It’s very difficult to find people to help us on our plantations (种植园).” “We need some slaves,” another said. “Some slaves from Africa.” “We want to send a ship there to bring some back,” said the third. “But one of us must go to choose the slaves. You know Africa, Robinson. You are the best person to go. What do you say?” They looked at me with worried faces while waiting for my reply. “I have an easy life here,” I thought. “It isn’t a good idea to leave everything and go to sea again.” But I went. How stupid I was! We sailed north along the coast. At Cape Saint Augustino, we changed direction and went east. Soon the land was far behind us and all we could see was water. At first the weather was good — it was sunny and hot. Then one morning it changed suddenly. A strong wind began to blow and the sky filled with big black clouds. “Oh, no! A storm!” I thought and I went below deck. The wind got stronger and the sea got rougher. Our brave captain tried to keep the ship on its course, but he couldn’t. The wind blew it across the sea for twelve days. “We’re all going to die,” I thought. When the weather started to get better at last, the captain and I tried to find our position on a map. “The storm took us north,” he said. “I think we must be near here.” He pointed to the mouth of the river Orinoco. “The ship is full of holes,” he went on. We need to repair them. “We must go back to Brazil.” “No,” I said. “We aren’t far from the island of Barbados. We must go there. They speak English and we can find people to help us repair the ship.” So we sailed north-east into the Caribbean Sea. We were making good progress when there was another storm. Once again the strong wind blew our ship off its course. This time it took us west and away from Barbados. We were going towards unknown lands. The lands of cannibals (食人者)! “The future doesn’t look good!” I thought unhappily. “Dying in the sea or in a cooking pot!” The storm continued for several days. —From Robinson Crusoe 49. Why did they plan to send a ship to Africa? A. To get more money. B. To buy some slaves there. C. To have an adventure. D. To find a new place to live. 50.

Robinson and the men decided to go to sea again. A. b-a-c-d B. d-a-b-c C. d-b-a-c D. b-c-d-a 【答案】49. B 50. B 51. C 【解析】 【导语】本文节选自《鲁滨逊漂流记》，讲述了鲁滨逊出海去寻找奴隶的故事。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“but we haven’t got enough workers. It’s very difficult to find people to help us on our plantations ”及第二段“We need some slaves”可知，他们需要奴隶为他们工作。故选B。 【50题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“The wind got stronger and the sea got rougher. Our brave captain tried to keep the ship on its course, but he couldn’t.”可知，风越来越大，海浪也越来越汹涌，船长应是努力保持船的正常航向，也就是“方向”，划线单词course与way同义，故选B。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It isn’t a good idea to leave everything and go to sea again...A strong wind began to blow and the sky filled with big black clouds...The wind got stronger and the sea got rougher.....They speak English and we can find people to help us repair the ship....We were making good progress when there was another storm. Once again the strong wind blew our ship off its course....The storm continued for several days.”可知，先是他们决定再次出海（d），接着是遇到了一次风暴（b），然后是鲁滨逊和船员们想在岛上找人修理他们的船（a），最后有一次遇到了风暴，风暴持续了几天（c）。故选C。 C The Earth has just been sent a message from space. People around the world are now trying to find out what the message says. But the message wasn’t from aliens (外星人). Instead, it’s part of a project designed to see how humans might react if they did get a message from aliens. The idea that there might be aliens is popular in books and films. But so far, there’s been no known signs that they exist (存在). Still, many scientists believe the universe is large enough that it’s likely that other intelligent creatures could exist somewhere. ▲ The most well-known group is called Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI，搜寻地外文明计划). SETI scientists are working to find signs of life in other parts of the universe. One of the big questions about such creatures is, if they existed, would we be able to communicate with them? Daniela de Paulis is an artist who’s working with scientists at SETI. She wanted to know what would happen if the Earth actually received a message from space. What would people do? Would people be able to work together to find out what the message said? Ms. de Paulis came up with a project designed to find out what people would do after receiving such a message. She calls the project “A Sign in Space”. She worked with a group of scientists at SETI to come up with a secret message. On 24th May, the European Space Agency’s TGO spacecraft beamed the message back to the Earth from Mars. The signal (信号) was picked up by several radio telescopes (射电望远镜) around the world. The information from the message has now been put on the Internet. Anyone can download it and try to find out what it means. A Special website has been set up for people to report their ideas about the message, and talk about any progress they make in trying to translate it. 52. We may find the passage from a magazine about ________ . A. environmental protection B. natural disasters C. life on another planet D. fashion design 53. Why did people send a message from space? A. To know how people react. B. To let us know aliens’ lifestyle. C. To tell that we haven’t found aliens. D. To use radio telescopes around the world. 54. Which of the following sentences is the most suitable for ▲ ? A. So far, scientists have already found out the message. B. In fact, everyone is interested in what the message says. C. A number of scientists are trying to find signs of such creatures. D. The aliens try their best to talk to people on the Earth these years. 55. What do we know about Daniela de Paulis according to the passage? A. She has little interest in aliens. B. She thought of a secret message by herself. C. She is a scientist who shows great interest in art. D. She worked with scientists at SETI on the project. 【答案】52. C 53. A 54. C 55. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章讲述了一个名为“A Sign in Space”的项目，该项目旨在模拟地球收到来自太空的信息时，人类会如何反应。 【52题详解】 推理判断题。文章开头“The Earth has just been sent a message from space.”指出，地球刚刚收到了来自太空的信息，通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一个旨在模拟地球收到来自太空的信息时，人类会如何反应的项目，故本文可能出现在关于外星文明的杂志中。故选C。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据“to see how humans might react if they did get a message from aliens.”可知，人们从太空发送了一条信息是为了观察人类在收到外星人信息时会如何反应。故选A。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The most well-known group is called Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI，搜寻地外文明计划).”可知，下文提到了最著名的组织之一被称为搜寻地外文明计划，可推知此处是说许多科学家都正在试图寻找这类生物的迹象。故选C。 【55题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Daniela de Paulis is an artist who’s working with scientists at SETI. She wanted to know what would happen if the Earth actually received a message from space.”可知，Daniela de Paulis是一位与SETI的科学家们合作的艺术家，她想知道如果地球真的收到了一条来自太空的信息会发生什么。故选D。 五、信息还原 根据文章内容，从选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，其中有两个为多余选项。 Gifts are a way for people to show love.

It’s very difficult to find people to help us on our plantations (种植园).” “We need some slaves,” another said. “Some slaves from Africa.” “We want to send a ship there to bring some back,” said the third. “But one of us must go to choose the slaves. You know Africa, Robinson. You are the best person to go. What do you say?” They looked at me with worried faces while waiting for my reply. “I have an easy life here,” I thought. “It isn’t a good idea to leave everything and go to sea again.” But I went. How stupid I was! We sailed north along the coast. At Cape Saint Augustino, we changed direction and went east. Soon the land was far behind us and all we could see was water. At first the weather was good — it was sunny and hot. Then one morning it changed suddenly. A strong wind began to blow and the sky filled with big black clouds. “Oh, no! A storm!” I thought and I went below deck. The wind got stronger and the sea got rougher. Our brave captain tried to keep the ship on its course, but he couldn’t. The wind blew it across the sea for twelve days. “We’re all going to die,” I thought. When the weather started to get better at last, the captain and I tried to find our position on a map. “The storm took us north,” he said. “I think we must be near here.” He pointed to the mouth of the river Orinoco. “The ship is full of holes,” he went on. We need to repair them. “We must go back to Brazil.” “No,” I said. “We aren’t far from the island of Barbados. We must go there. They speak English and we can find people to help us repair the ship.” So we sailed north-east into the Caribbean Sea. We were making good progress when there was another storm. Once again the strong wind blew our ship off its course. This time it took us west and away from Barbados. We were going towards unknown lands. The lands of cannibals (食人者)! “The future doesn’t look good!” I thought unhappily. “Dying in the sea or in a cooking pot!” The storm continued for several days. —From Robinson Crusoe 49.

People around the world are now trying to find out what the message says. But the message wasn’t from aliens (外星人). Instead, it’s part of a project designed to see how humans might react if they did get a message from aliens. The idea that there might be aliens is popular in books and films. But so far, there’s been no known signs that they exist (存在). Still, many scientists believe the universe is large enough that it’s likely that other intelligent creatures could exist somewhere. ▲ The most well-known group is called Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI，搜寻地外文明计划). SETI scientists are working to find signs of life in other parts of the universe. One of the big questions about such creatures is, if they existed, would we be able to communicate with them? Daniela de Paulis is an artist who’s working with scientists at SETI. She wanted to know what would happen if the Earth actually received a message from space. What would people do? Would people be able to work together to find out what the message said? Ms. de Paulis came up with a project designed to find out what people would do after receiving such a message. She calls the project “A Sign in Space”. She worked with a group of scientists at SETI to come up with a secret message. On 24th May, the European Space Agency’s TGO spacecraft beamed the message back to the Earth from Mars. The signal (信号) was picked up by several radio telescopes (射电望远镜) around the world. The information from the message has now been put on the Internet. Anyone can download it and try to find out what it means. A Special website has been set up for people to report their ideas about the message, and talk about any progress they make in trying to translate it. 52. We may find the passage from a magazine about ________ . A. environmental protection B. natural disasters C. life on another planet D. fashion design 53. Why did people send a message from space? A.

A number of scientists are trying to find signs of such creatures. D. The aliens try their best to talk to people on the Earth these years. 55.
