2、000 years ago.They could see the size,colour,and brightness of stars.They could see their places in the sky.They watched the stars move as the seasons changed.But the Greeks had no tools to help them study the starry heavens.Each new tool added to the files of astronomy helped man reach out into spa

3、ce.Until there were telescopes(望远镜),man knew little about the moon.They did not know that the planet called Saturn(土星)had rings around it.Their sight was so limited that they could not see all the planets.In the early 1700s,people thought there were only six planets.Before the spectroscope(分光镜),man

4、did not know what kind of gases is in the sun or other stars.Without the radio telescope(电望远镜)we did not know that radio noises come from far out in space.Today,astronomy is a growing science.We have learned more in the last fifty years than in the whole history of astronomy.1The passage mainly tell

8、he last fifty years .A.astronomy has become a scienceB.people have made great progress in astronomyC.people have begun to do research on astronomyD.astronomy has limited mans knowledge of space 答案B解析细节理解题。由短文最后一句可以得出答案。BFrom boyhood he was interested in Astronomy,and while at Cambridge he would sit

9、up at night to watch the stars.But he was dissatisfied with the telescopes of those days because they didnt show him a clear picture of things.At first he thought there must be something wrong with the lens(镜头).But no matter how hard he tried to improve the lens,the trouble was still there.This set

10、Newton thinking.He began to study the nature of light and colours.In the end he found that sunlight,or white light,is actually made up of a row of colours.He counted seven colours in all.This was of course a great discovery.But Newton still wasnt satisfied.His mind was busy with another problem.Befo

11、re Newtons time,scientists had already discovered that the sun,not the earth,was the centre of the universe,and they knew that the earth and the other planets moved round the sun.But they couldnt explain why this was so until Newton gave the answer.One autumn evening while Newton was sitting under a

12、n apple tree thinking over these problems,he saw the moon rise in the sky.Why,he asked himself,should the moon round the earth,never leaving the same path?At that moment,he heard an apple drop from the tree.Why should the apple drop to the ground?Why didnt it go sideways or fly up?There seemed to be

13、 only one reason:The earth was drawing itthat is the force of gravity.If a stone is tied to the end of a string and whirled around,it flies round and round in circles because of the string.In the same way,the force of gravity,thought Newton,must be the force that keeps the moon going round the earth

14、 and the planets round the sun.6This passage tells us.A.Newton gave the right answer to the making up of the sunlightB.Newton found that the moon goes round the earthC.how Newton made two of his greatest discoveriesD.why Newton made two of his great discoveries at home答案C解析主旨大意题。整篇文章的内容集中在牛顿是怎样得出两项重

16、.Newton counted the number of colours.A.e,d,c,a,bB.e,a,c,b,dC.d,a,e,b,cD.d,e,a,b,c答案C解析细节理解题。由第二段第三、四句知,牛顿先发现太阳光由一组颜色组成,然后再数颜色的数目。由此排除A、B和D三项。8Which of the following is the nearest in meaning to “But they couldnt explain why this was so until Newton gave the answer.”?A.But Newton gave the answer bec

17、ause they couldnt explain why.B.But Newton couldnt explain why unless they gave the answer.C.But it was Newton who gave the answer.D.But Newton was the first to give the answer.答案D解析句意猜测题。句意“直到牛顿给出答案他们才知道为什么会这样”,由此得出答案为D项。CAccording to the new research from the University of Cambridge in England,she

27、es.答案D解析推理判断题。由最后一段最后一句“Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change.”可知,从这篇文章中可以推断出新的发现有益于对认知能力改变的研究。故选D项。12Whats the best title of the passage?A.A Wonderful ScientistB.How Sheep Recognize Each OtherC.A New Discovery about SheepD.The Life of Sheep答案C解析主旨大意题。根据第一段“According t

36、his is of great importance to the scientific research.18A.On B.In C.At D.With答案A解析由下文的“on the other hand”可知,此处应为on the one hand“一方面”,为固定搭配。19A.advisedB.are advisedC.adviseD.advising答案B解析advise后不能直接跟不定式。根据句意此处需用被动语态。20A.spaceB.roomC.atmosphereD.discussion答案C解析句意“建议人们给研究工作提供一种自由的氛围”。space和room表示“空间”时,

37、均为不可数名词,其前不能使用不定冠词a。discussion“讨论”,不符合句意。21A.goodB.harmfulC.benefitD.harm答案B解析根据“on the other hand”与前面构成的相反的关系,可知harmful符合句意。be harmful to意为“对有害”。22A.onB.inC.forD.with答案C解析这样,对政府来说是否限制科学研究和发展应该有个平衡。for 意为“对于来说”。23A.limitB.improveC.blockD.puzzle答案A解析根据这句话中的“balance”可以推断出选A项。improve “改进”;block“封锁,阻碍,堵

38、住”;puzzle“(使)迷惑;(使)为难”。24A.ForB.WhenC.Now thatD.As soon as答案C解析now that意为“既然”,其引导的句子与后一句话成因果关系。for意为“由于”,也可引导表示原因的分句,但常放在主句的后面,且有逗号将其与主句隔开。25A.in advanceB.in an advanceC.in the advanceD.in advances答案A解析既然科学研究是一项可预先做的工作。in advance “预先;事先”,固定短语。26A.valueB.valuableC.helplessD.useless答案B解析对政府甚至是公众来说很难确定

39、一项研究是否是有价值的。根据句意可知选B项。27A.asB.as forC.likeD.unlike答案D解析但是科学研究不像其他事情,没有创造是行不通的。根据句意可知选D项。28A.CreateB.CreativityC.CreativeD.Creator答案B解析承前,众所周知,创造性是不应被限制的。creativity“创造”,为名词;create为动词,意为“创造”;creative为形容词,意为“有创造力的”;creator为表示人的名词,意为“创建者,创作者”。29A.look backB.look outC.look intoD.look after答案A解析如果回顾过去,我们将

40、发现许多深远的研究工作都来自自由的思考。look back“回想;记起”;look out“注意”;look into“调查”;look after“照顾”。30A.a good manyB.a great deal ofC.a good fewD.a good little答案B解析a good many和a great deal of都意为“很多”,前者接可数名词复数,后者接不可数名词。其他两个词组搭配不正确。31A.wonderfulB.greatC.terribleD.raw答案D解析由下文的“His raw idea .meaningless .”可知选D项。32A.inB.forC

42、A解析在那时没人能够断定爱因斯坦的这一想法将导致一场物理方面的全球性革命。tell此处意为“断定”。36A.badB.rudeC.globalD.terrible答案C解析global“全球性的”,符合句意。其他三项表示消极意义,故排除。37A.ThusB.HoweverC.AndD.But答案A解析这样看来,没有限制的自由思考从某种程度上能够鼓励创造性。thus“因而;从而”;however“然而,可是”;and和but之后一般不用逗号。第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。We high school student
