For people in China, that dream is becoming a reality. From film stars to scientists, more than 20 famous people in China have booked seats on the country’s first commercial spaceflight. The tickets are sold by a Beijing-based space startup. Each seat costs 3 million yuan. To book a seat, passengers must pay a 10% deposit (定金). That sounds like a lot, but it is much cheaper than a trip with Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which can cost up to $50 million. The company plans to send its first passengers into space by 2028. The spacecraft, called CYZ1, can carry six people who pass strict physical examinations. After launch (发射), it will separate from the rocket at about 70 kilometers above the ground. Then it will cross the Kármán Line, the widely accepted edge of space. After that, it will return safely to Earth with parachutes (降落伞). Some of the passengers include scientist Li Licheng, poet Lin Xiaoyan, and actor Huang Jingyu. In a video released by the company, one passenger said, “The world always needs a few people who are a little crazy.” · China is supporting commercial space travel more than ever. In 2025, the China National Space Administration announced a plan to give companies more access to rocket test facilities (设施). Aerospace is also listed as a key industry in China’s latest Five-Year Plan. Other Chinese companies are also joining the race. One company even sold two tickets during a livestream. Each ticket needed a 50,000— yuan deposit. Space travel may soon become possible for more people in China. Are you brave enough to join them on a trip to the stars? 1．How much should be paid to book a seat? A．3,000,000 yuan. B．80,000 yuan. C．50,000,000 yuan. D．300,000 yuan. 2．What can we learn about the space trip? A．Spacewalking is part of the trip. B．20 passengers will travel in a spacecraft. C．Passengers will cross the edge of space. D．The spacecraft will stay in space for six days. 3．Which of the following has a similar meaning to the underlined word “crazy” in paragraph 4? A．He’s crazy about football and never misses a match. B．Scientists need to be crazy enough to try new things. C．He talks to himself all day — people think he’s crazy. D．Mom will go crazy when she sees the mess you made. 4．What is the main purpose of China’s support for space travel? A．To compete with Elon Musk’s SpaceX in the global market. B．To provide more job opportunities for scientists and engineers. C．To attract more foreign tourists to China’s space-related activities. D．To promote the development of the aerospace industry as a key part. 5．According to the article, what kind of person is most likely to go on a space trip? A．Healthy and brave. B．Smart and creative. C．Famous and important. D．Clear-minded and helpful. 长难句解析 1.原句：That sounds like a lot, but it is much cheaper than a trip with Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which can cost up to $50 million. 翻译：这笔钱听起来数额巨大，但对比埃隆·马斯克旗下太空探索技术公司的太空旅行套餐，它要便宜得多，后者票价最高可达5000万美元。 句子分析：本句由but连接并列分句；much cheaper than是形容词比较级结构；句尾which can cost up to $50 million\ 是非限制性定语从句，先行词为 SpaceX，用来补充说明这家公司旅行项目的价格。 2.原句：The spacecraft, called CYZ1, can carry six people who pass strict physical examinations. 翻译：这艘名为 CYZ1 的飞船可搭载六名通过严苛体检的乘客。 句子分析：主干为The spacecraft can carry six people；called CYZ1是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰飞船；who pass strict physical examinations是限制性定语从句，先行词是 people，限定乘客的条件。 3.原句：In 2025, the China National Space Administration announced a plan to give companies more access to rocket test facilities. 翻译：2025 年，中国国家航天局公布一项方案，向企业开放更多火箭试验设施的使用权限。 句子分析：主干the China National Space Administration announced a plan；不定式短语to give companies more access to rocket test facilities作后置定语，修饰 plan；固定搭配access to sth表示 “使用 / 接触某物的权限”，是九年级重点短语。 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．D 5．A 【解析】本文主要讲述中国商业太空飞行即将成为现实，介绍了太空旅行票价、飞行器行程、参与乘客、国家航天产业扶持政策以及普通人太空游发展前景相关内容。 1．第二段指出票价信息：“Each seat costs 3 million yuan.”，预定座位需支付10%定金，计算可得预订座位需支付30万元。 2．第三段给出行程细节：“it will cross the Kármán Line, the widely accepted edge of space.”，对应选项乘客将跨越太空边界，其余内容文中均无提及。 3．第四段原句：“The world always needs a few people who are a little ‘crazy’”，此处crazy指敢于大胆探索、勇于尝试的，B选项句子里crazy词义与之一致。 4．第五段点明政策背景：“Aerospace is also listed as a key industry in China’s latest Five-Year Plan.”，表明扶持太空旅行是为推动航天产业发展，对应D选项，其余选项并非原文表述的核心目的。 5．第三段写明搭乘航天器要求：“The spacecraft, called CYZ1, can carry six people who pass strict physical examinations.”，说明参与者需要身体健康；文中同时提到敢于奔赴太空旅行的人需要勇气，对应A选项健康且勇敢。 译文 你是否幻想过在太空失重漂浮？对中国人而言，这个梦想正在成为现实。已有二十多位国内知名人士，从影视演员到科研学者，都预订了我国首次商业太空飞行的船票。 船票由北京一家航天初创企业发售，单座票价 300 万元人民币。想要预订席位，乘客需要先支付 10% 的定金。这笔费用听起来十分高昂，但远低于埃隆・马斯克旗下太空探索公司的旅行项目，后者票价最高可达五千万美元。 该企业计划在 2028 年前将首批乘客送入太空。这艘代号 CYZ1 的飞船最多可搭载六名通过全套严格体检的人员。火箭发射后，飞船会在距离地面约 70 公里的高度与箭体分离，随后飞越卡门线 —— 这条线是国际公认的太空边界。完成太空行程后，飞船将依靠降落伞平稳返回地球。 预订乘客中包含科学家李立程、诗人林晓燕以及演员黄景瑜等人。在企业发布的一段视频里，一位乘客说道：“世界总需要一些敢于怀揣疯狂梦想的人。” 如今我国对商业航天旅行的扶持力度空前。2025 年，中国国家航天局出台规划，向各类企业开放更多火箭试验配套设施；航天产业也被列入国家最新五年规划的重点发展产业。 国内其他企业也纷纷入局这场太空竞赛，有一家公司甚至在直播带货期间卖出两张太空船票，每张仅需五万元定金。或许不久之后，会有更多普通人能够实现太空旅行的梦想。你是否有勇气，踏上这场奔赴星辰的旅程？ Passage B（介绍了中国成功发射神舟二十三号载人飞船的相关情况 ） On the night of May 24, 2026, China successfully launched (发射) the Long March 2F carrier rocket carrying the Shenzhou-23 manned (载人的) spaceship from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The rocket used for this mission (任务) is no ordinary one. Named Long March 2F, it has a special nickname: the “Divine Arrow” (神箭). It is China’s first human-rated rocket, meaning it was designed specifically to carry astronauts. Since its first flight in 1999, it has made over 20 launches with a perfect success record-100% of its missions have been successful. This high level of safety is why it is trusted to carry humans into space. What makes this mission special? One of the astronauts will stay on the space station for a whole year, the longest space mission ever for a Chinese astronaut. This will help scientists learn how the human body reacts during long stays in space. Such knowledge is very important for future plans, including sending astronauts to the moon by 2030. The three astronauts of Shenzhou-23 include Commander Zhu Yangzhu, Pilot Zhang Yuanzhi, and Payload Specialist Li Jiaying. Li Jiaying is especially notable-she is the first astronaut from Hong Kong to take part in a Chinese space mission. Her presence shows that China’s space program is becoming more inclusive, bringing in talent from different parts of the country. The launch of Shenzhou-23 is another proud moment for China. It shows how far the country has come in space exploration-from the first satellite in 1970 to building its own space station, and now preparing to land on the moon in 2030. Each new mission builds on the success of those before it, taking China one step closer to the stars. 1．What do we know about the Long March 2F rocket from the passage? A．It made its first flight in 1970. B．It is mainly used to launch satellites. C．It is the biggest rocket ever built in China. D．It has a perfect record of successful launches. 2．What does the underlined word “notable” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．ordinary and common B．easy to forget C．difficult to find D．worthy of attention 3．What is special about the Shenzhou-23 mission? A．The spacecraft will land on the moon. B．One astronaut will stay in space for a whole year. C．It is the first time China has sent astronauts to space. D．It is the first mission to carry supplies to the space station. 4．What can be inferred from the passage about China’s future space plans? A．China will stop sending astronauts to space after Shenzhou-23. B．China is preparing for a manned mission to the moon by 2030. C．China will work alone and not cooperate with other countries. D．Only astronauts from Hong Kong will be chosen for future missions. 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．The Future of Space Tourism in China B．Why the Moon Is Closer Than You Think C．Shenzhou-23: Practice for a Moon Landing D．Hong Kong’s Role in China’s Space Program 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．B 4．B 5．C 【解析】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要介绍了中国成功发射神舟二十三号载人飞船的相关情况，包括运载火箭的可靠性、本次任务的特殊之处、航天员阵容，以及该任务对中国未来太空探索（如2030年登月计划）的重要意义。 1．根据第二段中的“Since its first flight in 1999, it has made over 20 launches  with a perfect success record-100% of its missions have been  successful.”（自1999年首飞以来，它已经进行了20多次发射，拥有完美的成功记录——100%的任务都取得了成功）可知，长征二号F运载火箭拥有完美的成功发射记录。 2．根据第四段划线词后的破折号解释内容“she is the first astronaut from Hong Kong to take part  in a Chinese space  mission.”（她是首位参加中国太空任务的香港宇航员）可知，这一身份非常特殊且具有历史意义，因此“notable”意为“值得注意的，显著的”，与选项D（worthy  of attention）意思相近。 3． 根据第三段中的“What makes this mission special? One of the astronauts will stay  on the space station for a whole  year...”可知，神舟二十三号任务的特殊之处在于有一名宇航员将在太空中停留一整年。 4．根据第三段中的“Such knowledge is very important for future plans, including  sending astronauts to the moon by  2030.”（这些知识对未来的计划非常重要，包括到2030年将宇航员送上月球）以及第五段中的“now preparing to land on  the moon in 2030”（现在正准备在2030年登陆月球）可以推断出，中国正在为2030年的载人登月任务做准备。 5．文章主要介绍了神舟二十三号的发射及其任务特点，并多次强调这次任务（如长达一年的太空停留测试人体反应）对未来2030年登月计划的重要积累作用。C选项“Shenzhou-23:  Practice for a Moon  Landing”（神舟二十三号：为登月做准备/实践）既点明了文章的主体对象，又概括了该任务的核心长远意义，是最合适的标题。 译文 2026 年 5 月 24 日晚，中国在酒泉卫星发射中心成功发射长征二号 F 运载火箭，火箭搭载着神舟二十三号载人飞船升空。 执行本次任务的这枚火箭绝非普通火箭。它名为长征二号 F，还有一个专属昵称 ——“神箭”。它是我国首款载人专用火箭，专门为运送航天员而研发。自 1999 年首飞至今，它已完成二十余次发射，创下百分百圆满成功的完美纪录。极高的安全性能，是它能够承载航天员奔赴太空的核心原因。 本次任务的特殊之处在哪里？乘组中的一名航天员将在空间站驻留整整一年，这也是中国航天员有史以来时长最长的太空驻留任务。这次长期驻留能帮助科学家研究人体在太空长期生活时产生的各类生理反应。相关研究成果对后续航天规划意义重大，其中就包含我国 2030 年前实现载人登月的目标。 神舟二十三号的三名航天员分别是指令长朱杨柱、驾驶员张元志与载荷专家李嘉颖。李嘉颖备受关注 —— 她是首位参与中国载人航天任务的香港航天员。她的入选，彰显中国航天事业的包容性持续提升，不断吸纳来自全国各地的优秀人才。 神舟二十三号的成功发射，是中国航天又一个值得骄傲的里程碑。它见证了我国太空探索事业的巨大进步：从 1970 年发射首颗人造卫星，到自主建成空间站，再到筹备 2030 年载人登月。每一次新任务都在前序成就的基础上更进一步，让中国离浩瀚星辰更近一步。 1、Space exploration has become one of China’s greatest achievements in recent years.（太空探索是中国近年来最伟大的成就之一。） 2、The Long March 2F rocket, nicknamed "Divine Arrow", has kept a perfect 100% success record.（昵称 “神箭” 的长征二号 F 火箭保持着百分之百圆满成功的发射纪录。） 3、Shenzhou-23 manned spaceship was launched successfully from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in 2026.（2026 年，神舟二十三号载人飞船在酒泉卫星发射中心成功发射。） 4、Li Jiaying is the first astronaut from Hong Kong to take part in China’s space mission.（李嘉颖是首位参与中国载人航天任务的香港航天员。） 5、One astronaut will stay on the space station for a full year to do scientific research.（一名航天员将在空间站驻留一整年开展科学研究。） 6、Long-time space stay helps scientists learn how human bodies change in space environment.（长期太空驻留帮助科学家研究人体在太空环境下的变化。） 7、China plans to realize manned moon landing and complete lunar exploration by the year 2030.（中国计划在 2030 年前实现载人登月，完成月球探测任务。） 8、Crossing the Kármán Line means human beings have officially entered real outer space.（飞越卡门线代表人类正式进入真正的太空。） 9、CYZ1 spacecraft can carry six qualified passengers for commercial space travel in the future.（CYZ1 飞船未来可搭载六名合格乘客开展商业太空旅行。） 10、Many famous people in China have booked seats on our country’s first commercial spaceflight.（国内许多知名人士都预订了我国首次商业太空飞行的席位。） 11、A 10% deposit is needed if you want to book a ticket of commercial space trip.（如果想要预订商业太空旅行船票，需要支付百分之十的定金。） 12、The spacecraft will return safely to Earth with the help of parachutes after space travel.（完成太空行程后，飞船会依靠降落伞安全返回地球。） 13、China’s space program is more inclusive and welcomes talents from all parts of the country.（中国航天事业更具包容性，吸纳全国各地的优秀人才。） 14、Our aerospace industry has developed greatly from the first satellite to self-built space station.（从首颗人造卫星到自主建成空间站，我国航天产业实现巨大发展。） 15、Every rocket launch carries all Chinese people’s beautiful dreams of traveling among stars.（每一次火箭升空，都承载着全体中国人遨游星辰的美好梦想。） 16、The government provides strong support for the development of commercial space travel.（国家大力扶持商业太空旅游产业的发展。） 17、Curiosity and brave spirits push humans to keep exploring the endless unknown universe.（好奇心与无畏精神推动人类不断探索浩瀚未知的宇宙。） 18、Each successful space mission lays a solid base for deeper space exploration later.（每一次圆满的航天任务，都为后续更深层次的太空探索筑牢基础。） 19、Strict physical examinations are necessary for anyone who wants to fly into space.（任何想要飞向太空的人，都必须通过严格的体检。） 20、We teenagers should hold starry dreams and work hard to take part in space exploration someday.（我们青少年应当心怀星辰梦想，努力拼搏，未来投身太空探索事业。） Passage1 （2026·四川广元·中考真题）The possibility of living on Mars is being explored after a study proved the discovery of saltwater lakes below the surface of Mars. Billions of years ago, the climate of Mars was warm and wet and had the possibility for hosting microbial (微生物的) life. Scientists are not 100 percent sure what happened to water on it. One popular general idea is solar (太阳的) wind. According to the idea, the solar wind likely blew away CO2 as well as small drops of water from air on Mars over the past billion years, leaving the planet with only 10 percent of its beginning amount of water today. It is just like when we get our skin wet and there are small drops of water on the surface, the wind will finally dry us off, and the water will be carried away. This is very likely to happen to Mars, causing the surface to become hard and dry. This discovery was made with the help of the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spaceship, which sent out radio waves to the planet’s surface. Scientists decided what material their radio waves met with. The area with the supposed bodies of water had high reflectivity (反射率), which is why scientists believe that water is stored below the surface. With temperatures as low as the average on Mars, water is supposed to be frozen. But scientists think that water on Mars is able to keep a water form because of the high level of the salt—so high that the possibility of active life surviving in such a condition is pretty low. With the salty water and an unsuitable climate, Mars is now not fit to live on. But scientists are still trying to learn more about the life forms that once possibly lived on the planet. 1．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指代) in paragraph 2? A．Earth. B．Solar surface. C．Mars. D．Microbial life. 2．Why is the human’s skin mentioned in paragraph 3? A．To explain the great influence of solar wind. B．To provide further information about Mars. C．To stress the importance of water on Mars. D．To suggest keeping skin from getting dry. 3．How did the researchers prove there is water on Mars? A．By sending out the spaceship to Mars. B．By measuring the amount of salt on Mars. C．By checking the materials collected from Mars. D．By noticing the number of reflected radio waves. 4．What do scientists think of the future living on Mars? A．Comfortable. B．Hopeful. C．Disappointed. D．Uncaring. 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The Exploration of Energy on Mars B．The Situation of Living Things on Mars C．The Explanation of The Climate on Mars D．The Discovery of Saltwater Lakes on Mars 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．B 5．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了‌火星地下咸水湖相关的科学研究与推论，研究证实火星地下存在咸水湖，数十亿年前火星曾温暖宜居，主流观点认为太阳风夺走了火星绝大多数水分，如今靠欧空局探测器的高反射率探测确认了地下储水，但高盐低温环境几乎无法留存生命，当下火星仍不适合居住。 1．根据第二段前一句“Billions of years ago, the climate of Mars was warm and wet...”可知，科学家不确定的是火星上的水发生了什么，因此代词it指代的是Mars。 2．第三段将火星表面水分流失比作风吹干湿润的皮肤（It is just like when we get our skin wet... the wind will finally dry us off），旨在通过类比生动地解释太阳风（solar wind）对火星水分流失的巨大影响，导致火星表面变得干燥。 3．根据第四段“Scientists decided what material their radio waves met with. The area with the supposed bodies of water had high reflectivity...”可知，科学家是通过发射无线电波并检测其反射率（reflected radio waves）来证明火星表面下存在水的。 4．文章最后一段“With the salty water and an unsuitable climate, Mars is now not fit to live on. But scientists are still trying to learn more about the life forms that once possibly lived on the planet.”提到火星目前不适宜居住，但科学家仍在探索火星宜居的可能性、坚持研究火星，说明对未来人类在火星居住仍抱有希望。 5．文章首段即点明主题“The possibility of living on Mars is being explored after a study proved the discovery of saltwater lakes...”，随后围绕火星咸水湖的发现、成因、探测方法及意义展开，因此“火星咸水湖的发现”是最合适的标题。 Passage2 （2026·江苏扬州·中考真题）What if things in your home—your toothbrush, books, desks, even you!—suddenly seemed weightless and began to float? This is what astronauts experience in a space station—microgravity (微重力). Even though the space station and the astronauts inside are in space, Earth’s gravity is still pulling on them, though very weak. Let’s explore the astronauts’ life in space. Though there are some challenges, life in space is a super-fun. Eating and sleeping Need to get from one place to another? Just push off a surface and glide there! Nothing stays put. Imagine turning on a tap. Water would go flying everywhere. Astronauts aren’t allowed to eat anything in the space station that creates crumbs (碎屑). Food crumbs can become a disaster if they get into equipment (设备). That’s why astronauts eat specially prepared meals. There’s no “up” or “down” in space, so astronauts sleep in sleeping bags tied to the wall. Their arms will float in front of them while they sleep. Astronauts have to keep their bodies strong. There’s less stress on bones in space, for gravity is weaker. Muscles (肌肉) aren’t used as much. Their bones and muscles grow weaker. Even astronauts’ hearts can weaken. Every astronaut has to exercise for about two hours a day. Most of the exercise equipment is specially designed to imitate the feel of gravity. Work and play Astronauts spend much of their time working. They do a lot of experiments—from space life science to new spacecraft technologies. Sometimes they do spacewalks to make repairs to the outside of the station. When they have free time, astronauts kick back by reading books and looking down at Earth. 1．According to the text, what may cause danger to the space station? A．Water in special bags. B．Very tiny food pieces. C．Specially prepared meals. D．Sleeping bags tied to the wall. 2．Which of the following should go in the empty box? A．Exercising for a strong heart. B．Moving freely. C．Dealing with space loneliness. D．Staying strong. 3．What does the text mainly talk about? A．Strange changes to astronauts’ bodies in space. B．Astronauts’ fun and challenging life in space. C．How astronauts do experiments in space environments. D．Why astronauts inside the space station can’t stay put. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．B 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了宇航员在空间站微重力环境下的生活，包括饮食、睡眠、运动和娱乐等方面的挑战与乐趣。 1．第三段提到“Food crumbs can become a disaster if they get into equipment.”，食物碎屑可能对空间站造成危险。 2．第四段提到“Every astronaut has to exercise for about two hours a day...”，本段讲太空微重力会让骨骼、肌肉、心脏变虚弱，宇航员每天必须锻炼两小时维持身体强健，因此空框处应填“Staying strong”。 3．全文围绕宇航员在太空中的生活展开，介绍了饮食、睡眠、运动和工作等方面的内容，因此主旨是宇航员在太空中有趣而充满挑战的生活。 Passage 1 （25-26九年级上·河南南阳·期末）先通读全文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 Sam has been interested in the night sky ever since he was a child. His dream was to become a (n) 1 and travel into space. He knew that spaceships are mainly 2 by electronic devices (设备) . He started by reading books and making simple electronic devices to learn 3 things worked. But many people around him 4 his goal. They thought a dream like that was too big for someone who was so 5 and young. His physics teacher once told him, “The journey to space is full of many 6 . You should be prepared to face them.” Sam took the 7 seriously. He studied hard, often 8 nights solving problems on his own. He knew that he would not succeed easily, 9 he never lost hope. When he was in high school, Sam got a 10 to join a space club. The members were planning to watch a meteor shower (流星雨) , but the event was suddenly put off because of heavy rain. Sam was 11 , but he didn’t lose heart. Instead, he watched the meteor shower on the Internet. As time passed, Sam learned how to manage science tools (工具) 12 and improved his knowledge of space science. However, years of hard work did not bring Sam success. Later, Sam wasn’t chosen.

About 600 years ago, a man called Wanhu wanted to fly to the sky with rockets. He did not succeed, but his brave try started China’s dream of space travel. After hundreds of years, this old dream is now coming true step by step. China’s space business is developing very fast. On May 24, 2026, Shenzhou-23 flew into space successfully. Three Chinese astronauts went to our Tiangong space station. This space task is quite special and different from earlier ones. First, China has its first woman astronaut from Hong Kong in this team. This is a great honor for all Chinese. Second, one of the three astronauts will live and work in the space station for a whole year. This shows China can support long-time space work now. Just five days later, on the night of May 29, good news came. The astronauts of Shenzhou-21 came back to Earth safely by Shenzhou-22. In the past, new astronauts could go to space only after the old team returned home. But now, China can change space workers in space easily. This means our space station can work all the time. From Wanhu’s brave try to today’s great space tasks, China has made big improvements in space science. Every space flight shows our country’s power.

What’s out there?” People have always looked up at the stars and wondered about space. Before the mid-20th century, most people felt traveling into space was only a dream. 1 After many tests, they succeeded in making rockets that could overcome Earth’s gravity (重力). Ever since then, human exploration (探索) of space has started. 2 China’s space program started late in the last century, but it has made great progress in a short time. China became the third country in the world to independently send humans into space in 2003. 3 It is large enough to allow astronauts to carry out many important scientific studies. More recently, Shenzhou-20 manned (载人的) spaceship was successfully sent into space on April 24th, 2025. Besides the exploration near the earth, many countries are doing some research on other planets. For example, on July 23rd, 2020, China sent Tianwen-1 to explore the surface of Mars. Planets like Mars might be safe enough for humans to live on. 4 There is still a long way for humans to go to explore space. If you are interested in space walking, go for your dream. 5 Maybe you will become one of the engineers who work on China’s space exploration. A．China has never stopped its steps exploring space. B．So far, no more progress in space has been made. C．It certainly requires a lot of hard work and a strong will. D．However, scientists made up their mind to make it come true.

F．This shows that exploring other planets could help find humanity’s (人类) future homes. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．E 4．F 5．C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人类太空探索的发展历程，重点讲述了中国航天事业的成就与意义。 1．前句交代太空旅行早年只是空想，后文讲述科研人员研制火箭突破太空探索难关。D选“However, scientists made up their mind to make it come true.”以转折衔接文意，自然引出人类圆梦太空的探索过程。 2．下文具体列举中国在载人航天、空间站建设等方面的航天成果。A项“China has never stopped its steps exploring space.”总领全段，引出后文中国航天事业的各项成就。 3．后句描述了可供宇航员开展科研的大型设施。E项“In 2022, China completely set up its own space station Tiangong.”提到的“天宫空间站”，正是后文描述的这一科研设施，前后内容直接对应，逻辑连贯。 4．前文提到中国发射天问一号探索火星，说明火星可能是人类未来的宜居地。F项“This shows that exploring other planets could help find humanity’s future homes.”承接上文对火星探索的描述，点明了探索其他行星的意义，逻辑闭环完整。 5．前句鼓励对太空探索感兴趣的人追逐梦想，后句提及有望成为航天工作者。C项“It certainly requires a lot of hard work and a strong will.”承接追梦话题，点明实现航天梦想所需的条件，上下文衔接自然。 2 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 2 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 6 Beyond Earth .太空探索 单元阅读精练 版块 语篇 题型 体裁 词数 内容简介 时文阅读 PassageA 阅读理解 记叙文 295 讲述中国商业太空飞行即将成为现实 PassageB 阅读理解 说明文 290 介绍中国成功发射神舟二十三号载人飞船的相关情况 真题示例 Passage1 阅读理解 说明文 319 介绍‌火星地下咸水湖相关的科学研究与推论 Passage2 阅读理解 说明文 285 介绍宇航员在空间站微重力环境下的生活，包括饮食、睡眠、运动和娱乐等方面的挑战与乐趣。 模拟演练 Passage1 完形填空 记叙文 295 讲述了山姆从小向往太空，梦想成为宇航员 Passage2 阅读理解 说明文 260 介绍2026年中国四大传统节日对应的科技成果 Passage3 阅读理解 说明文 245 介绍中国航天事业的发展历程 Passage4 阅读还原 说明文 215 介绍人类太空探索的发展历程，重点讲述了中国航天事业的成就与意义。 1.One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. – Neil Armstrong 个人一小步，人类一大步。—— 尼尔・阿姆斯特朗 2.The sky is never the limit of human exploration. – American Aerospace Proverb 天空永远不是人类探索的边界。—— 美国航天谚语 3.Curiosity pushes humans to travel among countless stars. – Modern Western Scientific Maxim 好奇心驱使人类穿梭于万千星辰之间。—— 现代西方科学格言 4.There are no royal roads to exploring outer space. – Global Space Industry Proverb 探索深空无坦途。—— 全球航天行业谚语 5.Failures in space tests become steps toward successful spaceflight. – Chinese Aerospace Maxim 航天试验的每一次失败，都是奔赴太空成功的阶梯。—— 中国航天格言 6.Stars are not only for watching, but also for humans to reach. – Ancient Astronomers’ Saying 星辰不止可供仰望，更值得人类奔赴抵达。—— 古代天文学家古训 7.The universe is boundless, and human exploration will never end. – ISS Official Motto 宇宙浩瀚无边，人类探索永无止境。—— 国际空间站官方格言 8.Without brave pioneers, mankind could never touch the starry sky. – World Aerospace Proverb 若无无畏先驱，人类永难触碰璀璨星河。—— 世界航天谚语 9.Persistence turns impossible space dreams into real achievements. – Old English Scientific Proverb 持之以恒，方能将遥不可及的航天梦想化为现实。—— 英国古代科学谚语 10.To study the universe is to understand ourselves deeply. – Ancient Chinese Philosophical Wisdom 观天地寰宇，方能深刻认清自我。—— 中国古代哲思 11.Every rocket launch carries the whole human race’s starry dream. – Aerospace Researchers’ Motto 每一次火箭升空，都承载全人类的星河之梦。—— 航天研究者座右铭 12.He who dares to chase the moon will finally cross the galaxy. – Ancient European Proverb 敢于追逐明月之人，终能穿越整片银河。—— 欧洲古谚语 13.Exploration unlocks all hidden secrets of the wide universe. – Ancient Greek Scientific Maxim 探索，方能解开广阔宇宙深藏的所有奥秘。—— 古希腊科学格言 14.It is never too late to explore the unknown space. – Modern Space Education Motto 探索未知太空，永远为时不晚。—— 现代航天教育座右铭 15.Learn while exploring space, and explore further with more knowledge. – Aerospace Youth Slogan 探宇中勤学，学有所得则向深空远行。—— 青少年航天标语 Passage A（中国商业太空飞行即将成为现实） Have you ever dreamed of floating in space? For people in China, that dream is becoming a reality. From film stars to scientists, more than 20 famous people in China have booked seats on the country’s first commercial spaceflight. The tickets are sold by a Beijing-based space startup. Each seat costs 3 million yuan. To book a seat, passengers must pay a 10% deposit (定金). That sounds like a lot, but it is much cheaper than a trip with Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which can cost up to $50 million. The company plans to send its first passengers into space by 2028. The spacecraft, called CYZ1, can carry six people who pass strict physical examinations. After launch (发射), it will separate from the rocket at about 70 kilometers above the ground. Then it will cross the Kármán Line, the widely accepted edge of space. After that, it will return safely to Earth with parachutes (降落伞). Some of the passengers include scientist Li Licheng, poet Lin Xiaoyan, and actor Huang Jingyu. In a video released by the company, one passenger said, “The world always needs a few people who are a little crazy.” · China is supporting commercial space travel more than ever. In 2025, the China National Space Administration announced a plan to give companies more access to rocket test facilities (设施). Aerospace is also listed as a key industry in China’s latest Five-Year Plan. Other Chinese companies are also joining the race. One company even sold two tickets during a livestream. Each ticket needed a 50,000— yuan deposit. Space travel may soon become possible for more people in China. Are you brave enough to join them on a trip to the stars? 1．How much should be paid to book a seat? A．3,000,000 yuan. B．80,000 yuan. C．50,000,000 yuan. D．300,000 yuan. 2．What can we learn about the space trip? A．Spacewalking is part of the trip. B．20 passengers will travel in a spacecraft. C．Passengers will cross the edge of space.

Passage B（介绍了中国成功发射神舟二十三号载人飞船的相关情况 ） On the night of May 24, 2026, China successfully launched (发射) the Long March 2F carrier rocket carrying the Shenzhou-23 manned (载人的) spaceship from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The rocket used for this mission (任务) is no ordinary one. Named Long March 2F, it has a special nickname: the “Divine Arrow” (神箭). It is China’s first human-rated rocket, meaning it was designed specifically to carry astronauts. Since its first flight in 1999, it has made over 20 launches with a perfect success record-100% of its missions have been successful. This high level of safety is why it is trusted to carry humans into space. What makes this mission special? One of the astronauts will stay on the space station for a whole year, the longest space mission ever for a Chinese astronaut. This will help scientists learn how the human body reacts during long stays in space. Such knowledge is very important for future plans, including sending astronauts to the moon by 2030. The three astronauts of Shenzhou-23 include Commander Zhu Yangzhu, Pilot Zhang Yuanzhi, and Payload Specialist Li Jiaying. Li Jiaying is especially notable-she is the first astronaut from Hong Kong to take part in a Chinese space mission. Her presence shows that China’s space program is becoming more inclusive, bringing in talent from different parts of the country. The launch of Shenzhou-23 is another proud moment for China. It shows how far the country has come in space exploration-from the first satellite in 1970 to building its own space station, and now preparing to land on the moon in 2030. Each new mission builds on the success of those before it, taking China one step closer to the stars. 1．What do we know about the Long March 2F rocket from the passage? A．It made its first flight in 1970. B．It is mainly used to launch satellites. C．It is the biggest rocket ever built in China. D．It has a perfect record of successful launches. 2．What does the underlined word “notable” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．ordinary and common B．easy to forget C．difficult to find D．worthy of attention 3．What is special about the Shenzhou-23 mission? A．The spacecraft will land on the moon. B．One astronaut will stay in space for a whole year. C．It is the first time China has sent astronauts to space. D．It is the first mission to carry supplies to the space station. 4．What can be inferred from the passage about China’s future space plans? A．China will stop sending astronauts to space after Shenzhou-23. B．China is preparing for a manned mission to the moon by 2030. C．China will work alone and not cooperate with other countries. D．Only astronauts from Hong Kong will be chosen for future missions. 5．What is the best title for this passage? A．The Future of Space Tourism in China B．Why the Moon Is Closer Than You Think C．Shenzhou-23: Practice for a Moon Landing D．Hong Kong’s Role in China’s Space Program 1、Space exploration has become one of China’s greatest achievements in recent years.（太空探索是中国近年来最伟大的成就之一。） 2、The Long March 2F rocket, nicknamed "Divine Arrow", has kept a perfect 100% success record.（昵称 “神箭” 的长征二号 F 火箭保持着百分之百圆满成功的发射纪录。） 3、Shenzhou-23 manned spaceship was launched successfully from Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in 2026.（2026 年，神舟二十三号载人飞船在酒泉卫星发射中心成功发射。） 4、Li Jiaying is the first astronaut from Hong Kong to take part in China’s space mission.（李嘉颖是首位参与中国载人航天任务的香港航天员。） 5、One astronaut will stay on the space station for a full year to do scientific research.（一名航天员将在空间站驻留一整年开展科学研究。） 6、Long-time space stay helps scientists learn how human bodies change in space environment.（长期太空驻留帮助科学家研究人体在太空环境下的变化。） 7、China plans to realize manned moon landing and complete lunar exploration by the year 2030.（中国计划在 2030 年前实现载人登月，完成月球探测任务。） 8、Crossing the Kármán Line means human beings have officially entered real outer space.（飞越卡门线代表人类正式进入真正的太空。） 9、CYZ1 spacecraft can carry six qualified passengers for commercial space travel in the future.（CYZ1 飞船未来可搭载六名合格乘客开展商业太空旅行。） 10、Many famous people in China have booked seats on our country’s first commercial spaceflight.（国内许多知名人士都预订了我国首次商业太空飞行的席位。） 11、A 10% deposit is needed if you want to book a ticket of commercial space trip.（如果想要预订商业太空旅行船票，需要支付百分之十的定金。） 12、The spacecraft will return safely to Earth with the help of parachutes after space travel.（完成太空行程后，飞船会依靠降落伞安全返回地球。） 13、China’s space program is more inclusive and welcomes talents from all parts of the country.（中国航天事业更具包容性，吸纳全国各地的优秀人才。） 14、Our aerospace industry has developed greatly from the first satellite to self-built space station.（从首颗人造卫星到自主建成空间站，我国航天产业实现巨大发展。） 15、Every rocket launch carries all Chinese people’s beautiful dreams of traveling among stars.（每一次火箭升空，都承载着全体中国人遨游星辰的美好梦想。） 16、The government provides strong support for the development of commercial space travel.（国家大力扶持商业太空旅游产业的发展。） 17、Curiosity and brave spirits push humans to keep exploring the endless unknown universe.（好奇心与无畏精神推动人类不断探索浩瀚未知的宇宙。） 18、Each successful space mission lays a solid base for deeper space exploration later.（每一次圆满的航天任务，都为后续更深层次的太空探索筑牢基础。） 19、Strict physical examinations are necessary for anyone who wants to fly into space.（任何想要飞向太空的人，都必须通过严格的体检。） 20、We teenagers should hold starry dreams and work hard to take part in space exploration someday.（我们青少年应当心怀星辰梦想，努力拼搏，未来投身太空探索事业。） Passage1 （2026·四川广元·中考真题）The possibility of living on Mars is being explored after a study proved the discovery of saltwater lakes below the surface of Mars. Billions of years ago, the climate of Mars was warm and wet and had the possibility for hosting microbial (微生物的) life. Scientists are not 100 percent sure what happened to water on it. One popular general idea is solar (太阳的) wind. According to the idea, the solar wind likely blew away CO2 as well as small drops of water from air on Mars over the past billion years, leaving the planet with only 10 percent of its beginning amount of water today. It is just like when we get our skin wet and there are small drops of water on the surface, the wind will finally dry us off, and the water will be carried away. This is very likely to happen to Mars, causing the surface to become hard and dry. This discovery was made with the help of the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spaceship, which sent out radio waves to the planet’s surface. Scientists decided what material their radio waves met with. The area with the supposed bodies of water had high reflectivity (反射率), which is why scientists believe that water is stored below the surface. With temperatures as low as the average on Mars, water is supposed to be frozen. But scientists think that water on Mars is able to keep a water form because of the high level of the salt—so high that the possibility of active life surviving in such a condition is pretty low. With the salty water and an unsuitable climate, Mars is now not fit to live on. But scientists are still trying to learn more about the life forms that once possibly lived on the planet. 1．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指代) in paragraph 2? A．Earth. B．Solar surface. C．Mars. D．Microbial life. 2．Why is the human’s skin mentioned in paragraph 3? A．To explain the great influence of solar wind. B．To provide further information about Mars. C．To stress the importance of water on Mars. D．To suggest keeping skin from getting dry. 3．How did the researchers prove there is water on Mars? A．By sending out the spaceship to Mars. B．By measuring the amount of salt on Mars. C．By checking the materials collected from Mars. D．By noticing the number of reflected radio waves. 4．What do scientists think of the future living on Mars? A．Comfortable. B．Hopeful. C．Disappointed. D．Uncaring. 5．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The Exploration of Energy on Mars B．The Situation of Living Things on Mars C．The Explanation of The Climate on Mars D．The Discovery of Saltwater Lakes on Mars Passage2 （2026·江苏扬州·中考真题）What if things in your home—your toothbrush, books, desks, even you!—suddenly seemed weightless and began to float? This is what astronauts experience in a space station—microgravity (微重力). Even though the space station and the astronauts inside are in space, Earth’s gravity is still pulling on them, though very weak. Let’s explore the astronauts’ life in space. Though there are some challenges, life in space is a super-fun. Eating and sleeping Need to get from one place to another? Just push off a surface and glide there! Nothing stays put. Imagine turning on a tap. Water would go flying everywhere. Astronauts aren’t allowed to eat anything in the space station that creates crumbs (碎屑). Food crumbs can become a disaster if they get into equipment (设备). That’s why astronauts eat specially prepared meals. There’s no “up” or “down” in space, so astronauts sleep in sleeping bags tied to the wall. Their arms will float in front of them while they sleep. Astronauts have to keep their bodies strong. There’s less stress on bones in space, for gravity is weaker. Muscles (肌肉) aren’t used as much. Their bones and muscles grow weaker. Even astronauts’ hearts can weaken. Every astronaut has to exercise for about two hours a day. Most of the exercise equipment is specially designed to imitate the feel of gravity. Work and play Astronauts spend much of their time working. They do a lot of experiments—from space life science to new spacecraft technologies. Sometimes they do spacewalks to make repairs to the outside of the station. When they have free time, astronauts kick back by reading books and looking down at Earth. 1．According to the text, what may cause danger to the space station? A．Water in special bags.

Passage 3 （2026·广西玉林·一模） Flying into space is a long-time dream of Chinese people. About 600 years ago, a man called Wanhu wanted to fly to the sky with rockets. He did not succeed, but his brave try started China’s dream of space travel. After hundreds of years, this old dream is now coming true step by step. China’s space business is developing very fast. On May 24, 2026, Shenzhou-23 flew into space successfully. Three Chinese astronauts went to our Tiangong space station. This space task is quite special and different from earlier ones. First, China has its first woman astronaut from Hong Kong in this team. This is a great honor for all Chinese. Second, one of the three astronauts will live and work in the space station for a whole year. This shows China can support long-time space work now. Just five days later, on the night of May 29, good news came. The astronauts of Shenzhou-21 came back to Earth safely by Shenzhou-22. In the past, new astronauts could go to space only after the old team returned home. But now, China can change space workers in space easily. This means our space station can work all the time. From Wanhu’s brave try to today’s great space tasks, China has made big improvements in space science. Every space flight shows our country’s power. We are sure China will keep making new achievements in space research. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 1．What do we know about Wanhu? A．He was a modern astronaut. B．He tried to fly to the sky with rockets.

What’s out there?” People have always looked up at the stars and wondered about space. Before the mid-20th century, most people felt traveling into space was only a dream. 1 After many tests, they succeeded in making rockets that could overcome Earth’s gravity (重力). Ever since then, human exploration (探索) of space has started. 2 China’s space program started late in the last century, but it has made great progress in a short time. China became the third country in the world to independently send humans into space in 2003. 3 It is large enough to allow astronauts to carry out many important scientific studies. More recently, Shenzhou-20 manned (载人的) spaceship was successfully sent into space on April 24th, 2025. Besides the exploration near the earth, many countries are doing some research on other planets. For example, on July 23rd, 2020, China sent Tianwen-1 to explore the surface of Mars. Planets like Mars might be safe enough for humans to live on. 4 There is still a long way for humans to go to explore space. If you are interested in space walking, go for your dream. 5 Maybe you will become one of the engineers who work on China’s space exploration. A．China has never stopped its steps exploring space. B．So far, no more progress in space has been made. C．It certainly requires a lot of hard work and a strong will. D．However, scientists made up their mind to make it come true. E．In 2022, China completely set up its own space station Tiangong. F．This shows that exploring other planets could help find humanity’s (人类) future homes. 2 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 2 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
