2、 earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path (軌道) than the earth travels.If a comet isnt a star, what is it then?Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When sunshin

3、e melts (融化) the ice in the comet, great clouds of gas go trailing after it. These clouds, together with the dust, form a long tail.Many people perhaps have seen a comet. However no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few come close enough for us to see.A

4、n Englishman named Edmund Halley, who lived from 1656 to 1742, found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky. Some comets move out of our sight and never come back. Others keep coming back at regular times. A big comet that keeps coming back was named after Halley because he was t

5、he one who worked out when it would come back again. Maybe you have ever seen Halleys Comets because the last time it came close to the sun and the earth was in the year 1986.

8、。短文中還介紹了彗星的成因，它拖著的長尾巴是如何形成的以及著名的哈雷彗星名字的由來。1.D。“Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but”是判斷本題的根據。2.C。根據“is water frozen into pieces of ice and mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock.”這句話即能得出答案。3.D。由第五段的首句“Many people perhaps have seen a comet.”可知。4.C?！癝ome comets m

9、ove out of our sight and never come back. Others keep coming back at regular times.”一句是答案的出處。5.C。哈雷彗星每七十六年才能看到一次。再結合“the last time it came close to the sun and the earth was in the year 1986.”這句話的意思，即可得到答案。上面的五個問題我們都可以很容易的在原文找到對應的部分，這種題實際上是最不容易出錯誤的，因為只要你找到了對應句，即使有個別的單詞不能理解，也能夠答對，下面再來試一文章，看看你的準確率哦。Pa

10、ssage 3A farmer had a cow. He took very good care of this cow and one day when it was ill, he was very worried. He telephoned the vet.“Whats the problem?” The vet asked him when he arrived.“My cows ill,” the farmer said. “I dont know whats the matter with her. Shes lying down and wont eat. Shes maki

11、ng a strange noise.”The vet looked over the cow. Shes certainly ill, he said, and she needs to take some very strong medicine.He took a bottle out of his box, put two pills into his hand and said, Give her these. The pills should make her better.“How should I give them to her?” the farmer asked.The

12、vet gave him a tube (管子)and said, Put this tube in her mouth, then put the pills in the tube and blow. Thatll make it.The next day the vet came to the farm again. The farmer was sitting outside his house and looked more worried.“Hows your cow?” the vet asked.“No change,” the farmer said, “and Im fee

13、ling very strange myself.”“Oh?” the vet said, Why?“I did what you said,” the farmer answered. “I put the tube in the cows mouth and then put two pills down it.”“And?” the vet asked.“The cow blew first,” the farmer said.1.In the story, the vet must be _.A. the farmers friend B. a milk factoryC. a hos

14、pital for cows D. a doctor for animals2.The farmer asked the vet for help when his cow _A. couldnt lie down B. didnt eat the pillsC. couldnt make any noise D. was ill3.What medicine did the vet give the farmer?A.

16、armer waited for the vet outside his house the next day. Passage 2【答案與解析】這篇令人忍俊不禁的幽默的主要內容是：一個農夫的牛病倒了。獸醫(yī)給了他一些藥和一根管子，并告訴他怎么樣用這根管子給牛喂藥。第二天，獸醫(yī)再次到農場時發(fā)現(xiàn)那位農夫坐在家門口，一臉的焦慮不安。原來他的牛病情并沒有好轉。他說自己按照獸醫(yī)的囑咐做了，可當他將管子插入牛的嘴里，并放進兩粒藥丸，正想吹氣時，牛卻先吹了一口氣。1.D。根據短文內容，很容易推測出該詞的漢語意思是“獸醫(yī)”。答案當然是D。2.D。由“Shes lying down and wont eat.

17、Shes making a strange noise.”可以排除A和B。C顯然不對。3.C?！癏e took a bottle out of his box, put two pills into his hand”一句是答案的出處。4.B。 由“How should I give them to her?”這句話可知。5.A.根據短文最后一句話，不難想象，沒等農夫吹氣，牛先吹了一口氣，將藥丸吹到了農夫的嘴里。做這樣類型的題有一種小技巧，你可以在回答問題的時候同時把答案的相應部分用筆標出來，這樣的好處有兩個，一是提高準確率，二是當你覺得哪個答案有可能有誤差的時候可以只針對那句話和它的上下文來

20、n rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 meters, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the mens basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. There was also some snow on the balloon, and that made it very heavy. It began to go down towards t

21、he ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling; so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake below and made a black hole in t

26、句的1908年可知A項有誤。另外，這三個人打算從倫敦出發(fā)乘氣球作長距離旅行，由于天氣狀況不好，只好在波蘭(Poland)著陸。行程達1,797公里，將近1,800公里。2.A. 根據“This could hold water. Or it could be empty. So they were able to change its weight.”可知，金屬盒里盛的水是并非是飲用水，而是用來改變氣球重量的。文中還說他們同時也帶了幾袋沙子來調節(jié)氣球的重量。3.B.根據“It went up to 3,000 meters, and the air was very cold.”或地理常識可斷

27、定B為最佳答案。4.A.如果氣球降落在湖上或海上，那將是很危險的，聯(lián)系“They came down in Poland heavily but safely”，可知A是最佳答案。5.D.答案源自最后一段中的“They were so cold that they decided to land.”一句。Passage 6If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always.
