本文是一篇以介绍一种“半人半兽”的生物Yeti为主要内容的说明文。主要介绍了其特征、居住地以及关于它的传说故事。1、2、10、11、12、14、20题偏重于考查对文章内容的理解;3、6、8、9、18、19题考查词汇(包括词组、动词、名词)的辨析;4、7、13、15、16、17题要求根据文章内容判断适当的副词(短语);第5题考查连词。
【小题1】后文叙述的是关于Yeti的传说故事,故选story。
【小题2】从1920年开始被发现,至今应有“许多年了”。
【小题3】当地人称这种生物为Yeti,肯定是“知道”它以及关于它的事。
【小题4】“抓住”比“知道”更进一步,用even表示强调程度的加深。
【小题5】“曾经抓到”与“没有证据”之间为转折关系,即“虽然……但是……”。
【小题6】第二段讲述了关于Yeti的一个传说故事,后文中将有新的介绍。故可知“故事”在“继续”。
【小题7】Shipton相信这些“脚印”不简简单单为“猴子”或“熊”的脚印,故选simply。
【小题8】felt与believed是并列的谓语动词,意为“感觉到”。
【小题9】Shipton感觉这种动物可能真的存在。
【小题10】人们发现的仅仅是“更多”的脚印。
【小题11】许我人相信这些脚印只不过是那些普通动物(比如猴子或熊)留下的。
【小题12】“普通的脚印”看起来不“普通”,是因为其在雪里融化而变“大”了。
【小题13】前文介绍了一些人脚印的判断,而后文是一位俄国科学家的新发现。故判断出两部分之间应用 however转折。
【小题14】real意为“真的,存在的”。
【小题15】前面提到过,当地人的发现和传说没有证据可依,这一次“又”是如此。
【小题16】没有证据被实际记载。
【小题17】take … seriously意为“把……当回事(严肃认真对待)”。
【小题18】succeed in doing意为“成功地做成某事”。
【小题19】face a problem意为“面临问题”。
【小题20】前文提到这种生物“半人半兽”,那么如果人们真的抓住一个,将面临的问题是:把它放到动物园(当它是动物?)还是在旅馆里给它一个房间(当它是人?)

The run-up to the launch of China's first lunar orbiter at the end of this month has caught the country's imagination, with more than two thirds of the nation hoping to see the launch live on TV, according to a survey.
According to the survey by China Youth Daily and www.qq.com, almost the entire nation hopes to catch images of the event at some point, with 99 percent of the 10358 respondents saying they expected to witness the satellite launch and 68.9 percent said they were certain to watch the live broadcast of the launch. On www.qq.com and www.sina.com, two popular web portals in the country, internet users have contributed some 2,000 poems and 5000 drawings on the theme of Chang'e I.
"The satellite launch means much more than just saying 'hello' to the moon. Maybe in the future we could also send some people to accompany sister 'Chang'e'," said a college student in the survey.
Remarkably, many people expect to visit the moon one day, with 93.4 percent of respondents saying they expected to do so.
Chang'e I is named after Chang'e, a famous character from Chinese mythology. She ascended from earth to live on the moon as a celestial being after drinking an elixir.
There is also another connection between the moon and China. In the 1970s, a crater on the moon was named after a Chinese stargazer, Wan Hu, who is said to be the first astronaut in human history.
Legend says about 600 years ago, around the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Wan Hu, a local government official, tried to fly into space with the help of a chair, two big kites and 47 self-made gunpowder-filled rockets. According to the legend after the rockets were lit there was a huge bang and lots of smoke. When the smoke cleared Wan was nowhere to be found.
China's first astronaut flew into space in 2003 with the launch of the Chinese-made spaceship Shenzhou V. China became the third country, after the Soviet Union and the United States, to carry out manned space missions.
Which is true according to the passage?
A. According to a survey, two thirds of the nation are hoping to see the launch live on TV,
B. The internet users have drawn some 5000 pictures of ‘Chang’e’.
C. Wan Hu, a Chinese stargazer(n. 看星星的人,占星师,天文学家) , was dead after the huge bang and a lot of smoke.
D. China’s first astronaut flew into space in 2003 in the spaceship Shenzhou VI.
What’s the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 5?
A. a kind of medicine for long life. B. a kind of medicine to make you light enough to fly in the air.
C. a kind of wine D. a kind of alcohol.
Why was Wan Hu said to be the first astronaut in human history?
A. Because a crater on the moon was named after his name.
B. Because he was the first to go to the moon in his own “spaceship”.
C. Because of his courage for scientific experiment to the moon.
D. Because he made the first rocket in human history.
