UNIT 2　Out of this world Ⅰ.阅读理解 A 　　（2026·江苏南通等市调研）In Morten Tyldum’s movie Passengers， characters Jim Preston and Aurora Lane are on a 120-year interstellar journey with 5，000 other people.Their destination： HomesteadⅡ， a new world to start their lives anew.To survive the travel， passengers entered hibernation （冬眠）， each one frozen in their own pod.However， something goes wrong and Jim and Aurora wake up 90 years too early.But what if we told you that hibernation for space travel is more likely to happen than the romantic story between Jim and Aurora？ 　　Hibernation is a state in which living organisms slow down their metabolic （新陈代谢的） processes while maintaining essential functions.Once inside these pods， astronauts will get drugs to adjust metabolism， reduce core temperature， and cause inactivity.Once back on Earth， they will wake up and gradually readopt their normal functional metabolism. 　　For going to Mars， astronauts would require about 30 kg of food， water， air， and other supplies per day.Thus， hibernation can significantly cut down on their essential needs.Additionally， hibernating astronauts wouldn’t get bored， stressed， or lonely， and less time and space would be needed to help keep them fit or entertained. 　　But this is merely the theory.Space agencies are investigating whether reducing body temperature and later inducing （导致） metabolism is a more practical option， while most research projects are currently focusing on animals.The question is： how can we evoke hibernation in species that are not normally doing that？ And this is why the research on rats， not naturally hibernating animals， is interesting.Research on bears is also important since their body size is more relatable to ours. 　　The concept is not being considered for the forthcoming Mars mission， but for longer missions to farther destinations such as the outer planets， it could be a very useful technology.Hibernation for humans is an ethically controversial concept， and critics may consider it as a mad scientist’s dream.However， without such dreamers， humanity would still be in the Middle Ages. 1.Why does the author mention the movie Passengers？（　　） A.To advertise a popular sci-fi space movie. B.To introduce a new approach to long spaceflights. C.To explore the possibility of settling another planet. D.To reveal the potential dangers of long space travels. 2.What happens to hibernating astronauts？（　　） A.Their functional metabolism is disturbed. B.They need more time and space for entertainment. C.They lose the balance between basic needs and supplies. D.Their physical and mental needs are reduced to a minimum. 3.What does the underlined word “evoke” in paragraph 4 mean？（　　） A.Initiate. B.Justify. C.Define. D.Prioritize. 4.What does the author think of hibernation for humans？（　　） A.It may be a risky strategy. B.It is a dream hard to realize. C.It can advance social progress. D.It challenges traditional moral values. B 　　（2026·江苏南通期中）Earth is about to gain a new “mini-moon”， but it won’t stay around for long.The newly discovered asteroid （小行星） named 2024 PT5， will temporarily be captured by Earth’s gravity and orbit our world from 29 September to 25 November， according to astronomers.Then， the space rock will return to a heliocentric orbit， which is an orbit around the sun.“The asteroid is likely about 37 feet （11 meters） in diameter （直径）， but more observations and data are needed to confirm its size，” said lead study author Carlos. 　　The space rock could be anywhere between 16 and 138 feet in diameter， potentially larger than the asteroid that entered Earth’s atmosphere over Chelyabinsk， Russia， in 2013.About 55 to 65 feet in size， the Chelyabinsk asteroid exploded in the air， releasing 20 to 30 times more energy than that of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima， Japan， and generating brightness greater than the sun. 　　But as a mini-moon， Asteroid 2024 PT5 isn’t in any danger of colliding with Earth now or over the next few decades.The space rock will orbit about 2.6 million miles away， or about 10 times the distance between Earth and the moon. 　　“Whether an asteroid gets captured by Earth is independent of its size or mass， it only depends on its speed and trajectory （轨迹） as it approaches the Earth-Moon system，” said Robert， a specialist on solar system bodies.“At any given time， there is approximately one mini-moon in the Earth-Moon system， roughly the size of a dishwasher， but they are so difficult to detect and most of them go undiscovered during the time when they remain bound to Earth.” 　　Mini-moons can also be asteroids that come from the main asteroid belt， located between Mars and Jupiter， or they may be pieces of the lunar surface launched by asteroid impacts millions of years ago.Carlos and his colleagues plan to observe 2024 PT5 to collect more data and details.“Determining where they come from could help us understand the process of crater （坑） formation and how material is forced out from the Moon’s surface，” he said. 5.What can we learn from 2024 PT5？（　　） A.The asteroid will be captured by gravity for long. B.The asteroid’s accurate size has yet to be confirmed. C.2024 PT5 has entered Earth’s atmosphere over Russia. D.2024 PT5 will stay around the Earth for about 3 months. 6.Why does 2024 PT5 cause no harm to the Earth？（　　） A.It lacks the energy to destroy the Earth. B.It is actively monitored by the specialists. C.It is smaller than the Chelyabinsk asteroid. D.Its trajectory avoids colliding with the Earth. 7.Which statement does Robert agree with？（　　） A.Many mini-moons always exist in the Earth-Moon system. B.Mini-moons are detectable due to their dishwasher size. C.Detection of mini-moons bound to Earth is challenging. D.Capture of an asteroid enjoys independence of speed. 8.Why does Carlos plan to observe 2024 PT5？（　　） A.To collect pieces of the lunar surface. B.To observe mini-moons in the asteroid belt. C.To perceive the process of crater formation. D.To understand asteroid impacts on Moon’s surface.

1.B　推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句可推知，作者提到电影《太空旅客》是为了引出下文关于太空旅行中冬眠这一话题，介绍一种长途太空飞行的新方法。 2.D　推理判断题。根据第三段可知，冬眠的宇航员基本需求会显著减少，也不会感到无聊、有压力或孤独，用于保持健康和娱乐的时间和空间也更少。由此推断，他们的身体和心理需求都被降到了最低。 3.A　词义猜测题。根据第四段最后两句可知，此处指我们如何让那些通常不冬眠的物种进入冬眠状态？由此猜测，画线词evoke意为“唤起，引起”。 4.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知，作者认为人类冬眠在伦理上有争议，批评者可能会认为这是疯狂科学家的梦想，但如果没有这样的梦想家，人类可能还处于中世纪。由此推断，作者认为人类冬眠可以推动社会进步。 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新发现的一颗名为2024 PT5的小行星。 5.B　细节理解题。根据第一段中Carlos所说可知，这颗小行星的确切大小还有待确认。 6.D　细节理解题。根据第三段可知，2024 PT5不会对地球造成伤害，是因为它的轨道避免了与地球相撞。 7.C　推理判断题。根据第四段中Robert所说的话可知，Robert指出地月系统中的小卫星体积小，很难被探测到，大多数都没有被发现。由此推断，他的观点是探测与地球绑定的小卫星是具有挑战性的。 8.C　细节理解题。根据最后一段中Carlos所说可知，Carlos计划观察2024 PT5是为了了解陨石坑形成的过程。 Ⅱ. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与妈妈一起去看日全食的经历。 9.B　根据上文可知，作者作为太空记者已经看过太多出错的情况，也就是作为观察者的经历，作者知道我们在地球上永远不能完全保证看到天体事件。 10.B　根据下文可知，对于观看日全食这件事，我和妈妈有不一样的看法，所以是两种态度冲突的旅行。 11.C　根据空后的and convinced we’d be victims of the randomness that governs the world可知，作者认为会成为主宰世界的随机性的受害者，所以是持悲观态度。 12.A　根据下文可知，作者和母亲的观点是相悖的，作者认为无序统治着世界，由此推断，妈妈认为我们会看到日食，所以是认为秩序会获胜。 13.B　根据上文可知，作者对天气持悲观态度，所以认为不能指望宇宙（即天气）来实现这件事。 14.C　根据上文以及文章末句可推知，作者从这件事中学到了一个教训，即“Mama knows best.”妈妈最了解。 15.D　根据空后的but by the time first contact ...began to clear可知，但是下午两点多的时候，城市海湾上空的云层开始散去，but表转折，所以最初天气预报很糟糕。 16.A　根据空前的concentrating into可知，太阳迅速集中成炽烈的黄色光芒。 17.D　根据下句可知，一道薄薄的白光从一个干净的黑色圆圈边缘射出，那么，就是日食开始发生了。 18.C　根据上句可知，日食发生时，天空的颜色会发生变化，可能会现出像日落一样的颜色。 19.A　根据空前的solar prominences （日珥） sticking out from the sides of the sun可知，日珥是从太阳两侧伸出的，所以是呈现微微发亮的红色和粉红色。in后面可以加颜色。 20.C　第三段最后一句描述了日食的壮观景象，此处指作者觉得像是在见证奇迹。bear witness to为固定搭配，表示“见证”。 21.D　第四段第一句提到日食开始的时间，此处指四分钟后，日食结束了。 22.B　第三段中的the clouds over the city’s bay began to clear说云层散尽，与现在云层又回来了形成前后对比。 23.A　根据第三段中的Mama knows best.以及第二段中的while my mom would have strong faith ...for the first time in our lives可知，这次妈妈的话又应验了，此处指宇宙似乎对妈妈履行了承诺。 Ⅲ. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国深蓝航天公司推出的亚轨道太空旅行预售活动。 24.scheduled　考查非谓语动词。句中已有谓语动词is said，空处应为非谓语，a suborbital space travel与schedule之间是被动关系，表示“亚轨道太空旅行被安排”，应用过去分词scheduled作后置定语。 25.competitive　考查形容词。空处应用形容词作表语，compete的形容词为competitive，意为“有竞争力的”。 26.lasting　考查非谓语动词。此处是“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”的复合结构，the entire flight time与last之间是主动关系，应用动词-ing形式lasting作宾语补足语。 27.will be　考查时态。句子表达了公司对未来安全保障的决心和计划，应用there be句型的一般将来时结构there will be。 28.stability　考查名词。空处与reliability并列作ensure的宾语，应用stable的名词形式stability，意为“稳定性”。 29.an　考查冠词。此处泛指一个紧急逃生系统，且emergency的发音以元音音素开头，应用不定冠词an。 30.which　考查定语从句。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which引导。 31.relatively　考查副词。空处修饰形容词high，应用副词relatively作状语。 32.without　考查介词。此处表示“没有严重的健康问题”，空处应用介词without。 33.to adapt　考查非谓语动词。此处表示“为了适应”，应用动词不定式作目的状语。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
