[素能提升] Ⅰ.阅读理解 Some new comets (彗星) have been discovered accidentally by amateur (业余的) astronomers.Surprisingly a few bright comets have been discovered with the naked eye by members of the general public.However，a great number of comets are found by comet hunters carrying out telescope searches of chosen areas of the night sky. As the movement of all comets is directed around the Sun and because these bodies brighten as they move towards the Sun，there is a greater possibility for the discovery of a new comet in the skies towards the Sun rather than away from the Sun’s direction.This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light. From the astronomical point there is no time during the year which is the best for the discovery of new comets.A search can be done at any time providing there is no bright Moon. Studies done on the discovery conditions of comets discovered before show that more comets have been discovered in the morning sky than in the evening sky.Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much if not more attention than any evening effort. In recent times，the use of advanced CCD technology to discover objects close to the Earth will in the future greatly reduce the chances of new comets being found with small telescopes.An example of the new technology is the very successful LINEAR program operating in New Mexico.However，until a similar system is based in the southern half of the Earth there will continue to be chances for the discovery of new comets which come from the south. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了观测彗星的要领。 1．What are comet hunters advised to do? A．Look away from the Sun. B．Stay where there’s bright light. C．Face the western sky in the daytime. D．Turn to the east in the early morning. D　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This means that searches should be put on the western sky after evening light and on the eastern sky before morning light.”可知，早晨太阳出来之前应观测东面的天空。故选D。] 2．What do we know about the time for the discovery of new comets? A．Days when they’re close to the Earth are great chances. B．Certain fixed days are best for watching comets. C．Every day is the same if there’s no bright Moon. D．Days with the Moon should never be missed. C　[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A search can be done at any time providing there is no bright Moon.”可知，只要没有明亮的月亮，每一天都一样可以观测。故选C。] 3．Which of the following is a smart idea for comet hunters? A．Paying more attention in the morning than in the afternoon. B．Being equally serious both in the morning and afternoon. C．Being more relaxed in the morning than in the afternoon. D．Forming a habit of working only in the morning. B　[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Thus the smart comet hunter should make sure that morning activity receives as much if not more attention than any evening effort.”可知，早晚观测彗星应该投入一样的精力。故选B。] 4．What can be inferred about the CCD technology? A．It’s similar to a telescope. B．It’ll disappoint comet hunters. C．It’s spreading all over the world. D．It’ll make comet hunters feel lucky. B　[推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“the use of advanced CCD technology...greatly reduce the chances of new comets being found with small telescopes”可知，CCD技术降低了彗星猎人发现新的彗星的概率，因此他们应该会感到有些失望。故选B。] Ⅱ.完形填空 When you lose your wallet somewhere，you can pretty much kiss that wallet and anything in it goodbye.But 20­year­old Hunter Shamatt had a __1__ person watching out for him.
