A
David found that he was a bit fat these days. He bought an exercise machine so that he could take some exercise and try to lose some weight (减肥).
At first, he put it in the basement (地下室), but he did not use it often. He seldom (很少) went into the basement.
Next, he moved it into his bedroom. But he still didn’t use it very often. That’s because he would only go into the bedroom when it was time for him to go to sleep.
Finally, he moved it into the living room. He put the machine next to the window. His wife thought maybe this would finally work and he could exercise and look outside at the beautiful garden at the same time.
After a week, his wife asked David how his exercise was going. He said, “Well, yes, I do a little more exercise these days. Every time I want to open the window, I have to walk around the exercise machine.”

What is the sky? How high is it? What colour is it? What birds can live above it? These questions are difficult to answer, aren’t they? In fact, the sky has no colour. Then why does the sky look blue?
We know that there is air around the world. When planes fly, they need air to lift their wings (翅膀). Planes can’t fly very high. That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher. The same will happen to us if we go higher enough. If we go up about 1,200 kilometers from the earth, we’ll find no air there. Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane. But they cannot fly or live without air.
Looking up above us, you will see the blue sky with white clouds. It is usually light blue. The colour would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain. And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun. Sometimes the sky doesn’t look blue. When the sun rises and falls, you will see red, orange, and other colours in the sky. Such are the most beautiful moments of the day.
Who can see the colours of the sky high above the earth? The astronauts! They can see those beautiful colours of the sky from the outer space. However, before flying into outer space, they sit in a spaceship high above the earth, and there is no air at all. The sky would be that dark and its colour would be black.
Now you may understand that we see colours because the air scatters (使散射) the sunlight. Light travels through the air. Without air, there would be no light or colours.
根据语篇内容,选择最佳选项。
41. Why can’t plane fly as high as possible?
A. Because the sky is blue.
B. Because the wings are heavier.
C. Because the air becomes thinner.
42. What will you see when you stand on the top of a high mountain?
A. More air. B. Fewer clouds. C. Redder skies.
43. When might we see many colours in the sky during the day in summer?
A. At around 1:00 am. B. At around 3:00 am. C. At around 7:00 pm.
44. Which of the following is the main reason we see colour?
A. The air. B. The sky C. The clouds.
45. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. How to live above the sky.
B. How to know the height of the sky.
C. The reason why we can see the colours of the sky.
【答案】41. C 42. B 43. C 44. A 45. C

David found that he was a bit fat these days. He bought an exercise machine so that he could take some exercise and try to lose some weight (减肥).
At first, he put it in the basement (地下室), but he did not use it often. He seldom (很少) went into the basement.
Next, he moved it into his bedroom. But he still didn’t use it very often. That’s because he would only go into the bedroom when it was time for him to go to sleep.
Finally, he moved it into the living room. He put the machine next to the window. His wife thought maybe this would finally work and he could exercise and look outside at the beautiful garden at the same time.
After a week, his wife asked David how his exercise was going. He said, “Well, yes, I do a little more exercise these days. Every time I want to open the window, I have to walk around the exercise machine.”

Can dolphins (海豚) talk? Maybe they can’t talk with words, but they talk with sounds. They show their feelings with sounds.
Dolphins travel in groups. We call a group of fish “a school”. They don’t study, but they travel together. Dolphins are mammals (哺乳动物), not fish, but they swim together like fish in a school.
Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school. They give information. They tell when they are happy, sad or afraid. They say “welcome” when a dolphin comes back to the school. They talk when they play.
They make some sounds above water. They make many more sounds under water. People cannot hear these sounds because they are very, very high. Scientists make tapes of the sounds and study them.
Sometimes people catch dolphins for a large aquarium (水族宫). People can watch dolphins in a show. Dolphins don’t like to be away from their school in an aquarium. They are sad and lonely.
There are many stories about dolphins. They help people. Sometimes they save somebody’s life. Dolphins’ meat is good, but people do not like to kill them. They say that dolphins bring good luck. Many people believe this.

What is the sky? How high is it? What colour is it? What birds can live above it? These questions are difficult to answer, aren’t they? In fact, the sky has no colour. Then why does the sky look blue?
We know that there is air around the world. When planes fly, they need air to lift their wings (翅膀). Planes can’t fly very high. That is because the air gets thinner when they go higher. The same will happen to us if we go higher enough. If we go up about 1,200 kilometers from the earth, we’ll find no air there. Some birds can fly into the sky as high as a plane. But they cannot fly or live without air.
Looking up above us, you will see the blue sky with white clouds. It is usually light blue. The colour would be bluer when you see on the top of a high mountain. And you will see fewer clouds in the sky between you and the sun. Sometimes the sky doesn’t look blue. When the sun rises and falls, you will see red, orange, and other colours in the sky. Such are the most beautiful moments of the day.
Who can see the colours of the sky high above the earth? The astronauts! They can see those beautiful colours of the sky from the outer space. However, before flying into outer space, they sit in a spaceship high above the earth, and there is no air at all. The sky would be that dark and its colour would be black.
Now you may understand that we see colours because the air scatters (使散射) the sunlight. Light travels through the air. Without air, there would be no light or colours.
根据语篇内容,选择最佳选项。
41. Why can’t plane fly as high as possible?
A. Because the sky is blue.
B. Because the wings are heavier.
C. Because the air becomes thinner.
42. What will you see when you stand on the top of a high mountain?
A. More air. B. Fewer clouds. C. Redder skies.
43. When might we see many colours in the sky during the day in summer?
A. At around 1:00 am. B. At around 3:00 am. C. At around 7:00 pm.
44. Which of the following is the main reason we see colour?
A. The air. B. The sky C. The clouds.
45. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. How to live above the sky.
B. How to know the height of the sky.
C. The reason why we can see the colours of the sky.
六、选词填空 (本大题共10小题,每小题1.5分,共15分。)
根据语篇内容,从方框中选择恰当的单词,并用其正确形式填空,将单词填写在答题卡对应 的横线上。每个单词只能用一次。
