1、高考资源网（） 您身边的高考专家众所周知，天文学是一门古老的学科。随着科技的发展，人类对天体的认知亦越发深入！Astronomy is the oldest science known to man.Thousands of years ago man looked at the stars and wondered about the heavens.But man was limited by the six planets that he could see with his eyes alone.The Greeks studied astronomy over 2，000 years

2、 ago.They could see the size，colour，and brightness of a star.They could see its place in the sky.They watched the stars move as the seasons changed.But the Greeks had no tools to help themselves study the heavens.Each new tool added to the field of astronomy helped man reach out into space.Until the

8、as it happened so long ago.However，according to a widely accepted theory，the universe began with a “Big Bang(宇宙大爆炸)” that threw matter in all directions.After that，atoms(原子) began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies.地球上生命的起源没有人确切知道地球是怎样开始形成的，因为在很早以前它就形成了。然而，一种普遍为人们所接受的理论是：宇宙起源于一次大爆炸

9、，这次大爆炸将物质投射到四面八方。然后，原子开始形成并结合成恒星和其他天体。助读讲解how引导宾语从句，as引导原因状语从句。begin with从开始，起源于。in all directions朝四面八方。For several billion years after the “Big Bang”，the earth was still just a cloud of dust.What it was to become was uncertain until between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago when the dust settled into a

10、 solid globe.The earth became so violent that it was not clear whether the shape would last or not.It exploded loudly with fire and rock.They were in time to produce carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)，nitrogen(氮)，water vapour and other gases，which were to make the earths atmosphere.What is even more important is

11、that as the earth cooled down，water began to appear on its surface.大爆炸后好几十亿年过去了，但地球还只是一团尘埃。随后它会变成什么没人能知道，直到3845亿年前，这团尘埃才慢慢地形成一个固体的球状物。地球(开始)变得激烈动荡，不知道这个固体形状是否会继续存在下去。它(地球)猛烈的爆炸喷出了烈火与岩石，它们最终产生了碳、氮气、水蒸气和其他多种气体，从而形成了地球的大气层。更为重要的是，地球冷却了下来，地球的表面就开始出现了水。助读讲解it作形式主语，whether从句为真正的主语。in time to do sth./for s

12、th.及时做某事。Water had also appeared on other planets like Mars but，unlike the earth，it had disappeared later.It was not immediately obvious that water was to be fundamental to the development of life.What many scientists believe is that the continued presence(存在) of water allowed the earth to dissolve(

13、溶解) harmful gases and acids(酸) into the oceans and seas.This produced a chain(连锁) reaction(反应)，which made it possible for life to develop在火星这些其他行星上都出现了水，但和地球不同的是，这些水后来都消失了。水对于生命的发展会起关键作用，这一点在当时并不明显。很多科学家相信，由于地球上长期有水存在，使地球得以把有害气体和酸性物质溶解在海洋里。这就产生了一系列的反应，使得生命就有可能开始发展了。助读讲解be fundamental to 是的基础。which引导

14、非限制性定语从句，修饰a chain reaction。Many millions of years later，the first extremely small plants began to appear on the surface of the water.They multiplied and filled the oceans and seas with oxygen(氧)，which encouraged the later development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish.Next，green plants began

15、to grow on land.They were followed in time by land animals.Some were insects.Others，called amphibians(两栖动物)，were able to live on land as well as in the water.Later when the plants grew into forests，reptiles(爬行动物) appeared for the first time.They produced young generally by laying eggs(下蛋)After that，

16、some huge animals，called dinosaurs，developed.They laid eggs too and existed on the earth for more than 140 million years.However，65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs ended.Why they suddenly disappeared still remains a mystery.This disappearance made possible the rise of mammals(哺乳动物) on the

17、 earth.These animals were different from all life forms in the past，because they gave birth to young baby animals and produced milk to feed them.好几百万年以后，水的表面开始出现了极小的植物。它们繁殖起来就使得海洋充满了氧气，这为早期的贝类及其他各种鱼类后来的进化创造了条件。接着，绿色植物开始出现在陆地上。随后，陆地上出现了动物，其中有一些是昆虫，另外一些叫两栖动物，它们既能在陆地上生活，也能在水里生存。后来，当植物长大成了森林的时候，爬行动物出现了。

18、它们一般是通过孵蛋而繁衍后代的。再后来一些叫作恐龙的巨型动物出现了。它们也生蛋，在地球上生存了一亿四千多万年。然而，六千五百万年前，恐龙时代结束了。它们为什么会突然灭绝至今仍是个谜。恐龙的灭绝使地球上哺乳动物的增多有了可能。哺乳动物不同于以往所有的生物形式，因为它们能从体内生产出幼仔并给幼仔哺乳。助读讲解encourage vt.鼓励，鼓舞，促进，激发。called amphibians作后置定语。why引导主语从句。Finally about 2.6 million years ago some small clever animals，now with hands and feet，app

19、eared and spread all over the earth.Thus they have，in their turn，become the most important animals on the planet.But they are not looking after the earth very well.They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere，which prevents heat from escaping from the earth into space.As a result of

20、this，many scientists believe the earth may become too hot to live on. So whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.最后，大约260万年前，一些小巧聪明、长着手脚的动物出现了，它们散布在地球的各个地方。于是，他们接着成了这个行星上最重要的动物。然而，他们对地球却不怎么在意，他们把过多的二氧化碳释放到大气层中，这使得地球上的热不能

21、释放到太空中去。因此许多科学家相信地球可能会因此变得太热而不适合生物的生存。所以，在未来的数百万年中，生命能否在地球上延续取决于这个问题能否得到解决。助读讲解as a result of 由于too.to.太而不能depend on取决于，依靠。第一步速读了解文章主题和段落大意.速读P2526教材课文，匹配段落大意/选择最佳答案1Para.1AThe formation of the earth.2Para.2 BA widely accepted theory about the formation of the universe.3Para.3 CThe development of pl
