He tried his best to run away and soon the bear disappeared, but he lost his way. He came out of the forest when the sun was sinking. He didn’t know how to get to the village and was very hungry. Just then, he saw an old man working in the fields.
“Hi, old man,” shouted Mr Smith, “Where does the road go? I never notice it can move. It has been here for hundreds of years.” Answered the old man, “How far is the village from here? I don’t know, said the old man. I haven’t measured it.” Mr Smith became angry. He shouted, “What do you know? You are the most foolish in the world, I think.” “Maybe I am,” said the old man with a smile on his face, “but I have never lost my way at least.”

C
Life in space is much different from life on Earth. So, of course, people need some time to get used to it. How do they eat, sleep and have fun there?
Eating
Space food is more like the food we eat here on Earth. In the past, astronauts could eat only small pieces of dried food. But now the space station has water, microwave ovens (微波炉) and fridges. So astronauts can eat more everyday food, like fruit, vegetables and ice cream.
Sleeping
All the people in the ISS (国际太空站) have their own rooms. There’s no gravity, so they have to tie themselves to their beds, or they’ll float away! That seems like a hard way to sleep, but astronauts say that sleeping in space is really not too bad.
Having fun
What do astronauts do when they aren’t working? They read books, play cards, listen to music or send e-mails to their friends and family. Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window. Doesn’t that sound fun? But is it much funnier if you could see the Earth out of your window with a sunset or sunrise every 45 minutes?
44. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Life in space. B. Life on earth. C. The space. D. The Earth.
45. Why do astronauts tie themselves to beds during their sleep?
A. Because they would fall out of the ISS.
B. Because they may float away.
C. Because they want to sleep well.
D. Because they like this special way of sleep.
46. How does the writer think of sitting and looking out of the window in the spaceship?
A. Terrible. B. Sad. C. Afraid. D. Interesting.
47. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Astronauts can’t eat everyday food in space.
B. You can get your own room when you are in the ISS.
C. Astronauts can’t keep in touch with their friends in space.
D. It is very boring for astronauts to live in space.
【答案】44. A 45. B 46. D 47. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了宇航员在空间站是如何生活的。
【44题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Life in space is much different from life on Earth. So, of course, people need some time to get used to it.”可知,太空中的生命与地球上的生命大不相同。所以,当然,人们需要一些时间来适应它,因此此处it指代太空中的生活。故选A。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据“There’s no gravity, so they have to tie themselves to their beds, or they’ll float away!”可知,太空没有重力,所以他们必须把自己绑在床上,否则他们会飘走。故选B。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window. Doesn’t that sound fun? But is it much funnier if you could see the Earth out of your window with a sunset or sunrise every 45 minutes?”可知,有时他们只是坐着看窗外。听起来是不是很有趣?但是,如果你能每隔45分钟看到一次日落或日出,窗外的地球会更有趣吗?因此可推知作者认为坐在宇宙飞船里看向窗外看是有趣的。故选D。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据“All the people in the ISS (国际太空站) have their own rooms.”可知,国际空间站的所有人都有自己的房间。故选B。
D
Norway’s winter and summer
Norway lies close to the North Pole. It is very cold there in winter. There are only a few hours of sunlight every day.
To most people of Norway, skiing is the best way to have fun in winter. Almost everyone skis. Children learn to ski soon after they learn to walk.
Long long ago in Norway, there were no buses or trains. The people had to find a way to walk over the deep snow. Skis were the right answer ! And Norwegians have been skiing ever since.
Today most Norwegians ski just for fun. Whole families—mothers, fathers and children—may go together on ski trips across the snowy countryside. Some of Norway’s young men and women are among the best skiers in the world. They have won many prizes.
Although they love winter, the people of Norway are happy to see summer come. They enjoy the out-of-doors at any time of the year. In summer they swim and sunbathe. Some people go hiking and mountain climbing. The few short summer months are busy ones for Norwegian farmers, too.
In summer in the northern part of Norway, the sun doesn’t set at all for many days. That is why Norway is often called the “Land of the Midnight Sun”.

48. Children there learn to ski ________.
A. when they are very young B. after they go to school

【解析】

【49题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Long long ago in Norway, there were no buses or trains. The people had to find a way to walk over the deep snow.”可知挪威的人们很早以前就不得不在没有公共汽车或火车的情况下找办法走过深雪。故选D。
【50题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In summer in the northern part of Norway, the sun doesn’t set at all for many days.”可知在挪威北部夏天有很多天太阳都不会落下,因此挪威被称为“Land of the Midnight Sun”。故选C。

Life in space is much different from life on Earth. So, of course, people need some time to get used to it. How do they eat, sleep and have fun there?
Eating
Space food is more like the food we eat here on Earth. In the past, astronauts could eat only small pieces of dried food. But now the space station has water, microwave ovens (微波炉) and fridges. So astronauts can eat more everyday food, like fruit, vegetables and ice cream.
Sleeping
All the people in the ISS (国际太空站) have their own rooms. There’s no gravity, so they have to tie themselves to their beds, or they’ll float away! That seems like a hard way to sleep, but astronauts say that sleeping in space is really not too bad.
Having fun
What do astronauts do when they aren’t working? They read books, play cards, listen to music or send e-mails to their friends and family. Sometimes they just sit and look out of the window. Doesn’t that sound fun? But is it much funnier if you could see the Earth out of your window with a sunset or sunrise every 45 minutes?
44. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Life in space. B. Life on earth. C. The space. D. The Earth.
45. Why do astronauts tie themselves to beds during their sleep?
A. Because they would fall out of the ISS.
B. Because they may float away.
C. Because they want to sleep well.
D. Because they like this special way of sleep.
46. How does the writer think of sitting and looking out of the window in the spaceship?
A. Terrible. B. Sad. C. Afraid. D. Interesting.
47. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Astronauts can’t eat everyday food in space.
B. You can get your own room when you are in the ISS.
C. Astronauts can’t keep in touch with their friends in space.
D. It is very boring for astronauts to live in space.

Norway’s winter and summer
Norway lies close to the North Pole. It is very cold there in winter. There are only a few hours of sunlight every day.
To most people of Norway, skiing is the best way to have fun in winter. Almost everyone skis. Children learn to ski soon after they learn to walk.
Long long ago in Norway, there were no buses or trains. The people had to find a way to walk over the deep snow. Skis were the right answer ! And Norwegians have been skiing ever since.
Today most Norwegians ski just for fun. Whole families—mothers, fathers and children—may go together on ski trips across the snowy countryside. Some of Norway’s young men and women are among the best skiers in the world. They have won many prizes.
Although they love winter, the people of Norway are happy to see summer come. They enjoy the out-of-doors at any time of the year. In summer they swim and sunbathe. Some people go hiking and mountain climbing. The few short summer months are busy ones for Norwegian farmers, too.
In summer in the northern part of Norway, the sun doesn’t set at all for many days. That is why Norway is often called the “Land of the Midnight Sun”.
