But man only saw the six planets that could be seen by man with eyes alone.The Greeks studied astronomy over 2,000 years ago. They could see the size，color，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 coming to the field of astronomy helped man reach out into space.Until there were telescopes that helped man see farther to the sky，man knew a little about the moon.Without the radio telescopes，we did not know that radio noises came from far in space.Today，astronomy is a growing science. We have learned more in the past fifty years than in the whole history of astronomy.A new report said that the US scientists have discovered the 10th planet that is called 2003 UB313，but Pluto was kicked out of the nine planets of the Solar system by scientists recently.第二节到此结束。第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。Monthly Talks at London Canal MuseumOur monthly talks start at 19：30 on the first Thursday of each month except August. Admission is at normal charges and you dont need to book. They end around 21：00.November 7thThe Canal Pioneers, by Chris Lewis.

James Brindley is recognized可知C项正确。22What is the topic of the talk in February?AThe Canal Pioneers.BIce for the Metropolis.CEyots and AitsThames Islands.DAn Update on the Cotswold Canals.解析：D细节理解题。根据February 6th下面的内容可知2月6日讲座的主题是“An Update on the Cotswold Canals”，故D项正确。23Who will give the talk on the islands in the Thames?AMiranda Vickers.BMalcolm Tucker.CChris Lewis.DLiz Payne.解析：A细节理解题。根据March 6th下面的Eyots and AitsThames Islands，by Miranda Vickers.可知A项正确。The plan: turn the Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields，and then fill it with creatures from the earth.This idea may sound like something from science fiction，but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.This suggests the future for the “red planet” will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA this week. Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event. It comes as NASA is preparing a multibilliondollar Mars research programme.“Turning the Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction，”said Dr.Michael Meyer，NASAs senior scientist. “Now，with scientists exploring the reality，we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing the Mars.”Most scientists agree that the Mars could be turned into a little earth，although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal. But many experts are shocked by the idea.“We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet，”said Paul Murdin from the Institute of Astronomy，Cambridge，UK.Over the past months，scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms. Europe and Americas robot explorers have found the proof that water，mixed with soil，exists in large amounts on the planet.In addition，two different groups of scientists announced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane(甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere；the gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes(微生物) living in the red planets soil.But scientists such as Dr.Lisa Pratt，a biologist at Indiana University，say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project.“Before we have even discovered if there is life on the Mars，we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native life forms，all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil，” said Dr.Lisa Pratt.Monica Grady，a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum，London，shares this view.“We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for，” she said.“This is just wrong.”语篇导读本文是一篇科普说明文。在太空开拓人类新的生存领地一直是科幻小说的主题，也是人类一直希望实现的梦想。如今，美国的一部分科学家想把红色火星改造成蓝色的“生命天堂”。就这一提议且看科学家们唇枪舌剑辩得失。24The passage is about _.Aa plan turning the Mars into a little earthBthe necessity of changing the MarsCfinding water on the MarsDthe Mars supporting life解析：A主旨大意题。由第一段可以看出，人们计划将火星变为一个小地球。后文就这一计划是否应该实施进行了探讨。故文章是围绕将火星变为小地球这一话题展开的。25Why is Dr.Lisa Pratt against the plan?AWater has been found on the Mars.BIt will cost too much money and work.CThe native life forms on the Mars would be destroyed.DThe earth is being destroyed at an unbelievable speed.解析：C细节理解题。由倒数第三段可知，莉萨博士反对该计划的原因是担心火星上的微生物会受到破坏。26What could prove the existence of microbes living in the Mars soil?ALiquid water on the Mars.BSome creatures on the Mars.CA lot of good soil on the Mars.DSigns of methane in the Mars atmosphere.解析：D推理判断题。由倒数第四段可以看出，科学家在火星上发现了甲烷，而甲烷是生物排放出的一种气体。由此科学家认为火星上有微生物存在。27We can infer from the passage that _.Awater is a key factor for life；without it，living on the Mars would be impossibleBthe project wont affect the native life forms supposed to live on the MarsCthe idea turning the Mars into a little earth is nothing but science fictionDMonica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth project解析：A推理判断题。由倒数第五段可知，科学家对于能够在火星上发现生物非常有自信，因为欧洲和美国的机器人已经发现了水存在的证据。由此我们可推知，水是生命存在的重要因素。There have been many great inventions，which have changed the way we live. The first great invention was one that is still very important todaythe wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things to travel long distances. For hundreds of years there were few inventions that have made as much effect as the wheel. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didnt have to explore(开发) much any more. They began to work to make life better instead.In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera，the electric light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today. The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions.The helicopter in 1909. Sound movies in 1926. The computer in 1928，and jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was made. Nylon came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wear. The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live long lives. By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60. By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued to be made. But man had a wish to explore again. The world is known to man but the stars are not yet. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries，including China and Japan，have made their steps into space.语篇导读本文为说明文，文中介绍了几种与人们现实生活有关的伟大的发明。28The first great invention ever known was _.Athe cameraBthe wheelCthe electric lightDthe radio解析：B细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知第一种伟大的发明是轮子(wheel)。29Which of the following was turned out nearly at the same time with the jet plane?AThe radio.BThe camera.CNylon.DThe helicopter.解析：C细节理解题 。根据第二段“and jet planes in 1930.”及“Nylon came out in 1935.”可知这两种发明出现的时间几乎差不多，故选C项。30We can safely come to the conclusion that peoples life will be made even better through _.Anew discoveriesBgreater inventionsCbetter ways to get over diseasesDall of above解析：D推理判断题。结合全文讲述的发明及重要发现，及第二段“The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases.”可知D比较全面。31This passage talks mainly about _.Ahow inventions affect peoples lifeBwhen electric light was inventedCwhich country made the first step into spaceDwhy cars were very important解析：A主旨大意题。根据首段第一句及下文所述可知本文主要是介绍发明是如何影响人们的生活的。Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives.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 kilometers above the equator.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 kilometers an hourexactly the same speed that the earth rotates.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 1012 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.语篇导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。32Which of the following is NOT done by satellites according to the passage?ASending information for weather forecasts.BTaking photographs of the Earth.CSending TV pictures.DProviding food for airplane pilots.解析：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。33Why does the satellite move around the world at the same speed as the Earth rotates?AIn order to take photographs.BIn order to stay in a certain position in the orbit.CIn order to move away from its orbit.DIn order to send television pictures.解析：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。34What does the underlined word “This” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?AA satellite.BA little rocket.CA satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.DThe satellite puts the rockets in the right position.解析：C词义猜测题。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。35Which is true of satellites?AA satellite usually works for about 1012 years.BEvery time a satellite gets broken，it is brought back to the Earth to be repaired.CA broken satellite is never left in space.DBroken satellites often crash into each other.解析：A细节理解题。根据最后一段不难看出A项正确。B项错在Every time；C项错在never；D项错在often，最后一句they can crash into each other.中can“可能”在此表示对客观情况的推测，不是事实。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。Tips for Cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience，there are three main reasons why people dont cook more often: ability，money and time._36_ Money is a topic Ill save for another day.
