A.provide B.benefitC.share D.endanger答案：D解析：詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞所在句的內(nèi)容可知,太陽發(fā)出的熱會讓我們的生物圈陷入危險。故畫線詞與endanger同義。BAlbertEinsteinwasprobablythemostfamousscientistofthetwentiethcentury.Hechangedscientificthinkinginthemodernworld.Heisgenerallyconsideredasthegreatestphysicistwhoeverlived.What’smore,hedevotedalotofhistimeandenergytoworkingforhumanrightsandprogress.In1933,whileEinsteinwasvisitingEnglandandtheUnitedStates,theNazigovernmentofGermanytookallhisthingsaway,includinghispositionandhiscitizenship.EinsteinthensettleddownintheUnitedStates.In1939,Einstein,wholovedpeace—afraidofaworldinwhichonlyHitlerwouldhaveanatomicbomb(原子彈)—triedhardtopersuadePresidentFranklinD.RooseveltinafamouslettertohavetheUnitedStatesstarturaniumresearch.ThatGermany,afterall,hadnobomb,andthatthefirstbombwouldfallonJapan,couldnothavebeenexpected.Afterthewar,Einsteinneverstoppedworkingforpeaceandreducingthenumberofsoldiersintheworld.Althoughhewasn’tconnectedwithanyacceptedreligion(宗教),EinsteinfeltthattrustinapersonalGodwassospecialanideatobesuitabletotheGodatworkinthisuniverse,butheneverbelievedthattheuniversewasoneofchanceordisorder.Theuniversetohimwasoneofpurelawandorder.Heoncesaid,“Godmayknoweverything,butheisnothateful.”25Fromthepassageweknowthat.

A.hewouldhavestoppedhisscientificresearchB.hewouldhavewonanotherNobelPrizeforPeaceC.hewouldnothaveadvisedstartinguraniumresearchD.hewouldnothavemovedtotheU.S.A.答案：C解析：推理判斷題。由第二段第三句可知,愛因斯坦熱愛和平,當(dāng)時制造第一枚原子彈的目的是為了打擊納粹,維護(hù)世界和平。由此得知,假如他知道原子彈將落在日本,他決不會建議搞核試驗研究。27WhydidtheNazigovernmenttakeawayallEinstein’sthings?A.HevisitedEnglandandtheU.S.A.in1933.B.Heworkedhardforhumanrightsandprogress.C.HeadvisedtheU.S.A.tostarturaniumresearch.D.Thepassagedoesn’tmentionit.答案：D解析：推理判斷題。本文中只是提到了納粹政府奪走了他的一切,但并沒有寫出具體的原因。28Einsteinbelievedthateverythingintheuniverse.

A.waskeptinorderbyitsownlawB.hadnothingtodowitheachotherC.happenedinanirregularwayD.wasmadebythepersonalGod答案：A解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由最后一段的敘述可知,愛因斯坦堅信宇宙有其自己的規(guī)律,宇宙中的萬物是按宇宙本身的法則組合在一起的。CWhatmakesapersonascientist?Doeshehavewaysortoolsoflearningthataredifferentfromthoseofothers?Theansweris“no”.Itisn’tthetoolsascientistusesbuthowheusesthesetoolsthatmakeshimascientist.Youwillprobablyagreethatknowinghowtousepowerisimportanttoacarpenter(木匠).Youwillprobablyagree,too,thatknowinghowtoinvestigate(調(diào)查),howtodiscoverinformation,isimportanttoeveryone.Thescientist,however,goesonestepfurther;hemustbesurethathehasareasonableanswertohisquestionsandthathisanswerhegetstomanyquestionsisintoalargesetofideasabouthowtheworldworks.Thescientist’sknowledgemustbeexact.There’snoroomforhalfrightorrightjusthalfthetime.Hemustbeasnearlyrightastheconditionspermit.Whatworksunderonesetofconditionsatonetimemustworkunderthesameconditionsatothertimes.Iftheconditionsaredifferent,anychangesthescientistobservesinademonstration(實證)mustbeexplainedbythechangesintheconditions.Thisisonereasonwhyinvestigationsareimportantinscience.AlbertEinstein,whodevelopedtheTheoryofRelativity,arrivedatthistheorythroughmathematics.Theaccuracy(正確性)ofhismathematicswaslatertestedthroughinvestigation.Einstein’sideasprovedtobecorrect.Ascientistusesmanytoolsformeasurements.Thenthemeasurementsareusedtomakemathematicalcalculations(計算)thatmaytesthisinvestigations.29Whatmakesapersonascientistaccordingtothepassage?A.Thetoolsheuses.B.Hiswaysoflearning.C.Thewayheuseshistools.D.Thevarioustoolsheuses.答案：C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段的第四句“Itisn’t...buthowheuses...scientist.”可知C項正確。30Bysaying“...knowinghowtoinvestigate,howtodiscoverinformation,isimportanttoeveryone”,thewriterwantstoshow.

A.theimportanceofinformationB.thedifferencebetweenscientistsandordinarypeopleC.theimportanceofthinkingD.thedifferencebetweencarpentersandordinarypeople答案：C解析：推理判斷題。第一段中的“...knowinghowtoinvestigate(調(diào)查),howtodiscoverinformation,isimportanttoeveryone.”強(qiáng)調(diào)知道怎樣去調(diào)查,怎樣去獲取信息,是一種思考的過程,暗示思維的重要性。31Asound(合理的)scientifictheoryshouldbeonethat.

A.worksunderonesetofconditionsatalltimesB.leavesnoroomforimprovementC.doesn’tallowanychangeevenunderdifferentconditionsD.canbeusedformanypurposes答案：A解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第二段第四句“Whatworks...times.”可知。32Whatisthemainideaofthepassage?A.Scientistsaredifferentfromordinarypeopleinmanydifferentways.B.TheTheoryofRelativityisaveryimportanttheory.C.Exactnessisthecore(核心)ofscience.D.Exactnessandthewayofusingtoolsarethekeystomakingascientist.答案：D解析：主旨大意題。文章開篇點出討論的話題:“是什么造就了科學(xué)家?”,文章第一段主要講述合理利用工具的重要性,第二段主要說明準(zhǔn)確的重要性。故選D項。第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。Hypnotic(催眠的)Garden33.Checkthatyourheadisinlinewithyourspine(脊柱).Letyourfeetjustfallslightlyapart.Yourarmscanrestatyourside.Turnyourhandssothepalmsareslightlyfacingupwards,thesidesofyourhandsonthefloor.
