    Houston, Texas (June 8. 2002)–in 2004, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) will send two robots to separate places of Mars to seek out past or present signs of water. It is an exciting idea to send two robots driving over very different places of Mars at the same time, to be able to see what is on the other side of the hill.
    Last month, NASA announced it was sending one robot to Mars, but after two weeks, it decided there was enough money for two. The robots will be sent up within two weeks of each other in May and June of 2003 from Kennedy Space Center. If all goes well, the two spacecraft will touch down on Mars, after a seven-and –a-half-month space flight, on January 2 and 20, 2004.
    The robots, each weighing 150 kilograms, can cover 100 meters per day. They are designed to be able to examine the mineral content of the soil, and their special camera will take pictures of the lands and hills. Although they will be under control from the earth, the robots are able to move more freely compared to those sent up before them.
    The actual landing points have not been determined yet, but the scientists say it will be in areas where they hope to find water.
    49.According to the news report, scientists plan to send robots up to Mars to _____.
    A.find out whether there is water on Mars   B.see if robots can find minerals there  
    C.test how fast robots can drive there                 D.prove that robots can work on Mars
    50.How long in between will the two robots be sent to Mars?
    A.1 year       B. 7.5 months                  C. 2 months       D. 2 weeks
    51. One of the important jobs for the robots on Mars is to _______.
    A.study the soil                                     B. walk everywhere
    C.test the new camera                                D. find a suitable landing point
    52. We can infer from the last sentence that scientists ________.
    A. have changed the landing points many times  B. hope to land the robots on the surface of water
    C. are still working on the plan                      D. know where they can find water

    Towards the end of Middle English, a sudden change in pronunciation started, with vowels being pronounced shorter and shorter. From the 16th century the British had contact with people from around the world. This means that many new words and phrases entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Spelling and grammar became fixed and the dialect （方言）of London became the standard. In 1604, the first English dictionary was published.
    The numbers of words in Early Modern English and Late Modern English differ. Late Modern English has a lot more words because of two main factors: firstly, the Industrial Revolution created a need for new words; secondly, the British Empire covered one quarter of the earth’s surface, and the English language took in foreign words from many countries.
    From around 1600, the English colonization(殖民地化)of North America resulted in the creation of American English. Some English pronunciation and words froze when they reached America. In some ways, American English is more like the English of Shakespeare than modern British English. Some expressions that the British call “ Americanisms” are in fact original （原先的）British expressions that were preserved (保存) in the colonies but were lost in Britain. Spanish also had an influence on American English, with words like canyon, ranch, stampede and vigilante being examples of Spanish words that entered English. French words and West African words also influenced American English.
    Today, American English is the most influential(有影响力的). But there are many other kinds of English around the world, including Australian English, New Zealand English, Canadian English, South African English , Indian English and Caribbean English. They have differences.
    【小题1】What can we know from Paragraph 1?

    A．The dialect of London became the standard in the year 1604.
    B．Vowels were pronounced longer towards the end of Middle English
    C．The first English dictionary was published in the early 17th century.
    D．Many new words entered English because many people moved to Britain.
    【小题2】From Paragraph 2, we know that the Industrial Revolution __________.
    A．required spelling and grammar to be fixed
    B．required a greater number of English words
    C．caused many old English words to be useless
    D．led to the English colonization of North America.
    【小题3】The underlined word “froze” in Paragraph 3 shows that some English words in America___________.
    A．became longer B．greatly changed
    C．a little changedD．stayed as they were
    【小题4】What will the paragraph following this passage most probably discuss?
    A．The development of Modern English
    B．How the English vocabulary became larger
    C．Differences among the different kinds of English
    D．Differences between Middle English and Modern English

    第三部分：阅读理解 (共15小题；每小题2分，共30分)

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

    Who decides how English is spoken around the world? Do teachers in the colleges and schools? What about those who write dictionaries or books? Do they decide what is good and what is bad English? Or do governments decide when a language will change? Probably you have thought about this question once or twice before. The answer is that none of these people decide how English will be spoken. Believe it or not, many of the biggest changes in how English is spoken have come from common people in the streets. And one of the most important places where English has changed is on the playground! These playground can be any place where young people meet, such as a sports field or a beach. For example, black kids invented many new words in American English as they played basketball or music. Often words used by black kids in the big cities become popular with other kids many years later. Another popular sport, baseball, has also given many words and expressions to American English. On the beaches of southern California, teenagers invented words to describe how they felt when they surfed. These words found their way into the high schools and then to other places. Similar changes in English happened among young people in Ireland and Australia. Children from one group would find ways to play with children of another group more easily. Often they made new words just to develop an identity different from their parents.

    56. Who decides how English is spoken?

    A. Governments        B. Teachers       C. Ordinary people    D. Black kids

    57. According to the passage many English words come from ______.

    A. everyday life        B. textbooks       C. dictionaries        D. baseballs

    B. because they try to beat their teachers.    

    C. because they are asked to do so.

    D. because they want to feel different from their parents

    My house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also made out of software.

    If you come to visit, you’ll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN （个人身份号码）to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it’s dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it plays it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.

    Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.

    The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.

    I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have the systems that I’ve put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I’ve put in today.

    I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, “How will I live without them?”

    1.What does the passage mainly discuss?

    A．How to develop a new system.

    B．The function of the PIN.

    C．A home for the future.

    D．Easy life in the future.

    2.What’s the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth paragraph?

    A．To let readers know why his ideas are new.

    B．To let readers know how special his house is.

    C．To explain the importance of the PIN and the console.

    D．To explain more easily what the functions of the PIN and the console are.

    3.The writer’s new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because _____.

    A．it has been controlled by computers

    B．you can make a telephone call anywhere

    C．it has your favorite music following you

    D．the writer is able to change his new idea into practice

    4.What is the writer most likely to be according to the passage?

    A．An IT expert.

    B．A famous doctor.

    C．An idealist

    D．An experienced teacher.

    5.What can’t be done in the writer’s new house?

    A．turns on the lights

    B．play music

    C．get a telephone call

    D．go swimming
