In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers(探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon
was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,”they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don't even use your inner space?”H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “channel”, a tunnel(隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.
But what about underground cities? Japan's Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”.The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome(太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells' “moon people” would agree. Would you?
1.The explorers in H.G. Wells' story were surprised to find that the “moon people” ________.
A.knew so much about the earth
B.understood their language
C.lived in so many underground cities
D.were ahead of them in space technology
2.What does the underlined word “it” (paragraph 2) refer to?
A.Discovering the moon's inner space.
B.Using the earth's inner space.
C.Meeting the “moon people” again.
D.Travelling to outer space.
3.What sort of underground systems are already here with us?
A.Offices, shopping areas, power stations.
B.Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.
C.Gardens, car parks, power stations.
D.Tunnels, gardens, offices.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Alice Cities —Cities of the Future
B.Space Travel with H.G. Wells
C.Enjoy Living Underground
D.Building Down, Not Up

Albert Szent-Gyorgyi was born in Budapest on September 16, 1893. In 1911 he entered his uncle’s laboratory where he studied until the outbreak of World War One, when he joined the army. He served on the Italian and Russian fronts, and he was permitted to leave the army in 1917 after being wounded in action. He completed his studies in Budapest before he went to Hamburg for a two-year course in physical chemistry. In 1920 he became an assistant at a university in Leiden, the Netherlands and from 1922 to 1926 he worked with H. J. Hamburger at the Physiology Institute, Groningen, the Netherlands.
In 1926, Szent-Gyorgyi was ready to end his own life after an embarrassing problem in his career. The scientist, thirty-two, had written a paper and handed it to his boss for approval to publish. His boss threw it in the dustbin. Concluding his life was a failure, the young researcher quit. Unable to support his wife and child, he sent them home to her parents. His final wish was to attend one last scientific meeting, to be among scientists, to have one last good time. So he went to the 1926 International Physiological Society Congress in Sweden.
Sitting in the audience, lost in self-pity, Szent-Gyorgyi listened to the president of the society, Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins, refer to the fine work of a researcher: Szent-Gyorgyi! After the speech, collecting his courage, he introduced himself to Hopkins. The great man invited the young scientist to Cambridge to do further work.
Szent-Gyorgyi’s life changed. He discovered the oxidation-preventing (防氧化的) action of vitamin C. He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1937. He accounted for his success by saying that discovery is seeing what everyone else has seen but thinking what nobody else has thought.
【小题1】Which of the following is the correct order of the events relevant to Szent-Gyorgyi?
a. finished his studies in Budapest
b. served during World War One
c. worked with Hopkins
d. studied in Hamburg
| A．b, c, a, d | B．b, a, d, c | C．a, c, d, b | D．a, b, d, c |
| A．His pride was hurt by his boss. |
| B．He was not satisfied with his paper. |
| C．He couldn’t support his family. |
| D．His boss stopped him attending a conference. |
| A．cause and effect |
| B．comparison and contrast |
| C．time and events |
| D．definition and classification |
