Astronauts must adapt to weightlessness. They 9 by pushing off walls. Sleeping is also difficult because they 10 to be tied down. Food in space is different too. It is prepared carefully and often 11 in packages. Astronauts have many 12 to choose from but they miss fresh food. Despite the challenges, astronauts 13 their time in space. They conduct experiments, take photos, and enjoy the beautiful 14 of Earth. Space exploration continues to 15 people around the world. 6．A．decisions B．achievements C．changes D．choices 7．A．completed B．started C．launched D．built 8．A．like B．for C．as D．with 9．A．run B．walk C．move D．jump 10．A．have B．want C．need D．like 11．A．sold B．bought C．stored D．hidden 12．A．ways B．choices C．foods D．friends 13．A．waste B．forget C．enjoy D．hate 14．A．view B．room C．star D．city 15．A．trouble B．change C．inspire D．train 【答案】 6．B 7．A 8．A 9．C 10．C 11．C 12．C 13．C 14．A 15．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国在太空探索领域的成就，重点描述了天宫空间站宇航员的太空生活细节及其对世界的激励作用。 【详解】6．句意：中国在该领域取得了许多成就。 根据“China has made many... in this area”及下文提到的天宫空间站实例，可知此处指取得的“成就”。make achievements为固定搭配，意思是“取得许多成就”，achievements“成就”符合语境；decisions“决定”、changes“改变”、choices“选择”均不符合航天事业取得成果的语境。 7．句意：它近期完工，作为宇航员的居所。 根据“serves as a home for astronauts”及下文对宇航员太空生活的描述，可知天宫空间站已完工，completed“完成、竣工”，侧重完工状态，符合空间站建成投入使用的语境；started“启动”、launched“发射”均语义不符，而built“建造”侧重施工过程，不表示完工。 8．句意：在太空生活和在地球生活不一样。 根据“not... living on Earth”可知，此处表示比较，be not like是固定搭配，意为“和……不一样”，符合语境；for/as/with均无法构成该对比含义。 9．句意：他们依靠推墙壁来移动。 根据上文“adapt to weightlessness”可知，在失重环境下无法正常跑或走，只能move“移动”；run“跑”、walk“走路”、jump“跳跃”均不符合太空失重行动方式。 10．句意：睡觉也很困难，因为他们需要把自己固定住。 need to do sth.“需要做某事”，太空失重必须固定身体，need“需要”符合语境；have to“不得不”，有不情愿的含义，不符合语境；want“想要”、like“喜欢”均语义不通。 11．句意：食物经过精细加工，通常储存在包装袋里。 根据“Food in space”及“in packages”可知，太空食物为了保鲜和便于食用，通常是“储存”(stored) 在包装中；sold“售卖”、bought“买”、hidden“隐藏”均不符合太空食品存放常识。 12．句意：宇航员有多种食物可供选择，但他们想念新鲜食物。 后文提到“but they miss fresh food.”，可知前文话题围绕太空食物，因此是多种 foods；ways“方式”、friends“朋友”、choices“选择”均脱离本段食物主题。 13．句意：尽管有诸多挑战，宇航员很享受在太空的时光。 “Despite the challenges”表示转折，后文提到做实验、拍照等积极活动，可知他们是“享受”(enjoy) 太空生活；waste“浪费”、forget“忘记”、hate“厌恶”均情感相反。 14．句意：他们做实验、拍照，欣赏地球壮丽的景色。 根据“of Earth”及从太空看地球可知，此处指地球的“景色” (view)；room“房间”、star“星星”、city“城市”均不符合俯瞰地球的语境。 15．句意：太空探索持续激励全世界的人们。 根据全文积极的基调及“Space exploration is an exciting field”可知，太空探索对人们起到“激励” (inspire) 作用；trouble“使烦恼”、change“改变”、train“训练”均语义不符。 三、阅读理解 China’s Space Achievements China has made great progress in space exploration in recent years. The Tiangong Space Station is a major achievement. It was completed recently and serves as a long-term base for astronauts. It is expected that more astronauts will be sent to the station for scientific research. The Zhurong rover is another success. It successfully landed on Mars and sent back valuable information about the planet’s surface. This mission has helped scientists learn more about Mars. The Xuntian telescope is also an important project. It will be launched to observe the universe. Unlike other telescopes, Xuntian can be maintained and upgraded more easily. These achievements show that China is becoming a leader in space exploration. They inspire young people to dream of becoming astronauts and scientists. 16．What is the Tiangong Space Station?

A．They show China is a leader in space exploration. B．They make space travel cheaper. C．They allow people to live on Mars. D．They help build more telescopes. 20．What is the main idea of the passage? A．China has made significant achievements in space exploration. B．The Tiangong Space Station is the most important project. C．Space exploration is too expensive. D．The Zhurong rover failed its mission. 【答案】16．B 17．B 18．B 19．A 20．A 【导语】本文介绍了中国近年来在太空探索领域的三项重大成就——建成天宫空间站、祝融号火星车成功探测火星、即将发射的“巡天”望远镜，并指出这些成就彰显了中国在太空探索领域的领先地位，激励年轻人投身航天与科学事业。 【详解】16．根据第一段“It was completed recently and serves as a long-term base for astronauts.”可知，天宫空间站是一个长期的太空基地。 17．根据第二段“It successfully landed on Mars and sent back valuable information about the planet’s surface.”可知，祝融号发回了火星信息。 18．根据第三段“Unlike other telescopes, Xuntian can be maintained and upgraded more easily.”与其他望远镜不同，巡天望远镜可以更容易地维护和升级。可知其特殊之处在于易于维护和升级。 19．根据第四段“These achievements show that China is becoming a leader in space exploration.”这些成就表明中国正在成为太空探索的领导者。可知，这些成就的重要性在于展示了中国的领导地位。 20．文章标题为“China’s Space Achievements”，且全文分别介绍了天宫空间站、祝融号火星车和巡天望远镜三个主要成就，旨在说明中国在太空探索领域取得了重大进展。 一、阅读理解 （2026四川广元中考） 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. 21．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指代) in paragraph 2? A．Earth. B．Solar surface. C．Mars. D．Microbial life. 22．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. 23．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. 24．What do scientists think of the future living on Mars? A．Comfortable. B．Hopeful. C．Disappointed. D．Uncaring. 25．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】21．C 22．A 23．D 24．B 25．D 【导语】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。 【详解】21．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。 22．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。 23．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。 24．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。 25．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。 $Unit 6 Beyond Earth 课时1 Section A (1a-1d) 分层作业 A组 巩固过关 C组 思维拔高 B组 能力进阶 拓展 链接中考 核心知识速记 词汇 beyond /bɪˈjɒnd/ prep.超出；在……较远的一边 mission /ˈmɪʃn/ n.任务；使命 telescope /ˈtelɪskəʊp/ n.望远镜 rover /ˈrəʊvə(r)/ n. 探测器；漫游者 manned /mænd/ adj. 载人的；需人操作的 launch /lɔːntʃ/ v.&n. 发射；发起 句型 1.

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. 21．What does the underlined word “it” refer to (指代) in paragraph 2? A．Earth.

C．To stress the importance of water on Mars. D．To suggest keeping skin from getting dry. 23．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. 24．What do scientists think of the future living on Mars? A．Comfortable. B．Hopeful. C．Disappointed. D．Uncaring. 25．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 $
