    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    The Internet, mobile phones and Ipads are part of our lives now. Technology is greatly affecting all ways of our lives, from the ways we work to the ways we play. And it even causes a number of social problems such as cloning humans.

    　　We have had lots of technology and it has changed our lives a lot. There is no doubt that humans will continue to use more and more technology. Here are some examples of modern technology that will change our ideas and will affect our lives greatly.

    　　Global positioning system (GPS) (全球定位系统)

    　　It’s a system that uses radio signals from satellites to show exact(精确地) information. It tells you where the user is on the earth in all weather conditions. It’s made up of three parts: satellites, control equipments (设备) on land and receivers.

    　　Space Technology

    　　Russian and American scientists have worked together for the international Space Station (ISS) for a long time. They hope the ISS will provide a long-lasting lab. Such a lab will bring humans limitless(无限的) advantages. It’s even hoped that one day space technology will take humans to their new houses in space.

    Underwater Robot

    Hercules is a kind of underwater robot with some high technology equipments. It will be used to search for ancient ships which were destroyed into the deep sea during their journey long ago.

    The world is changing so quickly that it’s hard for us to catch up with all the new inventions because they seem to come out every month. It’s important for us to learn about new technology and the role that it plays in our lives. So we should be willing to accept modern technology, or we will fall behind the times.

    1.______ can tell you where the user is on the earth exactly.

    A．Satellites                              B．Receivers

    C．Global Positioning System                 D．Underwater Robot

    2.According to the passage, which is NOT true about the ISS?

    A．It has carried people to other planets.

    B．It will provide a long-lasting lab for us.

    C．Russian and American are working for it.

    D．Humans will get a lot of advantages from it.

    3.Hercules is used to ______.

    A．save lives in the sea                     B．take picture in the sea

    C．repair the broken ships                   D．look for the ancient ships in the sea

    4.From the passage, we know that ______.

    A．the use of GPS is affected by the weather conditions

    B．it’s very important for us to learn about new technology

    C．it’s easy for us to catch up with all the new inventions

    D．technology brings us many advantages such as cloning humans

    5.What is the purpose of the passage?

    A．To help us study some new technology.

    B．To tell us technology is changing the world.

    C．To help solve the problems that technology causes.

    D．To remind us the advantages of technology are limitless.

    阅读理解

    　　In the summer of 1978 an English man named Steven was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange．Some of his wheat was lying on the ground．The flattened wheat formed(形成)a circle about six meters across．Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat．

    　　Three years later a farmer who lived nearby discovered almost the same circles in one of his fields．These circles were larger－nearly 15 meters across．That same year , another English farmer discovered three circles of flattened wheat on his land－one large circle between two small circles．During the following years, farmers in England found circles in their fields more and more often．

    　　The circles are called “crop circles” because they usually appear in fields of wheat or corn．The wheat in the circles lies on the ground but is never broken; it keeps on growing, and the farmers can later harvest it．Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night．They appear only in the months from May to September．What causes the crop circles?

    　　At first, people thought that some kids were making them as a joke, or that farmers were making them to attract tourists．(In fact, in 1991, two men said they made the circles themselves, but many scientists don't believe them．)People tried to copy them：They tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found．They couldn't do it．They couldn't enter a field of wheat without leaving tracks, and they couldn't flatten the wheat without breaking it．

    　　Several times people reported seeing stranger objects near the fields where crop circles later appeared．Many people believe that these crop circles are the messages sent by living things from outer space(外层空间)or the marks left by their spaceships．

    　　Scientists who have studied the crop circles try to find out what causes them．In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared．They had all the latest high-tech equipment(最新高科技设备)．The equipment－worth 1.8 million dollars－got nothing．But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, crop circles formed in the field behind them, which were quite different from the others．The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything．

    　　When Steven discovered the crop circles on his land in 1978, he said, “It was just like something that had landed in the field from the air and gone back up again．I don't know what to make of these things．”

    　　Crop circles have appeared in England, Japan, the United States and Russia．Experts from all over the world have studied them, and they say what Steven said：They don't know what to make of these things．

    (1)
