Do you ever think about the universe? It’s amazing, isn’t it? How big is it? What’s out there? Are there other planets with life on them? We don’t know yet, but we’re trying to discover more.
Some people work hard to learn about the universe. They are astronomers (天文学家) and they look at the stars. Other people design (设计) and make machines and these machines travel in space. These people are astronauts. Astronauts go up into space and look at the earth. They also take photos of the other planets and the stars. Sometimes they live in space for a few days or weeks. They do experiments (实验) and learn about what happens to the human body in space. The space is really mysterious. It’s strange but interesting for us because we don’t know much about it.
Soon, some people will be able to travel into space for fun. A company called Virgin Galactic is designing a new kind of plane. This plane can go very fast and very high. People who want to travel in space will pay $200,000 for a ticket. The plane goes up to 100 kilometers above the earth. There are only six passengers and two pilots on the plane. The journey is only two hours, so the passengers don’t get any food. But they can see the earth from space and that’s an amazing thing! This could be the most exciting holiday experience in the future.

A. doing experiments B. designing new machines C. looking at the earth D. taking photos of other stars
32 What does the underlined word “mysterious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

33. How long is the trip on the new space travel plane?
A. Two days. B. Two weeks. C. Two hours. D. Two months.
34. According to the passage, what will people do if they want to travel to space in the future?
A. Buy tickets for your family with eight people.
B. Pay $200,000 for a ticket on a special plane.
C. Enjoy two nights in space.
D. Bring food for lunch on the plane.

【导语】本文讲述了一个关于自信和独立思考的重要性的故事。
【41题详解】
句意:一天在课堂上,讲台上的老师举起一个苹果说:“请闻一闻它在空气中的味道!”根据“Please...it in the air!”以及后文提到学生闻到苹果的味道,可知此处是让闻苹果,“smell”意为“闻”,符合语境,且“please”后接动词原形。故填smell。
【42题详解】
句意:一个学生举起手,快速地回答:“我闻过了。这是苹果的味道。”根据“One student put up his hand and answered...”以及后文学生说出自己的想法,可知此处需要一个副词修饰“answered”,quickly“快速地”符合。故填quickly。
【43题详解】
句意:老师走下讲台,从每个学生身边经过并说:“请再闻一闻,看看苹果的味道是否还在空气中!”根据“passed by each of the...”可知,这里说的是从每个学生身边经过,“student”是可数名词,each of后接名词复数形式“students”。故填students。
【44题详解】
句意:老师走下讲台,从每个学生身边经过并说:“请再闻一闻,看看苹果的味道是否还在空气中!”根据“to see if the smell of the apple is still in the air”可知,老师让学生再闻一次,“again”表示“再一次”。故填again。
【45题详解】
句意:老师回到教室前面,再次问学生们是否能闻到苹果的味道。根据“to the front of the classroom”可知,老师回到教室前面,“return to”表示“返回到”,全文时态为一般过去时,所以用“return”的过去式“returned”。故填returned。
【46题详解】
句意:除了安德鲁,每个人都举起了手。根据“Everyone put up their hands...Andrew.”以及后文安德鲁说闻不到苹果味,可知这里是除了安德鲁,其他人都举手了,“but”表示“除……之外”。故填but。
【47题详解】
句意:老师对他笑了笑,兴奋地对全班同学说:“他说得对!这不是一个真苹果。”根据“The teacher smiled...him”可知,“smile at sb.”是固定短语,意为“对某人微笑”。故填at。
【48题详解】
句意:听到这些话后,其他所有学生都很惊讶。根据“After hearing the words, all of the...students were surprised.”可知,这里说的是除了安德鲁之外的其他学生,“other”表示“其他的”,后接名词复数。故填other。
【49题详解】
句意:他们可能想过苹果不是真的,但他们没有勇气说出来。根据“but they were not...to say it out”可知这里说他们不够勇敢说出来,“brave”表示“勇敢的”。故填brave。
【50题详解】
句意:这是一个多么重要的启示啊!根据“What an important...this is!”可知,这里说的是这是一个重要的启示,“lesson”有“教训;启示”的意思,an修饰名词单数。故填lesson。

Do you ever think about the universe? It’s amazing, isn’t it? How big is it? What’s out there? Are there other planets with life on them? We don’t know yet, but we’re trying to discover more.
Some people work hard to learn about the universe. They are astronomers (天文学家) and they look at the stars. Other people design (设计) and make machines and these machines travel in space. These people are astronauts. Astronauts go up into space and look at the earth. They also take photos of the other planets and the stars. Sometimes they live in space for a few days or weeks. They do experiments (实验) and learn about what happens to the human body in space. The space is really mysterious. It’s strange but interesting for us because we don’t know much about it.
Soon, some people will be able to travel into space for fun. A company called Virgin Galactic is designing a new kind of plane. This plane can go very fast and very high. People who want to travel in space will pay $200,000 for a ticket. The plane goes up to 100 kilometers above the earth. There are only six passengers and two pilots on the plane. The journey is only two hours, so the passengers don’t get any food. But they can see the earth from space and that’s an amazing thing! This could be the most exciting holiday experience in the future.
