第三部分：阅读理解
A
Air is an odorless (无气味的), invisible (看不见的) gas that surrounds the earth. It is everywhere on the planet. An “empty” drinking glass and an “empty” room, to give two examples, are not really empty. Each is filled with air. When the glass is filled with water, the water pushes the air out of the glass.
Air, as a gas, has no definite (明确的) shape, but, because it is matter, it takes up space. It is easy to prove that air is something that takes up space. Stuff a dry handkerchief into the bottom（底部） of a glass so that it will not fall out when the glass is turned upside-down. Push the upside-down glass; hold it straight into a jar of water till the glass is completely covered. When the glass is taken out of water, the handkerchief will be dry. The air inside the glass takes up space and keeps the water from coming in.
41. The writer tells us that _______.
A. the experiment is done in the laboratory
B. the experiment is done outside the room
C. the experiment is easily done
D. the experiment is carried out indoors
42. Which of the following pictures gives us the correct result?
(W—water; A—air; H—handkerchief)

China’s second manned space flight will be done by two astronauts over five days in 2005. “Shenzhou-VI will be sent into space sometime in 2005,” said Zuo Saichun, a spokesperson of the China Aerospace Science and Technology (CAST). “The spacecraft（宇宙飞船） will make new breakthroughs in China’s manned space technology.”
Unlike Shenzhou-V, a little more than a year ago (in October, 2003), the next flight will see two astronauts fly in space for five days. Their capsule (太空舱) is designed to be capable of orbiting for a whole week, the spokesperson said. “For the first time, astronauts will enter and live in the orbital module（舱） of the spacecraft to do scientific experiments,” said a statement from CAST. CAST did not say what those experiments will be.
In Shenzhou-VI, scientists have changed the spacecraft’s configuration (构形) to reduce its weight, and tried to improve the performance of on-board equipment. They have also worked to make sure of the energy supply of the spacecraft and further improve its safety. So far, scientists have worked out ways to solve problems on environmental control and life support. Shenzhou-VI will be sent into orbit atop a Long March 2F rocket.
Meanwhile, a model of the Chang’e-1 satellite is expected to be sent to orbit the moon in two years. The satellite, part of the three-stage programme, would be followed by the landing of an unmanned vehicle on the moon in the second stage by 2010 and collecting samples of lunar soil by 2020 in the final stage, according to Sun Laiyan, director of the China National Space Administration.
43. Which of the following about Shenzhou-VI is NOT true?
A. It will be sent into space in 2005.
B. It is capable of orbiting for two weeks.
C. It will be sent into orbit atop a Long March 2F rocket.
D. It will be sent into space with two astronauts.
44. According to the passage, the following problems should be solved before Shenzhou-VI is sent into space EXCEPT ______.
A. environmental control B. energy supply
C. life support D. lunar soil collecting
45. Which of the following does NOT belong to the three-stage programme?
A. Shenzhou-VI’s being sent into space.
B. A model of the Chang’e-1 satellite will be sent to orbit the moon.
C. The landing of an unmanned vehicle on the moon.
D. Collecting samples of lunar soil.
46. The passage mainly tells us ______.
A. some problems need solving before Shenzhou-VI is sent into space
B. Shenzhou-VI will be sent into space in 2005
C. what China’s space programme is
D. how China’s three-stage programme is carried out
C
Flying to the moon
Scientist wanted to know more about the moon. They thought the best way was to send men to the moon. The moon is about 384 000 kilometers away from the earth. A plane cannot fly to the moon because the air reaches only 240 kilometers away from the earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. That is a rocket.
How does a rocket fly? There is gas in the rocket. When the gas made very hot inside the rocket，it will rush out of the end of the rocket，so it can make the rocket fly up into the sky.
Rocket can fly far out into space. Rockets with men in them have been to the moon. Several rockets with men have flown to another planet much farther away than the moon. One day rockets may be able to go to any place in space.
47.Scientists can be sent to the moon by .
A.plane B.rocket C.satellite D.man-made satellite
48.The earth is about 384 000 kilometers away from the .
A.moon B.universe C.star D.sun
49.A plane cannot fly to the moon because .
A.there is no gas in the plane
B.the plane must be driven by a man
C.there is no air about 240 kilometers away from the earth
D.it is smaller than a rocket
50.The hot gas in the rocket is used for .
A.keeping the man in the rocket warm

Scientists used to explore(探测)on the surface of the ocean. Now they are exploring below the surface， too. They want to know about ocean water and the plant and animal life deep in the ocean.
In 1934 the scientist William Beebe dived 3 000 feet below the surface in a hollow steel ball. In 1935 August Piccard dived 10 330 feet. In 1960 his son Jean dived to a depth of 35 800 feet.
All these early dives were deep. But the divers could not stay down for very long. They had to come back up to the surface after a few seconds. Scientists needed to stay down longer to study life below surface. Gradually they succeeded.Cousteau，a Frenchman，was able to keep men down to a depth of 36 feet for one month and to a depth of 90 feet for a week.
Now scientists are developing even better equipment. With this new equipment，men can stay below the surface for days or even weeks. In 1962 Cousteau set up a research station 35 feet below the surface. Then，in 1964，he set up another station on the ocean floor of the Red Sea.This was the first undersea station to operate without help from the surface.
Many countries are now studying undersea living. The former Soviet Union has an undersea laboratory in the Crimean Sea.The United States has a laboratory 50 feet down on the ocean floor off the Virgin Islands. In 1970 five men lived there for two weeks. Then a team of five women scientists stayed in the laboratory. Next came other teams of men. All were there to explore the ocean depths and to make plans for the use of its resources. Scientists hope to find enough mineral，vegetable，and animal wealth there to provide food for the entire world.
51.In order to ，scientists are exploring below the surface of the ocean.
A.know about the ocean water deep in the ocean
B.stay down longer to study life of the plant and animal below the surface
C.know about the plant and animal life deep in the ocean

A.William Beebe. B.August Piccard.
C.Jean Piccard. D.Cousteau.
53.Who set up the first undersea station?
A.A Frenchman. B.An American. C.A Russian. D. no mention.
54.Which of the following statements is true?
A.The early divers could not stay down for very long.
B.Up to now only five women scientists have stayed in the undersea laboratory.
C.The purpose of setting up the undersea laboratories is to make plans for the use of the resources in the ocean.
D.None of the above is true.
55.The author wants to tell us .
A.that scientists try to explore the ocean depths
B.that scientists try to make use of resources in the ocean
C.about the secret of the plant and animal life in the ocean
