Imagine the situation. You are driving alone in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device (设备) which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates (计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate (精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
31. What will you do if you are driving alone in a desert or on a mountain?
A. Ask the policemen for help. B. Ask your parents for help.
C. Ask your geography teacher for help. D. Take a GPS with you.
32. What does GPS look like?
A. A small box. B. A small present. C. A mobile phone. D. A small plane.
33. What does the underlined word “position” in paragraph 1 mean in English?
A. machine B. system C. decision D. place
34. How many parts are there in the Global Positioning System?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Do you know satellites?
B. Do you know how to get out of the desert?
C. Do you know GPS?
D. Do you know your position?
【答案】31. D 32. C 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了全球定位系统(GPS)的功能、组成部分、现状以及未来发展趋势。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you.”可知,带上全球定位系统,这个发明可能帮上忙。故选D。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It looks like a mobile phone.”可知,全球定位系统看起来像一台手机。故选C。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段“A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.”可知,全球定位系统能让人知道自己在哪里,所以划线词“position”的意思是“位置”。故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“There are three parts to the Global Positioning System.”可知,全球定位系统由三个部分组成。故选B。
【35题详解】
最佳标题题。根据第二段“GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver.”及全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了全球定位系统(GPS)的功能、组成部分、现状以及未来发展趋势。所以“你知道全球定位系统吗?”最适合作为标题。故选C。

Imagine the situation. You are driving alone in a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device (设备) which uses satellites to find the user’s position. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates (计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate (精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
31. What will you do if you are driving alone in a desert or on a mountain?
A. Ask the policemen for help. B. Ask your parents for help.
C. Ask your geography teacher for help. D. Take a GPS with you.
32. What does GPS look like?
A. A small box. B. A small present. C. A mobile phone. D. A small plane.
33. What does the underlined word “position” in paragraph 1 mean in English?
A. machine B. system C. decision D. place
34. How many parts are there in the Global Positioning System?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Do you know satellites?
B. Do you know how to get out of the desert?
C. Do you know GPS?
D. Do you know your position?
配对阅读。第一栏是对五个人负面情绪的描述,第二栏是七个应对的建议。请为他们找到合适的建议,并将答题卡上对应题目所选的选项涂黑。
___36___ Martha thinks it’s not fair. Her brother goes to bed at eight o’clock, but she has to go at seven. Mom says that he is older than her so of course he could go to bed later.
___37___ The homework looks really, really difficult for Jamie. He keeps looking at it, but he doesn’t know what he is supposed to do. He is so worried.
___38___The teacher read out the names for the school basketball team. Jordan didn’t believe he wasn’t on the team. He might give up.
___39___Rio’s dad is working away from home. Rio often complains (抱怨) why Dad can’t work here like others’ parents.
___40___She is worried everyone will laugh at her when she speaks because she speaks differently from everyone else.
A. Don’t rush about (急促). If you slow down, maybe that will help. It’s hard to stay calm when you’re in a rush. But you had really better get going!
B. Why don’t you go and speak to the teacher and tell him how much you like basketball? Maybe he will tell you the reason or how you can work to achieve it.
C. You sound great. Come and meet your desk-mate first, then other classmates. Don’t worry. They’ll love your way of pronouncing too.
D. Don’t worry. You can look at the homework with your classmate. It might not be as difficult as you think.
