2、WhenwillthedisabledUSspysatellitecrashtoEarth?

A、SometimeinnextMarch.

PerhapsinnextFebruary.

C、OnthefirstdayofFebruary.

D、MaybeinearlyMarch.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：題干提問的是失控的衛(wèi)星撞擊地球的時間，原文中提到了inlate

FebruaryorearlyMarch,題目中的disabled是原文□out-of-control的同義轉(zhuǎn)換，

因此可以判斷選項D是正確答案。

3、McDowellsaysthatmostoftheheaviestuncontrolleddebriscrashingto

Earth.

A^aresatelliteswhichhavedeorbited

B、arcthendiscardedinthreeweeks

C、comefromrocketlaunchings

D、stillhavepowertouse

標準答案：C

知識點解析：題目中most和原文的moslly意義一致。文章中提到的那些重量在兩

公噸以上的殘骸大多是被遺棄的不同級別的火箭，因此殘骸是來自于火箭發(fā)射，故

正確答案是C。

4、WhydoesJohndroesaythatthecomingcrashofthespysatelliteisdifferent?

A、Itwillbringverylittledamage.

B、Itmayreleasemuchtoxicgas.

C、Itmaylandinapopulatedarea.

D、Ithasbotheredthepresident.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：本段是Johndroe對于這次衛(wèi)星墜毀事件的分析，即過去三十多年

來，殘骸墜毀很多，但幾乎沒有造成什么損毀和人員傷亡。最后一句則提到此次墜

毀事件的不同之處：此次可能會產(chǎn)生有毒氣體的釋放，因此正確答案是B。

5、HowwouldMcDowellliketheideathatpeopleshouldbewarnedofthecoming

crash?

A、Itisagoodidea.

B、Itisreasonable.

C、Itisuseless.

D^Itisunnecessary.

標準答案：D

知識點解析:題目中bewarnedofthecomingcrash是原文中g(shù)etalarmedaboutitM

同義轉(zhuǎn)換。文中McDowell分析了這顆衛(wèi)星墜入居民區(qū)的概率，他認為概率很小沒

必要警告，因此正確答案是D。

6、WhohadpredictedthecrashofUSA193beforethegovernmentuncoveredit?

A^Amateurskywatchers.

B、JonathanMcDowell.

CxGordonJohndroe.

D、Ground-basedcontrollers.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：該句提到也們預(yù)測了這個春天衛(wèi)星的最終墜毀，句中的Ihey指的就

是前面一句中的業(yè)余的天空觀測愛好者，即amateurskywatchers,因此正確答案是

Ao

7、WhatdoweknowaboutthesatelliteUSA193?

A、Itisfiveorsixmeterslong.

B、Itisofthesameshapeofasmallvan.

C>ItisverylikelytolandinAmerica.

D、Itismorethan70tonnes.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：本段描述了USA193號衛(wèi)星的技術(shù)參數(shù)，先后介紹了衛(wèi)星的尺寸、

高度和運行區(qū)間。文中說的是衛(wèi)星的大小與微型客車相當，而非形狀，該段倒數(shù)第

2句提到殘骸掉落到美國的概率是2%,因此可以先后排除其他選項而選擇A。

8、Whichpartofthedyingsatellitecouldsurviveatmosphericre-entry?

A、TheAluminumparts.

B、Thepiupellaiilcunlaiiiei.

C^Theouterlayers.

D、The250-kilogramsteelfueltank.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：題目問衛(wèi)星在墜向地球的過程中哪些部件會留存下來。原文提到，鋁

件和外層都會燃燒掉。燃料箱等比較重的殘骸可能會剩下，因此可以選擇及

9、AccordingtoMcDowell,thepropellantofUSA193satellitecouldloseitstoxicity

whenitis.

標準答案：dispersedintheatmosphere

知識點解析：定位原文提到，McDowell說這枚衛(wèi)星的燃料在接近時是有毒性的，

但是當在空氣中擴散開時就沒有危險性了。題目中的loseitstoxicity是對原文“失

去毒性”的意思的概括，因此正確答案是dispersedintheatmosphereo

10^ToprotecttheISS,theUSSpaceSurveillanceNetworkshouldtrytokeepit

from.

標準答案：debris

知識點解析：由題目中的from表明，本空應(yīng)填一名詞或動名詞。本段中第2句中

提到了國際空間站，最后一句提到了美國太空監(jiān)測網(wǎng)對ISS的關(guān)注點是保護它遠離

殘骸而不是要擔(dān)心它自己會變成殘骸，即防止它受到太空殘骸的撞擊，因此正確答

案是debriso

11、ThedeadandfallingUSspysatelliteremindspeoplethatNROisinbignow.

標準答案：trouble

知識點解析：本段第1句中提到，這顆正在墜落的衛(wèi)星起到了一個提醒作用，即提

醒人們注意到NRO的日子有點不好過。末句又提到，它提醒人們現(xiàn)在NRO遇到

了多大的麻煩，因此正確答案是troubleo

C、thearchitecturalstyleoftheolderbankissuperiortothatofthemodernbank

D、prejudicemakestheoldergenerationthinkthatthemodernbankisunreliable

B、Theyoungergenerationvaluesmoneymorethantheoldergeneration.

C、Bothgenerationsrelyontheimaginativepowerofbankerstomakemoney.

D^Totheformermoneyisarealcommoditybuttothelatterthemeansofproducing

moremoney.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：細節(jié)題。第三段第一句指出對于父親那一代人來說錢是可以帶在身

上，可能會被偷走的實物，后面則表明現(xiàn)在錢已經(jīng)不再是具體的實物了，是創(chuàng)造性

的想象的產(chǎn)物。文中主要是體現(xiàn)老一代人和現(xiàn)代人對于銀行和錢的概念不同，并沒

有指出誰比誰好，因此A選項和B選項不正確；C選項指的現(xiàn)代人，并不是老一

代人，因此不正確。D選項指出了兩代人的不同觀念，是正確答案。

62Theword"tangible”(Line2,Para.4)referstosomething.

A、thatisprecious

thatisusable

C^thatcanbetouched

D、thatcanbereproduced

標準答案：C

知識點解析：猜測詞匯題。前文指出對于老一代人來說錢是實物。而第四段介紹的

是現(xiàn)代人的不同觀念,其中“…moneyasatangiblecommodityhaslargelybeen

replacedbycredit.”指出錢被信用所取代，那么我們判斷老一代人認為的錢是與現(xiàn)

代人的信用意思相反的，信用是看不見摸不著的東西，那么錢就是看得見摸得著的

實物，因此我們可以判斷出“tangible”的意思是“有形的"，選擇C答案，可以摸得

到的。
