T， films have brought aliens to Earth as friends or enemies but, as yet, no one has proved they have ever seen an alien apart from on film or TV.In 1960, a radio telescope was pointed out into space to listen for signs of aliens, trying to add scientific fact to the question “is anybody out there”. But 50 years on, nobody knows the answer to it.“Its probably the most important question there is，” says Dr. Frank Drake, who was a pioneer of radio astronomy. “What does it mean to be a human being? What is our future? Are there other creatures like us? What have they bee? What can evolution produce? How far can it go? It will all e out of learning of aliens and this will certainly enrich our lives like nothing else could.”“We should be prepared for aliens，” says professor of space science John Zarnecki, from the Open University. Stephen Hawking says aliens almost certainly exist and senior astronomer Seth Shostak almost ignored the possibility that theres nothing to search for.But if there are aliens then the question is why we havent got any firm evidence of their existence. This was a question asked by the physicist Enrico Fermi as far back as 1950, saying “where is everybody”But Dr. Drake has a more simple answer to why life hasnt been found: “We just havent tried enough，” he says. “Weve looked carefully at only a few thousand stars and very few channels and thats hardly even a start. There may be around 10,000 civilisations we can discover in the galaxy. Thats one in 10,000,000 stars. Before we have a good chance of succeeding, we still have a long way to go.”地球以外是否有外星人？这是大家都非常感兴趣的一个话题。尽管人类至今还没有发现外星人，但是很多科学家都相信外星人的存在。1. The stories of Superman and E. T. are based on _.A. real eventsB. artists imaginationC. personal experiencesD. scientific discoveries答案：B推理判断题。由第一段可知，人们除了在电影、电视等艺术作品里看到过外星人以外，没有任何人能证明见到过外星人。由此可推断，电影超人和E.T.外星人的故事建立在艺术家们想象的基础之上。2. Dr. Frank Drake asks some questions in Paragraph 3 to _.A. prove the existence of aliensB. doubt the existence of aliensC. express his interest in human beings futureD. show the importance of understanding aliens答案：D细节理解题。第三段中Dr. Frank Drake提出的很多问题都是为该段最后一句话做铺垫。最后一句话说明了研究外星人的重要意义。3.

What can be inferred from the passage?A. Aliens have been seen by some people.B. Aliens often appear in the films as enemies.C. It remains unknown whether there are aliens.D. Scientists have studied millions of stars to search for aliens.答案：C推理判断题。虽然文中的很多科学家相信外星人存在，但是还没有确凿的证据，所以外星人是否真正存在还是一个广泛争议的未解之谜，故C项正确。BDo you want to be the centre of attention at Halloweens Party?

Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.A bumblebee if dropping into an open glass cup will be there until it dies, _7_ it is taken out.It never sees the means of escape at the top，but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the _8_ .It will seek a way where none _9_ (exist)，until it pletely destroys itself.In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee.They are struggling with all their problems and frustrations, not _10_(realize) that the answer is right there above them.1. _2. _3. _4. _5. _6. _7. _8. _9. _10. _这是一篇议论文。其实在很多方面，很多人也像秃鹫、蝙蝠和大黄蜂一样，使尽浑身解数试图解决问题，却没有意识到解决之道就在正上方。1entirely考查副词。根据句子的结构可知，此处要用副词修饰形容词open。2that考查连接词。该空应填that，引导表语从句。3Without考查介词。根据句子的意思可知此处指没有足够的助跑空间。所以要用without。4ordinary考查形容词。根据句子的意思可知，此处要用形容词作定语。5is placed考查被动语态。句子的主语和谓语之间是被动关系，所以要用被动语态。6doubt考查名词。短语no doubt意思是“毫无疑问”。7unless考查连词。根据句子的意思可知，要用unless，意思是“除非”。8bottom考查名词。由于前面有定冠词，所以要用名词；再由前面的top和but可知此处填bottom。9exists考查动词时态。根据语境，表示现在的情况，要用一般现在时，由于从句的主语为none，所以要用其单数形式。10realizing考查非谓语动词。根据句子的结构来判断，此处是用现在分词作状语，表示伴随的情况。
