The radio telescope* thus appeared, and it is considered one of the greatest inventions in the twentieth century. Reber built the worlds first radio telescope in 1937. Ryle and Hewish developed radio telescope systems for the location of weak radio sources, and they shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974. A radio telescope is usually made up of:One or more antennas to collect the radio waves. Most antennas are made in the shape of a dish to collect and reflect, the radio waves to the subreflector, in the same way as a curved mirror focuses visible light to one point.A receiver and amplifier to receive the radio waves from the subreflector, and make these weak radio waves strong enough to be recorded and turned into electronic signals. To make an amplifier sensitive enough, it is usually cooled to, very low temperatures (e. g. as low as 270）.A recorder to keep a record of the electronic signals. Most radio telescopes today keep the signals to the computers memory disk for astronomers to analyze later.Radio wavelengths are much longer than those of visible light, and the radio waves from deep space are always weak. To catch Radio wavelengths are much longer than those of visible light, and the radio waves from deep space are always weak. To catch these waves, radio telescopes usually have huge antennas. The sizes of most antennas in use today are around 50 to 300 metres in diameter. The antenna of FAST in Guizhou, China, the latest and largest radio telescope in the world, is 500 metres in diameter, as large as the size of 30 football fields.To avoid interferences, and keep the telescopes sensitive, radio telescopes are built in places where there are no human radio waves or electronic signals. For example, FAST is 5 kilometres away from the closest village and 25 kilometres away from the nearest town. Radio telescopes create pictures of the sky, not in visible light, but in radio waves. This is extremely useful, because there are objects that cant be seen, objects that we wouldnt even know without radio telescopes.（1）Radio telescopes help collect _ from the universe A . lightB . objectsC . radio wavesD . visible signals（2）Most antennas of radio telescopes are made in the shape of a dish to _. A . make the antennas strong enoughB . increase the number of radio wavesC . turn radio waves into electronic signalsD . focus radio waves on the subreflector（3）The underlined word interferences in the passage refers to _. A . the noises made by villagers and animalsB . the sounds from the radios and televisionsC . the people who go to Guizhou to watch FAST workD . the radio waves and electronic signals from humans（4）What have we done with the help of radio telescopes? A . We have received pictures of deep space.B . We have discovered unknown lives in the universe.C . We have found some unknown objects in the universe.D . We have turned the radio waves from space into light.2. （10分）Dear Liz，My stay in Thailand has certainly been the experience of my lifeLife is busy and excitingBangkok is just like any other big city with a population of 10 million and heavy trafficIm very lucky because my host family is in a nice quiet area outside the cityThere are Mr. and Mrs. Phairat, their son Sanan, who is 18, the daughter Chinda, who is 16, and Grandpa and GrandmaI go to an international school with Sanan and ChindaThe school teaches about 70 percent in English，and 30 percent in Thai.
