More than a hundred adults and kids gather for the Star Party on a cold evening, chattering excitedly as they stand in the dark on a Virginia hillside. The odd thing is, no one has turned on a flashlight, and no streetlights or house lights wink(闪烁) on around them.
These people have traveled to the countryside more than an hour from Washington, D. C., to get away from the glow of city lights. That's because they are attending a star party. Star parties are gatherings where professional and amateur astronomers set up their telescopes and invite people to come learn about the night sky. Getting away from light pollution, or artificial skylight from buildings for example, helps stargazers (看星星的人) see objects in the sky much better.
At this star party, Sean O'Brien of the National Air and Space Museum’s Einstein Planetarium starts off by asking the crowd to simply look up and take in all they can see. He points out plenty of things that can be seen without special equipment. Stars, satellites, and even the Andromeda galaxy(仙女座) can be found if you know where to look.
After that, several dozen astronomers offer close-up views. Each has focused their telescope on a different part of the sky. As kids take a look, the owner gives a mini-lesson.
O’Brien says you can have your own star party at home and learn a lot just by paying attention to what's happening up above. "Watch the sky as the seasons pass, and you will see that it changes," he says. "Or start with the moon. Notice when and where you are seeing it—maybe even in the early morning while you wait for the school bus. "
【小题1】What was it special about the Star Party ?
| A．It was organized by the local authority. |
| B．It was carried out without any lights. |
| C．It was so cold that people chatted to cheer up. |
| D．It was held in the town center of Virginia |
| A．a, c, d | B．a, d, e | C．b, d, e | D．c, d, e |
| A．you'd better escape from pollution and sunlight |
| B．you'd better follow Sean O'Brien's guidance |
| C．you'd better buy some advanced equipment |
| D．you'd better make use of your imagination |
| A．Roman is not built in a day. |
| B．No pains, no gains. |
| C．All roads lead to Roman. |
| D．Time and tide wait for no man. |

As you are students of English, it’s very possible that you’ll be interested in England. That’s where the language was first spoken. But England is often called by other names. This often confuses people and I wonder if you know what these names mean. So, now I would like to tell you about this matter of names. I believe that you have heard people use the names—England, Britain or Great Britain. Let’s see what each of these names means.
If you look at a map of Europe, you’ll see a group of islands--one larger island off the northwest coast, one smaller and many tiny ones. These make up what is called the British Isles. The largest island of the British Isles is Britain. It is also called Great Britain. The smaller island is Ireland.
Britain is divided into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England. But sometimes the word “England” is used instead of “Britain”. Why so?
In ancient times, what is Britain now used to be three different countries. People in these different countries spoke different languages. Over many years the three countries became one. England is the largest and richest of the three and it has the most people. So the English people take it for granted that their own name stands for the whole island.
There’s another thing that confuses people: sometimes you may hear people say “the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. That is the official name of the country. Northern Ireland is only one sixth of the island of Ireland. The rest of the island is an independent state, called the Republic of Ireland. So we have the names of “England”, “Britain”, “Great Britain”, and “the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. Now do you know what each of them means?
1.English was first spoken in ____.
A．Britain B．England C．Great Britain D．Ireland
2.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A．Wales is the richest of the three.
B．Scotland is the largest of the three.
C．Sometimes England is used instead of Britain.
D．Britain is the only name of the largest island of British Isles.
3.The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is _____.
A．part of Britain
B．part of British Isles
C．the official name of the whole country
D．the largest country of all mentioned in the passage
4.Which of the following is the best title?
A．Students of English
B．Different Names of England
C．Different Languages Spoken in England
D．The Republic of Ireland

科目：高中英语 来源：2011年山东省高一下学期期末考试英语题 题型：阅读理解
When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said” the phone”. Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual. Because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone. “The mobile saved my life,” says Crystal Johnstone. She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance(救护车) to her rescue.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch, Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at and time of day to ask where they are , where they are going, and how their last meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. Antonella Bramante in Rome says, “We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near——but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously ( 同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does. I wouldn’t know what to talk about). We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they’re space-walking. And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access(存取) the Internet, the biggest library on Earth.
1.How do you understand ‘Point 1 —The telephone creates the need to communicate,…’？
|
A．People don’t communicate without telephone. |
|
B．People communicate because of the creating of the telephone. |
|
C．People communicate more since telephone has been created. |
|
D．People communicate more because of more traffic. |
2.Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?
|
A．Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency. |
|
B．Mobile phones bring convenience as well little secret to people. |
|
C．Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged. |
|
D．Mobile phones are part of people’s life. |
3.Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life?
a. Point 1. b. Point2. c. Point3. d. Point 4. e. Point 5.
|
A．c, d |
B．a, e |
C．a, c |
D．b, e |
4.It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously through .
|
A．the TV screen |
B．a fax machine |
|
C．the phone line hooked up to the computer |
D．a microphone |
5.The best heading for the passage is .
|
A．Phone Power |
B．Kinds of Phone |
|
C．How to Use Phones |
D．Advantage of Phones |
