He studied the

17、observations of comets which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not work it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.However, Halley had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematicia

18、n.Newton thought he had already worked out that problem，but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse.Then Halley set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He mad

19、e a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607 and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he though

20、t that there had not been three different comets as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times.The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction of what would happen in the future. He decid

21、ed that this comet would appear in the year 1758.There was 53 years to go before Halleys prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it，for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet had been called Halleys Comet in his honor.1Halley figured o

College graduates, generally enjoy higher salaries, _2_ (employ) more consistently, and work in nicer conditions. Collegeeducated people

25、vote more, give more to charity, and rely _3_ (little) on government support.Making the switch from _4_ (support) to supporting oneself can be a challenge, _5_ often a necessary one. Financial _6_ (dependent) for women is key, says Nancy Schlossberg, professor at University of Maryland. “I think _7_

26、 important for women to do some direct achievement, because chances are that women will live alone in later life, either divorced _8_ never married.”To Schlossberg, education is _9_ (critic) in the long run. She says, “You are going to do much better than before if you have a good education; you are

27、 going to be happier than before on condition that you have the education that enables you to do what you have to do in life. The question is _10_ you are ready at this time to go for it.”1Going解析：考查非谓语动词。设空处位于句首作主语，应用动名词形式，故填Going。2are_employed解析：考查动词时态和语态。根据语境可知，此处讲述的是现在的事实，设空处与enjoy和work为并列成分，故用一

28、般现在时； employ的逻辑主语为college graduates，它们之间为被动关系，故用一般现在时的被动语态，因此填are employed。3less解析：考查词性转换。句意：接受过大学教育的人更多参与投票，为慈善贡献更多，更少依赖政府支持。设空处应与前文more构成并列结构表比较，因此填其比较级less。4being_supported解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：从被支援到自力更生的转变会是一个挑战。介词from后接v.ing形式作宾语；根据句意，第一个support表示“被支援”，应用被动形式。因此填being supported。5but解析：考查连词。根据句意“尽管从被支援到

29、自力更生的转变会是一个挑战，但也是必须经历的挑战”可知，前后两句之间为转折关系，因此填but。6independence解析：考查词性转换。句意：经济上的独立对女性而言是很关键的。形容词financial后应接名词，根据句意可知，设空处表示“独立，不依赖”，因此填independence。7it解析：考查代词。 think it important for sb. to do sth.意为“认为做某事对某人而言很重要”，动词think后接形式宾语，真正的宾语为后置的不定式短语to do some direct achievement，因此填it作形式宾语。8or解析：考查连词。 either.

30、or.为固定短语，意为“要么要么”，因此填or。9critical解析：考查词性转换。句意：对施罗斯伯格来说，从长远来看，教育至关重要。设空处在句中作is的表语，故应用形容词形式。故填critical。10whether解析：考查表语从句。句意：问题是这一次你是否准备好了要为之努力。表达“是否”既可用if也可用whether，但设空处位于系动词be后引导表语从句，不能用if，因此填whether。.应用文写作假定你是李华，你的美国朋友Dylan以优异的成绩通过了汉语水平考试(HSK)。请你给他写一封祝贺信。注意：1词数80左右；2可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。Dear_Dylan，It_wa
