题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Unlike Shenzhou-V, a little more than a year ago (in October, 2003), the next flight will see two astronauts fly in space for five days. Their capsule (太空舱) is designed to be capable（能够）of orbiting（绕轨道运行） for a whole week, the spokesperson said. “For the first time, astronauts will enter and live in the orbital module（舱） of the spacecraft to do scientific experiments,” said a statement from CAST. CAST did not say what those experiments will be.

In Shenzhou-VI, scientists have changed the spacecraft’s configuration (构形) to reduce its weight, and tried to improve the performance of on-board equipment. They have also worked to make sure of the energy supply of the spacecraft and further improve its safety. So far, scientists have worked out ways to solve problems on environmental control and life support. Shenzhou-VI will be sent into orbit atop（在……顶上） a Long March 2F rocket.

Meanwhile, a model of the Chang’e-1 satellite is expected to be sent to orbit the moon in two years. The satellite, part of the three-stage programme, would be followed by the landing of an unmanned vehicle on the moon in the second stage by 2010 and collecting samples（样品） of lunar soil by 2020 in the final stage, according to Sun Laiyan, director of the China National Space Administration.

The "Thumbs-Up"

　　While Western culture has become used to the thumbs-up as a good signal(probably coming from World War II pilots using the signal to show that they were "good to go" with ground crews), there are cultures where a thumbs-up may land you in trouble．In West Africa, as well as Greece, Italy and Middle East, the thumbs-up is pretty much the biggest insult(侮辱)．

　　Rather more interesting is a thumbs-up in Germany and in parts of Japan－they just see it as the hand signal for the number one．

The "A-OK"

　　This sign is mainly used by divers(潜水员)to mean "OK"(to prevent being confused with the thumbs-up sign, which means "rise")．Basically the meaning comes out as "great", or "completely fine"．However, in a few countries in Europe, people may think you抮e telling them that you think they抮e a 'zero挘?/P>

The "V Sign"

　　The sign comes in two formats：one with the palm(手掌)faced outwards, and one with the palm inwards．In America they mean the same thing －"victory"．However, if the outside of your hand is facing your target(目标), you抮e giving somebody a long-built insult in Great Britain and many English-speaking countries such as Australia, Ireland and New Zealand．Winston Churchill famously used the "incorrect" version of the V sign during the early years of the war, turning the outside inside later．The V sign is also considered rude in Italy．

The "Corna"

　　The corna hand gesture has most recently been adopted by fans of rock and heavy metal music．Nowadays many Americans use the gesture simply to mean "rock on", or in support of the University of Texas in Austin(known as the "Hook抏m Horns")．Today it is still popular in Spain, Brazil and Slovakia．Historically, however, the symbol possibly dates back to Ancient Greece．

(1)

Which of the following signs doesn抰 have an insulting meaning?
[　　]
A．	The "Thumbs-Up"．
B．	The "A-OK"．
C．	The "V Sign"．
D．	The "Corna"．

(2)

What information can we get from the passage?
[　　]
A．	The "V Sign" was first used by Winston Churchill．
B．	Italians often use the "Thumbs-Up" to praise others．
C．	You are most likely to see the "Corna" in a heavy metal music concert．
D．	The "A-OK" and the "Thumbs-Up" have the same meaning to divers．

(3)

If you travel abroad, you 抎 better not use the "V Sign" in ________．
[　　]
A．	Greece or Italy
B．	Germany or Japan
C．	Ireland or Italy
D．	Spain or Brazil

　　Ants have a reputation for strength, organization and teamwork．But researchers have now discovered that a key secret to the success of ants is their ability to identify the importance of age in the work place．

　　A study of Gentral American leaf-cutter ants has shown that the younger and stronger members are give the toughest job of cutting the rough the leaves they harvest．Their sharp young teeth do this job effectively, but as they get older their teeth become relatively worn and blunt．

　　But rather than being retired or abandoned by the group, the ageing ants are given a new role more suited to their physical abilities．They become carriers and transport the leaves back to the kingdom where they are harvested for food．

　　The findings by researchers from the University of Oregon and the Oregong State University support previous research show in the survival of a leaf-cutter kingdom depends on the efficiency(效率)of is workers．

　　“Cutting leaves is hard work, ”said Dr．Robert Schofield, who led the research team．“Much of the cutting is done with a V-shaped blade(刀片)between teeth on their jaws．This blade starts out as sharp as the sharpest razor blade that humans have developed．”But over rime the teeth become blunter and the cutting job slows down．The team estimated that, because of this age-related wear, a colony(蚁群)spent twice the energy cutting leaves than it would if all the ants had sharp blades．Its findings support the idea that wear and break can be significant problems for insects as well as larger animals．

　　Like humans, leaf-cutter ant recognize that older members of the group can still make a worthwhile contribution to society．“This stud shows an advantage of social living that we are familiar with, ”said Dr．Schofield．

C．	They have to leave and live on themselves．
D．	They are given a new worthwhile job．

(4)
