18、y choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers onANSWER SHEET. Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids(小行星)now，one might crash(碰撞) into Earth and destroy life as we know it，say some scientists. Asteroids are bigger versions（版本）of the meteoroids(流星)that race across the night sky. Most orbit(绕
19、着.转) the sun far from Earth and dont threaten us. But there are also thousands whose orbits put them on a collision(碰撞) course with Earth. Buy $50 million worth of new telescopes right now. Then spend $ 10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a
20、fatal one，the scientists say， well have a way to change its course. Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons. But the cost wouldnt be cheap. Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: 1) How likely the event is; and 2) How bad the consequenc
21、es if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare-but if one did fall，it would be the end of the world.“If we dont take care of these big asteroids，theyll take care of us， ”says one scientist.“Its that
22、 simple.” The cure，though，might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets(船队；舰队) of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? “The world has less to fear from doomsday(毁灭性的) rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them， ”said a New York Times article. 41. What does the passage say
23、 about asteroids and meteoroids? A. They are heavenly bodies different in composition（构成）. B.They are heavenly bodies similar in nature. C.There are more asteroids than meteoroids. D.Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids. 42. What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Ear
24、th? A.It is very unlikely but the danger exists. B.Such a collision might occur once every 25 years. C.Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected. D.Its still too early to say whether such a collision might occur. 43. What do people think of the suggestion of using nuc
25、lear weapons to alter the course of asteroids? A.It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem. B.It may create more problems than it might solve. C.It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely. D.Further research should be done before it is proved appli
26、cable. 44. We can conclude from the passage that. A.while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world B.asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future C.the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happ
27、en in our 英语第 4页 共 5 页 lifetime D.workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth 45. Which of the following best describes the authors tone in this pass age? A.Optimistic.B.Critical.C.Objective.D.Arbitrary（武断的） Passage 2. (10 points) Life is Not a Bed of Ros
28、es There are two kinds of people who take two different views towards life: the optimistic(乐观的) and the pessimistic(悲观的). Optimistic people look at life through rose-colored spectacles(眼镜), and pessimistic people take a dim(阴暗的) view. For those who take a positive view of life, life is great if you
29、dont weaken. They think that life is like the moon: now dark, now full and that life is subject to ups and downs(起起落落). When they are put at disadvantage, they keep a stiff upper lip(咬紧牙关) instead of giving up hope, and when the sun is shining, they strike while the iron is hot and do everything pos
30、sible to add fullness to their lives. They know what is meant by “Make hay while the sun shines.” These people never miss any opportunity to do things, whether it is a small thing or a great task. They never overlook(忽略) small things, for they believe life is made up of little things. These people a
31、lso know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. But, people who take a pessimistic view of life think that life is a game played with marked cards. They also think that life is an onion(洋葱) which one peels crying. To these people, there is more in life to be endured than to be enjoyed. If,
32、 say, they run into some difficulty or get a setback, they would either curse their fate and abandon themselves to despair or complain about other people and plan to take revenge on them. These people, because of their negative attitude towards life, find that the sun is never shining on them. All i
33、n all, everything has two sides. We must know the fact that every dark cloud has a silver lining and that every bean has its black. Therefore, we should neither forget ourselves when we are on the gravy train, nor give up hope when the sun is not shining on us. Direction: Judge whether the following
34、 statements are true(T) or false(F) according to the passage. () 46. The purpose of this article is to encourage people to be more optimistic. () 47.“Make hay while the sun shines”means “Make a lot of money when you are happy.” () 48. Pessimistic people think that life is like the moon. () 49. To op
35、timistic people, there is more in life to be endured than to be enjoyed. () 50. Its implied that people tend to forget who they are when they are on the gravy train. Passage 3. (10 points) Direction. Read the following passage and finish the tasks according to the passage. I think weve moved a long
36、way here over the last few years to implement（履行；完成）a GPS-based system called NextGen, which is the air traffic management system thats rolling out across the United States with complete implementation by the end of 2011 and into early 2012. Those also use GPS, and the benefit of it for our cars. Bu
37、t what would be the benefit for passengers? What would be different about the way we fly and how easy or how hard it is to fly? I think there are numerous benefits to going to a GPS-based system, including better-controlled ascents（起 飞）and descents（降落）, savings of fuel and the economies that result
38、from that, less carbon dioxide emissions(排放二氧化碳) and safer overall, general capabilities in terms of understanding where all the planes are at every single point in time and it gives, just a different dimension of capability to our Federal Aviation Administration in the air traffic controllers. That
39、s one of the things, I think, that surprises me, maybe other people as well. I read that it helps pilots(飞 行员) know where the other planes are now. I kind of thought the pilot would know where the other planes are, but thats not the case with radar. Well you know with the GPS-based system, the pilot
40、s will actually have a better situation awareness(意识) in the cabin(机舱). Theyll have more air traffic information and climate information thats rendered available to 英语第 5页 共 5 页 them in the cabin. And I think its gonna make a difference in terms of their total situational awareness which is a good t
