①What will our life be like in 50 years? Although we don’t know the answer, we believe that it will be very different from the life today. In the future, I think we will live on Mars. Here is what life will be like there.
②First of all, transport should be much better. Now, our spaceships (宇宙飞船) are too slow to carry lots of people to space—it takes months. However, in the future, it will take us two or three days to get to Mars by spaceship!
③Life on Mars may allow people to have more free time. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we will have more time for our hobbies.
④How about the food, water, and air people need to live? Scientists will be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air we need. However, can these plants give water to us? There is no answer now.
⑤There are also some problems for us. Mars pulls us much less than the earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To stop this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to put on weight. What’s more, food will look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as it is today. Also, space travel may make many people feel ill.
23. What will the future spaceship be like?
A. It will be much slower. B. It will become much faster.
C. It will be more expensive. D. It can carry people to any place.
24. What does the underlined word “this” refer to?
A. Flying away into space. B. Becoming much heavier.
C. Looking more beautiful. D. Eating too many pills.
25. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage?
A. B.
C. D.
26. Who may be interested in this passage?
A. Miss Xie, a traveller, who tries to fly around the world.
B. Ms Liang, a reporter, who loves reading history books.
C. Mr Smith, a chef, who studies plants.
D. Ann, a student, who wants to learn about the future life in space.
【答案】23. B 24. A 25. B 26. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了作者所畅想的人们50年后在火星上的生活。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的 “Now, our spaceships (宇宙飞船) are too slow to carry lots of people to space—it takes months. However, in the future, it will take us two or three days to get to Mars by spaceship!” 可知,未来的宇宙飞船更快。故选B。
【24题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段的 “Mars pulls us much less than the earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To stop this...” 可知,火星对我们的引力比地球小得多,我们很容易跳得过高,然后慢慢飘向太空。this指代“飞向太空”。故选A。
【25题详解】
篇章结构题。第一段总领全文;第二、三、四、五段具体讲述未来火星上的生活以及一些难题,故本文为“总—分”结构。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要介绍了作者所畅想的未来的火星生活,因此想要了解未来太空生活的人会对这篇文章感兴趣。选项D符合题意。故选D。

【29题详解】
小标题为“Write it down”指的是写下来,B选项“写下所思所想能认清自身情绪”,承接后文书写能排解内心忧虑的内容。
【30题详解】
后文“If you’re sad, just cry out. Don’t try to hide ( 隐藏) your true feelings. It’s not good for your health.”指出难过就大哭、不隐藏真实情绪,A选项“表露自身情绪”概括本段释放真实心情的中心。

How is everything going? I’m writing to share my semester with you.
Firstly, I traveled to Beijing with my parents. We visited the Great Wall and the Palace Museum. It was amazing. Secondly, I joined an English speech contest at school and won the first prize. I was very proud.
For next term, I plan to study math harder to improve my grades. In the future, I hope to become a teacher. I will work hard to make my dream come true.
What about your plan? Looking forward to your reply.

①What will our life be like in 50 years? Although we don’t know the answer, we believe that it will be very different from the life today. In the future, I think we will live on Mars. Here is what life will be like there.
②First of all, transport should be much better. Now, our spaceships (宇宙飞船) are too slow to carry lots of people to space—it takes months. However, in the future, it will take us two or three days to get to Mars by spaceship!
③Life on Mars may allow people to have more free time. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we will have more time for our hobbies.
④How about the food, water, and air people need to live? Scientists will be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air we need. However, can these plants give water to us? There is no answer now.
⑤There are also some problems for us. Mars pulls us much less than the earth does. This will be dangerous because we can easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To stop this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to put on weight. What’s more, food will look like pills (药片) and will not be as delicious as it is today. Also, space travel may make many people feel ill.
23. What will the future spaceship be like?
A. It will be much slower. B. It will become much faster.
C. It will be more expensive. D. It can carry people to any place.
24. What does the underlined word “this” refer to?
A. Flying away into space. B. Becoming much heavier.
C. Looking more beautiful. D. Eating too many pills.
25. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage?
A. B.
C. D.
26. Who may be interested in this passage?
A. Miss Xie, a traveller, who tries to fly around the world.

C. Mr Smith, a chef, who studies plants.
D. Ann, a student, who wants to learn about the future life in space.
