Where is “space” exactly? This may seem like a simple question, but the answer may be more difficult than you think.
Nowadays, most countries are generally in agreement that space begins when Earth’s atmosphere ends. But no one can tell where atmosphere actually ends and outer space begins. This leaves the door open for a variety of explanations until the Karman Line was recognized by international laws. The so-called Karman Line is an imaginary line 100 kilometers above Earth’s surface. Once this line is crossed, the air is too thin and traditional planes would need to reach the speed of 30,564 kilometers per hour or risk falling back to Earth. According to the international laws, once pilots and aircraft cross that line, they are recognized as astronauts and spacecraft and are free to conduct space operations without concern for international borders (边境).
In the early age of space exploration, the US defined space differently and insisted that space start 19.3 kilometers below the Karman Line, since the US was confident that it would lead and remain to be the leader in the traditional aircraft industry.
Well aware that the US wanted to operate advanced spying (侦查) aircraft safely, many developing countries opposed the idea and sought to establish much higher space limits — 965.6 kilometers above Earth’s surface. This space limit makes things a bit difficult for every country, though. At that height, even the International Space Station and Tiangong Space Station (orbiting between 320 to 435 kilometers up), and many satellites (orbiting 869 kilometers up) would not be considered spacecraft!
In recent years, the US has been trying to determine a “safer border of space”. In 2009, it suggested that the border of space begin at l18 kilometers above Earth’s surface. What was its argument this time? It said that many breakthroughs have been made in space and spying technologies by other countries!
12. What is correct about the Kármán Line according to the international laws?
A. It is unsafe for some countries. B. Traditional planes should not cross it.
C. Pilots can fly freely above it. D. It is the highest line pilots can reach.
13. Many less developed countries suggested that space begin at_______.
A. 965.6 kilometers above Earth’s surface
B. 118 kilometers above Earth’s surface
C. 100 kilometers above Earth’s surface
D. 90.7 kilometers above Earth’s surface
14. What does the author most probably think of the US’ suggestions?
A. Smart. B. Unfair. C. Scientific. D. Uncreative.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Where Does Space Begin Exactly?
B. How High Should the Karman Line Be?
C. How Can We Protect Our National Borders?
D. Why Does the US Want to Change the Karman Line?

Where is “space” exactly? This may seem like a simple question, but the answer may be more difficult than you think.
Nowadays, most countries are generally in agreement that space begins when Earth’s atmosphere ends. But no one can tell where atmosphere actually ends and outer space begins. This leaves the door open for a variety of explanations until the Karman Line was recognized by international laws. The so-called Karman Line is an imaginary line 100 kilometers above Earth’s surface. Once this line is crossed, the air is too thin and traditional planes would need to reach the speed of 30,564 kilometers per hour or risk falling back to Earth. According to the international laws, once pilots and aircraft cross that line, they are recognized as astronauts and spacecraft and are free to conduct space operations without concern for international borders (边境).
In the early age of space exploration, the US defined space differently and insisted that space start 19.3 kilometers below the Karman Line, since the US was confident that it would lead and remain to be the leader in the traditional aircraft industry.
Well aware that the US wanted to operate advanced spying (侦查) aircraft safely, many developing countries opposed the idea and sought to establish much higher space limits — 965.6 kilometers above Earth’s surface. This space limit makes things a bit difficult for every country, though. At that height, even the International Space Station and Tiangong Space Station (orbiting between 320 to 435 kilometers up), and many satellites (orbiting 869 kilometers up) would not be considered spacecraft!
In recent years, the US has been trying to determine a “safer border of space”. In 2009, it suggested that the border of space begin at l18 kilometers above Earth’s surface. What was its argument this time? It said that many breakthroughs have been made in space and spying technologies by other countries!
12. What is correct about the Kármán Line according to the international laws?
A. It is unsafe for some countries. B. Traditional planes should not cross it.
C. Pilots can fly freely above it. D. It is the highest line pilots can reach.
13. Many less developed countries suggested that space begin at_______.
A. 965.6 kilometers above Earth’s surface
B. 118 kilometers above Earth’s surface
C. 100 kilometers above Earth’s surface
D. 90.7 kilometers above Earth’s surface
14. What does the author most probably think of the US’ suggestions?
A. Smart. B. Unfair. C. Scientific. D. Uncreative.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Where Does Space Begin Exactly?
B. How High Should the Karman Line Be?
C. How Can We Protect Our National Borders?
D. Why Does the US Want to Change the Karman Line?
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了太空的起点在哪里的问题。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“According to the international laws, once pilots and aircraft cross that line, they are recognized as astronauts and spacecraft and are free to conduct space operations without concern for international borders (边境).(根据国际法,一旦飞行员和飞机跨过了这条线,它们就被看做是宇航员或者宇宙飞船,能自由地进行太空操作,而不用担心国际边界的问题。)”可知,根据国际法律,飞机一旦跨越了卡门线,就不用受国际边界的约束,能自由地飞行,故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Well aware that the US wanted to operate advanced spying(侦查) aircraft safely, many developing countries opposed the idea and sought to establish much higher space limits—965.6 kilometers above Earth’s surface.(知道美国想要安全地操控先进的侦察飞船,因此很多发展中国家反对这一想法,并寻求建立更高的太空限制——在地球表面以上965.6千米处。)”可知,许多欠发达国家建议太空从地球表面以上965.6公里开始,故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In recent years, the US has been trying to determine a “safer border of space”. In 2009, it suggested that the border of space begin at l18 kilometers above Earth’s surface. What was its argument this time? It said that many breakthroughs have been made in space and spying technologies by other countries!(近年来,美国一直在试图确定一个“更安全的太空边界”。2009年,它提出太空边界始于地球表面以上118公里处。这次它的论点是什么?它说其他国家在太空和间谍技术方面取得了许多突破!)”可知,美国因为认为其他国家在太空和间谍技术方面取得了许多突破,因此提出太空边界应始于地球表面以上118公里处,这只是为了它自己的利益出发,故可推知,作者认为美国的建议是不公平的,故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Where is “space” exactly? This may seem like a simple question, but the answer may be more difficult than you think.(太空到底从哪里开始?这似乎是第一个简单的问题,但答案却比你想象中难得多。)”可知,文章在第一段提出关于太空的起点在哪里的问题,后文分别介绍了不同的国家有不同的看法。由此可知,A项“太空到底从哪里开始?”为文章的最佳标题。故选A。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了北京图书馆高效藏书及智能服务的特点。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在一个藏书超过 800 万册的图书馆里,读者下单后需要多长时间才能收到书?It takes sb. some time to do sth.是固定句型,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”,此处应用动词不定式作真正主语。故填to receive。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意:北京图书馆位于通州区东部,自去年12月底开放以来,已成为一个受欢迎的地方。根据时间状语“since it opened in late December”可知,空处谓语动词需用现在完成时态:have/has done,主语是单数,所以此处助动词需用has。故填has become。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:爱书之人不仅被图书馆的建筑所吸引,还被其丰富的藏书和智能服务所吸引。plentiful是形容词,修饰名词,collect的名词为collection“收藏品”,此处指藏书,需用单数。故填collection。
【39题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:北京图书馆占地约7.5万平方米,藏书超过800万册。此处描述事实,需用一般现在时态,空格处是谓语动词,主语是单数,所以谓语动词需用houses“容纳、藏书”的第三人称单数形式。故填houses。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它们是中国最大的图书自动存储和检索系统的一部分,也被称为AS/RS。本句已有谓语动词are,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词;(be) known as“作为……而出名”,know与其逻辑主语the largest single automated storage and retrieval (检索) system之间是被动关系,所以空处需用过去分词known作后置定语。故填known。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:这些书库的总存储面积不到3000平方米,但由于其特殊的设计,它们却能存储多达710万册图书。修饰动词have用副词totally“完全地,整个地”。故填totally。
【42题详解】
考查代词。句意同上。空处需用形容词性物主代词their修饰名词design。故填their。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在传统图书馆中,这么大的空间至少需要1万平方米的存储面积。空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词library,tradition的形容词为traditional“传统的”。故填traditional。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:不想去图书馆的读者可以使用在线借阅服务,该服务会将图书送到他们家门口。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词Readers,指人,且关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词who/that引导该从句。故填who/that。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:这项服务面向北京以及邻近的天津和河北省的读者开放。be open to“对……开放”,固定搭配。故填to。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Sam and Tom were twins. They were so alike that even their mother found it difficult to tell one from the other. However, they were very different from each other when it came to everything except for their appearance. Sam had no friends, while Tom was a great friendship maker. Sam loved sweets, but Tom loved spicy food and detested sweets. Sam was Mommy’s pet and Tom was Daddy’s pet. While Sam was generous and selfless, Tom was greedy (贪婪的) and selfish!
As Sam and Tom grew up, their father wanted to share his fortune equally between them. However, Tom did not agree and he argued that whoever, proved to be stronger and cleverer would have to get a bigger share of the wealth. Sam agreed. Their father decided to organize a competition. He asked them to walk as long as they could, and return home before sunset. The wealth would be divided according to the distance covered. But they were not allowed to carry a watch to keep track of the time.
The following day, Sam and Tom set out to walk. It was a rather sunny day. Sam walked slowly and steadily, while Tom broke into a sprint (全速奔跑) as he wanted to win so much. Sam knew that it would be ideal to walk as far as possible till noon and start for home at noon as it would take the same amount of time to walk back home. Knowing this, Sam decided to turn back for home at noon so as to reach home on time.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150左右;(2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
However, Tom did not try to return home even after noon.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Tom lost the race.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
However, Tom did not try to return home even after noon. He was so eager to win that he kept walking further and further away from home. He thought that if he walked more, he would be able to cover a greater distance and thus win the competition. As the sun began to set, Tom realized that he had lost track of time and had no idea how far he had walked or how to find his way back home.
Tom lost the race. When he finally reached home, it was already dark. His father was waiting for him and explained that Sam had won the competition because he had followed the rules and returned home before sunset. He said that although Tom had walked farther, he had lost his way and couldn’t even find his way back home before sunset. Tom felt ashamed and realized that he had been too greedy and selfish. He learned a valuable lesson that day about the importance of honesty, integrity, and following rules.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了双胞胎兄弟Sam和Tom性格迥异,父亲为了公平分配财产,让他们进行一场行走比赛,规定谁能在日落前走得最远并返回,谁就能获得更多的财富。比赛当天,Sam稳步前行,并在中午准时返回,而Tom则一味追求速度,忽略了时间。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“然而,即使过了中午,汤姆也没有试图回家。”可知,第一段可描写汤姆没有在中午往回走,因为走得太远而无法在天黑之前走回家。
②由第二段首句内容“汤姆输掉了比赛。”可知,第二段可描写汤姆输掉比赛和汤姆从中得到的感悟。
2.续写线索:继续走——迷路——输掉比赛——父亲安慰——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①赢得比赛:win the competition/claim victory in the competition
②遵守规则:follow the rules/stick to the rules
③迷路:lose one’s way/get lost
情绪类
①渴望做某事:be eager to do/be keen to do/be dying to do
②羞愧的:ashamed/guilty
【点睛】【高分句型1】He thought that if he walked more, he would be able to cover a greater distance and thus win the competition.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及if引导的条件状语从句)
【高分句型2】He said that although Tom had walked farther, he had lost his way and couldn’t even find his way back home before sunset.(运用了that引导的宾语从句以及although引导的让步状语从句)
