【题目】Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)
Unless we spend money to spot(认出,发现) and prevent asteroids(小行星)now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists.
Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids(流星体) that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.
Buy $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, they spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course.
Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: (1) How likely the event is; (2) How bad the consequences 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 don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple. ”
The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets(队,车队) of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? “The world has less fear from doomsday rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article.
【1】What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids?
A.They are heavenly bodies different in composition.B.They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.
C.There are more asteroids than meteoroids.D.Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.
【2】What do scientists say about the collision, of an asteroid with Earth?
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.It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.
【3】What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear 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 applicable.
【4】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 happen in our lifetime.
D.workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth.
【5】Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage?
A.Optimistic.B.Critical.C.Objective.D.Arbitrary(武断的)
【6】The best title for the passage is __________.
A.How will the world end?B.Asteroids and meteoroids in the sky.
C.Nuclear weapons on Earth.D.What if asteroids crash into Earth?

【题目】Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
A different kind of alarm clock
When Matty Sallin, 24, was studying art and technology at New York University, he got an interesting task for the final exam: Create something for the ordinary family. He decided to create an alarm clock.
“To get up in time, many people have to use an alarm clock every morning. But the sound of the clock is extremely noisy and unpleasant,” he says. So before he started to design the new clock; he asked different people what they’d like to wake up to in the morning, and lots of them said, “The smell of bacon(培根).”
So Sallin and his two classmates invented a new kind of alarm clock: a wooden box with a pig face and a digital clock that uses the smell of cooking bacon to wake people up. He explains, “There’s no danger of burning, because I built it carefully. It uses special light bulbs(灯泡) instead of fire for cooking and turns off automatically after ten minutes.” Just a few easy steps are required to set the “alarm”.
“What you do is to put a few pieces of bacon meat inside the box the night before, then you set the alarm,” says Sallin. “If you set the alarm for 8: 00, it will turn on at 7:50 and slow cook for ten minutes under the bulbs. Then the bulbs turn off and a fan blows the smell out through the nose of the pig.”
“So the pleasant smell of bacon will wake you up. There will be no more noisy alarms,” says Sallin. “Then you can open the door on the side and pull the bacon out and eat it.”
When Sallin was a kid, he spent a lot of time making drawings of inventions. “I wanted to make a lift in my back yard and a special tree house,” he says. “But I never really thought I’d become an inventor!”
Sallin got an A for his alarm clock and went on to invent other thing, but people continue to email him every day asking where they can buy his alarm clock. If he decides to produce and sell his special alarm clock, maybe he can build a successful business out of it.
【1】What was Matty Sallin?
______________________________________________________
【2】How many people worked together on the new alarm clock?
__________________________________________________________
【3】How long did it take to cook the bacon?
_________________________________________________________________
【4】Why are light bulbs used for cooking bacon instead of fire?
_______________________________________________________________________
【5】What’s special about Sallin’s alarm clock?
_________________ wakes people up instead of the loud alarm.
【6】What do you think of the new alarm clock?

【题目】 Music has brought James Blunt worldwide fame, but becoming a pop star hasn’t been an easy road for him.
Blunt was born into a family of soldiers in 1974. So it is no surprise that he himself joined the army as a soldier in 1996. Music wasn’t popular entertainment in the family house. His father considered all music to be unnecessary noise. “Like any parents, mine wanted me to have a secure job with a regular salary(薪水)and career prospects(前途), Blunt said in an interview with the BBC. “And the one job my father knew of —that he’d experienced himself—was the army, so he could help me in that direction.” In 1999, he was sent to Kosovo(科索沃)as a member of the peacekeeping force. Despite following in his father’s footsteps, music was James’ primary passion. The young officer took his guitar with him. Blunt explained to the Herald.-Times.” Wherever you are in the army, you take something to keep yourself amused. Some bring a pack of cards, some a football. I took a guitar.” His wartime experience inspired him to write the song No Bravery. Blunt couldn’t escape his love of music. He left the army in October 2002 and decided that it was time to replace guns with guitars. He flew to the US in September 2003. There he met Linda Perry, songwriter and produces, who helped him with the music. In 2005, Blunt released his first album. Back to Bedlam. It was a huge success that the album sold over 10 million copied worldwide and its single. You’re Beautiful, bit number one in over a dozen countries.
