2020届一轮复习人教版必修三Unit4Astronomy -the science of the stars单元学案 If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars”.But they're not real stars. They are manmade satellites. And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS国际空间站). From now until July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth, and people can see it just with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest manmade satellite because scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there. When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most ambitious and expensive space program ever. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year. Scientists hope that the ISS will be a steppingstone for future space exploration. “The ISS will help us better understand the human body, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist. China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it. The ISS is not finished yet. More than 100 parts need to be put on. Scientists hope it will be finished as soon as possible. After it's finished, more than 90% of the world's population will be able to see the Space Station. So keep looking up, and maybe you'll see it get bigger. Section_Ⅰ Warming__Up_&_Reading_—_Prereading [原文呈现] HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTH No one knows exactly how the earth began, as it happened so long ago①.However, according to② a widely accepted③ theory④, the universe began with⑤ a “Big Bang⑥” that threw matter in all directions⑦.After that, atoms⑧ began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies. For several billion⑨ years after the “Big Bang”, the earth was still just a cloud of dust⑩.What it was to become was uncertain until between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago when the dust settled into a solid globe⑪. The earth became so violent⑫ that it was not clear whether the shape would last or not⑬. It exploded loudly with fire and rock.They were in time to⑭ produce carbon dioxide⑮, nitrogen⑯, water vapour⑰ and other gases, which were to make the earth's atmosphere⑱. What is even more important is that as the earth cooled down⑲, water began to appear on its surface. ①as it happened so long ago是as引导的原因状语从句。 ②according to“根据”,后跟名词、代词等,不跟me, us, view, opinion等词。 ③widely accepted广泛接受的 ④theory/'θIərI/ n.学说;理论 ⑤begin with (=start with) 从……开始,起源于 ⑥Big Bang宇宙大爆炸;创世大爆炸 ⑦in all directions (=in every direction)朝四面八方 ⑧atom/'ætəm/ n.原子 ⑨billion/'bIlIən/pron.&n.&adj.〈英〉万亿;〈美〉十亿 ⑩a cloud of dust一团尘埃 a cloud of 一般用来修饰不可数名词。 ⑪globe/ɡləʊb/ n.球体;地球仪;地球 global/'ɡləʊbl/ adj.全球性的;全世界的 ⑫violent/'vaIələnt/ adj.猛烈的;激烈的;强暴的 ⑬it为形式主语,whether从句为真正的主语。 ⑭in time to do sth./for sth.及时做某事;来得及做某事 in time及时;终于 ⑮carbon dioxide二氧化碳 carbon/'kɑːbən/ n.碳 dioxide/daI'ɒksaId/ n.二氧化物 ⑯nitrogen/'naItrədʒən/ n.氮 ⑰water vapour 蒸气;水蒸气 vapour/'veIpə/ n.水蒸气;蒸气 ⑱atmosphere/'ætməsfIə/ n.大气层;气氛 ⑲cool down 凉下来,冷却 地球上生命的起源 [第1~2段译文] 没有人确切知道地球是怎样开始的,因为在很久以前它就形成了。然而,根据一种普遍为人们所接受的理论,宇宙起源于一次大爆炸,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。 大爆炸后好几十亿年过去了,地球还只是一团尘埃。(随后)它变成什么没人确定,直到45~38亿年前,这团尘埃才慢慢地形成一个固态的球体。地球变得如此激烈动荡,以至于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和岩石,最终产生了二氧化碳、氮气、水蒸气和其他气体,从而形成了地球的大气层。更重要的是,随着地球冷却了下来,地球的表面开始出现了水。 Water had also appeared on other planets like Mars but, unlike⑳ the earth, it had disappeared later. It was not immediately obvious that water was to be fundamental○21 to the development of life○22.What many scientists believe is that the continued presence of water○23 allowed the earth to dissolve○24 harmful○25 gases and acids○26 into the oceans and seas. This produced a chain reaction○27, which made it possible for life to develop. Many millions of years later, the first extremely small plants began to appear on the surface of the water. They multiplied○28 and filled the oceans and seas with oxygen○29, which encouraged○30 the later development of early shellfish○31 and all sorts of fish. Next, green plants began to grow on land. They were followed in time by land animals. Some were insects. Others, ○32called amphibians○33, were able to live on land as well as○34 in the water. Later when the plants grew into forests, reptiles○35 appeared for the first time. They produced young generally by laying eggs○36.After that, some huge animals, called dinosaurs○37, developed. They laid eggs too and existed○38 on the earth for more than 140 million years. However, 65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs○39 ended. Why they suddenly disappeared○40 still remains a mystery. This disappearance made possible the rise of mammals○41 on the earth. These animals were different from all life forms in the past, because they gave birth to○42 young baby animals and produced milk to feed them. ⑳unlike/ʌn'laIk/ prep.与……不同;不像 ○21fundamental/ˌfʌndə'mentl/ adj.基本的;基础的 be fundamental to是……的基础 ○22It was not immediately obvious that ..., it为形式主语,that引导的从句为真正的主语。 ○23the continued presence of water 水的长期存在 continued adj.持续不断的 presence/'prezns/ n.出席;到场;存在 ○24dissolve/dI'zɒlv/vt.&vi.溶解;解散 ○25harmful/'hɑːmfl/ adj.有害的 be harmful to对……有害(=do harm to) ○26acid/'æsId/ n.酸 ○27a chain reaction连锁反应 chain/tʃeIn/n.链子;连锁;锁链 in chains戴着镣铐 reaction/rI'ækʃn/ n.反应;回应 ○28multiply/'mʌltIplaI/vi.&vt.乘;增加 ○29oxygen/'ɒksIdʒən/ n.氧 ○30encourage vt.鼓励;激励;促进;激发 ○31shellfish/'ʃelfIʃ/n.水生有壳动物 ○32called amphibians“被称为两栖动物”,过去分词短语called ...作后置定语。 ○33amphibian/æm'fIbIən/ n.两栖动物 ○34as well as 也;还;与……一样好 ○35reptile/'reptaIl/n.爬行动物;爬虫 ○36lay eggs下蛋;产卵 ○37dinosaur n.恐龙 ○38exist/Ig'zIst/vi.存在;生存 ○39the age of the dinosaurs恐龙时代 ○40why引导的主语从句。 ○41the rise of mammals哺乳动物的兴起 mammal/'mæml/ n.哺乳动物 ○42give birth to 产生;分娩 [第3~4段译文] 在其他行星像火星上也出现了水,但和地球不同的是,这些水后来都消失了。水对生命的发展起关键作用,这一点在当时并不明显。很多科学家相信,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。这就产生了一个连锁反应,使生命的发展成为可能。 好几百万年以后,水的表面开始出现了第一批极小的植物。它们繁殖起来使得海洋充满了氧气,这为早期的贝类及各种鱼类后来的进化创造了条件。接着,绿色植物开始在陆地上生长。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,也能在水里生活。后来,当这些植物长成森林时,爬行动物第一次出现了。它们一般是通过孵蛋来繁衍后代的。再后来,一些叫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兴起成为了可能。这些动物不同于以往所有的生命形态,因为它们从体内生产出幼仔并给幼仔哺乳。 Finally about 2.6 million years ago some small clever animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth.Thus○43 they have, in their turn○44, 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○45 from the earth into space. As a result of○46 this, many scientists believe the earth may become too hot to live on○47.So whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on○48 whether this problem can be solved. ○43thus/ðʌs/ adv.因此;于是 ○44in one's turn轮到某人;接着 ○45prevent ...from doing阻止/制止……做 ○46as a result of由于……的结果 ○47too hot to live on太热而不能在上面居住 too ...to ...太……而不能……; live on中的on不能省略,因为the earth是其逻辑上的宾语,而live是不及物动词,后须加介词才能跟宾语。 ○48depend on取决于;依靠 [第5段译文] 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,他们并没有照顾好地球,他们把过多的二氧化碳排放到大气层中,这使得地球上的热量不能释放到太空中去。因此,许多科学家相信地球可能会变得太热而不适合(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。 Prereading Please match the words with their proper meanings. 1.astronomy A.学说;理论 2.system B.猛烈的;激烈的 3.theory C.大气层;气氛 4.violent D.基本的;基础的 5.atmosphere E.乘;增加 6.fundamental F.谜;(使)迷惑 7.harmful G.存在;生存 8.multiply H.有害的 9.exist I.天文学 10.puzzle J.系统;体系;制度 11.unlike K.宗教;宗教信仰 12.religion L.与……不同;不像 1~5________ 6~10________ 11~12________ 答案:1~5 IJABC 6~10 DHEGF 11~12 LK Leadin Look at the pictures below and answer the following questions. 1.Are you interested in astronomy?What can you see in the following pictures? 答案:A.The Solar System B.The Milky Way C.The Black Hole 2.Each religion and culture has its own ideas about how life began on the earth.What do you know about the origin of life on the earth?

Surprisingly a few bright comets have been discovered with the naked eye (肉眼) by members of the general public. However, a great number of comets are found by comet hunters carrying out telescope searches of chosen areas of the night sky. As the movement of all comets is directed around the Sun and because these bodies brighten as they move towards the Sun, there is a greater possibility for the discovery of a new comet in the skies towards the Sun rather than away from the Sun's direction.This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light. From the astronomical point there is no time during the year which is the best for the discovery of new comets. A search can be done at any time providing there is no bright Moon. Studies done on the discovery conditions of comets discovered before show that more comets have been discovered in the morning sky than in the evening sky.Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much if not more attention than any evening effort. In recent times, the use of advanced CCD technology to discover objects close to the Earth will in the future greatly reduce the chances of new comets being found with small telescopes. An example of the new technology is the very successful LINEAR program operating in New Mexico. However, until a similar system is based in the southern half of the Earth there will continue to be chances for the discovery of new comets which come from the south. 语篇解读:本文是说明文。文章介绍了观测彗星的要领。 1.What are comet hunters advised to do? A.Look away from the Sun. B.Stay where there's bright light. C.Face the western sky in the daytime. D.Turn to the east in the early morning. 解析:选D 细节理解题。由第二段中的“This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light.”可知,早晨太阳出来之前应观测东面的天空。 2.What do we know about the time for the discovery of new comets? A.Days when they're close to the Earth are great chances. B.Certain fixed days are best for watching comets. C.Every day is the same if there's no bright Moon. D.Days with the Moon should never be missed. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第三段中的“A search can be done at any time providing there is no bright Moon.”可知,只要没有月亮,每一天对彗星猎人来说都一样可以观测。 3.Which of the following is a smart idea for comet hunters? A.Paying more attention in the morning than in the afternoon. B.Being equally serious both in the morning and afternoon. C.Being more relaxed in the morning than in the afternoon. D.Forming a habit of working only in the morning. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由第四段中的“Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much if not more attention than any evening effort.”可知,早晚观测彗星应该投入一样的精力。 4.What can be inferred about the CCD technology? A.It's similar to a telescope. B.It'll disappoint comet hunters. C.It's spreading all over the world. D.It'll make comet hunters feel lucky. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“the use of advanced CCD technology ...greatly reduce the chances of new comets being found with small telescopes”可知,这种技术降低了追星猎人发现新的彗星的概率,因此他们应该会感到有些失望。 B Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of comets which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical (数学上的) problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems. However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. 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 (椭圆). Now Halley set to work. He figured out (解决;计算出) the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made 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. The different comets followed the same orbit. The more halley thought about it, the more he thought 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 (预言) of what comet would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758.There were 53 years to go before Halley's prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he has died some years before. Ever since then that comet has been called Halley's comet, in his honor. 语篇解读:本文主要介绍了200多年前英国科学家哈雷以及他的发现。 5.Halley made his discovery ________. A.by doing experiments B.by means of his own careful observation C.by using the work of other scientists D.by chance 解析:选C 细节理解题。由文中第三段“He figured out (解决;计算出) the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists.”可知应选C。 6.Halley made a surprising, but correct prediction in the year ________. A.1704 B.1705 C.1706 D.1707 解析:选B 数字计算题。由最后一段中的“He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758.There were 53 years to go before Halley's prediction could be tested.”可知,他预言彗星出现的时间是1758年,而这个预言还要经过53 年才能验证,由此可以推断出哈雷做出这个预言的时间是1705年。 7.This passage in general is about ________. A.Halley and other scientists B.the orbit of a comet C.Newton and Halley D.Halley and his discovery 解析:选D 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了哈雷以及他的发现。 8.Which of the following is TRUE? A.Edmund Halley was an American scientist. B.Halley made his discovery by doing experiments. C.Newton was a famous mathematician. D.The orbit of a comet had the shape of a circle. 解析:选C 细节理解题。从文章首句可以看出A项错误;从第三段的分析中可知B项也错误;由第二段可知,牛顿告诉哈雷彗星的轨道是椭圆形的,可排除D项。 C My friend Tim was one of five children. His father was an alcoholic and died very young, and his mother was unable to support the family. Unfortunately, the children were separated and placed in foster homes (收养家庭). Tim dropped out of school and did nothing to further himself. He eventually went through a divorce. Tim's brother, although experiencing the same childhood, educated himself and got a good job. He has a happy family and a wonderful home. Both brothers gave a similar answer when asked why their lives turned out the way they did. They said, “You'd turn out this way too if you had a childhood like mine.” Neither of the brothers could change his past, but one of them adjusted (调整) his sail. It doesn't take much to find an excuse whether that is our family background, our lack of education, or that we live in the wrong city, or do not know the right people. Each one of these excuses has a solution. However, if you believe that there is nothing you can do to turn your life around, then you won't be able to change your life for the better. If you really desire to turn your life to a new course, to set your sail to a different port, it is a matter of choice. If you choose to move forward, the easiest way is to find a solution to your today's situation. Solutions are there if you want to go after them. Sure, it may take some hard work, or the willingness to take a risk. But if you do not, then you will never have a different or happy life. Do not limit yourself by finding an excuse; only limit yourself by refusing to have an excuse. 语篇解读:本文为夹叙夹议文。我们的过往是什么样子并不是很重要,因为未来掌握在我们自己手里。 9.Why does Tim's brother have a happy life? A.He had a happy childhood. B.He tried hard to change his life. C.He had a wonderful foster home. D.He was the smartest of his family. 解析:选B 推理判断题。由第二段“Tim's brother, although experiencing the same childhood, educated himself and got a good job.”可知,Tim的哥哥是因为努力改变自己的命运才有了一个幸福的生活。 10.What did Tim think led to his unhappy life? A.His laziness. B.Not adjusting his sail. C.His unhappy childhood. D.Not having any opportunities. 解析:选C 细节理解题。由第三段“They said, ‘You'd turn out this way too if you had a childhood like mine.’”可知,Tim将自己的不幸归咎于自己不幸的童年。 11.In the author's opinion, his friend Tim ________. A.really had no chance to improve his life B.failed because he lived in the wrong city C.was the most unfortunate man in the world D.could have changed his life if he had chosen to 解析:选D 推理判断题。由第四段“Each one of these excuses has a solution. However, if you believe that there is nothing you can do to turn your life around, then you won't be able to change your life for the better.”可知,作者认为Tim本来是可以改变自己的人生的。 12.What is the best title for the text? A.Adjust your sail B.Say “no” to excuses C.Move toward a happy family D.How we live our life is a choice 解析:选D 标题归纳题。由最后一段“If you really desire to turn your life to a new course, to set your sail to a different port, it is a matter of choice.”可知,本文旨在告诉我们,想过什么样的生活在于我们自己怎么选择。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 It is often seen that in many homes young children ask their parents for a pet, and yet their parents refuse due to the fear of spreading illnesses and the responsibility that comes with owning a pet.__1__ Here are some things that kids can learn from pets: Empathy (移情) and calmness.__2__ These lessons will help them in the future when they deal with other humans. And as they take care of their pets, children learn how to be calm, gentle, and caring, eventually growing up to be open and compassionate (有同情心的) adults. Companionship. Once you have a pet, your kid can always depend on having a friend and companion who will love and support him unconditionally. This makes him more selfconfident and also helps in developing an active lifestyle.__3__ Responsibility and discipline.__4__ Research shows that training of pets also develops discipline in kids. Appreciation of such achievements is sure to encourage them, and this will help them in the future. Reading skills.__5__ It is because while kids might be unwilling to read aloud in a formal setting, like a school, they are more confident to read out to animals, as the fear of being judged is not present. A.Proper care leads to good relationships with the animals. B.Pets can help with the educational development of children. C.Having a pet will help kids learn about the circle of life and death. D.But getting a pet is actually a good idea due to the various benefits. E.Tasks like feeding and walking the dog teach children to be responsible. F.This is especially important for only kids who don't have friends to play with. G.Being with pets, kids learn that animals feel pain and want love just like humans. 答案:1~5 DGFEB Section_Ⅱ Warming_Up_&_Reading_—_Language_Points 一、这样记单词 记得准•写得对 记得快•记得多 Ⅰ.基础词汇 1.astronomy n. 天文学 2.system n. 系统;体系;制度 3.theory n. 学说;理论 4.atom n. 原子 5.globe n. 球体;地球仪;地球 6.atmosphere n. 大气层;气氛 7.fundamental adj. 基本的;基础的 8.multiply vi.&vt. 乘;增加 9.oxygen n. 氧 10.puzzle n. 谜;难题 vt.&vi.

Section_Ⅳ Learning_about_Language_&_Using_Language [原文呈现] A VISIT TO① THE MOON Last month I was lucky enough to have a chance to② make a trip③ into space with my friend Li Yanping, an astronomer.We visited the moon in our spaceship④! Before we left, Li Yanping explained to me⑤ that the force of gravity⑥ would change three times on our journey and that the first change would be the most powerful. Then we were off⑦.As the rocket rose into the air, we were pushed back into⑧ our seats because we were trying to escape the pull⑨ of the earth's gravity.It was so hard that we could not say anything to each other⑩.Gradually⑪ the weight lessened⑫ and I was able to talk to him.“Why is the spaceship not falling back to⑬ the earth? On the earth if I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground.” I asked.“We are too far from⑭ the earth now to feel its pull,” he explained, “so we feel as if there is no gravity at all.When we get closer to⑮ the moon, we shall feel its gravity pulling⑯ us, but it will not be as strong a pull as⑰ the earth's.” I cheered up⑱ immediately and floated⑲ weightlessly⑳ around in our spaceship cabin○21 watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger○22.

Leaving the moon's gravity was not as painful as leaving the earth's.But returning to the earth was very frightening.We watched, amazed as fire broke out○31 on the outside of the spaceship as the earth's gravity increased.Again we were pushed hard into our seats as we came back to land.“That was very exhausting○32 but very exciting too,” I said.“Now I know○33 much more about gravity! Do you think we could visit some stars next time?”“Of course,” he smiled, “which star would you like to go to?” ○23come on快点儿。常用于祈使句中以鼓励某人,意为“动手吧;快点儿;加油”。 ○24step forward朝前走;迈步向前 ○25twice as far as“……的两倍远”。倍数表示法:倍数(twice, three times ...)+as+adj./adv.原级+as。 ○26fall over跌倒;摔倒 ○27动名词walking在此处作主语。does为助动词,加强语气,意为“确实”,其后跟动词原形。 ○28now that既然(引导原因状语从句) ○29get the hang of 熟悉;掌握;理解 ○30enjoy oneself尽情地玩;玩得高兴 ○31break out 突发;爆发 ○32exhaust/Iɡ'zɔːst/vt.用尽;耗尽;使精疲力尽 exhausting adj.令人精疲力尽的 exhausted adj.感到精疲力尽的 exhaustion n.精疲力尽;用光,耗尽 ○33know在此处相当于understand,意为“理解,明白”。 [第3~4段译文] 我们到达月球时,我就想立即进行探测。“来吧,”我说,“要是你讲得对,我的重量就会比在地球上小,因为月球更小,而我就能更自由地活动了。如果我在月球上待的时间足够长的话,我甚至可能长得更高,我的体重肯定也会变得更轻!”我笑着从宇宙飞船的梯级上爬下来。但当我试图往前走时,我发现自己被带到一个步幅相当于地球上两倍远的地方并且摔倒了。“天哪,”我大声说,“重力改变了,看来走路的确需要练一练了。”过了一会儿,我才掌握了走路的诀窍,我们这才开始感到自如了。 摆脱月球引力不像摆脱地球引力那样痛苦。但是返回到地球的经历却是非常吓人的。我们惊奇地看着,随着地球引力的增加,宇宙飞船的外层燃烧起火。当我们回到地面时,我们又(感到)被重重地推回在座位上。我说道:“真是精疲力尽了,但也很激动人心。关于引力,我现在就懂得更多了!你认为下次我们可以去别的星球上游览吗?”“当然可以,”他笑着说,“你想到哪颗星球上去呢?” Step 1 True (T) or False (F). 1.The spaceship can't fall back to the earth because it is too far away from the earth.( ) 2.When I was on the moon I felt I was heavier than I am on the earth.( ) 3.At the very beginning,the author felt strongest of the gravity of the earth.( ) 答案:1.T 2.F 3.T Step 2 Read the text and choose the best answers. 1.The passage mainly talks about________.

For example, the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite. Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving. Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls. Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites. Many of our TV programmes come to us through satellites. Airplane pilots also sometimes use a satellite to help them find their exact location. We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another. They are usually 35,880 kilometres above the equator (赤道).Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place. This is because it is moving around the world at 11,000 kilometres an hour — exactly the same speed that the earth rotates (转动).A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae (天线) facing the earth. Sometimes, it moves away from its orbit, so there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position. This usually happens about every five or six days. Space is not empty! Every week, more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth. A satellite usually works for about 10~12 years. Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to the Earth to be repaired. Often, very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time. This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other. 语篇解读:本文是一篇科普说明文。文章对各种卫星的用途、卫星工作的状态以及人们对已损坏卫星的处理办法进行了解释说明。 1.Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage? A.Sending information for weather forecasts. B.Taking photographs of the Earth. C.Sending TV pictures. D.Providing food for airplane pilots. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第一段和第三段首句不难看出,卫星可以传递天气预报信息、拍摄地球照片、传递电视图片等,但是没说为飞行员提供食物,所以选择D项。 2.Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates? A.In order to take photographs. B.In order to stay in a certain position in the orbit. C.In order to move away from its orbit. D.In order to send television pictures. 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第三段内容可以看出,卫星之所以用和地球自转相同的速度绕地球旋转,是为了保持在一定位置上。显然B项正确。 3.What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to? A.A satellite. B.A little rocket. C.A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky. D.The satellite puts the rockets in the right position. 解析:选C 代词指代题。this在此替代前文的“Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place.”故选C项。 4.Which is true of satellites? A.A satellite usually works for about 10~12 years. B.Every time a satellite gets broken, it is brought back to the Earth to be repaired. C.A broken satellite is never left in space. D.Broken satellites often crash into each other. 解析:选A 细节理解题。根据最后一段不难看出A项正确。 Ⅱ.语法填空 Friendship is one of the most important things in everyone's life.__1__ is very difficult to find a better definition (定义) of friendship.A true friend is the person __2__ can share all our sadness and double all our happiness.He or she is always at our side to give us his or her help and comfort.

I would have to take all my foods with me if I went to space travel, but in outer space, the gravity is so weak that the food will float around if it is solid.I must make sure that it is specially made as liquid space food.It could be put in a tube and then I would be able to suck it more easily.Perhaps I would use a straw to eat it.It can prevent the food from floating away.Only in this way would the problem be solved.I might have a happy visit to space in that way.I will have a try in time. Our geography teacher says the earth is only one of the planets of the giant solar system.Unlike other planets, life exists on the earth, but life's origin is still a puzzle.Different religions and cultures have separate ideas.The teacher says it may be divided into four stages. The first stage is about how the universe began.A widely accepted theory can explain it.After the “Big Bang” broke out, atom began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies.The second stage is how the earth formed.Between 4.5 and 3.8 billion years ago, clouds of dust floating in space settled into a solid globe.The earth became violent and it often exploded.The atmosphere and water appeared.Water is a fundamental matter for life to exist on the earth.It also dissolves harmful gases and acids.The third stage is about plants' and animals' appearance.At first, plants in the water appeared and multiplied.They produced oxygen, which encouraged animals in the water to exist.Later, green plants on the land caused animals on the land to appear.They first laid eggs and became babies.Later, mammals gave birth to babies directly.The last stage is that humans became the most important animals on the earth.We put too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to cause global warming.We must watch out how things will go and make laws to prevent the earth from becoming too hot.Now that we have taken measures, we will succeed in time.So let's cheer up and work together. 我们的地理老师说地球只是广阔的太阳系中的一颗行星而已。不像其他的行星,地球上有生命存在,但生命的起源依旧是一个谜。不同的宗教和文化有各自的看法。老师说它可以被分为四个阶段。 第一个阶段是关于宇宙是怎样诞生的。一个被普遍接受的理论可以解释它。“大爆炸”发生后,原子开始形成并结合成恒星和其他天体。第二个阶段是地球是怎样形成的。大约在38~45亿年前,漂浮在太空中的尘埃形成一个固体的球状物。地球活动剧烈,而且经常爆炸。大气层和水出现了。在地球上水是生命存在的最基本的物质。它同时也溶解有害气体和酸。第三个阶段是关于植物和动物的出现。首先,水生植物出现并繁殖。他们产生氧气,这使水生动物存在。后来,陆生植物使陆生动物出现。它们首先产卵,然后成为幼仔。后来,哺乳动物直接生幼仔。最后一个阶段是人类成为地球上最重要的动物。我们把大量的二氧化碳释放到大气层里,导致了全球变暖。我们必须密切注意事情的进展,制定法律阻止地球变得太热。既然我们已采取措施,我们最终会成功的。因此让我们振作起来一起努力吧。 加餐练(一) 完形阅读组合练 Ⅰ.完形填空 Do you like talking or working together with your parents?

At the River House in Maryland, a church community is running a program called the Men's Retreat with the purpose of helping men become better fathers.Here fathers can get parental advice.The program is also open to children who don't have fathers in their lives.For them, the program is an opportunity to interact (互动) with male role models. Businessman Pavel says though the Men's Retreat may take up some of his time to earn money, it has been a good opportunity to spend quality time with his son.He has realized that for boys, Father is the first teacher.And the gathering is also a great chance to think about how to improve the relationship with his wife. Program organizer Victor Visotski notes that the son is going along his father's path and learns from him.The father's role in a daughter's life is as important as that in his son's life.A father for a daughter is a hero and he is the first man she admires.It is important that the father creates a family atmosphere filled with love, because the daughter observes the behavior of her father closely.Mr.Visotski says a father must take his duties as a parent as seriously as his career.Setting aside quality time to spend with his child is a good start. 语篇解读:本文为说明文。抚养孩子历来被认为是母亲的角色。但在生活中,父亲对孩子的影响也是非常重要的。马里兰州举行的“男人的静修”活动可以帮助男人更好地扮演父亲的角色。 1.We can learn from the modern sociology that ________.

Then he can get in for half price.That will be 60 dollars altogether. (Text 4) M:What do you think of it? I was worried you would think it was too far. W:Well, it's true.I've never driven two hours just for a roast duck.But really, I think it's worth it. (Text 5) W:What an accident! If you had been more careful, we would not be in this terrible situation. M:What do you mean? Was it my fault? If it was, I would surely take responsibility for it. (Text 6) M:Excuse me, Miss.Could you make the airconditioner cooler?

M:OK, let's get on our bikes and go for a picnic today.And we'll buy this new kind of car sometime later.I hope the environment will get better in the future. (Text 10) (M)The experience of dining in China is far different from eating at restaurants in America.Manners and menus are almost entirely opposite. Menus in China are usually picture books.Almost every single dish has a picture.Chinese people order food according to the pictures, not the written descriptions on the menu or the descriptions from the waiters. Furthermore, each table is typically only given one menu, and when the menu is placed before them, the waiter stands next to the table ready to write down the order.You don't sit at the table and talk for several minutes before ordering.You order when you sit almost immediately. In China, people are used to dining in noisy environments, which are considered welcoming and joyful.So, if you need to call a waiter in China, call loudly and wave your hand.It's appropriate to stop anyone in the restaurant and ask them for something.This is not rude.It is expected! And cold water? It doesn't exist at the dinner table in China.Hot water is almost always served, even in the middle of summer and even while eating the spiciest food.And if you order a beer or a bottle of water, better ask for it cold, or the waiter will serve at room temperature. 第二部分 阅读理解 (满分40分,限时35分钟) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A Luna Grill is a fast casual dining restaurant, which offers healthy food at fair prices.Now it is offering jobs to teenagers who want to work.

The sun is the closest star to the earth. The sun is about 150 million kilometers away. Our sun, like most other stars, gives off power and light by nuclear fusion (核聚变), which happens exactly where it's the hottest. The sun is about 4.5 billion years old and it will still last six billion years or so. When it runs out of its fuel (燃料), it would develop into a red star when increasing in size. Since stars are billions of light years away, it may be hard to recognize that stars are in continuous battles with themselves. All the stars have their own gravitational pull (引力) that pulls them. The surprising part is that the nuclear fusion occurring inside the star truly produces an outward (向外的) push to resist (抵抗) the gravitational force, which keeps its present shape. Stars have different colors. The hottest stars are surprisingly the smallest ones and are blue in color. Their temperatures go to about 12,000 Kelvin. Although the yellowcolored stars are the middlesized ones just like the sun, their temperatures fall to about 6,000 Kelvin. And lastly, the coolest and greatest ones are colored red and the temperatures of them are about 3,000 Kelvin. When looking at the night sky, we may think that stars are up there alone. But don't be surprised that these heavenly bodies in fact come in pairs. And stars can even come in groups of 3 or even 4! 语篇解读:本文是说明文。作者在文中告诉我们一些有关星星的有趣事实。 24.What will happen when the sun runs out of its fuel? A.It will disappear slowly. B.It will last six billion years. C.It will become a white star. D.It will become larger in size. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段的“When it runs out of its fuel (燃料), it would develop into a red star when increasing in size.”可知,当太阳用完了它的能量,它就变成了红色的星球,体积增大了。 25.What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A.All stars are in a state of balance. B.It's hard for the stars to keep their shapes. C.The stars have the same gravitational pull. D.The stars always stay in peace with one another. 解析:选A 推理判断题。根据第三段的“The surprising part is that the nuclear fusion occurring inside the star truly produces an outward (向外的) push to resist (抵抗) the gravitational force, which keeps its present shape.”可知,星球都处于一种自身的平衡中。 26.What do we know about the color of the star? A.It is blue when it is very cold. B.It looks red when it is far away. C.It seems yellow when it is over 3,000 Kelvin. D.It has something to do with its size and temperature. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知,星星的颜色与它的大小和温度有关。 27.How do all the stars appear in space in reality? A.They appear only in pairs. B.They appear without rules. C.They stay alone here and there. D.They appear in small groups or in pairs. 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知,星星在太空中不是孤立地出现,而是以双子星的形式出现,有时候星星是以三个或四个一组的形式出现。 C Want to get thin? Eat more fruit and vegetables — they're a lowcalorie (热量) way of filling up, right? It depends which ones you eat.Eating starchy (含淀粉的) vegetables such as corn and potatoes was linked to weight gain.Eating more highfibre, lowerglycemic (低血糖的) vegetables was associated with weight loss.Lowerglycemic foods do not raise blood sugar levels as much as higher ones. The study from Harvard University looked at changes in the intake of specific fruit and vegetables recorded from 133,468 US men and women over 24 years.It took into account other lifestyle factors that affect weight, such as smoking, amount of sleep, hours of watching television and exercise.Dr Monica L Bertoia, the lead author, says that, in America, the most common choices of fruit and vegetables are orange juice and potatoes.“There are many fruits and vegetables that may be better choices for the prevention of weight gain, such as apples, pears, berries and nonstarchy vegetables,” she says. The idea of eating more fruit and vegetables to lose weight only works if you eat less of something else — all calories count.A study last year looking at previous research on weight loss and increased fruit and vegetable intake in more than 1,200 people, found that people who didn't reduce their calorie intake overall did not lose weight. Different fruit and vegetables have different qualities.So if you want highfibre, lowglycemic fruit, go for blueberries and avocados (油梨).Strawberries (草莓) are low on fibre but good on the lowglycemic index (指数), as is grapefruit — unless you pour sugar on it.Pears and apples come out well, even though they have a highglycemic index — their higher fibre, which is good for weight loss, may compensate.For vegetables, try tofu, cauliflower and sweet potatoes or yams (山药) rather than potatoes.But remember, they all still have calories. 语篇解读:本文为说明文。研究发现多吃水果和蔬菜不一定能帮助减肥。 28.In losing weight, what does Bertoia think of Americans' choice of fruit? A.She thinks highly of it. B.She thinks nothing of it. C.She hesitates to accept it. D.She is all for it. 解析:选C 推理判断题。由第二段“There are many fruits and vegetables that may be better choices for the prevention of weight gain ...”可知,Bertoia认为美国人吃果蔬的选择或许不是最理想的。 29.According to the text, what is the best way to lose weight? A.Taking in fewer calories. B.Eating more fruit and vegetables. C.Stopping smoking and watching TV. D.Choosing one special fruit or vegetable. 解析:选A 细节理解题。由第三段“The idea of eating ...if you eat less of something else”及“...found that people who didn't reduce their calorie intake overall did not lose weight.”可知,想要减肥的话,要在减少所有卡路里摄入量的基础上,多吃水果和蔬菜。 30.The underlined word “compensate” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “________”. A.do harm B.make up C.go down D.get improved 解析:选B 词义猜测题。由“Pears and apples come out well”及“even though”可知,尽管梨和苹果血糖指数高,但是其富含纤维,可以帮助减肥,从而“弥补或中和”这些负面影响。 31.The text is most likely to be taken out of a(n) ________. A.science report B.technology review C.education program D.food advertisement 解析:选A 文章出处题。从全文整体看,本文是关于水果蔬菜与减肥之间的关系,属于科学研究方面。 D Around the world, support is growing for electric cars.Car makers are producing more electric cars with a longer range (距离) and lower prices.Some European countries plan to be allelectric by 2040 or sooner.However, there are a lot of difficulties, including one practical consideration for customers: If they buy electric cars, where will they charge them? Public charging stations are not built evenly (均匀地) around the world.Places with lots of support from governments, like China and the Netherlands have thousands of public charging stations.But in many places, there are not many public chargers.That's a problem for people who need to drive further than the 200 miles or so that most electric cars can travel. This situation worries many potential (潜在的) electric car owners.“If I can't charge, there's no way for me to have an electric car as my primary transportation,” says Solie, who works far from his home. Mr.Romano, the CEO of ChargePoint, says workplaces should have around 2.5 chargers for every employee and stores need one for every 20 electric cars.Highways need one every 50 to 75 miles, he says. Luckily, car makers and governments are pushing to fill the gaps (差距).The number of chargers grew by 72 percent to more than 322,000 last year, the International Energy Agency says.BMW, Daimler, Volkswagen, and Ford are building 400 fastcharging stations in Europe. But there are pitfalls.There are different types of charging stations, and no one knows the exact mix drivers will finally need.A store might spend $5,000 for a charger, which provides a car with 5 to 15 miles of range in 30 minutes.But once most cars get 200 or 300 miles per charge, slow chargers are less necessary. 语篇解读:本文是议论文。文章探讨了电动汽车的充电问题:充电站的分布不均匀以及数量不够等影响电动汽车的销售。 32.What prevents potential customers from buying electric cars? A.The longtime charging. B.The power problem. C.The safety. D.The price. 解析:选B 细节理解题。由第一段和第二段中的“But in many places, there are not many public chargers.”可知答案。 33.What is Solie's attitude toward buying electric cars? A.Tired. B.Hopeful. C.Supportive. D.Uninterested. 解析:选D 推理判断题。由第三段中的“there's no way for me to have an electric car as my primary transportation”可知,由于充电问题,Solie对于购买电动汽车不感兴趣。 34.What do Mr.Romano's words suggest? A.There is a great need for chargers. B.The government should take action. C.Car makers will have a bright future. D.Electric cars are becoming less popular. 解析:选A 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“Luckily, car makers and governments are pushing to fill the gaps (差距).”可知,此处Romano先生意在说明充电装置数量的不足。 35.What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in the last paragraph mean? A.Dangers. B.Problems. C.Advantages. D.Achievements. 解析:选B 词义猜测题。由本段内容可知,充电装置的种类不同,但顾客到底需要怎样的充电组合设备,目前没有一个确切的答案,因此,即使增加了充电设备的数量,仍然可能存在问题。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 No matter how much we try to be smart, life has its own ways of teaching us the valuable lessons.__36__ Here are some of the life lessons that all of us learn the hard way: Lying is harmful.Everyone, at some point in life, must have certainly realized that lying is a very dangerous thing for the mind, which finally affects our health too.__37__ And also he would lose the trust of others.
