why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on earth? these are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup(基因构成) as human beings. what drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? the wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. with knowledge, we can lessen its effects.exploration also allows minerals and other potential(潜在的) resources to be found. even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. resources may be more than physical possessions. knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. the techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. we have already benefited from other spinoffs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. even nonstick pans and mirrored sunglasses are byproducts(副产品) of technological developments in the space industry!while many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. while space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. the danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive. without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.while earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. it is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.本文是一篇议论文，向我们阐述了人类进行太空探索的原因。人类的基因构成决定了人类探索其他领域包括太空的能力。人类探索太空可能暂时没有多大用处，但是在将来这可能会帮助人类生存下去。16why does the author mention the questions in paragraph 1?ato express his doubts.bto compare different ideas.cto introduce points for discussion.dto describe the conditions on earth.答案：c。推理判断题。作者在第一段提出问题目的是引出下面要讨论的话题。17what is the reason for exploring space based on paragraph 2?ahumans are natureborn to do so.bhumans have the tendency to fight.chumans may find new sources of food.dhumans dont like to stay in the same place.答案：a。细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句可知人类探索太空的原因是其基因的构成。18the underlined word “spinoffs” in paragraph 4 probably refers to _.asurvival chances bpotential resourcescunexpected benefitsdphysical possessions答案：c。词义猜测题。后面所说的“improvements in earthquake prediction，in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems”可知此处的划线短语意为“益处，好处”。19what makes it possible for humans to live on other planets?aour genetic makeup. bresources on the earth.cthe adaptive ability of humans.dbyproducts in space exploration.答案：c。细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句话可知，人类的适应能力会让人类在其他星球生存下去。20which of the statements can best sum up the passage?aspace exploration has created many wonders.bspace exploration provides the best value for money.cspace exploration can benefit science and technology.dspace exploration may help us avoid potential problems on earth.答案：d。主旨大意题。a、b两项可以容易地排除。全文主要讲的是太空探索对帮助人类生存的益处，而不是对科技的益处。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项。b“i cant tell you how pleased i am to be here. i havent seen many of you since your graduation, but i have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. i have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. although i havent appeared in person, i have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the births of your children, in my imagination.”ms. yates paused and started crying a bit. then she continued：“it was my belief that if i pushed you as hard as i could, some of you would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. regardless of our motives, i can see that you have all been successful in your chosen path.”“there is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. you have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and i want you to know i love you all from the bottom of my heart.”there was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. the clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar(呼喊). lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten english teacher from their hometown.41what activity was organized for the school reunion?asightseeing in the park.ba picnic on the school playground. ctelling stories about past events.dgraduates reports in the old building. 42. what can be inferred from paragraph 2?
