Men have always wanted to fly in the sky. Their tries to fly into the sky persisted for many years. Their dreams of flying to the sky never stopped.
They watched birds flying and wished they could fly, too. Men made wings and tied them on their bodies to help them fly. But they failed again and again. Men knew how to make kites. They made different kinds of kites and tried to fly with the help of them. But unluckily, many of them were badly hurt. So they had to stop trying to fly with wings or kites.
In 1783, two Frenchmen found hot air was lighter than cold air. They then built a balloon. They filled it with hot air and it went up into the air. The next year a big hot-air balloon carried 7 persons to a height of 900 meters.
Later, airships (飞艇 ) were made in the world. It could fly up into the sky with the help of hydrogen gas (氢气). The hydrogen gas caught fire very easily. At last people stopped making airships.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以时间顺序为脉络,客观介绍了人类从模仿鸟类、借助风筝尝试飞行,到发明热气球、飞艇,再到研制出飞机和火箭的飞行探索历程。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Men watched birds flying and wished they could fly, too. Men made wings and tied them on their bodies to help them fly.”可知,人类制作翅膀并绑在身上的直接目的,是为了实现自己飞天的愿望,并非想变成鸟、制作风筝或借助风筝飞行。故选C。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The next year a big hot-air balloon carried 7 persons to a height of 900 meters.”可知,这个大型热气球搭载了7个人;而900米是飞行高度,1783年是热气球发明年份,均不符合题意。故选A。
【38题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Their tries to fly into the sky persisted for many years. Their dreams of flying to the sky never stopped.”可知,人类的飞天梦想从未停止;据此可以推断,划线单词“persisted”和“never stopped”含义相近,意为“持续、坚持”,选项中“continued”与之匹配;allowed“允许”、pulled“拉”、recorded“记录”均不符合语境。故选B。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“It could fly up into the sky with the help of hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas caught fire very easily. At last people stopped making airships.”可知,氢气极易燃烧是人类停止制造飞艇的直接原因;其他选项:选项A是早期用翅膀、风筝尝试飞行的后果;选项B在文中未提及;选项C是热气球升空的原理,均与题意无关。故选D。
【40题详解】
最佳标题题。全文围绕“人类为实现飞天梦所做的各种尝试”展开,从早期的翅膀、风筝,到后来的热气球、飞艇、飞机和火箭,核心是“飞行尝试”,选项D“人类飞向天空的尝试”准确概括了这一主线,适合作为文章的标题。其他选项:选项A“人类的发明”范围过广;选项B“人类的梦想”过于笼统,未体现“尝试”的过程;选项C“人类飞天的愚蠢方法”表述片面且消极,不符合文章主旨。故选D。
