parks,gardens,and wilderness.H.G.Wells"moon people"would agree.Would you?
32.The explorers in H.G.Wells'story were surprised to find that the"moon people"A..
A.lived in so many underground cities
B.understood their language
C.knew so much about the earth
D.were ahead of them in space technology
33.What does the underlined word"it"(paragraph 2)refer to?D
A.Discovering the moon's inner space.
B.Traveling to outer space.
C.Meeting the"moon people"again.
D.Using the earth's inner space.
34.What sort of underground systems are already here with us?C
A.Offices,shopping areas,power stations.
B.Gardens,car parks,power stations.
C.Tunnels,car parks,shopping areas.
D.Tunnels,gardens,offices.
35.What would be the best title for the text?C
A.Alice Cities-cities of the future
B.Space travel with H.G.Wells
C.Building down,not up
D.Enjoy living underground.

32題答案:A考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章第一段的When the explorers (探險(xiǎn)者) landed on the moon,they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities.They expressed their surprise to the"moon people"they met.當(dāng)探險(xiǎn)者在月球上著陸時(shí),他們發(fā)現(xiàn)月球上滿是地下城市.他們向"月球人"表達(dá)了驚訝之情.可知本題答案為A選項(xiàng).
33題答案:D考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章第一段的."Why?"they asked,"are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?""為什么,"它們問(wèn)道:"你們甚至不對(duì)自己的內(nèi)部空間加以利用,就急著向外太空進(jìn)發(fā)嗎?"可知it指的是"利用地球的內(nèi)部空間",故本題答案為D選項(xiàng).
34題答案:C考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第三段的Many cities have underground car parks…there are large underground shopping areas…a tunnel…(許多城市有了地下停車場(chǎng)…有很大的購(gòu)物區(qū)…一個(gè)隧道…)可知本題答案為C選項(xiàng).
35題答案:C考查主旨大意,本文以狄更斯所寫書中"月球人"向人類的發(fā)問(wèn)為引子,繼而提出了人類應(yīng)該更好地利用自己內(nèi)部空間的做法,而不是想外(上)擴(kuò)張.故本題答案為C選項(xiàng).

8.It seems that great artists and scientists often suffer from mental problems.Both Einstein and Dickens had mental illness.Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are linked(聯(lián)系).
Dr.Adele Juda studied 5,000creative people in Germany.She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population.Poets had the highest rate(比例) of mental illness,followed by musicians,with lower numbers for painters and architects.
Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity.But,it did nothing to explain it.
Dr.Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough.Instead of studying creative people,she took a group of psychiatric(精神病的) patients and tested them for creativity.The patients got much higher scores than a normal group.
Also,the patients'close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group.This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes(基因).
But this is a problem.According to Darwinism,harmful genes should be removed.Some scientists believe that evolution(進(jìn)化) has created a balance,where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the whole human race.
Geniuses may be mad,bad or just difficult to understand,but their discoveries have improved the world we live in.It seems that a little creative madness is good for us all.

49.According to Dr.Adele Juda,which of the following group has the lowest rate of mental illness?D
A.Painters.B.Musicians.C.Poets.D.Bus drivers.
50.The underlined phrase"made a breakthrough"in the fourth paragraph meansA.
A.discover or find something new and important
B.make a way through using force
C.(of the sun or moon) appear from behind (clouds)
D.suddenly change (from a slower to a faster pace)
51.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.Among the 5,000creative people in Germany,more people suffer from mental diseases than the general population.
B.There is a strong link between mental problems and creativity.
C.Psychiatric patients make greater contributions than common people.
D.The key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes.
52.What is the writer's attitude toward madness?B
A.Madness is harmful to the whole society.
B.A little creative madness is good for us all.
C.All the talented people are mad.
D.Only the people with mental illness have more creativity.
