8B Unit3 专项训练作业 一、短文还原。（阅读下面的短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填空空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。）（10分） Imagine a holiday to the moon? Sounds crazy? Not really. A Japanese company has been working on how to organize holidays to the moon for several years now. 1. Trying to make the holiday possible will not be an easy task, and the Japanese company plans to make it in stages. 2. A transport system, like the space shuttle (航天飞机) used by NASA, at the moment is likely to be developed for this purpose. The next stage is to build a big hotel orbiting 500 km above the earth. The hotel will orbit the earth once every four or five hours, which will offer visitors some fascinating views of the earth. 3. While this may not seem very exciting at first, think about new sports that can be designed for people to play in zero gravity. The final stage in the plan is the construction of a hotel on the surface of the moon itself. As solar energy would be used to provide power, it would be important to build the hotel near one of the poles of the moon in order to gather as much solar energy as possible. 4. It is also important to find a part of the moon which is flat, as a long runway will need to be built for the space shuttle to land on. Meanwhile, the company has already developed ways to make cement (水泥) on the moon. 5. The company plans to produce water from oxygen elements, which can be found in moon rocks, and hydrogen (氢), which will have to be imported from earth. So perhaps in a few years you might be enjoying yourselves on the moon. A．Next, the hotel will have a wide range of sporting activities. B．Tourists who want to travel into space can stay at a big hotel. C．The first thing to do is to organize trips around the earth for a few hours. D．There would probably be holidays to a moon hotel within the next ten years. E．There is plenty of sand, but the big problem will come with producing water. F．This part of the development plan does not seem to be too difficult to carry out. G．This is because a lunar day, which is 14 earth days long, is followed by 14 days of darkness. 1.__________2.__________3.___________4.__________5.__________ 二、阅读回答问题（10分）（根据文章内容回答问题，每题答案不超过6个词） Chaka Salt Lake lies (位于) in Qinghai Province, China. It sits at an altitude (海拔) of about 3,100 meters and covers an area of about 105 square kilometers. It is rich in salt with a heavy salt bed close to the lake surface (表面). That makes the lake a main source (来源) of salt in our country. When the weather is clear, the lake offers beautiful reflections (影像) of the blue sky. That is why people call it “sky mirror (镜子)”. Because of its wonderful views, people see the lake as one of the “must-go” places in China.The beautiful sunrise and sunset views are the most attractive (迷人的). Every July, large numbers of visitors begin to crowd to (涌入) Chaka Salt Lake. And the situation usually lasts until the end of August. Because they just don’t want to miss the best time to go there. It is believed that with the summer breeze (微风), breathing in the salty air is especially good for lungs (肺). If you want to go on a trip to the lake, the following tips may be helpful. ◆ Do not eat the salt in the lake directly. ◆ Wear sunglasses and a hat because of the strong sunshine. ◆ You can’t stop taking photos, so you’d better take your camera with you. ◆ Prepare some medicine for the weak and the elderly to deal with altitude sickness. Travelling to such a beautiful world of salt with snowy mountains and green grass around, you will feel like you are in a fairyland. 1．Where does Chaka Salt Lake lie? ___________________________________________ 2．What’s the area of Chaka Salt Lake? ___________________________________________ 3．Why do people see Chaka Salt Lake as one of the “must-go” places in China? ___________________________________________ 4．When is the best time to visit Chaka Salt Lake? ___________________________________________ 5．Why should people prepare medicine for the weak and the elderly? ___________________________________________ 三、根短文内容及所给首字母提示，写出所缺单词，使短文完整通顺。（10分） Do you like travelling?

He was a greedy（贪婪的） man and loved gold better than anything else in the world. One day, he asked God to give him more gold. God decided to punish him and said, “Your wish is allowed already. Everything you touch will turn into gold.” Midas was very happy when he heard this. The next morning he got up early to test his skill. When he touched his bed, it turned into gold. “Gold!” cried Midas, laughing like a little boy. “It works!” Not only stones, and the furniture of his palace turned into gold, but when he sat down to table, so did the food he ate and the water he drank. He was unhappy now. Just then his daughter ran up to him, Midas touched her hand. At once her body became cold and stiff（僵硬的）,Midas was holding a gold girl. At last, he begged God to free him from his wish. “Go to the river and have a bath in it,”God said. So Midas did, and the water took away his golden touch.
